Final Cut Studio 2-Error Installing

Hi,
I insert the Disk and after a minute I get the following message:
"There were errors installing the software"
Previously I had FInal Cut Express which was removed. I noticed instead of an install I am getting an "upgrade" when installing?
Any advice?
Thanks
I am running QuickTime Player_7.5.5

Which version of Final Cut Studio did you purchase ... the full retail version or an upgrade version?

Final cut studio pro 6 install problems and error message

Purchased a new macbook and am having trouble installing Final Cut Studio Pro 6- get this error message: You can't open the appliction FinalCutStudio.mpkg because PowerPC applications are no longer supported - have never seen this before, any clues?

The installer requires Rosetta to be present, but Lion doesn't include it anymore. You can try to install Rosetta from a Snow Leopard disc using the "Optional Installs". Note that this is not officially supported: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4769
There have also been reports that Lion will break most plugins for FCS 2 and FCS 3.

Final Cut Studio Pro 2 Install - Skip Final Cut Pro itself - TT_NEWALREADYI

Dear All,
I hope you can help. I have just bought a new Macbook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM, with OS X 10.4.10 running. It came with iLife 08.
I installed Logic Studio 8 (which was successful), and have been trying to install my copy of Final Cut Studio 2. When I run the installation, the options appear for custom install, but FInal Cut Pro, Compressor and QMaster are greyed out, and the action identified for them is "skip. If I rest the mouse over any of the options the text TT_NEWERALREADYINSTALLED appears.
I have tried uninstalling the Logic Studio components with AppZapper, and retrying the install of Final Cut Studio, but no matter what I try to do, it won't install Final Cut Pro.
Can anybody help?
Kind Regards,
Nick.

Latest Final Cut Studio Won't Install On G4 Powermac.

I have a friend with a dozen or so Macs!
He has just purchased Final Cut Studio with a multiple use licence and installed it on his G5 Powermac successfully but it won't install on his G4 because the "standard" video card is not up to it (according to an Apple compatibility checker that he downloaded).
The obvious solution, that Apple would certainly approve, is for him to spend a further £150 on a new card.
However, is there a hack he could use to get it to work with the old one?
Ian.

Aw, Jim: you're too kind!
..I'm (still) just a know-nothing newbie! [..I hang out with the unmentionables, over at iMovie Discussions..]
Well, I've been to Holland, dawdling thro' the dykes ..and I've been playing with my HDV cameras - silly me: I upgraded from FCP3 to FCP HD 4.5, but - of course! - it didn't do HDV, so now I'm just waiting for my "cross-grade" universal FC Studio to arrive, so that I can play with DVD SP, as well as edit HDV 'natively'. (..I upped to a quad G5, as the wait for imports to transcode into the 'Intermediate Codec' was just too, too mind-numbingly -s-l-o-w- ..and exports took 10x real-time on my G4 Mac mini/PowerBook/whatever.)
But I'm typing this on an FCP multi-coloured keyboard (..or, I should say "Mark IN, Next Edit, Marker, spacebar, Track Tool, Render Quality/Toggle, Pen Tool, Mark IN, Snapping/Toggle, Edit Selection, spacebar, Track Tool, Hand Tool, Mark IN, Slip/Slide", etc, as you aficionados would know it..) so I am really trying..
Whenever I see a picture of dear old Albert, or read about him, or watch a video clip or impersonation of him, I always think about your glimpse of "the patent clerk" at Princeton long ago..
..meanwhile: back in 2006; I've got a big cheese-grater, nice fast hard discs, and am waiting for my raid controller to arrive (to run these two 10,000 rpm 'Raptors' ..the 72GB ones, which do work inside an Apple, unlike - apparently - the later ones..) [why can't they have more genteel names, like 'Daisies' or 'Flowerpots'?] ,,and I have all this footage to finish..
I've still got to complete shooting, and cutting, a TV programme about (..ssshh; don't want to say..) but I'm pretty much determined to do it all in iMovie HD ..just as a matter of principle ..though what that principle is, I'm not sure ..maybe "This program should be good enough for anything!" ..though I may cheat when it comes to colour-correction, or something equally obscure or abstruse ..or do I mean insecure and ostrich?
Good to speak/write with you..
OK: now go ahead and click 'Report this post' ..see if I care, you snooty genii who can actually make sense of and use FCP.. ..
EDIT: removed a bracket; one too many - doh!
Edit: Just added another one, as there was one missing ..darn this punctuation..

Final Cut studio won't install- "powerpc apps no longer supported"

I'm trying to install my old copy of final cut studio 5.1 and it tells me 'power pc apps are no longer supported', however this is a universal copy of studio 5.1 (intel or powerpc) and it's being installed on an intel machine. Any thoughts?

There are lots of threads on this subject if you do a search, but the answer is that you need to install Rossetta from a Snow Leopard disc to be able to run the installer. Also, I believe you need to update to 5.1.4 before you launch FCP and even then it's not a guarantee that the software will be trouble free under Lion.

