How to transfer fcp7 to new mac pro mavericks

OSX 10.9.5
2014 Mac Pro (trash can)
2.7 GHz 12 Core Intel Xeon E5
32GB 1867 MHz DDR3
Hey everyone, I need some help.
I would like to transfer FCP7 to my recently purchased Mac Pro.
I'm in the process of upgrading, but first need FCP7 to work before making all the final changes.
I would attempt a clean install but the original FCS, along with the FCP7 upgrade discs are currently lost ever since I moved from NY TO MN.
I migrated FCP7 directly from my 2010 Mac Pro into the new Mac Pro applications folder. But immedialetly after trying to launch FCP7 I get "Final Cut Pro cannot be opened because of a problem."
Did I miss any hidden files or folders located elsewhere in the CPU?
I would like to run FCP7 on the new Mac Pro (2014) from my previously purchased copy currently located on my older Mac Pro (2010) which is also running Mavericks.
I hope I made enough sense to you all, enough to get pointed in the right direction.
Peace and thank you,
B-NYC

How did you do this? Without the original install discs, your only option it to use the Migration Assistant.app.
If you just copied the application, it will not work.
If you did get if from your older computer via the Migration Assistant.app, then trash your FCP preferences.
You can download (free) Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion and it will do all the work for you:

Your FCP preferences will be reset to default settings the next time you launch FCP.

  • How can I configure my new Mac Pro to output the timeline via HDMI

    How can I configure my new Mac Pro to output the timeline in FCP 7 (yes, I have X, but I'm using 7 right now). I have two monitors running from TB2, but want to have the third for a client monitor.
    If I use all three via TB2, it's literally three monitors, and I want to edit on my CineDisplay. I only want the client to see the timeline video on the third monitor. When I hook up HDMI I get no signal, in fact, I can't have the HDMI cable hooked up for TB2 to work with the third.
    Thanks,

    If you use all ThunderBolt displays, or stick with DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort (free conversion between the two with only a cheap cable) you can have up to six displays.
    If you attach "legacy" displays with "any-old adapter", you can have up to two, and the built-in HDMI counts as one if you use it.
    Any more requires ACTIVE Adapters.
    The US$100 Apple ACTIVE Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter works in every case, even displays over 1920 wide.
    StarTech and Accell make US$35 ACTIVE adpters that work for displays up to 1920 wide.

  • How to copy apps to new Mac Pro?

    Is there an easy way to copy the applications from my G4 to my new Mac Pro? It would be nice if at least some of them can be moved over along with the user licenses.

    If they are Universal Binary and can be just dragged to /Applications you are probably fine, but if they use an installer, then only migrate your home account folder and install fresh. Good to collect and keep all your software downloads and updates in one place.
    PPC and Intel are different operating systems and support libraries, at least with Tiger, and can cause anything from sluggish weird performance to downright nasty.

  • How Will iMovie Run on New Mac Pro (late 2013)?

    Is iMovie v10 ever likely to be upgraded to support the multiple-cores in the new Mac Pro (late 2013) the way Final Cut Pro X does? If not, will a fast iMac run iMovie about as well as the new Mac Pro (late 2013)?

    No one here knows what Apples plans are for iMovie?
    I think it's fair to say everything will run faster on the new MacPro but I don't think it's a reason by itself to upgrade hardware.
    iMovie 10.0.9 runs just fine on my 2010 iMac.

  • How to transfer data from NEW mac to OLD?

    I want my Macbook Pro, gotten around early 2009 (runs on Leopard), to have the same things on it that my newer iMac has (runs on Snow Leopard). However, I'm running into a problem when I try to do that.
    A few months ago I had no problem transferring ALL my data, accounts, files, applications, etc, from my new Mac to my old Macbook. I had erased the disk on my Macbook and then somehow managed to transfer all my data from the new Mac to the my old Macbook from a Time Machine backup.
    Now, however, when I try to transfer it now through Migration Assistant or the startup disk, my Macbook tells me that I can't because my Macbook runs on an operating system older than my new Mac. It will not allow me to.
    I don't remember how I did it last time. I remember getting the same error message, but finding a way to fix it... but I forgot completely! Last time, using the same Macs, and the same situation, I was able to transfer my data from the new Mac to the old one using Migration Assistant and Time Machine. Now it won't let me.
    Is there any way to do this?
    Please, advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

    I know... but there has to be a way to do it without needing to upgrade. I was able to do it before, but don't remember how. So I know there's a way.... I wish I knew it though...
    It's been awhile since I messed with this, but try opening Migration Assistant on the newer Mac.

