![]() Hope this helps anyone else if want to do the same thing good luck. We have a way to restore old projects from LTO tape thanks to Archiware P5, a way to identify, rename and bulk convert old footage in an easy fashion thanks to Kyno and now also a way to convert FCP7 with SendToX and Retroactive to make it more seamless. Almost easier to convert FCP7 to FCPX in one shot but it worked and we were happily editing old projects in the latest version of FCPX. What to do?īack to the old iMac and we used FCPX 10.2.3 to convert these projects from 10.0 version to 10.2.3 library which can then be converted to the latest FCPX 10.4 format. Not helping even an un-install and re-install of Sendtox. When I checked the Sendto folder there is already one Desktop (create shortcut), but its not appearing in the selection. There was a menu for a while to convert these projects but it was now gone. In Windows Explorer Sendto menu Desktop is not available. Latest version of FCPX 10.4 did not know what to do with these projects that were also some times stored on sparse disk images (oh how the Xsan did not like these projects at the time). Some of the restored projects didn’t use FCP7 they used early versions of FCPX with their events and projects folders separated (not the current library structure). Archive restored, FCP7 projects converted to FCPX. We also used Kyno to drill down into all the restored projects to identify en masse all the restored footage that it incompatible with FCPX. ![]() And then FCP7 to XML to sendtoX to FCPX is not too bad. Does it work with Final Cut Express - Unfortunately Final Cut Express does not export XML, which is what SendToX translates. The best part was that we moved from a dedicated old iMac running macOS 10.12 to a newer iMac Pro with macOS 10.14 on the Xsan and can run FCP7 thanks to that new app that makes it work. It would then have access to the network and the SAN where do all our editing and where we restore archive from LTO archive. Now FCP7 could be installed on the same Mac as FCPX.

ENTTI) (says) TN (your persons) 'P'ENE (I shall accept) ECN (not) No. Reading further it also allowed FCP7 to be installed on macOS 10.14 (Mojave)! Now this was a useful revelation. ![]() Then one day I heard of this project that allowed to install iTunes on macOS 10.15 (Catalina) which only had the new Music app. Use Retroactive app to install Final Cut Pro 7
