Will OS X Mavericks be free for the long haul?

I ask this question because the upgade is free right now; unfortunately because of Pro Tools, I cannot upgrade since they are not compatible at this time.  Which *****, by the way.  My question is just whether the upgrade will continue to be free.  I would have for pro tools to release an update compatible with Mavericks and then it would no longer be free.

Jorge ~ Welcome to the Support Communities. According to Apple, they have begun "a new era of personal computing software where OS upgrades are free.” (Source)
...New eras tend to last a long time.

  • Bought iMac in October 2013, will the upgrade for Mavericks be free for me?

    We just bought the new iMac from www.apple.com. When Mavericks is possibly released later this month, will that OS update be free for recent iMac purchases? I realise this may have the Osborne Effect, so please feel free to ignore. Learned about this effect from CBC just this morning, so I'm trying to use it. 
    Thank you!

    Apple has not announced information on the release date for Mavericks or information regarding free upgrades and the time of purchase requirements for computers.  All we, as fellow users, can say is wait until Apple releases that information.
    If past behavior is any indicator, purchases within 30-days have been given the codes for free updates, and at any rate, the updates have only cost $20 (US), not a significant amount.

  • TS2755 When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy. I'll never buy another if I can text using SMS or MMS

    When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy if you like texting family and friends. I'll never buy another one if I can't text using SMS or MMS.  Is there any hope for a patch or new operating system to fix this issue, or an app to use with iPad Air

  • Is it true you can get your iPod fixed for free for the first time

    I want to fix my ipod and my cousin said that they fix it for free for the first time so i wanted to ask you

    No. The will replace your iPod at no cost if within the warranry period and the iPod was not abused. I wonder where everybody gets that one-time replacement.  It seems somebody says that once a day here.

  • Will there be support in CS4 for the JVC GY-HM700 files?

    will there be support in CS4 for the JVC GY-HM700 files? Of course without rendering neccessary?

    I own a HM100, which uses the same EX1 codec.  The difference is the HM100 allows you to choose between a MOV and MP4 wrapper.  The MP4 wrapper works great in Premiere CS3 and CS4.(just like the EX1)
    The HM700 in stock configuration, only saves in the MOV wrapper, which does not work with CS4.  You have to buy the Available with optional SxS Media Recorder to have the HM700 save in .MP4. 
    Now there is a codec you can buy - it is not free- that allows you to view the MOV files.  I am not sure that will make it work with CS4.

  • Will PSE10 process raw/nef files for the nikon D800

    Will PSE10 process raw/nef files for the nikon D800

    Not directly.
    You have to download the FREE Adobe DNG Converter (version 7.3) and convert your NEFs to DNG, then PSE10 can make use of them

    Photoshop CC with CS3 will not open Nikon NEF files for the D610. Is there a fix for this? Fast Eddy

    I assume you're running Photoshop CC (not sure what you mean by "with CS3" unless that's the version you upgraded to CC from)

  • I have an iPad 1 and would like to buy the new iPad. Will Apple exchange my old iPad for the new one . I live in Saudi Arabia.

    I have an iPad 1 and would like to buy the new iPad. Will Apple exchange my old iPad for the new one . I live in Saudi Arabia.

    Apple does not take trade-ins. You'll have to look for a dealer that does, though you'll probably get more for the iPad 1 if you sell it yourself.

    When will Adobe CS6 InDesign be optimized for the retina MBP?

    Nobody knows even whether CS6 will get this or if there wil lbe a paid/ Creative Cloud exclusive 6.5 update or something liek that. You're asking teh wrong question to the wrong people. Even if we knew, we wouldn't be allowed to tell you anything until Adobe announces this officially.
