Final cut pro warning dialogue on sharing with compressor settings keeps disappearin

Every time I try to 'export with compressor settings' a warning dialogue that keeps appearing for a fraction of a second and then disappears. Seems to be part of the sharing montitor - but can't see it long enough to see what it is. Didn't happen when I was running the trial version but now that I'm using the full version I can't seem to export anything - I assume because of this dialogue.
Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas on how to cure it?

Actually I think its in the pref's files. All I did was create a second account to log into my computer and relaunched Finalcut there. Because the working and project files are on an external drive it works fine.
A little unhandy as I can't get into my mail while in my dummy account - but it works. So I'm wondering which prefs files to delete to find out if that's the problem.

If you have an Intel Mac and have recently upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion; here is a post I made in another similar thread:
I do not have any experience with Final Cut, but if you have existing projects that you MUST access; then you are in need of a solution on your new iMac in Mountain Lion!
Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta. Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion). While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
Workarounds:
1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
2. If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between Final Cut Pro or Lion/Mt. Lion;
3. Purchase a used Mac that will run Snow Leopard (with the optional Rosetta installed) and continue to run FCE on that Mac (you can actually use Screen Sharing with a "headless" used Snow Leopard Mac Mini and use the screen from your other Mac to view and work FCP in the Mac Mini environment);
2. Upgrade to an Intel compatible version of FCP (such as FCP X) and hope it converts your existing projects to its newer format correctly. There is much debate that the newer version of Final Cut are eliminating many needed features; for example Final Cut Pro X vs. Final Cut Pro 6 -- many users are staying with version 6;
3. Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels and then install FCE in the Snow Leopard environment:

Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
NOTE 2: Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.

Is there a way in Final Cut Pro 7 to save custom Batch Export settings?

Is there a way in Final Cut Pro 7 to save custom Batch Export settings?

Don't think so. Years ago, I seemed to figure out a way in an earlier version of fcp, but when I tried to recreate it, I couldn't make it work.
You can send to compressor and save custom presets there.

Final cut pro HD 2 not working with new updates

recently purchased a new imac. Most of my old programs were not supported. I updated to 10.9 from 10.5. Now, all the programs are running except Final Cut pro HD 2. I get a message sayin"power pc applications are no longer supported" Any suggestions? I read in an old discussion (from 2011) that I might need to download Rosetta?

I do not know which version of FCP the OP is using as I do not recognize his designation of Final Cut Pro HD 2.
However, last weekend I attempted to install Final Cut Studio 2 (Final Cut Pro 6) into Snow Leopard installed in Parallels, as a test. It failed!
Final Cut's installer suggested the following problems: not enough VRAM - 64 needed; 0 present (even though Parallels is set for more than the minimum required VRAM); and a missing video card.
I attempted to work around this problem by using Pacifist to install FCS2, which worked, as far as the installation was completed. However, when I attemped to run FCS2, a dialog box came up with indicated that same two problems and then it quit.

Final Cut Pro X is KILLING me with the lagging! Please help!

All of my work takes about 6 times longer than necessary now that I am using Final Cut Pro X on a brand new MAC. Processoor is 3.5 Ghz, Intel i7, memory is 16G, 1600 MHZ.
I just don't understand the problem. I am working off an external G Drive with Thunderbolt - which, of course, I had to purchase since Mac did away with the Firewire where all of my previous work was located but that's another story...
I currently produce short 1 to 5 minute pieces for work but it's a nightmare trying to get them done. I can't imagine anyone being able to do a movie on this program. Should I just give up and go to a PC and Sony Vegas or learn Adobe? I like Final Cut Pro but it's litterally slowing me down and I cannot figure it out. We've spent a fortune at work on Macs and constantly changing software and cables and programs. I now just think Apple is MEAN. It's like they are out to torture us all.

We're missing some information here but I don't know what. Maybe you're doing a 6multicam edit? A typical iMac will have no problem with 5min edits using H264. You might trash FCP prefs..reinstall it...
If you have some data on your local drive and some on an external...or your external is nearly full.... or you have 20 different programs cranking away in the background...
There are things you can do to get FCPx to choke, but I have no idea what could be causing the slowdown. It's not FCPx itself....
Is it a legitimate, up to date copy of FCPx ? Do you have some nasty add-on installed on your computer...some anti virus program or could your new iMac still be working through the Spotlight checks, reading your hard drive? It's going to take some investigation but again, it's no a simple FCPx issue. Plenty of folks use it with no speed problems. You might simply optimize your clips and create proxies and go from there till you figure out what the issue really is.

