How do I make final cut pro 10.0.9 work with os x yosemite

Was slow to upgrade desktop to Yosemite. Now find that Final Cut Pro version 10.0.9 will now open or work.  I've seen several posts - and have attempted those solutions but before I can get to it, the program automatically shuts down.  Any suggestions?

Upgrade to the latest version of FCPX, which is necessary in Yosemite.

  • How can I make Final cut pro 7 and Yosemite work?

    Hi dear Apple.
    I have this huge problem with Final cut pro 7 and Yosemite.
    I have tried to install it on a Mac book pro that has Yosemite but it doesn't work.
    I have an I mac with finalcut pro 7 working on Lion but I need to upgrade it to Yosemite to be able to use CC Adobe.
    I have a feature film worth 6,7 million SEK with Final cut pro 7 and I can't translate it to XML files to premiere cause it is in its last editing process. I get an error everytime I try. Also the last version of Fcp (X) ***** for a professional editor. So.. My only option is to finish this film in Fcp7.
    How can I use Yosemite and still be able to keep Fcp7?
    Please help me or do something about this issue soon. I bought fcp7 for 11000 SEK at the time that was quite expensive. 

    Hi Meg the dog! Thanx for answering!
    I know it was left to die 4 years ago. I just think its ****** up.. I work with documentaries and it takes quite a while to finish. I have done one for 6 years now. If I had known that Fcp7 was left to die I would never had started to edit 6 years ago...
    I did try this recommended on the forum by another user:
    Go to the app location in finder, CTRL click on the app and choose [Show Package Contents]. A folder [Contents] appears, click on it and choose [MacOS]. You'll see a Unix executable. Double click, you'll start Terminal. At the same time fcp will launch. After fcp is launched, close terminal and confirm when asked. Now fcp is up and running. Close fcp and the next time, just open fcp the normal way. DONE!
    But it doesn't work for me. I can't launch fcp7.
    I have Fcp7 Installed on my I mac and I wonder if that will effect fcp7 if I upgrade to Yosemte?
    I tryed to export XML to work on premiere and this is what happends:
    Any recommendations? I am going crazy here..

  • How do I make Final Cut Pro X run smoother and faster?

    Heres my problem with Final Cut Pro X:
    -Most days it runs very choppy.
    -It's slow
    -it cuts certain parts of the audio while previewing my project.
    -Only on a good day, it runs well
    Heres what i've tried doing already:
    -Restarting my mac
    -Closing all my other applications that were open
    -Clearing space
    My Macbook Pro:
    Processor: 2.66 Ghz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512MB
    Software: OS X 10.8 (12A269)
    Year: 2011
    Should I upgrade the Ram? Processor? Graphics card? if you have any suggestions i'd be then happy to get them.

    Your system should be able to run FCPX smoothly as it's currently configured.
    Run Activity Monitor and check for memory leak. If you see that RAM is not being released, try repairing permissions.

  • How did i get final cut pro 5.0 to work on mac book pro

    anyone know why its working fine?? i just put the disk and it seems to work beautiful...

    There is nor reason for it to not work, most PowerPC applications will work on the new Intel based systems. The 5.1 update for Final Cut Pro is meant to run a lot faster thats about it (other than possibly some bug fixes).

  • Final cut pro HD 2 not working with new updates

    recently purchased a new imac. Most of my old programs were not supported. I updated to 10.9 from 10.5. Now, all the programs are running except Final Cut pro HD 2. I get a message sayin"power pc applications are no longer supported" Any suggestions? I read in an old discussion (from 2011) that I might need to download Rosetta?

    I do not know which version of FCP the OP is using as I do not recognize his designation of Final Cut Pro HD 2.
    However, last weekend I attempted to install Final Cut Studio 2 (Final Cut Pro 6) into Snow Leopard installed in Parallels, as a test.  It failed!
    Final Cut's installer suggested the following problems: not enough VRAM - 64 needed; 0 present (even though Parallels is set for more than the minimum required VRAM); and a missing video card.
    I attempted to work around this problem by using Pacifist to install FCS2, which worked, as far as the installation was completed.  However, when I attemped to run FCS2, a dialog box came up with indicated that same two problems and then it quit.

  • Is Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 working with OS X 10.10.3?

    Apple just updated OS X Yosemite to 10.10.3 and I'm using Final Cut Pro 10.1.4. Are there any reports of compatibility problems using FCPX with the latest
    OS X update?

    During an editing session yesterday of about 6 hours my Mac shut down twice for no apparent reason.
    This is the first time this has happened on this machine.
    Looks very much like a Kernel Panic to me.
    I was pushing the machine hard and it was heating up using AVCHD PAL 1920 x 1080P footage.
    Could be just too hot and it didn't it??
    Also getting a (new for me) Background Tasks busy when shutting down, there are no BG Tasks running that I'm aware of.
    The only thing changed is the move to 10.10.3.

