recovering from stupid install mistake – Final Cut Studio
Hello,
After a couple of years of not using Final Cut Studio, I reinstalled it late last night. However, being tired, I made a really dumb mistake and installed all the big media files on my internal hard disk instead of the attached storage.
Is it possible to relocate all the media files? If so, does anyone know where the files would be located?
Thanks for your help. I’m sorry for asking a question about Final Cut Studio here, but didn’t see a FCS forum.
Regards,
Doug -

These files are going to be in your Main Library/Application support
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support
and
Macintosh HD/Library/AudioIn the Application Support most of the elements will be in Final Cut Studio and Livetype.
You can move The LiveFonts, the DVD STudio Pro folder and the Motion folder.
You’ll need to ‘point out’ to the apps where these folder now are in the preferences.The audio folder? The Apple Loops is your ‘big’ folder.
Then tell STP where those files are.Not deal breaking, just painful.
If you screw it up, don’t worry – you can always install these elements separately from the installer discs.
