I'm just upgrading from 6.5 to 7.0.4 (my older MacPro not qualified for version 8).
Hit two immediate stumbling blocks:
On opening MC I was alerted that 3 AMA plug-ins were no longer compatible and I should remove and replace them. I found the 3 XDCAM plugs and trashed them and navigated to the Sony site to download the XDCAM 3.32 AMA plugin.
But when I tried to install it, it told me it wasn't compatible with my OS (10.7.5), and I needed to upgrade to 10.8. Sony's site says the AMA plug-in "supports the same OS versions supported by Avid NLE products" and MC7.0.4 is supposed to be qualified with OS 10.7.5. But the only other plug-in shown on Sony's site is version 2.4 for MC 6.5 -- I think that was what I originally had before this new installation -- I tried it anyway and again got the Avid message that this plugin was not compatible. (I'm not prepared to do a whole new OS install at this point -- I'll revert back to 6.5 unless someone has a solution.)
One other annoying problem -- the window that Avid opens to their website when you click on the Marketplace/AMA Plug-ins menu is tucked way up in the left corner of the screen underneath the main menu bar. I can drag the bottom corner to expand and work with it, but I can't pull it down away from the menu bar or access the top of the window to be able to close the damn thing! I finally got rid of it by re-selecting my workspace to refresh the screen.
Would certainly appreciate any advice!
Thanks,
