How to minimize Final Cut pro with one click?

I know you can minimize windows (canvas, timeline, etc) by pressing Command+M 4 times but how to minimize Final Cut pro with one click?

Hold down the Option key and click the Minimize button on any window, all windows in the app will minimize.
Don't know what or if the reverse of this is - so although it's a one click minimize all windows, I believe you have to re-enlarge them one at a time.

  • How to use Final Cut Pro with multiple user accounts?

    Hi,
    I want to use Final Cut Pro on a clean user account. How do I set it up? How can I access my old FCP library and still work on it from multiple users?
    Also, I want my DropBox account to back-up my media. Any tips?

    I use external drives as backup. But I don't trust them. And in case of fire or what ever...It is of no use...
    But I agree on your comment about DropBox. It would have been the perfect solution though.
    What else is there?
    I have a 2TB HD but these projects are huge and still growing - so I have to move my projects to several external drives. So maybe I should just work directly from external drives and skip the partition of the computers main drive? I am thinking of the disadvantage of reducing the total storage of the disk.

  • How to use Final Cut pro with external hard drive?

    I have too little space on my computer so I have to use final cut pro x with an external hard drive, but whenever I have the hard drive plugged in and Final cut going, my computer goes very slow. I just upgraded to 16gb ram... but can't seem to run FCP x while an external hard drive is plugged in. FCP just freezes up and I have to force quit.

    all the files and events in final cut are still on my internal, so my internal drive is still full.... Do I have to go and delete everything off my internal?
    In addition to the excellent advice to keep your media on an external HDD, you need to make sure that your system (boot) drive has a decent amount of free space if you want to have a satisfactory editing experience. Many people recommend not going below 20% free space. That's especially so for the boot drive, but as you fill up the external, its performance will also slow. Ideally, we would have separate media and backup drives,
    You don't need to "delete everything". Rather, you first figure out what needs to be moved. You copy those files to the other drive and then verify that all the files you copied are in two locations. At that point you can delete those files from your boot drive.
    Good luck.

  • How to update Final Cut Pro with old apple id

    I realize that I can't update apps on my Mac using Yosemite that I bought or downloaded using an old apple id.  But I paid for FCP so don't want to just trash it and re-buy it.  Any suggestions?

    Try getting back into your old Apple ID; if needed, use Apple’s iForgot service or contact the Account Security team. If neither work, click here and ask for assistance.

  • How to import MXF files to Final Cut Pro with smooth editing

    Summary: Follow this tutorial to learn how to import and edit MXF files in Final Cut Pro by converting MTS to FCP native format.
    If you have a Panasonic P2, Canon XF or Sony XDCAM series camcorder,
    you may be familiar with Material eXchange Format (MXF). Though MXF is a
    great video format to record high-definition videos, it is not easy to
    use in that they are not natively supported by most NLE systems like
    Final Cut Pro. In order to import MXF to FCP for editing, the easy workaround is to transcode MXF files to FCP compatible video formats.
    Along with some help from a top MXF Converter, it can be done. To
    help those who wanna edit MXF files in FCP without problems, here I
    share with you a simple guide on how to convert MXF files to edit in
    Final Cut Pro 6/7 or FCP X.
    First of all, downloading the App- Brorsoft MXF Converter for Mac
    Overall, the program is a professional yet easy-to-use MXF Converter
    on Mac (Mavericks included) which can not only convert XF100, Canon
    C300, XF105 and XF305, Panasonic P2 recorded MXF files, but also provide
    simple video editing functions for you. The MXF to FCP Converter not
    only can convert MXF to ProRes for FCP, but also can transcode MXF
    videos for editing in Avid MC, Adobe Premiere Pro, iMovie, FCE, etc.
    Just download it and follow the tutorial below to get the work done.
    Transcoding (P2) MXF files to ProRes for Final Cut Pro 6/7/X
    1. Import MXF files to the converter
    Launch the best MXF to FCP Converter, and then click the “add files” button to browse and import MXF videos from your camcorder or hard drive.
    2. Select FCP editable format
    Click the Format bar, and move mouse cursor to choose “Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as output format.
    Tips:
    a. Settings- click to set video
    resolution(1920×1080/1440×1080/1280×720/720×480), bitrate (from 1Mbps to
    20Mbps), frame rate (24p/30p)
    b. Editor (next to “Add” icon)- click to set deinterlace, trim, crop, add effect, attach subtitles, etc
    3. Start transcoding MXF video to FCP
    Click “Convert” button to start converting MXF files to Apple ProRes
    MOV for FCP 6/7/X under Mac OS. Once the MXF to ProRes 422 conversion
    is done, you can transfer MXF footage into Final Cut Pro (X) for editing
    smoothly on Mac with ease.

  • Does anyone know how to get final cut pro x to stop lagging?

    Does anyone know how to get final cut pro x to stop lagging?

