Final cut pro version 4.0.1 is supported on which version of Mac

I want to know
final cut pro version 4.0.1 is supported on which version of Mac.
Which compressor should I use with this Final Cut Pro version.

FCP 4.0 was the most unstable version of FCP out there. I highly recommend not using it. SO much wrong with it that I can't list it all. BUT, it only supported DV and offline RT (low res format), and then uncompressed SD and Uncompressed HD (need supporting hardware). It ran on Mac OS 10.2 and 10.3...last supported OS was 10.3. It didn't come with Compressor. Compressor was made years after that version of FCP.

  • How to I get a folder to open up in Final Cut Pro version 6 thats off my desktop?

    How do I get a folder to open up in Final Cut Pro version 6.  I'm on a MAC OS X Version 10.6.8.  The movie folders I imported on my desktop from a Lacie Rugged Triple external hard drive.   When I try to import the folder a pop up comes up that says, "ERROR: No translatin templates matching the selected XML file were found.  Unable to import this file."   When I try and drag the folder into Final Cut a pop up comes up that reads "Please choose a translation document file".  What should I do or what am I not doing?

  • What version of Quicktime is best for Final Cut Pro version 6.0.5?

    Hello,
    Could anyone tell me what version of Quicktime works best with Final Cut Pro version 6.0.5? Currently I have QT version 7.6.2.
    Unfortunately, all the clips are digitizing at 640 x 480 instead of 720 x 480 (I have trashed prefs and checked the sequence settings and Easy Setup, both are set at NTSC 720 x 480). I have also completely re-installed FCP from the original disks.
    When I digitize a clip, it digitizes at 640 x 480. When I open the clip itself and look at the properties, the "Presentation" is set to "Clean" (640 x 480) instead of "Classic" (720 x 480). It keeps defaulting to Clean, and therefore digitizing at 640x480.
    Should I uninstall QT and go back to an earlier version? If so, which one would be best? Or is there an easier way to solve this problem?
    Thank you in advance for any help. I've been struggling with this problem for over a week.

    You list Sequence settings and Easy Setup, but is there any chance your Capture Preset somehow got tweaked to NTSC 4x3 (640x480), instead of it's normal setting of DV NTSC 3x2 (720x480)
    From the extent of troubleshooting steps you've taken, this would be unlikely, but heck your Capture Preset and make sure it's correct.

  • Final Cut Pro version 5.0.4

    Hello Everyone:
    I have a question for you:
    Do you know if I can use Final Cut Pro version 5.0.4 to capture the files (video) that was shot with the new Sony HVR-Z7E video camera.
    Thanks
    Damon

    Should be able to. This looks like a standard HDV camera.

  • Final Cut Pro version 10.1.1 won't open.

    Hi All. My Final Cut Pro version 10.1.1 won't open at all. I am on mavericks. Having read quite a few threads, I have trashed preferences and also reinstalled the software but no joy. The screen flashes up with "Final Cut Pro can't be opened - error -1712" Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    I can never get past the stage of the Final Cut App logo bouncing on my desktop. The only options I have available is to force quit as the "application is not responding" 
    It's possible the alias in the Dock is corrupted.
    Drag that icon off the Dock and let it go on a blank area of the Deasktop. Poof, it should be gone.
    Go to the Applications folder and drag the FCP X icon into the Dock or start FCP X from the Application folder.
    Trashing the Preferences as suggested may help.
    Also use Disc Utitlity and repair permissions.

  • Will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

    will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

    Thanks Tom.
    So I will need  upgrade to FCP 7 first, then convert to an XML file in 6.0.6, then convert to another file that FCP X can read? I have a lot of half done projects that need finishing. Is this process very complex and time consuming?
    Maybe I should be approaching this from a different angle. The reason I am asking is that I now need to upgrade to a new Mac book pro and have been told that I cant run final cut pro 6.0.6 on the new models using maverick. Is this true?

  • Final Cut Pro version 1 and OS 9 Classic?

    Will my old copy of Final Cut Pro 1 work in the OS 9 Classic environment?
    Has anyone tried this?
    I used to run FCP 1 on a PowerMac G3 and want to run it on my Powerbook G4. I know about the updates to the new versions , but I was wondering if FCP 1 will work in the classic mode.

    Michael, if you can operate classic mode, you probably have os9.2.2 on your machine.
    open preferences and see if you have the option to change the start up os. It's on the bottom somewhere. Boot up in os 9, install FCP and see if it works.
    But whether or not FCP1 will operate in 9.2.2 is a good question. I started with 1.25 and the OS at that time was 9.04 If I remember correctly. You HAD to update to 9.2.2 if you wanted to install FCP3

  • Final Cut Pro version 6.0.5 update

    Where can I find Final Cut Pro update version 6.0.5?

    Apple pulls older updates when current ones come out so you are SOL through that venue.
    Perhaps some kind person who downloaded the stand alone installer is willing to share or you can find it on an unofficial mirror site.
    Good luck,

  • Installation of Final Cut Pro Version 2013 with OSX 10.7.5

    In 2013 I bought Final Cut Pro for my MacBook (version 2007 with OSX 10.7.5). Meanwhile I had to reinstall the hard drive and set-up the MacBook again. As there is now only the latest version available in the AppStore, I cannot install this version 10.1.4 as it is not compatible with my 10.7.5. OSX. Is there any chance to get the version 2013 (June) to install it again? Thanks for support!

