  FCP 5.01

  Posted by scottwitt Scott witt on March 26, 2007 at 6:10 pm

  Hi All,

  Due to lack of internet access I am still running 5.01 and not 5.04.
  Also, I am running 10.4.8 on a Dual 1.25GHZ 2 Gig RAM G4 powermac.

  All was running good until I tried to install soundtrack pro and loops.
  I had deleted my old loops by mistake a year ago soundtrack, (not pro version
  )
  I am not new to problems. trashed prefs, repaired permissions.

  Restarted, even uninstalled soundtrack.

  Do I hopefully just need to plug in a software update?

  I found this thread

  Thanks and of course I have a project due.

  Thanks,

  now when I try to start up FCP it gets all the way to its last breath on start up
  and looks like it is stable and 3 seconds later
  It just quits, before I can do anything.

  Hi Scott

  I can’t really help you with the specifics of the problem (all I can suggest is what other people have suggested already and that you look at Larry Jordan’s excellent Troubleshooting guide at https://www.larryjordan.biz/articles/lj_trouble.html).

  However, what I can do is post you out a downloaded patch for FCP on a CD if that would help. Just tell me exactly the version patch you need and your address and I’ll do it tomorrow ASAP. I hate to see other people in trouble – it really sucks and if I can use my broadband connection to help someone in an emergency I’ll gladly do it. I assume you’re in the UK? If you can reimburse me, I’d also be fine with sending it out on a courier if it’s really time sensitive.

  Email me on jgallaghereditor at yahoo dot co dot uk and we can sort it out.

  John

  Thanks for the offer. I am in the US.

  I ironed it out. Nothin like a reinstall to cure all your problems.
