If you are presented with requests for additional information, make the appropriate
selections:

Additional Items Found dialog: When you use the Media Manager to do a potentially

destructive operation, Final Cut Pro checks all currently opened projects to see if there
are any other clips that reference the same media. If so, the Additional Items Found
dialog appears.

Decide what you want to
do, then click a button.

Add: Click this button if you want to tell the Media Manager to consider additional

portions of media files referenced by other currently open projects.

Continue: Click this button to continue the Media Manager operation without taking

into consideration the additional portions of media found. This may make some clips
offline in projects outside the current one.

Abort: Click this button to stop the Media Manager operation (for example, if you

want to change your original selection).

Confirm Media Modifications dialog: If the Media Manager is going to permanently

change or delete media files, a final message appears to let you decide if you really
want to process your media files.

Decide what you want to
do, then click a button.

A progress bar displays the state of completion of your Media Manager operation. For
information on the order of operations, see

“How the Media Manager Processes Selected

Items.”

Important:

Do not switch to the Finder when the Media Manager is in the middle of

processing operations. If you do, a Relink dialog may appear when you return to
Final Cut Pro. To continue, click OK and don’t relink.

If an error occurs during the selected operation, the process stops and an error message
appears.
