Is it posiible to install FCS 3 on a brand new iMac (with topped specs)? It will come with Mavericks and that might be an issue....

I'm wondering if it is even possible to install the FCS 3 on brand new out-of-the-box Mavericks OS.... I need FCP 7 for my work. I allready installed FInal Cut Studio 3 on my Mavericks MacBook Air, but that OS was an updated one, from the previos version. It works greate (rendering is a nightmare though :-)).

The thing is that i have read meny post about People unable to Install Finac Cut Studio 3 on a brand new - not updated - Mavericks....

Will i I be able to install Final Cut Studio 3 on a brand new iMac with Mavericks out-of-the-box?

Final Cut Studio '09, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Yes,


I have friends who have FCS 2009 (aka FCS 3) running on 10.9 machines from fresh installs.


Be aware that if you use a third party output device (Kona, Decklink, MXO, etc) you must have the updated drivers as well.


One friend had such issues with his Blackmagic Intensity card in a MacPro that he went back to an earlier OSX to find stability.
