Issue with Final Cut Pro 7 and Maverick OS.

I wanted to know if anyone was having issues with the new OS X 10.9.4 and Final Cut Pro 7 Studio? Are there any other solution other than purchasing new editing software?

I have FCP 7 running successfully on Mavericks 10.9.4 - although I mainly use Premiere Pro/Adobe CC now.

  • Importing issues with Final Cut Pro X. Green flash and twitches while play back

    Hello, I'm having some importing issues with Final Cut Pro X and I can't find any solution whatsoever. Perhaps my importing settings are wrong?
    Anyways, I've done a lot of recordings on eye TV and HD PVR with some videos that are about 3 hours long. I exported them into H.264 files, which turns them into mpeg-4 files with AAC audio. Then I import them into final cut pro X and I notice it takes a long time for them to render the videos and I notice that there are some green screens and twitches while I play through the video.
    Here is a screenshot of the green screen that I'm talking about:

    Could it be my 2 video graphics card that is causing this kind of issues? Or is there any solution to fix this?
    In the past, I've used iMovie 09 and it worked out perfectly. However, the new iMovie 11 is terrible because it automatically optimzie my 3 hour long videos into making the importing process to (144 hours long to import). Is there any way to get iMovie 09 back or am I stuck on dealing with this Final Cut Pro X issues?

  • Is Mavericks compatible with Final Cut Pro 7 and the rest of Studio 3?

    I still use FCP 7 and limp along, but recent updates of FCP X are encouraging.  Until I'm ready to take the plunge, would someone tell me if there's been any feedback re Mavericks' compatibility with Final Cut Pro 7 and the other software in the Studio 3 Suite - especially Compressor and DVD Studio Pro?  I'd love to dl Mavericks but not if there are compatibility issues.
    Thanks ~

    Going from SL to Lion is not advised. Start clean.
    Install Lion. Run updates. Install FCS. Run updates.

  • Is my issue with Final Cut Pro or my Macbook pro?

    I'm going to try to be as thorough as possible in explaining my situation because I can't figure this problem out and it's exhausting me. I have an early 2011 macbook pro with the 2.2 ghz processor. I upgraded to 16gb of ram almost a year ago. I've been using Final Cut Pro 7 on this computer for several years now without issue and have made no setting changes that would prompt my problems. A few months ago my battery decided to stop holding a charge and now just registers 0%. Around the same time, while editing a short video my computer began behaving like it was overheating. It would crash, restart, crash and then restart again. After I did a disk and permissions repair it began to work normally again and I haven't had any more crashing issues. Around this period of time I began noticing that when my computer turns on it doesn't register the correct time and date. Given a few moments it corrects itself, but for some strange reason it was doing that every time.
    Anyway, around that time I tried to upgrade to Mavericks and experienced an issue during installation because my hard drive was apparently damaged in some way and the installation couldn't be completed. I restored my previous OS and tried to carry on as I was with the damaged hard drive for as long as I could. I was still able to do everything I needed on the computer. I could still edit videos with Final Cut. I could still browse the internet. I could still stream Netflix.
    About a month ago Final Cut stopped working. I could open the program, start a new project and import media files, but when I dragged them into the timeline, they just stuttered (audio would play but video would lag and then jump several frames then lag and jump frames). At the time I assumed this was because my hard drive finally gave up, but I was still able to do other functions like browse the internet and stream basketball games with nba league pass (granted they weren't crisp hd - on a side note, netflix was also behaving oddly. when I would browse through my list, it wouldn't stop scrolling when I moved the mouse away.) so I assumed the hard drive was my issue.
    I just replaced my hard drive with an ssd (crucial m500) and upgraded to mavericks (10.9.1) and now I am having the same issues. Netflix behaves fine. Basketball games stream fine. My battery is still dead (obviously that wasn't going to change). I get the wrong date and time for a minute, but I'm thinking that's battery related now. But Final Cut still lags to the point where I can't use it. Video clips also won't render. I thought this might be an issue with the Final Cut program so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but it still did the same thing. Assuming I hadn't correctly/completely uninstalled it, I downloaded HitFilm 2 (an editing program that had a free download promotion at the time), figuring using a different program, if i could edit video with it, then my issue is with Final Cut and not my computer. Unfortunaely, I'm having the same lagging issues with HitFilm as I was with Final Cut.
    I'm at a loss as to what the problem is. Sorry if this was a rambling post, but I wanted to get as much of the background out there as possible, should it provides anyone with a clue as to what is the issue here. Does anyone have any idea what could be at fault here? I'm stumped.

