I update to FCPX 10.6.6 this morning and it broke my 3rd party plugins (motionVFX MO2). I need them for work THIS WEEK. Backup of FCP not working and when I try to find a download of the previous version (even the trial version) only a 243 byte file downloads. How can I get back to the previous version to get my projects done?
You use FCP for work and don't have TimeMachine or other backup? You could try on fcp.co. Be very wary of download sites.
For others reading this thread, always make a zip archive of FCP (right-click and choose Compress) before upgrading so you have it in case things go sideways. Best to also duplicate the library before opening it in a new version that requires a database update, like 10.6.6. If you have updated a library, it won't open in 10.6.5 anymore, so go into your ~/Movies/Final Cut Backups/ folder and open the most recent version prior to updating.
