Apple Updates Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, and iMovie

Apple on Thursday updated its Mac video editing suites, Final Cut Pro and iMovie, adding tools to ensure videos remain compatible as macOS prepares to drop all 32-bit app support. Motion and Compressor also received a similar update.

Final Cut 10.4.6 and iMovie 10.1.11 can now detect media files that may be incompatible with future versions of macOS after Mojave and converts them to a compatible format. Mojave will be the last macOS release to offer 32-bit compatibility, Apple warned developers at WWDC 2018 to give them plenty of time.
