Can I open a Final Cut Express HD 3.5 project in Final Cut Pro 5.04?

Hello,
I've been working on a new project in Final Cut Express HD 3.5 and now want to import into my Final Cut Pro 5.04 but when I try to do so I get an error message telling me the file type is too new and non-compatible. Is there a way round this? I would have normally tried to import an XML from FCE but that does not seem to be an option.
Any help is appreciated.
Dual G5   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

if you know someone with 5.1.4 they should be able to open it then get you an XML for 5.0.4

  • Can i open mp3 in logic express?

    I want to make a remix of a track by cutting samples form it and looping certain bits etc.... is this possible in logic express?

    Hi,
    Can i open mp3 in logic express?
    When you import an MP3 file, Logic converts it into an AIFF file.
    (Logic does this because many functions, such as waveform display, sample accurate editing, and so on, would overtax the CPU if Logic had to constantly decode and re-encode the MP3 files in real time for each change or edit.)

  • Can you open a Final Cut Pro project file (6.0.6) in Final Cut Express (v4)

    I am working on a project in Final Cut Pro (v 6.0.6) and I need to pass it off to a colleague who only has Final Cut Express (v 4). The media in the project is DVNTSC.
    I went to the Apple store at the Stonestown Mall in San Francisco today and they assured me that my colleague would be able to open my FCP project file in his FCE program... but I'm skeptical.
    Can you really open a FCP project file in FCE?
    Could somebody who has both confirm this for me?
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Under very rare circumstances can you open an FCP project in FCE. It almost never works and is not supported by Apple.

  • Can I open my final cut express projects in final cut pro X?

    I need to get footage out of some of my final cut express projects and put them in final cut pro X, which I am now using. How do I do that?

    You can export any movie from FCE to Quicktime, and use it in FCP X. If you export using ProRes 422 codec it will already optimized for FCP X.
    What you can't do is use the FCE projects themselves in FCP X.

  • I can't open a Final Cut Pro 6 file in Final Cut Pro 10.  Please help!

    I am a long time user of Final Cut Pro 6.  I finished a video for a client but my computer was giving me issues because it's older and needs cleaned off so it is slow and it's affecting the video.  I downloaded Final Cut Pro 10 trial on my laptop and tried opening the file in Final Cut Pro 10. No go.  I thought that it would open because usually it isn't a problem when trying to open older files in newer programs.  I understand, however, that Final Cut Pro 10 has been re-writted so it presents a problem.  Can anyone please help me with this? 
    Thanks

    Russ has answered your question.
    What follows constitutes bully pulpitism.
    Apple has a long history of abandoning legacy software and hardware. I would be VERY careful before I bought into the the next iteration of Apple software. The real conundrum is Adobe seems bent on extracting blood from stones with its new subscription model so it becomes a choice of lessor evils. Do you pick "the next great thing" (whatever that means) from a company that you know will cut you off at the kness or do you pick something that has a high degree of stability but will bleed you over the long run? 
    Not an easy choice.

  • I can't open a final cut pro x bundle.

    Hello everyone!
    My problem is: I cannot open my final cut pro x library. When I try to open it it says:
    Fatal error.  The database at /Volumes/Старый/STOCK_source/STOCK.fcpbundle/CurrentVersion.flexolibrary is corrupted.  SQLite error code:11, 'database disk image is malformed'

    It happens to only one library. All the rest work fine.
    I've got FCPX 10.1.2.
    OS X 10.9.4
    It doesn't open the projects, when I try to open them separately (choose "show contents")

  • I can't open my Final Cut Pro anymore...

    Hi, I haven't been using final cut pro on my mac for a while and when I recently tried to open it, it didn't open and told me that "One or more of the scratch disks that I have specified does not have read/write access"... What does this mean?

    If you don't get a dialog box during start-up to reset your scratch disks as Todd mentioned.  Navigate to Users/~You~/Library/Preferences and delete the following file:
         com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
    Then navigate to Users/~You~/Library/Preferences/Final Cut Pro User Data and delete these three files:
         Final Cut Pro 6.0 Prefs
         Final Cut Pro Obj Cache
         Final Cut Pro Prof Cache
    This will reset you preferences to their defaults and hopefully get you up and running.

