Pro Applications Updater Removed from Apple Site
In a final death blow, Apple has removed the link to the Pro Apps updater. Excellent news for those who recently purchased Studio 3.
The link here redirects to the Final Cut Pro X page. https://support.apple.com/kb/DL949
I’ve just read that while FCP 7 runs under Lion, the installer is PPC and won’t run in Lion.
While marketing rhetoric from Apple is puzzling, removing support for a product sold as recently as last week is unconscionable.
Like many of you my reaction is WTF!

Merchant Bankers springs to mind.
They’ve done this all very badly.

Like one of the recent posters here was told by a CSR from Apple, go elsewhere for your professional needs…
There is absolutely no other explanation for this roll out. And quite honestly, with everything that’s happened over the last 2 days…can you ever trust this company again?

Does this mean it would be possible to install FCS 3 under Snow Leopard, and then update your computer to Lion, and still have FCS 3 work under the Lion OS?

Does that mean that the FSC3 I just bought to be shipped on Monday won’t be able to be updated to the latest version???!!!???

“That is my understanding.

I have no idea whether Software Update will continue to work for FCP 7, only that that updater link from the FCP support site is gone.
I suggest you ask Apple, presuming that anyone there is listening to customers.

This is disastrous!
Let’s say you have a problem and do a clean re-install. If there is no access to an updater then you are S.O.L.
Damn, I have to going looking for updaters now!!
This just keeps getting better!

Hey…I just came across this:
https://support.apple.com/kb/dl949
But I don’t know what the last updater number was.

Aw Crap! I see what you mean now. When you click download, it goes right to the FCP X link!!!
Not cool. Anyone have the updater downloaded that they can share with me?
