HT5794 why cant you upgrade from logic pro 9 to x

not fair

People should stop whining about that.
Apple stated it a while a go that it's the new AppStore policy.Idem with iWork and pages and all.
Now apps are all the price of upgrade and voilà. That's it.
I read that comment many hundred times and can't understand how people can continue to ask for this. It's a 200$ upgrade already.
Also, a few persons mentionned contacting apple and received a refund for logic 9 when bought within a few months of logic X release.
So that's totally fair.
Cubase 750$ and pro-tools 699$ that is unfair, I'd own them too if I could afford it.

    I just upgraded from Logic pro 9 to  Logic Pro X on my computer, but all my EXS24 libraries are missing all of a sudden. How do i Get them back???
    I have checked both the resource folders, and made backups from Logic pro 9, but its not recognizing them, or saying that they're missing a bunch of samples.
    What do i do?

  • Where can i find the upgrade from logic pro 7.1.1 to 7.2?

    Hello there.
    Is the upgrade from logic pro 7.1.1 to 7.2 still available out there somewhere? I know I'm a bit behind the rest of the world but financially I'm taking the 'do the best with what you can' route!
    Never used logic before, moving up from garageband and cubase sx cos everyone says it's a better program.
    Many thanks,
    GDx

    Hi
    If I remember correctly, the 7.2 update was a "Paid for" update, with a new dvd.... so you are most likely out of luck.
    The good news is that Logic Pro is pretty cheap on the Appstore

  • How do I update/upgrade from Logic Pro 8 to 9?

    How do I update/upgrade from Logic Pro 8 to 9?

    There is no update, you have to purchase Logic 9 from the App Store, it's $199, which is close to the price of an update.
    Warning, if you do purchase Logic 9 from the App store it will download 2GB of additional patches/sounds/loops...etc. This is for first time buyers so their App Store Logic will have some basics to work with before trying to download the additional 20+GB of loop/instrument data. If you have a full installtion of Logic 8 it's possible the 2GB of data Logic initially downloads will mess with the instruments and sounds you've been using, past projects may not load properly. Just something to be aware of.

  • Can i upgrade from Logic PRO 7 to Logic express 9 (upgrade version)?

    Hello
    I was about to upgrade from Logic Pro 7 to Logic Studio 9 when i noticed that all the fetures i need are actually now in cheaper Logic Express 9.
    So would it be possible to upgrade to Logic Express 9 from Logic Pro 7? or will it only upgrade from older versions of Logic Express?
    Many thanks
    Tom

    Hi,
    guess that's not possible. But i strongly recommend upgrading your Logic Pro 7 to Logic Studio. It's not that much more money, but i bet once you have the new Express version, you'll desperately miss some of the features you only have with Logic Pro/Studio.
    I would recommend to call apple support or ask a dealer to find the correct upgrade version.

    I lost my logic 8 pro serial number. I can't find the booklet that comes with the serial number. How can retrieve this? I upgraded from logic pro 7. I changed hard drives and now it keeps asking for the serial number. But I can't find it. Where can I request it? Thanks!

    If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

  • SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR LOGIC STUDIO-upgrade from LOGIC PRO 7

    I have been using LOGIC PRO 7 on my G5 1.8ghz Power PC G5 with 768 MB DDR SDRAM with no problems. I'd LOVE to upgrade to the new 8. I notice it said minimum req is 1.25ghz and 1gig of ram.
    Will I be able to run this on my current system for basic recording, etc. Do I REALLY need the 1.25 and 1 gig of ram? If i'm doing no more than 8 tracks live at a time-live instruments?

    Hi Mikey, First off they mean a G4 1.25 or faster. Your G5 1.8 should be fine. Second, the 768MB of RAM will be an issue. Fortunately RAM for your machine isn't that expensive. If I were you I'd load up with as much as you can. It will help you in all aspects of your computing, not just Logic. Check out the link below for some options.

  • Install logic 9 upgrade from logic 7  on macbook pro retina

    i bought a new MBP retina, (no disc drive) and want to install logic. my logic studio 9 is an upgrade from logic pro 7, and the 7 won't run on the new com.
    So how do I do this install?

    Could be you khave a corrupted Win 7 install file/files.
    Try downloading the Win 7 ISO for the version you have from here.
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/download-windows-7-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit- direct-download-links/
    Then burn that ISO to a USB or DVD, USB would be better.

  • Just a bit confused in regards to upgrading from Logic 5 - to Logic 7

    Hey all...
    So I was an avid Logic 5 user on an iBook G3... (or I had the "big box' of plat/gold - see how confused I am/was/is...?? HELP!!)
    SOmething happened and I had to wipe my hard drive on the iBook, and the new system I put on was OSX 10.3.9, and then when I re-installed Logic(x?) it just plain wouldn't run.... crashed all the time and sometimes never launch the app. When I bought it, I got it at Guitar Center and this was when emagic owned it. I have an XSKey and all the registration for it. So right when I thought I was getting somewhere, emagic sells it to Apple... blessing, but bittersweet, because I can't get anyone at Apple to help me out, other than saying I have to get the new one - and they will not run on my current computer.
    SO HERE IT IS; I have finally decided to ditch the iBook G3 and trump up to the basic G5 Tower, load it with at least 2GB's of RAM - and then I figured I could just buy the; Logic Pro 7 Upgrade from Logic Pro 6 or Logic Plat/Gold 5, 6 for $299.00 (and from what I have been reading on here also get the Logic Pro 7.2 Crossgrade for $49.00...)
    IS THIS WHAT I NEED...? Like I said before I have all the stuff from the Logic (emagic) and know its one of the above mentioned needed for the upgrade!...? And will this then bump me to Logic 7 Pro - Not Logic Express.....?? And is this a good thing or......
    I apologize for being so confused - but I'm so willing to get back into Logic that I'm actually buying new hardware, just to get back into producing!!
    The guys at the Apple store are helpful - but all look cross-eyed when I begin asking Logic (or any Pro application) questions.......
    Thanks in advance all!!

