Final cut pro x not sharing

i have the most recent version of final cut (purchased a few months ago). in the past i have been able to "share" then have the options to youtube or whatever. the last two videos that i have edited, when i click on "share", the options listed under share are all gray. in the past, the options were in black which meant i could click on them. what's wrong

Hello, if you don't get help here you might try posting the question over here...

Oh, I see you have & have an answer from Tom!

I'm thinking of using Final Cut Pro to straighten slightly crooked footage and then re-import back to iMovie to complete the video. Does this have any impact on image quality?

I'm thinking of using Final Cut Pro to straighten slightly crooked footage and then re-import back to iMovie to complete the video. Does this have any impact on image quality?

As your rotate the image, you will begin to see black edges. So, as Tom implies, the image must be scaled up to hide those voids. If you shot 4k ad are editing in a HD timeline, no problem, lots of room to spare. If you shot 1080 and are editing in a 1080 timeline, you will run into issues at a certain point. However, if your 1080 project is going to be transcoded to 720 or ye olde DVD you won't notice any deterioration at all.

Why does my final cut pro is not responding every time I open it????!!!!!!

why does my final cut pro is not responding every time I open it?

As you give no background info nobody can possibly guess.
However, have you tried trashing the preferences?
Many weird things happen as a result of corrupt preferences which can create a vast range of different symptoms, so whenever FCP X stops working properly in any way, trashing the preferences should be the first thing you do using this free app.
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
Shut down FCP X, open PreferenceManager and in the window that appears:-
1. Ensure that only FCP X is selected.
2. Click Trash
The job is done instantly and you can re-open FCP X.
There is absolutely no danger in trashing preferences and you can do it as often as you like.
The preferences are kept separately from FCP X and if there aren't any when FCP X opens it automatically creates new ones . . . instantly.

My final cut pro will not update on my iMac, it will update on my Macbook.

my final cut pro will not update on my iMac, it will update on my Macbook. I have OS X Yosemite on both systems, my macbook has final cut pro x version 10.1.4 and my iMac shows no updates available and is on version 10.1.1. I have tried looking in iTunes for the same update that is installed on my macbook under the same iTunes account, but it doesn't show any updates. I tried deleting from my iMac and it won't delete so I can reinstall it. any suggestions?

You need to be logged into the Mac App Store with the same Apple ID in order to see your updates. You speak about iTunes: maybe you meant that just as an expression to refer to your Apple ID, but just in case you didn't: you do NOT use iTunes to download mac software. You use the App Store application, available under the Apple menu.

HT1338 Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

Sorry for being unclear.
When I am using the update in the App Store App, there will be a list of various applications that have updates to be installed (Final Cut Pro will be in this list). I will already be logged in with the Apple ID I use for everything (my dev account). I will be able to update all of the other various applications needing updating except for my Final Cut Pro. When I click the update button next to the FCP update, it will give me an error saying "This download is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"
I have not had any applications refunded or cancelled and this has only happened since my update to Yosemite. FCP was working fine until the upgrade. Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?

Hello everyone
I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. I've tried to repair it using DU, but it said I needed to backup all my data and reinstall the OS. How do I backup my data to an external drive?
And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?
Hope you guys can help me!

You need to back up 2 folders, Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects which by default are located on your Movies Folder. You can always check by clicking on a clip inside Fianl Cut X and selecting Show in Finder in the contextual menu for the selected clip.

HT4589 After Yosemite Final cut pro will not run and says there are no updates available.

OS X Yosemite caused Final Cut Pro to not run until upgraded. Says there are no updates available and will not let me install it - says I already have it.

FCP (10.1.3) works just fine on 10.10.. try to trash FCP then re install.

Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

Hi Tom, I don't know if you can help me.
I'm using Final Cut version 10.1.4 with Yosemite 10.10.2 and whenever I open FCP it opens for about 5 seconds (not allowing me to click anywhere) before closing with the message "Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly. click reopen to open the application again. This report will be sent to apple automatically." I have tried opening it multiple times and the same thing has been happening over and over again and i've tried everything I could find on the internet and nothing is working.
HELP.
Jada.

