Older versions of FCP (HD 4.5) compatible with the new 5.1 ?-- HELP

Hello,
I am a beginning video production student just starting out with FCP. I have been editing a commercial on my schools 5.1 version, but have FCP HD 4.5 on my PowerBook G4.
I need to know how to handle working with the two versions so that they can open eachothers projects...... or if thats even possible.
1. Is there a way to save a project in 5.1, so that itll open in the HD 4.5 version I have?
2. I exported the individual video clips from the timeline of the 5.1 v. into quicktime files- and those will import into my 4.5 v.---- But the original quicktime .MOV files I have will not import into my 4.5 v.
- I'm sure theres gotta be right ways to save, import/export- but I am so lost, and really need help.
Is the HD 4.5 version even worthy? I cant find much on it-

  • What is the earliest version of FCPS that will be compatible with the i-3 processor

    What is the earliest version of FCPS that will be compatible with the i-3 processor? I am looking for a used version and doesn't matter which one.

    FCP 5.1 was the first version compatible with Intel processor Macs.  After that came version 6 and the current version is 7.

  • Cannot read version 4 fcp project and associated files with the new 5.1.2

    I cannot read my fcp 4 version projects and associated files with the new 5.1.2 fcp.
    Please help!

    I bought the Final Cut 5 studio to use for my company but I have project files from version 4, which I would like to update. My G5 is running Tiger and Final Cut recognizes the old files as Final Cut Documents (the media is already on the G5) but will not open them or their associated quicktime files. I have no problem loading version4 to export the Masters but I would like to be able to upgrade the project files so that I can use them in my addition Studio Pro applications and touch them up in Shake. Also, I don't want to go and find FCP4 on the internet because it may have other problems.
    What do you suggest?
    Can FCP4 files be updated to version 5.1.2?
    Can I get a back dated version of FCP4 through Apple?
    Thanks for your time.

  • Can I get an older version of an app that is compatible with my IOS?

    Can I get an older version of an app that is compatible with my IOS? I understand that time marches on, and I'll miss out on newer apps and features, but there really should be a way to get the latest app that is available for your specific IOS. I think this is the one thing that makes me seriously consider dropping iPhone for Android/Google/Windows. 

    Thanks for the quick reply Niel! Well, I followed your instructions, and since it is an Apple App (Podcasts), they don't allow the older version evidently. It just grinds my gears. I get that it is no longer supported, and it may not work with newer podcasts, but let me deal with it not working on everything. As it is, it won't play anything since I can't download it! Thanks again.

  • Bootcamp support drivers "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running"

    Hi,
    I've searched everywhere I can think of for a solution to this problem with no success. I see other people have reported similar issues and these have not yet been resolved.
    I have installed Windows 7 32 bit on a new Mac Mini under Bootcamp. When I go to install the Bootcamp drivers in Windows, I get the message "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running". 
    Other people have reported this issue when trying to install 3rd party software on a 64 bit version of windows but I'm simply trying to install the Bootcamp drivers on a 32 bit version of Windows.
    Is it possible the Mac Mini needs a 64 bit version of Windows installed under Bootcamp? I haven't seen this requirement mentioned anywhere.
    Appreciated all and any help that can be offered.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's because the Late 2012 iMac and Mac mini only supports the 64-bit Windows 7 version, so the drivers you downloaded are designed to work with the 64-bit version and you can't install them on a 32-bit version. Install the 64-bit Windows 7 on your computer

  • "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running.[...]".What can I do?

    I must run a 32-bit programe  on a windows 64-bit operating sistem, and i receive this message:"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running.[...]". I tried with Troubleshoot compatibility - didn't
    work. I tried set to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP in file properties window and it didn't work.  What can I do more? I
    must run this programe to acces my database.

    Hello qqnicol,
    What program do you run?
    Please contact the software provider to confirm if this 32-bit program can run in 64-bit Windows.
    As some programs can only run in specific version of Windows, please download the right version of software.
    Most programs designed for the 32-bit version of Windows will work on the 64-bit version of Windows. Notable exceptions are many antivirus programs.
    Device drivers designed for the 32-bit version of Windows don't work on computers running a 64-bit version of Windows too.