    The Big Box was Logic Silver (not Gold or Plat). That's a steeper upgrade.
    If what you bought was the 'Production Kit' that included an a/62m interface, then you have Gold.
    If what you truly have is Gold 5, you will get Logic PRO 7 for the $299. I don't know if that now includes 7.2 or if that's still an extra $49 (being that they're going to charge Shake users who paid 3k on it $49 while they drop the price to $500, I'd expect 7.2 to still cost ya).

  • Why won't FireFox 4 play mp3 files that have been created since the FF update? It will play mp3 files created prior to the FF update. All of the mp3 files have been created in the same manner, as bounces from Logic Pro 9. Thank you.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • Why cant i upgrade my 17in macbook pro (s/w 10.6.8)to mavericks

    why cant i upgrade my 17in macbook pro (s/w 10.6.8)to mavericks?  I do not know what month it was built.  I bought it as a refurbished by Apple a few months ago.

    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.      
    Application Compatibility
    Applications Compatibility (2)
    Do a backup before installing.
    Your iMovie and iPhoto data should be good, but you will have to upgrade the applications.
    If you decide the upgrade isn't worth it, you can share Mail, Calendars, and Contacts running Snow Leopard. Based on my experience, I don’t recommend syncing Contacts - created a lot of problems with duplicates. If you have 2 step verification enabled on your Apple ID, you will need to generate an application specific password for Mail, iCal, and Address Book. Apple ID - Manage
    Snow Leopard iCloud - Address and iCal
    Snow Leopard iCloud –  iCal

  • If y have logic pro 9, why i don't can upgrade to logic pro x ?

    if y have logic pro 9, why i don't can upgrade to logic pro x ?

    You can, for $199 - which is cheaper than all the previous updates.

  • Is there an upgrade path from Logic Pro 9 to Logic Pro X?

    I convinced a friend to purchase Logic Pro 9, not knowing version X was about to be released 3 weeks later.   Even though upgrade path always crosses my mind prior to a software purchase, I was not worried - this was Apple.  Now it's looking like there's not a built-in upgrade path at all (as there IS with just about every other software company I have bought from).  Is this for real?  This friend has version 9, and I have version X.  So this friend learned everything there is to know about version 9, then I bought version X not even knowing we were out of synch on versions.   We were hoping to work on songwriting together, but paying $200 again is out of the question.  I notice that the file save under version X has extension .logicx, so is it even possible to exchange files?

    my friend with Logic Pro 9 can send files to me but they cannot accept files created with Logic Pro X.
    Which is exactly what i said earlier....
    You can open Logic Pro 9 projects in LPX but not the other way around.
    Apple wouldn't even give me a refund on Logic Pro X (purchased just 3 days ago), which is useless to me now.
    There are no refunds from the App Store... That is what you agreed to when you purchased a license for LPX.
    Your choice is simply for your friend to update to Logic Pro X or use the audio stem process I outlined earlier (Not something i would recommend doing for any period of time)... or spend even more money on purchasing two copies of a different DAW...  and taking the time to learn them and spending time converting over what your friend has already created... and hope your friend hasn't been using the internal plugins found only in Logic Pro... otherwise you have even more work to do...
    The reality is, the sensible solution is simply to upgrade LP9 to LPX for $200... (and think of it as the upgrade price even though you can buy the full version for the same amount but that really doesn't matter does it?) Less outlay, less time lost and less hassle, but as always the choice is yours...
    I have never, EVER, encountered a software company that treated customers that way.
    Then you haven't been in the computer business that long......
    Seriously though, you haven't been treated that badly...
    You bought LPX at a price that is basically a steal.... and your friend bought LP9 at the same 'deal' of a price.. compared to what Logic Pro used to cost ($1000)
    You can 'upgrade' from LP9 to LPX for $200 which is much cheaper than it used to cost to upgrade from , say LP8 to LP9... and the same price as it cost to upgrade to LP9 via the App Storeprior to the release of LPX
    The alternatives at this stage would cost you much more money......time.. and hassle..
    The only things that truly frustrating is the timing of your friend's purchase of LP9... For that he has my sympathies but it happens... Some people who bought Logic Pro 9 within a month of Logic Pro X being released were given refunds on the LP9 purchase if they bought LPX... Your friend just left it way too late.... Apple has since stopped such refunds.... and you didn't do the research you should have done before you jumped in and bought LPX... Unfortunate but sadly true.
    Again, you and your friend have my sympathies for whatever they are worth... but at least the obvious solution is still cheap compared to what the alternatives could cost you now and in the past!
