Redeem the Pro Apps Bundle for Education
After you’ve purchased the Pro Apps Bundle for Education, redeem the five content redemption codes you received in an email from Apple, then download the apps in the bundle.
The Pro Apps Bundle for Education includes Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, Logic Pro and MainStage — all optimised for macOS and the latest Mac computers and Apple displays.
After you’ve purchased the bundle, you’ll receive two emails from Apple about the bundle in one to three business days. The first email contains a password that you use to open a PDF, which is attached to the second email. The PDF contains separate codes that you use to redeem and download each app in the bundle. The PDF also contains the licence agreement for each app.
It’s important to redeem all five codes so all the apps in the bundle are associated with your Apple Account. That way, you can update the apps in the future and install them on your other Mac computers.
If you’ve purchased the Pro Apps Bundle for Education pre-installed on a Mac, you won’t receive content redemption codes. Instead, you will have to adopt the apps.
Redeem your codes in the App Store on your Mac
To redeem the codes from the PDF you received from Apple, make sure to sign in to the Mac App Store using the Apple Account that you want to associate with the apps. After you’ve successfully redeemed a code for an app in the bundle, the app automatically downloads from the Mac App Store.
On your Mac, go directly to the code redemption page of the App Store. Or you can:
Open the App Store.
Click your name or the sign in button in the sidebar.
Click Redeem Gift Card.
If prompted, sign in to your Apple Account.
Enter one of the 12-digit codes from the list of content redemption codes provided in the PDF you received in the email from Apple, then click Redeem. You can’t use the camera on your Mac to redeem these content redemption codes. You have to enter the codes manually.
If prompted, sign in to your Apple Account.
While the app that you just redeemed downloads to your Mac, click Redeem Another Code, then enter the next code.
Continue until you’ve redeemed the codes for all of the apps in the bundle.
Your Pro Apps are ready to use after you’ve downloaded them to your Mac.
If you haven’t received the emails with the content redemption codes
If you haven’t received the content redemption codes for your order in one to three business days from when you placed the order, or you need Apple to resend the emails, contact the Apple Online Store at (800) MY–APPLE (800–692–7753). You’ll need your order number, which begins with the letter W and is located at the top of the Order Acknowledgement email. That email includes “We’re processing your order” in the email subject line in case you need to search for it.
If you can’t redeem a content code
Verify that your Mac meets the minimum system requirement for the app whose code you want to redeem:
Choose Restart from the Apple menu to restart the Mac.
Sign out, then sign back in to the App Store on your Mac:
To sign out, choose Store from the App Store menu bar, then choose Sign Out.
To sign back in, click Sign In at the bottom-left corner of the App Store window, then sign in to your Apple Account. Use the account that you want to associate with the app.
Try to redeem the code again. When you enter the code, make sure you enter the correct letters and numbers. Some letters and numbers can look alike.
If you need to install or reinstall the apps that you’ve already redeemed
In the App Store on your Mac, click your name in the bottom left-hand corner, or click Sign In if you’re not already. Sign in to the Apple Account you used to redeem the bundled apps.
Locate the purchased app you want to install or reinstall, then click
