Can I transfer Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro to a new MacBook?

I'm currently running a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro and I'm about to upgrade to a new machine. My question is: Last time I bought a MacBook I chose to include the "Creative Software package" including Final Cut Pro, Logic X and so on.

Is that software locked to my computer, or will I be able to install and use it again on my next MacBook without paying again? I mean... I've already paid for the software.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 26.1

If I understand correctly, you bought the software together with the computer, right?

When this happens, one is usually invited to "Accept" the purchase into one's Apple account.


Open App Store application. Click on your account at the bottom left.

Do Final Cut Pro and Logic appear in the list of your purchases there?

If it is, then all is well, and you can download on the new computer when you get it.

If not, then you will need to see if you can still "Accept" the purchase, maybe you will need to contact App Store support, not sure.

(This is why I never purchase bundled software; if purchased separately it will become bound to your Apple id forever)
