Downgrade Lion/Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard
  1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
      loads select your language and click on the Continue
      button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
      Utilities menu.
  2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
      mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
      of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then
      the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART
      info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on
      the Partition tab in the DU main window.
  3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
      from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
      Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
      partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
      the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
  4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

These Albums have been in the system for several years. where are they, and what happens to them. Do I need to import again. which could be a pain

  • Can I transfer a project from the trial version of Final Cut Pro X to the Full version

    Can I transfer a project from the trial version of Final Cut Pro X to the Full version which I have now downloaded.

    The trial version is named "Final Cut Pro Trial" and the App Store version is called "Final Cut Pro".
    So, they can both be in the Applications folder at the same time, but only one can be open/launched at a time.
    If, for some reason, your trial is older (like version 10.0.4) that your newly purchased FCPX (should be 10.0.5), and you do not click Update to your events/Projects, they will NOT show in the bought version!
    Open the licensed FCPX and make sure it does update your things, in case it asks for it!

    I upgraded my macbook pro from OS Lion to OS Mavericks. When unplugged, it heats up exceedingly and the battery life is extremely short. What to do?

    Installation of the new OSX is very heavy hdd load, in addition spotlight reindexes all the files on your computer - it may be a few hours. If in the future will be the same macbook hot, you should contact your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    May be required to clean notebook cooling system.
    You can also install any monitoring utility sensors to your mac  such as Hardware Monitor  and look at the value of the temperature sensors.

  • Final Cut Express Opens and Shuts Down?!  HELP!!!

    Hi there,
    I recently purchased Final Cut Express 2.0 and installed it onto my computer. After running into numerous glitches, I upgraded to FCE 3.5.
    I installed FCE 3.5 and LiveType and Soundbooth both are working great. However, when I open FCE, it begins to open and starts to load. You assume it is going to load in, but then the screen disappears and you are back to the desktop.
    I have deleted the preference files from the library, figuring that would be the solution. However, it seems as if that still has not solved my problem. I also tried Reparing Disc Utilities AND I tried re-installing just Final Cut Express after deleting the files that I thought might have been corrupt.
    Can anybody lend some advice as to what else I might try? If you have steps on how to do these things, that'd be great, too.
    The apple support people that I called said I should come on here, so please do not advise me to call Apple.
    THANK YOU!!!!

    Try trashing the preferences again making sure you delete ALL of them as described in this article by Tom:-
    http://www.fcpbook.com/Misc1.html
    If FCE still does not work, try reinstalling again but make sure you first of all UNINSTALL COMPLETELY like this :-
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301182
    You can ignore the LiveType and Soundtrack items.

    I believe there is no  "Export to Tape"  feature as appeared in legacy FCP.
    SORRY! Just noticed you are using FCP 6.
    You need to ask this question in the Final Cut Studio forum.

    When I'm streaming videos from my Macbook Air to my AppleTV, my Macbook Air gets rather hot and the fan works hard and is loud trying to keep the laptop cool.  Is this harmful to the laptop?  Is this normal?

    My MBA fans start running when I play video too - the CPU's video processor is working pretty hard to decode the video. The fans job is to provide better airflow.  The time to worry is when you play video and the fans don't run.

    Hi John,
    No reason that should happen!???
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, or are running 10.7+, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitiion & use Disk Utility from there.

  • I was updating Firefox from version 6 to version 7, after updating I tried to open Firefox and the message I got is this: This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found. How can I fix this?

    I was updating Firefox to the newest version 7.0.1 from version 6.0.2 I think it was, I clicked the restart Firefox button that always comes up after updating. It started updating and then Firefox never restarted like it was supposed to after it was done updating. I then tried to open Firefox and it told me "This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found." I did have Firefox crash on maybe about 30 minutes or so earlier which bothered me because I have been using Firefox for years and never had it crash on me before but I didn't think much of it at the time it happened because I was able to go back onto Firefox and finish what I had been working on. A while later I checked for updates and updated. The first time I tried to update it didn't work though so I had to shutdown Firefox and reopen Firefox and start the update a second time. It was after the second time that when I tried to open Firefox I got that message about failing to start because xul.dll can't be found. I filed a crash report when my Firefox crashed. This would have been around 1am-2am in the morning that Firefox first crashed and then wouldn't allow me to open it after updating. I have a DELL laptop running the Windows XP operating system but the laptop is probably at least 6 or 7 years old. The laptop will no longer charge so I always have to have it plugged into an outlet. Both my laptop hard drive and my external hard drive give me messages that I am running out of disk space on my hard drive. I bought this laptop 6 or 7 years ago second hand so it could be even older. In short it's a piece of crap and it gives me all kinds of issues but I currently can't afford a new one, but I have never had any problems with Firefox and I use Firefox more than any other aspect of my laptop so it's really really bothering me. May you please help me fix it?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • I am trying out Final Cut Pro X and trying desperately to import a project from iMovie 11 (version 9.0.9). There is no export to FCPX in iMovie 11 nor is there import from iMovie in FCPX.

    Can someone please help me?
    I am trying out Final Cut Pro X on a 30 day trial. So far so good.
    I am now trying desperately to import a project from iMovie 11 (version 9.0.9) into FCPX.
    I have read multiple posts on this subject and they all recommend File/import/ from iMovie project in FCPX
    However there is NO such option under File/import in FCPX - nor is there an option to export to FCPX in iMovie 11
    Can anyone please enlighten me.

    The current version of FCPX does not work with that version of iMovie. You need version 10.0.3, which allows you to send a project to FCP.

  • Final cut xprs 4 and capturing HDV from tape

    Hi all
    I just tried for the first time to get FCXP4 to capture from my Canon HV20 in hidef and the software didn't do what the manual says it would do.
    Manual tells me to create a new bin in the browser and then hit command 8 and instead of the DV capture window it would start a dialog box to capture HDV.
    Well, it doesn't. It just says I don't have a video device connected.
    Even though the same camcorder is captured by the same software just fine in standard def. HELP!

    Do you have any other devices connected? How is the camera connected? What settings are on the media? What settings are you using in FCE? Did you change the settings before you initiated capture? Does system profiler see the camera?
