Can't Open FCP after I Updated to 10.5.8 & downloaded AVID codecs

I recently updated my OS to 10.5.8. I also downloaded AVID codec for quicktime. Then, when I went to open FCP on my MacBook Pro (2.6GHz Intel Core 2 Duo), I was hit with the error message Final Cut Pro requires that your system have a CPU type G5; this system has a CPU type of G4. I've never had a problem running FCP on this laptop. Any suggestions? Help!

What version of FCP do you have?
Your MacBook Pro is an Intel processor Mac. FCP versions 5.1 through 7 should run on it. Older versions (5.0.4 and earlier) will not. They require a PPC processor Mac like the older G5s and G4s.

  • How can I open iTunes after recent update 01/25/2014

    After installing the recent update for iTunes,  I can't open iTunes.  Tried to uninstall/reinstais missing, with same results.  I have received several error messages:  MSVCR80.dill is missing.  Please re-install, error 7 Windows error (126).
    When will this corrupted download be fixed?  I can't access iTunes at all.

    Do the following:
    Uninstall from Windows the following four programs: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support. You do this from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
    Download the latest version of iTunes from Apple and note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
    Run the iTunes installation as an administrator, just Right click iTunes installer and Run as Administrator.

  • Can't Open Mail after security update 10.6.8

    I can not get the mail app to run.  This is the error message I keep getting.
    Did the SecUpd2012-004 update.
    After the update, I had (and still have) 2 copies of mail in my application folder.
    I've repaired my permissions.
    Tried to got back using the time machine (that was a waste of hours).
    Also, deleted the mail app (8.1) and then reinstalled the SecUpd2012-004.
    Only thing I haven't done is to do the Combo 10.6.8 update.
    I've noticed that other people are starting similar threads.  Anybody have a solution?  I've been working on it all day and no joy.
    Thanks in advance.

    Well, I thought that we might have had a solution, but no such luck.
    I did the combined update - and after that I had only one Mail app in the applications folder (encouraging) - and it appeared to be the correct one by it's icon.
    Thought about doing a repair permissions but didn't do it after the combined update.
    After the combined update, I did the secUpd, the second mail app was there with it's generic icon again and
    Needless to say, I'm back to square 1.
    So, I'm thinking I've got some options here.  One of my options would be to get another HD, slug it into one of the open HD slots, take out my 10.6 CD format it and then if possible use time machine to put that drive in the state where everything worked right before the update.  This would seem to be the fastest, time wise way of making the issue go away.
    You guys think I could / should delete the 4.6 mail app and start over with the combined update and then do a permissions repair after the update?

  • Can't open iPhoto after maverick update

    Hi
    Updated to Maverick and now can't open i photo and can't get it to update. Hepl!

    What update? With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what update did you apply?
    what version of iPhoto are you currently using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when you try to open iPhoto?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    Happy Holidays

  • Can't open mail after installing update with 10.6.8 says my mail is out of date

    Please help - new to Macs and I installed automatic update of 10.6.8 - 4 days ago and now I can't open up mail  - it says "You can't use this version of Mail with this version of Mac OS X. You tried to open Mail version 4.5 (1084/1085) in Applications/ Mail.
    So I went to  Applications, says this message again. So I   used my discs that  came with the computer adn installed again  Applications - no luck.
    I had luckily  backed up 2 days before this update - so went to Time Machine - did restore - now good still - can't  open mail. CLick on Iconand get same messgae .
    Please help. Thank you

    Thank you for the very clear basic instructions—helpful for a newbie.…Also my first screen shot !! I see that it does not have .App next to it
    Most likely because you have Finder's preferences->Advanced->Show all filename extensions unchecked. Check it, log out, and back in and all the apps should display the .app extension.
    Now, back to your problem. If you installed the Security Update 2012-004, it failed to update Mail to 4.6; thus, your problem. Manually DL it from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586 and reinstall it.

  • Can't open iphoto after complete reboot.

    Hi!
    My computer stoped working a while back and I had the harddrive replaced, now I can't open iphoto after importing it from time mashine. I still have the same OS X (10.6.8) on a Mac Book pro from 2009. I can't buy the new one, or update it, because my OS X is too old and after seeing all the problems with the new system I don't really want to install it. How do I make iphoto work again? When I try to open it, it just says it can't open because of a problem (no, really?).

    Is there a crash report?  Have you tried reinstalling it?
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    To open your domain file in Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with AppleScript Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script"/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"
    delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain. Note:  you may have to Control (right) - click on the app after uncompressing and select Open due to the Sandboxing feature of OS X.  If you have problems with the app create your own with AppleScript Editor.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks and Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
