Trying to find the app preference for Final Cut Pro 7

Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mavericks
running Final Cut ver7.03
Black Magic Design Intensity Pro card in PCIe
26 gigs RAM
Normally if I had an issue in Snow Leopard, I could TRASH the FCPplist and re instate my preferences from the start.
Im having some home made issues due to poor file keeping, changed a few project files destinations and the like and now wanted to trash the
FINAL CUT PREF plist file but its NOT in the Preference file. WHat did Mavericks do with the preference files??? I noticed that Mavericks did away with
the usual System Library and User Library now only having ONE Library folder with preferences. I searched ProApps and did not find a FCPplist only a
RegFinalCut Plist is this the one I want????
ANy help appreciated!!
SHould I go back and buy Mountain Lion and revert my entire system back???
HELP!
Lou

Download Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion (free):

and it will do it all for you. Your FCP preference will be restored to default the next time you launch FCP.

What are the system requirements for Final Cut Pro 7?

I can't find the system requirements for Final Cut Pro 7, I can find the system requirements for X, but like I said not 7.
I need to know the system requirements for Final Cut Pro 7, so I can buy the correct Macbook.
Is there anyway I can find out the system requirements.

Thanks
I'm somewhat inept about things like this, so I just want to make sure once more: This is in regards to Final Cut Pro 7?

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

While downloading the free trial for Final Cut Pro X my internet has dropped out many times. It does however seem to continue ok each time it reconnects. Will this affect the software when it finishes? Is this a problem? Any advice please?

This has happened to me with a few downloads without any upsets.
You should be OK.
As I recall the download is around 1.2 gig so it takes a bit of time and effort to get it to your system.

Trying to build the best system for Final Cut

IWhat screen would be best suitable to work on Final Cut Pro? 1 screen or 2? 24 or 30 inch? I'm using MacPro (SAS DRIVES).Primarily I am a musician, and my end product is for music and video clip, mostly 3d and abstract art in motion. I'd be collaborating with other artists(visual) from different corners of the planet. The end product has to be HD blu-ray .I know Apple does is not geared for Blu-Ray yet, but there are ways around it. Is there a preference to the Nividea or radeon graphic card? I was told, to my surprise, that the Radeon has a better performance benchmark.
Hence , my questions are the following,
1-What kind of screen is best to use? I'm looking @ Samsung XL30,or XL 24.Or even an Eizo, however, unless it is absolutely necessary I do not want to squander my money away, I'll get an Apple screen if that would guarantee as good a result. Apple has not updated screens for quite a while, I'm sure something is coming down the line. However, time is money!!!
2- Which will be the bets graphic card to use for HD end product?
3-How much memory is needed? I'm looking @ 8GB
4- is 2.8 duo adequate or shall we go for the 3.2GHZ?
Thank you for your kind patience and precious time.

Two monitors...and go with the Dell 2408. 24", blow the Apple monitors away, and can be had for under $700.
Graphics cards help Motion and some rendering for FCP plugins. They don't output HD. For that you need a CAPTURE CARD. AJA is the best, but Decklink isn't anything to sneeze at. All depends on what your needs are. www.aja.com, www.decklink.com
2.8Ghz is adequate...more than adequate. For FCP only, 4GB of RAM is all you need. More RAM will help with running mulitple applications, and other apps like After Effects love RAM. But 4GB is a good minimum.

What is the best camcorder for final cut pro 5.1.4

yes i know it is an older program i am having problems uploading video from certain cameras to final cut pro. i was told it was a software problem with certain cameras and i cannot find any cameras that have firewire anymore that are not really expensive. just need some ideas guys thanks

My first question would be how well 5.1 would work with SL. People have reported problems.
As far as cameras are concerned, I would guess most any tape-based camera would work and so much depends on the kind of projects you work on that I wouldn't want to start guessing at your needs.
If you want broad access to tapeless and advanced formats try to locate and purchase an upgrade disk to 6 or 7.
Good luck.

What is the creator code for final cut pro x?

Final Cut Pro 7 has creator code "KeyG" but the trial for FCP X has creator code "????" (according to the .plist). Does the full version use "KeyG" like previous ones, or a new code?
Thanks

Where can I find the 1080i25 codec for Final Cut Express?

I have found that the Sony HDR-HC3E is use the 1080i25 Codec,
Final Cut Express only provide 1080i50 and 1080i60,
So the quality of source after capture is very poor!
Is that FCE has 1080i25 codec?
Where can I find?

There's no such thing as 1080i25. The i is for interlaced and has either 50 fields or 60 fields (actually 59.97, but that's another story). There is 1080p25, but I don't believe that camera can shoot that.
Where are you looking at the playback of the captured material? QuickTime player set to high quality or somewhere else?

What is the best workflow for Final Cut Pro X across multiple computers?

I travel on a team that is in a different location every week, so all of our video editing has to be fairly moble. We have 3 macbook pros and would like to use final cut X on all of them. What would be the best workflow for us all to work on the same project and sync it across the computers? (eg, one of us editing the footage, one editing the sound, one working on visual effects?)

Where can i find My serial no. in Final Cut Pro 6

Hi
I need to find my serial no. for final cut pro. i am rebuilding a mac due to some software issues.
I have the install disks for final cut studio but i can't install it without a serial no. i have 3 other macs that are the same and we have not started to rebuild them yet so is there anyway to get the serial no from them. This is also an education version of the software as i am at a school and somewhere we have lost the documentation.
Thanks for any replies in advance

I had the same problem. My G5 crashed and when I restored everything from Time Machine, several of my more complex applications (like Final Cut Studio) would not work. I was able to order a replacement installation disk from apple for about $16 per disk (I only needed the install disk, but you could order the whole bundle if you need it). It took me a long time to find my original serial numbers so i thought i'd share the location with everyone!
The serials can be found in:
~Library/Application Support/Pro Apps/Final Cut Pro System ID
Good luck!

Help for Final Cut Pro X training book.

Hello everyone!
I've recently decided to study to get the Apple Certification for Final Cut Pro X level 1, so I bought the book "Apple Pro Training Series: Final Cut Pro X" by Diana Weynand. Due to a mistake of mine, I bought the edition released on October 2011, knowing later that there is a 2012 version and a new one coming out in just a month.
I'd like to know if I can still handle the exam studying this book released on 2011, or if I necessarily need to get the latest version coming out sooon.
Thanks in advance for your help!
- Alex

I understand. I don't feel like waiting so much time, so I need to choose.
1 - Start studying my old 2011 book since I have it here, and see if I can make it before the exam is updated (I have no idea how much time it'll take me to study the entire book though, even if I study everyday).
2 - Buy the Motion 5 book and get that certification while waiting for the new FCPX book to come out.
3 - Just waiting for the new FCPX book (which means wasting time waiting).
Thanks for your answers and patience.

Where can I find a good, free effect for Final Cut Pro of electrocution?

Where can I find a good, free effect for Final Cut Pro of electrocution? I'm using it for a taser sequence.
Thanks!
Matthew

Open Motion, look for lightningin the generators. From there, it's a question of figuring out how it works and what you need to do to make it work for your sequence. That's about as free as it gets and it will ony be as good--even if someone else did the work for you--as the amount of time you're willing to invest.