  • Exporting issues with Final Cut Pro X

    I have been working on the project for a few weeks now and it's been working fine till today, Im trying to export several clips from the same footage that was divided into seperate project files and every time I try to share it gives me an error message with a frame number. I've seen other people are having the same issue but none of their solutions worked - the frame number is different everytime, I dissabled all effects and I tried copying and pasting the sequince into a new project file but that didn't work either.

    i only can speek for my situation
    PROCESSOR 2.7GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7
    MEMORY 16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
    FLASH STORAGE 512GB Flash Storage & mavericks mit eingeschaltetem app nap
    i do not have a bad frames within my original file or project and a new user account was also not necessary,
    but deactivation of APP NAPP was at least 2 times a solution. under mavericks i could export for the first time with no error
    thanks for the tip!!

  • Final Cut Pro X and Mavericks

    I am running Lion on my iMac. I have a lot of videos on an external connected harddisk.
    I want to buy AppleTV to show my videos on my HD TV.
    My iMac from midt 2010 has a 3,3 GHz Intel Core i3 prosessor  and 4GB 133 MHz DDR3 memory.
    OS X Lion 10.7.5.
    Will Final Cut work with Mavericks or will Mountain Lion do?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Final Cut Pro X will work without any problem in your Mac. Note that the most recent Final Cut Pro X version (which is the only one available in the Mac App Store) is only compatible with OS X Mavericks, so you should run OS X Mavericks.
    The only problem you have is that your iMac is "too old" (in case you are a professional user that needs the best performance) with an "old" GPU. This means that you should not expect the same experience as on a Late 2013 iMac or the Late 2013 Mac Pro.
    Note that you do not need Final Cut Pro to watch videos, because it is an app to create videos and movies. I tell you this because you only mention that you have a lot of videos, in case you thought you need Final Cut Pro to watch them

  • Docking Issue with Final Cut Pro 6

    I have an issue while docking FCP6 to work in another app. FCP will not undock and I am having to force quit every time I dock it.

    As David already said -the question has been posted here dozens of times and no-one has a solution.
    You have Mac OS X 10.6.2 according to the info under your message. Go to System Preferences and activate Spaces -it's a much more elegant way of working.

  • How can I make Final cut pro 7 and Yosemite work?

    Hi dear Apple.
    I have this huge problem with Final cut pro 7 and Yosemite.
    I have tried to install it on a Mac book pro that has Yosemite but it doesn't work.
    I have an I mac with finalcut pro 7 working on Lion but I need to upgrade it to Yosemite to be able to use CC Adobe.
    I have a feature film worth 6,7 million SEK with Final cut pro 7 and I can't translate it to XML files to premiere cause it is in its last editing process. I get an error everytime I try. Also the last version of Fcp (X) ***** for a professional editor. So.. My only option is to finish this film in Fcp7.
    How can I use Yosemite and still be able to keep Fcp7?
    Please help me or do something about this issue soon. I bought fcp7 for 11000 SEK at the time that was quite expensive. 

    Hi Meg the dog! Thanx for answering!
    I know it was left to die 4 years ago. I just think its ****** up.. I work with documentaries and it takes quite a while to finish. I have done one for 6 years now. If I had known that Fcp7 was left to die I would never had started to edit 6 years ago...
    I did try this recommended on the forum by another user:
    Go to the app location in finder, CTRL click on the app and choose [Show Package Contents]. A folder [Contents] appears, click on it and choose [MacOS]. You'll see a Unix executable. Double click, you'll start Terminal. At the same time fcp will launch. After fcp is launched, close terminal and confirm when asked. Now fcp is up and running. Close fcp and the next time, just open fcp the normal way. DONE!
    But it doesn't work for me. I can't launch fcp7.
    I have Fcp7 Installed on my I mac and I wonder if that will effect fcp7 if I upgrade to Yosemte?
    I tryed to export XML to work on premiere and this is what happends:
    Any recommendations? I am going crazy here..

