Hi, i have just perchased a copy of Final cut pro studio 2. I spent the two hours loading it onto my computer using all the eight disks provided. Once the installation was complete and i got the "installation was successful message" i opened up all the individual applications, FCP, DVD Studio pro, Motion etc...
When i shut them down and go to open them again, they all ask me to "Enter user information below" name, organisaation and Serial number...
I have done this about four times hoping thet it would stop, but it asks EVERY time i quit an app from FCP Studio 2 and re-open it...

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG??? PLEASE HELP.

I am sorry I can not be of any help...I am having the same problem. Did you find a way around it? Every time I close and reopen the applications it wants all the bloody info again. Please let me know if you got it working, I will do the same.

Thanks,

Honolulu

I have installed it with no problems. What user account did you use to install it?

All of the problems sound like a premissions problem, the last one sound like you may have entered the serial number wrong.

And would you know how we could fix that ? The permission problem ...

I am recently a new Mac user after years on a PC, how silly i was to stay there so long!! So now with my new Mac i am after Final Cut Studio 2 and Final Draft. As i have just shelled out thousands for my new set up, i am open to ideas on how to get these 2 programs. I would love to say that i would like to just walk into a shop and purchase both straight out, but realistically i am not Donald Trump and don't have his cash either. So if anyone has ideas or can help out a new Mac user, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
