**Final Cut Pro 10.6.7** has been released, and whilst there have been some users that have reported zero issues (although some that originally said they had no issues, have since had issues), there's many professionals that are reporting lots of unexpected bugs and crashes.

**Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro** has posted a [video here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiiasioJQ5Q) explaining.

There currently doesn't seem to be any common thread - people on Apple Silicon, Intel, Monterey, Ventura, etc. are all reporting different problems across all areas of the application - from Viewer going black to full system shutdowns.

For now, I would strongly suggest you stick with **Final Cut Pro 10.6.5** or **Final Cut Pro 10.6.6** until Apple resolves these issues in a future update.

We are keeping track of the bug reports [here](https://github.com/CommandPost/FCPCafe/issues/223), in our [Bug Tracker](/bug-tracker). We've reported several bugs directly to Apple.

I've personally been pushing **Final Cut Pro 10.6.7** pretty hard since it's release on a new, big and complex timeline, with heaps of Motion Templates, effects, stills and random footage. I've had to restart it a few times due to the Viewer going black, or strobing, and so far I've had one crash.

I've had to restart it a few times due to the Viewer going black, or strobing, and so far I've had several crashes on initial launch.

Additionally, **Final Cut Pro 10.6.7 (for Mac)** uses a newer Library format than **Final Cut Pro 1.1 (for iPad)**.

This means that if you want to use [Transfer Toolbox](https://transfertoolbox.io) to go from Mac to iPad, you should keep using **Final Cut Pro 10.6.6 (for Mac)**.

### Workarounds

We recommend sticking with **Final Cut Pro 10.6.5** or **Final Cut Pro 10.6.6** for now. Whilst there are SOME users that are reporting that 10.6.7 is stable, there's not enough improvements in that version to take the risk.

You can manually copy and paste the older Final Cut Pro application from a backup or another machine to your Mac. Final Cut Pro is a universal app, so the same binary works on both Intel and Apple Silicon.

Inside the Final Cut Pro application bundle is your unique App Store receipt - therefore it's only recommended use share your Final Cut Pro application with machines that are using the same Apple ID, otherwise it might trigger Apple's copy protection processes.

If you're already updated a library to Final Cut Pro 10.6.7's format, Final Cut Pro will have automatically made a backup in your backups folder prior to the migration. Alternatively, you can also export out a FCPXML and import it into an older version, keeping in mind that FCPXML isn't lossless (i.e some Title parameters don't apply correctly).
