FCP is not automatically connecting because of a bug in my version. I even tried updating but the data is lost. It knows that the media is offline but has lost the register to each of the media so I have to do the whole things manually. Plus its lots about 1/5th of the media completely. It things 1/5th of the project came from a file called 'clapper sound', it didn't. So I have to edit all of that back in!

Sounds like a significant pain. (but lots of practice!)

Another option is to open the FCP file in a text editor and find out where everything used to be. Then create a virtual drive with those exact locations. Then see if everything reconnects ok. But if the real error is the editing file got corrupted and replaced the file locations with 'clapper sound' then this is probably not worth it.
