can't download Apps from appstore (final cut pro - en pause)

i had Mavericks. had to uninstall it because i needed to run powerpc applications.

so i did a clean install of snow leopard with the cd.

when i tried to download final cut from the app store, nothing happened. when i restart my computer, there's the final cut icon on the dock but will not load.

"command+click" on the icon and selecting reprendre(french for restart) won't work

before i installed mavericks everything worked fine! i need my old setup back!

Final Cut Pro X, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Clone your 10.6.8 setup to another hard drive with nothing on it using Carbon Copy Cloner.

Install10.9 back on your main hard drive.

Dual boot to 10.6.8 through Apple menu -> System Preferences with the external drive attached when you need a Rosetta application.

Generally speaking you should keep at least two copies of your data at all times.
