FCP quits unexpectedly, G5 Quad woes

Posted by Jay Curlee on April 6, 2006 at 10:02 pm

First I get the DC G5 Quad refurb from Apple yesterday and discover that there is no wireless card. My network is Airport.

I used migration manager to move my FCP 5.0.4 from my existing G5 DP 1.8. I try to open FCP, I get as far as “unable to find firewire device” click on continue, and program quits unexpectedly. Can’t report it because there is no wireless card.

Here is what the report says:

Can anyone offer a solution or translation to this?

Thanks,

Jay

BTW, I decided to re-install Final Cut Pro Studio from the discs can got the same result. 2 more hours wasted.

Wipe the startup drive and install everything from ground up. Don’t use the migration manager with a system that you need rock solid. It’s not worth the extra time and in the end you may have to.

Hope this helps-

It looks like you are missing some Quicktime components. I would download the full install of Quicktime 7 and reinstall it.

Well gir, you are the big winner. Sneakered a fresh QT download over there and bingo.

Many thanks. Let’s see what else happens.
