Apple Motion 5 is pissing me off

Each time I forget to save and I playback the Timeline up to the end, it CRASHES.

Like it's trying to loop but it can't (why?) and gets stuck. I have to turn Loop Playback off or else it crashes.

Why? Why???  I want to be able to loop playback, instead of having to click constantly to reset the playhead.

And I don't want to save after every move, and I don't want to commit to a move right away, most of the times I want to micro adjust / undo / redo multiple times before I'm happy and finally hit Save.

Is it too much to ask?

FCPX Dates in the browser have turned red ... Quid?

Today as I opened FCPX, all dates - and "Projects" - in the browser have turned RED !

They were white yesterday, now crimson red. What does this mean???

... Now it's back to white - after closing re-opening FCPX. What gives???

FCPX Color Correction inactive on stills ?

Is it just me or is FCPX's (10.1.1) Color Correction inactive on still images?

Workaround is to apply an adjustment layer, but that's not very satisfying...


Update (10.1.3):

It is active, but it does not update as you do it, or it sometimes updates at random.

i.e. you apply a correction but you do not see it until .... later, like when you close and re-open the app.  That's not good.

Same thing seems to happen when you reframe a still.  Looks like it's not doing anything, but then later... it gets updated.

Update (10.1.4):

Same as previous version.


Are stills CC / Reframing behaving properly in your projects?
