10 A dialog appears requiring you to authenticate yourself by typing your name and
password. Click OK when finished.
The Installer displays a progress bar to indicate its status. A dialog appears once the
installation is complete.
You are now ready to insert the other installation discs. The installation process is
similar for each disc, with the exception of the Licensing dialog, which does not appear,
and the extra content included on the Motion and DVD Studio Pro installation discs.
See “Installing Content” on page 10 for more information.
Note: You are not required to install all of the discs—you can choose to skip any of the
discs. However, only by installing all of the discs will you get all of the Final Cut Studio
applications and content.
Once you have installed the discs, you are ready to begin using the Final Cut Studio
applications.
Installing Final Cut Studio on a Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger)
System
When you install Final Cut Studio, its applications are placed in the Applications folder
on your startup disk. You can choose whether the content for each application (such as
templates) is placed in the default location or in a custom location.
Installing Final Cut Studio requires you to insert each of the discs, starting with the
Final Cut Studio installation disc. Once you finish installing that disc, you then continue
installing Final Cut Studio by inserting each of the remaining discs when prompted.
Important: You must start with the Final Cut Studio installation disc, even if you do not
intend to install any of the applications it contains.
Note: Before you can install the software, you need to log in to your computer as the
administrator using the administrator password. See Mac Help for more information.
To install Final Cut Studio and enter the serial number:
1 Insert the Final Cut Studio installation disc into your computer’s DVD drive.
2 Double-click the Install Final Cut Studio icon, then follow the onscreen instructions.
3 The Installer package runs a program to determine if Final Cut Studio can be installed.

Warning: If your system does not meet the minimum system requirements,
installation of Final Cut Studio will not be allowed. Refer to the Before You Install
