  • Will FCP 7 in Mavericks OS upgrade from Mountain Lion (10.8.5)?

    Posted by Phil Snyder on January 17, 2014 at 8:42 pm

    I’m running an iMac 27″ (mid 2011) 3.4 Ghz Intel Core i7 AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1024 MB.

    I have a question about Mavericks (10.9.1). I called Apple and they couldn’t guarantee that FCP 7 or any other third party programs such as Toast 9, DVD SP4, Compressor 3.5.3, Streamclip, Motion 4.0.3, Epson NX 415 scanner, etc.

    I’m especially concerned about FCP 7 because, although I have taken and plan to re-take the FCP X Rippletraining tutorial for which I need Mavericks to run FCP X on, I still have some ongoing FCP 7 projects that I want to be able to run.

    Apple suggests backing up my current OS (Mountain Lion 10.8.5) on Time Machine and re-installing if necessary.

    Have you heard of any problems with Mavericks and FCP 7 and any other 3rd party programs that run OK on Mountain Lion?

    Thanks,

    Do a search in this forum and you’ll find another thread like yours (when mavericks was released) with all your answers. Cheers
