FCP closes as soon as I  opening it

when I open FCP everything looks right and than it goes back to the finder. I've tryed the rescue download and still nothing. can you help solve this proplem?

Hey Blastoff,
I had the exact same problem the other day. What you need to do is uninstall FCP and then reinstall it using your installation DVDs. Follow the process posted by Jerry Hofmann in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2131639&#2131639
Also, for your convenience, here is the same process that he describes there:
1) Close FCP
2) Go to: /users/username/library/preferences/
a. Delete the com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
b. Delete the FCP User data folder.
3) Go to: Applications
a. Delete FCP application
b. Delete FCP HD addition easy setups folder.
4) Go to: /library/applicaton support/fcp system support/
a. Delete Custom Settings folder
b. Delete Plugins folder
5) Go to: /library/receipts/ and delete the following:
a. AnalogPAL.pkg
b. AppleIntermediateCodec.pkg
c. DigitalPAL.pkg
d. DVCproHDCodec.pkg
e. FinalCutPro.pkg
f. FinalCutproHDUpdate4.5.pkg
g. FinalCutProHelp.pkg
h. HDVCodec.pkg
i. IMXCodec.pkg
j. Uncompressed422.pkg
k. VideoOutSupport.pkg
6) Insert the FCP 5.0 upgrade disk and re-install.
7) Run the OSX Disk Utility
a. Select the OSX drive
b. Repair the Disk Permissions.
c. Reboot.
8)Run Software update to get back to 5.0.4.
That worked for me. If it doesn't help, come on back.

  • HT5100 Itunes u just opens and closes immediately when I try to use it. It worked previously, and now it doesn't.  I tried uninstalling it and then installing it again and it still closes as soon as I open it. Other apps do not do this. What should I do?

    iTunes u closes as soon as I open it. What should I do?

    I would start with this FAQ Entry first, if you have not done so yet: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/792580?tstart=0
    It starts with a checklist for getting PrE set up properly, then moves into tuning up one's system and OS (you have done a lot of that already), and then goes into troubleshooting tips. Note: those tips rather work up quickly in "degree of difficulty," and DO become quite technical, but things like the "Finding Clues" link will give some tools, that might prove useful, like the use of Windows' Event Viewer to track down issues.
    One of the first things to look at would be your video driver. I would go to the video card's/chip's mfgr's. Web site, and check for a later driver. Do not trust Windows, or any utility to tell you if you have the latest driver. If there is not a newer video driver, or it will not install properly on your system, be sure to check with the HP Web site, as HP, Dell, Lenovo, and some other mfgrs. will re-package video drivers to suit their specific setup.
    One troubleshooting technique, that might prove useful (however, those deleted programs bother me a bit here), would be to create a System Restore Point for now (see Windows Help for doing this with your particular OS version). Then, boot to Safe Mode, and choose an older System Restore Point, from when things did work. This might take some trial-and-error, to get back far enough. Test. At the worst, you will only have lost a few minutes, as you have your new System Restore Point for now, to fall back on.
    Good luck,

  • Premiere CC always closes as soon as it opens.

    Premiere CC always closes as soon as it opens. If I exit or close the welcome window the program shuts down. When I restart the program again the welcome window still appears. I changed to 'do not display in preferences and still shows on open.  Any ideas? This happens every time. If I chose start new project program opens.

    Please sign out from Premiere and sign in again. If that doesn't fix the problem, try this:
    Sign out from the Creative Cloud app and Quit it (Quit option will be available after a few seconds).
    Now move the following folders to desktop:
    1) SLCache
    Windows: OS Drive\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
    Mac: Library/Application Support/Adobe
    2) SLStore
    Windows: OS drive\ProgramData\Adobe
    Mac: Library/Application Support/Adobe
    3) OOBE
    Windows: OS Drive\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe
    Mac: /User/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Now launch Premiere Pro and sign in with your Adobe ID.
    NOTE: Make sure your Anti Virus/Firewall is not blocking any Adobe activation servers. Alternately, you can also check your 'hosts' file for any changes.
    Please report back if this doesn't work as well.
    Thanks,

  • An upgrade for my IPod 3rd gen  and now all my APPS close as soon as they open, except for the first page and the bottom line.

    I just downloaded the latest upgrade for my 3rd gen IPod and now most of the Apps close as soon as they open. Only the first page of Apps and the bottom line will operate. Does anyone know of a solution. I checked with common problems and I don't have other Apps open.

    If the ipod was completely drained of power, you have to leave the ipod connected to a power source (Like your PC) for up to an hour before it will have enough power to power up and be seen by windows and iTunes.