    Two things: 1) MORE RAM.
    2) What hard drive?
    I am sorry if this sounds harsh, but the bare minimum to get decent performance out of FCP X is 8GB.
    If you mac supports more, even better - go to 12GB or 16GB.
    Also, the hard drive? Are you editing on the internal drive? That is also a bottleneck. The system drive should not also be used as a media drive; plus, depending on model, it may not be very fast drive to begin with.
    You should use an external drive with a fast enough connection - USB3 or Thunderbolt, if possible; FW800 as a distant third. USB2 may also work, albeit it is a relatively slow connection.

  • How much is Final Cut Pro x?

    I Am getting a mac in 3 weeks and I have heard IMovie is only good for small home movie projects. So I would like to get a more professional editing software. So how much is Final Cut Pro x?

    ...  and I have heard IMovie is only good for small home movie projects. .. II've never done anything professional before but I do YouTube videos, ..
    may I suggest to read professional advice for the apps, and not what's chattered around on 'boards' or 'social media'?
    all Apple Apps offer a 'Help' button, upper right in the Menu bar, which laeds to the official Manuals, e.g.
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/?lang=en
    http://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.1/
    and there're few professional, 'recommandable' posters at YouTube offering help, for FCPX I like to mention Larry Jordan, rippletraining, izzyvideo...
    You can create highly professional video with iMovie, and you can create terrible amateurish stuff with FCPX ... these are just tools.
    You get pro with your mind, not with your wallet...
    Follow Ian's advice:
    Use iMovie which comes preinstalled with your new Mac..
    It needs some time to get to the bottom of this nice tool.

  • How to uninstall final cut pro 5

    How do you do this? I have used app delete to erase the files but it didn't get them all. I know this because when I check for updates it still offers me the final cut pro updates. I have searched around but cant find an uninstaller. Help please.
    Thanks,

    Warning - This is a long post.
    How to uninstall Final Cut Pro & the other ProApps -
    There are two ways to do this. The first requires that you insert the
    install discs for each app and go through the following procedure to
    identify the installed files.
    1) Insert the disc and double click the install icon.
    2) Click to let the installer check your system
    3) After the installer opens, click File > Show Files (Command-T)
    4) Click the disclosure triangle next the the app's name to show all the
    files installed, then select all of them
    5) Choose Edit > Copy (Command-C)
    6) Open a text editor & paste the list
    7) If you have a printer connected, print
    8) Make sure you delete the file/folder in the exact location indicated
    in the list
    9) Insert the next app's install disc and repeat
    The other way involves the Terminal.
    Using Terminal:
    1) In Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder (Shift-Command-G)
    2) Enter the location /Library/Receipts/FinalCurPro.pkg/Contents
    3) Click Go to open the Contents folder
    4) Launch Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal)
    5) Enter the command lsbom -s (a lower case L, not an upper case i)
    lsbom lists each of the files inside the bill of materials. To list only
    the folders, the command would be lsbom -d.
    6) Type a space, then drag the Archive.bom file from the Finder window
    to the Terminal window.
    7) Press Return to view the list
    8) Drag to select the list in the Terminal window and choose File > Copy
    (Command-C)
    9) Open a text editor and paste the list into it. Print if you have a
    printer attached.
    10) Guided by the list, delete all the files and folders, being
    extremely careful to delete from the exact locations shown in the list.
    NOTE: The above comes from the Peachpit book Optimizing Your Final Cut
    Pro System.

    How to update final cut pro newer version?

    Do you have Final Cut Pro X? (To check, go to the menu bar and click Final Cut Pro > About). If you don't have version 10 (X) I don't think you can update it any way other than buying it from the Mac App Store, which requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later.
    It's currently $300 on the Mac App Store, which is an enormous drop from what it used to be.

  • How do I take Final Cut Pro off one computer and move it to a new one?

    I'm using Final Cut Pro Academic, and I can only run the program on one computer. If I'm getting a new computer, how do I move the program from my old computer to my new computer? Is there a way to "deauthorize" my old computer? If there is, I can't seem to find it.
    Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Excellent! Do I need to do anything to ensure the the program installs on the new computer? Do I need to make sure the computer is connected to the Internet when I uninstall the program from the old computer?

  • 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 Final Cut Pro on 2 computers with a multiple user license

    Our church purchased a multiple user copy of Final Cut Pro, and the music minister who bought it downloaded it onto his computer.  I need to get a copy onto my computer - but he doesn't know what I need to do to get a copy onto mine.  Do I have to have him log into ITunes on my computer to download it  - or is there just a file that downloaded onto his that I can get - or what?  I have seen some discussion of their being certificates for using it that he should have received - but he doesn't remember if he has anything.  Any assistance here would be appreciated - in the Final Cut Pro site it is very unclear.  Thanks in advance.

    I don't know what the procedure is to download it from Apple but you can speed things up by simply copying the FCP X  app across to your computer using either a hard drive or memory stick.
