I have a 2010 imac with ilife 09 and a early 2011 MBP with ilife 11, how can i upgrade the imac using the mbp instead of having to buy ilife 11 from the app store for the imac, I did recieve discs with my MBP so I know i cant just go to the app store and redownload like you can with new MBP's.
So I already placed my order for my new iMAC. I have a MacBook (2006) with iLife 08.
My question is: When I get to transfer my MacBook info into my new iMAC, will i encounter any problems with my iLife files being that I have iLife 08, and the new iMac's come with iLife 09? The Time Machine transfer won't bring the new iMac software back to 08 will it?
I am considering purhcasing iLife 09 to upgrade from iLife 08 that came pre-installed on my early-2008 MacBook Pro, as I like the new iPhoto features, (the iLife app I use most frequently out of the entire bundle), but I was wondering if by doing so there is a chance I may lose any files.
For those that did the same 08 to 09 upgrade, did you lose an individual photos from your library, albums altogether, events, slideshows, etc.?
For those that didn't lose them directly in iLife/iPhoto, what about on the HDD itself, and vice versa?
long time reader, first time poster. I know this topic has been beaten to death - but I've read all the post and have not found an answer for my question.
If you have iLife 08 installed and just installed a new copy of iLife 09 - does the following happen?
1. iLife 08 gets removed. 2. All Data from iPhoto 08, iMovie 08, iDVD etc, gets transferred to the new application. 3. No Importing is required to move any of the data over the new version of the software. It just works as if you didn't even have iLife 08 in the first place.
I am thinking about upgrading to iLife 09. If I buy the discs and install, do they overwrite iLife 08 or will I then be able to choose between the two groups of applications?
mid 2010 iMac.hardware crashed, iLife didnt come back with computer =( i depend on that i found the iLife.zip file on my computer but how can i recover it?
To anyone who has bought iLife 11, how did you upgrade from 09? I cannot seem to find any documentation regarding this procedure on Apple's support site.
Do you first have to uninstall 09 and then install 11 or can you do an in place upgrade? By this I mean, can you simply install iLife 11 over top of iLife 09?
I did a spotlight launch of imovie and i clicked on it, and imovie 08 is still in my system. Would it be safe to delete the imovie 08/ idvd 08/garage band 08 so it does not interfer with 09. I just dont wanna loose any of my info, i just dont want both on the system, getting confused with them opening up.
When the recent ilife 09 (8.0.1) update appears in Software Update people of both ilife 09 and ilife 08 reported that it appeared for them. My question is, is it safe to apply this update for those who are on ilife 08?
I've just checked my Software Update and found the ilife 09 update, and I don't have ilife 09, I only have ilife 08.
So I bought Leopard family-pack and installed on 4 Macs (and de-installed one). All installs were "clean installs". And all yielded Leopard WITHOUT iLife products (iPhoto, iTunes, etc.).
Now people tell me that they also did "clean installs" and iLife was present afterwards.
The only difference I can judge is that I used a family pack whilst the others used a "single licence" pack.
hey i have just bought a refurbished apple imac and i was looking for the i'life11 pacake that should come with this mac it contains iphoto, imovie and garageband, but i can not find it anywhere on the system i have done a system software update but still no sign of it. the ilife software is however registerd to this computer :
I recently had my iMac repaired independently, with upgrade to Mavericks from Lion. I am trying to discover if my Apple purchases/upgrades have been recorded online seeing as of today I cannot find my printed Apple receipts or access much of the information/data which was not correctly migrated to my iMac. I would like to recover iDVD if possible.
Here is my dilemma. IMAC with OS X 10.6.8 I have about 200 .jpg images from my vacation that I wish to put onto a CD-R and send to a friend. Sounds simple, but I can not do it. From all of the information I have read I should insert the disk, and drag the files onto the CD icon. But the CD icon is no where to be found. When I insert a CD a window opens "you inserted a CD. Choose an action from the pop up window or click Ignore" It appears that the best option is to open DISK UTILITY. If I do not open DISK UTILITY the CD Icon does not appar on the desktop. I have opened DISK UTILITY and tried all sorts of options. It has a burn option and is says select and image to burn. But the folder with the pics and the files are grayed out.
I have a lot of old VHS but my VHS reader is broken. There is some HW and SW product somebody can suggest to use with my iMac in order ti perform the tranfer of the contents?
We recently switched from a a PC to a Mac due to a crash. when we were trying to sync old info from our iPods and iphones onto the iTunes it does not allow us to do so. It restricts us from transferring info. How are we supposed to do so?
Just got a new IMac and I want to move my itunes file from my PC to the Mac so I can synch my Iphone with it.What is the best method? I use Lion version 10.7.
I have keynote,pages and numbers on my macbook.Do I have to purchase them aga
in or can I transfer these programs to my new mac desktop.These purchases are not showing up in my app store probably because I had them on my mac as a trial and just put a key in to buy them.
I'm awaiting my new iMac (should come today!) I've opted for an SSD drive and an ATA drive. Should I re-install all my applications to the new SSD drive rather than using the migrate to a new computer feature I've used in the past?
I have an old Mac, an LC. Back then, USBs were not even around yet nor were CDs for that matter. However, the information on it (max 40 Megabites, not gigs) is very valuable to me and I woul like to know how to transfer it to the iMac with Lion. It does have an s-video port and I remember connecting a modem to it at one time. Most data was transferred using 3.5 inch diskettes back then.
