Final Cut Studio 2 manuals in PDF?

Before I start calling Apple and being put on hold, I thought I'd ask here first. Does anyone know if Apple has a PDF of the manuals. I have some vision problems and reading the manuals from the monitor would make it easier to read. (It ***** getting older!)

The PDF version of the manual is available from FCP's help menu.
To avoid having to open FCP everytime you want to just read:
Right click the Final Cut Pro application in the Finder. Choose "Show Package Contents".
Open the "Contents" folder and navigate to the "Resources" folder then the folder "English.lproj" then the "Final Cut Pro Help" folder.
Select the "Final Cut User Manual" pdf and right click, choose "Make Alias". Drag the alias to another location -my manual aliases live in a folder in "Documents" in my user space.
You can repeat this procedure for the manuals in the other FCS applications.

  • Final Cut Studio 2 Manuals in Package ?

    I just got my Final Cut Studio 2 upgrade and the box had 4 Manuals for Final Cut Pro 6 and one for Color. There were no manuals for Soundtrack, Compressor, Motion, etc. Is that because I got the upgrade ? Did people who got purchased Final Cut Studio 2 for the first time get manuals for everything ?

    I don't even believe the full new purchases had anything more than what you had in the way of printed manuals.
    Rest on pdf files.

  • Set of manuals for Final Cut Studio 5.1

    Does anyone have a set of manuals for Final Cut Studio 5.1 that they don't need and would be willing to sell?
    I got the crossover version, and find it difficult to cuddle up with the pdf files provided.
    If you purchased the full version, and have now gone on to Studio 2 full version, and don't need the manuals to Studio 5.1, and are interested in selling them, please post back here.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Here's something:

    But the bidding will probably go up. You can tell by the way he worded the auction that he's selling an illegal copy for people who aren't concerned with legality by disguising it as "a backup".

  • Final Cut Studio Upgrade: Printed Manuals?

    Does anyone know if there are printed manuals included for each of the applications in the upgrade version of Final Cut Studio 2? They couldn't tell me at my local Apple Store and didn't have a boxed upgrade version to examine.
    Thanks for whatever info you can provide!

    Hi Gina,
    If you buy FCPstudio2 (Full Package):
    You get 4 printed manuals about FCP 6 and 1 about COLOR.
    Manuals about Motion, Live Type, Compressor and so on are available from every software installed or upgraded when you go to HELP>USER MANUAL

  • Final Cut Studio Manuals

    Hi
    Does anyone know where I can get paperback manuals for Final Cut Studio.
    Most of the stuff on the web is training manuals. I'm after a reference manual.
    I know I could print the e-manuals that come with the software but I'd prefer to purchase.
    Thanks

    "IT services installed one Mac with all the software we require and then cloned the other 19 units"
    I'm going to play Devil's Advocate on this one. Please tell me that IT didn't just buy one copy and put it on 19 different computers. Please tell me that they purchased one set of the software but got 19 different serial numbers - one for each computer - or something like that. If not, you should let them know that they are breaking copyright laws. Maybe you would each have gotten a manual.

  • Manuals Included with Final Cut Studio

  • Final Cut Studio Upgrade Kit

    Hi,
    I bought the Production Suite last year or something, and now I would like to upgrade to Final Cut Studio for $199. Does anyone now, if apple ships the whole Studio box, or simply the install discs? Just curious.
    Patrick

    I just received my upgrade kit. It came with just the Install DVDS, a software license, and a small "Installing Your Software" booklet with new License codes.
    No manuals. They're all in PDFs on the DVDs.
    I was disappointed about no printed manuals but then again, from an environmental standpoint, they conserved resources. It's all in how you look at it. Manuals are nice but searching PDFs is quicker.
    My biggest surprise & confusion is the Graphics Card compatibility issue. It said my Dual G5 with a Radeon 9600 Pro GPU was not capable of running FCP 5!
    I looked in my system profile and Quartz Extreme is OFF. I tried turning it on with some hackery, but it still says "Unsupported" under the "Quartz Extreme" column in System Profiler.
    According to Apple's readme, my ATI Radeon 9600 Pro is not capable of FCP 5, even though I'd swear I read it CAN do Quartz Extreme.
    I am finding this a bit confusing... Do I really need to upgrade my video card or is it a matter of turning on Quartz Extreme properly?
    Those who are upgrading should consider this issue...
    Note, I can run the other apps, including Motion, but not FCP. I would have thought it would have installed and simply not run as fast or something, but NO, it just won't install at all.
    Any ideas?

  • ARD: Deploy Final Cut Studio

    Relative newbie to ARD. I have to deploy Final Cut Studio to 17 iMacs in a lab that already are in production. I would have expected to find more information available on how to accomplish this task, especially with this software since it is Apple software.
    I cannot seem to find anything definitive that explains if this is possible or that can be used as a guide to doing so.
    Anyone care to share any pointers? Links? How Tos?

