Can I take ilife 08 off my mac??

Hi ya'll
does anyone know if you can take ilife 08 off my macbook and put it on my imac (which is about three years old and running ilife 05 i think)?
The story is we were just given the imac and my macbook was the main computer and ilife 08 is a good way to look after photos and stuff. But i want to make the imac the main computer and swap everything from the macbook to the imac. Problem is the ilife software that came with the imac is totally useless compared to what I'm used to on the macbook.
So i guess I just want to swap the imacs ilife 05 onto the macbook and take the macbooks ilife 08 and whack it onto the imac.
I hope there's an easy solution
Cheers
nic

Sort of
the license allows you to run one copy of each so it does not matter which machine you run iPhoto '08 on and which you run iPhoto 5 on
The problem is that you can not just move it - you need to install it for it to work right and your MB disks will not install on your iMac - do you have the iLife '08 disk or just the system restore disks?
If you have the iLife '08 disk then you can simply install it on your and remove it from your MB (although unless you have the iLife 5 disks you have the same installation issue with it)
It may turn out that simply purchasing iLife '08 for your iMac is the best and easiest and will give you the same iLife packages on both machines - which you probably will end up wanting

How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro and go back to using Snow Leopard

How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro because it has too much problems with the new operating system, I have talked to Apple support for both computers and still nothing happens I think they know that there's something wrong and they don't know how to fix it are there working on fixing it. So how can I put snow leopard Mac on my computer so that it works every time, there's a lot of good features in Lion but there's a lot of bad features and especially when it comes to turning on your computer and the memory that it has held so if one item is missing then it doesn't work and you have to reboot the computer to get it to work but I still like my Mac.

I have audio books on my ipod, but when I hook it up to my computer they don't show up so I can't take them off or anything. Now I am out of space. How do I get them to show up on the itunes sync screens?

I have audio books that are on my ipod touch, but when I hook it up to my computer to make changes they don't show up. I can't add new music, because it keeps telling me I am out of room. When I go to the book tab at the top it doesn't show any so I can't take them off. How do I get them to show up?

iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
Authorizing a computer does not cause media to magically appear.
Media is only where the user puts it.
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

You can share the same Apple ID in
Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
But for all other Apple services like:
FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

I bought an album on my iTunes app, but now i can't take it off my phone?

More specifically, i bought the michael buble christmas album on my iphone 5s using ios 7, and now that christmas is over i don't want the music there anymore. it's not in the playlist that i have set to sync to my phone, i've been to settings and turned off showing all the music. i don't want to completely delete it from my library because i'll eventually want it again.
everytime i sync my music to my phone, it reappears after i go through and delete them one by one in my phone's music app. i don't want to have to do this every time i sync new music onto my phone. how can i take it off?

You could try emailing iTunes support, giving them your order number, etc. or you could just take the hit and pay the 99p. I know what I would do.

Hi Beth, welcome to the discussions!
Might be a good idea to also post over in the iPhoto forum if you haven't tried this yet as this is a common topic on their boards.
You may be able to get your iPhoto library back by rebuilding it. I've done it, but's it's been a long time, so don't want to mislead you on anything. The guys over in the iPhoto forum are real experts and should have some fixes for you.

Hi _em24,
It sounds like you are having an issue with the upgrade to your iPhone’s version of iOS, a frustrating situation to be sure. Let’s see if we can get you back up and running.
For basic troubleshooting of upgrades, and assuming you are using iTunes to do it, I would suggest using the steps in this article -

If not using iTunes or the above do not produce the desired result, use the steps in this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

I created a passcode on my iPhone 5s. Now I can't take it off.

I created a passcode on my iPhone 5s. Now I can't take it off.
Where it says "Turn Passcode Off" It is grayed out...

If you have a corporate Exchange account set up on your phone, the administrators can enforce a policy that requires a passcode to be used. If that's the case, you will not be able to turn the passcode off until you remove the Exchange account from the device. If you re-add the account, you will be forced to set a passcode again.

I put a vacation alert on my text and can't take it off.

I put a vacation alert on my iPhone 4 text and can't take it off. Help!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My friend put a password on my ipod and i cant get in how can i take it off?

My friend put a password on my Ipod and I dont want to restore it but want the password off. He wont tell me what he put it as and has probly forgot by now. I am wondering how to take it off. I am running an I touch software Ver 4.2.1. I can get anywhere on it and know my way around my apple products well but cant seem to find out what to do on this problem. Please help.

If you were able to remove a pascode - what good would using a passcode do? None - that's what good it would do. You cannot remove a forgotten passcode.
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad/iPod.
I assume that the concept is the same on the 2nd gen iPod.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
This will tell you how to restore
iTunes: Backing up, updating or restoring iOS software
If you cannot restore that way, you may have to use recovery mode
iPad: Unable to update or restore

How can i get software off my mac laptop that was put on there by accident ?

how can i get software off my laptop that was put on by accident

Either use the uninstaller provided by the developer or, if there is no uninstaller, simply trash the software - be aware that some auxiliary files may remain, depending on the software.
What type of software is this anyway?

Can i take music off of my ipod and put it in itunes using icloud?

My computer crashed in august. My itunes recovery disks failed and so did my attempt to recover music from my computer. Now all my music is on my ipod and I would like a way to take that music and put it in itunes on my new pc. Does anyone know if icloud can help me with this problem?

You can re-download songs you have already purchsed from iTunes one-by-one if you need to. There is no way to mass-download your entire library though, and this only applies to songs purchased through iTunes. There is no way to upload all of your music to iCloud. The iTunes Match service for $25 per year allows you to store your music in the cloud, but for you I think it's already too late. I don't think you can send all your music to iTunes Match directly from your iPod.
I would recommend you find an iPod manager program you can use to copy the music off the iPod directly. A quick Google search should reveal plenty of options.
