Update FCP5 to FCP7 after FCPX install??

Hello FCP Gurus,
So I just bought FCP-X, not thinking that it would effect my current beloved FCP7.  But low and behold, after installing, it reduced my FCP7 to FCP5!  And then when I downloaded the ProApps update 2010-02 to upgrade back to 10.7, it told me that my computer doesn't need the update!  So now I have all my FCP7 projects that can't be opened in FCP5 because they're "too new!"  Any suggestions???
Thanks!

FCP 5.x, whether the stand alone or as part of Final Cut Sutudio is a pay for upgrade to FCS 2009 - which includes FCP 7. You didn't get it via Apple Software Update.
FCS 2009 is a set of disks (7 or 8 DVDs, dunno exactly, my set is in a safe deposit box at my bank)
$16 bucks? Tell him I'll buy a truck load at that price. These babies were $300 if you had a prior version, $1000 if not. What kind of people are manning the Apple support lines these days? In my day, you had to know every single product not only blindfolded but after being beaten senseless, hit with sticks, then drowned in a bucket and spat upon by Windows gamers. Pffft!
"I have a iPhone, tight jeans, a Justin Beaver haircut and horn rimmed spectacles"... Welcome to Apple.
They used to employ people who knew what they were talkng about. For shame Apple. For shame.
Now, get off my lawn you youngsters.

  • Install FCP7 after FCPx

    Does anyone know if there are issues re installing Final Cut Pro 7 and the rest of studio on a clean Snow Leopard intal where Final Cut Pro X is already installed?
    My current set up (new machine) has issues with FCPX but on another partition with just the OS and FCPX it works fine. I was intending to remove the existing partition so the clean install remains, migrate personal info and docs plus programs from an external carbon copy of my existing set up.
    If I remove both versions of Final Cut plus the rest of studio and the new Motion and Compressor from the carbon copy partition then migrate apps I hope re installing studio  will fix all my issues. Has anyone tried a partial migration with success?

    Great news, it is all fixed. I used an application called FCS remover to uninstall FCS studio 3 and FCP X as well as Motion and Compressor. Re installed Studio from the disks, down loaded the updates so then Studio 3 was working fine.
    Next tried to download the three new apps but my system (App store) still had them as installed. After discussion with AppleCare created a new user and downloaded the three apps then changed back to my normal account and everything is working perfectly.

  • Stuck at login screen after Lion install

    I downloaded and installed Lion on my late 2008 mbp with the latest updated snow leopard and after the install, I'm stuck on a screen with icons of my users. If I click nothing happens. I tried repairing disk permissions as well as re-installing Lion but nothing has helped. Any ideas?

    You might see if this works:
    Clearing Caches to Fix Login Problem
    You will need to type some Unix commands. If you are not comfortable with this, I don't know of anything other than a re-install. But if you are careful, you should be OK. I recommend you print this out in a largish mono-spaced font so you don't miss any spaces (or add extra ones). Note that case is important.
    Be careful. Some of these commands are dangerous, since you are going to be root.
    Start up in Single-user Mode. When this has finished you will see a prompt ending in '#', although there may be other messages. Enter the following commands after the prompt:
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    Press RETURN. Wait a few seconds for 8-10 lines of output. If the last line says repairs were carried out, repeat this command until you get a message 'The volume <yourdiskname> appears to be OK'. Then continue with:
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    cd /Library/Preferences
    rm com.apple.loginwindow.plist
    rm com.apple.windowserver.plist
    cd /Library/Caches
    rm -r *
    cd /System/Library
    cd /System/Library/Caches
    rm -r *
    reboot
    Press RETURN after each command.
    This should now take you to a proper login screen after the normal boot sequence. You should then Repair Permissions by using Disk Utility (in your /Applications/Utilities folder).

  • Why will airplay not work from my desktop to apple tv after I installed the new update?

    After I installed the new Updates to Itunes, I can no longer use airplay from my desktop to my Apple TV, it goes orange and says it does not work. Please help! They are both on the same network and Apple TV has been updated.

    Figured it out, you have to add a port!

  • After I installed the latest update, MSVCR80 was not installed and itunes will not work

    After I installed the latest updat to itunes, it did not install properly. I received the following messages:
    Service "Apple Mobile Devise (Apple Mobile Devise) failed to start. verify that you have sufficent privileges to start system services Abort, Retry, Ignore
    Itunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall itunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)
    When I click on the itunes icon, I get the following message:
    The computer can not start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your compyter. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

    I've revised my advice slightly...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall go to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
    HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
    HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above then search the computer for copies of the file QTMovieWin.dll - you should only have one copy in the relevant folder for your system.
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support (32-bit Windows)
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support (62-bit Windows)
    Delete any others and not only should this fix the problem, but prevent it from recuring on subsequent updates.

  • After I installed the windows 8.1 update, podcasts and music won't play

    After I installed the windows 8.1  update, itunes stopped playing. When I try to play, it brings up the  song but stays at 0:00. My subscribed podcasts still download but they  all stay at 0:00 too. I can click on a later point in the song/podcast  and it moves to that point but just stays there as if it is paused but  indicating it is playing in the controls.
    I  have unistalled/reinstalled itunes and have the same problem.