    Hello,
    A no go there my friend, because Final Cut studio is multi-disc installer and requiring the serial number during the install.
    The best thing you could do is to make a disk images of Final Cut, then push them over the network with ARD to the iMac's & then run the installer manually on each via screen sharing. When your done use ARD to send a task to delete the images of the iMac's.
    Hope this help's!
    Here's are some resources -

  • I need to re-install Final Cut Studio 2

    After a major problem on my original booting HD - 6 years old - that I discovered while backing it up with SuperDuper (used successfully for years), I had to exchange it and after a week of fiddling... I managed to save almost everything from that faulty drive using Data Rescue II and Disk Image Restauration and have now my system almost back in shape - most of the programs (QT Pro, Photoshop CS, Acrobat, aso. requesting simply their original license/serial numbers BUT its another story for my suite of editing programs...
    FCP is seemingly running but the rest of the Studio is not! I finally came to the conclusion that I have to re-install the whole FINAL CUT STUDIO 2 that itself is an upgrade of FINAL CUT PRO HD!
    My question is quite simple: how do I go about desinstalling EVERYTHING so I can make a fresh new install?
    Thanks for help and wisdom
    Philippe

    Nick,
    Data Rescue worked fine for me - for everything but the Final Cut Suite - for my other programs like Photoshop aso, I just had to get my hands on my license numbers to get them back to work ! You might have had a problem Data Rescue describes in their manual as wrong ABL "allocation block layout" ! Please don't ask me more on that... I have no clue on what they're talking about!
    I did erase everything Final Cut with FCS Remover, then re-installed FCP HD, then upgraded, then installed FC Studio 2 then upgraded (a busy day talking with those dialog boxes) so I supposedly now got everything back to before crash/drive exchange. I will give it a real test in the morning.
    Thanks for your imput.

  • Final Cut Studio 2 Vs 3

    I wanted to look at getting something more then iMovie and saw the Final Cut Studio 2 is for sale this week for $50 while Final Cut Studio 3 is still $300 at my campus bookstore (education licenses). Is there a $250 difference between the two versions that someone that will just be using it for a few home move projects will be able to detect?

    Also why does Apple charge so much more directly for the Academic version ($900 3 times as much) as my school can sell it to me direct, including the 10 lbs of instruction manuals? Is it just a volume agreement my school has?

  • Final Cut Pro operators manual in SPANISH?

    I'm trying to located a PDF of the Final Cut Pro operators manuals (the document that comes packaged in the software) ideally for version 6, but I'll take 5 or 7 if I have to, but written in Spanish.
    Does anybody know where I can find such a document?
    When I google it, I get results but all the web sites that say they host it come with some sort of
    catch like you have to sign up and pay to use their web site.
    I find it hard to believe there isn't a free spanish version of the PDF somewhere, or at a minimal cost.
    I also can't find it on the install disc.
    Any input would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • New user to Final Cut Studio 2

    I am using Final Cut Studio 2 for the first time and I am having a hard time loading video files. I have several quicktime files which won't open in Final Cut and some video I recorded on a camcorder using mini DV tapes which I am also unsure how to import. I cannot figure out what the format of the DV is. As you can tell, I know pretty much nothing about video.... stuff.... I've read the manual for Final Cut (first volume) and my camcorder and neither were helpful for this basic stuff. Any help would be appreciated.

  • What's in the Final Cut Studio 2 Box?

    I have Final Cut Studio 2.0.1. Retail version. I got it with a 2nd hand MBP I bought recently, and I plan to sell FCS2. I have no need for it, iMovie is fine for me.
    But I don't have the big fancy box or manuals or ? included... what is meant to be in the box?
    I do have...
    - 9 installation CDs in the small black apple box.
    - Final Cut Studio Software License agreement.
    - 'Installing Your Software' documentation with serial numbers.
    - Apple Software 'Proof of Purchase' coupons.
    If anyone has FCS2 and can tell me what I'm missing, I can advertise it more effectively and truthfully! Thanks.

    Basically, you're not missing anything; most of the documentation is electronic. Click here for a complete list of the box's contents.

  • What is the Final Cut Studio Universal Crossgrade?

    I got an e-mail with an offer to purchase a "Universal Crossgrade" to Final Cut Studio for $49, but I'm not clear about what this is.
    I already own FC Studio. Does "Universal" mean that all of the components are now in a single app so there's no more "round tripping" between apps?
    Does "Universal" refer to the fact that this is compatible with both Power Mac and Intel based machines?
    I'm confused about about what's new in this latest version.
    G5 dual 2.5   Mac OS X (10.3.5)  
    G5 dual 2.5   Mac OS X (10.3.5)  

    Mike,
    The order form (http://images.apple.com/universal/crossgrade/pdf/Crossgrade.pdf) makes it look like you have to send in all 4 DVDs (Final Cut Studio, Motion 2, DVD Studio Pro and Soundtrack Pro).
    This is the part that makes me a little squeamish. I haven't had any problems that require a re-install lately, but IF I DO before my new disks get here, I'm stuck. Also, what happens if I get the new version and there's a bug or something else about it that I don't like? Once again, I'm stuck.
    Maybe I'm just being paranoid.
