Re: Final Cut Studio 3 Upgrade Installation
by Rich Rubasch on Nov 4, 2009 at 2:11:43 am

Not sure if I would recommend Snow Leopard right now. No major advantages.

We cloned the drive, renamed all our existing FC Studio apps with their version number and installed FCS3. All is well. Also updated the Kona drivers etc.

I have never, and I mean never, have ever, and I mean ever, did a clean install of the Operating system before installing Final Cut Studio. For goodness sakes Apple writes all this stuff...and they don't recommend it!

How is your system running now? If great, clone your drive and install away. I only rename my apps so I can still open FC 6 on the same computer as 7. Look in the Library folders....Apple does not remove previous versions of program files from the extensions and receipts folders.

So if you have a solid running system I say clone it and install it and get back to work.
