Final Cut Express 4 will not launch on my Mac

I have a mac OS X 10.5.8 and I have bought final cut express 4 but it will not launch on the computer. Please help.

There are solutions on this forum, search "Final Cut Express won't open," for some of them. Updating to FCE 4.01 is one solution. For HD it is another.

  • Upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard and final cut express 4 will not work

    upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard and final cut express 4 will not launch but my final cut express HD 3.0 version comes up. I reinstall my final cut express 4 upgrade disc and it still will not launch.
    Where do I go from here?

    You installed from the discs, right?
    What happens when you try to launch? What are you doing to launch and what happens you do it? Can't see you computer from here. If you probably need to contact Apple with an installation issue on a new computer.

  • Final CUt Studio 2 will not run on my Mac Pro & Macbook Pros simultaneously

    I was under the impression that the licensing contract for FCPS2 allowed for the software to be installed and run on a desktop and a portable machine simultaneously. Am I wrong? I purchased Final Cut Studio 2 legally, and have installed it on my Mac Pro and my Macbook Pro, but if I try to open one of the FCS apps while one is running on the other computer, I get a protection error message and have to shut down the app. Does anyone know a workaround to this other than shutting off airport on one of the machines?

    Yes, you are wrong.
    The license allows for the installation of a copy on each machine but they can not run simultaneously. The intention is to allow users to work with a laptp while away from the main editing machine. If you need the capability running two copies at the same time, buy another copy.
    Good luck,

  • Final cut 10.1 will not output or input thru Blackmagic intensity shuttle thunderbolt on 2013 Retina MBP while Premere Cs6 does

    Final Cut 10.1 will not output or input thru Blackmagic intensity shuttle thunderbolt on 2013 Retina MBP while Premere Cs6 does

    As I mentioned, Premere Cs6 has no issues with the BM Intensity Shuttle Thunderbolt. This proves that the Mac sees the shuttle. iMovie, like FCPX 10.1 does not see it. Not sure if this is an Apple issue or a BlackMagic issue. I plan to contact BlackMagic on Monday out of curiosity. This issue is more of a surprise than a dead end. Happily there are easy workarounds for capture. I use the BlackMagic software to capture. My main issue seems to be that I am unable to use FCPX to output through the Shuttle. Fortunately I have a Mac Pro and an older BlackMagic card which has worked. It is so very nice to skim video on an SSD.  No lag and no wear and tear on a mechanical hard drive. The 1Tb Apple SSD is shockingly fast. It is a new world.

  • Safari will not launch on my mac

    Safari will not launch on my mac.  I have tried numerous web sites and the blue bar goes about half-way and stops.  Any suggestions?  I have a wireless connections and appears to be working fine.  I can send and recieve email with no problems.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Final Cut Express scratch disk not found.

    I launch up final cut express and then it says "one or more scratch disks couldn't not be accesed." and it siad that it was the final cut express documents folder so I went on that and put all the permissions on read and write but it still said the same thing. Then it said it's location was the trash but nothing was in the trash so now I am very confused.

    Your Default Scratch Disc setting is Macintosh HD>Users>Home>Documents>Final Cut Express Documents.
    This is where all stuff goes unless you change your FCE>System Settings>Scratch Disc Tab.
    Open the FCE System Settings>Scratch Disc, the top line, with the check marks, are where current captures go to.
    If you decide to rename clips etc. do so within the FCE application and not through the Finder as the later will loose the links and FCE will have to re-connect.
    If you right click a clip in the Browser or Timeline you will see the Reveal in Finder option, this will show you the file path to where the clip is located on your system.
    If you see a red slash through the name, it's Offline and the path has somehow been broken. Reconnect it.

    OK, supports recommendation works. He told me the App Store version has some issues with writing the pro files out (where the retail version does it correctly).
    He had me uninstall (move) the app to my desktop, download and install the trial with the trial key, then replace the file with my App Store downloaded one.
    It WORKED....for the first time I've got Aperture and Final Cut Express loaded together and working.

  • HT3835 Will final cut express 3.5 run on the newer mac os 10.8 or 10.9?

    I am going to be purchasing a MacBook Pro when the newest model is released. I am wondering if I can run my Final Cut Express 3.5 with the latest operating system.

    I've been using it with Lion and Mountain Lion and it is working well. It was updated to 3.5.1 via Software Update.
    However, you will have a problem with the installer as I got the "PPC applications are not supported" when I tried to install it in Lion after doing a fresh install (although FCE is a Universal application, the installer appears to be PPC). So, I followed the file locations in this article and moved every file from my Snow Leopard partition to the Lion partition into the same folder/location. Restarted and it has been working since.

  • Final Cut Express 4.0 - Not actually doing deinterlacing....

