Can i install final cut 4 and final cut 5 on the same machine ?

hi
i currently use fcp 5.14 on my g5 dual 2.3 (pci-x). i am starting to teach fcp at a college where they use fcp 4.5.
i know that i wont be able to prepare assignments for the students on fcp 5 'cause they wont be able to open them up on 4.5.
the system admin at the college gave me a copy of fcp 4 to install on my machine to sit next to my fcp 5.
my question is, can it be done ?
can 2 different versions of fcp exist on my machine without problems ?
do i need to install fcp 4 on a separate drive so it wont conflict with 5 ?
any thoughts on that ?
thank you very much..,

It can be done with a dual boot setup. I'll not speak to whether it should be done, other than to say it works for us.

We had to keep FCHD4.5 for awhile, so I archived 10.3.9, wiped the drive, partitioned it and re-installed 10.3.9 on one and 10.4 on another partition.
Then simply boot from different startup disk, depending on which OS you need to work on."<<

    Can I install Web Standard CS4 and Design Standard CS4 on the same machine?  My company purchased me a copy of one, and I have a personal copy of the other.  Wanted to make sure there wouldn't be any serial number problems in any case...thanks!

    Yes, but do a custom install to choose the apps to install to avoid any possibility of conflicts.

    Q. Can I have both LabVIEW 32-bit and LabVIEW 64-bit installed on the same 64-bit machine?
    A. Yes.
    The FAQ will likely answer other questions you have regarding the restrictions and issues you will have with having both versions and compiling in one vs the other.

  • Can you run Logic Pro 8 and Logic Pro X on the same machine?

    Hello all!
    Congratulations to us on the release of the new Logic Pro!
    I am still running Logic Pro 8 (and was waiting for X to come out since I knew it wasn't too far off) but am concerned over the loss of 32-bit plug-ins with Logic Pro X (the wrapping of my old VST plug-ins alone hurts!).  I've heard that installing Logic Pro X doesn't in any way gimp Logic Pro 9's usage, but can someone confirm whether or not Logic Pro X and Logic Pro 8 can operate in harmony on the same Mac?
    As a bonus, is there any reason to believe that Apple would disable earlier versions of Logic Pro (such as version 8) from running on Mavericks?
    I am planning my Logic Pro and Mac OS migrations!  Thanks!!

  • TS3280 How can i enable both paired bluetooth and ios keyboard input at the same time?

    How can i enable both paired bluetooth and ios keyboard input at the same time?
    This is needed for the app im working on. Need some user input via keypad as well as scanner input via a paired bluetooth scanner.

    You probably should not be using a keyboard bluetooth profile for a scanner, I am not a developer for apple so do not know the location for you to find out the correct profile you should be using for an input device that is not a keyboard. Sorry,
    I am sure if you navigate the apple developer site you will probaly finmd what you're looking for.

    Can I have an ATT account and a O2 account on the same Iphone? So that when I am in the UK I use the O2 sim card and in the states use my ATT sim card? I would basically have two valid authorized accounts on one Iphone.

    I don't believe that the phone would recognize the other sim card as legit. The US iPhone is locked to ATT and the UK iPhone is locked to O2.

  • How can u have lock rotation off and mute feature off at the same time

    How can u have lock rotation off and mute feature off at the same time

    Maybe this will help. The link at the bottom is the same one that was posted above.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    Hi Stan,
    I just want the user to be able to run my video clips either on a 
    computer or on a standard DVD player. It would be nice to include both 
    formats on a single disc. I am new to this and am not sure what format 
    is most widely used for standard DVD players. Thanks for your response 
    and any guidance you can give me.

    can I run one Mac version and one PC version on the same license?

    I'm specifically looking at Lightroom. Looks like I will be able to run both platforms... Now to figure out a goo file managment system if I'm editing photos on both systems.
    I travel with a PC laptop (can't afford a MAC yet) so I will do some editing on the road for posts to facebook etc. and the heavy editing on the IMAC when we get back from holiday.

  • Install 2 SAP BPC 7.0 MS SP4 in the same machine.

    Hello,
    I want to know if itu2019s possible to install 2 SAP BPC 7.0 MS SP4 in the same machine.
    I think that is impossible because the Osoft is unique and the COM+ is unique too. For the IIS and SQL I know that you can have more than one instance, but those two I know I can't.
    Please, can someone confirm this?.
    But if it's possible, how can I do this?
    Best regards.
    Pablo Mortera.

    Hi Pablo
    As per Nilanjan's post, I also don't understand why you want to do this,
    Do you want to install 2 different instances of SAP BPC on the same Windows server or possibly two seperate virtual servers on a physical host ?
    but none the less, in theory you can do it.
    You will need to create two different websites in IIS and when you do the installation make sure that you select the correct IIS web site, so that it doesnt attempt to recreate the virtual directory on the same IIS web site again during the second installation
    Kind Regards
    Daniel
