“I’ve read one article in an industry Mag where the editor said his $500, 24 inch DVI input monitor, calibrated with a “Spider”, attached to a second Video card in his Mac Pro, was just as good, if not better than the Big dollar options out there?”
I would be interested in reading that article. Where did you see it?

This may be a dumb suggestion, but have you tried running Diskwarrior on the LaCie? Diskwarrior has been performed many life saving miracles for me in the past.
As for the missing media, if you have the actual media on your hard drive, you can manually reconnect the missing clips by right clicking the click in your sequence, selecting “reconnect”, then clicking the “Locate” button in the reconnect window.

Yeah. I have been there. What happens is even if I click on say “2008-3” updated, when I type in my serial it sends me to a page that only has “2008-5” update.
I would love to call FCS support to see if they can help. But the last time I called them, the wanted to charge me $200 to tell me to trash my prefs and clear my PRAM.
Can anyone offer some suggestions on how to get support from Apple without forking out the $$ ?
Thanks for all of your suggestions so far. Please keep them coming.

Here’s how I like to handle DV and HDV in Final Cut: I edit everything in it’s native Codec. Once I have picture lock, I change the sequence settings to a higher quality codec (such as ProRes). Thus, when I render everything out, it basically renders everything to ProRes. If you have the ability to capture ProRes, do that. But if not, this work around produces pretty descent results without all the hassle of transcoding all your raw DV footage to something better.

Oops. I mean I have NOT moved or renamed my Final Cut files.

I tried that. It only allows me to download 2008-5. Useless!

No. I have done that.

Yes, it is the Pro Apps updates that I need. But the Software Update is not offering them, and they are not available via the Apple support site.
Does anyone one know where those updates can be manually downloaded and installed?
Also, a bit of history, I recently reinstalled my OS hoping that it would fix some of the problems I am having with Final Cut crashing constantly. I stopped updating at 10.5.4 because there is an issues with Motion and the 10.5.5 and 10.5.6 graphics drivers on my machine.
My current config is Late 2007 17″ Mac Book Pro 2.6ghz 4 gig RAM. I am running OS X 10.5.4, Quicktime 10.6 and Final Cut Studio 2.0.
Thanks for your suggestions.
