Working with different versions of FCP

My apologies if this is answered somewhere else but is there any way to work on a newer version of FCP then take that project to an older version?
We have 5.1 at home but the workplace has 5.0. I'd like to do some work at home and am not sure how take the project back on forth.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forum!
XML exports and imports will allow you to go back and forth with sequences. But since the crossgrade is so inexpensive, I'd suggest the office buy the latest software, so you don't waste time and effort doing this. I don't think every single aspect of what you do at home will translate completely with XML being the transfer technique.
There's a fine article written by Philip Hodgetts on the subject here: http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/xmlhodgetts.html

  • Can PI work with different versions of MQ?

    Hello
    I have requirment to let PI (7.1) communication with different versions of MQ (5.3 and 6.0). However I doubt that this is possible.
    As for MQ, the JMS drivers of the MQ needs to be deployed to PI. For MQ 5.3 and 6.0, different drivers (6.0 has additional jar files as 5.0) are to be packaged into com.sap.aii.adapter.lib.sda and deployed to PI. There is no way you can deploy different version of drivers onto the same PI box. even if you can deploy different version of hte driver to PI box, it won't work in runtime, simply because, when the driver is loaded, there is no way to tell PI class loader which version of class (driver) to load.
    how do you guys think of this?
    Thanks
    Jayson

    Hi
    I think that the 6.0 version should be backword compatible and should work with 5.3 also.
    Did you tried it?

  • Working between different versions of FCP

    Hi folks,
    I've seen some posts where this is addressed a bit, but not for the versions of FCP that I'm dealing with so I wanted to see if anyone had any insight.
    I have one of the final generation PowerPC G5s and I got FCP 5.0 (as part of FCS) when I bought the system. Somehow I missed the universal upgrade to 5.1 while it was offered (I know, I know, they offered it for like two years, I have no idea how I missed it) and so I'm maxed out at 5.0.4 because none of the newer version will run on my system.
    At the moment I have a short film I directed and cut in 5.0 and the last bit of work (color correction and dropping in the final auidio mix) was done in 5.1. I'm wondering if there is a way to open that 5.1 project in 5.0 so that I can make some additional changes.
    I've seen posts about exporting XMLs to move projects between 6.0 and 5.1, but I wasn't sure if that worked between only between those two versions
    Is there a similar method to go between 7.0 and early versions if I end up upgrading my machine?
    Any insight would be appreciated.
    Thanks in adavance,
    Avi

    You can use XML to make a version 7 project open as far back as version 4. All you need to do is choose the correct version of XML:
    FCP4 supports XML version 1 only
    FCP5 supports XML versions 1 and 2
    FCP5.1 supports XML versions 1, 2 and 3
    FCP6 supports XML versions 1, 2, 3 and 4
    FCP7 supports XML versions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

  • Virtual IE not working with different version of local IE

    I built a virtual IE9 using the template (as Novell suggests). I needed it to support a web app that is only compatible with IE9. Our environment is IE11. The main problem is that you cannot view or download any files. The IE download manager box flashes and disappears. If you're opening up any pdf or MS Office file, the new tab in IE is blank (no file is viewed). Sometimes if you download anything, it will save to local Downloads folder, but does not auto-run. Also, you cannot change the "save as" directory, nothing comes up. This only happens when running the virtual IE9 on a machine that has local IE11. If the local IE is 9, then everything works. I've also tested and noticed this happens with any version of IE, it only works when the virtual IE version matches the local IE version. Which defeats the purpose of using virtual apps if you're running it on the same environment. Has anyone had any luck with this? Thanks in advance.

