Scary issue with FCP shutting down after installing leopard????

I use a lacie external hard-drive 400gb and FCP HD. I recently installed leopard 10.5.5
My issue- when I try to open a project from the external hard drive after 38% it shuts down FCP. What is my prob here? I know that I also ran a update for FCP since reconnecting my apple to the internet.
I was so hoping that the installation of leopard would go smooth...not sure if it's the culprit though.
keep in mind everything worked fine before. I have installed a few widgets, apps, and downloaded a few updates and other software....nothing special

If by FCP HD you mean FCP 4.5 ... it is not supported under Leopard (aka OSX 10.5)
Time to upgrade your editing software to match the OS.

  • PowerBook G4 will not shut down after installing Leopard

    Hi - has anyone found shut down problems (or restart for that matter) after installing Leopard. I've got 30Gb of hard drive free on a Powerbook G4 (3 years old).

    No I don't.
    Looking around for answers to this one it seems it is a fairly common problem with new Leopard users. One solution (apparently from Apple) was to delete the cache folders in both the user's home folder and in the top-level system folder. I have tried that but no luck yet.

    Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
    The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
    However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
    I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
    However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
    So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.

    After having shut down after installing updates, when I restarted and tried to open a word doc, it started opening ALL the word docs and the only way I could stop it was by"force quit"  . This is REALLY annoying!!

    May be it is the Resume feature.
    System Preference > General > Number of recent items
    Uncheck the box next to      "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps".
    Best.

  • I have been having issues with my computer lagging after installing lion.

    I have been having issues with my computer lagging after installing lion. Can anyone please help me get the issue resolved? I need it in easy to follow language.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Adobe CS6 Apps Shuts Down After Installing Creative Cloud.

    I can't start my Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign CS6 anymore, it just shuts down as soon as it's done loading, without any errors. Only Bridge CS6 will start.
    I tried launching with Ctrl+Alt and Ctrl+Alt+Shift but it did not work.
    Then I tried uninstalling it (With all the preferences as well), and install it again, that did nothing - still the same issue.
    I updated windows and my gfx drivers (GeForece 332.21 - NVS4200M) after the issue started.
    I tried both the 32bit and the 64bit version.
    I have manually removed the preferences file.
    I have disabled the firewall and my AV.
    I have logged out and back in of the Creative Suite Utility.
    My hosts file is not blocking any sites.
    I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.
    I tried to open a issue on superuser but that did not help, nobody has awnsered it yet.

    Nicoar do you receive any specific error messages?  I would recommend starting with the steps listed in Error "Failed to Install" Creative Cloud Desktop application - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/failed-install-creative-cloud-desktop.html.

  • 8.1 can't shut down after installing itunes

    I recently reformatted and did a clean install of window's 8.1
    I have done all updates, both windows and drivers and the machine is very smooth and stable.
    After installing iTunes the computer will no longer shut down, it displays the logging off / shutting down screen but then just reboots.
    I have attempted numerous resolutions to no avail, i.e. disabled NIC as bootable device, disabled the hybrid boot feature & flashed and tweaked some BIOS settings.
    The computer will not even shut down when I give the command "shutdown /s /t 0"
    I only had Windows Office and iTunes installed on the computer and suspecting that iTunes may be the culprit, I uninstalled it and now the computer shuts down without any issue.
    I have since read several threads about iTunes and shutdown/restart issues with 64 bit versions of Windows although I have not found anyone else with my exact issue.
    Is anyone aware of a resolution for this?
    For now I will need to install iTunes so I can sync my phone and then uninstall so I can shut down!

    Fingers crossed there will be an update for this, I was lucky that my install so was new that there weren't very many things that could have caused it because I don't think it would have ever occurred to me that iTunes was the issue.
    I literally tried every other possibility before waking up in the middle of the night and realizing that the problem started right after I installed iTunes.
    I have had issues with Apple software in the past where I attempt to disable it from launching automatically when I boot the computer and it will simply create another entry for itself in the startup list.
    If I disable that one it makes another, and another and another.... It's like the freaking Apple hydra.
    The want me to know how much I need them! lol

  • Acrobat 9 Pro shutting down after install

    I just purchased Acrobat 9 Pro upgrade. The install goes smoothly. However, when I go to open up the program, it opens and then shuts down. I have tried reinstalling after unstalling and still have the same problems. Does anyone have any suggestions? I need to get to open several pdfs and I can't.
    Thank you!

    Do a search for others with this problem. It is being reported a lot right now and seems to be related to a MS issue. Of course, Microsoft says the vendors need to ensure the compatibility. Bill

  • Macbook randomly shuts down after installing Mountain Lion.

    I have a late 2008 Aluminum Macbook; as of last week I have installed Mountain Lion finally and I've come across a rather irritating problem: the laptop keeps randomly shutting down. I've noticed it primarily likes to go down when the battery is at 89%. I've never had battery trouble before, this happens even when the computer is not over-heating, so I'm fairly certain it's not a battery issue. After restarting the computer all the applications I was using are still open and any progression I had made on documents have been saved since the time of the crash.
    I'm really at a loss as to what's going on with this. Has anyone experienced something like this or have any suggestions as to how to fix this?

