Q: If i use different a iCloud account but the same computer, will my projects be lost?

If i use different a iCloud account but the same computer, will my projects be lost? I downloaded the trial version to my friend's computer with her iCloud, and now it has expired and my project wasn't ready yet. If I sign in with my iCloud on my friend's computer and buy FCPX, will my project be there? And if not, if I buy the programme with my friend's iCloud account, is there any way I could move it to my computer later? I wouldn't want to buy a 300€ app just for my friend..

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012)

    TThe libraries are separate from the application. What you signed in for the trial is quite separate from what you use to sign in for purchasing. However once you've purchased with one Apple ID that's the one you always have to be signed in with to receive any updates. The application and the like Barrie's don't actually care what you're signed in with in iCloud.
