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
For Yosemite you need the latest version of FCPX.

Use the search-box in the AppStore, type 'Final Cut Pro'…-
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.
Still nothing available. I don't know if this helps at all, but I have FCP version 10.1
AAre you logged into the App Store with the Apple ID used to purchase it? Does the application appear on the purchases page.
Did you move FCP X to some other place on your hard drive? If it doesn't reside in your Applications folder, the AppStore app most likely won't find it.
Wait. There it goes. Thanks BenB! You were a big help!
Sorry...but i like to check something else. I actually purchase FCP 10.0.7 but recently i did a upgrade of my OS to yosemite. FCP can't use anymore so i went to my purchases in app store and install FCP but the version is 10.2.1 the lastest version right? So do i have to pay for this installer?
The update is free
thanks a bunch
How do I update Final Cut Pro?
