    Hi –

    I am rolling an edit system back to FCP 5 and I’m wondering what is considered the correct way to Uninstall FCP 6.

    Also, do I have to Uninstall the entire Studio, or can I leave the rest of FCS2 with FCP 5?

    Thanks,
    Jesse Gordon

    I guess that if your FC5 use the same key that your FCS2 you won’t need to unistall your full Studio. If your FC5 come fro a different package I think that you may have problems to make them live together in the same computer.
    To uninstall Fc I’ve always done it manually. Search everything FC related and trash.
    Cheers,

    I don’t think you can mix and match on the same OS. You could install FCP 5 on separate drive with it’s on copy of the OS and boot from it, then reboot to your other drive to work in FCS 2.
    To remove FCS 2
    search Apple’s support site for the following articles and CAREFULLY follow the instructions for removing receipts and other items:
