Are you talking about Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro? If this is a Final Cut Pro. problem you should be in their discussion group.

The application IDVD 4.0 has unexpectedly quit

After have made my DVD movie everything is working, except for the burning of DVD, because when I press down the Burn button suddenly iDVD 4.0 crash and says " The application iDVD has unexpected quit".
Please is anybody there who can help me?

Hi Hugo
1. Do You have upgraded QuickTime to v.7 if not don't, else downgrade to
6.5.2
2. Do You have enough free space on Your hard disk eg 20Gb recommended
3. Do You start Your projects from within iMovie with the function
Share/Export to iDVD. I don't. I use the ref. movie in the project
folder/icon and close iMovie so that only iDVD is running
4. Do You do other thing during DVD-processing. Don't.

My photoshop elements 8 no longer works...when I open an image in it, the application opens and then suddenly closes with the error message:"Adobe has detected that the application Adobe Photoshop eleents has unexpectedly quit"

Can anyone help me with the 'unexpectedly quit' error message I now get when opening an image in Photoshop elements 8?

If your product is Photoshop Elements, then you have posted in the wrong forum. Somehow your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum (probably quicker choice) or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and then move it from here to there.

The application Final Cut Express quit unexpectedly.

Dear Group
I have been receiving this error when trying to run FCE today. I have spent all day trying to run the app but to no avail.
I have completed an install after completing a complete uninstall as per the instructions on this page:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA38198?viewlocale=en_US
I have also downloaded the Preference Manager 2.1.4 to remove all my preferences and also deleted them manually.
The splash screen always gets to "loading video effects' and then issues the error with associated report. The report makes no sense to me.
I'm not sure what else to try now and it's driving me crazy.
Please help if you can.
Thanks
Craig.

Thanks Tom.
Yes it's been working fine for a year on my iMac with the update 4.0.1. The only thing I can think of is that I installed the Boinx Fotomagico upgrade for Toast users this morning. I have since uninstalled this and still have the same problem with FCE.

Hello,
Recently both Safari and iTunes frequently quit. With Safari, it will start up and open the home page, but quit when any link is clicked on. Restarting the computer has so far always corrected the problem, at least temporarily. With iTunes, it just goes part way through "Loading iTunes Library" and then quits. Once, it said it was importing iTunes Library, and then said the Library appeared to be damaged and would be called iTunes Library 2, damanged. Then it quit. So far, restarting does not help and I can't run iTunes at all.
Perhaps related, maybe not, there's 1 gigabite left on the hard drive, and often the message that the startup disc is almost full appears. I did get the list of things to safely delete from an earlier question posted, thanks, and have meant to do so, but have not yet. Also, when starting up, most of the time it chimes, but, sometimes it starts up without a chime.
I keep Software Update up to date. A recent update to iTunes deleted all our Playlists, but it had been running after that. We let our .mac run out, so, have not had Virex updated in about a year. In case it's a virus (?).
You know, when we had OS 9, there were so many problems that I was forced to get fairly good at troubleshooting and fixing things. Ever since OS X, there's almost never a problem (good), but the down side of that is, I don't know how to troubleshoot it anymore (bad).
Anyway, any suggestions are appreciated, thanks,

Hello,
Thanks. Running out of space was apparently one of the several problems I was having. I posted this summary of how things went on an earlier question, that was in the end related, all of it was related:
"Thanks for the good advice. You were right, I was down to just over 1 GB free space left, and performance had solwed down, and lots of strange problems were happening more and more frequently, in all applications. I did delete some old files, but, not a significant amount of space was generated from that. Disk Utility found problems which it said that it could not repair. I got a Western Digital external drive, dragged over stuff that I knew I wanted to protect, and attempted to Erase and Install. That was unsuccessful due to problems the installer kept encountering. So, in the end, I took the machine to Blue Ridge Mac, they opened it up and determined that both the internal hard drive, and the ram, were failing, all or in part due to lots and lots of dust and dirt accumulated. Anyway, they put in a 250 GB drive, updated the OS to 10.4.9, replaced the ram, installed Super Duper for doing backup, and restored all my old stuff in the new system. Now, it's like having a brand new computer! What a pleasure, and the people at Blue Ridge Mac were great. Super Duper is an easy way to do the backup on a schedule, too. I have a sparse image of the entire hard drive on the external drive, so, now I'm prepared for any future problems. Super Duper automatically runs Disk Utility to repair permissions, every time it backs up my hard drive."
So, now things are going good. Thanks for the help!

