FCP X works with MBP 2007

Hi,
I saw a couple of posts regarding the system requirements for FCP X. I'm working on a MBP mid-2007, the graphics card does have Open CL, but does NOT meet the official system requirements, in that it only has 128MB of VRAM.
Yet, I could download, install and can now run FCP X. I do get the beach ball a bit, but since I only plan to see what the new FCP is all about, that is good enough for me.
Hope this might be useful for some people!!
Cheers,
Colin

Hi John,
thanks, that's certainly a thought, but I'm quite happy with the current system at the moment. As I've said, I only wanted to see what the new FCP was all about. Not much, I must say. Having spent the last 10 years editing for the telly on FCP a lot, I am glad that I started honing my Avid skills again 3 years ago.
Bad move, Apple. I know you should never get "attached" to a company or a product, but when you spend so much time working with a certain tool, it does become very dear to you (and it feeds you and your family). Well, let's see what happens over the next couple of months, but for now, FCPX may both be the future and history at the same time.
Aw, sorry, got carried away.
Cheers,
Colin

    I think your Macbook came with a Mini DVI port instead of a Mini Display port.

  • What earlier version of FCP will work with the intel-3processor?

    what earlier version of FCP will work with the intel-3 processor?

    The version of the CR designer that the reports were created in is really not that important. Though more on that below. What you need is Crystal Reports XI R2A (11.5.x). That is the last version of CR to ship the Report Designer Component  (RDC) that you are presumably using at this time. Note that this version is out of support thus no fixes, no phone support, though we welcome your queries on these forums. To obtain CR XI R2A you will have to contact sales; 866-681-3435. Do not get CR 2008 (12.x) as this version does not ship the RDC and only has the SDK for .NET and Java.
    Re. version of the reports. While the version of the designer the reports were created in should not be that important, the older the designer, the more potential problems you may run into. Updating the reports to CR XI R2A is highly advised. You can do this manually by simply opening the reports in the designer and saving them - making sure they still run once that is done. Alternatively, you can do this in code by simply using the .SaveAs method, or exporting to rpt file format. This may not however update the database connectivity correctly (the database engine was completely rewritten in CR 9) and testing will be needed to make sure these reports still work. This is particularly true of your version 8 reports. Version 9 reports and later should be OK.

  • 1080p. Can FCP X work with it?

    I have a client (wildlife researcher) who needs to create some QT files for a scientific project. He needs the highest frame rate possible (he has a prosumer camera that shoots 1080p) Can FCP X work with 1080p? I told him that 720p has the same frame rate but he would like the added resolution. What do I do?
    Best.
    tom

    Since FCPX will let you create a custom 1080p project with the following frame rate options:
    23.98p, 24p, 25p, 29.97p, 30p, 50p, 59.94p and 60p
    I would say: yes, FCPX will support a 1080/60p project for the highest available frame rate. However, realize that 1080p can be *any* of those listed frame rates. The only thing you can discern for sure by "1080p" is that the video is single field "progressive" and not interlaced.
    1080/60p is unsupported in AVCHD (so far) so your camera will either deliver some other format, and not AVCHD. The highest supported format in AVCHD (again, so far) is 1080/60i.
    Other 60p size formats larger than 1080 supported by FCPX are 2K and 4K.

  • ADC CD no longer works with MBP

    I have an old ADC Cinema Display which has been working fine with my new MBP 17" until I fired it up this morning and no display. There were no new software installs, etc. since last night when it worked and this morning when it didn't. The display and ADC/DVI adapter work fine on my tower so it's not the CD or cable. And another monitor works fine on the MBP so it's not the video card or the DVI jack. Also the USB functions on the back of the CD still work with the MBP and there is power - just no PIX. I've plugged and unplugged everything - power cycled - no results. Any ideas would be most appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Ah, so it's not even being detected. That means a failure in the DDC communication channel, which happens over two wires embedded in the video cable. It's hard to say what is happening, especially in light of your thorough mix-and-match matrix of tests you have tried. But I would suspect the problem lies with the ACD. It would be best if you could try in on yet another Mac, like another notebook Mac, to see how it responds. If it fails to work correctly with two modern Mac notebook computers, then I would definitely suspect a problem in the monitor. Good luck.

  • BE Analyzer not working with Excel 2007 / Gui 710

    Hi
    I am working on a machine that has MS Office 2007 installed.
    Here I am experiencing problems with BEx Analyzer.
    The program starts up fine, I can connect to the BI server, see my excisting queries and workbooks when I press "Open" (created on a PC with Office 2003 installed) but as soon as I try to execute either of them I get an error:
    "A Critical program error occured.
    The program has to close.
    Please refer to the trace for further information."
    The same error occurs if I try to insert a query to a new workbook.
    Background info:
    SAP Gui 710, Patch 1
    Support Pack Stack 12
    According to the documentation I have found the combination of MS Excel 2007 and Gui 710 should be supported.
    Johnny H.
    PS I have added the SAP folders to my "trusted locations", and I have also marked the "Trust access to the VBA project object model" in the Excel options.

