How to update Final Cut Pro with old apple id

I realize that I can't update apps on my Mac using Yosemite that I bought or downloaded using an old apple id.  But I paid for FCP so don't want to just trash it and re-buy it.  Any suggestions?

Try getting back into your old Apple ID; if needed, use Apple’s iForgot service or contact the Account Security team. If neither work, click here and ask for assistance.

  • How to minimize Final Cut pro with one click?

    I know you can minimize windows (canvas, timeline, etc) by pressing Command+M 4 times but how to minimize Final Cut pro with one click?

    Hold down the Option key and click the Minimize button on any window, all windows in the app will minimize.
    Don't know what or if the reverse of this is - so although it's a one click minimize all windows, I believe you have to re-enlarge them one at a time.

    How to update final cut pro newer version?

    Do you have Final Cut Pro X? (To check, go to the menu bar and click Final Cut Pro > About). If you don't have version 10 (X) I don't think you can update it any way other than buying it from the Mac App Store, which requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later.
    It's currently $300 on the Mac App Store, which is an enormous drop from what it used to be.

  • How to use Final Cut Pro with multiple user accounts?

    Hi,
    I want to use Final Cut Pro on a clean user account. How do I set it up? How can I access my old FCP library and still work on it from multiple users?
    Also, I want my DropBox account to back-up my media. Any tips?

    I use external drives as backup. But I don't trust them. And in case of fire or what ever...It is of no use...
    But I agree on your comment about DropBox. It would have been the perfect solution though.
    What else is there?
    I have a 2TB HD but these projects are huge and still growing - so I have to move my projects to several external drives. So maybe I should just work directly from external drives and skip the partition of the computers main drive? I am thinking of the disadvantage of reducing the total storage of the disk.

  • How to use Final Cut pro with external hard drive?

    I have too little space on my computer so I have to use final cut pro x with an external hard drive, but whenever I have the hard drive plugged in and Final cut going, my computer goes very slow. I just upgraded to 16gb ram... but can't seem to run FCP x while an external hard drive is plugged in. FCP just freezes up and I have to force quit.

    all the files and events in final cut are still on my internal, so my internal drive is still full.... Do I have to go and delete everything off my internal?
    In addition to the excellent advice to keep your media on an external HDD, you need to make sure that your system (boot) drive has a decent amount of free space if you want to have a satisfactory editing experience. Many people recommend not going below 20% free space. That's especially so for the boot drive, but as you fill up the external, its performance will also slow. Ideally, we would have separate media and backup drives,
    You don't need to "delete everything". Rather, you first figure out what needs to be moved. You copy those files to the other drive and then verify that all the files you copied are in two locations. At that point you can delete those files from your boot drive.
    Good luck.

  • How to update Final Cut Pro 5 from 5.0.4 to 5.1.4. I'm having trouble doin

    I will appreciate any help. I'm trying to update my final cut siftware from 5.0.4 to 5.1.4, but I'm having trouble. When I tried a dialogue box appears saying that I need to use The Software Update in order to update my software. But when I go to the Software Update, there's nothing.
    Thanks;
    Ricky
    Power Mac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 is not free.
    You can find information about it here:
    http://www.apple.com/universal/crossgrade/
    If you have the full 5.0 Studio, it should be only $49US to get 5.1
    Time is running out on the deal, so don't wait if you are going to do the move.
    good luck.

  • Update Final Cut X with new Apple ID

    I have Final Cut X installed on my system from a seat a friend gave me which was installed under his account.  When I go to iTunes store to purchase it only gives me the option for updateing through his account.  How do I bypass this and purchase through my account to get up to date?  I have tried signing in through my Apple ID but keeps redirecting to his account.

    The Events and Projects are stored outside of FCPX, in folders either in your User Movies folder, or on the root of an external hard drive. Which means they are independent of the actual application. Apple designed it this way so we could do updates and upgrades without affecting our work.

  • Updating Final Cut Pro with ARD 3

    when I try to push a FCP update using ARD, it will fail with no error message returned. All the other updaters will work with no issues, including other Pro Apps updaters, like DVD Studio Pro. I've had this problem with previous FCP updaters, so i'm thinking it's something to do with how Apple packages the FCP updaters.
    Everything is up to date otherwise, OS version, ARD, etc.
    Is there a work around to this? It's really frustrating having to manually start updates on 80-odd machines.

