Upgrade to 7.2 from 7.1

I just got a new macbook pro with 2.4GHz (intel of course)
I had previously had a powerbook G4 (powerpc of course)
I have Logic 7.1 I need the universal crossgrade
I have read EVERY other post similar to this and I understand that I need to buy the crossgrade for $50 or something along those lines.
My problem is, WHERE DO I BUY IT?
The only purchase options I see are:
full version "Logic Pro 7.2" for $999
"Upgrade from Logic Pro 6 or Logic Platinum/Gold 5 or 6" $299
"Upgrade from Logic Express 6, 7, or Big Box" $699
I'm getting very frustrated as you can probably guess, because everyone has talked about a $50 crossgrade but all I see are the ones above.
If you know anything about this and can direct me in a certain direction, it would be a great help.
I appreciate all your replies.

"Contact Apple Directly."
I did exactly that, three times in fact. By email, chat, and phone, I was told the same thing: no more $50 crossgrade. Having had the audacity to wait until my iMac gave up the ghost before buying an Intel MacBook to replace it, I now find myself frozen out of Apple's product line, victim to an incompatible combination of software and hardware +that Apple itself created and sold to me.+
Instead, they've inflated their asking price by more than 600% — from $49 to $299. This despite the fact that those who elect to pay this ransom will actually get less use from their upgraded L7.2 before L8 arrives than those who began using it months ago.
The bitterest irony is that no Apple representative I conversed with could even promise that we won't be charged $299 again should L8 be announced next week. The upshot is, you and I and potentially hundreds others could quite possibly end up spending $600 — two-thirds of the full retail price of Logic Pro — to get from L7.1 to 8, all in the space of a month or less.
Why Apple has chosen to treat its most loyal customers this way — customers who have, at a minimum, purchased a PPC G4 or G5 at some time in the past, a new Intel Mac sometime within the past 12 months, and at least one of Apple's own pro applications — is beyond me.

  • I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista but my iTunes will no longer work.  It says file can not be located when I try to play a song.

    I recently upgraded my operating system from Vista to Windows 7.  Ibacked up all of my music on an external hard drive before I reformatted my computer.  I have reloaded iTunes several times and attempted to transer my files back to my computer.  Everything appears to transfer but once I remove the external hard drive I get a message stated file cannot be located.  What am I doing wrong?

    I just posted a similar question -- five months later.  Did you ever find a solution?

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes.   Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

    Is this the note you are referring to:
    Not sure if this can help you.
    I checked my notes. They are stored here:
    MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
    xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
    If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
    If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
    If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.
    Thanks

    Application partitiion is what you will be upgrading from 3.1.(10 to 4.0(8).
    MP - maintenance partition is supposed to be 2.1.2 or above which is the same requirement for 3.1.x so, you will be good there.
    Pls. check the compatibility with the swtich code in this 4.0.8 Release Note link:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/fwsm/fwsm40/release/notes/fwsmrn40.html
    Pls. check the chassis system requirement in the above link.
    commands you will need are:
    copy tftp flash:image
    copy tftp flash:asdm
    falsh:image for OS and flash:asdm if you will be upgrading the asdm as well.

  • After upgrading to Mountain Lion from Lion, Mail, Safari and note need about five minutes to start.

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion from Lion, Mail, Safari and Note need about five minutes to start.
    After starting, Mail answers are very very slow. The same for Note. Instead of, sending mails is only a bit slower than before upgrading.
    In Safari, I choose Goggle as starting page in Preferences, but at every restart misses that starting page and the search strip says "Seek Google or instert an address".

    Well, I found the solution here in another thread.
    i just want to mention that the samw thing was happening also for the notes and the reminders apps!! (they quit unexpectedly!!).

  • How to upgrade my macbook pro from 10.6.8?

    i wish to upgrade my macbook pro from 10.6.8 what is the best way?

    If you wish to upgrade from 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) to 10.8.x (Mountain Lion), first make sure that your model meets the minimum hardware requirements (http://support.apple.com/kb/sp654) and then download ML by purchasing it from the Mac App Store.

  • I need to upgrade my MacBook Pro from 10.5.8 - where can I find Snow Leopard?

    I just upgraded my iPhone to os6 and now can't get into iTunes.  Can't upgrade iTunes because I'm still on 10.5.8.  Looks like I need to upgrade to Snow Leopard, then to Lion before I can buy Mountain Lion.  I can't seem to find Snow Leopard avaiable for purchase.  Can anyone help?

    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
    If you need to purchase Lion contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.
    Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
    Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Are my applications compatible?
    See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps - App compatibility and feature support for OS X & iOS.

    after upgrading my iphone ios from 5.1.1 to 6.0 wverythings seems to work fine.
    until today i was using my wi-fi network to download an application and suddenly wi-fi tirned off and when i went to the settings i cannot click on (on/off) wi-fi)
    it is ot highlighted.
    i searched the web for answers but all answers took me to a dead end.
    now i am stuck with iphone 4s with no wi-fi which is worth nothing.
    a normal nokia with wi-fi is much better.
    any help on how to fic my issue?

    Take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    If those 5 steps don't fix it, the iPhone will need service.

    I recently looked at this question with a customer who has been running 8.2 and needs to get some features in newer code. We decided that it made more sense to go to 8.4 than to 8.3.

  • I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. After a few weeks the HDD failed. New Leopard install reports: "insufficient memory". I need Tiger install disks so I can install

    I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard.
    After a few weeks the HDD failed. I bought a new disk, installed it and trued to install Leopard, but the  install fails reporting "insufficient memory".
    I assume the installation requires more memory than the OS actually needs to be able to run.
    I need Tiger install CD/DVD so I can install Tiger first and then upgrade to Leopard.

    Call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a reasonable fee, they will supply a replacement set of system discs (if available).
    The discs will be for the original version of the OS that was pre-installed when the Mac was manufactured.
    You need much more RAM than that.

    Is the SIM from the carrier the device is locked to?
    Has the device ever been hacked or jailbroken?
    Have you tried simply removing and re-installing the SIM?  What about replacing the SIM?

    I upgraded my macbook pro from OS Lion to OS Mavericks. When unplugged, it heats up exceedingly and the battery life is extremely short. What to do?

    Installation of the new OSX is very heavy hdd load, in addition spotlight reindexes all the files on your computer - it may be a few hours. If in the future will be the same macbook hot, you should contact your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    May be required to clean notebook cooling system.
    You can also install any monitoring utility sensors to your mac  such as Hardware Monitor  and look at the value of the temperature sensors.
