Working on project on more than 1 computer

I am using Movie Edit Pro Plus 17.0.2.159 and my computer configuration is below:

Dell, Windows 10 – Home, i7 2720QM, 2.0 GHz – Processor, 12.0
GB – Memory, AMD Radeon HD6700m series- Display, ACPI x64- Based PC

I am trying to work on a project on a portable drive that was created on another computer that is also running the same software. When I try to load the project it says that the disc is either full or is not write enabled. Neither is true.

Would appreciate help.

A possible causes for this is if the external hard drive was formatted and the files written to the disc on a second computer then access may be denied due to different permissions ie user account from the first computer.

Can you access any files and open them from the external hard drive?

How much free space is there on the external hard drive?

Have you tried copying the files to your computer and opening the project in MEP?

What format are the video files?

Thank you for the response. I can confirm that both the hard drive and portable drive have plenty of space.

The file I am trying to load is a magix mvp file. It is made up of mp4 and avchd files. These files will load into a new project.

I have copied everything to my hard drive and it still won't load up.

. . . . The file I am trying to load is a magix mvp file . . . .

Are you getting any error messages such as this?

Thanks you for your help. I have spent a lot of time looking at all files and have found a

permission problem on a group of them. Fixed this and the project has loaded..

Thanks again. Ann
