Final Cut Studio 2 System Requirements...

"An AGP or PCI Express Quartz Extreme graphics card (Final Cut Studio is not compatible with integrated Intel graphics processors)"
I have a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Can someone tell me if this is considered an integrated Intel graphics processor. If so, I cant use FCP?

Can someone tell me if this is considered an integrated Intel graphics processor.
No. it isn't. The specification you gave refers to the CPU, not the graphics capability.
That model shipped with an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro graphics card.
You can use FCP with the computer.

  • No Final Cut Studio System ID file: Must re-enter the SN every time.

    I was having trouble with needing to re-enter the FCS 3 SN every time I open an app. I am going mad. Another thread said to delete the Final Cut Studio System ID file then restart the program. Well now I have no Final Cut Studio System ID file and I STILL need to enter the SN every **** time I launch a program.
    This was an upgrade from the FCS academic version.
    Any help?

    OK, let's give this a try.
    First, let's create the systemid file again by launching Final Cut Pro and and re-register. This should create the files in the /tmp/ directory.
    Then run this command in the Terminal.
    launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.aelwriter.plist
    launchctl start com.apple.aelwriter
    Finally, run this command in the Terminal. It will ask you to enter your admin passward.
    sudo /usr/sbin/AELWriter -installer
    The files should have moved from /tmp/ to /Library/Application Support/ProApps/. If not then, something might be preventing from moving those files... perhaps a permission problem?

  • Final Cut Studio 2: Requirements and Recommendations

    Hello Final Cut Studio 2 Experts,
    I'm considering purchasing Final Cut Studi 2, and to make sure that I'll benefit from the full range of specific application (FCS/motion/color...) and I'd like to ask few questions (5 main points) regarding requirements and recommendations. So, please be prepared for much reading as I am not an expert on the matter. I like to know if my computer accepts any further hardware parts highly recommended and if I can purchase and install them myself. And yes, you should also know that I intend to use a Panasonic multi-format (HD/SD) camera for capturing and exporting videos.
    N.B. Please note that the full list of my Hardware contents appear at the bottom of this text.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE for your expert advise!
    So, here we go:

  • Final cut studio system recommendations

    i cant find the system recommendations for final cut studio, only final cut studio 2.
    i have a 1.6ghz single-core Powermac G5 with 768mb memory that works well enough with final cut studio. i wouldn't mind making it as fast as possible and was wondering where i can get good but cheap memory and how i could further boost my machine.
    help anyone?

    RAM can be had from Crucial.com
    Don't know anything about processor accelerators. You might check over in the hardware section of the forum. Lots of smart people over there to offer advice.

  • Cannot install Final Cut Studio on new Mac Pro

    When I go to install Final Cut Studio on my new Mac Pro, it tells me that "Final Cut Studio Installer requires that your system have a Quartz Extreme capable video card."
    I have the ATI 5870 and, just a wild guess here, I'm betting it does support Quartz Extreme.
    A software update doesn't help me here because I cannot get the software installed the first place to be able to update it. What should I do?

    FCS 1...Final Cut Pro 5.0? Won't work on an Intel. PowerPC only. You need at least 5.1...which wasn't a free upgrade, so updating won't work. You need FCP 5.1, FCP 6 or the most recent FCP 7. Those are the only versions that will work on the newer macs.

  • Cannot install Final Cut Studio 7 on new Mac Pro

    I've just purchased Final Cut Studio 7 (Academic edition) for my Mac Pro (brand new G4 running 10.6.2), and it refuses to install. When I start the download package I get an Alert:
    "Final Cut Studio Installer requires that your system have a Quartz Extreme capable video card."
    and just quits. I looked on the specs online (http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/specs/) and it states that I need
    "ATI or NVIDIA graphics processor (integrated Intel graphics processors not supported)"
    I have 2 NVIDIA graphics cards, both GeForce GT 120. Are these not Quartz Extreme capable video cards?

    First of all you don't have a G4. A G4 is an obsolete computer that doesn't run Final Cut Studio.

  • Final Cut Studio Keeps Asking For Serial Number

    I use an imac. I currently use final cut studio 3. After approx. 2 maybe 3 weeks the software will stop working. It boots up to the registration screen. I will enter my name and the orginal serial number but it tells me the serial number is not valid. What is causing this and how can I prevent? If I unload software and reload, it works but will kick me out again after uses.

    Go to the following location: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Pro Apps.
    Delete the file Final Cut Studio System ID.
    The next tme you launch one of the apps it will ask for your serial number - hopefully for the last time.
    If it happens again, something is causing that file to be corrupted, probably by writing its own data there.
    Try the above anyway, it might just stick this time.

  • G4 and Final Cut Studio 2?

    I'm running a dual 1GHz power pc G4. Thinking about installing Leopard and Final Cut Studio 2. I'm editing DV not HD. Is my G4 going to handle? Or, should I think again?
    Thanks,
    m

    Don't do it. You will hose yourself big time like I did. Final Cut Studio 2 requires a processor speed of 1.25GHz or faster. It does not care thet you have a dual 1GHz. I have a Dual 1GHz G4 as well and FCS2 would not work. I had to uninstall it and start over by installing my first version of FCP and all of the upgrades to get it back to 5.1.2.
    Hope it's not to late.

  • Serial Number in Final Cut Studio

    I am having issues with Final Cut Studio. I bought Final Cut Studio and installed all of the applications on to my iMac but when I choose to load any of the pro applications it will ask for the serial number. I type the serial number in and then the relevant program will load - is there anyway that I can get the software or computer to remember the serial number so that I don't have to keep typing it in?
    Many thanks,
    Phil

    The file "Final Cut Studio System ID" is likely corrupted.
    Go here to delete it: Hard Drive/Library/Application Support/ProApps.
    Launch one of the FCS apps, enter your serial again. Hopefully it will stick now.

