FCP 5.1.1 crashes on Mac Pro

My spanking new Mac Pro and FCP 5.1.1 seem to have a problem as FCP crashes a lot. Log says for the last couple of crashes:

The mighty mouse (wired) leaves vertical lines on the timeline as I scroll horizontally during playback. This to me seems a video problem. Where to look and has anyone similar experience?

  • I am using FCP 7.0.3.on my Mac Pro. I bought a new mac book pro and loaded the software on to the lap top but the software is 6.0.3. How do i get the update to the lap top?

    I am using FCP 7.0.3 on my Mac Pro. I bought a new mac book pro and loaded the software on to the lap top but the software is 6.0.3. How do i get the update to the lap top?

    .. and by the way, the jump from FCP 6.0.3 to FCP 7.0 (or higher) isn't an "update"  It's a full version "upgrade" that has to be done using the install discs (or disc images).

  • Will a FCP 3.0.4 upgrade from FCP 1 load onto a new Mac Pro

    Will a FCP 3.0.4 upgrade from FCP 1 load onto a new Mac Pro. I have tried loading in onto a mac book with no luck. I think its because my original FCP 1 loades using OS9 and because the new Mac Pro does not have an old operating system on it I cant load my original FCP.

    You should upgrade to FCP 5.1 or 6 as Jerry says.
    However, if you are desperate you could try this :-
    Install just your FCP 3 upgrade and also put in your FCP 1 serial number when asked.
    Whenever you try to open FCP you will probably get an error message. Click the "esc" key and FCP should open.

  • Anyone have a solution to why Illustrator CC crashes on Mac Pro running OS 10.6.8?

    Anyone have a solution to why Illustrator CC crashes on Mac Pro running OS 10.6.8?

    We recently (yesterday) upgraded our Adobe apps to CC versions. InDesign, Photoshop and Bridge all run perfectly. Illustrator crashes at startup. Tried launching it from Administrator account and it crashes. I have disabled fonts except the bare minimum, no success. If it would launch, then I might be able to narrow it down to an incompatible print driver, but it has to actually be running first. We use no third party plugins with it, so I doubt that is the issue.

  • Os lion crashing on mac pro now and then after startup trying to open first app

    Try option/command/R
    Don't press it until you hear the chime, don't release it until you see recovery loading, don't press other random combinations unless you know what they do.

  • LR 5.6 crashes my Mac Pro

    Ever since upgrading to LR 5.6 it appears to crash my mac pro after editing a few photos...I have tried all the suggested fixes of creating a new catalog and re-importing files, reinstalling LR, etc...still have the same issue. Baffled as to what to do.  Has anyone had this issue and found a fix or know what might be causing the problem?  If I can't solve this quickly Im going to need to move to another photo editor...dont have time to be Adobe's QA lab....

    What would help would be if you can tell us if it's always the same kind of images or edits resulting in the crasher.
    Thanks,

  • Are my motion problems because project was on fcp 5 now on FCS with Mac Pro

    I have a 25 min. completed project done in FCP 5. Bought a Mac Pro and now have FCS. Opened project in FCS and my motion sequences are wacky (back and forth jittery). (all motion projects use psd files and ran smoothly in FCP 5). When rendering in FCS, it crashes and I will also get "may have been caused by the ProGraphics plug-in". I read the threads to that and tried the fix and it didn't seem to help. I thought it'd be easy to make a DVD of this project and I'm going nuts trying to solve the mystery. (I'm NOT a Mac guru, more like a Mac first grader). Do I need a new graphics card? Radeon HD 3870 is what I'm reading. But is my problem a Motion 3 issue? or is it getting a FCP 5 project into FCS? I started tweaking the motion jitters and realized this is ridiculous. I love the original project and want THAT to be the DVD. Please HELP me, guide me, enlighten me!

    I have FC 6.04, but still get the ProGraphics plug-in crash. Hmm?
    Also, in refining the jittering situation.... it occurred in Motion first, without sending it to FC.
    Here's what happened. I have a series of psd. of a creature "talking". So one psd the mouth is open, the next psd mouth is closed. etc. but what happened going from my first finished product which ran smoothly, to now is that the open mouth psd(for example) has shifted slightly so when it runs in Motion, it gets that jittery back and forth look. This type of thing has occurred in most of the Motion sequences. Some psds are Way over. There doesn't seem to be any pattern of disturbance. All I know for sure is something got lost in translation from Motion (used in fcp 5) to Motion 3.( I have no Motion exported Quicktime yet). I really want to get to the root of this without going in and doing surgery to the project. Thanks for any help.

