Have 2 versions of iMovie on Mac

Considering buying iLife 08 for iWeb function. Is it possible to keep and use my old iMovie 06 on the same computer?

Is there anything special I need to do during installation of iLife (ie Custom Install) to make this happen.
If you install iLife '08 over a previous version, then the previous version of iMovie is automatically placed in a separate "iMovie (previous version)" folder. However, if you already have iLife '08 installed and need to re-install a previous version of iMovie, then use the download iMovie HD version 6.0.4 which is configured not to delete iMovie '08. Re-installing from older versions of an iLife DVD will automatically delete the new applications.

Hello. I have two version of Office for Mac. 2008 and 2001. I want to delete the 2008 version. If I use the removal tool within the Offie 2008 folder, is there any danger of the 2001 version being removed too. Thanks Dave UK

Do you mean Office 2008 and 2011 or do you really want Office 2001? I think you mean 2011 since Office 2001 wouldn't make much sense.
The Office uninstaller should be able to identify there are two versions and allow you to delete either one or both.

How to import iMovie (iPhone version) to iMovie 11(Mac version 9.04)?

I filmed some video using my iPhone 4s using the iPhone version of iMovie. How can I transfer this movie to the iMovie 11 on my Mac?
I've hooked the iPhone up to the Mac, but I am unable to see the phone as a video camera option in iMovie. Also, while I was able to download photos to iPhoto, I do not see the video in iPhoto. I also see the phone in iTunes, but again, I do not see the video anywhere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Note, I have a 2011 MBA that is running 10.7.3
The iPhone is running running iOS 5.1. The phone says all software is up to date.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Dang, that's a letdown. I was just revisiting some movies I hadn't touched in years with the idea to finalize them in the newest version. They show up as a "Unix Executable"
This from the iMovie help
*Only the raw video is imported; any additions or changes you’ve made to the video in your project are not imported:*...
*All transitions are replaced by cross dissolves.*
*None of the titles or effects that were applied to the video are transferred to the new project.*
*None of the music is transferred to the new project.*
Maybe I'll finish them in iMovieHD

What is the latest version of iMovie for MAC and how do I download it?

The current version may be obtained at the App Store. If you have an older version installed, then it should be available in Updates. The new version will not work with Snow Leopard.

Can I have multiple versions of JDeveloper on Mac?

Hi,
Can I have multiple versions of JDeveloper on one Mac, like Windows?
I have JDeveloper 11.1.2.2.0 (11.1.2.2.39.61.83) on Mac and want to install 11.1.2.3.0.
Is there any considerations/notes if any?
Thanks,

Timo & Vinod,
Thank you for your input. I'll try it out, then.
Regards,
nTimo & Vinod are exactly right - you'll simply have to create a new Middleware home. (At current count, I have four different JDev versions running on my own Mac.)
The only thing to note will be the creation of a new "system11.xxx" directory in the hidden ~/.jdeveloper directory where the installer places the files for the integrated weblogic server/domain.

The web says I need to get the upgrade version of Firefox as no longer will be protected. Then When I tried to do so It is said that you don´t have a version compatible with my Mac

When I open my Firefox browser it says I need to upgrade it. Then when I do so, and download the necessary things, It is said that i have no a compatible version with firefox. I have a Mac, version Os X 10.4.11....So How Could you provide me with an answer according to my need? Please, I need this help as today, I when to look for information and google asked me to write the character given in a box ...and supposely I am no longer protected against attacks from the web. Thank you.

The Firefox 3.5.x branch has reached end-of-life and is no longer maintained.<br />
You will no longer receive security updates.<br />
You can update Firefox via "Help > Check for Updates" or download and install the latest Firefox 3.6.x.<br />
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

I have 3 versions of iMovie on 3 computers

Hi
My new iMac has 6.0.3 my powerbook has 5.0.2 and my eMac has 3.0.3 and 5.0.2 ??
This is the same with all my iLife applications I assume . It seems like it would be nice if they were all the same but I really don't want to pay for the new iLife . I feel like I sort of did when I bought the new computer .
So am I stuck with all the old applications ?
--thank you for any help -I awarded points

... I feel like I sort of did when I bought the new computer...
legal things often hurt your feelings... you paid for ONE licence..
...So am I stuck with all the old applications ?...
yepp.
or purchase more licences...
and: read the recommended hardware specs for iLife6 before spending YOUR money for OTHER peoples work.. ;))

Why two versions of iMovie in my Mac?

