Why my final cut pro 5 in install disc look dim and saying upgrade. I make it with studio upgrade to FCP 7. Now saying FCP 5 upgrade and dim

Hi, I used Final cut 5 and 1 year ago I buy it studio upgrade and I make 7. Everything was ok. Now I changed my computer again with mac pro. I started to install in new computer and I see Final Cut Pro 5 dim and saying upgrade. Was not optional cause for dim..Want it 2 media disc too and look like ok but not working..cant started studio upgrade. Anyone can say something please ?

There's no need to install the old version (5) of FCP on the new computer.  Just start with the newest version.  You will be prompted to enter the old serial number during the install process of the upgrade version.
If you've already installed version 5 on your new computer, use this to remove it:http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/  Then install the newest version only.

  • Why does final cut pro x dvd burn take so much time?

    I have been trying to nurn a DVD and upload to YOUTUBE with Final Cut Pro X .......I have done this with ease many times before but now a 6 minute video is taking 3 hours to load fpr a DVD burn and ove 2 hours for YOUTUBE upload..
    I have the energy saver off on ,y imac, and my internet is very high speed.....Help!  Thanks

    Looks as though nobody has any ideas and as you have not given any details of your Mac or FCP X workflow it's not surprising.
    For a start, without knowing any details, you could try trashing the preferences with

    why is final cut pro x 10.0.8 hanging in video preview?

    There's all kinds of problems with FCP and the new iMacs.
    Mostly it's running out of memory, there are several threads about it. I hope there will be an update soon!

  • Final Cut Pro - Long Install Process after clicking "buy" from Trial

    I just clicked "Buy" on my FCP X trial version and now it has been installing for quite a long time.
    Why does it do that? I have the most recent version of the trial version.
    Or is the trial version a different software package that will be overwritten by the purchase?
    I just want to avoid having suddenly two FCP X installations on my computer.

    Thanks, Ian.
    I really had two Final Cut Pro installations of 10.1.3 on my hard drive, each 3.38 GB.
    One was the trial, one the real thing.
    When I clicked the symbol in the dock, the trial opened up and told me it was expired. So I dragged the symbol out, deleted the trial, and dragged the symbol of the real thing into the dock, and now it works.

  • Why would Final Cut Pro 7 work smoother on one user account over another?

    I just purchased a new 27" iMac 3.1 Ghz Intel Core i5, 16GB RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1024 MB. Just went to Mountain Lion a few days ago. I installed a licensed version of Final Cut Pro 7 on my account (Admin). However, the program immediately started to lag. I click on ANYTHING on the FCP interface (Modify, Sequence, etc), it immediately stalls for about 3 seconds, and then color wheel spins for a few more seconds before the menu finally drops down. Footage logs fine but the same thing happens when I drop a small video snippet on the timeline and try to play. Stall, color wheel, then it needs to "catch up" before the footage starts to play.
    I don't think this has anything to do with footage formats or anything like that. I did a little research and someone said to open FCP on a different user account. I did and low and behold, FCP works swimmingly. Very odd. This particular person suggested to uninstall and then reinstall FCP on the main user account. I did. But I still have the same issue with the stalling and lagging of the program on the main user account. Now no footage is logged. It's just an empty project and I'm still having these problems with lagging. So I know it's definitely not a footage issue.
    I ran diagnostics on my HD and everything is perfectly fine. Does anybody know of what could be causing this? Thanks!

    Possibly corrupted preference files. If you don't have it already, download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager.
    Also, since you just did this fresh install, I'd repair permissions in Disk Utility.
    Good luck.

  • Why does Final Cut Pro Crash at Start up?

    This is what console tells me is going wrong! Help what do i do!
    4/27/11 1:18:40 PM          Final Cut Pro[2867]          ProKit's NSWindow addition -setActiveAppearanceDuringRestore: has been deprecated and does nothing on SnowLeopard for apps linked on ProKit 5.x or later. Please remove this method call.

    Try searching for invisible files that are called ProKit, NSWindow, and combinations of those two. They should be in your Library or System folders, Maybe.
    But the larger questions we must have answered:
    Has FCP ever worked for you or ios this a new instalation, first time launch?
    Did you add any new software to your system since the last successful launch of FCP?

  • Installation Problem with Final Cut Pro X Training Disc

    How do I allow read/write permissions with the sparseimage final cut pro X apple pro training series disc?  I can't copy the project files to my desktop.

