Can't install FCP on my new MacBook Pro

I just realize that I can't install FCP on my brand new Macbook Pro. Does anyone knows of any solution that would let me install FCP. According to the notes FCP will not install on Intel Core Processors.

It would be useful if you -
A. told us what version of FCP/FCS you are trying to install
B. told us the error messages you received
In the meantime, Final Cut Pro 5.0 and earlier are not supported on intel macs. Time to upgrade. If you have a regular retail version of FCP, the upgrade price is $299. Academic and Not For Resale versions do not qualify for the upgrade.

  • Can't install windows 8 on new macbook pro retina display.

    I spent my afternoon trying to install Windows 8 Pro on my new Macbook Pro with retina display. I get fairly deep into the installation process using bootcamp when I get a windows message that says something to the effect that windows can't be installed because the hard drive is not formatted in NTSF format. And that is the end of the line.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It's normal. Boot Camp Assistant formats the Boot Camp volume in FAT32 because in the past it supported Windows XP and it could use FAT32. This changed with Windows Vista.
    The only thing you have to do is to choose the BOOTCAMP partition in this step, and select "Drive options (advanced)". Then, press "Format" and it will be formatted into NTFS, so press Next and the installation will start.
    See the Apple's guide > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.8.pdf

  • Can't load fcp studio on new macbook pro/os 10.6.2

    I just got a brand new macbook pro and wanted to load my fcp studio 1 but it is saying I don't have the proper hardware. It want tell me exactly what hardware. I just bought this computer, so I can not understand the prob. Is it the operating system---OS 10.6.2?
    I bought upgrade disks for fcp studio 2--what happens now? Has Apple made it so an older version of FCP isn't compatible with newer macBooks?

    FCP versions 1, 2, 3, 4, 4.5 and 5 will only run on a PPC processor Mac.
    FCP versions 5.1 and 6 will run on both PPC and Intel Macs.
    FCP version 7 will only run on IntelMacs.

  • How can I install Aperture on my new Macbook Pro. I am up to date with my Mac Pro, I have the Aperture 1 and installation disks but cant remember how I got to 3. Can anyone help?  Many thanks regards Alf

    I have an up to date version of Aperture on my Mac Pro, and I would like to install it on my new Mac book Pro. I have the original installation disks for Aperture 1 and 2. I cant remember how I got to Aperture 3, I think it was via a web download but not sure. I have checked my purchases in the App Store but there is no indication of me buying an upgrade to Aperture 3.
    Ive tried to download it from the App Store but it wants me to pay again.
    Can anyone help on how to install Aperture 3 on my new Macbook .
    Many thanks regards  Alf

    Then you can download the Trial version of Aperture 3 and unlock it with your serial numbers - you will need all three for all three versions: A current link to the Trial version is in this support document, also instructions on how to reinstall on different systems:
    Aperture 3.4: May quit unexpectedly on launch after updating

    BTW: Your Aperture 3 serial number will be displayed in the "About" panel - the panel you see, when you use the command "About Aperture" from the Aperture menu in the main menu bar.

  • Re-install FCP 7 on new MacBook Pro

    My old MacBook's motherboard was damaged to the extend that I had to replace it with a  new OS X Yosemite. I have FCP X - but also want to use FCP 7. When I try to install it with the disc, the message reads"invalid product key". The duplicate from my old MacBook - the message is that it can not run on this version- need to re-instal. Has anyone also had this problem? Any solution?

    There are best practices from Apple for installing both FCP-7 on a system with FCP-X. You can find them in this Apple document, about halfway down the page:
    Final Cut Pro X, Motion 5, Compressor 4: Installation best practices - Apple Support
    also . . .

    Not sure what you mean by this - is the serial number for your disc being rejected?
    Is the FCS3 you are installing an upgrade version or a full version?

  • I installed indesign CS5 on new macbook pro and keeps freezing with spinning wheel once the app opens. Is there an issue with OS Mav or font issue or a plist I can pull. All other Adobe products work.

    I installed indesign CS5 on new macbook pro and keeps freezing with spinning wheel once the app opens. Is there an issue with OS Mav or font issue or a plist I can pull. All other Adobe products work.

    Migration should never be done with any Adobe program.
    If you have done Migration, you have to UNINSTALL first (if even possible) and then download Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and run that also. When this is done, restart your computer and install the programs from an original Adobe Installer.
    Other question is, if your OS is supporting that version. You can try it, it is not officially supported, but it might work.
    But CC will work, upgrade to CC2014 (without additional cost), use that as it is better anyway.

    Hi! I've got CS3 Design Standard - the actual disks and Software License certificate. It was installed on my laptop which crashed and could therefore not be uninstalled. I have now installed it on my new MacBook Pro, but cannot get it registered with the serial number. Is it because it wasn't uninstalled on the previous laptop? What to do now?? Thx!