  • Capture willl not work with FCP 5.1.1 installed on Mac Pro 2.66.

    I need some help, Please!
    Hello, I have just installed my crossover copy of Final Cut Studio 5.1 in a new Mac Pro.
    The only problem that I have encountered is with capture. After running for
    several seconds capture stops and the spinning beach ball makes its entrance.
    After several minutes of spinning the capture moves on for a few more
    frames. Again the beach ball will spin for several more minutes. This continues until I click on
    STOP at which point the spinning beach ball takes over the machine and will
    not give me back control until I turn off my transport/deck. I have reinstalled
    only FCP 5.1(not the other apps. from FCS) with no luck. I didn't uninstall the previous copy. No improvement.
    All my settings are the same as recommended in Easy Set Up.
    The tape and deck work fine on a similar machine with similar software.
    I have also found a similar problem with the installed copy of iMovie.
    This software was used on a G5 before moving it over to Mac Pro with out
    problems. I am at a complete loss. I hope you can embarrass me with a
    simple solution.
    Thank you for your help.

    avidvid, thank you for you advice. I did check the system profiler and the device is
    recognized, but to no avail. In fact it is getting worse. When I initiate log and
    capture I can hear the transport working. It is moving all the time even though
    the capture window is now only showing the color bars. The "beach ball" is now
    constantly whirling and will only stop when the "deck" is turned of at the source.
    I am worried that I have messed up the reinstall. I am really not sure how much
    "stuff" I must remove from the system, or whether to reinstall the entire suite.
    Thanks again for your trouble.

  • Lion update 10.7.5 crashed my Mac Pro

    After completion of the 10.7.5 update from the Software updater, my Mac Pro would not boot from the 10.7.5 startup drive.  I have 4 hard drives in the machine.  A 1TB startup disk running Lion, two 1.5TB drives in a mirrored RAID config with OS X Snow Leopard (the last Apple OS that would allow a RAID'd startup drive), and a 3TB disk configured as a Time Machine backing up the other three drives.  I've been wrestling the problem for over a week now.  So far I've observed:
    I do not think its a bad hard disk:
    I bought a new 1TB Seagate drive to replace the failed 1TB Western Digital thinking I had a hardware problem.  The Seagate loaded Lion 10.7 fine and booted fine, until downloading the 10.7.5 update from the "Software Update" in System Preferences.  Same result.  Dead computer as soon as the install completed and attempted to boot.  The crash screen is solid grey with a text warning in the middle that reads something like hit a key to try again.  It's an infinite loop from there...multiple failed boots leading to "hit a key to try again." 
    Curious thing, I can use the failed drive, just not as a startup disk:
    So I pulled the Lion drive and booted from my old RAID'd pair running Snow Leopard.  Ran great, except of course all the applications that no longer run in Snow Leopard etc.  I set Snow Leopard as the startup disk, and rebooted with the Lion drive pushed back in.  System booted fine into Snow Leopard and I could see the Lion drive, open it, move files around etc. 
    Mountain Lion didn't work either:
    Then I thought, well, I wanted to move to Mountain Lion anyhow, no time better than now!  I formatted the Seagate that had the bad 10.7.5, and installed a fresh copy of Mountain Lion.  Guess what?  Same result.  Infinite loop of grey screen of death.  But like before, if I booted into Snow Leopard, I can look into the Mountain Lion disk like I could with Lion 10.7.5. 
    Stuck with 10.7.4:
    Next step was another format of the Seagate.  Re-installed Lion 10.7, but this time only updated it to 10.7.4 (vice 10.7.5).  Now I'm going through all the pain of restoring with Time Machine, reconfiguring software, and typing in keys. 
    The final situation is still worse than I was before I started:
    Somewhere along the line, bluetooth stopped working ("bluetooth not available"), even after trying a SMC reset.  Also, I think mutliple initializations of my apple ID in the cloud resulted in password insanity on our iPhones and iPad...even after typing in a password, they only seem to work for a day before I get another pop up on my iPhone that my passord is wrong. 
    Maybe the "incremental" 10.7.5 will work?
    Apple released the 10.7.5 update on 19 Sep 12.  This is the update that caused all this pain.  I noticed there is an incremental update to 10.7.5 released 4 Oct 12.  Does anyone know if it will fix all this?  I'm not to excited about pushing the "I believe" button again...
    Frustrated in the Corn Fields,
    Jeff Brown

