Q: FCP 7 and Lion reconnecting problems
I still haven't heard any comment from Apple on this. I feel caught in the middle here, as an editor. I had to get Avid Media Composer 6 because everyone I work for seems to be running away from Apple now that they've released FCPX. To install the latest version of Media Composer, I had to upgrade to Lion. I was told FCP7 would still work on Lion but I'm having all sorts of issues, beginning with problems reconnecting media.
Does anyone know if Apple is going to release some fixes for Studio 3 so it does work with Lion as advertised. Apple is behaving strangely, or really, poorly these days. It's one thing to leave old apps and hardware behind as you move forward, but when you start leaving your customers in bad situations, that's not good. Please Apple. Communicate with us on this. I'm shocked really. I understood FCP7 had about a 50% marketshare. Why drop that ball?
I don't like Lion that much so far either. Not happy.
