Install Final Cut Pro 4 on G3 Macs
I found it easier to just copy the installer package to my hard drive, open it up, find the preflight/VolumeCheck scripts and just edit out the parts that check the processor.
More details please!
Hi,
Install Final Cut Pro 4 on G3 Macs
I've managed to install Final Cut Express 2 on my G3 iMac DV SE 500 by removing installcheck from the package. What code do I need to remove from the info.plist to prevent the application from checking the processor so that I can open it on my G3?

I haven't tried this procedure with other FCP 4.x versions - but they are probably quite similar if not identical in this respect.
This clause acts if your CPU doesn't meet the requirements and quits with a corresponding error message.You simply apply a " # " in front of each line inside the clause like this:
This means the code is treated as comments and won't be carried out when the program runs - hence the installer will continue even though your hardware is 'inferior'.- save the file, install by using the FinalCutProHD.mpkg located in the dir you copied to, reboot. Once installed:
Delete those two lines... yep... get rid of them - saveYou should now be able to run the program - works for me on an 800mhz iBook G3 Good luck - nuxx |
