Final Cut Quits after launch unexpectantly

I havent used final cut express since I did the last apple update. I open final cut express and I get an error message that unable to see firewire device and then i have an option to check again or continue to say devices connected are none. Nothing is connected except a midi keyboard thru USB and an external. After I hit continue final cut quits. What is wrong?

Hi(Bonjour)!
Welcome to the forum.
There is a pref setting to disable that warning dialog.
Check in user preferences under general tab. Put a checkmark at "Do not show A/V device warning on launch".
If the problem persist, try to trash the preference files:

Final cut quits!!!

Final cut quits as soon as I launch the application. Can anybody help me?

Nima:
Welcome.
If you are running anything but 5.1.x then it doesn't work natively with your Intel Mac.
You need to cross grade.

Are you running 5.1 or 5.0.4?

Compress Fails because Final Cut Quits

Every time I try to compress my movie from FCP to Compressor there is ALWAYS a problem. It is extremely frustrating. I would estimate that it would successfully compress once in five tries.
One error I most frequently run into is that Final Cut "quits unexpectedly" while compressing and compressing fails. Final Cut says that it may have been caused by the Pro Graphics plugin.
One error I just ran into was QuickTime error 0. One Apple Knowledge Base article says you need 1GB memory or you will get this error. I have 6 GB of RAM!
I'm just starting to use FC Studio so I am still trying to understand why somethings don't work. I do, however, need this project compressed for a DVD ASAP, and these problems are not helping. Thanks in advance!

Until you get the problem solved, one workaround would be to export a self-contained movie from FCP (File->Export->QuickTime Movie). This will create a file identical to your Sequence. If you've included chapter or compression markers in FCP, be sure to indicate that in the export dialog window. You can then close FCP and use the new file directly in Compressor.

Final cut studio not launching

I am running my final cut studio 5.1.2 on a macbook pro
2.16ghz intel core duo. 2 gb of ram.
My problem is that all of a sudden final cut does not launch. I simply
click on either the project I am working on or from the appocation folder
and does not even open up. I trashed my preference, repaired disk permission and even reinstalled. Nothing happens. I wonder if I need to do a complete
re-install, meaning wiping everthing out including dvd studio,motion,etc
and then re-install. Any suggestions. I was currently working on a HD project
when this happened.

See if any of these help:

Is mac book pro good enough to run final cut and after effects?

is mac book pro good enough to run final cut and after effects?

Yes it is. I have two at my office working fine.
Just note. FCP has already delivered the universal binary so you won;t have any trouble. For After Effects, Adobe has not released the binary yet so the worst that will happen is that you might have a little delay opening the application. We are a professional media organization and we can rely on our intel based macs. Don't worry.

Why is final cut quitting unexpectedly

My final cut is quitting unexpectedly all the time. I cant use the application for five minutes without it crashing. It mostly happens when I scroll through my raw capture video clips. I scroll through the videos and the wheel shows up and quits. Please tell me what my problem is. It is very irritating when this happens.

Please give the exact item properties of the clips you're editing and the exact item properties of the sequence in which you're editing.
What computer exactly, what drives, what OS, what software version?

Final Cut quits unexpectedly at the end of Capture Now

I've tried searching google and question archives, but I can't tell if anyone is having the same problems as me. I've repaired permissions and verified the disc.
I'm using a new 8-core mac pro (a few months old) with 8 gb of ram. I'm importing from a tape on a Panasonic AG-HVX200. This has happened at least 5 times, where I've captured a tape, and at the end hit "esc" to stop. Instead of putting the new clip in my bin, it instantly quits the program, giving me an error message.
I am able to find the clip afterwards in my capture scratch folder and add it to my project, but it's a hassle.
So, two questions:
First, anyone have any idea what's wrong?
Second, I've heard the recommendation to log the clip first, then batch capture. As that takes more time, what sort of advantage does it have, besides that it probably won't crash my computer?
This is what the log says. I've compared these crashes to other crashes, and the +662 at the end of this line is consistent when I have this kind of crash, but not other crashes:
"0 com.apple.FinalCutPro 0x00355fd2 pKGDVCUExtractRawAudioDataFromMemory(DVCodecFrameTypes, void*, long*, long*, long*, unsigned char*, void**, unsigned long) + 662"

If you don't have a Limit set for Capture Now, FCP assumes it may need the entire remainder of the scratch disk and essentially allocates all available drive space for the task.
I'm not sure it is your issue, but it's generally advised to set the limit to a couple of minutes longer than any capture you intend to do.
One reason to Log and Capture, (this is dependent on workflow and needs), is that you become much more aware of what shots that exist on tape and you have an opportunity to more effectively name clips you choose to use and cull out garbage, which saves disk space.
Let us know if trashing prefs helped/didn't help...could be something else.