  • Is Mt. Lion compatible with Final Cut Pro 7?

    I am currently running Lion (10.7.5) on a 27" iMac 3.4 Ghz.
    Is Mt. Lion compatible with Final Cut Pro 7 and FCS 3? Will these programs still run or will they be not supported by the new OS as has been the case with past apps when a new OS is introduced?
    Thanks,
    Phil

    I have a 2gig HD for backing up my system HD . The backup HD is partitioned into 20 - 1 gig partitions. I use the Carbon Copy Cloner app to make a clone copy of the system HD. Never had a problem. If I need to I can boot from one of the clone partition or copy file from.
    (Just make sure your FPC media and video files are on a external HD (firewire for example) other than a USB 2 HD. FCP does't work properly with USB 2 drives.)

  • ATY radeon x1900 not compatible with Final Cut Pro X ???

    It looks like my ATY radeon x1900 Graphics card is not compatible with Final Cut Pro X and the new motion and compressor?
    I have a Macpro 2 x 3Ghz quad core Intel Xeon with 16gb RAM
    Any suggestion to which card I should Purchase?

    There are several threads here and abroad that mention the installer will notice and approve the ATI 5770 in older mac pros.
    I just now bought a 5770 from Apple's online store for my 2007 Mac Pro 2,1 so I'd have the compatibility if I ever decided to upgrade -- assuming at some point they'll run out of stock and not make any more.
    Keep in mind the 5770 has 1 dual link DVI and 2 mini display ports so you might need to pick up necessary adapters depending on your monitors.
    Hopefully FCPX will be usable in the near future and an upgrade will be pragmatic.
    (I sure hope they don't pull this stunt with the next Logic upgrade.)
    I may have a 1900XT for sale soon.

  • Compatibility issues with Final Cut Express and Final Cut Pro

    I'm getting ready to edit a project and I was wondering if there are any compatibility issues with Final Cut Express and Final Cut Pro. I've never used Express put I assume I would be able to make cuts, simple effects and titles. Is this correct.
    If I transfer project files from one platform to the other will i run into any issues?
    Thanks for all and any help.

    {quote}
    Although they operate in a similar fashion that are not fully compatible. You can open a FCE project in FCP, but once you've edited it in FCP you can't go back to FCE.

    I updated to yosemite os and was in the middle of a project with final cut pro 10.  Now it says final cut pro is incompatible.  How can I access my project and/or update final cut?

    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!

  • I have a Sony HVR-V1P, can i successfully capture and edit with Final Cut Pro X

      I have a Sony HVR-V1P, can i successfully capture and edit with Final Cut Pro X

    My HVR-A1U was able to capture just fine.  The only issue I had is that it has mroe frequently than FCP 7 ever did find Timecode breaks and split my clip apart.  I never had breaks before, so while it is possible I had them on this latest tape, I think X is just more picky.  I mean heck, it found three in a one minute timeframe.  My A1U worked with X without me needing to adjsut any settings form how I had it setup for 7.

  • How can i get my Imac, running OSX 10.6.8 with a 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, how can i get Final Cut Pro 4 and DVD studio pro 2 to run on it?

    I just bought an IMAC running OSX 10.6.8 (not sure what flavor that is). The processor is 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo (Late 2006). When i run Final Cut Pro 4 on it I get the following error.
                        "Configuration error
                           This software requires certain hardware or software which is missing
                                    * AGP graphics Card"
    If Final Cut Pro 4 doesn't run on my system, what version of Final Cut can I run on this as I am a filmmaker and really am comfortable with Final Cut Pro.
    On the same note I also have DVD studio Pro 2 and that just quits without any message.
    Hope any of you can be some help.
    Thank you,

    This is my first mac in a long time so i'm not sure about what this mac is as i didn't buy this from apple (ala Amazon). I'm a tad confused about the Intel/PowerPC thing. I do know the software version for sure, but the Intel/PowerPC is very confusing. I just need to find someone who would know about this question. It doesn't say G5 on this computer. Thats my biggest confusion. Help Me...
