Blew out Final Cut registration (legit); number won't work, how do I get reset

For the second time in the last year I have upgraded my MacPro (to a newer tower), I just physically transferred my internal drives to the new tower (in a not well thought out test) and seem to have blown out my app registration (legit); how do I get my registration reset. 2nd copy of license installed on my second system, an iMac (and it's working). You'd think I'd learn, I messed up registration on last system transfer/upgrade almost a year ago; and to be honest with you i can't remember 100% how i got it reset then... but believe it was through an online support chat or a phone call, but now i can't even find a number on the Apple site that seems like the proper one.

The serial number of a Pro App is mated to the logic board of your computer on install, not the drives - so when you move the drives, FCP sees that it is not on the same machine and asks to be re-blessed.
If you have your serial numbers, you should be able to re-enter them. If you are missing your serial numbers, here is a Knowledge Base article that may help you:

  • P2 Files in FINAL CUT 5.1.4 won't work.  What should I do?

    Hello,
    I have a hard drive that has P2 files on them and Im using Final Cut 5.1.4. When I try to open the project file it gives me an error message that reads: "File's format is too new for this version of the application" and when I try to open the XML files it gives me an error message that reads "No translation templates matching the selected XML file were found. Unable to import this file."
    Is there any way to convert this into useable footage to edit in FCP 5.1.4? Also, the XML files are all about 4 to 8 MBs. Isnt there supposed to be footage in the capture scratch that the XML pulls from? There are MXF files in the video folders, but I don't have the right program to acknowledge them. What can I do?
    Thanks in advance.

    Try to open what project? Did you get a project from someone? If so, what version of FCP are they using? If it is any version later than FCP 5.1.4, you will not be able to open it. They will need to export an XML of their project as XML Version 3. And then you can import that into FCP and that should import all of their bins, clips and sequences.
    and when I try to open the XML files it gives me an error message that reads "No translation templates matching the selected XML file were found. Unable to import this file."
    In FCP, you need to open a new project, then go FILE>IMPORT>XML. And the XML that was exported needs to be v3. FCP 5 will not recognize a v4 XML.
    Also, the XML files are all about 4 to 8 MBs. Isnt there supposed to be footage in the capture scratch that the XML pulls from? There are MXF files in the video folders, but I don't have the right program to acknowledge them. What can I do?
    OK...hold on hold on hold on. Do you have the P2 media? Or some project folder? Do you have folders that contain a CONTENTS FOLDER, then inside there, 6 folders with names like VIDEO, VOICE, CLIP, PROXIE and AUDIO?
    Here is the workflow for importing and working with footage shot onto P2...for FCP 5.1:

  • Ipod unresponsive and the 5 R's won't work - how can I get it to respond?

    I think this is toughest question, and only real smart IPOD expert can handle this one.
    computer is running windows XP and I have recently downloaded iTunes 7.
    IPOD is in "disk mode". When I plug it into the computer via USB, it made the "gong" sound, so I know it is connected, but it doesn't show up on iTunes as a source.
    When I try to reset, it shows the apple and then goes to the file folder with the "!"
    I tried removing iTunes 7 and then restoring with older software but that won't work either.
    Please help!!!!

    I was able to fix mine. I went to software update and updated a few things. I did not update everything, but only what I thought were the essentials, which I believe was Safari, a security update, and a firmware update.
    Then I deleted and reinstalled Itunes yet another time. Now the itunes store is back up again.

  • I am trying out Final Cut Pro X and trying desperately to import a project from iMovie 11 (version 9.0.9). There is no export to FCPX in iMovie 11 nor is there import from iMovie in FCPX.

    Can someone please help me?
    I am trying out Final Cut Pro X on a 30 day trial. So far so good.
    I am now trying desperately to import a project from iMovie 11 (version 9.0.9) into FCPX.
    I have read multiple posts on this subject and they all recommend File/import/ from iMovie project in FCPX
    However there is NO such option under File/import in FCPX - nor is there an option to export to FCPX in iMovie 11
    Can anyone please enlighten me.

    The current version of FCPX does not work with that version of iMovie. You need version 10.0.3, which allows you to send a project to FCP.

  • All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    Do you mean that when you click the title browser, for example, nothing is there?
    Do you at least see several categories listed in the effects browser?
    First make sure that you have nothing typed into the search box (not even spaces).
    If you still see nothing, try this in order:
    1) Window->Revert to Original Layout
    2) Quit FCP X, delete preferences using Preference Manager (a free download from Digital Rebellion)
    3) Download FCS Remover, and use it to completely remove FCP X. This will NOT delete your content, just the application.
    4) Reinstall FCP X from the Mac App Store: log in with the same Apple ID that you used to buy FCP X, click on "Purchases", locate FCP X and click Install.

  • My final cut pro x update is not working?

    My final cut pro x update is not working for 10.0.3
    I'm very upset, somesone help me I'll update lastest version of FCPX.

    Then perhaps you should post your question in the FCP forums rather than the iPhone forums.

  • Serial number won't work.  What do I do?

  • Serial number won't work

    trying to install lightroom 4 on my laptop. The serial number won't work, doesn't even seem like the right number of digits.

    A Lightroom serial number should consist of 6 groups of 4 digits with no letters, for a total of 24 digits and the first four digits are 1160.   Or at least this is the pattern I see for my LR purchases over the years, where they are are individual licneses, not Educational or Team or Enterprise. 
    How and where did you buy LR?  If it was a box in a store, perhaps what you’re seeing is a redemption code that needs to be converted to a serial number using this website:

  • QT7pro license number won't work. Any ideas?

    I have a QT7pro license number purchased several years ago, now have reinstalled QT7 on W7, but license number won't work. Any ideas?

    b noir:- It's a Windows license key. Has been fine on an old XP PC, but am moving to W7, so reinstalling everything bit by bit. I paid for it, should still be able to use I reckon, even years later. I can still log in to Apple and see the order number/license number etc, but it's just listed as an invalid key when used.
    Technically I don't really need it any more, as I have other video conversion / production software, but it is useful for quick production of movies for website usage.

    Hi vincelucy,
    If you've purchased a previous version, you can download older installers from this page: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | DC, XI, X (you'll need your serial number to complete the installation).
