No. You simply sign in to the App Store and download it again. AppStore knows that you already paid for it.

I just purchased Final Cut Pro from the App Store and it will not download to my computer. I try and install it from my purchases file but nothing happens. Any suggestions?

If it's in the purchased page and doesn't download, you should contact Apple.

Will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

Thanks Tom.
So I will need upgrade to FCP 7 first, then convert to an XML file in 6.0.6, then convert to another file that FCP X can read? I have a lot of half done projects that need finishing. Is this process very complex and time consuming?
Maybe I should be approaching this from a different angle. The reason I am asking is that I now need to upgrade to a new Mac book pro and have been told that I cant run final cut pro 6.0.6 on the new models using maverick. Is this true?

I cleared out a movie I made in final cut pro, now fcp will not open completely, I get the logo with all the names running through but never get timeline, browser or anything else? Help!! Larry

I removed a movie I had made and now when I try to open final cut pro, all the stuff shows up with the names, etc, but that is it, I don't get anything else, and, final cut does not show at the top of my computer. I have the 27 inch iMac with the intel processor, any help will be appreciated. Larry

Sounds like you may have deleted more than just the movie file. It the FCP application in the Applications folder? if so, try launching from there. If not, you'll neeed to uninstall the app completely using this: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/ then reinstall from the original install discs.
You may want to first try trashing FCP's preferences.

Need help: Can't import old video into Final Cut Pro X or iMovie

I am trying to import some footage from my old camcorder into my iMac.
I have a Sony DVMC-DA1 connected via firewire. The setup works great in iChat. We were able to video chat to my wife's computer and she could see and hear the camcorder footage. iMovie does not recognize the device at all. Final Cut Pro recognizes it. It appears in the Camera Import window, but when I try to import some footage, nothing gets recorded. Oddly, there are two time counters in the import window. The one on the left increments as the footage 'imports' but the one on the right stays at zero.
My iMac is the newest 2011 model and I am using the latest versions of iMovie and FCPX.
How do I get either iMovie or FCPX to import my footage from the DVMC-DA1?

This guy did a tutorial for 2 free ways of importing video over FW:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVqkSlaTr-k
They both should accept any video over FW. The link for Vidi is old, here's where to find it: http://www.mitzpettel.com/
Good luck.

Annoyed with JVC/Final Cut Pro import problem; will they ever fix this?

Annoyed with Final Cut Pro JVC import problem; will they ever fix this?
I've shot footage on JVC GY-HD111E in the UK in 720p/25p PAL mode.
I'm trying to import lots of short clips (average 10 seconds) into Final Cut Pro (latest version with 720p/25p support) with a new Mac Pro maxed out with ram and 3 extra internal HDs.
Problem is, on a scene-break i.e. pause/stop, Final Cut detects this and creates a new clip, but it takes about 5 seconds to 'searching for media" before it starts the new clip. Because some clips are only very short, this 5 second delay sometimes means I only get the final few frames of a clip, rather than the entire 5 seconds or so of it.
JVC UK are blaming Apple and are saying it is up to them to fix it as Premiere and Edius does not have this problem.
However, Symbiosis in the UK (who do HD-Connect box) say that the JVC ProHD cameras do not wrap the shots up properly at the end, they are kind of left open and this creates problems on scene-breaks.
I've tried turning off the "create new clip on timecode break" etc, but it does not make any difference, when I do this it simply quits capturing on a scene break. Besides I have about 300 cutaways like this and I don't want to spend the rest of the year breaking them up on the timeline as this would be a futile and long workflow.
I'm importing and working on a native HDV 720p/25p timeline and this is the way I want to work. I've already imported and edited 4 hours of footage, but these 4 hours were easy as all 4 tapes had no start/stop points, they were recorded continuously from beginning to end of tape for 64 minutes each time so importing was no problem; 1 clip per tape.
But now I've come to my 5 tapes containing hundreds of cutaways I'm kind of screwed and need some advise on how I can import them natively in HDV without losing this 5 seconds off the beginning of each clip whilst FCP searches for the media each time.
I've been told this issue is definately with FCP, any ideas how I can get around this?

I haven't heard of this JVC/FCP problem, so I can't comment on it. However, whoever shot the cutaways didn't do you, the editor, any favors.
I've been doing video since 1984, and I've got to say, anyone who shoots a scene that is only 5 or 6 seconds long on tape is making a huge mistake, and it's been that way since the beginning of computerized editing in the late 70s.
Shoot at least 5 seconds of pre-roll before the shot begins, then roll tape for at least 5 seconds after you've got the shot. That's the protocol I've followed for 22 years now. Tape is cheap, edit suite time isn't.
But laying down only 5 to 6 seconds for a scene is wrong, IMO.

Error when encoding final cut pro x project, will compressor help?

