Need to reinstall final cut pro 6 but have a damaged install disc, what to do?

Trying to install fresh FCP6 but my install disc seems to be damaged. Can I get another disc?

do some googling on cleaning cd/dvd's. 
Something like this?

I bought a cd/dvd cleaner at radio shack years ago that saved my butt a number of times.  Unfortunately, I have no idea where it is.
And Nick's right (like he usually is) that making a disk image and then mounting it, is a good first step to see if the physical dvd is the problem.

  • I need to reinstall Final Cut Pro Version 10.1.1 but can't remember the Apple ID I used to install it in 2012.  What can I do?

    For several days, I've been trying to upload Final Cut Pro but keep getting this message "restoring the window layout" but nothing happens.  Not even after 2 hours.  What have I done wrong and how can I redress this problem?

    Open your Home library (not the root library), Application Support/Final Cut Pro/Layouts. Drag the folder to the trash. Npw re-launch the app.
    Just to add…your subject line doesn't seem to  agree with the content of your post. If you can't remember your Apple ID, contact Apple.

  • HT5149 Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found. Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard

    Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps.
    Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard drive at a Mac Authorized Repair.
    Short history of repair and my Final Cut Pro installation:
    1. Macbook Pro stopped working, sendt it for repair. Had the Final Cut Pro installed,
    2. Desided to try a MiniMac and recovered my backup with Time Machine, got the Final Cut Pro working.
    3. Got my Macbook Pro back from repair, did backup on this one as well. But this time only the files not the Applications.
    4. Removed the files as mentioned in HT5149. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found.
    5. When I try to install Final Cut Pro from App Store, it downloads the application as planned. But after download it won´t show in the Application folder nor in the downloads folder, nor will it start an installation prosess. If I pause the installation in App Store, I can see the Final Cut Pro icon in my Dock. (But, as mentioned, after installation it won´t show neither here or in the Applications folder).
    Any suggestions on what I should try now?
    Thanks for any reply, I´m in deep water here...

    Sounds like there is a file you're not getting.  Never do a removal manually.  It's so time consuming and a pain.  There's a very easy and fast way to do this, safely, properly.
    Get the free "Final Cut Remover" app from Digital Rebellion (dot com), use this to remove FCP X.
    Reboot the Mac.
    Download from scratch.
    If you're not seeing FCP X in your app folder, run Disk Utility to Repair all drives.
    If that doesn't help, try running Disk Warrior from Altsoft to repair the directories on all drives.

  • Uninstalling and reinstalling final cut pro x 10.0.9

    Hello all Can anyone tell me how to Uninstall and reinstall final cut pro x 10.0.9. Can I redownload final cut pro x I bought it on line. Also I'm running  Lion.
    My problelm with FCX it hangs after a few clicks. I have cleared preferences but no avail.  Help please.
    Can not update to Maverick.

    Hopefully, you can fix before having to uninstall. If you so the only way you can get 10.0.9 is to install Mountain Lion (10.8.))
    Does it hang with all projects? 
    How did you trash preferences? Use this app if you didn't earlier.

  • Reinstalling Final Cut Pro

    Final Cut Pro has been causing me problems. I suspect that it might be due to a corrupted file, as when I trashed the preferences it was still giving me trouble. So I have decided to reinstall final cut pro.
    I reinstalled Final Cut Pro once before about a year ago due to a different problem, but the installation CDs prompted me to reinstall all of Final Cut Studio which takes about 3 hours.
    So I have two questions related to that. Is it possible to just erase and reinstall only final cut pro without having to reinstall the entire studio? And my second questions is, since a corrupted file might be the problem that is causing Final Cut Pro to act buggy, would it be wiser anyway to reinstall the entire studio since all of the programs in Final Cut Studio seem to share files in common?
    Thanks.

    Also note that a clean install will most always provide the best results. A "clean install" includes backing up all data on your boot drive, then reformatting it, then re-installing the OS, followed by the applications and updates.

    I have seen similar posts but don't know whether anyone has a solution.

    If you are new to FCP X it may be that you are doing something wrong but unless you give precise details of every move we will have no idea what that may be.

  • Cannot reinstall final cut pro x free trial version

    According to the Apple web you can reinstall Final Cut Pro X free trial. Following instructyions I removed all final cut files. It did not work. I then used "ProMaintenance" to make sure all files are deleted. Same unsuccessful result: Unable to install it the second time. I get 2 options: "Buy" or "Quit". Any help appreciated. ty

    or, do you want on an Apple hosted site like this advice to circumvent DRM of Apple Products??!
    to bypass the 30-day-limit is simply illegal. whatever 'the web' says ....

  • HT5127 do I need to remove final cut pro 7 before installing final cut pro x

    do I need to remove final cut pro 7 before installing final cut pro x

    No. When you install FCP, it will move the FCS applications into a folder called Final Cut Studio.

    i need to buy final cut pro software  and i need it to support arabic writing the problem iam in germany  the  i tune here does not give you chance to choose the
    language

    If you want the menus and dialogues of the app to be in Arabic, that's not possible, there is no Arabic version of this software.
    If you just want to write Arabic language titles, etc., the language of the app is irrelevant, the input of different languages is handled by the OS, and Arabic input is always available.
    All Apple software is multilingual, no matter where you buy it. For example, the user interface for Final Cut Pro can be switched among English, Chinese, French, German, and Japanese.
