Can I install Final Cut Pro on a G4 Mirror Door?

I want to know if it's possible to install FCP on a 2002/2003 G4 Mirror Door. Which version would work on this setup, and is the minimum processor requirements stated just a guideline -eg will it install and work, or just not run at all?Thanks in advance.

If your system does not meet the reqiurements it will not install at all.

I CAN'T INSTALL FINAL CUT PRO 3 ON MY NEW INTEL IMAC, HELP!!!

I'm trying to install FINAL CUT PRO 3 onto my new iMac but can't. It reads the disk but then says, "Original disk needed for install." I have the original disk, I own a registered copy of the program, so I'm stuck.

Hi -
I believe Final Cut 5 is designed to run on a Power PC CPU machine, the current MacBooks use Intel chips - so the software will not install on your Intel based MacBook.
You can, however, upgrade from a full version of Final Cut 5 to Final Cut Studio 3 which contains the latest version of FCP, version 7 as well as Compressor, Color, Soundtrack Pro and Motion for $299 which is a steal as the full version for Final Cut Studio 3 is $999.
You only need the serial number of the full version (non-academic or non-upgrade version) to do the FCS 3 upgrade - you don't need to have FCP 5 loaded on your machine to make the upgrade work.
Hope this helps.

HT4722 how many computers can i install final cut pro on

I need Final Cut Pro X for work at my church. If I buy on the app store, can I load on all three computers at the church, or do I have to buy a seperate copy for each computer?

Unless you own and control the machines, you need to buy separate copies.

I'm downloading the trial from apples website. you can't download the trial from the App Store. And I am sure it is not the connection problem. I can download other things at the same time and they work fine. I read somewhere that others had the same problem. It must be on Apple's side, but what is the problem - i can't find the answer.

Can't install Final Cut Pro 5 on a New Macbook pro

How many computers can I install final cut pro on

I have a mac book pro and a plastic mac book from 2010. I am thinking of getting a mac mini and/or a mac book pro with retina display. Will I be able to install it on all 3 computers? I read somewhere that I can install it on 10 devices. Is this true?

Yes, as long as you own or control them. How many, is something that has been discussed a lot on many discussion boards, depending on how one reads the Apple legal docs.
If you have more than 5 computers you're thinking of using FCPX on, give Apple a call and have them give you the definitive answer.

Can't Install: Final Cut Pro GREYED OUT... and no ProMediaIO.pkg file. ??

Yes, I already have Logic Installed. And, yes, I've read ALL the other posts I can find... but I don't HAVE a ProMediaIO.pkg file ANY WHERE in my system. And I KNOW how to find these things
This is maddening, and absolutely embarrassing that Apple hasn't provided a fix for this. It seems that a TON of people are having this exact same issue, but nothing I can find to solve this.
And NO, using Pacifist to hack into the file doesn't count... although I guess I'll do it if I have to :P
Any hints? Help?
tx,

What Tom said.
Alternatively, you may control-click the application and choose "Open" - this should present a dialog warning but allow you to proceed.
This should only be necessary each time you start a given application *for the first time*. In the future, a mere double-click or any other standard method of starting the application will work.

HT3696 just wondering whether i can install final cut pro in my macbook air intel corei5

just wondering whether can i install final cut pro in my macbook air wth intel corei5 64bit

yes, you can. Its on mine.
If however you plan on anything other THAN simple cuts and simple edits, youre barking up the wrong tree.
Heavy layer and graphics additions or any serious vid. edits is not the forte' or platform for the macbook Air.
see here for the details:

Can´t reinstall Final Cut pro on my Macbook without Firewire

I can't install final cut pro in my new Macbook, should it be because of no firewire port.
It says "hardware problem"

Firewire port is not required to install Final Cut Pro. Take a look at the Final Cut Studio system requirements and cross-reference it with your system specifications to discover what hardware your computer is lacking.

Installing Final Cut Pro HD

I can't install Final Cut Pro HD because apparently the installer is a power pc application no longer supported by the new mac. Has anyone figured out a way to work around this problem?

Nope- that version is not compatible with Intel Macs like your iMac. You'd need to get FCP7 or FCP X.

I am trying to install Final cut pro studio V1.0.1 (2005) on OS X lion. I get a message "You can't open the application final cut studio.mpkg because power pc application are no longer supported

I am trying to install Final cut pro 5 studio V1.0.1 (2005) on OS X lion. I get a message "You can't open the application final cut studio.mpkg because power pc application are no longer supported. My computer is New. Is their a link I can go to get tech support?

You won't find any help at tech support ... other than telling you the facts: Intel processor Macs require FCP 5.1 or higher. FCP 5.0 and earlier were written for PowerPC processor Macs, long before Apple switched to using Intel processors.
And then there's the issue of the OS. OS 7 will allow FCP 7 (and sometimes even FCP 6) to work OK, but versions earlier than that have spotty operation on Lion.
Here's a brief history of full FCP versions and recommended OS compatibility:
* = requires PPC             ** = works with both PPC and Intel                          *** = require Intel
FCP 1.0*       OS 9
FCP 2.0*       OS 9
FCP 3.0*       OS 9, OS 10.1, OS 10.2
FCP 4.0*       OS 10.2, 10.3
FCP 4.5*       OS 10.3
FCP 5.0*       OS 10.3 (OS 10.4?)
FCP 5.1**     OS 10.4, 10.5
FCP 6.0**     OS 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 (OS 10.7?)
FCP 7.0***    OS 10.6, OS 10.7
FCP-X***       OS 10.6, OS 10.7
Essentially, you have a newer Intel processor Mac with a new OS and very old, incompatible software.   You might be able to find a used version of Final Cut Studio 3 on sites like ebay or craigslist as it is no longer offered by Apple as an upgrade.
Alternatively, you could purchase and download FCP-X, but it is an entirely different application, sharing virtually nothing with previous versions of FCP.
