    Hi all,
    I’m newbe to Media Composer and I need some advice to install 6.0.1.1
    Teach me if the procedure is correct:
    1) licence deactivate
    2) uninstall Media Composer 6.0.1
    3) install lion 10.7.3
    4) install and reactivate 6.0.1.1

    Thanks in advance

    That’s how I do it, and it’s worked out alright for me. If you have Boris Continuum Complete, I also deactivate and reinstall that though they say you don’t have to. I’m probably just a little OCD about that stuff!

    Thanks Richard,
    I have only Magic Bullet Looks 2
    What do you think about the Lion upgrade?
    I have 10.7.2 combo over 10.7
    What’s the best option to upgrade 10.7.3?

    I always go with the combo upgrades, in fact when 10.7.3 came out, there was a problem with the patch update and the combo was the only way to go. Personally, I would remove Magic Bullet, if there’s a serial tied to an online activation I would deactivate that. Install Media Composer and re-enter the serial. Again, not everybody does this and I’ve heard of it working out, but I tend to be a little crazy about that stuff.

    I’m using 10.7.3 and nothing notably different from 10.7.2 but it works fine.