    I've selected it many times, tested and tested and tested, rebooted, restarted... still checked the 'deinterlace source footage' does NOT seem to be doing it's job in Final Cut Express 4.0 when I try to export using Quick Time Converter.
    thoughts/comments/Recommendations? My video is always interlaced and fuzzy !
    Funny thing is that it worked yesterday.
    thanks in advanced to any input.
    thank you.
    Dean

    Final Cut Express does not support 24fps video, and never has.  And it cannot convert 24fps to other frame rates.  If you try using 24fps material in FCE you will get unpredictable behavior, as you have experienced.
    You would have to convert 24fps material outside FCE before importing the video.  It may also be possible to use Nattress Standards Conversion however using that in FCE requires some undocumented workarounds.

  • MPEG 1  to MPEG 4 then file import to final cut express ??  Not happening

    Hello, I am complete newbie ! I have mpeg 1 files I am trying to edit. Final Cut won't allow me to import.
    Used Handbrake to convert MPEG 1 to MPEG 4 , still would not allow me to import.
    What to do ?
    -Tony

    Use MPEG Streamclip to convert your MPEG1 videos to either QuickTime/DV-NTSC or +QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec.+
    Also make sure you select the matching *Easy Setup* in FCE before you create the sequence you want to edit these videos in. This is so the sequence settings match your clip properties when you import the converted files.
    Handbrake is not the right app for this purpose.
    Also, I highly recommend that you get a copy of Tom Wolsky's excellent book Final Cut Express Editing Workshop and watch the tutorials on Izzy Video

  • Final Cut Express timeline & view not working

    I seem to have locked my Final Cut Express project.  The timeline has hatchmarks and I can't doubleclick on a clip (photo) and have it appear in viewer. I don't know what I have done. i need to edit some of the motion in the photographs.  Any suggestions?

    On the left hand side of the timeline, click on the lock symbol to unlock the track.

  • Final Cut is Crashing--Will not Open

    OK, I have repaired permissions, trashed preferences, unloaded all the audio plugins (mostly because they take forever when FCP opens), and finally reinstalled FCP Studio 2.
    The only thing on my startup disk is OSX SL and programs. I always work off external drives. I have had this setup for some time now - since SL came out and all of a sudden FCP will not open, and I get the following Crash report. All other FCP Studio2 apps open.
    I also have a recent install of Logic Studio, but FCP was working after this for a few weeks.
    I have also seen this post that refers to illegal copies of FCP.
    "Yes the answer is simple. The new prokit update recommended for users of FCP will DISABLE any version of FCP that might have come from a less-than-legitimate source if you know what I mean. very clever.
    I got a new copy of FCP 6 and it installed and works perfectly but I won't be downloading any more apple updates unless I'm positive they don't contain any more "fixes" like this."
    I have used FCP since version 1.x and have dutifully upgraded, except for the latest FCP Studio 3 upgrade. Listen, I need to use this program
    Please Help!!

    Shane,
    Thanks!! I am aware of that software, after today. I will look into it. Is it through the FCS Maintenance Pack that I will have the ability to disable the offending plugin?
    That is a bummer that it is that plugin as I wind up using that a lot for footage that is submitted by certain "monkeys" to the projects I work on. I actually call it the "Monkey Cam" filter.
    In any case, I appreciate your help here. I removed the plugin from its folder and tries to open FCP and ...it crashed again. So it might be another plugin?
    There was a lot more to the crash results, as I have a lot of plugins, but the board would not let me post such a long post. Would you be open to me adding this and running that too? I am not sure I want to drop the $130 or so on FCS Maintenance, and am kind of tossing around upgrading to FCS3 instead - in hopes that will fix the issue?
    Let me know and I will post the remaining code. Mahalo.

  • My Final Cut pro x will not let me do 1 frame stills

    I am working with a Time lapse and final cut x will not let me make the duration any shorter than 2 seconds. How do I over ride?

    The selection duration can be made very small, but of course it's very difficult to deal with a one frame selection. Usually the best thing is to convert the image sequence to video before bringing it into FCP, or you can put all the items in the timeline, select them, and set the duration to one or two frames.

  • Final Cut X suddenly will not take my youtube credentials

    I've been using Final Cut X to upload directly to Youtube for many months.
    Suddenly today, it will not take my YouTube credentials on ANY of my 3 YouTube accounts...
    It just gives me an "Invalid Account Name or Password" every single time. 
    I'm still able to upload to my vimeo account.   Anyone else experiencing this?  It happened out of nowhere.  I upload 2-3 videos a day.  None of my passwords have changed.

    Hi, I am having this trouble now with FCP X not accepting my YouTube details. I can get to the
    GOOGLE account settings, select SECURITY, but I cannot then find CONNECTED APPLICATIONS AND SITES.
    so I can't then click REVIEW PERMISSIONS
    Please help
    Thank you

  • Final Cut Server Metadata will not transfer to FCP

    Hello,
    I am new to Final Cut Server and am encountering a couple of issues. A big one is that the metadata from quicktime clips stored into final cut server will not transfer when I put these same clips from the server into FCP.
    Any idea why? The metadata is with each asset in the server but won't transfer when the clips are transferred into FCP.
    Any suggestion would be great!
    Thanks.

    FCP only supports specific types of metadata.  What specific metadata fields are you looking to export with the clip?  Also, "how" are you getting these clips from FCSvr to FCP?
