Simple Fix to ‘Final Cut Pro Quit Unexpectedly’ (Version X 10.2.1)

Final Cut Pro is one of the best preferred video editing software for Mac users. The animations, transitions and the plugins that are available for this software helps us make professional videos with best of class effects.

The solution that I am sharing with you today is what I have faced recently on my new Mac running on OSX El Captain v10.11.5. I’ve tried many advanced tricks but a simple trick at last saved my day. So, I thought this simple trick could come to use for you and it is as shared below.

Step 1: Close the running final Cut Pro application and make sure it isn’t running in the background.

Step 2: Go to Finder > ~/Library/Application Support/ and find the com.apple.finalcutpro.plist and com.apple.finacut.plist folders and trash them.

Step 3: Go to Finder > ~/Movies directory. You will find several folders in there. Go to each folder and remove the broken plugins if you found any.

Step 4: Now uninstall the application by moving it to the trash

Step 5: Reinstall it again

Step 6: Open the app now. If it still shows the same ‘Final Cut Pro Quit Unexpectedly’ error, press and hold ALT+COMMAND keys while opening the application (Run Final Cut Pro from Applications folder this time instead of from launcher).

Holding ALT+COMMAND while running the application will ask you to reset the preferences for Final Cut Pro X 10.2.1. Choose to Reset. Then your application runs without closing.

That’s it! Comment below and let me know if it worked for you too.
