    Does final cut pro work on Macbook air.
    I know it works fine on my Macbook Pro, but considering getting an Air for travelling, and like to import and do some basic editing while away.
    Used to have a Macbook, and FCP wouldn't load on that.
    Understand the Air's limitations on disk size, but only wanting it as a travelling editor.
    Thanks

    "Traveling editor" could imply dedicated offlining. Shane, do you think that could work with a low rez ProRes codec?
    I don't think anyone has tried to use an AirBook for FCP. Anyone bother to search?

  • HT1531 does final cut pro works for my mac book pro 4 gb ram i5 processors

    why am not able to support power pc applications in mac     

    Babowa: Here is a recent post I made on this subject (responding to the oft mentioned claim on this forum that "installing Rosetta into Lion" would allow FCPS to be installed). 
    I would love it, if the OP (or you, perhaps, if you do not mind goting through the process again) could confirm the "Terminal Instruction"installation method:
    It never made sense to me that (a) one could install Rosetta into Lion and get any results at all, let alone get an installer written in PPC code to run; or (b) if installing Rosetta into Lion worked for an installer written in PPC code, then why wouldn't an application written in PPC code work also?
    And the answer is...
    Anytime an operating system is updated, there is a chance that some of your software will no longer function 100% correctly, until the publisher releases an update of that software for the newly updated operating system.  And that is what is going on here...
    The Final Cut Pro installer is NOT written in PowerPC code!  There is some minor instruction in the installer that makes a call to the operating system in Lion, that Lion is incorrectly interpreting as being PPC code and hence giving the Dialog Box that says that it cannot run a PowerPC program.
    This minor instruction is attempting to execute the following instruction in Terminal:
    $ sudo installer -package /Volumes/Final\ Cut\ Studio/Installer/FinalCutStudio.mpkg -target /
    If you execute this instruction in Terminal sans Rosetta, the program will install perfectly!
    Somehow, the "installation of Rosetta" into Lion, and perhaps Mountain Lion interferes just enough between the program and the operating system, to allow the program to make this call to Terminal and install the program.  Since this instruction will work in Terminal without Rosetta installed, it obviously has nothing to do with PowerPC code or Rosetta.
    So the best advice would appear to be to use this instruction in Terminal and wait while the installation program completes all of its tasks with the concluding statement:
    installer: The install was successful.
    This method avoids any pitfalls that may occur by installing Rosetta, which has no place in Lion or Mountain Lion and may be the cause of future problems!
    Since I do not have Final Cut Pro, I cannot confirm this, but maybe I can borrow a copy somewhere soon...

  • Does Final Cut Pro import 24 fps video?

    Hi,
    I've been working with Final Cut Express for about a year, and am thinking about upgrading. I know that Final Cut Express does not import true 24 fps video, but am wondering if Final Cut Pro does. Also, does Final Cut Pro require more hardware power than FCE? (I currently have a dual core MacBook Pro with 4 gigs of ram. Will that suffice for FCP?)
    Thanks,
    Vic

    Yes, FCP can handle 24 (or, more commonly, 23.98), and no, it doesn't require additional hardware (though certain apps inside the suite will certainly benefit from it).

  • How does final cut pro x export a file if it has not finished rendering?

    How does final cut pro x export a file if it has not finished rendering?
    So today I finished a project: Share >Export > as a pro res 422 and I'm now burning with iDVD as we speak. FCPX is still doing background rendering! I hope my DVD turns out ok....

    You don't need to render before export.
    Rendering is for playback.
    If your project plays OK from the storyline, you can safely turn off rendering in preferences.

  • Does Final Cut Pro X Utilize Multiple GPUs if more than one is installed?

    For example, does Final Cut Pro X utltize both GPU's to help in rendering if you went with the two ATI Radeon 5770 option in a Mac Pro? Thanks for any help!
    Dan

    - NO - kind of but not really - take a class - watch some basic videos on you tube...
    - YES - multicam is excellent
    - YES - you can switch it off - but you probably won't when you get used to it - after about 5 days
    - YES - very much so in the browser where it counts
    - YES... I think.
    Really go watch some basic entry level FCP X vids - the answers are all there. I recommend watching the latest from 2014 on YouTube. There are plenty.

  • Does Final Cut 7 work in Mountain Lion?

    I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion for iCloud and being able to sync files with my iPhone.  However, I am a video editor using Final Cut Pro 7.  Will the program function properly in Mountain Lion?

