Not sure what that means…1 minute and 50 seconds? Or 1 hour and 50 minutes?

Buying Older Versions of Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Studio

Is it possible to get new older versions of Final Cut (Pro or Studio) from Apple?
Or License Keys?
I'm not ready to take the plunge to the latest versions yet.
If not from Apple, where would I buy LEGAL versions?

Official Apple stores pull ALL old software the moment new versions come to market. For example, if you tried to purchase a copy of FCS from Apple the day after FCS2 was released, you'll be told it was no longer available. However, there can be a lot of software in other distribution channels - you just have to work harder to find it.
If you go the internet route, you need to be VERY careful that what you purchase will fit your situation. You do not want to be purchasing an UPGRADE package if you do not already own a qualifying product. The registration process will not work without the correct previous version's serial number (SN).
As an example of the subtlety of the situation, if the software is listed as the FCP 5.1 CROSSGRADE, it may or may not include a SN depending on the version it was intended to upgrade. I believe owners of v 5.0 did not get new serial numbers but users of 4.5 and earlier as well as those who had academic licenses received new serial numbers.
No matter what version you purchase, you need to receive all the install disks as well as all written material along with the serial numbers (if they were included - see above). I'm not trying to dissuade you but just letting you know there are a number of 'gotchas' out there.
Good luck,

Animation. How do I import still images in final cut pro x (from dragon frame) duration 3 frames pr. image?

Animation. How do I import still images in final cut pro x (from dragon frame) duration 3 frames pr. image? We have allready tried to set stillimages duration in preferences to 0,08 sek, but it does not have any effect!

You can drag your images to the timeline, select all, ctrl-d and set the duration to 3 frames by typing 3 and enter.
Or you can use Quicktime 7 to "open image sequence", select the desired duration, export your animation to quicktime and import that into FCP X for further editing.

How can I get a version of Final Cut Pro X that works on OS Mountain Lion?

I just downgraded my laptop to its original OS (Lion) and will be upgrading soon to Mountain Lion because this laptop is too old to work with Mavericks or Yosemeti. So far Final Cut Pro X, Motion and Compressor (which I had originally purchased when I first bought the computer) do not work. Will Final Cut Pro X work on Mountain Lion? If not, what can I do to get a version that will work?
Thanks!

10.0.9 is the latest version compatible with Mountain Lion. I found this article which may help you:
http://thefcpxeditor.tumblr.com/post/70885235923/what-i-can-run-fcp-x-10-1-and-1 0-0-9-on-the-same
At the time it was written it was apparently possible to download from the app store with a computer running ML. Maybe this is still the case.
FCP 10.1. has video requirements which are not met by older machines. I'm not sue about 10.0.9 but that might possibly be a 'gotcha'
I'm a bit confused though since if you downgraded you laptop to Lion but Mountain Lion is the latest OS it will run then you must have been running ML already

Can I import projects from the full version of Final Cut Pro X from when I was using the trial version?

So I recently purchased the full edition of Final Cut Pro X, and was wondering why one of the projects I was working on at the time it expired imported back into FCP without asking me, but the other did not. I really need to use this file, but it is in the format of .fcpproject, so I really don't understand why I am not able to use it. It sometimes says when I try to open it that the version of that project was made in an updated version of FCP, or something to that affect, so it cannot be used. I have no idea why it says this, because as far as I know that is un-true. Any ideas?
Edit: I also don't want to delete the trial yet, a little apprehensive, like maybe I need it. But I might if it comes to that. I suppose the time did run out so it is practically worth nothing...

You do not open fcpproject files. You don't double click or anything else. The files have to be in the correct folder structure in the Final Cut Projects folder and the application opens them automatically. Can you post screen shots of the Final Cut Projects folder and its location.

How do I continue editing a project from the trial version of final cut pro to the paid version

I have been working on a project on the trial version of final cut pro x. I bought the full version even though my trial wasn't up yet. When I opened the paid version my projects from the trial are not in there. I also closed the trial and opening the paid version and my projects were still not there. How do I get my projects to show in the paid version?

I have a 'similar' problem, but your advice above does not work (or does not seem to work). My Trail version of Final Cut Pro 10.1.1 expired before I completed my first/only movie project.
I purchased FCP yesterday. Now I want to "import" the video files and the movie project (not sure if that's the correct terminology - I am still a newbie) into FCP 10.1.1 - Please advise?

I need a new license of final cut. Can I buy Final Cut X and use that serial on an older version of Final Cut?

I work in a small studio and we hired a new editor. We are staying on an older version of Final Cut Studio and need a new license/serial so we can run it on the new machine without having the 'protection error' over the network.
We CANNOT upgrade all of the machines at this time - we are in the middle of a few projects and need to keep the workflow going smoothly.
If we purchase the newest version of Final Cut Studio can we use the license on our old product and wait to install the new one until we can upgrade all of the machines at the same time? we're still on studio 6.
Thank you!