    I have had exactly the same problem on my older 17" MBP. (I think its a 2009) Upgraded from 10.7.3 >> 10.7.5 necessary to synch with Iphone etc and on powerup you simply get the screen "You will need to hold down the power button....
    Formated, Re-installed and PRAM's all to no avail.
    Finally downloaded Mountain Lion and created Boot USB, again performed clean install, this time 1/2 way through the installation (Im guessing after it has created the rescuse sector and re-boots) it came up with Grey Screen - Computer needs to re-boot itself.
    Was able to continue the installation however whenever it booted up it would come up with the same grey screen - computer needs to re-start....
    Now after 3 days I have returned to Lion 10.7.3 frustrated and £13.xx out of pocket, unable to synch with Iphone
    Grrrrrrrr

  • FCP Uncompressed Editing on a new Mac Pro

    Hello everybody,
    I too am about to empty my wallet into Apple's bank account.
    I am upgrading my editing capacity and have the following wish list in order to edit compressed and uncompressed 8 or 10 bit high definition video shot with HDV and DVCPro HD camcorders:
    Mac Pro - 2x 2.66GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon Processors
    2 GB RAM
    ATI Radeon X1900 XT graphics card
    1 x 250GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA (as boot drive)
    3 x 500GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s (as striped footage drives)
    Apple Cinema Display (20" flat panel - as main FCP screen)
    Apple Cinema HD Display (23" flat panel - as HD monitor)
    I already own Final Cut Studio and run FCP 5.1.1
    My questions are:
    1. Is the above hard drive set up fast enough for 8 and/or 10 bit uncompressed HD/HDV editing?
    2. Will I need any extra hardware - besides the graphics card - in order to see every single pixel of 1920 x 1080 footage?
    I know others on the Apple Discussions forums have asked similar questions but I am still not certain which set up is best for me.
    Thanks in advance.
    P.S. Dear Mr Jobs. Thanks in advance for allowing PAL users of FCP to edit 720 footage from Panasonic's HVX-200 camcorder.

    I have just found out that my plans for a Mac Pro with 4 internal drives (one as boot drive, the other three striped as footage RAID) will NOT be fast enough to edit uncompressed HD material.
    I have just read this on the Black Magic Design website:
    Blackmagic Disk Speed Test reported about 170 MB/sec which was easily fast enough for HD uncompressed 10 bit. However this three-disk internal solution is more suited to people needing simple capture and playback of HD, such as designers and effects artists. They just want simple clip capture and playback and the built-in three-disk array is a great solution for them. There are also newer 750 GB disks, which are faster, and so performance could increase further.
    For editors who have hundreds of cuts and/or effects in their projects, we would strongly recommend an external disk array with multiple disks.
    http://www.blackmagic-design.com/support/detail.asp?techID=60#intel_tiger
    An external RAID system will have to be the way forward for me for now. Thanks to you all for trying to answer my questions.

  • Premiere CC and Media Encoder crashing new Mac Pro

    Since installing CC on my new Mac Pro (Late 2013) Premiere and Adobe Media Encoder have been continually crashing my system.
    At first, my comp would freeze and I'd have to hard restart, then it switched to rebooting on in's own. This would happen 10-20 times a day while editing.
    This began shortly after I synced settings from a previous version of PP but since I've installed new RAM; reinstalled CC/PP; reformatted my HDD and reinstalled Mavericks, CC, PP; and have not synced my settings. I've also tried editing multiple projects of different sizes with different media types -- all are experiencing the same problems.
    When I edit the same projects on my MBP, everything works fine.
    Recently, I have disabled GPU acceleration in all of my PP projects and that seems to have solved the problem.
    My office received 3 Pros at the same time with the same hardware configurations and software -- I am the only one experiencing this problem.
    Here are some specs:
    Late 2013 Mac Pro
    2.7 Ghz 12-Core Intel Xeon E5
    64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 ECC
    AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
    All drivers, CC, and software is up to date.
    So what do I do now?
    Any help is much appreciated!

    I am on Windows, but have a few saved Mac discussions that may help (or, may not... but free to read)

  • Photoshop CS2 Trial Install Crash on Mac Pro

    Well, I've seen the benchmark sites running Photoshop CS2 on a Mac Pro, but when I try to install the trial version, it crashs during the install process. I tried re-installing Mac OS X and re-installing Photoshop first thing, but with the same result.
    A search only brought up a previously known issue with QuickTime 7.1, but the fix was to update to 7.1.1 - since my install has QT 7.1.2 this doesn't seem applicable.
    Doom3 is the only other Rosetta app I've tried, and it runs fine - heck, I didn't even initially realize that the demo is the PPC-only version.
    Has anyone else gotten it successfully installed? I don't want to spring out the cash for the full thing until I know it works (and I want to test out the Kodak Digital ROC plug-in to make sure it works as well.)
    (I'm asking here since my lack of search results leads me to think it might be Mac Pro specific.)
    Take care,
    P.M.
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   (2.66/160GB/7300GT/2GB/BT + 250GB PATA drive)

    This worked for me....
    Restart
    During restart, hold Ctrl + Command + P + R to reset the PRAM
    After this, the computer will flash and reboot again and should boot into the Mountain Lion Installer.
    Good luck.