Having a problem trying to export a FCP X project. As it is exporting about half way through it will come up with this error message:
The Share operation export file has failed. Quicktime error -50
I noticed in the project library that there is an error icon next to this project and not sure why.
I made a duplicate project and cut it in half to see if that would work and getting the same error message.
How can I trouble shoot this and if I purchased Compressor would that help me export this project?
I am on a tight deadline and this has never happened before, any ideas?

OK, you are talking to a newbie with FCP X...came from iMovie and did a number of projects with FCP X already but don't know the ins and outs of this program. If you could talk me through the steps and where to find Repair Permissions (is that using the disk utility and repairing permissions there?), Would I trash all the Render files here including the folders, will they rebuild?, Where do you turn off the background rendering?
I should mention that I took an older project and exported it to see if it would work and it did, without a problem. I am now making copies of this project and removing sections to see if I can isolate the corrupt files, if there are any.
FLASH....I just found the corrupt files. The last section I removed seemed to be the issue. I tried to render it again and it worked fine.
Now I will have to go back and see if I can narrow that section down to find the file that is causing the issue. WOW what a mess. Is there any program that can identify these issues that doesn't cost as much as FCP?

Please please help me!!!!! Final Cut Pro Crashing!

I need help desperately a project that I have been working on for ages for some reason now crashes once the project has opened and i dont know why! i dont know if anyone can offer me any help or advice on what to do but im stuck on what to do! i am not connected to the internet on the mac in question so i can't send a bug report. it seems to take a long time initially it seems to take a long time to read the project but once it opens it asks me to reconnect some media then it crashes. please if anyone can help me do so asap! it is urgent i fix this problem!!!

Sounds like it might be a corrupted media file.
Assuming all the media for this project are on a separate drive from the drive the FCP project file is on, you can simply eject the media drive and confirm that the project loads without issue.
If it does, then you need to shut down and reboot. Open the project, but when you get the Reconnect window, click OK instead of Reconnect.
Then select a few clips in the Browser, right-click (Control-click) and select Reconnect Media. Keep doing that until you locate the clip that crashes FCP.
Recover from the crash and trash that media file, then recapture.

Final cut pro crashed and will not open back up..

Hold Option-Command when you launch the application to reset the preferences.

Help with sharing on dual layer in final cut pro x

I am struggling to share on a dual layer disc using final cut pro X it says that the sharing has stopped and that there must be a problem with the disc? but when I share onto a single layer disc its all fine

Certainly should work as DL.
Try encoding as a disk image. Does that work?
It could possibly be a media problem; try another brand if that's feasible.

IM IN SERIOUS NEED OF YOUR HELP! HDV 1080i 50 capture into Final cut pro 7?

Hi everyone, Ive just recently got myself an IMAC with final cut studio. I also have a Sony HVR Z5. I have been shooting on the following settings:
HDV 1080i 50 (scan type 50)
Ive connected the camera to my computer via firewire but have been having huge problems working out what settings to use? Ive tryed the easy set ups but still no joy? I keep getting the following message pop up:
'No date device. Capture was aborted due to lack of incoming data from device. Check your connections and that the disk is palying'
The disk is def playing on my camera (I can see it on the viewfinder) but not on the computer?
If anyone knows hot to solve this problem could they plare give me step by step instructions on how to set up final cuts capture settings?
Thanks very much

There is only one correct capture preset. Don't go screwing around with trying different ones, you'll just mess up your preferences file and corrupt it.
To start trash your preferences.

Set the HDV 1080i50 preset. Make sure the camera is set to output HDV and that iLink is switched off.

Final Cut Pro slowing down the entire computer - Help!

I wonder if anyone can please help me.
I own Final Cut Studio and everything was running perfectly for several months until recently.
My copy of Final Cut Pro 7 started running very very slowly, even the drop down menus (file, edit e.t.c) would take several seconds to open and would be delayed to the point of being unusable. The effect is such that even upon quitting the program the entire Mac runs too slowly to operate and requires a hard restart.
I should clarify that it makes no difference what project is open, in fact after the re-install there wasn't a single project open however the problem persisted.
After restarting the computer returns to it's usual speed until Final Cut is opened again.
I went to the Apple Store and they told me to reinstall the program and free up some space on my computer, both of which I've just done but to no avail.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? I'm desperate for help as I need this software for my degree. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm using a Mac Book Pro running Leopard, with 41. 68 GB of free space and my copy of Final Cut is legit.

