Can I uninstall and reinstall iMovie without paying for it again?
My iMovie crashed recently, and I want to reinstall it again so that it will work. Basically, my iMovie '11 came with my OS X Mavericks update (so you could say it's preinstalled) and what I want to ask is this: can I open Launchpad and delete it from there (effectively removing it) and reinstall the app again from the App Store without having to pay for it again? In my "Purchases" section it says iMovie '11 has been installed.
Thanks!
my QT wont launch either the error i get there is: quick time failed to instilize error number -2095 please make sure quick time is properly installed on this computer
my apologies, clschofield58 , i accidentally linked you to the wrong post. here's the careful standalone install technique.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.0.3 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
switch off all background applications prior to the install (especially antispyware and antivirus):

will itunes launch after that?

Can I uninstall and reinstall "Pages" without losing files?
My Pages program may be, ...IS, ...corrupted. (Maybe by a disgruntled co-worker?) When I type a client's name, Pages automatically misspells it. Same with my own name, and perhaps with other words I've not yet discovered.
I suppose I should uninstall and reinstall to see if the malware is limited to Pages or if it's a system-wide problem. But I don't know how to do that. I've never uninstalled a program and do not know what might happen to various files, if anything.
I've tried fixing the problem in the automatic "spell check" function.
Ideas? Advice?
-JSPossibly, however, before you remove it try removing the preference files from the application These can be found in Users/yourname/Library/Preferences or /Library/Preferences. Since the autocorrect uses the dictionary found in Users/yourname/Library/Spelling, you may want to see if the dictionary was corrupted as well. If it is system-wide you should see it in other locations such as Numbers or if you are using Lion you will see it in Safari as well.
If you don't see the preference files also check both /Library/Application Support, and Users/yourname/Library/Application Support. -
Today while driving home from vacation i purchased and downloaded the new Nichleback CD, when i got home, i plugged my phone into my computer to update everything and it pulled up a message saying something like "this computer has recognized an iPhone that is in memory update, you will need to restore the phone" or something similar to that, it had a picture of the power cord plugging into iTunes on the screen and i couldn't get rid of it, so i had to plug it in and restore everything, when it was done i noticed that not only did i loose the new CD that i had just purchased today but i lost all of the music that i've purchased since the last update. How can i restore this music without purchasing it all again?
Media should be included with the backup of the computer that all users should be creating on a regular basis as part of basic computer/data maintenance.
In the event that you do not have a backup (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files)
If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content. They are not required to provide this opportunity.
It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes. On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer. Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this. -
When plugging in my iPhone to my PC, I get message "The registry settings used by Itunes drivers for importing and burning CD'd and DVD's are missing..." Can I uninstall and reinstall the iTunes app without losing all the tunes I've purchased/loaded
many thanks.
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

My computer broke and I got it fixed. It doesn't say that the hard-drive was replaced, but I can tell my data is gone, including Pages that I bought. Is there any way of getting that without paying for it again?
Or if you purchased Pages as part of iWork on a disk, reinstall from the same disk.
Best of luck. -
Iphoto wont start and deleted all of my photos. can i uninstall and reinstall iPhoto?
can i uninstall and reinstall my iphoto and will it fix the problem that i have with not being able to import and look at photos?
Of course you can uninstall and reinstall iPhoto - but it Probably will not help at all
But that is only a wild guess since no one has any idea what you have or what your problem is
Lets start with really simple basics - what version of iPhoto do you have? what recently changed or happened that might be related to this? What exactly does "won't start" mean? Why do you "think" iPhoto deleted all of your photos?
Do you have a good current backup? Note that iPhoto does not "delete" photos - users can but iPhoto does not
You sate numourour problems - please describe each and be concise without editorial comments
1 - iPhoto won't start
2 - iPhoto delete all of your photos
3 - iPhoto will not import photos
4 - iPhoto will not let you look at photos

I had to reset my phone and I only have one of my ringtones I had 4.. Why'd it delete 3 and not the last one and now I can't get em back without paying for them again!!! What the **** is up with that??
Yup, your question and Diane's answer helped me also. Tho' I had had problems before getting into the iTunes store I always managed to find a way. Today they had me blocked cold with the "Update to 10" advert no matter what I did. Other questioners are being told, incorrectly as it turns out, that they have to update their OS to accomodate iTunes 10 and upgrade to iTunes 10. I did the download which did not take up much more room on my crowded old hard drive and now I'm back in business.

Hello!!!
This realy works??Where is the backup of the media and other important files from the computer? Ultimately, it is the users responsibility to ensure that backups exists. Waiting until there is a problem to decide to do a backup is not smart. Would you wait until a fire started in your home to call the insurance company and inquire about homeowners/renters insurance????
In the event that no backup exists (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files):
If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.

Can I uninstall and reinstall CC?
Can I uninstall and reinstall CC whilst leaving Lightroom and Photoshop as programs on the PC?
I'm using Windows 8.
CC has a bug or something, as it just opens and freezes with a small red icon in the centre of the page.

I cannot get my ipad to sync with the computer, the message USB device not recognized keeps popping up. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes without an improvement.
Do you have firewall or anti-virus software running? If you do, it helps to turn it off. Otherwise, click on this link and see if it helps: http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
