Welcome to a Pixel Film Studios TroubleShooting Lesson
Here is how to run the installers and manually install the plugin’s templates to the correct location.
Do this by opening up your Finder window.
Next, navigate to your Movies folder. If it isn’t already in your favorites, access your hard drive, Users, your root directory which should typically be your username, then Movies.
Enter the motion templates folder.
You will see your Effects, Generators, Titles, Transitions and Compositions folders.
Open up the downloaded plugin folder.
From there you will need to select the motion templates folder.
Then drag the templates to their corresponding folder.
For example, if you have an effect template, Drag the plugin into the effects folder.
If you have a generator template, Drag the plugin into the generators folder.
After manually installing go ahead and run the step 3 installer.
Restart Final Cut Pro (And Motion if that is installed and running)
Once reopened, your plugin will have been installed.
