Updated Final Cut Pro X won't let me open old projects
Final Cut Pro X wasn't launching, so I updated it to the latest version. Now it's opening, but it won't let me open my old projects, and when I try to update my old projects to the new version, the app crashes. What do I do?

Final Cut Pro Trial won't let me export
So I got the Final Cut pro Trial about 2 weeks ago and I was able to export 3 videos just fine. Now all of a sudden I just finished my 4th video, added commentary and everything else and it won't export. I don't see anything wrong with the project except for some reason the cross dissolve transitions won't render. Nothing is going on in the background, I've tried closing out the program, restarting my computer, nothing helps. I can export any other projections too. For some reason I click file, share, master file and nothing happens. I'm able to click it, but once I click it, nothing happen, where as before the export settings pop up. I always tried using the export option on the right, and the same thing happens. I checked and all the files are working fine, so it's not like any clips are missing. Can anyone help? Thanks
Could you post a screen shot of the project libary and the toolbar?
Reinstalling the app doesn't effect the events or projects. Sounds like some weird permissions problem. -
Final Cut Pro X won't let me export because I worked from an SD card
Hello,
I made the stupid mistake of editing my project from an SD card and now FCPX won't let me export it. I have since exported the original files onto my hard drive and I attempted to relink the files in the project folder but no luck. The option to relink files opens a dialogue box but the computer can't seem to find the files and the option to manually locate the files is greyed out. This is a time sensitive issue and if I can't solve the problem I will have to stay up all night to complete the project again. The video files are AVCHD, does this have something to do with it? I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea what to do. Help??TTry the reimport from camera function to import from the card.

You probably need to update your software for use with Mavericks.

My Final Cut Pro X won't let me change titles,
It doesn't crash or anything, I literally double click the text and nothing happens, I can click it as much as I like and nothing happens, I can't edit it. help!
I am having an identicle problem - I double click the text and it does nothing. When the clip is selected, the text gets a white border around it - and i cannot double-click it to edit.
I tried to insert a screen shot but the 'insert image' button wouldn't work - ironic how everything breaks when i need it .
So I hope my description was good enough! Thanks! -
I cant update final cut pro! It is final ur pro 10.0.6. Please help
Hi blackstorm,
This is a good place to find answers to one's FCPX problems because there are a lot of helpful people here.
As I look down the list of posts on the FCPX page here I don't see a lot of GREEN "This solved my problem" signs yet there are posts where the problem got solved. It helps everybody if there is an indication of a problem being solved because that is often where we go to first.
If someone helps you they can be rewarded with a "Like" (that doesn't mean that they necessarily Solved the problem but that you liked their response) or even a "Star" (Really helped you and/or you really liked their response).
Giveing people who help you an Atta-Boy and a pat on the back makes them feel good.
So folks, if soeone helps you please don't be bashful.
If you figured it out yourself it also helps to come back and say what you did that fixed it.
Just because one can get frustrated doesn't mean one can't leave some good carma. -

HT1338 Not able to update Final Cut Pro X to latest version.
Macbook Pro 15" 2.6gHz, Retina display notebook:
When I try to update Final Cut Pro X (version 10.0.1) from within the software, the dialogue returns that all software is up to date. I know for a fact that FCP X is now at version 10.0.5. Spotlight is enabled for all system and software. How do I updage my FCP X?? Help. Thank you.Thank you for your reply. I followed your suggestion: Checked once more in the App Store for the Update to Final Cut Pro 10.0.4 and did NOT find it. So, I deleted FCP X version 10.0.0 to the trash bin. I emptied the Trash Bin. Now when I go to the App Store, the only option I can find is to purchase a new application. There is no where to simply download the application in the App Store that I can find. I hope I have not been led to delete my working application and can not retrieve an update!!
What do you further suggest at this juncture? Thank you.

How to update final cut pro newer version?
How to update final cut pro newer version?
Do you have Final Cut Pro X? (To check, go to the menu bar and click Final Cut Pro > About). If you don't have version 10 (X) I don't think you can update it any way other than buying it from the Mac App Store, which requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later.
It's currently $300 on the Mac App Store, which is an enormous drop from what it used to be. -
Just got a new computer that came loaded with Final Cut Pro 4, when I go to open it I get a "Configuration Error" saying, this software requires certain hardware or software which is missing.

Hello,
Please help me figure this out. I'm very unhappy at the moment. I'm fustrated and don't have any idea how to revert to the original version before the update was done on iMovie 10. I NEVER hated APPLE until NOW!! I love APPLE products and apps so please help me stay in that mindset. So I worked on some movie projects when I got my macbook pro 6 months ago. I update reguarly. I saw the update prompt and honestly, I did not think I would have ANY issuess with opening my previous files that I created only a few months ago with this updated version.The new updated version of iMovie 10 won't let me open my previous files I created before the update today. I have a wedding that I'm trying to finish and deliver and now I can't because that file version won't open. I keep getting an error message and the iMovie app closes. Last night I saw the file and tried to open it but no luck. Error message came up again. I reboot and turned off my laptop for the evening and tried again just now but nothing!! I need that video. My job depends on it! I worked so hard on this wedding video and now it's lost and won't open. I work another job and don't have much time. I really don't want to start all over again. Please help me. Thanks so much for your assistance.
Fustrated APPLE customer
Jolly A. RuppI also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?
I am running Yosemitie on a iMac.

