Hi, Lost my Go Pro on Vacation, Filmed many videos with my iPhone X (Quick Time Video), trying to import to Final Cut Pro X (Version 10.3.4) But Final Cut Pro won't allow it. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you

In addition to what Tom said: if, for some reason you can’t update FCP X, you may still convert your iPhone videos in one of the following ways:
-in your mac (if you have at least High Sierra, I believe) by opening in Quicktime Player and exporting as H264.
-when transferring from the iPhone to the mac: in the iPhone settings Photos->Transfer to mac or pc, select “most compatible”.

Thank you Luis, but on my MacBook Pro (Mac OS Mojave) only option is export as 1080p /720p/ 480p. and on my iPhone, no option like "most compatible". Any other suggestions.
Guessing the iPhone media might have been shot in HEVC, which requires FCP 10.4.
Hi Luis, exported in 1080p and it worked. Thank you very much. Thanks Tom also ....
