How long does it normally take to install Final Cut?

Hi, I just got a new MacBook Pro. I'm installing Final Cut Studio 2 on it and I was wondering how long it normally takes to install that program on this type of computer. Right now it's saying 10 hours (and that's after 2 hours having already passed). Is that normal? Is my MacBook Pro going at the right speed? Is it normal for the laptop to be hot?
Thanks

10 hours does not seem right at all. Should take several minutes at best. The entire OS installation is under an hour. Post your issue in the FCS forum area here:

    Sara-
    I did see your response.  Thanks.  The other thing that happened was after I enabled Adobe on my Dell it apparently knocked out my Mozilla.  Now I can't get internet connection unless I use Internet Explorer which I would prefer not to.  I'm going to visit our IT folks tomorrow and see if I can get some of this resolved.
    The PDF files I obtained that I am trying to transfer to Excel may be too complex because there is a great deal of extraneous text information in the basic document that lies outside of the tables I want to transfer.  I'm going to try and highlight the tables only and see if this works.
    Thanks for taking the time answering.
    Best,

    About 5 minutes and that's actually pretty slow for such a minor tool. if you have issues, just explain them and provide the necessary technical info.

  • How long does it normally take to download the windows support software

    I am trying to use Boot Camp to install Windows 7 but the system seems to freeze during "Downloading Windows support software..."  Does anyone know how long this process normally should take?

    600MB so should, 10 minutes max, real? too long by 8 hrs
    this is what "support for Windows on Mac" ever since.it went to a DL service
    Compare that to 1000s of people installing Lion, iOS and other updates
    and that no change or improvement in months and the yr since it was offered.
    This is what lack of having a DVD in part, or not just post forall Mac ownerslike any other motherboard vendor does for customers.ps I have had adl link but it is no longer current latest driver set I've been told.

    How long does the latest Apple TV software update take to install?

    I started the Apple TV software update at 8:00pm, hoping to watch a movie that night.  After two hours, the update was still not complete - the status bar was stuck in the middle - so I left the update running and went to bed.  The next morning, the update was finally complete, so it must have taken several hours.  I have since installed an AirPort Extreme router - perhaps the next Apple TV software update will go faster!  Updates on my iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro are complete within minutes and I expected the same with Apple TV.  All in all, I really enjoy the Apple products and technology.

  • How long does lion OS take to install?

    I downloaded Lion OS two days ago and my MacBook is still showing the spinning wheel after  36 hours.  Any idea how long it takes to install Lion OS 10.7.2?
    Javapie3

    Just to check - have you successfully downloaded Lion and is it just the install process that's taking ages?
    If it's downloaded OK the install time is way too long. I would have thought half an hour max to install if everything goes as it should. Time to quit and start over.
    The downloaded Lion installer should be in your Applications folder (it disappears after installation, so it's a good idea to copy it to a USB stick/DVD so that you don't have to re-download it in the future).
    Hopefully the failed attempt at installing won't stop the Mac booting.
    Before running the installer again I'd suggest running Disky Utility to verify/repair your HD and also run Repair Disk Permisssions.

  • How long does this usually take to install?

    My photoshop has been taking a very long time and I wanted to make sure that I was doing it correctly.

    Is this resolved yet?  What operating system are you using?  The progress bar when installing uses the first half for the download, and second half for the installation, so if it gets half way and appears to go no further, there is a problem with the install.  Best practice in this situation is to restart your computer, and run the Desktop Application Manager as Administrator.  (Right click from Windows.  I don't know about OSX)  That usually leads to a successful install.
    Note that if you have tried to install and it has all gone pear shaped further into the installation process, you probably need to use the Cleaner tool

  • How long does Photoshop CC take to install?

    It's at 14% and taken an hour and a half to get that far. This is BS for just one app.
    Help?

    That explains a lot. Adobe is stupid! When something says that it is installing and takes forever.....you think there is an issue. If I had known it was downloading....I'd be happier and no thread would of been made.
    I do have a slow internet connection. My system; i7 3930k, 500GB SSD & GTX 760.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • Replacing Shipment Pending.   How long does it normally take for it to be shipped?

    The website says one week, from when they received it. But I was told something different when I called in (was told 10 bus days) 
    I have been told by a friend that Apple will NOT ship a replacement phone back until they have one available that is the same (model, gb size etc) as the one I sent them, however, I sent them the 3gs, which is quite old by Apple standards.  So now I am worried that I may be without my iPhone for an extremely long time.  
    Has anyone else gone through this?  
    I can't seem to find an email address or anything like that to ask Apple directly, and because of a nasty cold, i am not able to call them as I have lost my voice, so I thought I would see if anyone here had gone through the same thing, or could direct me where to find the information that I am looking for.
    Thank you.

  • How Long Does Bootcamp asst take to install??? necessary?

    i just got a mac book pro 2011 i am new to it and trying to merge my PC with it. i installed the latest Lion, purchased parallels desktop 7 for Mac, installed that, then Windows 7. during bootcamp dowload stays froze in the middle.  i dont know if i can merge computers with out boot camp. if i click on windows parrallel it just closes again. i cant instruct it to merge with out it opening. i tried to uninstall parrarellel and re install but it says i cant because its running. when i try to quit it, its not listed in the running list. so i cnnot transfer my old PC over, i am wondering if this has to do with bootcamp assistant either being stuck or taking a lifetime to install. HELP

    You are mixing me up.
    If you want Windows to run natively, you install Windows on its own partition.
    Boot Camp Assistant first partitions the drive space; downloads drivers (which is slow and troublesome)
    Parallels can use Windows partition - later - so you have guest VM OS plus dual booting.
    Apple has Windows Migration Assistant, or you can use Windows Easy Transfer (if you ran that first on originial system)
    If you have trouble with Parallels I'd pursue their Help, FAQs and forum.

  • How long does it normally take to wirelessly update a 4S iPhone to the new version 7.0.4 IOS?

    I'm updating my iPhone 4S from the 5.1.1 IOS to the latest version 7.0.4, I think.  It seems to be stuck at almost 90% complete.  It's been updating for about 3 hours now.  I'm doing the update wirelessly using the Settings>General> Update operations on the phone.  Should I stop the update?  Should I try to do the update through iTunes instead?  Would there be problems if I stopped the update now?
    Thanks for your help.  Advice will be greatly appreciated.
