Finaly it's everyone's turns to be happy ! Media Composer 3.01 cracked for mac and runs on 10.5.3/10.5.4 :D

 

Hey PM!

 

thanks for the "heads-up" on this!

I use a "legal" AMC on Windows and now I am curious how Hackintosh handles this program... this could be very interesting!

 

regards, ninetto

finally thanks to someone who crack the avid mc3.

avid mc3 runs on hakintosh faster than windows.

 

thanks again.

 

hey guys,

I know this is an old thread, but did any of you try activating media composer using software activation on a hackintosh? I don't have a dongle with my version, and it's not letting me activate.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, if you can't find the medicine you are looking for on the internet, send me a pm and the version of AMC you have, but I have only worked with AMC on 10.5 not 10.6 !

Hey, hows it going. This is first post on here :P

 

 

 

 

I'm looking to install both Final cut and Avid on my Snow Leopard installation and came across this thread. I'm a little concerned because my graphics card isn't being displayed at all inside the mac. This, as you'd imagine, would have massive problems when trying to video edit.

Can someone explain how I can get it to recognize my 8800gts 640meg card so that I can run open GL, and then hopefully learn AVID/Final Cut Pro?

 

 

 

 

Thanks a lot :P

You should ask in the Graphics Cards section!

but I have AVID fully working on my Hackintosh but its version AMC 4.0.5 on an EVGA X58 SLI i7 920 with an HD4850

Can run dual monitors using DVI and DVI. Confirming it works well with my set up but its very polished

AMC 4.0.2 would not run at all and I surfed AVID's Forum to find NO IT'S NOT compatible with Snow Leopard 10.6.2

Hello, I've tried to run a cracked Avid Media Composer 4. It crush with Bus Error. Avid may start only if I disable Quartz Effects (hold G and O during launch). Therefore it could works without real time 3D only. This is a some problem with a Graphic driver for sure. My card is NVidia Quadro 3500, NVinject 1.2.

 

Please if someone has successful experience with MC (cracked or legal) on Hackintosh with any NVidia card, let me know what graphic driver you use.
