10.3 and previous version on the same system?
Hello.
I installed 10.3. I am now upgrading the libraries I was working on. Some went through flawlessly, one is showing some issues. It won’t upgrade. If I launch El Capitan and open it from the “old” FCPX, everything is fine. I already tried to create a new library, copy the project file onto it and then consolidate media to see if could help, but it won’t open in 10.3 anyway. This is the error message:
Having to launch a different OS from a different drive just for that library is a bit annoying, so I was wondering if it was possible to have the two FCPX version installed at the same time. Has anybody already tried?
Thank you.Fabrizio D\’Agnano

Someone has tried it, and it seems to work but I won’t mess with it.
Next thing to do would be to “Show Package Contents” on the library and delete the Currentversion.flexolibrary file, then launch 10.3
See if that fixes the issue.

Thank you very much, Jeremy.
I deleted that file, and the library upgraded just fine.

I have been running 103 and 10.2.3 on the same computer, one with mac OS Sierra and the other with OS X El Capitan. Both computers have both version of FCP X on them and I launch and use them without issue, EXCEPT
10.2.3 on Sierra I’ve lost the ability to scrub audio in the inspector.

After solving the issue of some libraries not getting upgraded, following Jeremy’s precious advice, I’m experiencing an almost flawless editing after upgrading to Sierra by a clean install. The only things that happen sometimes are unexpected quits caused by the latest Blackmagic Desktop Video driver (it was the same with El Capitan, I had to revert back to older drivers, and I’m going to do the same now) and skimming sometimes going off. Nothing really serious. I have the feeling everything is snappier, and I’m certain importing from Canon cards is now really much faster, but I can’t tell if it’s the new OS or FCPX, since I upgraded them together.
