  New iMac 13,1 with OSX 10.9.2 not launching FCP7 after clean install [WITH LOG REPORT]

  Posted by Jon Nicholas on March 27, 2014 at 3:21 pm

  I work at a university, and unfortunately I have no control over which computers are purchased for my department(don’t get me started…). They upgraded our older iMacs to a newer 13,1 iMac with 10.9.2 installed.

  I had the fun of buying an external disc drive, just so I could install FCP7 and the rest of the studio package.

  After the fresh install, I launched FCP7 and after pressing the “Register Later” button, it loads everything up to the Master Templates and then the window disappears, and the application closes. No warning, or window. I have rebooted, shut down, cleaned the preferences. Nothing. Here is a crash report:

  Mavericks is not supported, partition your disk with and install mac os 10.8.

  I’ve been running fcp7 suite on the latest 27″ iMac since January (first on 10.9.1, now on 10.9.2).
  I believe there are several others on this forum doing the same, so it should be possible for you also.

  Two things that might help:
  – You’ll need the latest proapps upgrade from apple, and Software Update should detect this.
  – You may also need to install Perian tools for Quicktime. (It’s end-of-line, just like FCP7.)

  I’ve experienced some transient video/audio latency issues in viewer window: annoying, not quite catastrophic. Biggest issue I’ve seen on the iMac is with external disks dismounting.

  Please keep us posted on what you learn!

  Thanks for the tips! I made sure to update my pro apps, and I installed Perian, but I’m still getting the same issue. I think I’m just going to have to partition and load 10.8. …

  OK, here’s another possibility …
  I did a quick googling of “A/ProFX” and came up with this thread (see below, at bottom).
  This was posted in 2010, and involved FinalCut Express. But the problem seems very similar, if not identical.

  Because I did NOT do the step-by-step install of every final cut (from FCS to FCS HD), I don’t have LiveType loaded (and I didn’t see this problem).
  Based on this discussion thread, I’m wondering if LiveType is an issue here.

  So, it might be worth a try to install w/o LiveType, or perhaps try the method on this older thread.
  (Also – “FCS REMOVER” from Digital Rebellion is a free app — might be handy in your situation.)

  Here’s that discussion link: https://discussions.apple.com/message/10842881#10842881

  Text of the final post in the thread:

  This solution worked for me:

  I installed FCE4 onto a brand new mini (10.6.2) and had the “/Library/Frameworks/ProFX.framework/Versions/A/ProFX” error.

  After an hour of going though the results of googling “/Library/Frameworks/ProFX.framework/Versions/A/ProFX” I found this page:

  https://blogs.oreilly.com/aperture/2008/03/apples-pluginmanager-173-utili.html.

  And installing this fixed the problem. Now FCE4 opens as it should
