I bought a second hand G4 iBook with iLife 09 on it.  I have copied iLife to my new Macbook Pro. The applications would not open, so I did a software update and update all three applications, but they will still not open.  Can anyone help?

The seller should have given you the original disk so that you can reinstall as needed. But it likely was a single-user license (which really means single computer) so you can only have a copy on one computer at a time. If the seller didn't give you the disk he is probably still using the software on his new Mac. Your best option to get any of the iWork apps to use in OS X 10.6.6 or later is through the Mac App Store. You can then install them on any Mac you have that has access to the Mac App Store using your Apple ID.
