FCP 4 and FCE HD are both crashing on renders. I am not looking for
FCP help
from this list but it would be welcome if you think I am looking in the
wrong direction blaming QT - From what I have found on the web, the
problem
is apparently linked to 10.3.9 OS and QT 7.
(I have blown away preferences and run system clean up tools to no
avail)
Anyone know how to remove QT from a mac completely? I am really under
the
gun to fix my pro apps and this is the only thing that was changed
recently,
the update to QT.
I cannot find a re-installer for 7.1.3 to drop it down to 7.0.1 or
other, so
that I can then use one of the reinstallers to get it to below rev 7.

Am assuming by your last line that you've looked at:
(uninstall QT3-6, with LINKS to some QT7 tools), if the re-installers
there don't work on 7.1.3? Perhaps the Uninstall is hidden in the
"Custom Install" option, same as pre-7 installers?
However, did come upon this thread:
However, your machine will be unusable afterwards. Do not do this at
home, folks"
So not sure if doing the above, then immediately installing QT would
work or not. (Read the whole thread, esp. the end to see what I mean.)
FWIW, am running FCP 4.5 (HD) with QT 7.1.2 Pro (not the latest!) on
OS X.3.9 without problems. Never upgrade during projects though, so
7.1.3 will remain in my unchecked upgrades for awhile...
And on stupid assumptions, you do have enough RAM and Hard Drive
memory for the renders, correct?
