How do I Upgrade Final Cut Pro from 10.0.6?

Do I upgrade Final Cut Pro 10.0.6 from iTunes or though the App Store? Or both? It will not work now that Yosemite 10.10.1 is installed.
Thanks.
-Mike.

BTW:
There are MAJOR changes using the newer version.
Do some research before proceeding.
See here for an overview:
FCP X Library Updating
The tutorial speaks about Mavericks but Yosemite has the same rules.

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.

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.

Why do I have 2 fcpbundles after upgrading final cut pro?

After upgrading to final cut pro 10.1 I have 2 bundles with different projects in each. Does anyone know of a way to merge these bundles so I only have one? Do I just open the package contents of both and drag files from one into the other or will that make a mess?
Also, both of these are on an external drive. When I open final cut pro from my applications folder, it only shows my "macintosh HD" events and projects but when I close FCP and open the specific G-Drive's projects and events.fcpbundle it says it's loading all the events but then it gets stuck on a specific one and doesn't finish loading. It gets stuck whether I open one or the other (of the above bundles shown in the picture) any tips on getting my events to load?
Thanks,
Caleb

The automatic appending of -2 drives my crazy. I had MyPictures-2-2-2.lrcat there for a minute.
Consider (with Lr closed) renaming the lrcat file and preview .lrdata folders, and preferrably the catalog parent folder to match.

Trouble restoring final cut pro from time machine

I cant install registered version of final cut pro from time machine after system restore. It asks for serial number, but I dont have it. How do I find it?

I don't use time machine, but my understanding is that needing to re-authorize the software with the serial numbers when you do a restore from time machine is the way time machine works.

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.

Cannot download Final Cut Pro from the app store

Hello,
I cannot download Final Cut Pro from the app store.
I says "Failed to download" and error has occurred
What is wrong?
is it my Macbook?

I had a problem way back in the olden days, i.e., FCPX 10.0.2, and finally gave up and called the Apple Store using a land-line phone.
Anyway, (this was a couple years ago), if I remember right, they passed me off to someone in the FCPX group and I got the App. However, this was not a really goo way to go because for many updates afterward, everytime I wanted to update I had to go thorugh the same ritual.
Finally, probably around 10.0.8, things got "fixed" and since then I've been able to go direct and download it from the App Store without having to make a phone call.
My suggestion would be to try calling the App Store. Maybe, if there is a "global problem" and they get a lot of calls, they will fix it.
Heck, maybe write a Knowlede Base (KB) article about it.
Disclaimer: I didn't check to see if there was one.

Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
