How I Install Final Cut Pro 6 on my Mac Pro with Final Cut Express 3?

Any recomendations with the data, previous edits etc?

I think he's asking about problems one might expect when installing both Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express on the same computer. I assume he's also asking if he'll be able to move files from FCE to FCP without problem. And maybe move them back?
That's my guess.

  • How to install Snow Leopard on a 2009 Mac Pro which has Mountain Lion?

    The 2009 Mac Pro that I just bought has Mountain Lion. For many reasons, I do not want to have Mountain Lion on my machine. I have been using Snow Leopard for years and I like it fine. I have my Snow Leopard install DVDs. I cannot get this machine to accept Snow Leopard, which must be just another undesirable aspect of Mountain Lion, bacause this machine must have shipped with some variant of Leopard/ Snow Leopard to begin with. Here's what happens when I put the Snow Leopard Install DVD in the Superdrive:
    1) First, I held down the "C" key at startup to start from a disc. It showed me a window which said "Mac OS X can't be installed on this computer".
    2) Then I started it with Mountain Lion and then put in the Snow Leopard DVD. Got a window which said "The disc you inserted was not readable by this computer". It also had 3 buttons to choose from: "Initialize", "Ignore" and "Eject". So I clicked on "Initialize" and Disc Utility opened on the First Aid page. I assume I'm supposed to erase the startup disc, but I thought maybe I should ask the experts here before I do that.
    This machine has two 2TB HDDs that the previous owner has configured as a level 1 RAID. If I am to erase the startup disc do I erase both drives of the RAID set? If I'm not supposed to erase the startup drive, what do I need to do to get back to Snow Leopard? Thanks and thanks again!

    The built-in checks will keep you from clobbering 10.8 Mountain Lion by Installing Snow Leopard over it (literally, 10.6 Snow Leopard Installer will see a later version in place, and knows it cannot install over a later version). So it says "Mac OS X cannot be installed on this computer..." and leaves off "... "in its current state."
    You will need to Install on a 10.6 Snow Leopard-erased drive. Mac OS X Erase function proceeds to install a Partition scheme and a default Volume after erasing, because a truly blank drive is useless for most Users.
    When you boot to the Installer DVD, you are running off the DVD, so all Hard Drives are available to be erased if that is your choice. All data on them will be discarded. If you erase one drive in a mirrored RAID set, normally the other drive would survive and the set would be degraded. But a new version of RAID was introduced right AFTER 10.6, and it is likely that 10.6 cannot read that RAID at all under any circumstances.

  • How to  install OS X Tiger on new Mac Pro

    Does anyone why you can´t install OS X Tiger on the new Mac Pro? I bought it recently and it came with Leopard of course but I really need to run Tiger because of many of my plug-ins for Protools costs a fourtune to upgrade...
    Is it possible to do it? Workaround anybody..?

    Is the hardware in the mac pro all that different than to the one shipped with Tiger???
    I don't know all the differences, but iirc, the Graphics card is a big diff.
    I have Tiger discs for a mac mini shipped just before 2008, would that work you think?
    Can only guess, but no, I don't think it would, all Tiger disks for IntelMacs are Machine specific.
    Sorry, can't help with the links, I've just read about attempts & the difficulties.

  • Can someone tell me how to install webcam isight A1023 on my mac mini with OS 10.8

    Please help me to install my webcam isight A1023 on my mac mini with OS 10.8

    All you need do is follow the instructions in the iSight User Guide (Manual) that came with your old external iSight.
    Neither your system info nor your post identify which Mac mini you use.  If your mini is a newer model that has only a Firewire 800 port, and, if you don't already have one that works, you will need a FW400-800 adapter or cable.
    Be aware of Possible Conflicts with Firewire iSight. If you encounter such problems with your mini system and cannot resolve them, you can workaround the Firewire issues by using a Mac compatible USB external camera.

  • How to Install New Internal Hard Drive on Mac Pro Laptop

    My wifes 15 in Mid 2010 lap top running 10.8.4 has run out of drive space so we bought a new 1tb drive to install. We aren't sure where to go from here. The current contents are back up on Time Machine, but we also bought a small hard drive enclosure to take out the current hard drive and put it in the small enclosure.
    So...do we install the new 1tb drive into the laptop and then try and start from the original hard drive that is now in an enclousure...then "Copy" or "Migrate" the material from the original hard drive to the new on? If so...how is that done?
    Or do we try and "Copy" or "Migrate" the hard drive materials backed up on Time Machine? If so...how do we do that?
    Thank you!

    After formatting the new hdd, while still outside the mac, make a clone of your internal disk with CarbonCopyCloner on the new (still external) disk: CCC will ask you to install the Recovery Partition also, do that, and then the clone.
    Then you eject the new drive, shutdown, and then you open the mac take the original disk out, and put the new one in.
    On the OWC and other sites you will find instructions how to do the switch. Be very careful with the connectors inside .

    I can't tell from the screenshot, but it's possible you are running in the Metro version.  Could you try this page using Internet Explorer in desktop mode to see if that helps?
    right click in the browser and click the tools button
    In the menu that appears, select "view on the desktop"
    Once IE launches in the window, do you see your Flash content?

  • How To Install Logic Pro from my Mac Pro to a new iMac?

