How do I update Final Cut Pro?

Not too long ago, I purchased Final Cut Pro for $300. Since I updated to Yosemite, Final Cut won't open anymore because it lacks the update. I checked the App Store for updates, but Final Cut was not available. How do I update it without buying it again?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.2.x) , Yosemite

To update FCPX, or any app purchased from the App Store, launch the App Store application.

Under the Store menu, log in to your App Store account.

Then give it a few minutes and go to the Updates section to update FCPX and all the other apps that need it.


If you still don't see FCPX listed, go to your Applications folder, move the FCPX app from there to the Trash.

Then in the App Store application, go to the Purchases section. There you should find FCPX listed with an Install button to its right.

Click the Install button.
