  • Final Cut Pro - Long Install Process after clicking "buy" from Trial

    I just clicked "Buy" on my FCP X trial version and now it has been installing for quite a long time.
    Why does it do that? I have the most recent version of the trial version.
    Or is the trial version a different software package that will be overwritten by the purchase?
    I just want to avoid having suddenly two FCP X installations on my computer.

    Thanks, Ian.
    I really had two Final Cut Pro installations of 10.1.3 on my hard drive, each 3.38 GB.
    One was the trial, one the real thing.
    When I clicked the symbol in the dock, the trial opened up and told me it was expired. So I dragged the symbol out, deleted the trial, and dragged the symbol of the real thing into the dock, and now it works.

  • Final Cut Pro x and Compressor 992 hour to process

    I edited a 1 hour-40 minute video, on Final Cut Pro X and processed using Apple's Compressor.
    I have tried different Operating Systems (Mavericks and Mountain Lion) on two different Mac Computers.
    IMac 2.8 Mhz and Mac Book Pro (both 2008)
    It has been transcoding to create video to run on Apple Devices, for over 6 days now, and it shows that it will take 992 hours to process.
    The same video, some months back, with Mountain Lion, took a couple of days to process.
    Question: Why is it taking this long now?
    I have tried to get a DVD done, different types of output; none have succeeded.
    I guess Apple, has made adjustments to their Operating Systems, to basically render this computers inoperable, forcing customers to buy their latest Mac models.
    Yes, I went to the "Genius Bar" at Apple (twice), first they told me to increase the memory, which I did; even though months ago I had videos processed without extra memory.
    The second time at the "Genius Bar", after I had installed extra memory, they had nothing to say, except that "they had a friend" with the same problem, but after "the friend" bought a new Mac, the problem was resolved.
    I called Apple support and was told to "reset PRAM", which I did. Still the problem persists.
    Any ideas?

    You don't mention how much RAM is in your machines, nor what are the versions of FCP X and the OS.
    These can make a lot of difference. If you are trying a long export with very little RAM (and I must say 4GB is *very little* RAM), then it can get bogged down tremendously. Do you have at least 8GB?
    How much free RAM is reported in Activity Monitor?
    Are you using Mavericks or a previous version of the OS? Mountain Lion was notorious for slowing down to a crawl in such circumstances.
    Give us more info, so we can better help.
    In the meantime, you might consider exporting just a small section of the movie (use I and O to mark an in and an out point in the timeline) and see how fast it goes; keep Activity Monitor open while you are doing it.

  • HT201109 Final Cut Pro 10.1 crashes with Motion 5.1 custom Scrolling text and Graphics titles

    Dec 29, 2013 1:33 PM 
    found out why Final Cut 10.1 won't load my custom titles without crashing. When scrolling text in Motion 5.1 if you ad a graphic to scroll with the text Final Cut 10.1 will crash. If I remove the graphic in Motion and then load it into Final Cut 10.1 it will work.
    So Graphics and scrolling do not work. The graphics are .jpg, .png, .tiff, .psd. I don't know how to fix it. Hopefully someone out there does.

    Thanks Tom for the advice. I have four external hard disks, all of them formatted with Mac OS Extended Journaled. On all devices (2TB) I have more than half free space. They are connected either with Thunderbolt or USB3 cables. Different manufactures:  LaCie, Toshiba, WD and Samsung. I face the same crash problem if I connect a UBS drive 16GB or a any other device to the USB ports including the Sony Video camera connected with a USB1 cable. Same problem on ALL my computers! To work properly, I have to disconnect all USB devices and work only with internal hard disks. I also tried to format the MacbookPro (erasing the partitions with a new installation) but I have the same problem. I really lost hope...

  • I own a Canon Vixia hf s200 and final cut pro 7. How do I convert my video?

    As this will show you, I am not very good with computers...
    When I open final cut pro it asks me to choose my sequence settings. Which one should I choose?
    It has settings such as DV50 NTSC 48Kh but I have no idea what that stands for.
    Also, I have the iSky video converter and I convert it to final cut pro but does it matter how high of quality I make it?
    The video goes in, but it always tells me that it does not match my settings and asks me if I'd like to change it but when I do, it goes a little screwie.
    Thank you so much for the help!

    That camera records either MPEG-4 files or AVCHD. Which did you shoot?

  • Final Cut Pro 10.1.1 and older iMac

    Final Cut Pro 10.0.9 runs very well on my 2008 iMac & Snow Leopard.
    Will there be any problems running FCP 10.1.1 & Mavericks on this computer?

