Two Copies Of Final Cut Pro

Can I install two copies of final cut pro? For editing the old project files, without converting them to FCP6

Possibly, but I would recommend having alternate startup drives for each version of fcp.

    You don't. You can install the same copy of FCP-7 on two macs (as long as you own both macs). You can't operate both copies at the same time.

  • Is there a way to roll ab roll and cut between the two as in final cut pro which has multi clip

    Is there a way to AB roll as in Final Cut Pro which has multi cut

    There is another workaround that enables you to see 2, 3 or 4 videos simultaneously and make decisions about where to cut from one to another.  It's not the exact same thing as FCP's multiclip feature but it does work.
    Download & install Piero's QuarterPIP filter.  Place each of your videos on a separate track (up to 4).  Apply the QuarterPIP filter to each, placing each video on a separate quadrant of the canvas.  (You may have to sync their placement on the track if there is common audio among them.)
    You can then play the timeline and see all 4 videos simultaneously in the Canvas.  You can then place markers and make cuts & deleted unwanted portions of selected tracks as desired.  The limitation is that you can't just cut from one track to another on the fly as you can in FCP - you have to actually cut & delete the portions of the video tracks that you don't want in the final video.
    When you are done you can remove the QuarterPIP filters and will be left with one resulting video.

  • Can I have two versions of Final Cut Pro installed on my Mac

    It is posible to have Final Cut Pro 7 & FCP X installed on my Mac Pro.. currently I'm using FCP 7,

    Yes.
    Final Cut Pro 7 and the other FCS apps will be moved to a subfolder in your Applications directory.

  • Mac App store and Final Cut Pro X can a single Apple account purchase 3 separate copies of Final Cut X? Also how do we allow our editors to update FCPX, but not have access to the credit card?

    I work for a medium sized compand 400+ people. We have a 3 person video crew. How does our company start an Apple account that will allow us to purchase three separate copies of Final Cut Pro X, but not allow us access Credit Card info, but still allows us to update purchased software? Surely Apple cators to small businesses needing multiple lisences. I appreciate any feedback, thanks!

    I would assume that since your company has a video department, it probably also has an IT department.   Have them set up the needed account(s) and download from the App Store for you.
    You should also contact Apple about a mulit-seat licensing arrangement, but those usually involve 25 seats or more.
    Apple doesn't really cater to small businesses ... or any business group in particular.  They primarily cater to the consumer market.

  • Final Cut Pro X effects problem

    Hi all
    I have two computers with Final Cut Pro X 10.0.9, on these two computers the effects will not show when I skim over them in the thumbnails, and if I apply them to the clip, they don't show at all. If I try applying one of the generated texts FCP crashes, and I have to quit the programme.
    The problem seems to be the same as described here, but the solution does not work.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4971527?tstart=0
    On one of the computers that do not work, I do not have the XAVC/XDCAM Plug-in by Sony (PDZK-LT2) installed. The other mac has the plug-in installed, but deleting it, does not solve the problem.
    Is there anybody out there, who could have another solution to the problem?
    Thank you for your help.
    best
    Mathilde

    The FCP X sound effects were an additional external download and were not kept in the FCP X application.
    You probably need to re-download them.
    In the FCP menu at the top left of your screen you will see the download link.

  • 2012 mac mini i7 or imac i5 for video editing with final cut pro 7 ?

    Hello,
    I am totally new to mac world.
    I read some posts but not clear to me if better a mac mini 2012 i7 2,3Ghz and video card  Intel HD Graphics 4000 or an imac 2012 i5  2,7GHz and NVIDIA GeForce
    GT 640M   with 512MB of GDDR5 memory.
    The software is final cut studio 3 from final cut pro 7.
    So better more performance in the l cpu or  in the videocard?
    Thank you
    Gianni

    If the Mac Mini has not had its hardware changed since the release of Mountain Lion, July 25, 2012, Final Cut Pro 7 is reported as not working in some situations under Mountain Lion.  If it has been hardware changed by Apple on or after July 25, 2012, you won't be able to run Lion, and may not be able to run all Final Cut Pro 7's features.  The two entries for Final Cut Pro 7:
    http://roaringapps.com/app:4449
    and
    http://roaringapps.com/app:4909
    Appear to conclude it launches, but there must be something that doesn't work.  There are some issues both with Lion and Mountain Lion with Final Cut Studio 3:

    My advice, check the Final Cut forums to see what people have experienced with both.  And make sure to follow specs exactly.

