FCP X Trial 10.4.8 supplemental content - qualifying copy?

Hey,


Have the trial version 10.4.8 of FCP X and wanting to install the supplemental content (i.e. fcp x sound effects).


Installed the FCP X 'Download Additional Content', that gave a file update of 6.2mb (just additional video codec, where 'more info' did not provide any reference to FCP X sound effects).


No folder is created for 'Final Cut Pro Sound Effects' in the Library\Audio\Apple Loops\Apple.


The FCP X sound effects package, from an App Store link, however displays the following message when trying to install the package:


Final Cut Pro X Supplemental Content can't be installed on this disk. A qualifying copy of Final Cut Pro was not found.


The library for my current work is on an external disk, however the FCP X is installed on my internal Mac (OS) HD.


Perhaps the trial version does not allow the sound effects to be installed?


Cheers

Some limits apply to the Trial version.

You found one.
