Q: Apple Compressor v3.5, doomed to fail?

    Alright everyone I have read the forums so no need to point me in the direction of an old one. I have come to the conclusion that Apple Qmaster 3.5.3 and Compressor 3.5.3 are sabatoging me into buying compressor 4! I am yet again unable to submit a batch to a cluster or my own computer (submit button grayed out).

 

Solutions I have tried and failed...

 

1) Update Qmaster to latest version (3.5.3) with Pro Applications Update 2010-02

 

2) Tried using Compressor Repair

 

3) Completely uninstalled Qmaster, Compressor and Motion(Apple recommended Motion as well?) according to their troubleshooting documents. Re-installed, viola it worked... until I updated using the automated Software Update...

 

4) Renamed my computer in sharing preferences and Qmaster preferences to a simple name... like iMac.

 

 

 

    Back to square one... is there a reason Apple comes out with an update that keeps a program from working or is this a forceful way to make me pay $40 for a program that is exactly the same minus a couple new presets? This is beyond frustrating.

 

System: iMac 3.4Ghz Quad-Core Intel Core i7

Final Cut Studio '09
