Fuck off with the SPAM please, “maritaberg802.”
Does this mean Final Cut Pro works with Yosemite now?
Compatible with Yosemite, but NO ONE mentioned it. Odd.
When the public release of OSX Yosemite, the next update for FCPX will be release it too and everyone have to back up everything in FCPX before we install the next update.
Can anyone confirm that the whole of Compressor 4.1.2 is actually 64bit because right now it is only 32bit.
Still 32.
Thats great …but guys are having problems still with FCPX and motion 5…have all the updates…still nervous about Yosemite…advise please