    I believe my computer is identical to yours and although the card is not supportd it still works OK
    If yours does not work at all you can still use FCP X 10.0.9 which is almost identical to 10.1.1 except for the new Library system  .  .  .  .  I'm sure the old FCP X will do more than you will ever need.
    If you are desperate to use the latest FCP X on Mavericks but can't afford an iMac, you could get a Mac Mini complete with third party 24" monitor for half the price of a 21.5" iMac.
    The Mini may not be quite as fast as the latest iMacs but it will be a lot faster than your old one.

  • How to put video files on external drive for Final Cut Pro?

    Sorry for the stupid post, but I'm on day one of trying out final cut pro. (Tired of the very limiting imovie) I have a Sony HD video camera and a Go Pro HD camera. I want to store all my video on my 1TB external drive and edit from it. How do I set that up? I'm not up on the lingo that's used in the program, nor can I figure out how to do this so far.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hiya mate, first off no such thing as a stupid post. Better to ask if you're not sure!
    There are a lot of variables to think about, what codec you want to edit in, i.e. HDV, IMX, ProRes then there's frame rate, 25, 29.97 etc. Best practice is to work native to with the codec you've shot. i.e. if the camera is HDV ingest at HDV. If you want work at a higher codec, ingest or transcode to that codec then work with it in FCP. FCP works best with all assets at the on the same timebase and codec.
    You also have to think about disk speed and bandwidth from the external HD to Mac. FCP will only be able to handle 'x' amount of streams and layers depending on the codec.
    Anyways...bsck to the question at hand. Im not sure what camera you have shot in but if its HDV you easy set up to set your project to HDV/PAL/NTSC/25/29.97, then set your scratch location to the external drive, and then save your project (make sure you have named it correctly as the scratch location aka capture scratch folder, will be named with the same name as the project). Connect up the camera over firewire then go to log and capture (cmd+8) and ingest.
    Hope this helps!

    SJ

  • Final cut pro X crash

    final cut pro X crash

    FCP X runs very well (not perfectly, by any means) on my 2009 MacPro 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 16 GB RAM and ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB
    First, check the spec of your iMac against the system requirements:
    http://www.apple.com/finalcutpro/specs/
    Particularly your graphics card. If it's listed here, it's not suitable:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4664
    If you are getting crashes, there is some conflict on the OS. Create a new (admin) user account on your system and use FCP X from there - if it runs a lot better, there's a conflict and a clean install would be recommended.
    Other ways to improve performance:
    Create optimised media.
    Hide Waveforms at all times when you don't need them (both in Browser and Storyline / Timeline). They take up a lot of processor power.
    Create folders in the Project library and put any projects you are not working on currently, in there. (Twirl it closed to hide them).
    Move your Projects and Events to an external HD (make sure it's formatted OS Extended - with journaled on or off) and run from there.
    The biggest single improvement I saw in performance was when I upgraded the RAM from 8 GB to 16.

  • Cross Processing in Final Cut Pro...

    Hi everyone, I have been trying to figure out how to cross process in final cut pro without buying a plugin. I searched around and have seen the plugins, but they are not the cross processed look that I am lookin for. If anyone knows how to do this in Final Cut, please let me know.

    Between the "Bleach Bypass" filter available here (Well worth the money for the whole set but there is there is a demo version too).
    http://nattress.com/Products/filmeffects/GBleachBypass.htm
    and the "Three Way Color Corrector" in FCP you could get very close...

  • Final Cut Pro X: cancelled exporting process, file still on computer, but where?

    HI!
    I was exporting a project  from Final Cut Pro X, but I cancelled to process. I had chosen to save the file to external storage. My computer was processing the file to my computer and now after canceling  there is file with size over 30 gigabytes  on my computer but I don't have any idea where it is?
    I was exporting the project using compressor settings -not the best one choice, but the only thing I want now is to find the missing file and delete it.
    Share monitor gives me message: 3x Source file /var/folders/b4/y9pp857j2dx5mq4yp6nw3gqm0000gn/T/259EE137-52C2-47CD-AA69-DFAEB7 37E3B7.export-seq-id not found 
    Thanks a lot of your help!
           Christer 

    Hi,
    I didn't change the file name in the Save dialogue box and yes -I have certainly searched with spotlight and used all kind of methods to find the file.
    And there hasn't ever been any problems when canceling the process before this time.
    But I know much more after diagnostics in Apple repair service in Apple Authorized Service Provider (or what ever is the right term...). Like I wrote before, it's possible there are failures on hard drive and if the file has somehow got to the damaged place on hard drive, it's may be impossible to find the file without professional help. That's maybe not
    very common issue, but still possible. It will take week or more before I get their answer.
    I just hope I would have Final Cut on my iPhone....