Final Cut Studio Anamorphic error

When capturing SD data from DVDVCPRO tapes my system displays clip in viewer in horizontally distorted anamorphic format.
I've been using the same [recommended] Panasonic deck {AG-DV2500] with no problem for for five years on this show, no problems. Clip looks normal during capture but after capture, open clip in viewer and it's stretched anamorphic. The Anamorphic box is not checked in Settings but somehow, somewhere, the system checks the "Anamorphic" column during capture. I click on the check and the clip goes back to normal but it's one swift pain to scroll over to the properties and do this extra maneuver for every clip.
This problem only cropped up a month ago after producers added 1080p HD video to the show and I had to upgrade OSX from Tiger to Leopard 10.5.8 and upgraded FCP to Final Cut Studio 7 [in mid-production, always a no-no, but...] and using 1440X1080 HD format as a Timeline setting.
Apple support has not been able to figure this one out yet.
???

and using 1440X1080 HD format as a Timeline setting....
1440x1080 is a non-square pixel Anamorphic format -it displays as 1920x1080 in square pixels.

G4 867MHz powerbook + Final Cut Studio won't install

My g4 867MHz powerbook should be able, on paper at least [memory, etc], to cope with Final cut studio, but the installer tells me that it can't. Why? Is there some shortfall with the video card or something? Any ideas?

how much free space do you have on the system drive?

Problems opening project in Final Cut Studio 2 after installing FCP X

After installing Final Cut Pro X, a friend is having problems opening his older FCS 2 Projekts ind FCS 2.

Final Cut Studio 2 Clean Install problem....

OK, long story short, I did a clean install of my system and am reinstalling FCStudio along with all my other software. The hitch is that I upgraded to FCStudio 2 from FCStudio. It is an upgrade version and wants my original serial after entering the upgrade serial. I apparently got rid of all the documentation from my original version when I upgraded, stupid I know. is there a way to find serials registered with my apple ID or anything like that? As always, I'm on a deadline.....

Well... If you registered it with Apple, you might try giving them a call... They probably have that info saved...
I did that with software I bought online a few years back, and called them a few years later, and lo and behold, they still had my SN# (but this was another company, not Apple).

How many computers can I install Final Cut Studio 2 on?

Here's my dilemma. I'm a poor soon-to-be college grad with an old 2004 PowerBook G4. I'm starting to do video projects this summer and want to get a new computer and Final Cut Studio 2. The problem is, I don't have money for both. However, my current computer DOES meet the requirements (1GB RAM, 1.5Ghz engine, and 17" monitor) to install the apps and run them. So, ideally, I would buy Final Cut Studio 2 and install it on this old computer until I saved up enough money to get myself a Mac Book Pro in a few months. Then, I would install FCS 2 on my new computer. Is this possible? Can I install FCS 2 on my old G4 and then months later when I get a new computer, on my new computer? Or at least transfer the apps to my new computer?
Thanks ahead of time! I haven't gone computer shopping in a while so I don't remember how this all works!

Install it on the PowerBook, and when you get the MacBook Pro, download and use this tool on the PowerBook prior to installing it on the MacBook Pro. The license for Final Cut Studio 2 permits it to be installed on a desktop and portable but not two portables.
If you're in the middle of a project when you get the MacBook Pro, complete it before changing the configuration.

Installing Final Cut Studio 3

Hi
I recently had to restore from back-up to a new laptop. I went to use Final Cut Pro from (Final Cut Studio 2)and was asked for a serial number. Unfortunately I have lost the discs without registering (monumentally stupid I know). Bottom line is I want to buy a copy of Final Cut Studio 3 and install that.
Would you recommend I uninstall my current unregistered version..or can I install straight over the top of it even though it is not an "upgrade" version I will be buying. (it will be the "full" version.)

Always a good idea to do a clean install, however, if you buy a legit copy of fcstudio3, don't see why you can't just try using the full (rather than an upgrade) serial number when it asks for the serial number.
Good luck in finding a copy of fcs3. Apple's not selling it anymore.

Final cut studio and macbook pro

hi i have final cut studio 2 currently installed on my imac, and it kinda slows my general use of the computer
i bought a new macbook pro (the new one with aluminum casing), but its only the base, and i have not upgraded it in any way, so it is as it comes
and basically i was wondering, if i installed the entire final cut studio 2 (and aperture), how would it affect the general speed of the machine when doing other general tasks not FCS related:
a) while FCS is running
and b) while it is not running
i also want to run games off of my MBP so i really dont want to compromise speed

It needs to be filled with RAM, and when running Pro Apps, in the faster graphics processor mode. Mail, etc. will likely run fine along side them. I'd not play games when rendering though.
When they don't run, they don't affect anything but disk space 60 gigs for it all including Templates... RAM is the key to running multiple apps on any given Mac.
Nice Mac too. I just saw one the other day for the first time. I love that new trackpad the most. It's likely a lot faster than my 2.3 laptop, and I can run all the apps at the same time no problem with it. But ya need to fill up the RAM. I like that it's so green.
