Yeah, I know I broke the rule… AGAIN, these are not high-priority projects… like lower than home-video level stuff. Not hard to start again, just a minor PITA. I finished up all the priority work projects prior to the attempted “upgrade.”
These are OSX screen recordings… the audio and video are not in sync, the video is slowed down, the audio is at normal speed with a long stretch of silence at the tail. Simple stuff that shouldn’t be that way. PP17 is obviously screwed up.
In what other ways is it screwed up that I haven’t had the joy of discovering?
Time to learn FCPX that can handle doing such super-difficult stuff like interpreting footage correctly?

That’s what I wound up doing and that’s what worked. Recut an old FCP project without a hitch. Even on that old software there’s a marked zip increase from the 3.06 C2D MBP to the 3.5i7 with 4GB VRAM. Even though it’s not my primary editing software any more, it’s dang handy to still have it on my main station.

FCP7… So yeah, fishy, I doubt it’s a Rosetta issue. Again, the installer begins to run then freezes when I enter the serial number.
Apple support was decidedly unsupportive and tried to upsell FCPX, which I don’t need or want because I’ve already primarily transitioned to Premiere. It would however be swell to use my 5 year old software that some clients still pay me to use.

Thanks Shane, I noticed it didn’t work and then completely uninstalled it… that was just the background.
The problem I’m having appears when attempting to re-install from the DVD’s. Installer gets to the Serial# screen, I put in the serial#, then WHEEEEEE!!!! whirling technicolor cow flop. I can’t reinstall because Installer consistently fails at that point.

updates:
– Finally figured out clip->modify->audio channels. Only it more completely kills the audio (no audio at all on either channel now).
– Transcoded, trimmed, adjusted, and compressed in FCP while waiting for some sort of answer or resolution. Not throwing that away any time soon.
– Adobe doesn’t appear to offer any help to people only running trials (even if they’re seriously considering a purchase of their flagship product – or at least were)
RESOLUTION: trashed everything CS6 related. Rebooted, disk util’d, and reinstalled. Now it all works fine.
Guess my install was hosed in some manner.

Either.
