How do I take Final Cut Pro off one computer and move it to a new one?

I'm using Final Cut Pro Academic, and I can only run the program on one computer. If I'm getting a new computer, how do I move the program from my old computer to my new computer? Is there a way to "deauthorize" my old computer? If there is, I can't seem to find it.
Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Doug

Excellent! Do I need to do anything to ensure the the program installs on the new computer? Do I need to make sure the computer is connected to the Internet when I uninstall the program from the old computer?

In Final Cut Pro I was trying to move an Event Library from one hard drive to another as explained in the Help section. After doing so, I received a message that my event is already open with the same identifier as the new one I just creat

In Final Cut Pro I was trying to move an Event Library from one hard drive to another as explained in the Help section. After doing so, I received a message that my event is already open with the same identifier as the new one I just created on the new disk. It says the second document cannot be opened and to move one of these documents out of your Final Cut Events folder. It also says to avoid this problem, copy events from within Final Cut Pro, but that is what I did in the first place. What should I do to avoid the double opening conflict?

What exactly are you doing and what version are you using with OS X 10.8?

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 do I unsync my iPhone from my old computer and sync it to my new one?

I am unable to access my iPhone on my new computer without erasing and syncing all my data on my iPhone. I no longer have my old computer so unsyncing from that computer or transferring the data from it is out of the question. I have important settings, contacts, pictures, etc. that I don't want to lose from erasing my iPhone. However, I want to be able to actually put stuff on my phone. I attempted to backup my iPhone to my new computer and it worked. Yet, it seemed like it only backed up the apps on my iPhone. Is there a way to keep everything the way it is now on my iPhone (including app layout, settings, and such) and still sync to my new computer?

The warning message provided is all iTunes content on your iPhone will be erased, not all settings and data. The same applies when selecting to transfer any photos from the new computer. If you had a computer backup for your old computer that included your iTunes library and all photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your computer that could be transferred to your new computer, this wouldn't be a problem.
iTunes includes an option to transfer all iTunes content on your iPhone that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes Store. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. Or with your iPhone connected, right click on your iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Transfer Purchases.
There are some 3rd party utilties that provide for transferring photos from an iPhone that were transferred to the iPhone from a computer, but the original resolution of these photos will be lost. When transferring photos from a computer, the photos are optimized for viewing on the iPhone. The same utilities provide for transferring music from an iPhone that was not purchased from the iTunes Store.
Contacts, settings, and photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are not affected by this.

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.

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

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 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 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.

I have purchased Final Cut Pro for my imac and now want to put it onto my macbook air so I can use it when away from my desk. How can I do this

I took away my backup disk with me so just took it from there excellent. I am back home at present working on my imac. When I go to use my macbook air on these projects (when away on boat) is it easiest to simply copy the Project and Events folders in total from my imac onto the other machine and do the same upon my return in reverse? I don't use icloud
