Final Cut Pro X Update Issues

Last year I purchased a used 2013 MacBook Air with Final Cut Pro X already installed.
I just learned that in order to update the software, I need to be signed into the Mac App Store account that purchased FCPX.
Is there anyway to transfer the software onto my own account, or do I have to contact the seller and get their information to update. Any other ways to update?

If you are serious about editing with FCP X, buy it yourself. That way you will get each future update
which will match whatever iteration of OS X is most current on any computer on the planet (that you own).
No One in their right mind is going to give you their App Store sign In info. W/O it you are stumped,
stagnant even - in the bottom of the pond all alone. You know how many people write in here asking
how to get something for nothing? Lots. In that respect you are not alone.

    Hello,

    Is the application in your Purchases page? Are you signed in to the App Store using the Apple ID that purchased the software?

  • When's The Next Final Cut Pro HD Update?

    I was just wondering if anyone knows when the next Final Cut Pro HD update is supposed to be released. I'm about ready to make a purchase, but I was wondering if I should wait if the next version is going to be out soon.
    Thanks!

    I don't think it's against the TOU however to point out that Apple have been known to launch new products or announce updates at the NAB show, which takes place every April.
    But I personally have no idea if there's anything in the pipeline. I only buy every second upgrade anyway so I'll be waiting for FCS7.

  • MUSIC FOLDER MISSING AFTER FINAL CUT PRO X UPDATE

    I cant see the music folders that come with Final Cut pro after the most recent update (i.e. special effects, etc). PLEASE HELP!

    I saw on somewhere that reloading FCPRO Content v1.0 would do the trick. It worked. All 1300 sound fx are back where they belong. The link to the download is:

    Did not try the Garage band suggestion but thank you all.

  • Why doesn't Final Cut Pro X update songs from Garageband?

    While working on a short film in Final Cut Pro X, I worked up a simple sound track in Garageband. I imported the Garageband project, aligned it, and discovered that I'd mistimed one of the sound transitions.
    So, I went back to Garageband and updated the transition, moving the sound effect to the right spot to match up to the video, and then went back to FCPX. I dragged the Garageband project onto the original copy that I'd imported, and selected "replace" and ended up with... the original. After some experimenting, I actually went and deleted an entire track from the Garageband project and reloaded it in FCPX... still no change. How can I fix this?

    Here's an update...
    I made some changes to the Garageband track and saved it as another project... Final Cut refused to even detect it until I restarted Final Cut.
    I have a sound effect that's placed at 1:32 in Garageband, and it ALWAYS plays at 1:31 in Final Cut, no matter how shift it around in Garageband. After changing the song in Garageband and sharing it to disk, I verified that the sound effect is happening at 1:32 by playing it back in Quicktime, so it must be Final Cut that's misbehaving.

  • My Final Cut Pro X rendering issue

    Hi,
    I'm new to using Final Cut Pro X and was hoping someone could help me with the issue I'm experiencing. 
    My Final Cut Pro X keeps rendering. As soon as I open up the application it just renders and I can’t do anything. It won’t move past 4%.  I've rebooted my Mac five times already.  I've recently uploading videos to the timeline (the last time I logged on) and it's 22 minutes.
    How can I fix this issue? I have plenty of space on my Mac's hard drive.
    If anyone could help, that would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Alicia

    I can see that Innocentius replied, but can't see the reply. So this may be redundant to his post.
    When you import media, you are given many options – to copy to events, to optimize, to analyze, and so forth. Which options did you elect?
    What kind of media are you using?  And if it came from a camera, describe how yoi brought it into FCP.
    If you hot Command-9, it will open the Background Tasks window. What does it indicate is going on? Better yet, post a screenshot of the window.

  • Final Cut Pro Upgrade Licence Issues

    Hi,
    I wonder if anyone can advise .
    I had an old version of Final Cut Pro and recently bought the upgrade , which I installed successfully.
    Then, seeing that I had a whole new box of manuals, in a moment of madness, I threw away the old box . In doing so, I have thrown away my old licence.
    So now if I ever need to re-instal Final Cut Pro , or instal it on my laptop (it is only installed on my desktop) , I have no licence key for the original ( which I must instal before the upgrade ) .
    Anyone got any ideas how I go about getting a re-issued licence key?
    Thanks in advance .

  • Final Cut Pro X - Overheating Issues

    Whenever I use Final Cut Pro X on my MacBook Pro, SMC Fan Control says my computer is 80 Degress Celcius, and issues a warning. Why does this program overheat my MBP? Any help?
    Thanks in advance.

