Can I update my Final Cut Express 4 to the current version?

If you have questions about or are having difficulties with FCP, I'd suggest you start a new topic in the Final Cut Pro forum rather than posting in someone else's year-old thread.
Final Cut Pro is by no means "amateur". It's used by many professional editors of feature films. So either you got Final Cut Express, or you just haven't discovered how to use all the features. Again, the FCP forum can help.
Regards.

HT1338 how can I upgrade my Logic Pro 6

I bought the Logic 6 years ago, how can I upgrade this now?
robert

You'll need to buy a new copy of Logic Pro if you want anything newer. Logic 6 was discontinued eight years ago, so no updates will be available for it. Logic Pro 9 is available through the Mac App Store.

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

             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

         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later

HT1338 how can i upgrade 10.5.8

İ AM USİNG 10.5.8 ON MY PC.HOW CAN İ UPGRADE İT

You must first buy Snow Leopard for $29: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
Snow Leopard is a prerequisite for Lion since it includes the App Store. Then, purchase and install Lion from the App Store. Lion costs 99¢ more than Snow Leopard.
Make sure your system meets the requirements for Lion:
System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
The specified 2 GB minimum is barely adequate. Lion will run in 2 GB but you won't like it. 4 GB is a more realistic minimum.

HT1338 how can I upgrade to snow leopard

I'm trying to get a new HD camcorder, and it seems that my iMovie is old, so I'm trying to upgrade my Mac software. I'm still running 10.5.8 and I can't find anything anywhere about how to get Snow Leopard or Lion or Mountain Lion or whatever animal is currently the most recent version. LOL
HELPPPPPP !!!
I think I'm so outdated that I can't even download the software, and that I need to go to the Apple Store and get a disc or something????

Before you buy anything, first make sure your Mac is compatible.

HT1338 How can I upgrade to Lion? My iMac cannot support Mountain Lion but I do not see Lion in the app store anymore.

I want to upgrade my 2006imac with 3GB ram but mountain lion requires 4gb. Can I purchase mountain lion in the app store and it will install lion or will it just charge me $20 for an OS I can't use?

A 2006 iMac cannot run Mountain Lion at all. Mountain Lion only requires 2 GB of RAM, but your model has a video controller which doesn't support features required by Mountain Lion, so Mountain Lion does not support your model. The earliest iMac which can run Lion is the mid 2007 model (aluminium body). A full list of supported models is available here.
If you attempt to buy Mountain Lion in the App Store using your 2006 iMac, the sale will not proceed and you will get an error message saying you cannot purchase Mountain Lion because it is not compatible with your computer. You will not be charged.
If you are currently running Snow Leopard and want to upgrade to Lion, but didn't already purchase Lion (e.g. for use on another computer), it is apparently possible to place a special order for Lion via a telephone call to Apple Customer Support. (I say "apparently" because there have been reports that Apple told some people this was the correct solution, but early attempts to place an order were refused with Apple Support claiming they weren't selling Lion at all. I think this was a temporary situation and it should be resolved by now.) There are links to support telephone numbers here.
Apple will charge you the standard retail price for Lion (e.g. US$29.99 in the US) and supply you with a "redeem code" for the App Store. That is entered by going to the Featured category in the toolbar, and clicking Redeem under the Quick Links heading on the right side. Once your code is redeemed, Lion will be added to the list of purchases for your Apple ID, and you can download and install it.
If you had already bought Lion for use on another computer, you can re-download it from the Purchases list in App Store, but there might be a couple of catches:
1. Some people have found that Lion was added to their list of hidden purchases. You need to unhide it first. Do this by going to your Account page (under Quick Links, or "View My Account" under the Store menu in the menu bar). If you have hidden purchases, there will be a "View Hidden Purchases" link, and from there you can unhide Lion.
2. If you are running Lion and want to redownload the installer on that computer, you may need to hold down the Option key when clicking on the Purchases heading in the toolbar, to enable the download button for Lion.

You need to go through Snow Leopard(phone the Apple Store.) If you want to upgrade to Lion 10.7 but not Mountain Lion 10.8, ask them for a Lion download code at the same time.

I need to upgrade my operating system but the display won't work. How can I upgrade ?

My 2014 MacBook Pro when powered up will not actually turn on. The display is VERY faint and in fact just a different shade of shut down. It does however make the usual start up sounds, without any display, when I start it up. When in this mode the caps lock will not illuminate when depressed. Apple support has suggested that a software upgrade may be the problem. How can I upgrade without a screen ?

There is this offer of a trial version FC Pro X with 30 day runtime:
http://www.apple.com/final-cut-pro/trial/
Too bad you didn't have a complete backup that could run the previous OS X
and then you could resume using an earlier Final Cut Pro (10) or (7) since a
clone would have been a means toward that position.
http://www.apple.com/support/finalcutpro/
http://www.apple.com/support/pro-apps/
This appears to be another good reason to check out all the reasons why one
would want or need to upgrade a working OS X version, since these kinds of
events are known to happen as a direct result.
Sorry to not have an answer to this, other than try & use the Trial version...
Or see if someone at Apple sales/support can field your issue w/ an answer.
Good luck & happy computing!

How can I check to see if my version of QuickTime Pro 7.6.6 already has ProApps QuickTime Codecs installed? I also have Final Cut Pro 6. I'm asking because my computer can't seem to play ProRes 422 codec video without stuttering or skipping?

I have a fairly capable MacBook Pro (2.93 GHzIntel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory and a 1TB HD -5400 rpm, so I am hoping it's not that my computer that can't support it and it's something more simple like not have ProApps QuickTime codecs installed. Thanks in advance!

If you can view a ProRes 4-2-2 video at all, then you either have the independent ProRes422 Playback component installed or the FCP "Pro" video components installed.

Check your "~/Library/QuickTime" folder for your various "Pro" components. If in doubt that you have them all, re-run the FCP installer and it should add any missing components, apps, or utilities.
