FCPX Spinning wheel of death, I am stumped
FCPX (10.7.1) is lagging brutally (spinning wheel of death) and freezing almost every time I click on anything. I haven't changed anything recently, have loads of space on both internal and external hard drive, and even tried transcoding all of my footage to ProRes proxies for anything that wasn't already in ProRes. That seemed like it helped a tiny bit, but I'm still getting the rainbow wheel every 30s or so, which usually spins for about 10-20s and then usually FCPX starts responding again but also sometimes freezes up completely and I have to do a force quit.
