Logic Pro X Trial Reset

LPX-Trial-Reset.sh

mv -v ~/Library/Application\ Support/.lpxuserdata ~/.Trash

mine keeps saying override in the terminal when I paste this code now.. I did update my laptop recently but is there anyway around this?

Just use the manual method I explained above.
1/ Open a Finder window
2/ Open your personal (User) folder
3/ There double click on the "Library" folder
(if you don't see the Library while in your personal folder click on"View" in the top (Finder-)menu ,there click on "Show View Options" and in the new small window click on "Show Library Folder")
4/ In the "Library" folder double click on the "Application Support" folder
5/ When you're in the "Applcation Support" folder type on your keyboard the keys Command-Shift-Dot together and hidden files are shown
6/ There delete the grey file called .lpxuserdata
7/ The Logic Pro Trial period is reset
8/ Type on your keyboard the keys Command-Shift-Dot together
and the hidden grey files are hidden again

Thanks again for all your help, I have tried these steps but when holding CMD-SHIFT-DOT it does not show the hidden files. Reckon Apple have patched this again?

You need to have downloaded Logic Pro trail and have opened it once, then close Logic Pro
and then go to "Application Support"(in the Library of your User-folder)and there type at the same time Command-Shift-Dot and you should see the hidden file .lpxuserdata (N.b. "Dot" = . and "Shift" is the normal Shift, not the permanent one)
On Sonoma 14.7.4 it works. I don't know about Sequoia.

I confirm newest version works

Apple is never gonna patch it

To expose the hidden files you need to do the same thing as you do when doing copy-paste but instead of pressing c or v you press dot

I keep wondering how is this glitch still working

Everyone report if it doesn’t work, i’ll help

No, for copy or paste you only press Command c or v . Here you press Shift Command Dot .

This does not work on mine, tried all permutations.

I have Discord if you need me to show it bud

What’s your username? I’ll add you.

The method to find the grey files works except for some reason theres no file for Final Cut Pro, just the Logic one. Do you guys think the .ffuserdata file for Final Cut is in an alternate location?

First download the Final Cut Pro "Free Trail" , install it, and open it once and close it again. Then the grey file will be there at the same location as the Logic file.

Thanks. I already had it downloaded and trial ran out. I'll try deleting the app and re-installing though, see if the file pulls up this time

So the file still doesnt appear but redownloading the trial gave me another 90 days

Wondering if we can do this to plug-in trials. For example, Fabfilter.

Just navigate into Macintosh HD disk and try pressing CMD+SHIFT+. at the same time to reveal all the hidden files. If that works just fine, then you are probably looking into the wrong folder for .lpxuserdata file.

hello its 25 june 2025 just put the line of code into to the mac terminal and the 90 days resets no need to do it manually

yeah

I've just updated my Mac to the latest version to sequoia 15.5 I've been using the the trail reset code for the last 3 months but today when I went to use it it did not work. I then tried to do this manually I went into folder and tried to find the lpxuserdata file to delete use the command shift dot to find the file. I couldn't find the folder anywhere have apple patched this or have they secretly moved the folder to somewhere else I'm not technically savvy enough to do this but love making music and cannot afford to buy logic can anyone help me.
thanks

yup, dunno where the data file is located as the application support folder has no files to show. hopefully someone knows something.

It works completely fine for me, your hidden files might not be shown, make sure that you press CMD + shift + dot. The file is located in library>application support. It's called .lpxuserdata and should be on the very top. @ErikPepperpot

hi doghead, I've followed these steps and gone into the user files and searched for the .lpx folder since I updated to the latest version 15.5 it stopped working prior to this it worked just fine. can I please ask if your on the same updated version.
before this update I had no problem locating the folder and deleting it and renewing the 90- day trail.
cheers

Wait, so you can find the file but deleting it doesn’t reset the timer? Try reinstalling logic if yes.

thanks robocopys this seemed to work today the problem was the library folder that wouldn't show up. this does still work appreciate your time everyone thanks

I confirm, it was the wrong library folder. I'm new to macos. Everything works
