- Final Cut Pro is a series of non-linear video editing software programs first developed by Macromedia Inc. And later Apple Inc. The most recent version, Final Cut Pro X 10.4.8, runs on Intel-based Mac computers powered by macOS Mojave 10.14.6 or later.
- Mar 18, 2020 Before you update Final Cut Pro X, you should back up your current copy of the Final Cut Pro application and your existing libraries.This allows you to move your files to another Mac and to continue working on these projects in the earlier version of Final Cut Pro, if necessary.
If you’re already using a licensed copy of an earlier version of Final Cut Pro X, you will be prompted to upgrade your library when the trial application is first launched. It is recommended to keep a backup version of your libraries before upgrading. Once your library is upgraded, you must update your licensed copy of Final Cut Pro to access your upgraded libraries after the 90-day trial period expires.
In Final Cut Pro, you organize your work in libraries. A single library can hold multiple events and projects. A library can also hold the media and Motion content used in your events and projects. You can move your library to an external drive to save space on your Mac, to edit your project on another Mac, or to collaborate on your project with others.
Prepare to move your library
Before you move a library, be aware that the source media files linked to the clips in your project and Motion content might not be located in the library you want to move. If you want to open the library on another Mac for editing or collaboration, you should consolidate the media and Motion content in the library you want to move. That way, you'll have all the content you need to work on your project on another Mac.
If you plan on opening the library on another Mac, you'll have to install any third-party plug-ins and special fonts on the other Mac. Moving your library to another Mac doesn't move your third-party plug-ins and special fonts. Make sure that each plug-in is compatible with the versions of macOS and Final Cut Pro on the other Mac.
Prepare your drive
You can store libraries on an external storage device such as a USB drive, FireWire drive, or Thunderbolt drive formatted as APFS or MacOS Extended (Journaled).
You can’t store your library on an external drive or other disk used for Time Machine backups.
Remove generated files
Final Cut Pro creates generated files such as render files, optimized files, and proxy media files in the background while you’re working on a project. Before you move a Final Cut Pro library, you can delete generated files to save space. Final Cut Pro regenerates render files the next time you open and work on your project. If you delete optimized and proxy media files, you'll have to regenerate them manually when you reopen the library.
- To see how much space generated files take up, select the library in the Libraries sidebar, then scroll to Cache in the Library Properties window.
- Choose File > Delete Generated Library Files.
- To save the most space, select all options, then click OK.