    Hi ppl again :)
    I found that screen is not disabled, it is only have a very low brightness. So I begin to wait because I saw that actually installer is still running. Finally, Mas OS was installed and after that I change brightness using keyboard (it didn't worked while installation). Now all is ok. I also tried to reboot and system loaded correctly.
    I hope this will help. Unfortunatelly Apple support was unable to help me by a phone call.
    Have a nice day!

  • I5 iMac won't complete shut down after installing Lion

    When I try to shut down my iMac it gest as far as the white screen with the spinning wheel.  It never completes the shut down.  I always have to force quit it by holding down the power key.  Any suggestions?

    I have the same issue was fine after 10.7 install but happend straight after 10.7.1.  I have reset PRAM NVRAM and reset SMC, I have also been to the genious bar where they did an erase and install of lion, it then closed down six times and has now stopped closing down again.  I can't think of any other option i'm sure that it must be something in 10.7.1 so will wait for 10.7.2 with my fingers crossed.  Any other thoughts out there?

  • IMac keep shutting down after installing OSX lion

    Hi,
    I have a mid 2010 27 inch i5 machine and after I had installed OSX Lion last month the machine randomly shut itself down while I'm using it.  At first I thought it was because of a software problem with Final Cut Pro X, since I installed that at the same time and it would shut down while I was using it.  Then it start to shut down while I'm just browsing the net.  Restarting is not a problem but a pain to loose unsafe data when it crashes.
    Does anybody else have this problem?  Again the machine was working fine before OSX Lion so I don't think it's a hardware issue.  On average it would shutdown once or twice per usage day sometime a few minutes after turning on the machine, still cool, and sometime after a while, not excessively hot.
    Appreciate any help and thank you in advance!

  • Problems shutting down after installing 10.5.3 update?

    Has anyone had any problems shutting down there IMac's after installing 10.5.3 update? I've tried shutting down twice and the image that appears when shutting down seems to go in an endless loop an doesn't shut down.

    Can you restart from the menu and hold the shift key down, until the Mac
    boots in a SafeBoot login screen; then choose Disk Utility (shortcut under
    GO in Finder window, to Utilities folder) and run 'repair disk permissions'
    then restart the computer normally...(?)
    You may also have to consider starting the computer from the OS X
    installer disc and choose from an option menu there (not to install)
    and choose to use Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, to run
    'repair disk' from there? You could also run 'repair disk permissions'
    while booted from that installer disc, but maybe you'd still have to
    repair those from the running system for best effect once it is back
    running from the hard drive's system.
    Some minor issues can happen after an update, usually just repairing
    disk permissions before installing the update, and/or running up in
    SafeBoot, can help. There are other things to try and do, if these don't
    help that much. The state of the system prior to an update is important;
    since an update can't fix anything otherwise non-related to an update.
    Maintenance issues aside, after you repair disk permissions, safeboot,
    and restart, if there still is an issue, you could try to download the Combo
    OSX 10.5.3 update file and install it over your system; and then repair
    disk permissions again after it finally restarts normally.
    Was the 10.5.3 update a smaller (delta) file or was it the Combo (large) file?
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • On my second Air, still having issues with core shut down, can I return?

    I am on my second macbook air 1.6 80 HDD. My first air I had for about 3 weeks. I brought it in to get checked out by a genius because of problems I was having watching video. They said they would replace it just this one time. Now after watching a few videos on my new air I notice that I am having the same problems with choppiness in video playback. I did the SMC reset and that did not help. I realize now that one of the cores is being shut down. I don't know if this a thermal paste issue or not. If this is going to be a problem with all the units would I be able to return my air even though it is past the 14 day period to return? I was actually interested in exchanging it for a new MBP. It a shame that the air is having these problems but I should be able to watch a simple movie downloaded from itunes without skipping. Anyone have a similar situation?

    If this is going to be a problem with all the units would I be able to return my air even though it is past the 14 day period to return?
    Can Apple Customer Relations, explain the situation and tell them you're not happy. They will work with you if you want to exchange it. They may refund your money. I got them to once.

  • Final Cut Pro 7 shuts down after installing OSX 10.8

    Recently upgraded to OSX 10.8. Initially Final Cut Pro 7 was working but then suddenly crashed. All it does is runs through scripts like its opening but then shuts down.
    I thought it was a problem with disc space so I cleared my hard drive. This did not help.
    I tried to troubleshoot but could not find the things the troubleshooter mentioned: ~/Library/Preferences; com.apple.finalcutpro.plist; Final Cut Pro User Data; /Library/Receipts; FinalCutPro.pkg.
    Tried uninstall/reinstall but I still have same problem. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks!

    Thanks... I just figured out how to do the repair disk, but unfortunately not solve my problem. So my next step is doing a clean install of my OS. I'm currently using Time Machine to backup my computer just in case I run into any issues. So I've never done this before and I'm not very computer savvy AT ALL. lol
    So I want to make sure I understand things correctly before actually doing it. Essentially I will go to Disk Utility and erase the drive? I'm guessing then restart the computer? Will I be able to open up the App store to get my OSX10.8 reinstalled?
    Thanks
