I use Final Cut Pro X (version 10.5.2) on my old Mac Book Pro 13" from 2015 (with Intel).
I want to install it on my new Mac Book Pro 14" 2021 (with Apple M1 Pro).
Do I have to upgrade to a new version of Final Cut Pro - or can I use the same?

What OS are you using on the older mac?
You should use the current version, 10.6.4, on both macs, if you run Big Sur or Monterey, which your mac supports.
A library created in the newer version will not work in the old one.

OK - thanks for answering Luis Sequeria ! I am using Monterey on the new one and Catalina on the old one. So if I want to use Final Cut on both mac it is better to have the same version of Final Cut on both. And you recommend I use the current version. Do you know if there is a possibility to upgrade?
It’s better to download because you get the M series version (much more efficient than the old Intel version).
The download will not require any additional payment.
You should be good to go!! 😉
Thank you Smilin-Brian - thats a good advice 😀 ! Do you know a place for downloading?
The application is only available in the App Store. Just login with the Apple id used to purchase, click on your account at the bottom left and then click the cloud icon to download.
You simply upgrade it from the App Store where you bought it.
The current version will not run on Catalina. If you want the same version on both machines, copy 10.5.4 from Catalina to the new computer.