    First of all, backup your system before you do anything.
    I had no problems with Final Cut Studio when I upgraded to Mountain Lion.
    Mavericks causes the Qmaster preference pane to stop working. Supposedly you can still use the Terminal to set it up. I went ahead and got Compressor 4 and all was well.
    I don't think it's no longer necessary to install FCP7 and FCPX on separate partitions. I had FCP7 on my 2008 iMac and installed FCPX without any partitioning. When FCPX is installed it creates a folder called "Final Cut Studio" in the Application folder that houses all the final cut Studio apps.

  • Does final cut pro x work on mac mini i5 2.3GHz

    Hey everyone I'm a Mac newbie and i just bought this mac mini of course the cheapest one and now im wondering if i would be able to run final cut pro x on it        if i install 16gb of ram someone please help me out if not i may just return it thanks in advance

    short answer: it will
    long answer; FCPX does perform well (for my needs), on my less-powerful MacMini C2D/2.26 with 8GB. so, the i5 plus its newer graphic card plus your 16GBs will 'fly'. you can improve performance even more with additional, external harddrives, to keep projects, events and system/app on physical diff. drives.
    It's a kind of 'religious war' here on this board btw, the real professionals ("…only and just only  fw800 RAIDS work!"), and hobbyists like Ian and me ("my ol' usb drives support 6-angle-multicam too!") what kind of drives you should use ... finally, size-of-wallet decides

  • Does final cut pro x work on any computers

    help am trying to download final cut pro x on my hp window 7 does  it work on hp computers

    No & NO on HP PC.
    Most Macs built after 2009 should be OK.
    Earlier than that your chances  diminish depending on model and personal upgrades.
    The App Store will not allow a download on a Mac that is under specs.

  • Does Final Cut Pro Studio work on old powerbook?

    I'm planning to buy the Final Cut Pro Studio package, but before I want to be sure that it will work fine on my PowerBook.
    I have enough Processor (G4 1Ghz) and RAM (1Gb) as apple suggest, but I'm worried about the supported graphics cards listed on the recommendation. My GeForce4 MX graphics cards is not mentioned. and of course I have to upgrade to OS 10.4.x... this is not a problem.
    In this moment, from the Final Cut Pro Studio package, I only need to use FCP, DVDSP and Compressor. I have to import about 1 hour SD movie, other short clip, convert to AC3 and Mpeg2 and use DVD Pro to authoring a DVD. I don't need to use a lot of graphic fx with motion or capture in HD format.
    Thank you for your suggestion and recommendation!
    I hope to be more active in this forum soon!

    It worked well enough (but slowly) on mine. But you probably won't be able to install Motion because of your graphics card.

  • Does Final Cut Pro X work on OS X Snow Leopard?

    Can I run Final Cut Pro X, Motion 5, Compressor, and Adobe Photoshop CS6 on OS X Snow Leopard?

    check the system requirements for these programs yourself.  It can be done very easily via google instead of having others do it for you.

  • Final Cut Pro working very sluggish, any suggestions ?

    Hello everybody, I've been using Final Cut Pro for a very long time now. Although I've had this problem lately, when the smooth cam analyzation finishes. Final Cut pro ( the Video which was analyzed successfully ), starts working very slow. Something so small as a cut even take like 30 seconds to complete. I'm using a MacBook Pro 17" 3.06 ghz, 8gb 1067 MHz DDR3 ram and connected to a Firewire 800 hard drive that has 7,200 rpm rotational speed. I've tried trashing the preferences and reinstalling Final Cut ( I have the latest version ), but nothing helps. Maybe I need to render all of the video or something, does anyone have any suggestions or any kind of help ? ( Thank You ahead of time ).

    The only way that would work out is if you ran exactly the versions that were made for old PowerBooks. Anything newer may require Intel and not run, or will strain the poor old G4 CPU.
    Your needs have to be modest, too, because the problem with older music and video software is that they are not current as far as formats and codecs for the Web. If you want to output H.264, the current standard for YouTube/Flash video, older software may not support it, and in addition, H.264 is processor-intensive and is tailor-made for today's multi-core, 2+ GHz processors. It will overwhelm a G4. A PowerBook G4 can barely play YouTube videos.
    More perspective: The PowerBooks worked great for miniDV format editing. In other words, 480i SD/standard definition video in use from the late 1990s to the late 2000s. If that is all you want to do, edit tape from an old miniDV camera to SD output, then OK.
    But if you want to edit today's HD video, whether 720p from a snapshot camera/iPhone 4 or 1080p from a DSLR, the PowerBook and the software for it will either not recognize AVCHD/H.264, or it will slow the PowerBook to a dead crawl.
    I'm in agreement with the above: Intel Macs have been out for so many years that getting a used one is a much better deal than a dead-end PowerBook. And I loved (still love) my PowerBooks.