    I'll throw my 2 cents in here. You may be experiencing what I did. I needed
    to have a totally isolated IE11 for school testing purposes. I soon
    discovered that the vapp of IE interacts with the local version??? Kind of
    defeats the purpose. I opened an SR and it was confirmed that this is
    expected behavior. After research I was given a document last week that
    explains how to totally isolate IE form the desktop. My requirements were to
    have the latest JAVA and flash and to absolutely not interact with the local
    version due to inconsistencies across the school systems IE installs. I made
    the new build and tested on a laptop with no flash and Java and it worked
    fine with the changes to the registry settings of the vapp. Below are the
    settings that support had me change. Not sure if you have done this but as
    for the PDF issue did you create a pdf reader SVM and add that to your vapp?
    I made a JAVA and Flash SVM and added those.
    here are the settings to make sure your IE is totally isolated.
    Isolate Host IE Add-ons
    To completely isolate all host add-ons from the virtual version of IE it is
    necessary to fully isolate the registry keys where the add-ons are
    referenced.
    Part 1: Remove the relevant keys from the IE configuration
    Delete the following registry keys (if present) from the Spoon Studio
    configuration for IE.
    - [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Ext]
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Browser
    Helper Objects]
    - [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Ext]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Explorer\Browser
    Helper Objects]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser
    Helper Objects]
    Part 2: Import the isolation registry keys
    Import the attached registry file into the configuration
    (isolate-ie-plugins.reg).
    Part 3: Set the keys to full isolation
    Set the following keys to full isolation.
    - [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Ext]
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Browser
    Helper Objects]
    - [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Ext]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Explorer\Browser
    Helper Objects]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser
    Helper Objects]
    Part 4: Build and test the IE package
    Build the Spoon Studio IE configuration and test it on a machine that has IE
    plugins installer. Verify that the plugins are not loaded.
    You need to make a reg file out of this and import it per above
    instructions. Copy and paste it into a text file then change the extension
    to .reg.
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Ext]

  • Working with previous version of FCP

    Please excuse me if this has been recently answered, as my computer has been stalling a lot as I search for an answer (that twirling thing going around and around) and I need some feedback as soon as I can.
    I have to make a trailer within the next month for my documentary, and have captured and logged some of the footage. I have recently upgraded to FCP 5.1.4 and have a Powerbook G4 with 10.4.9.
    The editor that can help me in a week has version 5.1.2, with another project already on her computer system. She is away in South America for a week but we are in email contact.
    She told me that she would have to upgrade to 5.1.4; that she does not think she use my footage that was captured using FCP 5.1.4 on her 5.1.2 FCP version, but is hesitant to dump the current project off her system. I assume that should she upgrade to 5.1.4 she could go back to the project that was being edited on 5.1.2, but what do I know.
    I don't have any sequences as yet, just some footage captured and logged onto my external FW drive, which I had planned to bring to her.
    Clearly she will be going back to the project now on her system, and I'm wondering if I will have to find another editor at this late date who has 5.1.4
    Please advise if she is correct about not being able to import my footage and edit on her system. Again, no sequences made as yet, just clips logged and captured.
    Thank you in advance!
    15" Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   1 GHz, 1 GB SDRAM, 60 GB HD

    yes, working in DV, everything captured using a SONY
    DSR-20 deck
    Good. Any media captured will fine on the other system, just import them from the Finder.
    I'm reading about XML now
    XML is perfect to send over anything from within your newer FCP project. Export XML on your end, import on the other.
    I think we'll be okay -- she can always VIEW the
    footage on my system and then we can decide which
    clips to bring into her system for the purposes of
    the trailer.
    You'll be fine. She can bring in all the clips. DV storage is cheap, better to have too much than not enough.
    again, thank you!
    You are welcome and good luck.

  • Members of the team working with different version of indesign

    Currently, all the members of DPS team in my company use Indesign 5.5.
    Up to now, Our client sent the original indesign files of paper magazine in version 5.5 or lower format. So no problem until now.
    The client want to add different magazine in DPS, so we got another bunch of Indesign files of different magazine. But we couldn't open any files because it was made from newer version of Indesign.
    So we planned one memeber of the team to upgrade Indesign CC5.5 to CCT.
    Here is the question.
    If member A uses Idesign version 5.5 and member B uses Indesign CC and they are making one magazine together, is there no problem at all?
    Thanks in advance.

    @Chris – If you stay with InDesign CC producing the folio, you should have no trouble (other than changes in text composition).
    If you want, for any reason, go back to InDesign CS5.5 through IDML, you could get into trouble:
    1.1 Some CC features are not present in CS5.5
    1.2 Text could flow differently according to changes in the text composition engines of the two versions
    2. ADPS in CC vs ADPS in CS5.5 might apply different properties (different inserted label names) to the overlays. That might mean that you will have to redo overlays in CS5.5 already finished in CC.
    I'm uncertain about this particular point. You have to test that thoroughly…
    And more: IDML will carry on the different labels (the overlay features applied to page items). You cannot clear them on an object level (other than editing the IDML or an exported IDMS). So if you do one part of the job (doing overlays) in CC, hand over the IDML to CS5.5, do some new overlays there and go back to CC, the overlays could get messed up a lot. (I cannot not test that scenario, but you should do…)
    Maybe someone from Adobe could chime in and clarify #2.