    One workaround would be to send the following UNIX command (send it as root if the logged-in user isn't an administrator):
    softwareupdate -i -a
    That will have each workstation download and install all available updates. You can also specify what updates to install:
    softwareupdate -i <updatename>
    Hope this helps.

  • How to import MXF files to Final Cut Pro with smooth editing

    Summary: Follow this tutorial to learn how to import and edit MXF files in Final Cut Pro by converting MTS to FCP native format.
    If you have a Panasonic P2, Canon XF or Sony XDCAM series camcorder,
    you may be familiar with Material eXchange Format (MXF). Though MXF is a
    great video format to record high-definition videos, it is not easy to
    use in that they are not natively supported by most NLE systems like
    Final Cut Pro. In order to import MXF to FCP for editing, the easy workaround is to transcode MXF files to FCP compatible video formats.
    Along with some help from a top MXF Converter, it can be done. To
    help those who wanna edit MXF files in FCP without problems, here I
    share with you a simple guide on how to convert MXF files to edit in
    Final Cut Pro 6/7 or FCP X.
    First of all, downloading the App- Brorsoft MXF Converter for Mac
    Overall, the program is a professional yet easy-to-use MXF Converter
    on Mac (Mavericks included) which can not only convert XF100, Canon
    C300, XF105 and XF305, Panasonic P2 recorded MXF files, but also provide
    simple video editing functions for you. The MXF to FCP Converter not
    only can convert MXF to ProRes for FCP, but also can transcode MXF
    videos for editing in Avid MC, Adobe Premiere Pro, iMovie, FCE, etc.
    Just download it and follow the tutorial below to get the work done.
    Transcoding (P2) MXF files to ProRes for Final Cut Pro 6/7/X
    1. Import MXF files to the converter
    Launch the best MXF to FCP Converter, and then click the “add files” button to browse and import MXF videos from your camcorder or hard drive.
    2. Select FCP editable format
    Click the Format bar, and move mouse cursor to choose “Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as output format.
    Tips:
    a. Settings- click to set video
    resolution(1920×1080/1440×1080/1280×720/720×480), bitrate (from 1Mbps to
    20Mbps), frame rate (24p/30p)
    b. Editor (next to “Add” icon)- click to set deinterlace, trim, crop, add effect, attach subtitles, etc
    3. Start transcoding MXF video to FCP
    Click “Convert” button to start converting MXF files to Apple ProRes
    MOV for FCP 6/7/X under Mac OS. Once the MXF to ProRes 422 conversion
    is done, you can transfer MXF footage into Final Cut Pro (X) for editing
    smoothly on Mac with ease.

  • I can't update final cut pro

    I cant update final cut pro!  It is final ur pro 10.0.6. Please help

    Hi blackstorm,
    This is a good place to find answers to one's FCPX problems because there are a lot of helpful people here.
    As I look down the list of posts on the FCPX page here I don't see a lot of GREEN "This solved my problem" signs yet there are posts where the problem got solved. It helps everybody if there is an indication of a problem being solved because that is often where we go to first.
    If someone helps you they can be rewarded with a "Like" (that doesn't mean that they necessarily Solved the problem but that you liked their response) or even a "Star" (Really helped you and/or you really liked their response).
    Giveing people who help you an Atta-Boy and a pat on the back makes them feel good.
    So folks, if soeone helps you please don't be bashful.
    If you figured it out yourself it also helps to come back and say what you did that fixed it.
    Just because one can get frustrated doesn't mean one can't leave some good carma.

  • HT1338 Not able to update Final Cut Pro X to latest version.

    Macbook Pro 15" 2.6gHz, Retina display notebook:
    When I try to update Final Cut Pro X (version 10.0.1) from within the software, the dialogue returns that all software is up to date.  I know for a fact that FCP X is now at version 10.0.5.  Spotlight is enabled for all system and software.  How do I updage my FCP X??  Help.  Thank you.

    Thank you for your reply.  I followed your suggestion:  Checked once more in the App Store for the Update to Final Cut Pro 10.0.4 and did NOT find it.  So, I deleted FCP X version 10.0.0 to the trash bin.  I emptied the Trash Bin.  Now when I go to the App Store, the only option I can find is to purchase a new application.  There is no where to simply download the application in the App Store that I can find.   I hope I have not been led to delete my working application and can not retrieve an update!!
    What do you further suggest at this juncture?  Thank you.