  • How to export from Final Cut Pro after downloading Maverick

    Final Cut Pro no longer exports after installing Maverick.  I get this: The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)  - have paid for Compressor and instaled it - but it makes no difference.

    But how do I update Final Cut Pro 10.0.3?  Apple says all my updates for everything are fine.  It worked well before I installed Maverick, and now I can't get any of my short films out of it!  They won't copy over to IMovie so I have to start again and basically scrap Final Cut Pro - which seems a bit unfair just for updating to Maverick.  Makes the free download a bit pricey in the long term.

    how do i get final cut pro x to recognize my time capsule in event library?

    Yeah I'm getting the same issue.  I purchased a new Mac Mini yesterday purely to use the new FCPX, and now on day 1 I'm already running into problems... please don't make me switch to Premiere.
    Set up the computer with external yesterday, never set anything to Time Machine.  Here's a screenshot of the drive, formatted on Mac OS Extended (Journaled):
    And here's a screenshot of FCPX not recognizing the drive:
    Apple please respond to this post, would really appreciate some help here troubleshooting. 

  • How Can I transfer Final Cut Pro X to another computer

    How can I transfer Final Cut Pro X to another computer without connecting the two

    As Kappy said, download it from the App Store - this will give you a brand new copy. However unlikely, it's just possible you might be copying a corrupt version from the original computer.
    In the App Store, make certain you use the same Apple ID that the App was purchased with.

    How do you import final cut pro projects into imovie?
    (like you create a project in final cut but i want to save it, and import it into imovie..

    Hi -
    Mr. Ross is right, there is no direct way to export your project with all it's elements into iMovie.
    If, on the other hand, you have a completed sequence in FCP that you want to export as a finished element, then import into iMovie for you to re-edit or apply titles, music, etc. you would:
    In FCP:
    Click on the Sequence Icon you want to export in your browser.
    Go to the menu File > Export > Quicktime Movie. Give your movie a name a navigate to where you want it stored. Make sure you choose Settings: Current Settings and have the Make Movie Self Contained checked. Click Save.
    Close FCP and open iMovie.
    In iMovie:
    Go to the menu File > Import > Movies and navigate to the movie you just exported from FCP. Choose if you want your movie imported in it's original size, etc.
    Click Import. Your movie will be imported into iMovie.
    Note that using this method only gives you only the elements that made up your FCP sequence, so this may not give you the flexibility you need.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I stop Final Cut Pro 10.1 from  introducing artifacts?

    How do I stop Final Cut Pro 10.1 from introducing artifacts?
    Can someone please tell me what do do differently so that my edited video does not develop artifacts that were not in the original camera file.  My Sony HDR CX900 produces crazy detailed XAVC S video that FCPX seems to import with no problem but FCPX is introducing artifacts: some on import and more on share. The artifact in the examples below appears above and below the horizontal rope line on this model boat. Please look closely. It doesn't look to bad here, but it dances on my screen. Also, the video generally degrades much more than I would have hoped. How can I get more professional results?  Sorry for the long post, but more information now might save time and questions.
    Below is a portion of a frame opened in quicktime directly from camera's card.
    Below is the associated Inspector for above frame
    Here is the same after it is imported into FCPX. Optimized and Proxy Media were created, but FCPX seems to select what to play so I can't tell you which one is shown here.
    Here is the associated Inspector capture from FCPX.
    Here is the same frame once again after it is Shared as ProRes 422. Note the horizontal lines above and below the rope lines on this model yacht.
    Here is Inspector for the above file.
    Here is the same once again after it is Shared as H.264 Better Quality.
    I tried converting to Proress with 5Dto RGB and Brorsoft Video Converter. They both went though the process, but introduced similar artifacts.
    How can I get more professional results?

    Russ H.
    When I right click on the clip in the browser and select Transcode Media, the dialog box opens, Optimize Media is checked, but OK is greyed out. Transcode is not an option. I think this points to the fact that FCPX is doesn't need to transcode XAVC-S or FCPX can't transcode XAVC-S. This is a new Sony codec produced by the new HDR CX900. The codec is HD at 50Mbps.
    Tom Wolsky,
    I selected Optimized Media in the viewer and both the timeline and exports (422 and H.264) look great.
    The 24 second long exported video jumps a couple of times as if skipping a frame, as it plays. Could this be related to 29.97 instead of 30fps?
    Thank you so much for getting the image right. Now if I can just eliminate those couple of small jumps.

  • How to upgrade my Final Cut Pro 6 to X

    How to upgrade my Final Cut Pro 6 to X?

    There is no upgrade to FCPX, you have to buy it for $299.99. Yes, Russ is right, FCPX is very different than previous versions, I realized that I would have to start from scratch with it. Look up free tutorials online, there are a few good ones. If you try and just jump in, you'll get very frustrated very fast. Take the time to learn it before you try any important projects.
