Project in FCP 6.1.4 can be opened with FCP 6.0?

I have this man offering a job to finish the edit of a project edited in FCP 6.1.4 but I have 6.0, I need to know before I come back to him whether this is possible or if I will have problems? Many thanks

There is no Final Cut Pro 6.1.4 - I would imagine he is referring to FCP 5.1.4 which can be opened just fine on version 6.0. However, if you save the project and return it to him, he will be unable to open it. The way around this issue is to go to File > Export > XML.

  • Can you open an FCP 6.0 file in 5.0?

    Well, that's my question: Can you open an FCP 6.0 file in 5.0? The machine with 5.0 is NOT a Duo Core system.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Rats, I wished I would have thought about that before leaving the office. I'm really not familiar with XML files. Good info that will have to be used next time.

  • LabVIEW binary format that can be opened with Python

    I need to save data in a binary format which can be opened with Python.  I have tried the "Write Waveforms to File (1D).vi" and can open them back up in LabView, but the binary format is not published anywhere, so I cannot open them in Python.  They appear to be saving as DataLog type binary files.
    Is there another binary format which I can use that I can open in Python?
    The reason I need this is that with 16-channel DAQ at 20kHz I can only save about 30 seconds of data.  For longer periods, the task of writing to a text file consumes all available memory and cpu.

    I found a solution.  I found an open-source project called pyTDMS (google for it), and it can read tdms type files sometimes.  It was some trial and error to get my data saved in a way that pyTDMS could open the file, but in the end it works great.
    I have two digital output channels as well as 16 analog input channels, so here is how I had to save the data within LabView:
    The 16 analog input channels were saved as a 1D array of waveforms.  Then the digital output channels were made into another 1D array of waveforms.  The trick was to use the write tdms subvi twice.  Once for the analog input channels and again, on the same file, for the digital output channels.  pyTDMS opens these files just fine, and I can use the metadata to sort out what channels the data goes with in Python.

    OK, so I went and explored  what this site said about Mackeeper. But before I delete it can you tell me:
    If we don't need anti virus program and if the one that came with the machine is supposed to do the job then what does that say about the viruses that Mackeeper says it found? Were they not there and the program made them up? Or were they there and Apple didn't deal with them?
    Thanks for all feedback.
    They were not there and MacKeeper made them up. Delete it completely. I have seen it cripple people's Macs.

  • Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file within a browser that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Hi Steve,
    Sorry, I cannot post a URL to the file because it is for intenal use only.
    I noticed that the pdf file can be opened outside of IE browser if I disable the Adobe Reader add-on (active-X) in IE browser. If I enable the Reader add-on, the Reader cannot complete the file download. The progress bar goes in a half way, and stays there.
    Just FYI, the pdf file was created by Distiller 7. Do you think it is the issue of Reader add-on? Thanks.

  • HELP! Can't Open a FCP project File, "General Error 41"

    Trying to open a project for a Good guy
    over a barrel, using FCStudio /FCP 5.1 FCP opens,
    then says "General Error 41". All I need to
    do is create an SD Version DVD, But first
    I Gotta open it.
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Since this is your friend's FCP project file, check to see if he/she has version 5.1.1 or above.
    I think the project file is from a newer format.
    For some reason, the bump from FCP 5.1 to 5.1.x was big enough to require the project files to be a different format.
    If that is the case, (and if you want to take the chance on the unknown,) you can upgrade to the version your friend has (or above.)
    Make sure you really want to upgrade and are prepared for all the potential problems!

  • Just installed FCP 6 and now can't open FCP 5 projects!  HELP

    Yesterday I was trying to get some help with an FCP project that would no longer open. After a number of (very good) ideas from this and other forums did not help, I gave up and purchased the newest version of FCP Studio 2, figured I would soon anyway.
    Well, now I'm really in trouble. FCP 6 will not open my FCP 5 project. It says it will, but it just runs the striped line forever and the FCP says it is 'not responding'. I've seen this problem unresolved here on this forum from last July and I'm very very concerned and actually starting to panic. There must be a way to open my projects? If not, I'm so scr*d. Excuse my French.
    Has anyone found a fix? I've deleted all of the renders from the project. Running on Leopard with plenty of space on drives.

    I have 15 gigs space available on the hard drive. I'm afraid I'm not sure which ram you are referring to, but its an older G5 that is fully rammed out and the project I'm trying to open is 82 mb. The applestore person I spoke to assured me that my computer had what was necessary to run FCP 6, but my projects are going to get huge. There's no avoiding that, I'm afraid. They are CG and graphics and effects heavy. So I really do need to know how to cope with technical problems while working in large projects.
    I deleted the older FCP and Soundtrack software before installation, but I don't think that's a 'clean install' as I'm sure there are remnant folders lying all over the place. If there is a 'clean install' button on the installation disc I received, I somehow overlooked it. I'd be happy for any instruction on this.
    I would love to send the project to you, if you are willing to give it a go! How nice of you to offer! How would I do that?

  • SSIS Project Created in VS 2008 and opened in VS 2010 and it is conveted.How can we open with VS 2008 again?