    Messages stuck in updating after Yosemite install.  Tried re-install of Yosemite and quit messages, still unable to access.

    Hi,
    Go to the ~/Library/Attachments folder.  (well it should be a folder).
    If it is not a Folder then rename it and create a New folder with the same name.
    restart Messages.
    Or if you have a Time Machine backup replace the Non folder item with an Original from just before the update.

  • Java Update - After deployed install and settings

    Hi there,
    In our managed Windows 2000 environment with Windows XP Pro clienst (SP2) we use Active directory to deploy software packages.
    We are currently trying to install J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5, which works perfectly. We have made a transform file for giving answers to the MSI file of the Runtime Environment.
    In the tranform file we have specified as wel that "Java Update" will be disabled after installation. This works well, too. After deploying the package, however, we notice that when a user logs on onto the workstation, a message is diplayed on screen, asking the user whether or not he want to re-enable the Java Update mechanism.
    Is there a way (e.g. by a registry key, or another MST adaptation) to prevent this message?
    Another question: is it possible to set the "Temporary Files", "Jar compression" level and several security settings like "Warn if certificate authority can not be verified" via registry keys or within a transform file?
    Any help would be kindly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sander.

    I don't know what happened, but AFAICT, you did the job wrongly. I suggest redoing it this way (TM help files) and not worrying about fixing the mucked up system:
    +*To revert to a previous version of Mac OS X:*+
    +1. Insert the Mac OS X installation disc in your computer’s optical drive (or an optical drive connected to your computer).+
    +2. Double-click on Install Mac OS X+
    +3. When the Language Chooser appears, select your language, and then click the Continue button (looks like an arrow).+
    +4. Choose Utilities->Restore System From Backup.+
    +5. In the Restore Your System dialog, click Continue.+
    +6. Select your Time Machine backup disk.+
    +7. Select the Time Machine backup you want to restore. To restore your computer to the state it was in before you erased it, choose the most recent backup.+
    +8. Follow the onscreen instructions.+
    Alternatively, if the SuperDuper! backup was a bootable one of your previous installation, restore it. That's better and faster than mucking with the TM restoration procedure above.

  • HT4561 After updating to 10.6.3, I installed the 10.6.8 update just to start experiencing these font issues. HELP! How do I get the fonts to display correctly in my browsers especially (Chrome & Safari)

    After updating to 10.6.3, I installed the 10.6.8 update just to start experiencing these font issues. HELP! How do I get the fonts to display correctly in my browsers especially (Chrome & Safari)

    What I ended up having to do was open up the Font book & remove duplicates. I knew it was Arial that was causing the problem, so I deleted the duplicate of that font. Inadvertantly I deleted all the Arial regular font, so I had to reinstall one copy. That was the solution. Thanks!

  • 4S hangs updating apps after iOS6 install

    I updated my 4S to iOS 6.0 this morning.  Initially, it hung on restart and I was forced, after over 30 minutes with no change, to restore to factory, then restore from the backup I made prior to installing the new iOS.  It restored and installed iOS 6 with no issues.  Everything looked good until I attempted to install/update apps.  Four of them hung at "waiting" for an hour.  I updated them in iTunes and attempted to update them on the phone via a sync to no avail.  I restarted my MBP and tried again.  Still hung up.  I finally got movement, one app at a time, by restarting the iPhone - four times over.
    This afternoon, there were more apps to update.  Silly me, I just asked the iPhone to do it.  Again, I am hung up at "waiting."  This time, nothing works.  I don't even have the option, via the iPhone or iTunes, to delete and reinstall them.  I've restarted everything, and am down to doing another restore if no one has any better suggestions.  I just don't want to be stuck restoring every time there's a major app update until this is addressed.
    I have seen "Cannot sync iPhone. unknown error 1136" a couple of times upon attempting to sync while the app updates were hung up, but a restart of iTunes 10.7 got rid of that message.
    Anyone else seeing this and managed to get past it?  Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    Barb

    So, I ended up calling AppleCare.  We tried a few things, but ultimately ended up doing the restore to factory defaults option as even attempting to install apps directly ftom iTunes wasn't working. 
    Instead of restoring to backup, we started fresh and tried to install an app.  No problem.  So it looked like bad info from my iPhone was causing the problem.  I wasn't ready to give up and restored from my morning backup after I got off the phone. 
    While I sat and impatiently watched 90-some apps install during the restore-from-backup, I realized something.  During that process earlier today, I hadn't liked where the iOS was putting a couple things, and the fact that it had forgotten to put in an app or two.  I had rearranged the offending items and added the missing apps.  Then I hit "sync."  Ya, in the middle of a restore.  Since the latest restore-from-backup is working fine and installing apps without an issue, that had to be the culprit. 
    So, if you're having problems after doing a restore-from-backup after issues installing iOS 6, ask yourself if you did ANYTHING on your phone or if you re-synced during that restore.  If you did, you might seriously consider re-doing that restore.

  • On Windows 7, neither my quicktime or iTunes will start. This started after I installed the newest update. All the files that are needed are there. I recently updated Quicktime to see if that would work, but it didn't.

I looked through some other discussions like this, and found out that all of my files are correct. Some people are saying that they needed to remove Filebot, but I can't find that on my computer.
