I bought a new FCP Studio 2 Academic version to replace the borrowed-from-a-friend program I had.

I used FCS Remover software from Digital Rebellion to remove all the old software and then installed my new version.

After hours of installation when FCS booted up, it showed the old serial number. How can I register and use the new number that came with my new software?

Hi jmunsen,

I thought FCS remover completely removed the serial number file for FCS too...

I believe the serial number is stored in the FCS System ID. This can be found in /Library/Application Support/ProApps.

Thanks

Hello again,

I went to the ProApps support and this is what I found. None of it contains the actual serial number I have for Final Cut.

Any other ideas?

Hi jmunsen,

I'm not sure if you tried to open the file... I think the best thing to do is drag it to your desktop then launch Final Cut. It should now ask you to enter your serial number...

Hope that helps