  • Installing multiple final cut pro

    Can someone explain how I could successfully install 12 licensed copies of Final Cut Pro on 12 MBPros?  I was wanting to pay for the software by using one iTunes/App Store account. 

    I don't know anything about the purchase of multiple licenses but once you have downloaded FCP X you can simply copy it across to the other computers as the app is "self-contained" unlike FCP 7.

  • Final Cut Pro to work on two computers simultaneously?

    I have two iMac computers running the same version and serial number of Final Cut Pro. But, only one computer can work with Final Cut at a time. I have to log out from FCP to be able to open FCP on the second computer. This limits our ability to work more efficiently on the same project. Is there a solution for this?

    I think you're talking about Final Cut Pro 7. You need to ask your questions about that application on the Final Cut Studio forum.
    No, there is no solution for you aside from taking the computers off the network.
    P.S. If you are using two machines simultaneously you should purchase two copies of the software.

  • Hi, I have small problem, for some time in music area I had two folders to use 1. Apple loops for soundtrack pro 2. Final Cut pro sound effects now both are gray and with out content may I know what happend

    I just went through this and it appears that my Focusrite Saffire was the culprit. I connected all the outputs on the focusrite according to the way the jacsk on the back were labeled and then set up the multichannel speaker setup to match. Then I went into STP, created a pink noise clip and panned it around, the LFE, center and rears were not in the right place.
    I reconnected the hardware to match the 5.1 pan pot in STP then changed the multichannel speaker setup to match. Everything appears to be correct now but I would have loved to have been able to just assigned the output busses to correct outputs in the saffire.
    Next step is to pan that pink noise around with my SPL meter to calibrate the room.

  • Final Cut Pro - Two Video Cards - Display Turns White

    MacPro Xeon 2.0GHz
    3 Gig Ram
    Two nVidia 7300 Video Cards
    Two CRT Monitors and One HDTV
    I have two CRT monitors attached to my original nVidia card. I recently installed a second video card and attached a third monitor to my DVI output (on the second video card)
    I tell Final Cut Pro to display video on third monitor as full screen output. I can see my 720p (or 480p) display. When I press play, the entire screen turns White. (I've tried a CRT monitor, and my LCD HDTV via HDMI to DVI).
    If I remove my Right CRT monitor from my graphics card and attach my HDTV (giving me one monitor and one HDTV) I can get full screen 720p play back. But I don't want to edit with one monitor! I am wanting to have my two monitor editing setup with the third monitor as my full screen display (720p).
    Why does three monitors result in a white frame for playback? Do I need to configure something?
    Help!

  • Final Cut Pro-Two Pictures Question

    Is there a way to have two pictures in the same shot (not a transition from one to another).  For example, have two pictures in opposite corners in which you zoom in from one to the other?
    Thanks.

    Of course. Place them in the timeline, one above the other (as a connected clip), resize and reposition them.
    Set keyframes and let FCP X generate the movement in between.
    I suggest you take a look at one of the video tutorials, like the one at izzyvideo, to familiarize with the basic operations of FCP X: http://www.izzyvideo.com/final-cut-pro-x-tutorial/

  • I had downloaded and used Final Cut Pro 7 (studio 3) on my mac, but it died. Can I download it to my new computer without buying a new copy? I'm not sure of the number of installations for academic copies. How would I do this?

    I had downloaded and used Final Cut Pro 7 (studio 3) on my mac, but it died. Can I download it to my new computer without buying a new copy? I'm not sure of the number of installations for academic copies. How would I do this?

    AH...good. 
    There is no limit on the times you can install it from the DVDs. There's just a limit as to being able to run it on multiple machines AT THE SAME TIME. If your old computer dies, or you sell it (please reformat the drive so they don't get FCP for free), then you can install on a new computer fine.  And you are allowed to install on (1) desktop and (1) laptop at the same time as well...but only use it on one machine at any given time. Meaning you can use it on the desktop at work, and then when away from the office, on your laptop.
    Long story short...you can install it fine without any issues.

  • Can/ how do I link two or more "projects" - not events or clips - "projects" together in final cut pro 10?

    Can/ how do I link two or more "projects" - not events or clips - "projects" together in final cut pro 10?

    Thanks Tom -
    I created two "sequences". They are currently listed individually in the "project library". Now I want to take sequence "B" and attatch it in it's entirety to the end of sequence "A" - forming one long sequence.
    I have tried to drag sequence "B" and drop it into "A's" timeline. I have tried to creat a compound clip. I'm either missing something - or - you can create a compound "clip" or a compound "event" - but perhaps you cannot link to "projects" together.
    Does this help descibe my problem?
    Thanks again.
