I have final cut pro 5 and it keeps asking for my serial every time i open it again. What can I do?

Everytime I open up Final Cut Pro I have to enter my name and my serial. It's annoying to have to do every try. Does anyone know what's wrong or what I can do?
I have final cut pro 6(the one that came with final cut studio 2)

Have you recently updated anything or re installed FCP.

  • I have downloaded pro and it keeps asking for a serial number.  I do not have one how do I get one sent to me

    I need my serial number for my paid subscription how do I get it

    Precast238 this is likely due to a connection error between the computer and our activation server.  Please see Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html for information on how to resolve the connection error.

  • Lightroom 5 keeps asking for a serial every time it starts after activation

    I just purchsed an upgrade serial for Lightroom 5. I enter it at the Try/Buy splash screen, it indicates that it is correct (green checkmark), I also provide the LR4 serial (autofilled, as it is still installed, green checkmarked), and hit Finish. Lightroom starts properly, but it shows the try/buy splash screen again at next launch. And this goes on forever.
    I contacted customer support, chatted with 2 agents, they were completely incompetent, and kept me waiting forever after finally understanding what my problem was.
    So now I have a purchased serial number and only 2 days left of trial, what should I do? Any help is appreciated.

  • TS1846 I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smoot all the time. Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies. What is wrong? Sudd

    I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smooth all the time.
    Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies.
    What is wrong? All the sudden.

    We need info, info, info!
    What version of FCP X?
    Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
    It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
    Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
    Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got.

  • Does CC 2014 eliminate the need to have Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor installed to access Apple ProRes 422?

    Hello:
    Just today, I was working on a Mac system that does not have any of the applications that I would have expected to need to have installed in order to do more than just decompress movie files compressed with Apple ProRes 422.
    I was expecting to have to install Final Cut Studio 3, Final Cut Pro X, Compressor 4, and/or QuickTime 7 with the QuickTime Pro key; however, none of those applications are installed and I am able to create custom QuickTime Apple Pro Res422 Sequences in Premiere Pro as well as export using Apple ProRes 422.  After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder also show all the Apple ProRes variations.
    Does CC 2014 eliminate the need to have Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor installed to access Apple ProRes 422?  Is it something happening on the OS or QuickTime level that would affect CC or CS6 in the same way?
    I've done a web search, but haven't really come up with anything other than older articles about needing to have FCP installed (and I typically work on systems with Final Cut Studio 3 installed as well as CS6, CC, or CC 2014).  If more detailed information is available, it would be great to be able to read up on it.
    The system is a 21.5-inch iMac running Mac OS X 10.8.5, QuickTime Player 10.2, and Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 (8.0.0 - I know an update is available for PrPro, but it's not my system to make that change).
    Thanks in advance,
    Warren Heaton

    Hi Emil:
    I use ProRes all the time as well, but I have Final Cut Studio on my workstations.
    I had not come across MindPower009's YouTube video.  That explains how ProRes could be showing up without FCP or Compressor.
    So, the answer to my question would be, "No, CC 2014 does not eliminate the need to have Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor installed to access Apple ProRes 422; however, if you are willing to be in violation Apple's terms of use, you can install the ProRes codecs anyway."
    Even though MindPower009's YouTube video comments claim "FREE and LEGAL", it's clear from both the Apple download page and the ProRes codecs installer that Apple expects you to own at least one of their applications.
    Thanks again for the link!
    -Warren

    Hey jamesl12995614,
    Could you please let me know if you are using subscription or bought Acrobat as a one-time purchase.
    If its a subscription, then all you need is to sign in at adobe.com using your Adobe credentials and download the software.
    Otherwise, you might refer the KB doc link mentioned below to find your serial number:

    Hope it helps.

  • Why does my keychain keep asking for my password every time I access the same web site?

    The ClamXav scan found 4 virus/trojan problems and quarantined them. Before I did thid, my keychain keeps popping up asking me if I want to save my password everytime I visit the same web site(s). Is there an issue with this? And how to I fix it?

    What were the infection names associated with those four files and where we're they found. That information is in your Scan Log if you didn't record them yourself. Search for the word "FOUND" in upper case.
    The keychain activity sounds normal as long as your browser preferences are set to save that information for AutoFill the next time you visit the site.

  • Lightroom 4 keeps asking for catalogue upgrade every time

    Hi,
    I have upgraded to LR4 from LR3, went through all the steps and created a new LR4 .lcat catalogue, but every time i re-open LR4 I get the prompt to upgrade the catalogue again as below:. I repeated the upgrade but same thing happens each time. Now, I am "choosing a different catlogue" and manually selecting the LR$ catalogue I created, I check the box to open this every time but it wont stick....
    The LR4 shortcut wont stay in the Mac dock either...
    I am using Mac Lion....have had other issues since I upgraded from Leopard so dont know if this is a unique issue?
    Any suggestions?

    Anthony,
    do you try to open the upgraded catalog(for example: catalog file is EAP_LR3_Laptop-2.lrcatalog) manually:
    Steps: navigate the EAP_LR3_Laptop-2.lrcatalog file in Finder; then double click the catalog file(alternative way:  right-click(control+click) the catalog file, prompt open with context menu, select Lightroom 4 application)

  • I downloaded Logic Pro and they are asking for a serial number

    Yes, Apple goes for free support whenever they can get it.
    Most serial problems come from having a previous version, since you haven't Bluesberry's advice seems the best option.
    There might be a "com.apple.reglogicstudio"  file in Root/Library/Preferences that should be deleted, (if it's there).

  • HT204085 Keep being asked for keychain id every time I open a new web page. How can I get this to stop?

    First I was locked out of my computer. I followed some advice on how to delete keychain folder and make a new login keychain, which worked, but now I am constatnly being asked to put in the ID. How can I make this stop?

    Open Firefox -> go to View Menu -> Page Style -> select "No Style"
    Now the pages will open in your suggested font sizes. Check and tell if its working.

  • I have Final Cut X and Adobe progras on my Imac. Can I copy those programs into a Macbook or will I have to buy them or my Macbook? Completely tech illiterate.

    I have Final Cut Pro and various Adobe programs on my Imac. I will need to get a Macbook in the next few months and need to know if I can share these programs between the 2 computers or will I have to buy them for the Macbook. I bought my Imac used on Ebay with the programs already installed on it. I do not  have any discs for the programs. I am new to computing and completely tech illiterate.
    Thanks for your help.

    You need to buy them.
    Software which came on disks can't be reinstalled without them.
    Software which was downloaded from the Mac App Store is tied to the downloader's Apple ID.

  • I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD

    I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD, my sequence lasts 1 hr and 33 minutes. What are my options? Is it better to export as a Quick Time movie or using the compressor? I'm new to the compressor just learning, please help.

    Select your sequence in the browser window, go to the File menu and choose Export Using Compressor.
    When compressor opens, choose the DVD best quality settings, 120 minutes.
    For audio and video both, choose both the m2v video and the AC3 audio. (Dolby Professional)
    Choose a destination for your files, and hit submit.
    When it's finished, import these files into your DVD SP project, and make your DVD.
    Be sure to choose the 16:9 anamorphic settings.