Final Cut pro X & project sharing

I am sure this is a basic question but I can't seem to find a solution. Two of us are working on a three min short in two different cities across the country. One person is doing the clip edits. The other colour correction and audio.
I know to share edit we just make a complete copy of both the Project folder (stored in the final cut projects folder ) and the events folder (stored in the final cut pro events folder). The problem is the files are huge.
I was going to use Drop box to share the files but it will take forever to upload and download. We are on a deadline.
Does anyone have any idea how to speed this process up? We both have hard copies of the RAW footage that needs to be colour correct and audio work. I don't have copies of the stock footage and music bed but I am not doing anything to those parts. Would it be possible to just send an archived copy of the project and relink it from my copies of RAW footage. Do my edit then archive the project. Send her a copy via drop box. Then she would relink with my additional changes to the audio and colour.
With another rookie question. Is there a way to use iCloud. If I could save the project in my iCloud. Then give my partner my information to sign into the account. Then she could download it from iCloud and edit...
Just trying to solve the problem of file sharing fast on larger file sized projects.

Assuming both editors have copies of the raw footage in their events folder and that no footage is added or deleted, then the only files that change are "currentversion.fcpproject" in the projects folder and "currentversion.fcpevents" in the events folder. These are very small files and can easily be transferred between editors via dropbox or similar.
The problem with this is that the editors can't work on the same project simultaneously, only sequentially. In other words, editor A finishes their bit and passes it on to editor B to do their work. I don't know your workflow but I'm guessing that you are trying to work at the same time on the same project. It works for us, but only because we split large projects into smaller sub-projects.

IPhone 3Gs audio drift in Final cut Pro (but not qt player or imovie)

Is anyone else having audio drift issues with video from the 3gs when imported into FCP? We find that a 30 minute clip plays just fine in Quicktime player with perfectly synced audio, but when brought into final cut pro the clip has several seconds of drift over thirty minutes. This is before it's ever placed into a timeline, and the issue persists even if we transcode to prores 4:4:4 or any other codec. Issue duplicated in FCP 6 and 7.
Also, the movies are often brought in upside-down, even though they are displayed perfectly by quicktime player.
If, however, I bring the same clip into imovie and export it, the resulting clip has perfectly synced audio which works fine in FCP.
Essentially, apple's free tools seem to have no problem with iphone-captured video, but Final Cut, which is the pro tool, seems to have issues. Unless I'm missing some obvious (or abstruse) configuration step which is causing the problem.
Any insight greatly appreciated; everyone in our shop is stumped.

Shane,
Thanks for your response, though I don't really see the need for the condescending tone while offering no useful information. I'm aware that H.264 is not an editing format -- If you had taken the time to read my post more carefully, you would note that I have already transcoded the footage ("and the issue persists even if we transcode to prores 4:4:4 or any other codec. Issue duplicated in FCP 6 and 7"), so your suggestion "Use Compressor to convert it to DV." really doesn't help much. We've done so and the problem persists. Hence the post.
Incidentally, I have transcoded with quicktime player, compressor, and FCP. All preserve the audio drift. Interestingly, Imovie deals with it well, kicking out a file with perfect sync. My instinct is that it's a metadata issue (i.e. FCP is misinterpreting the actual framerate of the video) but I'm looking for any similar experiences out there.
As for "professional" vs. non pro hardware and software, I certainly don't expect the iphone to shoot footage or offer features that are comparable to those of a pro camera. I do expect it to properly encode quicktime files for use with any bug-free quicktime-based tool, of which FCP is the flagship example. Should aperture not be required to handle photos from point and click digitals because they are not "professional?"
It's a somewhat ridiculous position to take that Apple's video tool would not support their only video-capable device. There are many consumer devices supported by FCP (you've heard of DV, yes?) and the 3Gs (and, I would assume, the coming video-capable ipod touch) are no exception.
In short, this is clearly a bug, and I'm trying to run it to the ground in order to use the 3Gs within a production environment for a project requiring many mobile devices uploading video from wifi connections around the world. If you have any useful information to offer, I'm all ears.

