Final cut pro hd 4.5 doesn't work on my intel duo machine

My final cut pro hd is about three years old. When I got a new mac pro, I ported everything including applications over.
Not having used fcprohd for the last year, now, when I open the app in the intel machine, I get an error message asking for a later operating system, and an error message related to the video card. It works on my old power pc g4. Can I open and use final cut pro hd 4.5 on my intel duo processor machine, or do I need an upgrade? Is there an upgrade path to the newest version of fcpro which takes advantage of the duo intels?

hey there bradsea,
your version of FCP is not a Universal Binary. you'll need to upgrade to FCS2. there is an upgrade available if your version is not Academic. see this link:

    Close it and re-open holding down the Option key.
    Choose another Library and open it.
    The current Library or something in there may be corrupted in some manner.

    I have seen similar posts but don't know whether anyone has a solution.

    If you are new to FCP X it may be that you are doing something wrong but unless you give precise details of every move we will have no idea what that may be.

  • Every time I import an .fcpxml file into Final Cut Pro X, the timeline doesn't get imported

    So I had exported an .fcpxml file from one machine, which i had to format. So, after formatting the machine, each time I import the .fcpxml file into Final Cut Pro X, The timeline remains empty

    Use MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free software) to convert the media to something like ProRes 422, then import into FCP X.
    MPEG Streamclip can cope with many codecs.

  • Final Cut Pro X 10.0.07 not working with Mountain Lion?

    I have just installed Mountain Lion on my computer two weeks ago, and just now I needed to use Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7 to edit a video for a client.
    Every time I open FCPX it doesn't open normally.  It doesn't bring up it's normal purple background, just the wording.  And when it opens and I scroll over a video, it won't bring it up in the viewer.
    When I go to import footage, it opens the import window but it's just a grey screen.
    What can I do?  I need to have FCPX working by tonight!

    Use FCS Remover to trash the app and try reinstalling it.

  • Preview out in Final Cut Pro 6, doesnt seem to be working

  • Final Cut Pro 7.03 crashes, impossible to work with the system

    Hi,
    I have a mac pro with the following configuration:
    *2,4 Ghz westmere octa (mac pro 5,1)
    *24Gb Ram in 6x4gb FCM 1066MHz modules
    *DeckLink HD Extreme 3D video card
    *ATI Radeo HD 5770
    *NVIDEO Quattro 4000
    *Tempo Sata e2p esata controller
    I work a lot in final cut pro, but it crashes like every 5 minutes or even faster, sometimes i runs for 10 minutes without a crash. That is terrible and that 10k workstation is not usable...
    I already formatted the harddisk, re set up osx and fcs, installed every update for every part of my workstation but cannot fix it.
    Especially viewing clips as thumbnail galleries (video previews) and working with timelines where you have those little video thumbnails on every cut in the beginning of the clip and scrubbing around there leads to crashes.
    I mostly work on xdcam422 material at 220mbit and 280mbit recorded with the nanoflash, but also in prores422hq.
    Anyone an idea on how to fix this?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
    Here the Maintainance Pack Log:
    This crash log suggests that Final Cut Pro was overloaded at the time of the crash. This can occur if your project is overly complex, has multiple Motion project layers or is using MPEG-based media (HDV, H.264, MPEG-2, XDCAM, AVCHD), particularly if you are using filters with such media. Note that overloading is more likely to be the cause of the crash than the reason below.
    Corrupt / Unsupported Media
    This crash was caused by corrupt media or media that is unsupported by Final Cut Pro. A common cause of this crash is using media on your timeline that is unsuitable for editing such as AVI, WMV or MPEG-derived codecs (XDCAM, HDV, MPEG-2, H.264).
    Suggested Actions
    Use Corrupt Clip Finder to locate the problematic clip and then recapture or attempt to repair it.
    If your sequence codec is set to an MPEG-based codec such as MPEG-2, HDV, XDCAM or H.264, change it to ProRes.
    Alternatively, and for best results, convert any MPEG-based media to ProRes.
    If the issue is related to a codec, upgrade the codec if an upgrade is available or consider transcoding your footage to an editing-friendly codec such as ProRes.
    If you are using CMYK images, convert them to RGB.
    More Information
    To improve the stability of your system, create a less complex "lite" version of your project, export embedded Motion projects as QuickTime movies and if you are using MPEG-based media such as H.264, HDV and XDCAM, set your sequence codec to ProRes or convert the media to the ProRes codec.

  • HT201237 Final Cut Pro X 10.0.8 not working under Yosemite

    I have Final Cut Pro X 10.0.8 and it stopped working under Yosemite. Are there any fixes or work arounds? Oddly enough, my copy of Final Cut Express 4.01 still works!
    MacBook Pro 13" (Late 2011)
    12 GB RAM
    180 GB Intel 530 SSD

    I'm not seeing Final Cut in my purchases on this device ...
    However ...
    I did change my Apple ID a few times since 2012 (I kept forgetting it and also wanted to consolidate with my other Apple devices ... )
    I actually have Final Cut 10.0.8 installed on two computers. I updated Final Cut on the laptop last year to 10.1 .... but KEPT the old FCP version on the desktop because I liked it.
    However, since I updated to Yosemite on the desktop last week, Final Cut 10.8 will not open --- and I don't have an "update option" in the App store.
    Will this happen on my laptop if I update to Yosemite? That device is running Mountain Lion, I think.  But I would hate to also lose Final Cut 10.1 ... it's all I seem to have left.
    Do I have to purchase Final Cut again for both computers? Thanks very much for your help, it is very appreciated!

  • Final Cut Pro X Opens But Doesn't Respond

    I am running FCPX 10.0.9 on OS X Mavericks (10.9). FCPX worked without issue on my computer and it was running Mavericks. Now, out of the blue, it will open but not respond. Once the loading screen goes away, nothing happens. FCPX is not responding and there is no light under the icon in the dock. I'm not sure why this is happening. Any help is appreciated.

    I don't beleve I trashed my prefferences. I did just now realise when I went to move the project that FCPX hangs on, I realised it was on an externail hard drive that was completly full. I deleted around 40 GB of data on that drive and FCPX works.

  • Final Cut Pro 7 Serial Number does not work

    After the latest Apple Update my FCP program puts up a requestor box wanting the serial number. When I put the number in the box says Incorrect. I've tried everything like changing 0 to O to copy and pasting and keying in. Nothing works. What did Apple do in the last update to screw up FCP?

    We have see a few related posts, try searching for serial number.
    I assue you, nothing was perpetrated by Apple during the recent ProApp updates. You can usually download them as a stand alone installer instead of getting them as an automatic script.
