Final Cut missing from Studio 5 installation

It took over an hour to install Final Cut Studio (purchased 5 academic licenses) and lots of disk shuffling. At the end of it all, the Final Cut application itself is missing. Or is it me that is missing? Something?

quite possibly. I would think if it's greyed out the app that checks your system to see that it can be installed is saying no it can't. However if it allowed "motion" to be installed it might not be the gfx card but a ram or other issue. Motion does its work via the gfx card as do the fxplug plugins in FCP Studio. since you bought so many licenses I'd call apple and try to resolve the issue. It's gonna cost you something above that which you budgeted however it's a great set of tools

  • Final Cut Pro 5 Studio Installation

    Is there a work around to install Final Cut Pro 5 Studio to another drive other than the Applications folder on the Start-up Disk? I have 2 LaCie 500 Gb hard drives available via Firewire 800.
    Between the operating system with iLife, Final Cut Pro 5 Studio, and Garage Band Rythem Pack, 60 Gb of this laptops 100 Gb hard drive is already used.
    And lastly, if not possible to load in another hard drive, is the content for each application (such as templates) where most of the space is being taken up? I see that when loading, I had the option to load these to a custom location.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You

    /Users/Shared contains all the templates and media for Motion (5.91 GB). /Library/Application Support/ contains folders for LiveType (10.93 GB), DVD Studio Pro (8.7 GB), and Sound Track Pro (315 MB).

  • I had downloaded and used Final Cut Pro 7 (studio 3) on my mac, but it died. Can I download it to my new computer without buying a new copy? I'm not sure of the number of installations for academic copies. How would I do this?

    AH...good. 
    There is no limit on the times you can install it from the DVDs. There's just a limit as to being able to run it on multiple machines AT THE SAME TIME. If your old computer dies, or you sell it (please reformat the drive so they don't get FCP for free), then you can install on a new computer fine.  And you are allowed to install on (1) desktop and (1) laptop at the same time as well...but only use it on one machine at any given time. Meaning you can use it on the desktop at work, and then when away from the office, on your laptop.
    Long story short...you can install it fine without any issues.

  • HT201109 Why can't I open a final cut project from one computer in another computer?

    I'm using Final Cut Pro Trial. Why can't I open a final cut project from one computer in another computer? When I try to open the project on my desktop it doesn't recognize the format. Please help!

    I downloaded FCPX trial on my laptop as well as on my desktop. I did some editing on my laptop but I need to get the project I created on my laptop onto my desktop. When I import the project onto my desktop the videos are Red and they say "Missing File."

  • Final Cut Pro 2 Studio CORPORATE EDITION ???

    i am looking to buy final cut from someone on craigslist - they say that it is a CORPORATE VERSION of FINAL CUT PRO 2 STUDIO - i asked if it was transferable and they said that i could not register it in my name but i would be able to upgrade it - is this true ?? - should i stay away

    'Corporate' is a code word among warz dudes and dudettes. It's supposed to mean you can install it and not get caught for using an invalid serial number.
    In this case, I suspect the seller is trying to give the impression the SN is a Volume License, usually purchased by corporations. That's why you would not be able to register it, and also the why you would not be able to upgrade it.
    Run away from this one. It's a scam.

  • Cannot download Final Cut Pro from the app store

    Hello,
    I cannot download Final Cut Pro from the app store.
    I says "Failed to download" and error has occurred
    What is wrong?
    is it my Macbook?

    I had a problem way back in the olden days, i.e., FCPX 10.0.2, and finally gave up and called the Apple Store using a land-line phone.
    Anyway, (this was a couple years ago), if I remember right, they passed me off to someone in the FCPX group and I got the App. However, this was not a really goo way to go because for many updates afterward, everytime I wanted to update I had to go thorugh the same ritual.
    Finally, probably around 10.0.8, things got "fixed" and since then I've been able to go direct and download it from the App Store without having to make a phone call.
    My suggestion would be to try calling the App Store. Maybe, if there is a "global problem" and they get a lot of calls, they will fix it.
    Heck, maybe write a Knowlede Base (KB) article about it.
    Disclaimer: I didn't check to see if there was one.

    If it's in the purchased page and doesn't download, you should contact Apple.

  • Does anyone know why- when I iport a one minute video project into Final Cut X from I Movie the resolution that looked alright in IMovie full screen becomes worst in final cut, full screen...but clear when it is in still position?

    Does anyone know why- when I import a one minute video project into Final Cut X from I Movie the resolution that looked alright full screen in I Movie instantly becomes worst on full screen in Final Cut X...but clear again when I stop it to still position?

    I'm new to video editing but I think I recall seeing an option in FCPX which lets you choose the video quality for the preview window. I think the window reduces the quality when playing back for performance reasons and so perhaps that is why it seems to have less quality when moved over to FCPX? Just a possibility, I'm sure one of the more experienced users can confirm or deny this theory.

    No. You simply sign in to the App Store and download it again. AppStore knows that you already paid for it.

  • Trouble restoring final cut pro from time machine

    I cant install registered version of final cut pro from time machine after system restore.  It asks for serial number, but I dont have it. How do I find it?

    I don't use time machine, but my understanding is that needing to re-authorize the software with the serial numbers when you do a restore from time machine is the way time machine works.

  • I have a newer MacBook Pro and I am trying to download my Final Cut Pro 7 Studio 2 on it. Is that possible or does the new MacBook Pro not support anything other than Final Cut Pro X?

    As Tom said the FCS forum is the better place to post the question.
    Here is Apple's best practices doc for installing both on the same system.
    BTW, FCP7 is part of the FCS 3 suite of apps.

  • How do I copy final cut express from my computer onto a laptop

    How do I copy final cut express from my computer onto a laptop?

    You don't.  Several of the system level components won't be installed properly if you copy or 'migrate' to a new computer.  You'll need to install from the original install discs.