  • How many VGA monitors a new Mac Pro Support?

    hello! sorry for bad english! writing through a translator. tell me how many monitors can be connected to a mac pro 2013-14. examined the information - say, you can connect two monitors via passive dvi adapter and four through the vga adapter or six monitors through the vga adapter. Please help, since you can not buy 6 monitors display port or thunderbolt. already have 6 monitors dvi/vga, but I'm afraid to buy a mac pro, because monitors can not connect. Thank you friends!

    I want to connect 6 vga or dvi monitors.
    I'm sorry, translation via google translate
    Mac pro ordered, paid money. Now I worry that I won't be able to connect 6 vga monitors. I already have 6 vga of monitors, don't want to buy 6 thunderbolt monitors
    thanks!!!
    PS VGA adopters are all active. It means mac pro supports six vga monitors?

  • How to transfer iTunes to new mac while keeping library on external drive?

    I have a new iMac (running 10.4.11). Old mac is a G4 powerbook, which is synched to my ipods and iphone. My iTunes library is on an external hard drive. How do I get the new computer to "own" the iTunes account and media library so it will synch with my devices and not tell me I don't own the music? Thanks!

    Have a look here (click the text after this arrow -> iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    I don't understand what you're suggesting at all.
    I'm suggesting you change your signature line to reflect your current computer and current OS so people know what to help with.
    Change what under "my settings"
    Your computer model and your OS version. You list two different computers and 2 different OS versions.
    and and where is "my settings"?
    As stated above, it is here -> My Settings or at the top right side of this window.

  • HT1338 I have just bought a new Mac Pro after my old one died after nearly 10 years. I have most of my music backed up on CDs, but when i load them into iTunes they are only identified as Track 1, 2, etc. Can I transfer from my iPod and how?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • HT1727 i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.

  • How do I stop my new mac book pro from opening all my old emails and flasing them in the top right corner?

    How do I stop my new Mac book Pro from opening all my old emails and flashing them in the upper right.

    Copy the entire iTunes folder within the music folder on your old Mac to the music folder on your new Mac.
    You can use an external hard disc for the transfer, or you can connect the computers together using Firewire Target Disc Mode as explained here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661

  • How to use hard drives with the new mac pro

    A few quick questions about upgrading to new Mac pro desktop
    I currently have 4 internal hard drives for a total of 8T
    What will the solution be to add storage to the new desktop?
    I assume it will be thunderbolt options?
    Lets say I wanted at least 8TB of storage to add to the computer
    and attached the storage via thunderbolt will it be as fast data throughput
    as the harddrives in my current computer hooked up to the external bus?
    I also have a pci card running my audio plugins for Universal Audio how will those pci
    cards work on the new mac pro?

    Also will the transfer rate with the pegas be as fast as if the drives were connected to the bus in the machines like the old mac pro?
    To answer that, think of this as a Bottleneck problem. The overall performance is as slow as the slowest device.
    At this writing typical rotating drives can produce a momentary burst at 125 MBytes/sec or 1,000 Mbits/sec. Only FireWire 800 is starting to be a limit for that -- EVERYTHING else is faster. Thunderbolt-1 is 10,000 Mbits/sec -- ten times faster.
    The best SSD can produce a burst at maybe 800 MBytes/sec or 6,400 Mbits/sec. There is not a big speed difference in an SSD RAID, because the latency is already low. But the 10,000 Mbits/sec of ThunderBolt-1 is still plenty fast enough for that as well.
    If ThunderBolt-2 devices really can run a single data stream at 20,000 Mbits/sec, that does not make ANYTHING faster -- it just moves the ceiling (potential bottleneck) a bit farther away.