  • Photoshop CS4 crashes on Mac Pro – log mention "ATIRadeonX1000GLDriver" etc.

    Hi!
    Since switching from Photoshop CS3 to Photoshop CS4 one users here at work started to get stability problems.
    He said it happens mostly when ”painting” layer masks.
    Mac Pro (first generation) 2.66 GHz
    Mac OS X 10.5.6
    5 GB RAM
    Photoshop CS4 Standard version 11.0.1
    Working on a server share via AFP (Helios)
    Here's one crash log that mentions ”ATIRadeonX1000GLDriver” among other things:
    http://home.mac.se/star-affinity/photoshop_cs4_crash_ati.html
    Here's another that talks about ”com.apple.HIServices” and other things:
    http://home.mac.se/star-affinity/photoshop_cs4_crash_hiservices.html
    Any ideas what's causing this?
    Is something still remaining from the CS3 installation that's causing conflict? Shall I clear the caches?
    I'm thankful for any suggestions.

  • FCP won't launch on new Mac Pro Tower

    I just got a new Mac Pro Tower and installed Final Cut Studio, but Final Cut Pro won't launch. It just hangs on the opening splash screen and I can't even force quit out of it. Same thing happens if I try to open an FCP project. I have run all the updates, trashed prefs, etc.
    Any ideas?

    OK....so I think I found the problem even though it makes no sense to me. It seems that if I have my DVCam deck (which is connected via a 4-pin firewire to 9-pin firewire cable) powered on while I try to launch FCP, it causes FCP to hang on the splash screen. If I turn the deck off, and launch FCP, it launches perfectly.....and it continues to work after I power the deck on. Very bizarre behavior but I have tested it about 5 times now and it works fine when the deck is powered off and hangs when the deck is powered on. Anybody else have a simliar issie?

  • Crashes with Mac Pro and Wacom Cintiq?

    Anyone else here running a Mac Pro with a Wacom Cintiq? I am having issues with this configuration since I updated to 10.5.3. Mac OS X would crash while I am using the Cintiq.
    I have an 8-Core Mac Pro (Early 2008) with the stock ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT with 256MB GDDR3 memory (two dual-link DVI). I got a Wacom Cintiq 20WSX and I am running it as a secondary display with a 30" Apple Cinema Display. I mainly use Adobe Flash CS3 to do animation.
    I was able to run with this set up for a month trouble-free until I noticed it crashing (gray curtain of death) recently. That was when I updated to 10.5.3.
    I tried to downgrade back to 10.5.1 and found that the set up runs more stable with that version. However, I have some apps (such as Aperture 2) that I need to run, hence my persistence in running under 10.5.3, or 10.5.4 even.
    I have the latest Wacom Tablet driver installed, by the way.
    I just wanted to know if anyone else have this same set up but is having no issues. I would love to know what settings they are using that makes their setup trouble free. Or am I out of luck and should just revert back to 10.5.1?
    Thanks.

    Hey, hopfully anyone here could possible help me with this...
    I have a MBP and when I bought a Wacom Cintiq half a year ago, Wacom told me already that there are problems with the NVIDIA 8600M GT. At the beginning everything run normal. Whenever I used the Cintiq to draw or just as a second monitor. BUT whenever I didn't connect it to my MBP my Intuos was not recognized (the tablet prefs where not in the System Preferences). As soon as I plug in the Cintiq and would un-plug it right after, the Intuos is recongized (and the Wacom prefs where in the System Preferences). When I installed the latest Wacom software (I un-installed the old one before), it seemed to work. I started my computer and it recognized the Intuos straight and the Wacom prefs, YES! BUT since yesterday, I believe the first time I used the Cintiq since I installed the new Wacom drivers, the same problem appeared again. In my System Preferences I get the message, "A USB tablet was not found when the system started....". This is driving me insane, to basically need a second monitor to plug in first in order to use my tablet?!?!?! This way I am not able to use my tablet when I am mobile and that is a big handicap....
    Thanks.
