DOWNLOAD OF GARAGEBAND: Says An eligible GarageBand application was not fou

An eligible GarageBand application was not found in /Applications.
How can I get this to work?
Thanks in advance!

GarageBand is not a free download. You must have downloaded an update for an existing version GarageBand. Therefore, you need to have a version of it installed in order to use the update.
Is the iBook an iBook G4?
If so, you may want to try posting in the iBook G4 Forum.
You have posted in the iBook G3 (Dual USB) Forum.

  • Hi i haven't updated my iDVD seen 2005 and to get the new one i need 7.0.4 first and i downloaded it from the apple website and when i go into the updating process its says "An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications." why"

    Because you need to buy iLife 08 or newer on DVD first. If you're using iDVD 05, you probably have a PowerPC Mac and can't use iLife 11.

  • Upgrading iWork says "An eligible Keynote application was not found in the location /Applications/iWork '09". But it's wrong!

    iWork CD came with the iMac three years ago.
    Need to upgrade Pages and Numbers from Pages '09 Version 4.0.4 etc. as I use iPad a lot, iCloud and have Mountain Lion installed.
    Downloaded the package but clicking to install says "An eligible Keynote application was not found in the location /Applications/iWork '09"
    Well, it IS there but what can I do?

    Hi Jnorris234, Please help if you can.
    I'm haveing this very same problem. I've tried to repeat all that you did to fix this and I still get the  - "An eligible Keynote application was not found in the location /Applications/iWork '09."
    Although my iWork '09 file was in it's proper place - (Applications folder) and it included Pages 4.1, Numbers 2.1 and Keynote 5.1 - I have been unable to update my iWork apps. I've downloaded all updates from Apple support to install updates direct - (the app store does NOT recognize my iWork '09 suite). But no luck.
    I have created a new folder and put it in my applications folder - then named it iWork '09 and moved the iWork apps into it then tried the update but no luck.
    Any thoughts?

  • Pages is not working in my computer anymore.  Templates aren't there and I tried redownloading the application, but it says An eligible Pages application was not found in the location /Applications.

    You will need to buy the newest iWork so it works again. I had the same problem.
    No, there is no need to re-purchase iWork. If it was installed from a retail boxed DVD, it needs to be reinstalled from the DVD. If a license was purchased electronically for the iWork '09 trial, reinstalling from the downloaded dmg will need to be done. If any of the apps were purchased from the Mac App Store, they can be reinstalled from the Mac App Store.

  • I have Pages '08 3.0.3. Am trying to Download an Upgrade but get a mesdage saying "an eligible Keynote app was not found in the location/Applications/iWork '09. What to do?

    I have successfully imported a Pages document from my (new) iPad but it will not open because it tells me that "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document".
    I have Pages '08 3.0.3. Am trying to Download an Upgrade but get a message saying "an eligible Keynote application was not found in the location/Applications/iWork '09".
    What to do?

    Go to the App Store in your Applications folder, not in a browser, and search for 'Pages':
    Click on the price to buy immediately (there is no 'basket') - the credit card you have registered with iTunes will be charged. Or click on the icon for an information page:
    Again, click on the price to buy immediately - note that you get no 'are you sure', the purchase is immediate and not cancellable.

  • I need to install I DVD but it says that:An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications., I need to install I DVD but it says that:An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications.

    PLease, I am trying to install I DVD but it says that an eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications.
    Somebody can help me?

    It sounds as if you're trying to install an update rather than the actual application itself. iDVD is no longer included with new Macs and you'll need to use your original Applications disc to install it (or, if you never had it at all, but iLife '11 from Amazon to get iDVD).
    Good luck,

  • An eligible iPhoto application was not found in the location /Applications.

    Hi,
    I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.6. Recently my computer encountered a serious hardware problem and everything had to be reinstalled. Thankfully, I was able to salvage all of my files. When I reopened iPhoto however, it appeared as iPhoto v6.0.6. Previously I am very sure I had version 7 or later. Now when I want to upgrade my iPhoto a screen appears with that message
    "An eligible iPhoto application was not found in the location /Applications."
    I've been to nearly every forum to try and solve my problem but it still doesn't work. I'd appreciate any help I can get and apologize if communication-wise, my computing knowledge/terms are slightly limited.
    Thanks.

    If you had iPhoto 7 then you should have the disks that it came on. Download and run Pacifist on the disks that came with your computer to see what version of iPhoto is available. If it's V6 the you're getting the message because the database is damaged.
    If that's the case about the only recourse I can think of is to try the following:
    Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Open the library package like this.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
    The original library will still be available for further attempts at recovery.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

    Kinur,
    Yes, it's a good idea to purchase first, upgrade later.
    As far as I know, there is no other way.
    We can't upgrade iWork '08 into iWork '09 and, applying an updater require the availability of an existing set of applications of the same generation.

  • An eligible GarageBand application was not found in /Applications.

    New Imac, suddenly Garage band won't open - instead, I get a grey quesion mark that forms above the garage band icon.
    I checked for updated software, on trying to install, I get the subject line as an error message?
    Please help - new mac user.

    My guess is a key file has been moved or deleted. First try repairing permissions. Next try opening garageband in another user account. If you still have problems just reinstall garageband, it's on the disk that came with your imac.

  • An eligible Keynote application was not found in the location /Applications

    I am running Keynote 4.0. The Keynote icon is located in the /Applications folder, between iTunes and Mail. OS is 10.4.11. VersionTracker says that I should upgrade to Keynote 4.01. However, when I download the 32.8 MB Keynote_401.pkg from Apple and launch it, I get the error message listed in the title of this e-mail and the install application program closes. Interestingly, Software Update (from the Apple Menu) says that all is up-to-date with Keynote 4.0.
    I've restarted and run AppleJack several times, but this problem persists.
    Can anyone provide advice as to how to update to 4.01?
    Thank you very much!

