The _FREE key is intended to be use with Event Espresso Decaff, it will not allow updated to EE Regular.
On your development site you will need to run the updates manually by de-activating and deleting the current version of EE install (your events will not be lost as they are stored in the database)
Then uploads and activate that version on the dev site.
