Do I buy final cut pro x again when I purchase a new MacBook pro if I already had it on my MacBook air?
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
MacBook Air 11", macOS 10.14
No need to repurchase. Just log into the App store with the same Apple ID you used to originally purchase FCP X and download it from there.

First, you don’t have to repurchase it. The best procedure when you sell a computer is to boot on an external drive, burn the system drive in the computer and install the OS but leave it uninitialized for the purchaser to complete how they like. If you don’t want to do that just remove all the applications on the system drive that were installed. Apple System applications can’t to trashed so there’s no danger there.
Really?! I don't have to spend another $300 to buy it again?!
No. You can install FCP X on any Mac that you purchased with the same Apple ID.
Just to add you can’t sell the computer with the software installed.
What do you mean by that?
If you sell your MacBook Air you cannot legally sell it with the FCP software installed on it.
Wow I did not know that. Thank you because I was thinking on selling my laptop but I did not know if I wanted to since it is an older model.
If I sell my laptop would I have to uninstall it? Would I have to repurchase it if I uninstall it?
Thank you for clearing it up for mw.
Thank you! I'll be sure to watch the video out.
