i have a new iMac but having problems installing final cut express 4 from old macbook pro ?

FCE was discontinued nearly 3 years ago and is no longer supported.
I don't know whether it's possible to install it on Mavericks and if you do it may not perform properly.
Final Cut pro X and iMovie are the only Apple apps that are supported.

Problem installing Final Cut Studio 2 on MacBook Pro

I'm trying to install Final Cut Studio 2 on a MacBook Pro / Snow Leopard but when it comes to choosing install options Final Cut Pro is greyed out and just says skip.
I've done some research and found people with the same problem but none of the fixes I've seen have worked. I also have Logic Pro installed - which I installed first - which seems to be causing the problem. I've tried removing Logic but am still seeing the same problem.
Besides a clean install does anyone have any suggestions?

Read this article on how to install final cut pro after logic studio.

Anybody else having problems installing itunes version 11 on a MacBook Pro? Is so, how can they be resolved?

You need to tell us exactly what messages you are seeing.
You posted this in the OSX 10.4 forum but your computer profile says you are running OSX 10.6.8 Which system version you are running makes a big difference.

Problem Installing final Cut Express HD 3.5

I am presently using Final Cut Express 2.0. Trying to upgrade to Final Cut Express HD 3.5. After the installer asks for the Product Serial#, it stops installing for lack of Hard drive space (never see a Custom install window where I could install Livetype, templates, loops, etc) on a separate disk.
I cloned my OS on a new drive. Tried to re-install Final Cut Express HD, The Installer never asked for the Product Serial # as before. It only loaded the LiveType, loops, templates, etc. The Final Cut Express HD option was blanked out. It never got loaded. Need Help. What am I doing wrong.? It seems that once you try to load FCE HD once, it won't let you do it again

Thanks Tom. I did call Apple last night but they kept me waiting for so long that I gave up. I will try to call them again. But, I don't think any of the FCE HD files were loaded since that option was grayed out (could not be selected). The Re-install was on a new Hard drive and I could select only loops, templates, etc. for loading. It's like the old FCE 2 could not be upgraded at all. Could that be a possibility ? I thought one could upgrade from FCE 2 TO FCE HD. Am I wrong?
by the way, I read your book on FCE and I think it's great.

I'm having problems installing final cut pro pls who can help.

i just bought a macbook pro and i have a final cut pro, i've had it for two years now. i tried installing it to my new computer its not installing. please i want to know is it because the final cut is old or there is other reason.

Hi ...
Since you purchased Final Cut Pro two years ago, then post your question in the Final Cup Pro forum here.
This forum is for apps that have been purchased and downloaded from the App Store which has only been available since Jan 2011.

Problem Installing Final Cut Express HD v3.0

Hi,
I'v already installed FCE HD v3.0 on my iMac - no problem.
But when I try to install it on my MacBook (Intel Core Duo 2.16GHz, OS X 10.4.10) it comes back with the following error message:-
"This software requires certain hardware or software which is missing - AGP Graphics Card"
But I thought a graphics card came already installed on my MacBook, Also the MacBook confirms the following information about the graphics when I do an "about this Mac" enquiry:
Graphics:
Intel GMA 950
Chipset GMA950
Any ideas why I can't install FCE on the MacBook?
By the way I've had a video camera connected and turned on when I've tried to install (as required in the manual).
Many thanks for reading my request, and hopefully replying

Press the "esc" key.
You don't need to have a camera connected when you install.

I am having problems exporting my time lapses from quick time pro i need to save my files as photo jpegs but the standard video compression window will not open fully,

i am having problems exporting my time lapses from quick time pro i need to save my files as photo jpegs but the standard video compression window will not open fully, it just keeps my mac (old 1.6Ghz 2.5 GB sdram G5 still good for most stuff i need) spinning for ever but i can see compression type H.264 selected and the other setting but i can not select any other options as it still thinking but never opens! why is this happening how do i get round it?
my work flow is: 300 images shot on a 5d mark II medium jpegs opened in Light Room cropped to 16:9 then exported and opened in quick time i can save a .mov H264 giving me files sizes of 14 mb for a 16 second time lapse, mp4 9 mb. the only way i can get large files is saving as a self contained movie then i get 300mb files.
i need to save my files 1920 x 1080 photo jpeg codec as i want HD quality.
i am sure there is a simple way round this?
thanks guys!