    Hi,
    I'm running SAP Gui 710 patch 3 and the BW add on 710 patch 1 on a Vista with Office 2007 and it runs well. I would suggest to download the latest patches on service.sap.com/swdc

  • Superdrive external enclosures that work with MBP?

    I just replaced my superdrive in my Macbook Pro, and I want to put it in an external USB 2.0 enclosure that will work with OSX.
    Can anyone recommend a inexpensive one that will be compatible with my MBP? OWC sells one for roughly $30, but I am seeing some enclosures on Amazon for $10-15, I just don't know which ones would be compatible

    I think this would suit you, but it's also $30

  • Can't get Desktop Software configured properly to work with Outlook 2007 and Blackberry 8703E

    I have a Blackberry 8703E and I have Outlook 2007 on my laptop. I keep trying to install the Desktop software but don't know what option to choose, how to configure it to recognize Outlook, etc. My goal is to be able to sync my contacts, appointments, tasks, etc. between the laptop and my Blackberry. I have no clue what I am doing or how to install and configure the software to work.
    Also, I am going to uninstall the Desktop software and want to know what the link is to download the most current version that will work with my phone and my laptop (running Vista). I do not subscribe to the Blackberry service but only want to sync between my computer and the phone.
    PLEASE HELP! I am not knowledgeable in this stuff and any detailed instructions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks a bunch!
    Wade Rearic

    Don't know if you got your answer by now, but thought I'd try to help.
    First, let me preface by saying I use Vista, not XP, but my Outlook is 2007.
    Next, you need to be careful as to which versions of the software you use both (a) on your Blackberry desktop and (b) on your Blackberry itself.  For example, I use the 8703e via Verizon, but so far the phone's software only goes up to 4.2, which is two iterations short of Blackberry's latest smartphone software.  Why do they do this?  Because they typically introduce the new software via a new phone via an "exclusive" with a certain carrier, leaving all other users to either salivate or switch to the "exclusive" carrier.  Over time (6 months to a year) the "new" software may get rolled out to patient users with (by then) "older" phones, but they clearly want to incentivize consumers to just upgrade to new phones via special carriers.
    As for the Desktop software, it is easy to get tripped up here, as Blackberry's download site in not very intuitive for this.  Your problem could be that you downloaded and installed a Blackberry Desktop Software that is too advanced a version for your phone.  (To add further confusion, the desktop software tends to have version numbers similar to the the phone software, such as "4.2.")
    Bottom line: call your help number of your carrier to get the correct info for both sets of software for your phone.
    Once all the right software/drivers are installed, the Desktop interface si fairly user-friendly.  From a few choices you can backup your Blackberry data; synchronize it (if you are not already doing that wirelessly), etc.
    Hope this helps.

  • FCP not working with Leopard

    Every time I try and launch FCP5 Studio 2 it gives me the "This application Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly." Anyone have a solution to this? Anyone else experienced this?
    Do I just have to wait for an update?

    Having same problem with FCP v 6.0.1 and tried the FCP Rescue 6..... Also does not work with Leopard.
    I am just about to try this proceedure.
    Delete the User Preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Final Cut Pro back to its original settings. This will not impact your project files, but you should verify your Scratch Disk location setting after doing this. To reset your Final Cut Pro user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
    In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences—the tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
    Remove the “com.apple.finalcutpro.plist” file from the Preferences folder.
    Remove the “Final Cut Pro User Data” folder from the Preferences folder.
    Will report shortly.

    The good news is that the new PIK compatible with SharePoint 2007 has been officially released as part of BOE R2 SP3.  The bad news is that I have not figured out how to install it!  SP3 installs from downloaded files automatically and does not extract installation files for the PIK.  Previous installs of the PIK involved running the setup.exe for the PIK located in the Add-On's (or similar) folder of the BOE install files/media.  No such luck with SP3. I have an open support case on this and will hopefully have more info soon.

  • Anyone know if the StarTech Express eSATA card works with MBP/10.6?

    Hi - maybe a bad assumption, but according to StarTech, their eSATA ExpressCard works with 10.4 and 10.4 - so I assumed it would work with 10.6. The model number is ECESATA1.
    My original MacBook Pro recognizes the card because I see the icon in the top bar - however none of the two eSATA drives I've tried to connect get recognize or can be accessed via Finder or Disk Utility.
    I verified that the drive, cable, and card works because I verified on a Windows XP machine.
    StarTech's support is not open this weekend and nothing definitive via Googling - so I thought I'd ask here.
    Thanks
    JC

    Hi John -
    I am about to buy a StarTech duplicating dock, but finding out which card will work with it through my expresscard slot is a nightmare.
    Are you using the card that has two ports on it, and so has one drive per port, or are you using Port Multiplication to have two drives through one port ?
    I want to get this one, which I think is the same one you are using:
    http://www.startech.com/product/ECESATA1-1-Port-Flush-Mount-ExpressCard-34mm-eSA TA-II-Controller-Adapter-Card
    Startech support tell me to download the new driver from silicon website, but I still read threads which say there is a problem with it.
    Its the PMultiplication feature that is essential for what I need.
    Your experience and also driver that you are using would be very helpful before i blow £300 on kit that isnt going to work properly !
