  • What to use in Mac Book Pro?

    Posted by Chris Poisson on August 23, 2007 at 8:37 pm

    I have an LH in my G5 2gig, and I have a Mac Book Pro on the way. I may be working on projects that start or finish on one or the other machine, my question is what software should I put i the Mac Book to make it compatible with the tower? Would it be the drivers that are in the tower or something else?

    Your versions of FCP Studio need to match exactly. That’s about it.

    and, in version 5.1x, Apple changed the license to allow loading the program on one tower AND one laptop if you own both machines. You can’t use them concurrently. I don’t know if that was changed in FCS2, and it was not the case with FCP versions before 5.1

    Enjoy your new MBP! I’m saving up for one.