>If we purchase the newest version of Final Cut Studio
The newest version of Final Cut Studio was FCS 3 (aka FCS 2009) which contained FCP 7. It has been discontinued by Apple and recalled from retailers. If you can still find a legitimate copy to purchase, you can only use the serial number for that version. Serial numbers from other versions will not work.

How do I obtain DVD Studio Pro....Only in $1,299 version of Final Cut Pro?

I am new to the Mac world. I have been doing some video editing and DVD authoring on a PC using Easy Media Creator and Nero. I wanted to be able to create more professional looking productions so I purchased my iMac. I have used the iMovie app but it seems very 'limited'. I was told that DVD Studio Pro is what I needed for DVD authoring.
Do I need to purchase the $1,299 version of Final Cut Pro in order to get this software? I have not been able to find it as a solo purchase item.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated...

Apple hasn't offered that as a standalone product since January 2006. You may want to look at third-party software.

Which version of Final Cut Pro will work with Mac Book 10.75?

I can not put Final Cut Pro 9 on my Mac Book 10.75 (Lion).
Which version of Final Cut Pro will run on Mac Book 10.75 (Lion).
Thanks

Ok, first, your questions's answers:
FCS1 had a full version & an upgrade from any version of FCP. You only need the serial # handy when installing FCS upgrade.
Now FCS2 has TWO upgrade versions: one was for FCS1 ($499), the other was from any version of FCP ($699).
NOTE: Academic and Not-For-Resale (NFR) versions are not eligible for upgrade.
http://gizmodo.com/252425/apple-rolls-out-final-cut-studio-2-first-impressions
Here's something else to consider: with the march away from the PPC as a whole & your upgrade cost to FCS3 is $299, I would be very careful how much you spend for the older copies.
If FCS1 or 2 is too hard to come by or cost what it did originally (or more), you may want to consider picking up a (used or new) Intel Mac with ATI or Nvidia graphics. even the newest mini might surpise you & get you by until you can afford something else.
Good luck!

Older Cameras and Final Cut Pro 7

Hello all!
I dug out my old SONY DCR-TRV520 this weekend so my son could start playing around with a camera of his own. The camera is a Digital8 camera and has the 4 pin iLink(FW400) interface.
I have used it many, many times in my college days with older versions of Final Cut, up to 4. However when I plugged it in today and turned on Final Cut..it wouldn't launch. As soon as I unplugged the camera, Final Cut sprang to life. However, when I turned on Log & Capture it was not detected.
The only other FW drive I have is a 2TB FW800 drive for my video scratch & render and even with that unplugged I couldn't get the camera to be recognized.
Is there something that has changed that will not allow these older cameras to work anymore or is it just specific to this model? It was on the list of compatible cameras for Final Cut 4 but 3 versions is a lot of code changes.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the replies.
The camera is plugged in direct and it is in VTR Mode. I am going to try my archived version of iMovie 2.0.1 and see if that works on my 'ol 10.3 rig. If that doesn't work then I am going to see what I can do on the Windows side of things.
Oh, I an I tried the capture preset of Non-Controlable device and that still didn't work. The camera only has a 1/8" A/V out port and FW 400 4-pin interface so no USB support. The camera came out when USB 2.0 was still a gleam in a certification board's eye.
SONY's PMB software doesn't support tape based media and VEGAS 9 will not recognize the camera on a FW400 port. The only other option is to use my HDPVR and the S-Video out and encode it manually which will be just fine.
I do actually have a SONY AVCHD HDD cam and I love it. My kid is only 6 so it is still on the list of daddy's toys that he is not allowed to play with. I plan to teach him on film and tape before he graduates to HD what not but he is a bit away from that.
Just like I won't let him play Super Mario Galaxy until he beats the original Super Mario Bros.
But I will probably keep dinking with it until I get it to work and if I find a solution I post it.

How to work on TOD files on Final Cut Pro

Hi,
I can't figure out how to work on .TOD files on Final Cut Pro. I'm using a JVC Everio HD40 camera. None of the sequence presets work. Is there a plug-in or something else I could try?
Thanks for any help!

.TOD is JVCs version of an MPEG 2 file.
Use Log and Transfer from the File menu and convert to ProRes.

Can I transfer a project from the trial version of Final Cut Pro X to the Full version

Can I transfer a project from the trial version of Final Cut Pro X to the Full version which I have now downloaded.

The trial version is named "Final Cut Pro Trial" and the App Store version is called "Final Cut Pro".
So, they can both be in the Applications folder at the same time, but only one can be open/launched at a time.
If, for some reason, your trial is older (like version 10.0.4) that your newly purchased FCPX (should be 10.0.5), and you do not click Update to your events/Projects, they will NOT show in the bought version!
Open the licensed FCPX and make sure it does update your things, in case it asks for it!

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

I can't install trial version for final cut pro x

I can't install trial version for final cut pro x on my computer..

What are you trying to achieve? Are you editing movies as a hobby? Or trying to build a business – and, if so, what kind?
iMovie is the first thing that comes to mind. Not the depth of FCPX, but it can still do some excellent work.