  • Can't open attachments in Outlook Express since using recovery DVD

    I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop on Windows xp. I had to run the product recovery dvd-rom as it was really playing up switching it self off and all kinds well thats sorted now and is back to running normal.
    The only problem now is, when i try and open an attachment in my Emails, it says this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.
    Please can any one help has I have sat here for hours and still can't find a fix.

    It seems that you have lost your file associations.
    The easiest way would be to "save as" the attachment onto a folder on the hard drive, then right click the saved file a choose "open with". From the drop down list, select the apropriate program and check the box that says "always use this program". You will have to do that for all new file extensions as they come. Good luck.
    I did a quick search on Google for third party software that would automate the process and there is plenty.
    Just type: restore file extensions.

  • I can't open Final Cut Pro x after it crushed

    I can't open anymore Final Cut Pro X after it crushed while I was editing footage for 10 minutes. Can you tell the reason and what could I do to resolve it?
    Thank you

    Maybe the Library or Project have become corrupt.
    Hold down the option key as you launch FCP X and you should be given the choice of which Library to open.
    Choose to create a new one.
    If that doesn't work try these troubleshooting strategies.
    Use this free app to trash the preferences. This should be the first thing you try when any problems occur.
             http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
    2.  With FCP X shutdown, hold down option key and select Go>Library>Application Support>Final Cut Pro  .  .  .  trash the Layouts Folder.
      3. Open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.
      4. Trash FCP X using this free app and reinstall it.
          http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/
      5. If these 3 measures don't work, create a new User Account (Admin) in System    Preferences and try running FCP X from that as it sometimes works miracles.

  • Can't open Final Cut Pro anymore. HELP!!!

    I can't open my Final Cut Pro. When I click to open it, a message comes up saying, "Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly." It tells me to click reopen to open the application, but every time I click reopen, the same message screen comes back. I can't open Final Cut. I need help.

    I am having same exact problem.
    It was working fine for years, and all of a sudden, after a Mac Os X Software Update it will NOT open, ( I think this may have caused the problem, however I am not sure)

  • Can't open a project begun by another user account

    I began a project and imported an XML file from iMovie08 -- not a bad way to go thru an initial pick-and-sort. I trimmed a bunch of clips and saved the project -- I have a second account on the computer that has an iPhoto library that I want to incorporate now. I want to switch users on the same computer and continue with the project.
    So I saved the project, switched users, and copied the .fcp file, to get the ownership/permissions right.
    Now user #2 'owns' the .fcp file but I can't 'open' it in FCE4. I get, "This project is unreadable or may be too new for this version of Final Cut." Any hints how to move between users? The video source files are on an external disk and it seems willing to share them among users.
    (Has anyone else noticed that the forum 'search' function seems to have vanished?)

    Thanks for the suggestions.
    clips: Yes, only the sequence appears in FCE. Once open in the timeline you can drag a clip into the browser if you want to save it or use it more than once.
    warnings: I followed your advice and then struggled further. Deleting the prefs and unmounting the external drive still returned the "project is unreadable..." message. If/when the files are online then the second message appears, too.
    sequences: FCE will produce a 960x540 AIC 29.97 sequence if that's what you drop into a new/empty sequence. I've made a couple of other short clips with iMovie08 XML and there was no complaint. Capturing the 960x540 format saves a ton of space and the result is better than DV conversions. iDVD, Front Row, and QT playback seem okay with the format, too.
    Primary account is still okay with this project/sequence. And the secondary account can open the original XML file from iMovie, so it's something about sharing .fcp files among users.
    Maybe I'll try to drag all of my 960x540 clips into a DV sequence and see what happens.

  • How can I open a fcp7 project in the new logic pro X?

    How can I open a final cut pro 7 project in Logic Pro X?

    What are you trying to achieve? FCP7 is a movie project format, not to mention it's years old while Logic is a music sequencer. If you try to add audio and soundtracks to a movie you'll need to export the movie file and add it as a video track (just drag and drop) to your Logic project. You may want to do your editing in Logic with a LoRes version of your movie, than export your work to a lossless audio format and put that file in your Final Cut for HiRes export. Logic Pro also supports region positions as SMPTE (e.g. in the event browser), if that helps you synchronize some events.