  • Final Cut Studio 2: needing to update older version before install

    I am trying to install FCS 2 upgrade from FCS, but it tells me I have an older version and that it "needs to be updated" before I can continue. The manual says that "To avoid compatibility issues, the Final Cut Studio installer requires you to update all Final Cut Studio applications to the version included with Final Cut Studio 2." I am not sure what this means, since I am just now installing FCS 2. I've read the messages here about upgrading from FCP 5.0.4, my FCP version, to 5.1 via a crossgrade on disks from Apple. Does this mean that I need to buy this crossgrade before I can finish the upgrade to FCS 2? This requirement is not listed on the FCS 2 box, but I can't seem to find anything else that would "update" my older version. And is this true for each of the other applications in the suite?
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    No, you don't need to buy the crossgrade. I just updated the PPC version of FCS to FCS2 yesterday. (I had transferred these applications over to my new Intel Mac from a G5 even though I knew they wouldn't run on the Intel Mac until I could update with the Universal version). What I did end up having to do was to manually delete everything from the PPC installation (applications, preferences, application support files, etc.). Then install from the FCP2 disks, having your old FCP registration number ready to enter in the dialogue box that comes up when you try to upgrade. While the installer says you are upgrading, in fact it installs the new universal versions of the applications.

  • Final Cut Studio Crossgrade License Question

    Our office is in the process of updating all our G5s with the FCS crossgrade and have run into a little snag. The update comes with one serial number for Studio and it is presumable that it replaces and supercedes the previous versions of FCP, DVDSP, Motion, Livetype, and Soundtrack... So far, most of the machines are doing that. However, we have a couple of machines that are still attaching themselves with the old licenses.
    Is there a preference file that can be deleted or an xml tag that can be changed in order for the new Final Cut Studio installer to prompt us to enter in the new serial?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    If you rename /Library/Application Support/ProApps/Final Cut Studio System ID that should prompt you the next time you open an application...

  • Final Cut Studio keeps asking for ID registration

    Hi folks. Every time I go to start up ANY of the Final Cut Studio applications it ask me for my name company info and serial number. I am already registered with Apple, so what the ****? Thanks...

    Using the Finder, navigate to the following location:
    systemHD/Library/Application Support/ProApps/Final Cut Studio System ID
    Move the file to the trash, next time you launch FCP, you'll be prompted to enter your serial number, after you do that, a new system ID file will be created. That should solve your problem

  • Final Cut Studio 2 Minimum System Requirements

    Help me Obi Wan Kenobi....You're my only hope
    I own a Dual 867 MHz Power PC G4 with 1.25 GB of ram and want to purchase Final Cut Studio 2, OS X v10.5 Leopard and Adobe Photoshop CS3. I know Adobe Photoshop CS3 and Leopard are compatible, However what concerns me is Final Cut Studio 2. These are the Minimum System Requirements stated [A Mac computer with a 1.25GHz or faster PowerPC G4 or G5, Intel Core Duo, Intel Core 2 Duo, or Intel Xeon processor] So my question is would Final Cut Studio 2 work efficiently or even at all on my computer? My thinking is with collectively 1734 GHz power it should work, But i could also be delusional. I really would hate to end of buying it only to find put it won't work.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    If you're LUCKY, you might find a replacement processor card for your MDD Powermac G4 - (ideally dual 1.42GHz) - maybe eBay? - maybe from a Mac "breakers yard"? or someone selling off parts from a blown motherboard example?
    It's a drop-in replacement, assuming you're OK with a screwdriver and replacement thermal paste.

    And it is running OSX 10.6.5
    I mainly want to run the Final Cut Pro 6 from the FCS2 Suite.
    Will it work!?
    Any help gratefully recieved.
    Many thanks

    Well I've asked him if he will. He's an Amazon seller, so... fingers crossed. Are there any other ways I can check? I've looked at the minimum system requirements on the Apple site, and it seems to be okay, but of course the Apple rep I spoke to seemed very doubtful (said that I should have to re-install the older OSX (5.5?) (that was out at the same time)  by partioning my computer, so I could run both, and wanted to sell me FCP X instead.  I of course told him I had heard the reviews and would only buy it over the counter named "my dead body". He promised me he wasn't on a commission basis, but.... he didn't seem very helpful!   Cheers Ian.

  • Which system for Final Cut Studio upgrade...iMac or MacBook Pro?

    I am currently using FCE on a Powerbook G4 and am considering upgrading to Final Cut Studio. Which system would give me better performance: New iMac 24" (2.8 Penryn processor) or MacBook Pro (2.5 Penryn processor)? Does the NVIDIA graphics card for the iMac upgrade significantly improve editing performance.. or is the AGI 2600 Pro card sufficient? Anything else worth considering when comparing these systems?
    Any input is appreciated... thanks.

    FW 400 is enough to deal with DV footage,
    Not all HD formats require eSATA drives, DVCPRO HD for example can be handled by FW 400 or FW 800 drives and HDV streams pretty much the same DV does.
    Things change if at some point you need to deal with Uncompressed SD or HD, ProRes etc.
    eSATA then would become mandatory.
    If you'd like to set up a desktop then MacPro is what I suggest.
    If you don't make a living from editing then I guess an iMac will do for a while.
    A MacPro allows you to host/replace multiple internal drives, host/replace capture cards or GPUs if you need for business purposes.
    Increase RAM up to 32GB etc
    iMac does not offer such options.
    Your call,
