I have Final Cut 10.3.4 with MAC OS Catalina. Suddenly I can't open my FC. It says I need to update, but the update is not compatible with Catalina. What should I do?

How do use Final Cut 10.3.4 with MAC OS Catalina? If I need to upgrade, what do I do? I have a 2012 MacBook Pro.

Catalina can run 10.5.4. Log into the App Store with the Apple ID used to buy the application. Click the button in lower left and find the application on the Purchased page. You should be able to download it from there.

Thanks for your response, Tom. When I clicked on my purchased Final Cut at the Apple Store, it said I could download 10.6.3. But when I tried, it said "We could not complete your purchase. FCP cannot be installed on Macintosh because MacOs version 11.5.1 or later is required. (I have MacOS Catalina 10.15.7.) How do I get version 11.5.1 on my 2012 MacBook Pro?