It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.
How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?

As Niel states you can use your current iWorks.
If you want the latest version you will need to purchase the componets in the Mac App Store.

I have inherited an ICloud account from one of my employers when transferring from old MacBook Pro to new MacMini and need to separate from this, presumably by setting up a new ICloud account. How do I do this ?

I have inherited an ICloud account from one of my employers when transferring from old MacBook Pro (which belonged to them) to new MacMini and need to separate from this, presumably by setting up a new ICloud account. How do I do this ? And is there any danger, in doing so, that I might delete any of her ICloud information ?

Sign out in System Preferences>iCloud. This will remove any synced data such as Calendars, emails and Contacts from your Mac, but will have no effect on the data on the server - so that other devices logged into it will continue to see the data.

Can you explain when using keywords and addding them to various clips pressing ctrl and a number eg. 1 or 2 it simply closes down FCPX. Just to the dock as would th yellow -sign. As you gather I am new to this program having only used Final Cut Express 4

Re: Why don't my arrows on the time line operate and allow me to move to the start and end of the timeline. Iam using the trial version

Check System Preferences. I think Control-1 is used by something in the OS now. Switch it off. It's a major p[ain the way the OS is taking over more and more of the keyboard, allowing less options for application use.

During an aborted migration attempt from old Macbook Pro to new machine running Yosemite my recently installed apps and settings have been placed in a deleted user folder. How do I reinstate them?

I suggest starting over. Boot into Recovery mode, wipe the HD, reinstall the OS, and, on first boot, use the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide to do the migration.'

Just installed Final Cut Express 4 but doesn't open

Hey I'm a dummy but....Just installed Final Cut Express 4 but doesn't open tells me I don't have the AGP graphics card,my ATI Radeon X1600?Do some imac 1.83 Intel Core Duo come with out it?I'm freek'n stuck!!Any help would be Greatly appreciated!!

Al's suggestion should solve the problem.
However, if you get fed up with hitting the esc key every time you open FCE you could try this permanent cure .......... it's nowhere near as frightening as it sounds and only takes a minute !
For a permanent cure edit the info.plist like this:-
1. Right click on the FCE icon (in Applications NOT the Dock) and select "Show Package Contents".
2. Open the "Contents" folder and double click the "info .plist". It should open automatically in TextEdit - if it doesn't, choose TextEdit manually.
3. Around 15 or so lines down you will see AGP. Delete it and put in PCI.
4. Close the window and when asked if you want to save the changes, say yes.

Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro?

Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.7.5?

Thanks for your help here is what I did so far!
I have uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it, I've tried restarting my browser, then my MacBook Pro without any success!
When I click on the Apple in the upper left hand corner and open System Preferences I can see Adobe Flash Player on the bottom under the Other section.
If I open Adobe up and check the version it tells me that I have the most recent version!
I even uninstalled Adobe and installed the newest Beta version, but Adobe is still not working! If I check for the latest version it tells me that I do have the latest beta version, but it still doesn't work!
If the person who made the video used any other video player it works!
Their player, plays the video without a problem!

Best way to transfer files from old Macbook Pro to new one?

I just got a new Macbook Pro from Apple...YEEEEAAAHHHH!
So....
What's the best way to transfer files from old Macbook Pro to new one? I know Migration assistant, but is there a recommended way? I don't want to put do a system restore or transfer everything from the old laptop, but I do want to move important things like photos, music, documents and such over. Any suggestions on best way to do this?
Another question, perhaps subquestion. If I have, say, an older version of iPhoto but a newer version of one on my new Macbook Pro, will it still transfer photos no problem?
Just looking for hints from the experts so this puppy is set up in the best way possible.

Just one comment on this:
‘If I have, say, an older version of iPhoto but a newer version of one on my new Macbook Pro, will it still transfer photos no problem?’
the problems are ALWAYS in the reverse way, when you have the newest (or a newer) version of a given app, and wish to transfer its library to an older version.
Otherwise, see the link to Pondini.
I have been using Martin Jahn’s iBackup, with which I have become accustomed and works fine. It also makes daily backups. Its advantage over other apps is that you may add whatever you wish to save, beside its default settings (which you may delete or cancel, of course, even if not recommended); it also has a friendly interface and easily customizable. Of course, this is a personal view, you may try other methods as well, or other backup apps. All are good if you are satisfied and correspond to your needs.