    I read about this once but have forgotten.
    I currently have Logic Pro on my Mac Pro.Using the latest version.
    Just bought an iMac which will be here soon.
    I have the original Logic discs and the box says "Upgrade from Logic Studio or Logic Pro" on the front.
    As I remember, I will have to install all these DVDs on the new iMac, then somehow update the application to the current version online. Is this correct?
    Where does one go to do the update? App store? So confusing.
    It's like...they wanted you to register your copy of Logic when you bought it...so if you did, why don't they know you already own it and allow you to just download it to your new computer?
    Thanks for any help
    Tom

    Apple is nowhere near as small a company and unfortunately, when a company grows, these kind of requests start to come in so often that the management finds ways to obscure, redirect, or flat out refuse to provide service and help out.
    There is also the big factor that Apple may not even know the key themselves. Even if they know you bought a copy, Logic doesnt talk to the internet to verify AFAIK so there would be very little reason for them to be able to link your key to your receipt to tell you what your serial was, and I imagine they are understandably touchy about giving out new ones.
    Does your old registration login still work? I was under the impression that it would all be eaten up by the App Store.

    Ask Microsoft, there is a Mac OS X version and if it's not compatible with your machine or processor you can install Windows into Apple's BootCamp.

  • How do I get internet on both my Mac Pro and my macbook pro at the same time?

    Both are running 10.6.8 operating systems.
    There is one ethernet jack in my office. The mac pro does not have a wireless card.
    I want to use internet on my macbook pro from the mac pro. I'm thinking internet sharing through ethernet cord (ethernet cord from wall to mac pro, then second ethernet cord from mac pro to macbook pro), or via firewire. Both methods tell me on my macbook pro that I am connected to the internet but when I try to use the internet it fails.
    Is this an ip address problem? how do I change that?
    suggestions? maybe there is a better way to do this?
    Thanks!!

    Get a router.
    A Apple Airport Extreme router is easy to setup and has extra ports on the back for Ethernet to the MacPro.
    This way you'll have Wifi and can take the MacBook Pro anyplace in range and use it, instead of burning up that Firewire port and being on a leash.
    You could be having IPv6 issues with the MacBookPro if it's on a later version of OS X.
    Look under your network > Advanced TCIP and turn off IPv6, reboot.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
    BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

  • How far is it possible to upgrade a Mac Pro mid-2010 to the maximum extract.

    Hello
    How far is it possible to upgrade a Mac Pro mid-2010 to the maximum performance. I would be interested how far one could come close to the performance of the new Mac Pro 2013, or is it hopeless.
    My computer
    Mac Pro
    mid-2010
    Processor 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory 14 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
    Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB
    Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
    Please excuse my english is not the best because.

    For what apps?
    Okay, you have the slower 2.4GHz processors, most have found that MHz still rule and matter, meaning a 6-core 3.4GHz for some applications (most) was the best and the sweet spot.
    So you could upgrade to a pair of 3.2GHz 4-core (cheapest) rather than splurge on two 6-core 3.34GHz (more expensive and more cores).
    First thing to do, put the system on a 256GB Samsung 840 SSD.
    For photoshop and graphics, invest in some more SSD ($US300 for 500GB) and put those on a PCIe SSD controller ($300 Sonnet Tempo Pro) and put Aperture/Lightroom on one, and use the 2nd SSD for scratch.
    RAM: 24-32GB would probably help all but the more casusalist of user.
    Tips and articles:
    http://www.macperformanceguide.com head to the TOPICS main page and there are dozens of sections each a different area of upgrade and optimization for applications. Storage, memory, how to, use arrays, backup strategy.

  • Can't install Bootcamp on a 4,1 Mac pro

    Greetings !
    I'm trying to install bootcamp on my 4,1 Mac pro but i'm experiencing a weird issue....
    First of all, here's the summary of the machine :
    Macpro 4,1 2x2,26ghz quad core xeon, 6gb ram, intel 335 ssd plugged in the optical drive bay, and a bluray burner...Mountain Lion is 10.8.5...I removed my 2 additional cards (a decklink HD extreme and a sonnet e-sata "tempo" controller)....I added a second drive in the bay #1 (an apple seagate 250gb which was originally in the mac pro)...
    1st weird thing : my smc version is 1.39F5....I downloaded the 1.4 (which is the latest for 4,1 MP) on Apple website but it won't install, displaying "your computer doesn't need that update"...
    2nd weird thing : I succed in launching windows ( win 7 professional 64 bits edition) installation, i can then format the volume in ntfs within the installation program....BUT...After a while it copies and expands installation files, and really starts the installation (devices detection, etc)...And that's when it hurts...I can have either a BSOD with "bugcode_driver_error" , either the computer restarts and says the installation can no longer continue and I need to start all over...I have an iMac and could install windows on it without a glitch....I tried 2 differents dvd : the windows official, and an optimized (with windows updates slipstreamed inside) a friend made...No go.....I'm gonna need a bunch of softwares on windows pretty quickly for my job....
    Do you guys have any idea ? I'm starting to run off of any fresh of 'em
    Thank you a lot in advance for your help, and happy season from Paris
    Dirk

    If you bought a retail copy of Tiger & are not using it for another Mac, you do hold a Tiger OS license you could transfer to your brother legally. However, your brother still will need disks that install the PPC version of the OS for it to be installed on the G4, & for troubleshooting or some maintenance tasks. Intel-specific installer disks do not meet this requirement.
    If you can document your purchase (like if you have a receipt for it from an authorized Apple dealer or the proof-of-purchase certificates) you may be able to purchase a replacement disk through Applecare.

    H.264 video should be supported by your basic Snow Leopard operating system. The DVCPRO HD family of codecs is part of the Apple "Pro" codecs package which is normally installed as part of a "Pro" video editing suite installer or contemporaneously installed separately as part of one of the newer pro editing apps like FCPX. if you already have one of these pro suites or apps installed or available, then re-install the correct codec package that is missing. If not, you will need to purchase a Pro suite or app to be able to install the required codec package.