    Hi Kyn (or anyone). I am getting a similar denial when I try to download/up grade my iDVD. I don't even have an iWork folder. Is there some place/folder I should drag the installer? Also, when trying to download, I get warning that I need 10.4.9, but I HAVE 10.4.11! (Isn't that higher?!)

  • I can not use CanoScan N670U with my Macbook pro. I download canoscan toolbox 4.1 from Cannon website. It keep saying "the scanner plug-in was not found". Please help

    I can not use CanaScan N670U with my Macbook Pro. I download Canoscan toolbox 4.1 from Cannon websit. It still keep saying "The scanner plug-in was not found". Please help

    There is a solution (I'm running Snow Leopard on a Core2Duo iMac, but this problem arose when I was running Leopard on a G4 PowerBook too).
    Problem:
    You download the OS X driver for the scanner from Canon's site. I already had the CanoScan Toolbox (4.1) stored on an external drive.
    You unzip the driver and run the VISE installer. After a search it finds your copy of Photoshop (and maybe even the CanoScan Toolbox), and you click to install on that/those location(s).
    You get a couple of error messages, which you click through.
    You restart your computer and try to run the scanner but you get an error that the driver is wrong or missing and the process will abort.
    Solution:
    BEFORE you restart, and with the installer package still open -
    1. Copy the Into_CFMSupport_Login & Into_CMPrefs folders to
    Applications : Canon Utilities
    Applications : Canoscan Toolbox
    and remove the prefix Into_ from each folder
    2. Check whether the installer placed N067U_Library.shlb into the top level (not User level)
    Library : CFMSupport
    and if it didn't, move it there yourself
    THEN restart, and try again. It worked for me (via Photoshop), but whether it will work for everyone, I don't know.

  • I recently had my account expire, and need to utilize the trial to finish a project. Even though my account says 'free trial' the applications will not open. How do I get the APP to recognize that I'm in trial and not expired?

    I recently had my account expire, and need to utilize the trial to finish a project. Even though my account says 'free trial' the applications will not open. How do I get the APP to recognize that I'm in trial and not expired?

    I had a year long CC membership that expired at the beginning of the October.
    After realizing that, I attempted to start a free trial of photoshop to work on a project. My Adobe account states that i'm on a trial, but my (Mac) dashboard CC app won't allow me to start the program. I have reinstalled both Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC but still get this message.

  • The definition of base class Application was not found.

    Hello:
    I have been coding in Flash Builder Burrito and publishing to my Xoom for a few weeks. All of a sudden at the end of the day I'm getting this compiler error which says:
    1017: The definition of base class Application was not found.    AppName.mxml    /AppName/src    Unknown    Flex Problem
    I sometimes hit the wrong key with I try to copy and paste and all of a sudden a new window will open for source of a default component which I never wanted to edit. I'm afraid I somehow deleted or modified the default class defnition of Application?
    I don't understand why this would come out of the blue, I was working on a function within a class that was drawing points  ... Then all off a sudden I'm getting this error and it's driving me nuts.
    I tried to reinstall FB Burrito on my Mac, but after all that work it still says the same thing. Wouldn't it replace the default class defs?
    Please help!

    Wow, some really strange behavior.
    OK, so here is what I'm going through. I reinstall, import the project and compiles.
    Then I uncomment the new section which contains the following code:
    lineStyle(1.0,0x8ea4bf);
    var line_commands:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int>();
    line_commands.push(GraphicsPathCommand.LINE_TO, GraphicsPathCommand.LINE_TO, GraphicsPathCommand.LINE_TO, GraphicsPathCommand.LINE_TO);
    var line_coord:Vector.<Number> = new Vector.<Number>();
    line_coord.push(0,0, newW, angle, newW, (newH+angle), 0, newH);
    drawPath(line_commands, line_coord);
    I get 3 diffrent errors, which lead up to the error listed in the topic.
    At first it says that "int" isn't a valid type and it points to this line:
    var line_commands:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int>();
    Then I take int out so the line looks like this:
    var line_commands:Vector = new Vector();
    Then it says I can't nest classes and it points to the main MXML. I go to the main MXML then the error switches to say "The definition of base class Application was not found.".
    I did figure out how to fix this with out reinstalling. I have to delete the project from my list (making sure to comment out the code above), then re-launch FB Burrito, then re-import the project and it works.
    This is way nuts! I dont understand ... am I crazy?

  • The application was not installed because it is not signed

    Hi
    I am having a weird problem with some apps following a restore.
    When I synch with iTunes, some apps are installed, and others get an error "the application was not installed because it is not signed".
    These are ordinary apps, such as facebook.
    The really strange thing is I can download the apps direct to the iphone, but instead of them appearing as a brand new app, all my previously recorded settings are restored.
    The Capacity bar in iTunes is showing a large amount of 'other' data being stored on the phone. Its as if the apps are being transfered to the iphone from my PC, but just not being enabled.
    I am running iTunes 9.2.1.5 and iOS 4.02 on a vista 64 PC.
    Can anyone help?
    Regards
    Grant

    If you are seeing alot of "Other" in the capacity there is a issue with the software you loaded onto the phone. When you did the restore did you restore from backup?
    If so restore again and setup the device as new. Then sync all content back and should resolve the issue.
    Hope this helps!!
