  • Downloading FCPX of different computer as my graphics card does work

    Posted by Ben Edwards on June 28, 2011 at 8:31 pm

    OK, I will buy a new graphics card to replace my ATI Radeon HD 2600 but currently there is not enough info so I want to try FCPX now.

    I know from lots of reports my card will work (even though Apple want me to buy a new one, surprise surprise) so if I have access to a computer with a compatible card how can I buy it and transfer it over?

    People are saying this can be done but ime a bit thick and need step by step instructions.

    Download it from App store. Copy app to external drive (drag icon over from application folder). Copy to other conputer (stick in a folder in your application folder if you don’t want to overwrite FCP7).

    Done.

    So – I guess all this “you have to download it to every computer” thing was rubbish…