Final Cut Express 4 Keeps Quitting Unexpectedly?

So, on my old computer, I had Final Cut Express 4. However, that computer crashed and is no longer in use, resulting in all applications and documents from my old computer being transferred into a hard drive. I plugged in my hard drive to my new computer, and when I try to open Final Cut Express, almost immediately a small window pops up saying "The application Final Cut Express quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected." I had MANY times try to click relaunch, then reset and relaunch, but the same window appears each time. What should I do? Will my Final Cut EVER be able to work on this computer or any other? Or will I have to purchase a new one? Thanks SO much!

My suggestion:
Remove FCE withhttp:

Then reinstall from your FCE disc.

Speed changes cause Final Cut Express 2 to quit

I have a video that runs about a minute over two hours. I wanted to change the speed by adjusting the speed change feature to 102% so as to be able to fit it on a 2-hour dvd.
However, even with my dual G5 (4GB RAM) the app unexpectedly quits before it's even halfway completed rendering.
I'm on version 2.0.3. (Seems like this version of Final Cut Express has more of a problem with Tiger than it did with 10.3.9, BTW)
Any suggestions would be welcome!

A 2% speed reduction is not going to look good. There's no way you can reduce 29.97fps by 2% and produce a frame rate that's compressible with anything like correct frame interpolation. Not without serious expenditure of time, money, and learning, After Effects and ReTimer. You'd be much better off actually cutting five minutes out of your movie. I guarantee if you look hard enough at it you can do it. There's no 2:01:00:00 story that can't be told in 1:58:00:00.

Final Cut Express 4 HD quits while loading

Hello All,
I loaded a new copy of Final Cut Express 4 HD yesterday and it simply refuses to load. It installed successfully but once launched it displays the splash page for a few seconds and loads files then just stops and disappears. No error while loading is given but the following is a logged file of the problem which seems to be to do with Quick time and it trying to do two things at once with it ?
12/26/10 7:39:00 AM [0x0-0x22022].com.apple.FinalCutExpress[299] objc[299]: Class ProMetadataQTMDStorage is implemented in both /Applications/Final Cut Express.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/MIO.framework/Versions/A/MIO and /Applications/Final Cut Express.app/Contents/MacOS/Plugins/QTM Reader.bundle/Contents/MacOS/QTM Reader. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.
Does anybody know of this problem and how to fix it. I have latest QT 7.6.. have totally deleted FCE and re installed and updated the software but it still refuses to load when the application is launched.
Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks
Andrew

Hi Tom
The Mac is about 8 months old now and running 10.6.5 (it updates automatically) and was running this version when I installed the software yesterday.
I have updated all other software via the update facility but continually get this error log report. I've tried moving files out of the two directories the error log lists but FCE either refuses to do anything or just gives an error report as soon as its run if I move any of the files from the folders.
I did have QT 7 and 10 installed so deleted them both and reloaded version 7 but still no joy.

"This application adobe photoshop cs has unexpectedly quit" HELP!

Every time I try to open Photoshop CS it crashes and tells me that "This application adobe Photoshop CS has unexpectedly quit". I have used this application many times in the past but a few months ago it just stopped opening. I have tried deleting the application and preferences and re installing it several times but this has not made a difference.
Is there anything else I can try to get the application to open or am I better off buying an upgrade and which one? (I am running a Mac OS X 10.3.9 system on an eMac)

Well you can only buy one upgrade and that is CS3. the problem is it will not run on your system you need at least 10.4.8. the other problem is Apple stopped selling 10.4.x when they started shipping 10.5 and I don't believe it will work on your eMac.
Will Photoshop work in a new user?
have you run DiskWarrior?

