    Does anyone with leopard know if the 10.5.1 update improves fcs2 stability. I’m, still on tiger (with latest fcs2 updates) but will only upgrade to leopard when it’s safe.

    Just installed Leopard & FCS2 on a dual 1.8 G5, a G4 iMac, and a Macbook Pro. They all seem to running fine with FCS2, of course, because that’s all Apple. There was one FCP crash. Make sure you run Software Update several times. It’s the “outside world” you’ve got to worry about. Our Epson printer won’t do discs anymore, the Canon scanner won’t go without VueScan (VueScan has better Canon support than Canon, seriously!), and then there’s Adobe CS3. Are their updates out yet? I guess we’ve got no way to use that until they are. That’s probably why my scanner wouldn’t go, I was using Photoshop CS2.

    I’ve installed the upgrade and it did not correct my problems with Final Cut Studio 2 running with Leopard. Too late, I’ve read the many postings that Leopard is not ready for Motion, etc.

    Now, I will search for advise on moving back to OS 10.4.

    Ok, the one piece of advice that is given on this and just about every forum that deals with Final Cut Pro and all the Apple apps is to clone your hard drive before ANY full OS upgrade.

    I’m assuming you did not do this?

    You guessed right. No clones.

    Guess I’m learning quickly about the importance of forums.
