App Store doesn't recognize my purchased Final Cut Pro app

In February, my logic board was replaced, and the App Store sees my laptop as a new computer, so it's no longer recognizing some (but not all) of my purchased apps. I purchased Final Cut Pro via the App Store in December. The installed version runs fine, but the App Store won't update it to the latest version (10.2). The "Buy" button in the App Store says "Install," but when I get an error message that reads "Final Cut is already installed on this computer. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu to check for available updates." But there isn't a Software Update command in the Apple Menu anymore -- just a link back to the App Store, which won't help me! How do I get the App Store to let me install the new version?

Should I delete any/all copies of the app and then download a fresh copy from the App Store?

  • App store doesn't recognize already purchased apps

    I had to rebuild my computer. After going to the App store, and after logging in it doesn't recognize I've already purchased a number of apps (including Mountain Lion, Pages, Keynote, etc.).
    In the past, after logging in it would say "Install" on the price button. Now it says the price (eg. $19.99) and then says, "Buy App" if I click it.
    I need to know how to download these various apps without having to repay.

    I had to rebuild my computer.
    Try using Mountain Lion Recovery to reinstall OS X.
    That will also reinstall the App Store for you.
    If you have anti virus software installed, disable that before downloading apps from the App Store.
    And try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • There is a fault with the app store, and I can't download Final Cut Pro X.

    I'm having trouble downloading FCPX from the app store, which I need for a project asap! The apple support and express areas don't seem to be functioning properly. Any ideas? Many thanks

    What happens when you try?

    I lost all my data when upgrading my iPad to iOs5.  App Store doesn't recognize that I already purchased pages.  What can I do other than repurchasing?

    It shows "You do not have any purchased apps available to download"  Can I show apple the credit card receipts for apps purchased from them?  How would I find any previous account login info?

  • Mac App Store Doesn't Recognize Apps

    I have a Macbook Pro which is almost three years old.  Applications like iLife and iWorks were installed on the computer long before there was the Mac Ap Store.  These apps, and others on my computer, do not show up as Instaled in the App Store so I can't update them unless I use the old Software Update or the vendor's site.  I don't want to purchase the apps again but is there any way to "register" these apps so the app store knows they are on my computer?
    Thanks,
    David

    I have iLife 11 that I purchased on disk that is installed, but the App store doesn't recognize any of the iLife apps as being installed.
    Everytime I run GarageBand it states there is a new version, but then Software Update says everything is up to date once it is run.
    I have GarageBand 6.0 (427.17) at the moment, and the newest right now is 6.0.5
    I haven't been able to update it.
    Any thoughts on this issue?

  • I purchased final cut pro X from app store, but it doesnt allow me to update to latest version...

    I purchased Final cut pro X from app store, but when I try to upgrade the software I get a message saying that it was not purchased thru app store. Can anybody help me please?

    Hi Pablo..
    Make sure you are using the same Apple ID and password you used to originally purchase Final Cut X.
    If you are running Lion v10.7 as your profile suggests, installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you which may help.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed and try to update the software.

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.

    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases. Do you see Final Cut Pro X listed?
    If so, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete Final Cut Pro X. Then, go to the Mac App Store and download Final Cut Pro X for free.
    If you don't see it in Purchases, see if it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 If it doesn't work, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact
