Installing PS3 on a new MBP with Lion 10.7 - got a little problem

so my old MBP was destroyed
my external hard drive (which had PS3) has old firewire ports, and cant connect to my new MBP
i have the .dmg files for Creative Suite 2
but those cant install on my new computer
i downloaded my PS3 update
but that wont install without the PS2 installed
what can i do?

now i can't even get to my ORDER HISTORY page to get the eff'ing serial number. i'm getting this message when i try to go to My Support:
Error processing your request
We're sorry, we encountered an error processing your request.
Please try your request again. If you continue to receive this error, please report it using our Customer Service form....
but its not like i can actually find an email or phone number to call
and then i try to go to the HELP section and it just gives me a bunch of pull-down menus that don't even lead anywhere
this is becoming seriously irritating

How can I install iWork '09 on new MacBook with Lion?

I have an install DVD for iWork '09 (9.0.3), and I've been running iWork on my iMac for several years without a problem, even after upgrading to Lion. Now I have a new MacBook Air with Lion preloaded and am trying to install iWork on the new machine. I was able to install from the DVD using drive sharing, but when I try to open Pages, Numbers or Keynote, I get a message that says "Pages cannot be opened because of a problem" -- presumably because I need to update iWork for Lion. After downloading the iWork 9.1 update, I tried to open it but get an error message that says "A newer version of Keynote has already been installed."
This doesn't make sense to me, since the version I installed from the DVD is definitely older. How can I update iWork to run on my new machine?
By the way, I tried just copying the programs from my iMac with AirDrop, and I get the first error message I mentioned above.

MN,
I don't know why the Drive Sharing idea didn't work. I can think of reasons that copying with AirDrop wouldn't work.
At some point you may just want to give up and purchase Pages using the Mac App Store. It's ridiculously cheap and easy.
I worry that you have so much inoperable iWork stuff on this computer that it needs a good clean-up, whichever way you decide to go.
Yvan Koenig has a script to do the purging of old copies of iWork files that you can run before you make any more attempts at installing iWork or any of its components. It the last item on this page as of this writing...

Have a New MBP with Lion preinstalled. Need Snow Leopard instead. Have time machine from old computer running Snow Leopard as well. PLEASE HELP!!

I have a brand new Macbook Pro with Lion preinstalled. I haven't even turned it on yet. I desperately need Snow Leopard because my music software is not Lion compatible yet. I also have a Time Machine backup from my old Macbook that is currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. How can I get Snow Leopard on my new Macbook Pro? Also, will Time Machine replace the applications on the new Macbook Pro with the older versions I have in the backup or how exactly does that work? I've been staring at the box for 2 days now worried I won't be able to use any of my software. PLEASE HELP ME!

It depends on the build of your machine; normally, no Mac can ever boot from a system older than what it came with. However, there are exceptions: right around the time the new OS is released, there may be some machines which will be able to run both OS's. Here is some information on software builds:

You may have to call Apple to figure out if you can use SL on yours or not.

New MBP with Lion at 97% battery only showing 4:57 mins...

After fully charging laptop to reach to 100%, I intentionally unplugged so I can see if it will start counting from 7:00 hrs. But to my disappointment, it only starts at 5:00 hrs downwards....right now I am only downloading updates from App Store.
I have read that quick battery drain issue is with Mountain LIon machines,for mine its a LION but still battery is draining pretty much quickly than expected.
Is anyone else experiencing same issue like me?
Is the 7hours battery life advertisement even for real???

It looks like Skype is basically running two CPU cores at nearly full throttle (well, 1.57 cores). That's bound to drain the battery pretty quickly. If you were not doing a high resolution video chat in Skype when you took that screen shot, then something is very wrong with it. Check and see if there's a newer version of Skype available that fixes the problem.

Installing FCS 3 (upgrade) on new MBP with Mountain Lion

Hi:
I just bought a new MBP with Mountain Lion installed. I have FCS3 upgrade, which I have now on my Mac Pro tower. I originally bought FCP version 1 back in 2000, so I've had it for quite some time.
When I insert the FCS install DVD into the MBP, the disc spins up and then spins down.... and nothing happens. Nothing opens, no dialogue box, not sign of any activity.
What am I missing here?

Open the finder window and click on the DVD to open it up. Make sure you have the first DVD disk...
I have FCS 3 (FCP 7) running in ML with no problems. I did a clean install of ML first... and installed the FCS 3 upgrade after that... But, make sure you install QuickTime 7 before you install FCS 3... FCS 3 with turn QuickTime 7 into the Pro version.

I installed LiveType from FCS 2 too...

Bought logic pro 9.1.7 online for new MBP with mountain Lion, but asked for serial number. Where could I get SN?

How can I get the SN for an online version of Logic Pro bought from AppStore?
Thanks!

good news. The trick is to delete the "logic pro 9" by dragging the App from Finder->Applications to trash bin, and re-doanload and re-install it again. Now it's happily downloading 19GB contents without asking for SN.
Thanks Pancenter for your message. This is is brand-new MBP with Retina display, and I didn't find or delete and reg file for logic. Simply delete the app under installation (not in the launch pad, see above) and re-install. It works for the 2nd try. It could be a SW integration bug.

Brand new imac with lion goes into kernal panic everytime i plug in my M-Audio Firewire 410 interface. Help??

PowerPC iMac 10.5 to new iMac with Lion

I will replace my iMac PowerPC running Leopard (not Snow Leopard) next month. Will I be able Migration Assistant to transfer files, applications, etc. to the new iMac? I have heard of problems if incompatible items are installed on the new macs with Lion. What should I do and NOT do?

Hello,
There are caveats migrating from PPC to Intel, I had no problems, but that was to 10.6.8 using Target Disk Mode on the PPC Macs, see Kappy's fine/detailed "A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs"...
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295
I'm not sure 10.9 can Migrate from 10.5.8, but to bypass needing a non-existant update for 10.5.8, you need a Firewire cable, likely a Thunderbolt to FW adapter, & boot the 10.5.8 Mac holding the t key, so it appears as a FW Hard Drive to the new one.

Is the fact that the new MBP with Retina display, has choppy scrolling in safari, a reason not to buy it? Can it be fixed through software?

I am debating buying a new MBP with Retina or a Macbook Air. I am looking for more info on wat people have been saying about lag in safari. Thanks!

Hey fredryan..did you end up getting the rMBP? I too am a little concerned about the screen performance while I wait for mine to ship. If you have gotten yours do you mind commenting on how Mountain Lion affected it? Is the lag still a big issue? Thanks!

Since one month I have a new Imac with Lion.

I installed Ilife'11: when I open IDVD it doesn't find the Idvd themes.
What is happening?

To get to the App Store, you need to upgrade the Tiger machine to Snow Leopard.

MBP with Lion, have Hardware test fault number: 4sns/1/40000000:ibor-9.166.

MBP with Lion, have Hardware test fault number: 4sns/1/40000000:ibor-9.166. CPU usage above 300% by kernel task. Runs good in safe mode?
Started when spilled liquid was discovered and cleaned. So expect this to have caused the issue. MBP works again, but very slow.
Any ideas? Logic board to be replaced maybe?

There is a bad sensor inside your MBP. That may only be the start of your problems. Bring it to a repair facility as fast as possible. Do not use the MBP and DO NOT put rice in it.
Baptisms are often the death knell for a MBP. Be prepared for a very substantial repair bill or contemplate a new purchase. I may be wrong with my bad news, and I hope so, but based on other experience, the odds are not in your favor.
Ciao.

How do i move my photobooth photos from my old mac to my new mac with lion os

have tons of photos in my older version of photobooth, how do i migrate them to new mac with lion os. looked everywhere but can't find an answer.

It's actually very simple. In your old AB under the file menu click "Export Address Book Archive to your desktop. Then using the new system log in to the old via network and move the file from the old to the new.
Then open the new AB and click import AB archive"
You're done

I currently have a mbp with two internal hard drives ( took super drive out) which for a video editor like myself is a dream I can edit video anywhere, my question can I order a new mbp with 2 internal flash drives?

I currently have a mbp 2.3 gighuz intel core 7 16 gig of ram with two internal hard drives ( took super drive out) which for a video editor like myself is a dream I can edit video anywhere, my question can I order a new mbp with 2 internal flash drives?

I wouldn't think so because the newer ones with Retina displays don't have an internal SuperDrive that can be replaced. Therefore the newer logic boards wouldn't have the two SATA/SATA Express connections on the logic board.
At least that was the case as of 2012. I've seen newer ones and they also don't have a SuperDrive.
