Final Cut Pro crashing when I try to export or render the video


As soon as I press the export as YouTube or Facebook video in the file menu it crashes with the attached logs. It was working fine for the previous projects and suddenly this has started happening. To fix this I have tried restarting multiple times, making space on my hard drive, updated my mac to latest including final cut pro.


Nothing worked.



Mac mini, macOS 11.4

What's this?


Try this. Create a new admin user. Log into the new user. Launch FCP, import a few clips, put them in a timeline, and try exporting.


Do you have any third party plugins that use a system installer? Reinstall them.

Okay, please provide detailed info about the project and detailed specs of the footage (post screenshots) and hopefully we can help you sort out the problem. Does this happen with all libraries or just this one? Have you tried creating a new library, bringing in just one of the clips and exporting? Have you reset the FCP preferences after each crash?

its happening with all the videos, including the one I was successfully able to export it earlier. It just suddenly started happening. The space is not an issue the library or projects are not issue. I have cleaned up the whole final cut pro reinstalled it and the problem still persists.

Did you reset preferences? Hold command and option when launching FCP, then choose delete. It will open an Untitled library. Open the library you were working on, change any prefs back to the way you like and see if the problem persists.


Did you install any 3rd party plugins?
