Can't Install Aperture

I can't install aperture from a previous app store purchase.  I originally purchased ver 3.4.5 and the store shows that I purchased ver 3.5.  I want to install 3.4.5 in my laptop with os lion.  ver 3.5 is not compatible with lion.

Are you not able to start aperture on your old macbook? If you are able to then you can retrieve your serial number by clicking on 'about aperture'
If not then it's a call to apple as the above posts suggest. I did when I lost mine, bear in mind though, they may ask for your original receipt as they did with me and I had to fax it.

  • Can I install Aperture on an Iomega hard drive attached to my IMac and use it from there with iPhoto pix on the IMaac

    Can  I install Aperture on an external Ilmega hard drive attached to my IMac and run Aperture from there to use it with photos on my IMac iPhoto library?

    It's usually best to have applications on the boot drive, so I'd turn your idea around: run Aperture from the internal disk and park iPhoto and maybe iTunes libraries on an external - which would free up space on the internal.

  • How can I install Aperture on my new Macbook Pro. I am up to date with my Mac Pro, I have the Aperture 1 and installation disks but cant remember how I got to 3. Can anyone help?  Many thanks regards Alf

    I have an up to date version of Aperture on my Mac Pro, and I would like to install it on my new Mac book Pro. I have the original installation disks for Aperture 1 and 2. I cant remember how I got to Aperture 3, I think it was via a web download but not sure. I have checked my purchases in the App Store but there is no indication of me buying an upgrade to Aperture 3.
    Ive tried to download it from the App Store but it wants me to pay again.
    Can anyone help on how to install Aperture 3 on my new Macbook .
    Many thanks regards  Alf

    Then you can download the Trial version of Aperture 3 and unlock it with your serial numbers - you will need all three for all three versions: A current link to the Trial version is in this support document, also instructions on how to reinstall on different systems:

    BTW: Your Aperture 3 serial number will be displayed in the "About" panel - the panel you see, when you use the command "About Aperture" from the Aperture menu in the main menu bar.

  • Can't install Aperture 3 from DVD on 10.8.3

    I just picked up a new iMac, installed 10.8.3 (updated from 10.8.2 which is what it shipped with) and then popped in a DVD w/Aperture 3.  When opening it said it had to reopen the installer (which is weird), and now when I select a destination disk the HD has a warning symbol with the message "Aperture can't be installed on this disk.  The contents of this disk can't be changed." 
    What's going on?

    On which drive are you trying to install Aperture? Your system drive or an external drive?
    Aperture needs to be installed in the "Applications" folder on your system drive for updates to work. Are you running the installer using an administrator account? Otherwise you may not have the necessary permissions to install Aperture.

  • Can i instal aperture on mac pro and laptop with single licence from mac store?

    when I buy aperture from mac store for 54pounds - can I install on both my mac pro and laptop?

    Excellent Thank you Niel:)

  • Can I install Aperture 3 on iMac with no disc drive

    Is it possible to install Aperture 3 on iMac using product serial number (my PC has no disc drive)?

    There is no longer a way to download a full version of Aperture from Apple's sites, other than the most recent version from the App Store. If you still have the installer disks, try to borrow an external DVD reader or ask a family member/fried with a computer that still has a DVD drive to create a disk image from the DVD. Then copy the Disk Image to a thumbs drive. If a Mac with a DVD drive is available on your local network, you could try DVD sharing.

  • Can't install aperture add on to lightroom 5.6

    I want to install aperture add on to aperture but I don't have creative cloud. I have tried using extension manager but it just keeps coming up with error even after i reintall the manager. Help?

    Well, I'm pretty sure that at this point you may not be able to install the trial at all, since they're set up to think you're cheating on the 30 day limit if you try an uninstall/reinstall. The problem is the PS trial you had before. What you need to do is to download and run this:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html
    to remove the last bits of the CS3 trial before installing PSE 6. It won't hurt to try it, but whether you'll be able to run the PSE trial will depend on how far the installer got the first time, I'm afraid.

  • I had a trial version and now i want to buy buty i forgot my serial number. How can in install aperture because the system always refer to the trial installation

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    You can buy Aperture in the Mac App Store without key and cheaper than in discs

  • Can not install aperture

    Other apps install fine, but trying to purchase Aperture leaves me with the 'We could not complete your purchase.  The product distribution file could not be verified.  It may be damaged or was not signed."
    This happens on 2 of the macs that I might want aperture on.
    This is on OS X Lion, latest as of Dec 22 2011

    It looks like this is some kind of App Store bug, actually.  If you enable the 'admin/root' user, the install commences without issue.  Other apps work fine.  So for now, that workaround will be the way to go.  Thanks to Apple support for helping me find this.

  • Can't install aperture 2.1.4 trial

    when i download and open the .dmg it shows a file "aperturetrial.mpkg" that has no creator application. it just asks me to 'choose an application' to open it with. i've downloaded it multiple times to be sure it wasn't a corrupted .dmg. same result.
    this is a fresh install of snow leopard.
    ideas?

    Yes I moved it from the Applications directory to a Photography sub-directory of Applications, together with all my other photographic software, which were beginning to clog up the Applications directory.

  • I have lost my Aperture 2 serial number how do I get a new one so that I can install Aperture 3 upgrade

    I have Aperture 2, changed my imac, used the backup system and found that I cannot find my serial number for Aperture 2. I have Aperture 3 upgrade, so can someone please advise how I get my serial number for Aperture 2 please. Hence I can not install Aperture 2, and therefore same problem not being able to install upgrade. Assistance would be much appreciated.

    I was having the same problem, unable to find my trash can. I did everythnig suggested in this post to no avail. Then I discovered if you hover to the far right of RECENT you will see either "Show" or "Hide"  "Show" reveals the following, including the trash. I'm sheepish that the solution was so easy but delighted to report that after viewing AND emptying my trash, I gained 55 GB on my HD.

  • Remote Disc not able to Install Aperture 2

    How can I install Aperture 2 on my MacBook Air? I receive an error message saying that installation can not occur over a network connection. I understood that using Remote Disc with the MacBook Air (without a DVD/CD drive) would take care of this.

    I installed Aperture 2 on my MacBook Air a few days ago (boxed UK educational package). I had no problem using Remote Disc. Making a disc image from the DVD and installing from the image also works.

  • How can I install my iMac's Aperture on my MacBrookPro

    How can I install my iMac's Aperture on my MacBrookPro

    What is your MacOS X version? Is your Aperture version the recent Aperture 3.5.1? Your profile signature "Mac OS 9.1.x? " cannot be right; do you mean Mac OS 10.9.1.x? And is the system the same on both Macs?
    If you bought Aperture from the AppStore, launch the AppStore on your MBP:
    Sign into the AppStore  with the AppleID you used to buy Aperture on your iMac.
    Download Aperture from the "Purchased" tab and let it install.
    If you bought Aperture  as a boxed retail version, use the Installer CD/DVD and serial number to install Aperture  on your MBP.
    If you bought Aperture online as a trial version, and bought a serial number to unlock the trial, use the trial installer you downloaded.
    If you no longer should have the installation media or the downloaded trial installer, you can convert your working Aperture installation to an AppStore licence by upgrading your iMac version to Aperture 3.5.1.  Then you can install and reinstall from the AppStore on all your Macs, if they are running Mavericks.