  • Windows desktop application -- version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running

    I am developing on 64-bit Windows7 Enterprise using VisualStudio 2013.  I created a new Windows desktop VB.net application and just created a release build of the default solution/project targeting "Any CPU".  I provided the EXE to a
    colleague who is also running 64-bit Windows7 Enterprise but receives the following error...
    "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running.  Check your computer's system information to see
    whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."
    I changed the build configuration to create a "x86" build but my colleague received the same error.  Any ideas why this would be happening (I checked and my colleague has .Net4 Framework installed as well)?  Thank you for your time and
    response!

    Hi sunisha,
    According to your description, you'd like to run the application in your colleague's computer.
    I provided the EXE to a colleague who is also running 64-bit Windows7 Enterprise but receives the following error...
    If you want to test the application, you could provide the whole Debug folder to colleague instead of the single exe.
    "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."
    Check if the collegue's computer is running 64-bit windows:
    Enter Control Panel, click on System and Security.
    Under this, you can view the system type. This will describe whether you have 32-bit or 64-bit.
    You can also try compatiblity mode.
    If the program is not compatible, then you may try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
    Use the following steps:
    1)   Right click on the Program
    2)   Click on Properties
    3)   Click on Compatibility tab
    4)   Select Run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or whatever operating system the program was running successfully.
    And if you still have questions, I suggest you deploy the application to the Local Network with clickOnce, then your collegue can install the application from the network.
    #ClickOnce deployment
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/t71a733d(VS.80).aspx
    And also, you could recreate a new small application in your computer in Any CPU, then check if this small new application can work well in your colleague's computer. This can judge if the problem is caused by your application.
    If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.

  • Will all (both Apple proprietary and 3rd party) accesories compatible with iPad2 also be compatible with the new iPad (version 3)?

    I have just pre-ordered my first iPad, and luckily my timing was perfect as I have been able to grab a first round new iPad (version 3). That said, while I wait for it to ship (due 3rd of April), I wanted to do some research and begin to buy the accesories I will want to go along with it.
    Are all accessories currently available on the market and thus compatible with the iPad 2 also going to be compatible with the new iPad (version 3)? This question goes for both Apple proprietary accessories (i.e. Airport Express, Camera connector kit, Smart Cover, etc.) and 3rd party (non-Apple iPad covers / stands, etc.)?
    Many thanks in adavnce.

    There are two different Zagg keyboards. One of them, the Zagg Folio, is a combination keyboard and case that completely surrounds the iPad, front and back. The Zagg Folio (for iPad 2) doesn't fit the new iPad since the new iPad is thicker.
    The other Zagg keyboard is the "Logitech Keyboard Case by Zagg". This keyboard grips and surrounds the front of the iPad, but doesn't go around the back. Since the new iPad has the same frontal dimensions, it's compatible with iPad 2 versions of this keyboard.

    I recently upgraded to Yosemite. Yesterday when I opened up the iPhoto (which I have it in my external drive due to the size of file) I get the message that it is not compatible with the new system(or something like that) and ask me to upgrade so I did. Then another message pops ups and asked for rebuilding the Thumbnails. So I clicked rebuild. Next it asked me to do one of three things(I can't remember all of them) so I chose the last one which is to download a photo to iPhoto. Now I only have that photo I downloaded in iPhoto file but not the rest of my pictures. The iPhoto library which is stored in my EHD shows it has 349GB but it only show one thumbnail of the last picture I downloaded after the rebuild process. What can I do to recover the rest of the file?
    Thanks for your help.

    Yes/No/perhaps. All depends on the specifics of the system and its configuration. most stuff should work, but of course there always could be compatibility issues.

  • Is Firefox 5 compatible with the new upgrade to OS 10.6.8? I'm having problems

    Since I upgraded to Firefox 5.0, and upgraded to 10.6.8 (Mac) my computer is not responding as it previously did. I keep getting "box messages" when I scroll and when I move to the tool bar in Firefox, it switches without my direction.
    I contacted Apple, no problems with the upgrade. Is Firefox compatible with the new upgrade??? Even my printer didn't respond.

    Hey William Dofflemyer,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you would like to move some photos in your iPhoto library to free up space. The following article may help you with that:
