Can't share final cut pro latest version across my macs.

I have purchased, for quite a bit of money, the latest Final Cut Pro for my macbook pro - 10.5.6, I think it is , -  I really find all these decimal numbers meaningless, confusing and difficult to remember.
Still, I want to share the purchased fcp app so I can use it also on my macbook air.
Trouble is, my macbook pro runs on snowleopard, and the macbook air, which I bought more recently runs on  mountain lion,.. no, just  Lion....
This latest version of FCP is not supported by Lion (10.7.4), so my macbook air can't download it.
The solution to this  problem may seem obvious to many, but I can't see it. And the problem is just nuts!
Any clues as to how to get my  - later version - macbook air to work with the latest version of Final Cut Pro would be much appreciated. Taa

Lousy Fool
Sigh, the wink at the bottom really doesn't help you to get away with the patronism in your answer you know.
I know what OSX systems each of my macs run - 10.6.8 for the mcp and 10.7.4 for the mbair. 
I don't want to "stress software update in the same apple menu" and move from 10.7.4 to 10.7.5, because its my understanding from researching reviews on this forum, and from my own experience that updating the operating systems on macs can cause hassle. If I am wrong in this then thats my learning.
Finally, with regards to my expectations, it was a trainer at an applestore , fully aware that I was using these two operating systems, who suggested I upgrade my final cut pro. My expectations were that he knew what fcps compatibilities were.
Finally, what kind of company releases an upgrage system is compatible with an earlier version of its own software (10.6.8), but not with a later one (10.7.4). I do have expectations of apple being better than this.
This is only the second time I've come onto an apple forum to ask a genuine question that foxes me, and the second time I've received the kind of reply that its intended to put one down. Be aware of how your answers come across please.

  • Can't install final cut pro trial version 10.0.6

    hello, i can't insatll the trial version of final cut pro 10.0.6
    after downloading and agreeing, there comes an information that the disk image is destroyed. i tried downloading it many times on different machines but the problems stays the same. please, help!

    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 I add final cut pro to more than one Mac?

    I'm gonna buy final cut pro 5.1 and I wanted to know if I need to buy 2 or can I just get 1 and put it on both my Macs. I also wanted to know if this will work for Shake 4.1, Logic pro 7, Office 2004.

    It will work on both simultaneously as long as you take one of the computers off your network while editing. Might be a violation of their licensing agreement though. Not sure about that. I have the same copy of FCP on my desktop and laptop but only use the laptop for remote editing when the desktop is not practical.

  • Can't Find Final Cut Pro with my admin user!

    It was there, but I changed the name from the person I bought the macbook15 from and now all the settings and apps are set default.
    Is there a way my main account (set to admin) can find Final Cut Pro (and maybe others) to appear on hard drive without having to use the old name and password?
    If I create a new user with the name of the original account is simply says "Username already used". In other words, If I am to use the old username, I have to change my main admin account and go through that all over again.
    Admin should mean, total control of the computer...
    Also does deleting/changing the original user actually delete programs?? It shouldn't, the hard drive files should be left alone. I can't find Final Cut Pro on the drive at all, it seemed to only appear when I'm using the original user name.
    Thoughts....discussions??
    I'm using the latest Macbook Pro 15 and updates.

    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.

  • Can't load Final Cut Pro HD 4.5 2004 onto Macbook Pro Laptop 2010 says error Galtstal

    hi does anyone know if it is possible to load a new unopened Final Cut Pro HD version 4.5 dated 2004 onto a macbook pro dated 2010. i receive error message
    Galtstal missing!

    Well, you're in the FCP X forum and you should post this question in the Final Cut Studio Forum here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/professional_applications/final_cut_stud io
    But I can tell you that your MBP has an Intel processor and FCP4.5 was designed to run Power PC machines. So, unfortunately, you can't.
    You can verify that on the FCS forum.
    Good luck.

  • How Can I transfer Final Cut Pro X to another computer

    How can I transfer Final Cut Pro X to another computer without connecting the two

    As Kappy said, download it from the App Store - this will give you a brand new copy. However unlikely, it's just possible you might be copying a corrupt version from the original computer.
    In the App Store, make certain you use the same Apple ID that the App was purchased with.

  • How to update final cut pro newer version?

    How to update final cut pro newer version?

    Do you have Final Cut Pro X? (To check, go to the menu bar and click Final Cut Pro > About). If you don't have version 10 (X) I don't think you can update it any way other than buying it from the Mac App Store, which requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later.
    It's currently $300 on the Mac App Store, which is an enormous drop from what it used to be.

    What format is your problem clip? Are there wave forms visible in the section without sound?
    Right click on the clip in the event broswer and choose Reveal in Finder; open the clip in Quick Time to confirm that there is sound throughout at that stage of your workflow.

  • HT4664 Can I use final cut pro X on " Mac mini" ?

    Can I use final cut pro X on " Mac mini" ?

    depending on what model: for sure yes, it does!
    I did use FCPX on an old MacMini, c2d, 2.26GHz with 8GB Ram (using proxies made editing easy).
    My actual work-horse is a MacMini i5, late 2012, 16GB Ram, plus some ext. usb3 drives = perfect for my needs! (costs vs. power)
    I'm using two cheap 2.5" Toshiba 1TB usb3-drives, combined with MacOS' built-in DiskUtility as a Raid0 = 150mbps for under 100€ ... not professional (=raid0 contains a small risk of data loss), but again: best €-vs.-HP ratio

  • Can't Open Final Cut Pro X

    I can't open Final Cut Pro X.  The problem seemed to start when I deleted some old backups.  Help?

    Close FCP X and re-open holding the Option key.
    This will allow you to create a new Library, do so.
    If the newly created Library works OK then there is a corruption issue in the current one that doesn't open.
    Try a backup, usually found in your Home>Movies folder.