Final cut will not launch after fcs2 install (successful)

I have just installed FCS2 and unpon launching the software. It gives an option to relaunch but that doesn't work. I've tried searching in the threads and haven't gotten anywhere.
I just updated to Leopard doing about a month ago doing a clean install, not an erase and install.
This is error message I am getting

Ok, here's what happened I needed the Pro Applications Update 2007-2, when I did a software update search it never gave that as an option. I had to discover it by looking through the error details and going in to the FCS2 section of Apples site and download it from there. I didn't even know that it would be the right update but it appears to be, Final Cut just loaded for the first time.
Thanks for your help.

Final Cut Quitting Unexpectedly

I was working on a project when i exported a couple shots to work in Motion with. When I was done working on these clips in Motion I saved the motion file and went back into Final Cut. The Motion file went offline right away, but now the Project wont open anymore. I am on final cut 4.5 and it loads up the entire project until it reaches the meadia offline window and then crashes. I have already trashed my prefeneces and com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist but neither of these two helped.

Please give the exact item properties of the clips you're editing and the exact item properties of the sequence in which you're editing.

Final Cut Crashes after Crossgrade

Just perchased Final Cut Studio 5. Everything installed fine, no errors or anything. I went to open FCP and got this error...
"Licensing Error
This application cannot continue because the licensing data is corrupt."
I read thru these forums and found: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2037372&#2037372
Mazzer the Wake:
"I seem to have got to the bottom of the problem. I had remove a Studio ID file from the Pro Apps Folder in the Application Support Folder.
Not elegant but it seems to have helped.
M"
and a reply:
StefanWolfrum:
"it's the file
/Library/Application Support/ProApps/Final Cut Studio System ID
trashed it, launched one of the Pro apps, entered my license data, the file got rewritten and everything works fine now.
thanks a lot for your hint!!
Stefan. "
So, I did that, now FCP 5 unexpectedly quits while on the splash screen.
DVD Studio4: OK
Soundtrack Pro: OK
Compressor: OK
LiveType: OK
Cinema Tools: OK
I cant use FCP 4.5 anymore either...
I cant reinstall 4.5 either, because Apple took the disks when I send for the crossgrade...
Any help please?!

Help! Final Cut won't launch

G4 FCpro4HD QT pro 6.5.1 Panther 10.3.9
Has been running flawless for a year.
when I launch (for 3 days now) I get .. "The application has unexpectedly quit
would I like to submit a bug report?" I have already gone as far as to wipe out the machine an start over. During the update process I was able to launch
FC 4 but couldn't open my files in 4.5HD Now that everything is back to what my first line says, It's doing the same thing. I tried tossing the preferences..
no luck.

No. Since i wiped out the machine and started over all I have is the system, upgrades and final cut. I'll introduce my apps later , Not to sound like a cry baby I have a deadline with a Holywood producer for 4 segments. I worked on my last segment 2 days ago and with no rhyme or reason the next time I tried to open it to show my wife, this all started. I am much more of an artist than a mac tech so if I am missing something simple or stupid please let me know.
Thanks

Can't open Final Cut Pro after the migration

I bought a new iMac (21.5 inch: 3.2 GHz) and migrated all the files from my old iMac, which I brought in 2006 or so. When I tried to open Final Cut Pro (Version 5.0.4), an error message shows up and says "Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly" and I can't even open the application. Here are the details. Can anyone help me fix this problem? Thanks.

Never migrate a pro app.
In your case the underlying issue is v5 is not compatible with intel processors
The solution is to purchase the upgrade to the current version, erase your hard drive and install the system and pro apps fresh from the disks

HT4589 Final Cut Pro wont launch anymore

I updated to the latest version of Final Cut Pro and now it wont launch. the window comes up and all I get is a spinning colourful wheel as a cursor and no way to operate the software.

Could be a problem within one or more of your Events or Projects.
Move your Events and Projects to new (temporary) folders so that FCP X doesn't find them on launch.
If it launches OK, then quit the app and move the Projects back one by one (re-launching each time). The media will be offline (red clips) but if it launches OK, quit again, and move the Events back one by one - re-launching each time you move an Event.
This should isolate the offending Event - you can then use a similar technique to track down the individual file.
