    Can’t installed FCP 5 on my G4 Powerbook

    Posted by Luiggi Berrios on June 4, 2005 at 5:22 am

    I just got Final Cut Pro Studio 5 and when I try to installed the first cd of FCP app I get a Message that
    says that FCP cannot be installed in this computer because it don’t have the hardware requirements.

    My Powerbook is a G4 12″ with the following overview:

    Hardware Overview:

    Machine Model: PowerBook G4 12″
    CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (3.3)

    CPU Speed: 867 MHz

    Memory: 640 MB
    Bus Speed: 133 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: 4.5.5f4
    Serial Number: UV3032J8MRT

    AGP Graphic card

    GeForce4 MX:

    Type: display

    Is there any workarounds on this problem, I need to digitize some HDV Video from a Sony FX1 camera and this only can be done with FCP 5.

    You need to be running QT 7 and 10.3.9 or later to install… are you?