    FCPX will render the timeline while exporting hence the CPU temp rise. You can select parts of the timeline to be rendered. It might be adavatagous to render the timeline in sections and wait for the CPU to cool down and then do another render section. In the modify menu there is a RENDER SELECTION option.
    Sending feedback to apple would be a good idea as it is apparent that there should be an option in the preferences to manage how much memery and CPU is used for rendering.

  • Because of the new final cut pro x update with photoshop capability, does that mean 3d objects are now compatible with final cut pro x

    Does Final Cut Pro X now support 3d models or objects because of the update with photshop capability?

    When you import a 3D model in Photoshop, it is imported as a Layer (smart object). And, yes, you can edit 3D objects in Photoshop and import them into FCPX—AS a photohop image (you cannot manipulate the 3D nature of the object in FCPX.) You can however create an animation in PS, convert to layers from frames and import that into fcpx. You can then edit the compound clip created to make use of those "animated" layer/frames. (I'm not sure how far I'd "push it" though...fwiw, at that point, it might be better to export the animation from PS and import the MOV into FCPX.)
    You can also make edits in PS after the psd is imported and fcpx will do live updates (after saving the psd file, of course.) 3D objects in PS are a special kind of Smart Object, and Smart Objects will translate to Motion and FCPX (they will be rasterized as a single layer, though.)

  • I bought Final Cut Pro 1 long time ago. When I move back to Vietnam, I have lost it. I still have the the Final Cut Pro 2 (update) and 3. I want to use Final cut 1 because I'm still using my old Mac os9 what can I do? Please help me.

    Can I download it again? I lost my series number too. But I think my registered name are still in your record.

    Only FCP X is downloadable. Everything up to Final Cut Studio requires install disks.  You might try calling  Apple, but the software you seek is over a decade old.

  • Final Cut Pro 4 update to Final Cut Studio 2

    I have FCP 4 installed on a PowerBook. (I know but it was light editing and I was just starting). I just bought an iMac, 2.8G, 24inch w/Intel Duo processor. I don't want to install FCP 4 on this machine but instead would like to purchase the upgrade to Final Cut Studio 2 and install in on the iMac.
    My question is, will this work? Does the upgrade look for previous versions to actually reside on the machine or will it just want the original CD (or DVD)? I love the iMac and am switching to it for everything!!!
    Thanks,
    Greg

    The upgrade will simply ask for the previous serial number. No need for it to be installed.

  • Final cut pro keyboard layout issue

    Hi everybody, and thanks for your help.
    I'm Italian, working in Italy, using fcp 6.0.5 with MacOSX 10.6.2 on a laptop and 10.5.x on a Mac Pro, and on both my computers I had big problems because fcp can't match with the Italian keyboard layout without some time-losing operations, that once completed, brought back fcp to normal use... lately (in the last week) this new layout I created (and saved, having to reload it EVERY time I launch fcp) started not working anymore, on both my computers, and keyboard shortcuts are almost not usable anymore. You can easily imagine what does this means in therms of time-losing and focus on the project.
    Now, I'm wondering how is this possible.
    I understand (but hardly accept) that Apple's top level editing software is not immediately compatible with a non-USA keyboard, but this new problem is really disappointing me. And because this is happening on TWO different computers in the same arc of time, well, this makes me think it's not depending from my operating.
    Does anyone else is having the same problem lately?
    I had some other reason to start thinking to move to another editing software (but more expensive), and this new issue is giving me a new reason to make the big step. But honestly, I would prefer remaining on fcp, I'm still (but I don't know for how long yet) proud to be an Apple user, even if when 15 years ago I had my Apple Macintosh maiden flight Apple was the most safe machine my hands could touch. Please, back to the future.
    Thank you,
    and forgive me for the last part of this email, maybe a little off-topic.
    But maybe better complaining at home that doing it outside.
    best regards,
    Stefano Bianchi.

    Hi Nick, and thanks.
    Unluckily I've already knew about this option, but no result. Some tools work, some others (like zoom in/out) not.
    Anyway, this would switch my system language from italian into english, not big problem, but not very professional from Apple, leaving a bug like this.
    If there were technical reasons for which international keyboard layouts are not released from Apple, and you (or someone else) knew about them, may you please explain me? Knowledge will help me to revaluate Apple's operate.
    Thanks a lot.
    Best regards.
    Stefano.