    Hi @OHIMATAS,
    I see by your post that you are unable to network the printer to the Windows XP computer, but the Windows 7 computer is connected. I can help you with this.
    Make sure the Windows XP computer is connected to the correct network name, not a Guest network either.
    Print a configuration page to get the printer's IP address.
    Printing a Configuration Page.
    Try and access the printer's Embedded Web Server on the Windows XP computer.
    Type the IP address into your web browser's address bar. (Internet Explorer)
    Did it load the webpage?
    If you can't access the printer's EWS, then check the IP address on the computer to see if the first 3 sets of numbers match the printer's IP. They have to match to be on the same network.
    Go to start, type run in the search box, type in cmd, then type ipconfig.
    Check the IPV4 address.
    Now check the IPV4 address for the printer.
    Do the first 3 sets of numbers match?
    Try and ping the printer.
    In the same window, type ping printers IP address (space between ping and IP address)
    What are the results?
    Run the add printer wizard through printers and faxes, if you were able to access the printer's EWS.
    Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
    Have a nice day!

  • Java Cache Viewer shows duplicate URL with different versions

    In doing some testing lately we have come across a couple of situations where the same URL is showing in the JAVA cache viewer with different versions to them.  In the case of a 1.7 JRE this is not causing any adverse effects however when utilizing a 1.6 JRE we are getting messages about mixed mode for the JAR files.
    The jar file is signed as below:
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.8.2
    Application-Library-Allowable-Codebase: *
    Application-Name: named_applet
    Built-By: relbuild
    Permissions: all-permissions
    Created-By: 1.6.0_17-b04 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
    Caller-Allowable-Codebase: *
    Codebase: *
    understanding the need to change the wildcard's to domains as we move forward.  I am wondering why the jar file is being listed and called twice and why it is being recognized as signed one time and not the next.
    The URL is identical in the cache viewer and the java console says it is not found in the cache when it is used the second time, even though previously in the session is finds it with the correct version.
    Any advice would be helpful

    that i even know, but the problem is that i do not have that version of java re installed, but i found distribution 07 of the same java version, i'll try it out with that.
    but when it still doesn't work, then i still would like to find the link where i can download java version 1.4.2_06.

  • Bible software with different version

    Hi all, thanks for all good work you are doing here.
    Please I want to ask: is it possible to have a parrallel bible application in my phone? I mean a bible with different versions as one application in my phone?

    Steve,
    Each web application has its own session within a J2EE container. You cannot share sessions, unless you deploy both apps as one web application which is probably not what you want. So, yes, the only work around I can think of is abandoning container-managed security so you can navigate to the other web app with some request params that cause an "auto-login" to happen.

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    Thanks Terence,
    I did get it working finally...and your last advice was what I needed.
    I am embarassed that I was an early adopter...SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER and read the problems before creating some for myself.
    This was an excercise in frustration, because of the obtuse division between the appstore and Apple Support downloads... it was a bit of a circuitous route...strange that with all the security reciepts and tracking that Apple goes to to prevent piracy... which Steve by his own admission used to build Apple...
    Why aren't the server scripts smart enough to say…”HEY DUMMY you can't use this download because you purchased the last iPhoto upgrade from the appstore...and… DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME and precious data BUDGET downloading this gargantuan file which will eat 20% of your expensive 5Gb monthly data allotment!!!…and NOT WORK…only pretend to…and then foul your system….kill your productivity and turn your hair whiter…even worse than LION did.
    I am just so antagonized by the inept scripts in recent installations that don't do a diagnostic before allowing installation that is going to corrupt things...I had less effort and frustration when I ran my ATARI with a MAC emulator...rarely lost any productivity to nonsense.
    I AM TIRED OF BETAs dressed as products...designed and rushed out for Apple toys that once were tools of the creative trade...COREL...may still have a chance at a comeback if Apple keeps pumping out toys instead of the venerable tools we once adored as income enhancers.
