HT4926 If I download Final Cut Pro X, can I move it or re-download it to a new machine later?

If I download FCP X, can I move it to another machine later? I'm thinking of buying a new machine, but don't want to wait until then for the software.

Yes, FCP X is completely self-contained and you can copy it onto a memory stick, SD card or hard drive and put it on any computers you own.
It's worth keeping a copy on a DVD or SD card in case you ever "lose" your normal one as it's much quicker than downloading from the AppStore.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases. Do you see Final Cut Pro X listed?
    If so, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete Final Cut Pro X. Then, go to the Mac App Store and download Final Cut Pro X for free.
    If you don't see it in Purchases, see if it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 If it doesn't work, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

  • Cannot download Final Cut Pro from the app store

    Hello,
    I cannot download Final Cut Pro from the app store.
    I says "Failed to download" and error has occurred
    What is wrong?
    is it my Macbook?

    I had a problem way back in the olden days, i.e., FCPX 10.0.2, and finally gave up and called the Apple Store using a land-line phone.
    Anyway, (this was a couple years ago), if I remember right, they passed me off to someone in the FCPX group and I got the App. However, this was not a really goo way to go because for many updates afterward, everytime I wanted to update I had to go thorugh the same ritual.
    Finally, probably around 10.0.8, things got "fixed" and since then I've been able to go direct and download it from the App Store without having to make a phone call.
    My suggestion would be to try calling the App Store. Maybe, if there is a "global problem" and they get a lot of calls, they will fix it.
    Heck, maybe write a Knowlede Base (KB) article about it.
    Disclaimer: I didn't check to see if there was one.

  • I have recently downloaded final cut pro and i'm unable to access cinema tools. I understood this would be a free addition when purchasing FCPX?

    i have recently downloaded final cut pro and i'm unable to access cinema tools. I understood this would be a free addition when purchasing FCPX?

    Thanks for responding Tom. Yes I was trying to conform frame rates, I found a few threads/youtube tutorials that all used cinema tools. Now I've spent some time in FCPX I can see where you can conform.
    Appreciate your help.

  • I downloaded Final cut pro x, how do i get hard copy disks?

    I recently downloaded Final Cut Pro X from the App store to my MacBook Pro (OS X-10.9.5). I need to move it and the projects to a different MBP in the office. Do I need the hardcopy disks in order to move the application? If so, how do I get them?

    you can redownload the application from the app store using the same ID you used to purchase it originally at no charge.

    I am trying to download Final Cut Pro, but it keeps telling me there is not enough space on my hard drive even though there is. Help?

    I realized that my laptop only has 2GB of memory. It's a MacBook Pro 13in bought in 2009. Is it true that I'm able to upgrade up to 8GB of memory. Seems like 4GB of space is a lot for a single program to be running.. A bummer I'll have to save up for more memory.

  • I'm getting an error 100 when i try to download final cut pro x

    I'm having an issue in downloading Final Cut Pro from the Mac App store.  I've seen all the "log out, then log in then stand on your head" steps to make it work but it doesn't.  I can download apps, just not Final Cut.  I've uninstalled my trial version but am still getting the error 100. I'm running a mid 2009 mac mini with a (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB, and 8 GB of memory). Any help would be appreciated.

  • Downloading Final Cut Pro

    I'm looking to download Final Cut Pro to my MacBook Pro. If I download the Final Cut Pro X (Version 10.0.9) will I have problems trying to take things that I edit on my computer and putting them on my school computer which is Final Cut Pro 7? Would I still be able to import projects?

    If you wanted to edit FCP7 projects in FCPX by importing them, you would need to use the third party application, 7toX. You export an XML from FCP7 and then use 7toX to bring it into FCPX. If you need to go the reverse route, the developers offer a similar (more expensive) app.
    Here is the developer's Web site where you can learn what translates between the two versions of  FCP and what doesn't.
    Good luck.

  • Is there a way to download Final Cut Pro 7?

    Is there a way to download Final Cut Pro 7 onto my imac if I have the serial # from a cd version?

    Unfortunately not. The current version of FCP X is 10.0.8 and available for purchase (and download) from the Mac App Store. As far as I know, none of the pro applications were ever available via download. If you have the serial number, have you tried using the install disks (or is it a PPC app problem?).

  • Will final cut pro X 10.0.8  still be available for purchase after the new final cut pro release for mavericks/new macpro in december?

    will final cut pro X 10.0.8  still be available for purchase after the new final cut pro release for mavericks/new macpro in december?

    10.0.8 is no longer available, except in the trial version. The current sale version is 10.0.9. Apple has never sold older versions of their software, only the current version. That's not going to change in the near future.

  • Error when downloading Final Cut Pro 10.1.3

    My specs
    When I first got his MacBook about a month ago, I was still using Mavericks. I bought Final Cut Pro and it downloaded just fine. I upgraded to Yosemite shortly after it became available.
    I found soon after that supplemental updates for FCP were hard to install properly (I would press the Install button, it would say Installing then go back as if nothing had happened). After consulting a few articles, I decided the best to do was to delete FCP and re-install it.
    I consulted this article, which explains how to thoroughly uninstall FCP on Mavericks Final Cut Pro X 10.1: How to remove and reinstall Final Cut Pro X - Apple Support and followed its directions. Then I restarted my computer.
    When I try to download and reinstall FCP from the Purchases section of the App Store, I watch the download bar reach 2.28 GB (full download) then receive an error message.
    This is what I'm left with:
    I've done this a few times. I'm not sure what the problem is. Any suggestions?

    This is what's in my Applications folder:
    I've seen this several times also. I'm stumped.