     
    Hi ,
    Iam working on SSIS project created on VS 2008. I opened the Solution using VS 2010 and it was converted.When i tried to open it with VS 2008 it throws the error as"cannot be opened from source control because it was created by a version of Microsoft
    Visual Studio that is incompatible with this one.
    If this is the case, you may be able to open it from source control using that version of Microsoft Visual Studio, and then use Microsoft Visual Studio to open the local copy." How can i open the solution using VS 2008 instead of VS 2010. Any help is appreciated

    Thanks for the reply.how can we rollback in tfs.can you please let me know the process.

  • How can I open an FCP 7 file in FCP X?

    I have files that were originally saved in FCP 7 and they are not recognized in FCP X.  Is there a codec or file transfer that allows importing into the FCP X program?

    jcachim wrote:

    As Tom said, you can use 7toX from the App Store.
    (Go to the Apple icon at the top left of your screen and select App Store).
    7toX is very inexpensive and does a pretty good job.

  • Quicktime codec not found - can't open in FCP

    I have the FCP:Beyond the Basics book. The media files are largely HD quality. Upon trying to open them, FCP gives me the following error,"Codec not found. You may be using compressor type without the corresponding hardware card." This is followed by a "not enough memory" message.
    The source files also cannot be opened up in quicktime, so I assume it's a quicktime codec issue. My FCP and QT Pro are completely updated. Nowhere can I find where I might gain the missing codec or why it isn't present to begin with. I have reinstalled the media and am inprocess of reinstalling QT.
    My old MacBookPro (last year's model) could read all of these files, no prob.

    QT reinstall did no good.
    As a side note...this is a totally new computer. Oringinally, I installed FCP but not DVD Studio Pro. At a later date, I installed Studio Pro. I don't know if this messed with codecs or not.
    Also, I couldn't find any apple hdv codec in the qt library. There is the apple intermediate codec, though. Hmmmmmmm.

  • Can you open an FCP file in older versions?

    I have a G4 with FCP 4 HD. And I also have, or now "had" a G5 with FCP 5 something on it. The G5 logic board i think just died on me because it currently does not boot up.
    Am I able to open an FCP file in an older version?

    The G4 is currently running OS 10.3.9.
    I have an OS 10.4 installation disc but the G4 does not load it, it stops shortly after the installation process begins and I don't know why it won't install.
    I do not have the FCP 5 discs. And do not believe it would even work on OS10.3, or would it?

  • FCP 5.1 file won't open in FCP 7

    Hi.
    I am at my wits end...I have a FCP 5.1 file that I have been working on for years.
    I had to upgrade to FCP 7 for reasons I won't go into and now my FCP 5.1 file won't open.
    It is a file with footage from P2 cards. It has magic bullet/looks builder used throughout. I am not sure if that is the issue at one point ONE of the messages I got when it crashed (I got a few different ones at different times) was something about looksbuilder not working right.
    In a nutshell, it slowly starts to open and then quits. (It gets to about 33 percent open over the course of 45 minutes and then crashes.)
    The file is about half a gig and there is plenty of room on the MAC itself so it shouldn't be that the Mac is overtaxed.
    I don't know what to do.
    I tried opening various back-up copies, etc. because I thought maybe something was just corrupted. NONE of them open.
    I tried deleting render files to limit how much it was trying to process when it opened the thing.
    I even tried turning off the external drives that hold the media hoping that if it couldn't find the media it would just open the shell of a file for me and maybe I could reconnect it all later. Obviously, grasping at straws...
    I am out of options. Do I just need to wipe my computer and reinstall 5.1 from scratch? That would stink because there is another project being worked on on the computer that is a FCP 7 file.
    I tried putting a copy of FCP 5.1 back on the computer (so I have 7 and 5.1 on there now) to get it to open, but FCP 5.1 won't work either now (I get General Error 41 - whatever that means) Maybe you can't have two versions of FCP on the computer? Maybe it thinks it got opened in 7 so now it won't work in 5? even though it never fully opened? Guessing...
    I'd appreciate any and all help. All I want to do is open the 5.1 file and save it in FCP 7 and work from there.
    Thanks!
    Shari

    Hey Michael:
    Thanks for the response. I did something similar in that I opened the file on another computer that had FCP 7 and it was fine. So I saved that. Then I went to my Mac and tried to open that file and it crashed...but it said something about Looksbuilder...so I contacted them and they had me uninstall, reinstall and then fix the preference files for Looksbuilder and it now opens.
    YAY!
    Thanks again,
    Shari

  • FCP 10.8  freezing, did hook up with fcp tec, now worse .

    Having dramas, FCP 10.8 was freezing, rang help, its funny they call it that, contact said as well as having a unsupported camera, wrong, Sony nxcam is on the list. Tec said to do hookup to check system. Rang back spoke to another tec told me about proxy video so started to convert  library, converted 1hr footage no worries but now drop bow says "fcp cannot save changes to projects or events..." and closes down. restart same box appears. Any body have any ideas I live 5 hours from nearest apple store no local help, phone help only Mon to Fri.

    Open Activity Monitor and launch FCP. begin editing your project and check to see what happens in two areas of RAM; free memory and page-outs.
    As Tom mentioned, 4 GB of RAM isn't very much and it's possible it's being depleted during your editing process. But I've edited on plenty of laptops with FCP and, while they aren't necessarily snappy in everything I ask them to do, neither do I get freezes unless something is wrong (like corrupt preferences or media). And the proxy suggestion you got from the tech was more of a work-around than a solution. IMO, unless you're editing multiple streams or you have a slow drive, you should be OK with Optimized or Original.