Final Cut Pro working very sluggish, any suggestions ?

Hello everybody, I've been using Final Cut Pro for a very long time now. Although I've had this problem lately, when the smooth cam analyzation finishes. Final Cut pro ( the Video which was analyzed successfully ), starts working very slow. Something so small as a cut even take like 30 seconds to complete. I'm using a MacBook Pro 17" 3.06 ghz, 8gb 1067 MHz DDR3 ram and connected to a Firewire 800 hard drive that has 7,200 rpm rotational speed. I've tried trashing the preferences and reinstalling Final Cut ( I have the latest version ), but nothing helps. Maybe I need to render all of the video or something, does anyone have any suggestions or any kind of help ? ( Thank You ahead of time ).

The only way that would work out is if you ran exactly the versions that were made for old PowerBooks. Anything newer may require Intel and not run, or will strain the poor old G4 CPU.
Your needs have to be modest, too, because the problem with older music and video software is that they are not current as far as formats and codecs for the Web. If you want to output H.264, the current standard for YouTube/Flash video, older software may not support it, and in addition, H.264 is processor-intensive and is tailor-made for today's multi-core, 2+ GHz processors. It will overwhelm a G4. A PowerBook G4 can barely play YouTube videos.
More perspective: The PowerBooks worked great for miniDV format editing. In other words, 480i SD/standard definition video in use from the late 1990s to the late 2000s. If that is all you want to do, edit tape from an old miniDV camera to SD output, then OK.
But if you want to edit today's HD video, whether 720p from a snapshot camera/iPhone 4 or 1080p from a DSLR, the PowerBook and the software for it will either not recognize AVCHD/H.264, or it will slow the PowerBook to a dead crawl.
I'm in agreement with the above: Intel Macs have been out for so many years that getting a used one is a much better deal than a dead-end PowerBook. And I loved (still love) my PowerBooks.

Final Cut Pro X not completing export to blue ray

Running Final Cut Pro 10.1.2, OS 10.9.4, Macbook pro I7 2.3 ghz, 16gig ram... I can export a short sequence to blue ray from Final Cut Pro X and it works. I have a 41 minute video that when I "share" to Blue Ray it will burn about 6-7 minutes of the 41 minutes without any errors. It completes as if it worked but when you look at the video it is only 6-7 minutes.   A few portions of it are also pixilated, that's not the case when I'm viewing it.
Any ideas on the blue ray. I have an external Pioneer Blue Ray burner which as I said works fine on short videos in Final Cut Pro X.

Hello Gary,
Check out this thread for ideas.
More than a few users have struck issues since 10.1.2:
                 Blu-Ray burning error after Final Cut Pro 10.1.2 update.

Final cut pro x not working, stuck on " reading file...."

My final cut pro x. Is not working. The apple specialist stated that one of my files is corrupted on my hard drive therfore its not loading. He told me to hide the files and open one if them at a time. By hiding the files, it does allow the program to open. The problem is that I have so many files!!! Can I just go into each of the "original media file" drag them to a hard drive and then erase the final cut events? By doing this, I can load my program? I just dont want to loose any of my original media. I dont mind loosing the projects but just not the clips that I rransferred from my camera.

Thanks Jakob, I will get a blank hard drive and transfer one of the original media and test to see if I can still view it. I will let you know the outcome. Wish me luck Jacob.

Final cut pro 6 not able to find movie during launch

hi,
everytime i launch final cut pro 6 it comes up with a message telling me a 'movie file cannot be found' and that 'without this file the movie cannot play properly'
the file is there, it has not been renamed
this happens no matter what project i try and open, even if i just click on the final cut icon in the dock
i've deleted the pref and the obj caches
still no luck - any ideas?!?

Usually you get that kind of error if the file is one you exported not as "self contained", if it is a file that you sent to Motion or STP and some render data was lost, or if the file FCP is trying to reconnect has the same name of the file you captured but not the same data (e.g. no reel name or different reel name, no or different timecode etc...)
Try fcp rescue (http://fcprescue.andersholck.com/) or just recapture your file...