I can understand people's resistance to this process but it is absolutely the only way to ensure a problem free installation of your professional applications.
Herein are X's rules for a happy erase and reinstallation experience.
• Make a list of all Applications to install. Which ones do you need? Go through your Applications and Utilities folder and note which ones you'll want to reinstall. Note the version.
(I don't know about you, but I had a shocking number of apps I downloaded, used for a few times and never used again. Forget installing these disused apps.)
• If you are upgrading from a PPC to an intel machine, you'll want to know if the apps are UB or PPC. Upgrading your PPC software to UB can be a significant cost in a PPC to intel conversion. Know what you are getting into - do a search before installation to see if there is a UB version available. You can find out whether an app is PPC or UB by looking in System Profiler>Software>Applications. This window will also tell you the current installed version number. Generate a .pdf file of it and have everything listed for your records.
• In the list, note whether is was a download or you have a disk. If it was a download, find the DMG or installer package and copy it to an external firewire drive. Put it in a folder titled - Apps to be installed - or something easily identifiable.
• If you need to go back to a previous version (e.g. QT 6.5.2) download the dmg file BEFORE you start the installation process.
• In the list, note if the application is a full install or an UPGRADE. If an upgrade, make sure you have the previous version's disks (as well as the serial numbers - see below).
If the UPGRADE version does not require the previous version to be present - eg when installing the upgrade version of FCP 6, DO NOT install earlier software. All you'll need is the previous serial number. The way to figure this out is to try to install the newest version. If it needs the previous version present before proceeding, the install process will tell you that.
Some upgrades will require that a version of the previous app is on the disk. If this is the case, when you install the first version, simply install the minimum so the app will be on the hard drive. You will need to do this because there will be NOTHING on the disk after you do your clean erase.
• Referencing your list, find ALL your disks before you start. This includes previous versions if you are unsure whether they will be needed.
• Spend some time looking through this forum for Professional Application installation issues. The classic example is a conflict between Logic and FCP. Install FCP first and you'll have no issues.
• Sort your list into an installation sequence. Lay out your disks in that order.
• Referencing the list, make sure you have ALL your serial numbers including those you've downloaded. I've purchased a number of programs on line and the only documentation of the serial number was an email. All those are kept in a dedicated folder in Mac Mail. For serial numbers that arrived via electronic means, use cut and paste instead of re-typing whenever possible. This will prevent errors in transcription.
In making the list, TEXT EDIT works ok, (I use Excel). Text edit has the benefit of being easily readable on any mac. Print the list out for reference, put a copy on a flash drive or a firewire drive where you can access it to cut and past serial numbers during the installation process.
• Recognize this is going to take some time. Ranting, drinking too much coffee, swearing, sitting in front of the computer watching the progress bar, etc will not make things go faster. All it will to is put you in a really bad frame of mind. Do it over a weekend when you can be multitasking. While you are cleaning off the mountains of paper on your desk or raking the yard, you can take regular breaks to check on progress.
Process -
• Download Carbon Copy Cloner or one of the other backup utilities and do a full backup of your existing system drive to an external firewire drive. Make the drive bootable. *Do not* cheap out on this as this is your insurance policy. If you forget something or can not find a serial number, you often can find it and copy it from the backup system to the newly installed version. Or, if things go horribly wrong, you can simply copy the old system back to your computer and pick up where you left off.
If you have a MacPro or G5 tower, an alternative to cloning your existing system disk is to pick up a new hard drive to use as the clean new system disk. Your existing system disk will be the clone.
• Once you have gathered and organized all the materials and backed up the drive or installed the new system drive ...
• Insert your OSX installation disk, reboot the computer from it and erase the hard drive. Use the ZEROs option as this will map out any bad sectors. This will take time. See the note above.
• Install the OS. If it is an upgrade install, see the note above regarding upgrade installs. Repair Permissions and then run the updates. Repair Permissions.
• Install your applications following your list. Make sure to Repair Permissions after each install and update..
Have fun, be prepared for a few minor glitches. If you multitask, you can get the garage/ or office cleaned out and your computer rebuilt. In all honesty, this process took all weekend plus time in the next week as I discovered apps that needed additional updates, configuration settings, etc. No doubt it would have been faster if I was sitting at the console the whole time, but I was able to get the office cleaned up and organized (which also makes ME much faster). Overall it was a very slick process.
When you have a fully functioning system again (you have tested all applications and everything works), CLONE the new system and put your info, your notes and the disks in a safe place - once you've done this once, why go through the pain of organizing this stuff again ...
Now, rejoice in a much faster machine with a lot more free disk space.
Cheers,
x

If I download New Final Cut Pro X ... Will I Still be able to use my Final Cut Pro 7.0.3?

If the answer is yes how do I separate them? Can they both be in my applications folder? I just want to try the new program.
I have one more question ... Will the New Final Cut Pro X be able to use some of my old footage NTSC DVPro 720x480?
Thank You
roger

The answer is yes to all your questions.
Final Cut Studio gets moved to its own subfolder inside Applications.

Hello guys, so help me, if i will buy a final cut pro from appstore, will i have a .dmg or other type of file, for reinstall it in another mac?