    Thanks for the response.  I'm not quite sure I understand.  I can't copy the file anywhere:  The Desktop, HD, Even an external hard disk due to (Error-36) which has something to do with the read/write permissions.  I've checked my disk and I'm listed as the administrator with both of these privileges.  I can't seem to get read/write from the DVD itself. It's most confusing!!!!!!  I'm able to download all other kinds of video from my external sources, but I can't seem to get an uncorrupted file into FCPX.

  • Why is Final Cut Pro X running so slow?

    Hi! I have a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro (Version OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3, Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5, Memory 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3) and I use Final Cut Pro X on my computer, however after once I downloaded its software onto my harddrive, Final Cut Pro X runs incredibly slow. I can't even complete a 2 minute project without getting frusrated by its lack of speed. I was looking up on several discussions referring to Final Cut Pro X's lack of speed and I noticed the computer's memory usually has something to do with it. I have 4GB of memory in use, and if i purchased a 16GB memory slot, would that solve my problem with Final Cut? I was hoping it'd be a quick fix because I use Final Cut faithfully in my school's editing lab and would love for it to work on my Macbook Pro! c:

    FCPX is pretty fast, although obviously your experience wouldn't support that statement.
    Performance does depend a lot on hardware, and although your machine is not the beefiest (particularly with the integrated GPU), it should out-perform my 3 year old MBP.
    Yes, more RAM would help. Going to 12 GB, you'll see a big difference. If you can go to 16 GB, all the better.
    However, your current configuration shouldn't be unacceptably slow. Check your HD and make sure you have at least 25% free space. With only 4 GB of RAM, it's important not to have a lot of other processes active the same time. Use Activity Monitor to check on free memory and page-outs..
    Also, you will have  better results if your events and projects are on a fast external drive (Thunderbolt would be best, but the selection is limited. Otherwise, there are Tb to Firewire adaptors you can try and of course, there is USB3.
    Good luck,

  • Why my final cut pro is in photo mode? (Photo is appearing on the top of my timeline)

    Hello,
    I hope someone can help me.
    My final cut pro is in photo mode. over my timeline (middle left of the screen) , there is the icon movie and next to it the word "Photo". When I export my edit to Compressor i can use only the photo format and not the video even if im working on a video sequence. it is not recognized as such. it is weird.

    Let face the evidence I have to make some progress with FCP
    Because the FCP X UI is so accessible, and because people can accomplish a lot of tasks intuitively, new users often try an intuitive approach to learning the application.  However, FCP X is actually a deep/complex app and making the effort to get some structured training is a good investment (IMO). There are books, video tutorials - with and without practice exercises - and, of course, classroom learning. Lots of good sources for that, including Lynda.com, Ripple Training, Larry Jordan, the Apple Pro Training from Peacjpit. Many contributors here recommend Izzy. Tom Wolsky, who is the top contributor here is a teacher/author with info on his  site. All of them offer some form of samples so you can see who's style best fits your needs. Do a search.

  • HT5177 Why does Final Cut Pro X tell me mpg is supported, but wont recognize it when I try to import it from my files??!!

    I am trying to import an mpg file and Final Cut Pro X wont recognize the file.. please help.
    Final Cut Pro says it is a supported file, still wont recognize it!

    Yeah depends on the source but generally MPG hasn't ever been supported in Final Cut Pro- as Tom says you want to convert it to ProRes elsewhere before bringing into FCP X.

  • Why does Final Cut Pro X cost $350 in Australia

    when it costs US$299 in the USA and the Australian dollar is worth $1.06US dollars ?  Shouldn't Final Cut Pro X cost us $280 ??  A price discrepency such as this in a global economy MAY work (at least be partially explicable) with hardware, but I'm stuggling to understand how software delivered via the App Store has a $70 "Shipping Fee" attached !!!

    Weirdly, part of the price shows that Apple has confidence of the relative strength of the Australian economy. They need to set a price that makes sense for the next few years. They obviously think that the exchange rate will change significantly within the next decade. They want to keep the price consistent over the next few versions, which might take us to 2016.
    Sadly for your market, saying 'that's unfair' won't help. The markup in the UK vs. US (which requires as little customisation) was 25-40% for many years up until very recently. Apple will only reduce prices if they feel that a competitor will use a foreign market as a beachhead into their domestic market. That hasn't happened for the last 30 years, so I wouldn't hold my breath...