  • Program closes as soon as it opens - indesign cc - can anyone help please?

  • Ical closes as soon as i open it

    I just got a new macbook pro today and i synced it with my gmail calendars and now as soon as i open the ical app it crashes.

    "upgrading" to 10.4.11 on my home iMac ended up breaking Safari (so 3.0 crashed every couple pages). Someone suggested just "upgrading" to Leopard to fix the problem. Good news, Safari is much more stable (still a few crashes tho) on the home iMac.
    However, for some reason, just having that machine upgraded to iCal 3 keeps iCal 2.0.5 from staying open on my office Mac. I've turned off publish/subscribe and logged out of .Mac, but it still won't stay open (running 10.4.11).
    Considering moving the work machine to Leopard, too, but wondering what else will stop working, like something critical to actually getting work done.
    HELP! Apple! Fix iCal!

  • My preferences close as soon as they open.

    My preferences opens then closes almost as soon as the window is open. It then wants to report the closure. Ive checked the communities and google but not found an answer yet.
    my Lion 10.7.2 is up to date.
    Any ideas welcome

    Start from your recovery system. OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion includes a built in set of utilities in the Recovery System. Restart your Mac and hold down the Command key and the R key (Command-R), and keep holding them until the Apple icon appears, indicating that your Mac is starting up. After the Recovery System is finished starting up, you should see a desktop with a OS X menu bar and a "Mac OS X Utilities" application window. Note: If you see a login window or your own desktop and icons, it is possible that you didn't hold Command-R early enough. Restart and try again.
    When your computer finishes starting up, choose Disk Utility from the Utilities window.
    Click the First Aid tab. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    Select your OS X volume.
    Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.

  • Finder window closes as soon as it opens

    I have some recovered data that has been giving me problems.  After copying the folder back to a rebuilt MBP, the finder window closes immediately upon opening that folder.  Any ideas on what exactly is corrupt or forcing this window to close?
    MBP 17, 10.8.2

    I guess if this were happening to me, I would suspect that one or more files in that folder is sufficiently corrupted to kill the Finder.   I would create a new folder and, using Terminal and its mv command, move files one by one into the new folder, testing to see if the original folder can be opened after each step.  Others may have better plans....

  • Photoshop CS3 Closes as soon as it opens...

    Hi all,
    I have PS CS3.
    Its been working fine for as long as I can remember. However the last time I used it I tried (for the first time) browsing using the Adobe dialog, instead of OS one, and also using Browse... to view files. The browse dialog never appeared, but I thought nothing of it at the time.
    Since then whenever I try to open PS it flashes up for a second, the seems to close itself, before the splash screen even appears.
    Anything know whats causing this? Ive uninstalled my flash 9 player, which was recently upgraded, thinking it might have been the cause.
    Any and all help is appreciated,
    Thanks,
    John

  • Photoshop CC closes as soon as it opens

    I recently purchased Adobe Photoshop CC, but every time I try to execute the app it simply closes straight back down. No error messages and I don't know where to find any logs
    I've tried reinstalling the app
    I've tried using the Adobe CC cleaner and reinstalling, but no success.
    Any ideas?
    Running Win 7 x64

    Greetings
    Yes, I see the splash screen
    No I don't see any errors during install
    I have tried disabling MSE and this made no difference
    I tried running as an administrator again without success
    The only failures I can see in the log are to do with Proxy errors...:

  • Program closes as soon as it opens.

    I tried to open Garageband today (I haven't used it in about a month) and it took an extremely long time to open. As soon as it did open, it closed before I could do anything. All I get is the "Program quit unexpectedly" message. Anybody know what could be wrong? Thanks in advance!

    First thing to try: locate the file fopr the project you were last working on and move it out of the folder it's in. Now see whether GB will open. If not, trash (or at least move) the preferences:
    (user)>Library>Preferences>com.apple.garagedband.cs
    and
    (user)>Library>Preferences>com.apple.garagedband.plist
    If that cures it, you will need to re-enter your preferences, including selecting your input and output.

  • Downloaded book but closes as soon as it opens

    Downloaded a purchased book but it closes within seconds of opening.

    Have you tried closing the iBooks app completely and then seeing if you can read the book when you re-open iBooks ? From the home screen (i.e. not with iBooks 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iBooks app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    Otherwise you could try deleting that book and re-downloading it, or deleting the iBooks app and re-downloading it and all your books (if you try this then have you got copies of all your books on your computer just in case they are no longer available in the store for re-download ?)
