UNINSTALLING FINAL CUT PRO

UNINSTALLING FINAL CUT PRO

Can any one tell me how to uninstall Final Cut Pro completely? All my filters and sound loops etc are spread across multiple drives. I wish to start completely fresh and re-install Final Cut placing the loops etc onto one specific drive.

thanks

It's a shame that not every app comes with it's own uninstaller.

The link provided covers the same locations.

Not sure if you can pick a desinated location for the loops. You can simply copy it to new location.

Filters are in one location: library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support
Just trash it.

Download the 'FCP Rescue' and it will delete some prefs and other files for you. It's also handy to have when FCP crashes and it will restore your prefs.

Trash the application FCP.

Reinstalling the software will over-write the rest.