Final Cut Pro HD 4.5 problems with LiveType & uninstall/reinstall missingCD

Hi there. I am actually crossing my fingers hoping that people can help me with this issue of mine.
I have been using full version of FCP HD 4.5 for a long while then I moved from an apt to a new apt, then I realized some of my previous FCP projects would not opened. After a long while figuring out what was the problem, and I realized if any of my projects that contain any LiveType project, my projects will not open. Why? I have no idea why? I am hoping someone might have the answer for this.
So... I thought I would uninstall and reinstall everything, then I realized I might have misplaced my Final Cut install CD Luckily, I didn't delete the FC, so I decided to leave it on my hard drive. I went ahead and reinstall the rest, but I noticed LiveType doesn't show up at all except I was able to see LiveType Data. I couldn't see/find the LiveType Icon except the folder of LiveType Data. My another question is... was I supposed to have a LiveType installation CD along with the LiveType Data CD or that was the only installation CD I'm supposed to have? I thought I still have the list of items that Im supposed to have that came in the FCP HD 4.5 box... apparently, that is misplaced!
Can anyone answer my questions--
1. Why my FCP projects would not opened because of problems with LiveType & what is the problem?
2. Was I supposed to have a LiveType installation CD along with the LiveType Data CD or that was the only installation CD I'm supposed to have?
3. Is there a specific order that I am supposed to install FCP HD? Like I should install FCP first, then Motion 2nd, LiveType 3rd, & so forth? If so, please share it with me
4. Can anyone please share with me on what installation CDs I was supposed to have from FCP HD 4.5? I want to make sure I have everything, which I know I do not, or I can look for specific CD(s).
This is what I have (they may be for other program that I must have mixed it all together)--
1. Final Cut Pro HD HD Sampler (obviously that is NOT the actual FCP HD 4.5 installation CD, right?)
2. Motion Install
3. Motion Content
4. Apple Loops for Soundtrack
5. DVD Studio Pro 3
6. Live Type Data (1 of 2)
7. Live Type Data (2 of 2)
8. Peak 3 Express
Any suggestions or answers will be SO MUCH appreciated!
Thank you for taking the time to read this and answer my questions if you can

Thank you, Nick.
Shoot. That means I did misplaced my FCP installation disk!
I still don't understand why my FCP projects that contains LiveType wouldn't opened! I need to get most of them opened! Argggghhh.
I am curious ... is there any other program similar to LiveType (like creating exciting texts) that I can use to work with FCP?
Lemme know! Thanks

Final Cut Pro X is exporting video with horizontal lines?

I filmed a show with 2 different cameras (one is a canon vixia, the other is a canon dos 7D, i realize the quality is different for them) and I used the multi cam editor to match h up the clips and audio file to switch back and forth. I think i created proxy media to use for the multi cam clip. Whenever i export my movie, the movie plays with horizontal lines, and whenever there is faster motion, the person gets blurred. What is making final cut pro x export like this? How do I fix this? I've tried exporting with Apple ProRes 422, Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy), and H.264, but all video files have the lines going through it and the motion is a bit blurry. Please help me!!

There are quite a few Vixia models from Canon; which is yours?
Without looking at the image, it's not certain, but your description sounds like interlaced footage displayed on a computer. The 7D only shoots progressive, so it's possible your other cam was set to record interlaced. If your first clip placed on the timeline was an interlaced clip, FCP would automatically set the project to interlaced.
In a addition to your model #, what would be useful is to select one of the Vixia clips in the browser and then to take a screen shot of the top part of the Info pane.

Final Cut Pro X Exporting to Youtube with Canon 5D Mark ii

Hi,
I'm having problems exporting to Youtube with Final Cut Pro X. i convert the file and upload, but the audio is not syncing properly. The video is fine. Any tips on what to do? I'm using a Canon 5 D Mark ii. 24fps, 1080
Also does anyone know where the audio setting are on FCPX?
Thanks

Hi aussiearn
The process you suggested worked beautifully: images clear and true sound accurate.
I have over 100 30 to 60-minute videos to put on a client's YouTube channel. Using the YouTube settings in Compressor my first uploads colours were looking washed out, and the audio progressively slipped when played via the Safari browser. Your advice has fixed this issue, so thank you for taking the time to post.
To clarify what I understood your process to be for others who may wish to use it:
In FCPX choose 'Share' from the menu bar
Select 'Export Media'
In the options presented: 'Export' should be set to 'Video and Audio'; 'Video codec' as H.264; 'Audio file format' will be greyed out but show Quicktime Movie; 'Open with' will show 'QuickTime Player.app (default)'. Click 'Next'.
You'll be presented with 'Save As' options. Name the file and select where you want it to go on your drive(s), and click 'Save'.
Export will begin: my 6.84GB video, which was 45-minutes of 1920 x 1080 at 23.98fps, took about 35 minutes using a Macbook Pro 2.2 Ghz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB of RAM
When the export is complete the video should automatically open in QuickTime.
Within QuickTime go to 'File' on the menu bar and choose 'Export for Web', which is at the bottom of the drop-down menu
You'll be presented with a box that says 'Export versions of your movie optimized for web-delivery to iPhone and the desktop'. Pick what you want to name the file in the 'Export as' and then where you want it to go in 'Where' (obviously enough). You can save in three versions for different contexts, but I chose only to save as 'Broadband', with the best quality as YouTube will automatically create different versions later. Click 'Export'.
An 'Export Progress' box should appear. My file took around 45-minutes to process.
At the end of the process you will find a folder with your chosen name, rather than a file. Click on tha folder, then click on the 'Resources' Folder you will find in side. Amongst other files you'll find a .m4v file with 'broadband' at the end of the name. Rename the file and change the suffix '.m4v' to '.mp4' and upload to YouTube.
As you said this seems to save a lot of time compared to compressor (perhaps half the time?) The file that began the process at 6.84 GB ended as 1.16 GB, and looks and sounds great.
Thank you,
Nigel

Is Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 working with OS X 10.10.3?

