Import into Final Cut Pro for Mac from Final Cut Pro for iPad

You can use AirDrop or iCloud Drive to import a project created in Final Cut Pro for iPad.

Open Final Cut Pro on the iPad you want to transfer from, then do one of the following:
- In the Projects screen, select a project in the list on the left, tap above the video preview, then tap Final Cut Pro for iPad Project.
- With a project open, tap in the toolbar, then tap Final Cut Pro for iPad Project.
If you want to include all the video clips, audio clips, and photos you imported into your project (even if you haven’t added some of them to the timeline), make sure Include All Media is turned on; to export an offline project, turn off Include All Media.
Tap Export.
Tap one of the following options:
- AirDrop: Share wirelessly to a nearby Mac using AirDrop.
- Save to Files: Save the project to your iPad or iCloud Drive, and retrieve it with your Mac.
For more information, see the Final Cut Pro User Guide for iPad.
After the project file has finished copying, open Final Cut Pro on your Mac and choose File > Import > Final Cut Pro for iPad Project.
Note: This is the only way to import projects created in Final Cut Pro for iPad. You can’t open a Final Cut Pro for iPad project in Final Cut Pro on your Mac by double-clicking the project icon or dragging it to Final Cut Pro on your Mac.
In the window that appears, navigate to the location where you stored the project file you transferred from your iPad.
By default, AirDrop transfers appear in your Downloads folder.
Select the project file and click Import.
In the Save as Library window that appears, enter a name, then click Save.
The project is converted to a Final Cut Pro library and appears in the Libraries sidebar.

Note: If you import a project that contains a soundtrack included with your Final Cut Pro for iPad subscription, the soundtrack retains its clip name, role, duration, and position in the timeline. However, the soundtrack is imported as a simple AAC audio file that no longer dynamically adjusts to fit the length of your project.
