late '08 MBP & Motion 2.0

[shelbyNocturne]

So, I just got the MBP and uploaded FCP (an older version), and it works after a little coding correction in textedit...

However, I tried to upload Motion 2 and I get coreFoundationUnknownErr when trying to register it, plus - once the program is opened it crashes everytime. I've tried reloading the program several times.

So, am I just screwed here and have to purchase Motion 3 ...? That of which, I'm assuming that I'd have to buy in the FC Studio package...?

is your FCP v5.0.X or v5.1.X?

You just need the Universal Binary version.

Final Cut Studio 1 can run on Leopard fine.

If you have the PPC version just borrow the discs from someone else and use your own serial number.

I don't think Apple offers the crossgrade anymore beacause FCS2 has been out for awhile now.

No, a v5 serial number will not work with v5.1 discs... that was the whole point of the crossgrade. Everyone got new discs and new SN's. If you have v5 (non-Universal Binary) then yes, you'll need to upgrade to FCS2 which will be $699, I believe, since you don't have the latest version (would be $499 if you have v5.1).

No.

You can use a FCS 1.0 serial with 1.1

I didn't get a new serial.

Sure you didn't crossgrade from one product not the whole studio?

Nope, it's FCP 4. It works fine. It's just that Motion won't work.

Neither should work.
