HT201541 Final Cut 10.0.8 about 18 months will not open since I updated to Yosemite.

I purchased Final Cut 10.0.8 about 18 months ago but now it will not open --- since I updated to Yosemite. How do I update Final Cut so I can use it again?

You download the update from the App Store using the Apple ID that was used to purchase it.
You should read up about the newer versions before you update as the application has changed substantially since then.
You can start here

I just updated my RAM and I keep getting a crash report. I have a 21.5 Inch mid 2010 imac. I also am experiencing slow load times and when I try to open Final Cut it says that quartz extreme is not compatible and that I have no VRAM even though I do.

I just updated my RAM (replaced the two 2 gig cards with two Corsair 8 gig cards) and I keep getting a crash report. I have a 21.5 Inch mid 2010 imac. I also am experiencing slow load times with Photoshop and when I try to open Final Cut it says that quartz extreme is not compatible and that I have no VRAM even though I do.
Here is the crash report:

There have been a few reports on here where Corsair RAM seems to have caused users a lot of grief with crashes.
The recommendation on here, mostly, is to only buy RAM from macsales.com or crucial.com as they guarantee their modules will work and offer a no quibble lifetime guarantee.
I'd put the original RAM back in, return the Corsair chips for a refund and re-order from one of those two companies.

Final Cut is Crashing--Will not Open

OK, I have repaired permissions, trashed preferences, unloaded all the audio plugins (mostly because they take forever when FCP opens), and finally reinstalled FCP Studio 2.
The only thing on my startup disk is OSX SL and programs. I always work off external drives. I have had this setup for some time now - since SL came out and all of a sudden FCP will not open, and I get the following Crash report. All other FCP Studio2 apps open.
I also have a recent install of Logic Studio, but FCP was working after this for a few weeks.
I have also seen this post that refers to illegal copies of FCP.
"Yes the answer is simple. The new prokit update recommended for users of FCP will DISABLE any version of FCP that might have come from a less-than-legitimate source if you know what I mean. very clever.
I got a new copy of FCP 6 and it installed and works perfectly but I won't be downloading any more apple updates unless I'm positive they don't contain any more "fixes" like this."
I have used FCP since version 1.x and have dutifully upgraded, except for the latest FCP Studio 3 upgrade. Listen, I need to use this program
Please Help!!

Shane,
Thanks!! I am aware of that software, after today. I will look into it. Is it through the FCS Maintenance Pack that I will have the ability to disable the offending plugin?
That is a bummer that it is that plugin as I wind up using that a lot for footage that is submitted by certain "monkeys" to the projects I work on. I actually call it the "Monkey Cam" filter.
In any case, I appreciate your help here. I removed the plugin from its folder and tries to open FCP and ...it crashed again. So it might be another plugin?
There was a lot more to the crash results, as I have a lot of plugins, but the board would not let me post such a long post. Would you be open to me adding this and running that too? I am not sure I want to drop the $130 or so on FCS Maintenance, and am kind of tossing around upgrading to FCS3 instead - in hopes that will fix the issue?
Let me know and I will post the remaining code. Mahalo.

Final Cut will not open up? Help

Hi all,
I have many projects on in final cut pro. I went to open it up this morning and final cut will not open. I see it trying to load and then it does not open. Can anyone please give me any ideas on what the problem might be.
Thanks,
Wildmangoose

Well, you first need to determine whether it's Final Cut that won't open, or just one project. To determine that, you can either trash the preferences or create a new user Account and log into it, then try opening Final Cut from the new Account.
If it opens, then you know FCP is OK. If you've done that with a new Account, then log in to your original Account, and take the media volume offline. I'm assuming you have all your media on a separate volume from your boot volume.
With the media volume offline, try to open that project in Final Cut. If it opens, then you have a corrupted media file, either a captured file or a rendered file.
You then then to find the corrupted file by the process of elimination. More on that later. For now, try the first step and report back.

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.

What is the cost for Final Cut Pro if I don't have a previous version to update?

What is the cost for Final Cut Pro if I don't have a previous version to update? I see the $299 price for updates.
What is the brand new purchase price?