I am trying to install Final cut pro studio V1.0.1 (2005) on OS X lion. I get a message "You can't open the application final cut studio.mpkg because power pc application are no longer supported

I am trying to install Final cut pro 5 studio V1.0.1 (2005) on OS X lion. I get a message "You can't open the application final cut studio.mpkg because power pc application are no longer supported. My computer is New. Is their a link I can go to get tech support?

You won't find any help at tech support ... other than telling you the facts: Intel processor Macs require FCP 5.1 or higher. FCP 5.0 and earlier were written for PowerPC processor Macs, long before Apple switched to using Intel processors.
And then there's the issue of the OS. OS 7 will allow FCP 7 (and sometimes even FCP 6) to work OK, but versions earlier than that have spotty operation on Lion.
Here's a brief history of full FCP versions and recommended OS compatibility:
* = requires PPC             ** = works with both PPC and Intel                          *** = require Intel
FCP 1.0*       OS 9
FCP 2.0*       OS 9
FCP 3.0*       OS 9, OS 10.1, OS 10.2
FCP 4.0*       OS 10.2, 10.3
FCP 4.5*       OS 10.3
FCP 5.0*       OS 10.3 (OS 10.4?)
FCP 5.1**     OS 10.4, 10.5
FCP 6.0**     OS 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 (OS 10.7?)
FCP 7.0***    OS 10.6, OS 10.7
FCP-X***       OS 10.6, OS 10.7
Essentially, you have a newer Intel processor Mac with a new OS and very old, incompatible software.   You might be able to find a used version of Final Cut Studio 3 on sites like ebay or craigslist as it is no longer offered by Apple as an upgrade.
Alternatively, you could purchase and download FCP-X, but it is an entirely different application, sharing virtually nothing with previous versions of FCP.

Final Cut Express 4.01 quits on startup

Hi, I just installed Final Cut Express 4, updated to 4.01 and I can't get past the startup screen. It quits immediately after. It also did this before I updated it.
I have tried trashing my preferences. I've done a thorough re-install and still... can't get past that screen. I did a full software update including firmware and then reinstalled, still, no luck.
I have plenty of RAM and free disk space, don't have any 3rd-party hardware connected, and I have the latest version of Quicktime.
The only possibility is the graphics card, but I'm pretty sure that meets the specs as well as it does say that Quartz Extreme is supported in my system profiler.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas?
Thanks very much for your help!

I know you said you trashed the preferences and reinstalled FCE but did you do it properly ...... most people don't.
They just delete the .plist and drag the FCE application to the trash.
This is a complete waste of time.
Take a look at this short troubleshooting guide:-
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24195?viewlocale=enUS&locale=enUS
I would suggest deleting the preference files first EXACTLY as described here.
If that doesn't work, COMPLETELY UNINSTALL FCE as described here and reinstall it.

The next Final Cut Express

Hello,
Will Final Cut Express be update like Final Cut Pro and Studio ?
Thk!
Bonjour,
Est-ce que Final Cut Express sera mis à jour comme Final Cut Pro et Studio ?
Merci !
iMac (Intel) Mac OS X (10.4.9)

In terms of what? FCE will eventually be updated as a program, yes, but it may be awhile and the specific upgrades that FCP6 carries over FCP5 are not really relevant to FCE. If you are talking about the other applications in the new Final Cut Studio 2, FCE has always been a standalone program and (as far as I expect) will not be shipped with the other programs of FCS2.

The application Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly

This message pops up immediately when attempting to launch FCP (version 5.0.1)
I have trashed preferences, ran disk utility. No dice!
Any ideas.
The only thing I had done recently (since last running FCP) was downloaded QT Pro. I know it shouldn't have needed to download QT Pro, but I did, since I needed the application. With that stated, any help from you gurus out there would be greatly appreciated.
BTW, how do I also update to FCP 5.0.4?
Thanx again!!

QT Pro was installed as part of the FCP5 package.
Update to 5.0.4 and remember to repair permissions BEFORE and AFTER you run the updater.
If that doesn't help, try running FCP Rescue (google it, it's free)
Use it to TRASH your preferences.
good luck.