Apple just updated OS X Yosemite to 10.10.3 and I'm using Final Cut Pro 10.1.4. Are there any reports of compatibility problems using FCPX with the latest
OS X update?

During an editing session yesterday of about 6 hours my Mac shut down twice for no apparent reason.
This is the first time this has happened on this machine.
Looks very much like a Kernel Panic to me.
I was pushing the machine hard and it was heating up using AVCHD PAL 1920 x 1080P footage.
Could be just too hot and it didn't it??
Also getting a (new for me) Background Tasks busy when shutting down, there are no BG Tasks running that I'm aware of.
The only thing changed is the move to 10.10.3.

Final Cut Pro won't fully open with new OS 10.10.3

final cut pro version 10.2 will not open with OS 10.10.3. Rather, it starts to open in my project, then hangs up with the spinning wheel that never stops. I upgraded the OS to this one just last week and haven't been able to open fcp cc since then

1. Can I rename the library as I wish to reflect the project topic?
- Libraries can be named anything you wish. Rename them in the Finder. Or simply name them when you first create them.
2. Can I safely drag it into the external drive so everything is in the same place and space is saved on the computer? I realize upon FCP start-up I'd have to locate the library to re-establish the connection.
- You can move Libraries to any location you wish in the Finder. If you don't want your media to do offline (relink), you can select the Library in the Browser, go to the Inspector, click the Consolidate button. This puts everything physically inside the Library so it is self-contained.
3. The library (on the computer hd) seems to create new libraries sometimes. One when I used FCP the first time. Another when I restarted using option/command, etc. Another with a little test video when I first purchased the program. Can I delete every single library (now in the movie folder) other than the one I am working on, or does the FCP system somehow need to hang on to one or more other libraries?
- There has to be one Library open when you launch FCPX. If you closed all your Libraries before quitting FCPX, then it will create a default Library in your Movies folder. You can move unneeded Libraries to the trash in the Finder, FCPX doesn't care.

Final Cut Pro HD (4.5) compatability with Canon HV10

I got a great deal and read reviews from Mac sources regarding the Canon HV10. There was some question about the camcorder, but as an introduction into the world of HDV, I thought I could work with it for my specific needs and I did get a pretty decent price.
BUT, iMovie in my OSX Leopard which I just installed recognizes the camera BUT it comes in all bright green and pink even though the playback in the cam looks normal, and Final Cut Pro HD (4.5) just won't see the HV10, even with the HDV/DV cable they require you to purchase.
Do I have to update Final Cut Pro? Is this something that is just not going to work with the FCP 4.5?
Any help would be seriously appreciated.
Thanks so much.
Rod

FCP4.5 does not do HDV. You need either iMovie8, FCE 4 or FCStudio 2 for that codec.

Can you transfer final cut pro x to another computer with the same apple account?

I want to get Final Cut Pro X right away so I can start editing videos for my youtube channel, but I'm am also planning to get a Macbook Pro for school this year. Is it possible for me to buy & use Final Cut Pro X on my current macbook now, and then later copy and/or transfer the application to my new computer? Both computers would be run by the same apple account. Thanks! Please reply.

Hello There,
I'm not sure of how many in total you can have, but you can have FCPX on both your computers you just can't use them at the same time.

How do I make final cut pro 10.0.9 work with os x yosemite

Was slow to upgrade desktop to Yosemite. Now find that Final Cut Pro version 10.0.9 will now open or work. I've seen several posts - and have attempted those solutions but before I can get to it, the program automatically shuts down. Any suggestions?

Upgrade to the latest version of FCPX, which is necessary in Yosemite.

How Can I do an export that from Final Cut Pro 7 that is specific to these settings?

                                            Track 3 – L
                                            Track 4 – R
                                            Track 5 – C

                                            Track 8 – R Surround

First of all, what are your sequence settings? Looks like they want stereo AND dolby 5.1 audio tracks embedded in the quicktime (I've delivered a few films like this). Do you have a surround sound mix?
You will almost always have more options and control in compressor over fcp so that's the way I'd go, but not sure compressor will give you the ability to match these specs.
Do you understand about safe zones for graphics? If not, post back.
I don't see any option to set the GOP in xdcam in compressor. This may be built in to the xdcam format.
I don't see any option for 720 xdcam hd in compressor.
There are many other tools available for this kind of work, but they may be out of your price range. You might want to just find a facility with experience in deliverying this sort of thing.