I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Project that is HD, and tried reconnect media with original HD movies (video), the sequence project got distorted for all the text, shapes used and all.. everything changed its orientation and scale.. Is there a way by which I can preserve my work done on DV PAL and switch it preserving its proportions, scale and orientation, but on a HD project sequence?? Appreciate your help and advice..
Yes. A couple of ways that might work.
First Way
What you need to do is load one of your hd clips in the viewer and edit into a new HD sequence. Does it display correctionly?
OK, select the clip in the hd timeline and copy (command-c). Now go to the HD sequence with the material that's distorted. Select all (command-a) and paste attributes (option-v) and choose basic motion and distort. That should maek things work. What won't work is anything that you've adjusted as far as basic motion or distort in your PAL sequence. That I'm pretty sure you'll have to redo.
Second Way.
Choose your original PAL sequence and do a Media Manage changing the sequence preset to the appropriate HD paramenters with the media offline. You then should be able to reconnect these clips with your original HD media. -
Is Final Cut Pro the only software that can open video .MXF files for Macs?
Hello,
Many thanks in advance for your attention.
Trying to find software that will edit .MXF Video Files to work with Mac.
As the edit is simple, prefer iMovie, but happy if the Conversion software only works with FCExpress (or even FCPro if that is the only alternative).
1. If it matters, .MXF (Material Exchange Format) Video files came from shooting on a Panasonic 500 P2. Originally downloaded onto a Windows system, using Adobe Premiere.
2. I just want to see and convert some of the shots I did for my Reel, etc., but I have a Mac.
3. I have iMovie HD, iMovie 09, and FCExpress (which I don't know how to use that well).
4. When I attach an External HD with backup files of all the footage shot, they show up named as .MXF files. They appear as VLC files (VLC icon), but the suffix is .MXF.
5. When I try to play them as VLC files, they won't play. It seems they start to play, but then the VLC software quits.
6. So I have tried downloading some software on the Internet that Google says converts .MXF files.
I tried: iSkysoft Video Converter, AVCWare Mac Video Converter, MPEG Streamclip, and a couple others. They all seem to have basically the same conversion setups, but when I click to pick one .MXF file, none of them recognize it. (The file in my Browse window is greyed out).
7. MoyaVideo Converter for Mac recognizes the .MXF file, but when I hit the "conversion" button - I tried a couple different settings, all it seems to convert is the first frame. Even if the .MXF file says a clip is 123MB or 43 seconds long, etc.
8. I can't even watch the clip in Preview. Press Play and it is just the first frame.
9. I have read elsewhere in these forums, some people touting conversion software from a company in Germany - mfxformac. I am fine with paying for conversion software, but $500?
10. And I have read elsewhere that only Final Cut Pro has a codec that will open .MXF files. If this is so, why do the above companies claim to have software that opens .MXF files for Mac?
11. Isn't there a further problem if I can't even see the video using VLC? Or is that because I am using Mac and need FCPro with the right codec?
Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.MXF files from P2 can only be imported using FCP. iMovie can't, nor FCE...if you are talking about APPLE software. Avid deals with MXF files natively. But FCP will ONLY import them if the entire P2 card structure is intact. Please tell me that you have the entire P2 card backups. If not, then it won't work. If you do...then here is the process for importing into FCP:
P2 Workflow with FCP 6
3. I have iMovie HD, iMovie 09, and FCExpress (which I don't know how to use that well).
Then you need someone to provide you with QT files of this footage. None of them work with P2.
NONE of the converters you listed will work... Sorry.
9. I have read elsewhere in these forums, some people touting conversion software from a company in Germany - mfxformac. I am fine with paying for conversion software, but $500?
That software is to get it to work with Final CUt Pro natively. What it doesn't do is convert the footage to QTs. There is also Raylight and Calibrated...but again, they are for FCP.
P2 is a professional format, and to use it you need professional software. iMovie won't work...nor will FCE. If you need to work with it in those formats, you need to have someone import the files and convert them to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec).
HD Log might work...but not sure what QT format it converts to. A demo is available.

Downloaded the FCP trial version from the Apple FCP site several times and still get the following error.
“Final Cut Pro Trial.app” can’t be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed.
Safari downloaded this file today at 1:34 AM from www.apple.com.
Strange that Apple can't verify it's self.To get around that, go to system preferences>security & privacy>allow apps loaded from anywhere. Then set it back to whatever you wish after you finish the download.