    Also take a look at this doc.
    You could install a more recent OS on a separate drive or partition and run a dual boot system.

  • I need to reinstall Final Cut Pro Version 10.1.1 but can't remember the Apple ID I used to install it in 2012.  What can I do?

    For several days, I've been trying to upload Final Cut Pro but keep getting this message "restoring the window layout" but nothing happens.  Not even after 2 hours.  What have I done wrong and how can I redress this problem?

    Open your Home library (not the root library), Application Support/Final Cut Pro/Layouts. Drag the folder to the trash. Npw re-launch the app.
    Just to add…your subject line doesn't seem to  agree with the content of your post. If you can't remember your Apple ID, contact Apple.

  • Is Final Cut Pro the only software that can open video .MXF files for Macs?

    Hello,
    Many thanks in advance for your attention.
    Trying to find software that will edit .MXF Video Files to work with Mac.
    As the edit is simple, prefer iMovie, but happy if the Conversion software only works with FCExpress (or even FCPro if that is the only alternative).
    1. If it matters, .MXF (Material Exchange Format) Video files came from shooting on a Panasonic 500 P2. Originally downloaded onto a Windows system, using Adobe Premiere.
    2. I just want to see and convert some of the shots I did for my Reel, etc., but I have a Mac.
    3. I have iMovie HD, iMovie 09, and FCExpress (which I don't know how to use that well).
    4. When I attach an External HD with backup files of all the footage shot, they show up named as .MXF files. They appear as VLC files (VLC icon), but the suffix is .MXF.
    5. When I try to play them as VLC files, they won't play. It seems they start to play, but then the VLC software quits.
    6. So I have tried downloading some software on the Internet that Google says converts .MXF files.
    I tried: iSkysoft Video Converter, AVCWare Mac Video Converter, MPEG Streamclip, and a couple others. They all seem to have basically the same conversion setups, but when I click to pick one .MXF file, none of them recognize it. (The file in my Browse window is greyed out).
    7. MoyaVideo Converter for Mac recognizes the .MXF file, but when I hit the "conversion" button - I tried a couple different settings, all it seems to convert is the first frame. Even if the .MXF file says a clip is 123MB or 43 seconds long, etc.
    8. I can't even watch the clip in Preview. Press Play and it is just the first frame.
    9. I have read elsewhere in these forums, some people touting conversion software from a company in Germany - mfxformac. I am fine with paying for conversion software, but $500?
    10. And I have read elsewhere that only Final Cut Pro has a codec that will open .MXF files. If this is so, why do the above companies claim to have software that opens .MXF files for Mac?
    11. Isn't there a further problem if I can't even see the video using VLC? Or is that because I am using Mac and need FCPro with the right codec?
    Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.

    MXF files from P2 can only be imported using FCP. iMovie can't, nor FCE...if you are talking about APPLE software. Avid deals with MXF files natively. But FCP will ONLY import them if the entire P2 card structure is intact. Please tell me that you have the entire P2 card backups. If not, then it won't work. If you do...then here is the process for importing into FCP:
    P2 Workflow with FCP 6
    3. I have iMovie HD, iMovie 09, and FCExpress (which I don't know how to use that well).
    Then you need someone to provide you with QT files of this footage. None of them work with P2.
    NONE of the converters you listed will work... Sorry.
    9. I have read elsewhere in these forums, some people touting conversion software from a company in Germany - mfxformac. I am fine with paying for conversion software, but $500?
    That software is to get it to work with Final CUt Pro natively. What it doesn't do is convert the footage to QTs. There is also Raylight and Calibrated...but again, they are for FCP.
    P2 is a professional format, and to use it you need professional software. iMovie won't work...nor will FCE. If you need to work with it in those formats, you need to have someone import the files and convert them to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec).
    HD Log might work...but not sure what QT format it converts to. A demo is available.

  • HT5177 Why does Final Cut Pro X tell me mpg is supported, but wont recognize it when I try to import it from my files??!!

    I am trying to import an mpg file and Final Cut Pro X wont recognize the file.. please help.
    Final Cut Pro says it is a supported file, still wont recognize it!

    Yeah depends on the source but generally MPG hasn't ever been supported in Final Cut Pro- as Tom says you want to convert it to ProRes elsewhere before bringing into FCP X.

  • Looking for Final Cut Pro Version 6

    I'm looking to upgrade from FCP Version 5 to Version 6, but my G5 is pre-Intel. Anyone have suggestions on where to obtain FCP 6 besides just buying a new Intel G5? I would like to get a new G5, but the economy forced me to look at least upgrading as far as I can with my current G5, first.
    Thanks for any assistance!

    First of all, a G5 computer uses a Motorola processor, not an Intel.
    There's no such thing as an Intel G5.

  • Instal;ling final cut pro version 5.1

    Does any one know how to stall Final Cut Studio v 5.1 on a OS X 10.9.2. It was orginally made for a 10.7 or 10.6. when I put the installation disk in it just spits it out without opening or reading anything. please help

    When the drive just spits the disc back out, it's a "read" problem. Final Cut Studio v 5.1is a U/B so it should have no problem installing on a new Mac, but only if the disc will remain in the drive.
    Does it spit out anything else, or just this one disc?
