[QUOTE="yutopian, post: 296965, member: 24615"] [b]Yes, it can be installed[/b] Your new 17" iMac does have a PCI-Express graphics card, not an AGP. When FCE HD was written by Apple there was no PCI-Express graphics card on the market and therefore your FCE HD installation does not know anything about that new computer and therefore thinks that you have an older graphics card in your computer. You can "fool" FCE HD and make it run with your new iMac. Do this: - Control-Click on the Final Cut Pro application and select "Show package contents". ?- Open the contents folder and open info.plist with TextEdit. ?- Search for AGP replace it with PCI. ?- Save and close the file. ?- Open FCE HD and it works. NB Did not test my HDV cam yet on the iMac/ FCE HD. [/QUOTE]