  • New mac pro recognises usb 2.0 as 1.0 - super slow data transfer!

    updated my new mac pro 3.5 GHz 6-core intel xeon E5 to mac OS 10.9.2 today.
    all periphals (standalone hubs, hubs in monitors, harddisks) are now recognised not as is (USB 2.0) but as USB 1.0 (ie transfer rate 12 Mbit/s), no matter whether they are plugged into a port of the mac pro directly or thru a hub. i do not get anything done anymore!
    any advice how to get back to USB 2.0?
    thank you!

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • My new Mac Pro 2.66..how sweet it is!

    So I received my new Mac Pro and, while in the process of setting things up, I have to say this is one gorgeous machine having opted for the ATI 4870 card and 6 GBs of RAM. Compared to my old G5 it is silent; the only fan noise occurs upon booting and then... *cricket chirps*
    I salvaged the G5's stock hard drive (160Gb, SATA 1.5) and another 500GB Maxtor (SATA 3.0) and now have 3 HDDs. Suggestions how to use the 2 extra drives?
    The only minor annoyances are a click that sounds every so often (the same click you hear when you put your mac to sleep) and the space bar on the wired alu. KB which makes a loose "clackity" sound when pressed. I may ask for an exchange.
    Otherwise I am one happy camper with my new Mac Pro!!!!
    Frank

    Hi Frank
    am Just doing the same as you- setting up a new 2.66 after retiring my G5!
    It's a fantastic machine and so nicely designed inside
    I am not experiencing any unwanted clicks- from the machine, my space bar is a bit nosier than the other keys -but hadn't noticed it until you mentioned it.
    As for what to use the other drives for- i'd put any media you use on them- video, audio, photo libraries & sound loops etc. depend on what you use the computer for- keeping your system drive just for OS and Applications.
    I'm a happy camper too!

  • My brand new mac pro always had Internet connection issues at school. WHY is that? I see the school's Internet working perfectly fine on other PC's, but there is never a day where my mac doesn't have Internet connection issues at school. How do I fix it?

    I got my mac pro in the middle of August. School started the week after. Internet was working perfectly fine at home. But at school, I never had a good connection. Sometimes on the good days I get a connection when I'm sitting at the exact spot in class I always sit at. It's ridiculous and it's frustrating. I invested my money into this laptop and I'm beginning to regret it. I thought it was the school's Internet, but I don't see Internet issues with other PC users. It's most frustrating on registration days and I'm trying to register for my classes before it gets taken, but again... Internet connection issues. It's random. Majority of the time, it doesn't work at all. I've done Network Diagnosis and turning WiFi off then turning it on again. I've done everything I could. I put my money on this laptop and it was a lot of money. I could have bought an 800 dollars laptop and I would have Internet connection anywhere on campus. So, I don't want to continue everyday to regret on buying this laptop every time I try to connect to the Internet at school or Starbucks or anywhere else. How do I fix this? What's the problem ?
    At school, I heard this guy had a problem with Internet connections too and he owned a new mac book pro. He said something like Apple messed up on something, but he fixed it. If I knew mac book pro's had these issues I wouldn't have bought it in the first place. It's freezing on me every other day. It's ridiculous. But what concerns me the most is the Internet connection. So someone please tell me what can I do next to prevent the problem? Am I doing something wrong maybe?

    Hi Kevin,
    I'm using an XLR input mic which is connected to the phantom power enabled XLR mic socket on a USB M-Audio M-Track. The M-Track is connected by USB to the Mac Pro - so effectively I've got an M-Audio USB soundcard with a mic input.  I've also tried a microphone that is a straight XLR to USB cable (guessing with some soundcard chip buried in the usb plug) but that also yields the same effect of bad latency, intermittent quality, stuttering and repeating and echoing (without the speakers on during record so its not feedback).
    The mic works absolutely fine with other recording applications I have on the mac at the moment - albeit non-adobe ones (tested it on the EasyAudioRecorder - and it lives up to its name. it's easy)
    I will try with Audition and report back, but sitting here right now I can imagine it would work fine with audition too - it just seems to be the way premiere is set up for recording into the timeline is a bit sketchy.  I'm willing to accept it might well be a quirk with the new Mac Pro trashcan - I'm not weighting all the woes on premiere.
    Any thoughts or am I out of luck to sit with my fingers crossed for a fix in the next round of updates?
    Nathan.
