Customize your installation by selecting and deselecting items in the Custom
Install window.

The LiveType item includes a disclosure triangle that, when clicked, reveals additional
items you can select or deselect. Some items may be dimmed:

Â

Any items that are selected and dimmed are required to be installed and cannot
be deselected.

Â

Any items that are not selected and are dimmed cannot be installed because your
system does not meet minimum system requirements. Placing the pointer over these
items shows which requirements are not met.

Note:

You may need to expand the window and drag the edge of the Package Name

heading to show the full names of some items.

The LiveType Media icon includes a folder icon in the Location column. You can choose
a custom location to place the LiveType media by clicking the folder and choosing
Other from the pop-up menu. The default location for the LiveType media content is
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/LiveType.

Once you have configured the Custom Install window, click Install or Upgrade.

Important:

You may see the Upgrade option even on computers that do not have

previous versions of the Final Cut Pro applications installed. This is because the Installer
has detected at least one file on your system in common with the files it installs, and is
considered normal.

11

A message appears listing the discs required to complete the installation. Click
Continue Installation.

12

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, and prompts you to insert
specific LiveType content discs (if you selected them to be installed) to continue the
installation.

Important:

As you insert the LiveType content discs while installing Final Cut Pro 5, the

Finder displays their contents. Do not click anything in a disc’s Finder window; instead,
only follow the Final Cut Pro 5 Installer’s prompts.

Once you have installed the discs, you are ready to begin using the Final Cut Pro applications.