  • How do i engage my 8 core mac pro to use all it's cores when using final cut pro and other applications that need processing power? at the moment they seem to be idle...

    how do i engage my 8 core mac pro to use all it's cores when using final cut pro and other applications that need processing power? at the moment they seem to be idle...

    First, did you use Setup or Migration Assistant? That can happen when coming from a PowerMac or sometimes even from another (Intel) Mac.
    Second, wait for the next version of Final Cut due very soon to ship (may have to wait for the ".1" of course to clean up any early issues.

    There are a few apps that are better.  I think you can run multiple instances of Handbrake for one.

  • 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.

  • Very disappointed with G5 and Final Cut Pro

    At work we bought a G5 last year for Final Cut Pro to edit plain DV video downloaded from a MiniDV camcorder via Firewire. The machine has 4gig memory, 6800 graphics, and is running FCP 5.0 with all of the Software Updates installed. The G5 is supposed to replace a much older PC that is running Adobe Premiere 2.0 on Windows XP. Even though the PC only has a single Pentium 4 CPU and older ATI X800 graphics, it does FAR more real-time effects than Final Cut Pro does on the G5. Why is this?? Almost everything I do, from titles to minor effects will appear instantly on Premiere Pro, real-time, no rendering needed. But almost everything I do on the G5 will show me a big red X until it has rendered. If I add a title, I still have to wait for it to render. If I add a light blur effect, I still have to wait for it to render. This is very annyoing and very depressing, we spent a lot of money on the G5. In reality, at least for us, it is slower than the older PC it is supposed to replace forcing us to spend a lot of time staring at those big red X'es while Final Cut Pro renders.
    Are we doing something wrong? Or is this the case with all dual processor G5s running Final Cut Pro 5.0?? Is there anything we can do to speed up rendering or enable actual real-time effects/titles?

    Welcome to the family.

    Simple failure to understand your new tools. Open the manual, run the tutorials. Study carefully the sections on how to set up all of your preferences for DV. It's easy and when you're done you're going to feel really silly.
    If your company intends to make money with FCP you must invest time to understand what you bought since you bought it without bothering to test drive FCP on a G5. If you liked Premiere on Windows, you may never enjoy using FCP on Macintosh. The switch can be devastating. You could be one of those poor souls who just doesn't get it. Turn your system over to a more open minded person on your staff.

  • Stop Sharing Process And Restart Final Cut Pro X

    Hello, i am pretty new to Final Cut Pro X. I have created and edited a video file in it. Now i am going to share it using Master File option. My question is that when the sharing process starts, which i can see in the background tasks option, is there any way i can stop the sharing process, let us say save what percentage is done, then close the Final Cut Pro X, and let us say i have to shutdown and restart my Mac again. Can i restart the sharing process from the same point???

    NNo. You can cancel the process, but you have to start over.

  • Installing 10.5.6 made Final Cut Pro very slow start up

    After installation of OSX 10.5.6 (combo) , final cut pro 6.0.4 or 6.0.5 is very slow start up the application. I did all kinds of things such : Disc permission, DiscWarrior, Techo tool, but
    it is very very slow to start up. When I re-installed final cut pro, it did start up right away,
    then after restart, again final cut pro starts very very slow.
    Please advice.

    Hi Yuki,
    It's very important to read the information regarding these updates before you install them. If you click the Apple logo top left in your Desktop then click Software Updates, when there is a system update available, there will be a link available for you to click and it will take you to all the information you should peruse before the update. Here is info on the 10.5.6 update. Apparently there are known 3rd party software issues. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3194
    First thing I would is check the disk for errors. You need your restore disk for this.
    Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
    Insert your Mac OS X Install disc in your computer’s optical drive or an optical drive connected to your computer, and then restart your computer. When you hear the startup tone, hold down the C key until you see the progress indicator, which looks like a spinning gear.
    Follow the onscreen instructions until the menu bar appears with the Utilities menu in it, choose Utilities > Disk Utility, click First Aid, and then click the Verify button. If DU reports errors, click the Repair button. When it's finished, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Disk. In the Startup Disk window select MacintoshHD 10.x.x and click Restart.
    If you restart and it's still really slow booting up, you might want to UNinstall FCP. If you do, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions before and after you reinstall it.
