However, I big problem is that you cannot search and find any FCP 7 projects on Mountain Lion 10.8.4
I’m not as organized as I should be with where I store old FCP projects, and always could do a search for ” .fcp” and pull up everything. Now the search function totally omits anything from FCP 7. Anyone know a work around for this? Right now I’ve misplaced a current file I called “HP Aug.FCP” and it is worse than a needle in a haystack to find it with OS search options. Any third party option to find files by file name or partial file name?

You can have them installed on multiple machines and you can actually have them running the same time if you disconnect one from the internet before you launch it.

This is a great question and I’ve been thinking about it for a while. I am a solopreneur shooter/editor and can select my own software and equipment. I’ve used FCP since version 2 and have stayed with 7 out of habit – I dabbled in FCP X, Premier, and my old AVID and just had a tough time learning those languages when I was proficient in FCP 7. It is getting more tough to edit, though, – all the transcoding of gopro, dslr, xdcam, but I’ve managed. This project, using the H4N Zoom, I was sure I’d have to edit in another system to sync multi-cam + zoom audio. But to my surprise, it looks like pluraleyes will work with FCP 7. So as long people keep developing band aids like this, I’m probably going to stick with FCP 7 until the wheels fall off, or hopefully until someone buys the rights to FCP 7 and then gives us the overhaul in this environment we were all expecting years ago. The longer they wait, the more people will migrate away, though. I still think it is a massive failure for Apple to have abandoned career editors this way.