    Maybe this can help someone else...  I simply had to properly uninstall CS3 and reinstall it again after that.  I think that sorted it!  I also remember having a similar issue with Macs at work a couple of years back.  Not sure whether the same applies to CS5/CS6.  Here's a link on how to properly uninstall CS3 on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OS.  I'm on OS X 10.9.2 but it worked just fine.  Remove Creative Suite 3 and CS3 products

  • I need to install windows on my new Macbook pro for running my flight simulator software

    Hi!
    I'm new to the Mac world and I need to install windows on my new Macbook pro for running my flight simulator software which only runs on windows. I would like to purchase and download the windows 8.1 rather than buying the CD.
    When i go to the microsoft store and click windows 8.1 it says it is only for who has windows xp or vista...
    can you tell me where and how can i purchase the full installation 8.1 for download?
    i will keep the ISO file on my flash drive.
    Thanks!

    it's likely an upgrade you are looking for and not a full install of windows
    http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/get-the-iso-you-need-to-crea te-your-own-windows-81-dvd/

  • Can you put windows on a new macbook pro

    can you  put windows on a new macbook pro ? yes or no, which notebook can i put windows on if not the macbook pro?

    WIndows 7 is the only Windows OS supported by the new Macs.
    You usually use Boot Camp Assistant to partition the drive and install the Windows product on the Mac.
    This creates a system where you boot into Mac OSX OR Windows.
    see more at http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    There are programs such as Parallels or VMWare Fusion that can create a Virtual Machine within Mac OSX - giving you access to both Operating Systems at once. You may get slight performance issues as you would be essentially running two Operating Systems at once.

  • How can i install windows games in my macbook pro

    I m a game lover but since i've macbook pro,i haven't played any game on my macbook...so guys please tell me how can i install windows games to my macbook pro.

    As eww said, that computer isn't specifically made for gaming. To get advanced graphics in a game, your computer needs what is called a "discrete" graphics processor, or GPU. This means a seperate chip that processes graphics. In Apple laptops, these are only found in the 15" and 17" MacBook Pro. It is not common to find these in laptops in general that are not expensive and high-end. What you have in yours is an "on-board" or "integrated" GPU. This means that graphics processing is done by a small portion of your main processor (the Intel i5 board). This takes away a portion of primary prossessing and dedicates it to graphics. This works perfectly find in most scenarios, but video rendering, gaming, and 3-D graphics tend to suffer. Most high-end, modern games require discrete GPUs to run at full quality these days.
    As far as running Windows 7 and Mac OS both, yes you absolutely can. If you install Windows 7 via Bootcamp (this would require you to have a Windows 7 CD), when you turn on your computer it will default to opening up in Mac OS. But if you hold down the Option key (bottom of the keyboard next to the Command button) while the computer is booting up, it will ask you if you want to open Windows or Mac OS.

  • I can´t download skype to my new macbook pro, I can´t find it in the App Store, do you know why?

    I can´t download skype to my new macbook pro, I can´t find it in the App Store, do you know why?

    There are a number of developers who have chosen for various reasons not to offer their software through the Mac App Store, so don't assume that if an application is not in the App Store that the application is not available. It may well be available directly from the developer or some other download site. MacUpdate is a good resource for looking for applications:

  • Can't Connect Via Ethernet on new MacBook Pro

    Hello,
    I'm running into a frustrating problem and hoping someone can help.
    I have a new MacBook Pro that won't connect via Ethernet. My old computer (Powerbook G4) with the same settings works flawlessly.
    Details: under Network Settings I have Automatic/Using DHCP. When I click on Assist Me>Diagnostics, I get green lights all the way down (Built-In Ethernet, Network Settings, ISP, Internet, Server). The Diagnostics tool therefore proudly announces that my Internet connection is working correctly.
    When I open Safari, however, it won't open any page. Using Ping I also get no responses.
    When I plug the exact same ethernet cable into my Powerbook G4, everything works flawlessly. The only difference is that the IP address ends in .25 instead of .30 (I assume that's from the router assigning different IP addresses to the two computers.)
    On another forum i read about someone having a problem with a long/lossy ethernet cable, but I just took my computer to the router and tried with a 2-foot ethernet cable. Same situation.
    Help!
    Thanks

  • Is it possible to remove my hard drive from the Macbook and install it in a new Macbook Pro?

    I currently have a 2009 Macbook and am wanting to upgrade to a new Macbook Pro.  I have upgraded my hard drive in the macbook to a 500gb and have a duel boot with Windows 7 installed with Boot Camp along with other software that I do not want to lose.  Is it possible to remove my hard drive from the Macbook and install it in a new Macbook Pro?

    A much better solution is to hook your two Mac together and the first time you start the new Mac and it asks if you wish to recover data from another Mac, answer yes. This will invoke Setup Assitant which will do the job for you but intelligently.
    I know because I just used Setup Assitant. It worked like  a charm.