Thanks so much. Yes I was thinking on the lines of PwnySlaystation's response.
I appreciate the help.
Will this new version run on OS 10.6.8?
Thanks for the help.

Final Cut Pro will not open

I broke it. After I did, I tried to uninstall it, but did not make a difference.
First I tried Delete User Preferences and could not find Final Cut Pro User Data under the Preferences folder. Now even com.apple.finalcutpro.plist does not exist. This is most likely because the application will not open and get to the point where it would care new User Preferences. After I uninstalled the program the registration page popped up and I re-registered so com.apple.RedFinalCutPro.plist is there, but nothing else.
So pretty much I open the program. The white box that says final cut pro and has ‘loading’ with words flashing past under it pops up. Then the words stop flashing and the white box disappears. At the same time Final Cut Pro disappears on the loading dock.
That is all I know. It is really really broken.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Not sure if this will even remotely help, but I had the same problem.
I reset my scratch disks, waveform cache, thumbnail cache, and auto save vaults, and it fixed the problem. One of my hard drives came unplugged while I was working. It threw my scratch disks all outta wack. FCP would open then close, like you said. So I shut off one of my hard drives so it would open the box that tells you your scratch disk is missing. Thats when I reset them.
I'm curious as to how you "broke it" to begin with. Maybe we can better help you if we know.
Hope you get your problem taken care.

Final cut pro will not open in maverick

After upgrading to Maverick and the latest version of Final Cut Pro X (10.1) I can't open Final Cut no more. In the dock it says: Application not responding.
I have a iMac with 3.4 GHz i7/32 GB. Please advise. Thanks.

Try remove and reinstall FCPX…

HT1338 Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

Sorry for being unclear.
When I am using the update in the App Store App, there will be a list of various applications that have updates to be installed (Final Cut Pro will be in this list). I will already be logged in with the Apple ID I use for everything (my dev account). I will be able to update all of the other various applications needing updating except for my Final Cut Pro. When I click the update button next to the FCP update, it will give me an error saying "This download is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"
I have not had any applications refunded or cancelled and this has only happened since my update to Yosemite. FCP was working fine until the upgrade. Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

I recently installed older version of Imovie and final cut pro free trial now imovie 11 wont open what do I do?

I recently installed older version of Imovie and final cut pro free trial now imovie 11 wont open what do I do?

Do you mean that the old version of iMovie (which version?) worked until you installed the FCP trial?
Note that you can only transfer projects from the latest version of iMovie (10) to FCP 10.1

Final Cut Express installed when I bought my machine will not open, can not find any upgrades

Final Cut Express installed when I bought my machine will not open, can not find any upgrades. I am working on Mac Os10.6.8.
It always worked before.

There are no upgrades to FCE any longer. Apple has discontinued the product. If you need to reinstall the version you have from the original install discs, use this app to uninstall it first: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/

My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs or so, then the machine shuts down and restarts.

My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs, then the machine shuts down and restarts. This sequence will repeat seemingly forever unless I shut it down manually.
I upgraded to Yosemite from Mountain Lion a couple months ago, skipping Maverick completely, and I've done any associated updates that Apple told me about. I don't recall which version of Yosemite I have, but I'm sure it is the "latest and greatest".
I've tried re-starting in Safe Mode / Safe Boot and that does the same thing as described above except without the endless restarts. Instead of restarting at some point, SafeBoot proceeds to the white screen and then it hangs until I restart it manually. (I've waited as long os 20-30 minutes with no response).
When I tried the option-command-p-r key combo I never get any chimes or other noises besides the original 1 time boot sound that you would expect to get when starting up a macbook pro.
I was using the mac quite normally (meaning I was doing work I normally do on it and there was no indication of anything wrong) immediately prior to this happening.
The machine is BootCamp(ed) with Windows 8.1 which I use from a VMWare virtual machine instead of natively so that I can have both OSes running at the same time. I also think this is unrelated to my problem. I have been using this setup for more than 2 years.
My upgrade to Yosemite was uneventful and I thought it went well and was very smooth. I don't want to lead attention away from Yosemite, but at this point my problem does not seem related to the upgrade.
Any help is appreciated.

Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
      the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
           because it is three times faster than wireless.
