Cannot read version 4 fcp project and associated files with the new 5.1.2

I cannot read my fcp 4 version projects and associated files with the new 5.1.2 fcp.
Please help!

I bought the Final Cut 5 studio to use for my company but I have project files from version 4, which I would like to update. My G5 is running Tiger and Final Cut recognizes the old files as Final Cut Documents (the media is already on the G5) but will not open them or their associated quicktime files. I have no problem loading version4 to export the Masters but I would like to be able to upgrade the project files so that I can use them in my addition Studio Pro applications and touch them up in Shake. Also, I don't want to go and find FCP4 on the internet because it may have other problems.
What do you suggest?
Can FCP4 files be updated to version 5.1.2?
Can I get a back dated version of FCP4 through Apple?
Thanks for your time.

  • Upload FCP Projects and Associated Media to a Production

    Hi,
    This sounds very silly but I`m really disappointed and can`t figured out how to do it.
    Is there a way to upload a *.fcp project and associate NOT ONLY the project but ALSO the Media that this project contains?
    In other words, if I upload a FCP project and choose a Production to be associated the production is created but ONLY the FCP Project Asset is inside this production, not the whole medias.
    A scan production (for the FCP file) also doesn`t work.
    What works is uploading all media and associating to a production or do a Scan production into a directory with medias. But my FCP and Medias are in distinct places and a thought that FCP project could help me cleaning the Media directories (by uploading the project and after all medias are catalogued archiving them, so the rest in directories are useless).
    The work around would be:
    1- to do a Scan Production in the Media files and after that uploading a FCP project associating with that Production, but as I`ve said I can`t just scan the entire Media as it`s very messy and with this way I could be guaranteed that my important assets are catalogued (and archived) and the left ones in the messy directories could be quick filtered to exclusion and cleaning without worries.
    2- to upload a FCP and associate to a production and after that manually move fcp associated assets to this production (this almost impossible because the limitation of 200 assets per page).
    Can some one propose a better way?
    Regards

    No, you are correct, but unfortunately these are Elements (inside the FCP project) and not real Assets. So for instance, if you fill in the annotations on the Asset it will not show on the Elements (inside FCP projects) and vice-versa. You can`t do a lot of other things as well with elements as you can with assets.
    So I would like to have a Production with all media created automatically when a FCP project is uploaded (or scanned).
    Regards

  • Dng and tif file with the same name, in the same Lightroom folder

    If I have both a dng and tif file with the same name, in the same Lightroom folder, I can only see and access one of them. Is there a setting I can change in order to see both of them?

    If you can only see one of them, which one can you see?
    Was the DNG and the TIF imported at the same time?
    How are you trying to "access" the files?
    The more details you can provide, the more likely it is that someone will be able to help you.

    That's interesting. The file date should match the system date. What's the system date? What version of InDesign? What operating system?

    You could use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • How can I change my iphone username to update apps and download anything with the new email I have today?

    how can I change my iphone username to update apps and download anything with the new email I have today?

    Before you make an apple ID with the new email, go to appleid.apple.com.  login with your old email and password. change your old email to your new one. Now you can use your new email as your apple id, but beware if you go through the process of creating a new appleid with your new email address you will not be able to attach your old account to your new email.

  • Need to delete the old page number from a combined file and replace it with the new number. is there a way for me to do that using JavaScipt

    is there a way of using JS to delete the old page number (1,3,32,78) on a combined PDF and inset it with a new page numbers (1,2,3,4) Thank you

    Depends. If the page numbers can be located by their location on the page then a script can be written to redact that area, and then add new page numbers in their place (or somewhere else).

  • Audio and speakers issues with the new iTunes 7

    Hi,
    I also have an audio problem after installing the new iTunes 7. It seems after iTunes have finished "determining the gapback playback information", all audio from iTunes and Quicktime only comes through my two front speakers. I have a 5.1 setup for my computer and it seems is only a iTunes and Quicktime issue since Windows media plays the audio just fine. Anybody know what the issue could be? I'm on Windows XP by the way.
    I have checked my speaker setup and sound card and this problem does not occur in Windows media or any other media software. It seems that it only occurs with iTunes and Quicktime.

    Yet another person with the exact same problem, with the same sound card. Everything is up-to-date. I've tried all of the other "fixes" but its either done nothing, or given me use of my rear speakers but added an awful awful ear shattering static. I've tried everything. I even stood on one foot.
    Furthermore, my EAX options do not work with iTunes 7 either, though they work with the older versions. I can't even adjust the speaker balance (front to rear, right to left). This is an isolated problem, only with the new iTunes and QuickTime. Everything else on my computer works just dandy, and cooperates with my speakers (5.1 surround) and my EAX settings.
    Edited because I said video card, not sound card.. I'm tired, been trying to fix this for an hour.

  • We upgraded AdobePhotoshop Elements 10 and are unfamiliar with the new set-up and installing.

    It has asked me to uninstall the "installation browser," which I did.  Then download the update. . .    which I tried to do. . .   It said I needed to download Adobe Air first. . .   which I tried to do. .    I repeatedly get an error saying, retry???   I'm stuck?  Where do I go from here?

    You want to keep your OS X and Application files on the SSD (e.g. /Applications, /Library, /System, /Users). You can put any data files you want elsewhere such as documents, spreadsheets, music, videos, software install files (.dmg).
    I wouldn't try to move my /User/<username> folders outside of the boot drive. But the data files inside your User folders like ~/Documents, ~/Downloads, ~/Music, ~/Pictures can be placed elsewhere. You would just need to point your apps to those locations to access them.
