Final Cut Pro X Background Rendering in OS X Mavericks Not Working? Turn Off App Nap.

December 24, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Final_Cut_Pro_X_App_Nap-4

One of the grand new features in OS X Mavericks is App Nap, which saves on power to extend battery life on MacBooks. One of the unfortunate side effects is that is kills background rendering in Final Cut Pro X and other apps that take advantage of background rendering.

To make background rendering work again, simply turn off App Nap. The process is simple.

  1. Right-click on the application.
  2. Choose Get Info.
  3. Check the box “Prevent App Nap.”
  4. Enjoy background rendering again.