Hi,
after the upgrade to OSX Mavericks I have two versions of iMovie: the last and 9.9...why?
App store say me that I have to upgrade it but I have already the lastest version on my Mac. In launchpad I have the old version not the last.
In application folder I have the new app....WHAT HAPPEN?!?!
How can I remove the old version and use only the new? How can I put the icon of last version into launchpad?
Thank you!

This was by design. You get to keep the old version incase you don't like the newer one or have some projects that your are working on or features that you need that are not working in the newer version. I'd keep the old version until you've really gone through the new one and decide it for you. It still has a lot of bugs and some features are missing.

What is the file structure for new iMovie for Mac?

Under the previous version of iMovie for Mac, iMovie stored my clips and finished projects in folders that I was able to create on my hard drive. I have one folder named Events and another folder name Projects. With the new version of iMovie for Mac (the one that came with OS X Mavericks), I see there now is a file named iMovie Library 2.imovielibrary on my hard drive. Can someone explain how clips and projects are stored in the new iMovie versus the previous version of iMovie? Is all my content now stored in the iMovie Library 2.imovielibrary folder? The "date modified" on my previous Events and Projects folders shows 23 October, so it seems that the new iMovie no longer accesses those folders. Sound correct? Can I delete those old folders? Thank you

Do you know why the file is named iMovie Library 2.imovielibrary? Does the "2" imply there is another iMovie Library.imovielibrary file somewhere, without the "2"? Can I rename the package file to iMovie Library.imovielibrary without the "2"?
I wouldn't rename any of the files that iMovie creates in the Finder. You're asking for trouble.
I think the reason for the "2" is that at some point iMovie encountered a folder already with that name.
Did you re-install iMovie version 10 or do anything else that may have been non-standard with your installation?

I've kept the old version od imovie (6.0.4) through three migrations and now have it on a mac 10.6.8. i prefer it to the new one, but it has recently begun to give me serious problems. is it becoming obsolete?

i've always thought imovie 6.0.4 was the superior product. i've used it edit semi-profesional films. its easy and intuitive, and always gives you what you want, while looking profesional. i have final cut pro, which i use when i have more time or the project is of more importance, but i still love the ease and simplicity of the old imovie. i've migrated it over 4 computers and it has worked fine till about a week ago. it now takes up to 20 minutes to load, frequently drops out. leaves phantom and relic snipets of audio. is there any way i can fix this problem and keep my beloved imovie 6.0.4? can download it from a third party? are the issues because the .app is going obsolete or are there just new bugs on my computer? i've recently uninstalled all my adobe products and put them onto another computer, could that be it? help me obi won, you're my only hope!

klaus 1,
thanx for the reply. i'm on a 10.6.8 snow leopard.
yes, it did arrive via migration, but had been working well for over 2 years, and two years before that on a 10.5, where it had migrated from a mac book g4 where i used it regularly. through all that time and migration, not a single problem
i can't pinpoint the exact 'original' problem, because i'm currently working on two different editing jobs (one serious [a kickstarted campaign] the other, not so much, for my son's pre-school graduation, i was making the school a little video for their website). so during this time, i'm using a combo of; imovie, adobe premiere and final cut pro. and i've had so much pulsing through my computer (and external hard drives), literally hundreds of gigs of HD video, tons of tiff and jpeg files, and much mp4 and aif music files. i often had three or four major applications all open and running simultaneously, so who knows how this all started. but one day, i flipped open my mac, and just clicked on imovie, not a file mind you, but just the icon, and it took like 2 minutes to load (usually 5-10 seconds). i made sure all other apps and windows were closed and tried it again - now 3 minutes to load and it drops out mid edit. and it just kept getting worse.
AND THEN, AFTER IWROTE ABOVE 'I - ME' MADE THINGS, MUCH, MUCH WORSE.
i was aware that there is an old quicktime 7 that gets installed in a 10.6.8 to supplement the newer quicktime x and the various other programs, including imovie, that still use qt 7. i was a bit confused why there even is an icon for qt 7 in the utilities folder, since you never open it directly, it just works behind the scenes. but whatever.
after imovie started acting up, i looked up to see what programs that imovie uses, thinking the problem might be there and found an article that said there was actually an even earlier version of quicktime, (qt 7.0.3 i think) that was specifically made for imovie, but there hadn't been enough major changes in qt to bother imovie, but (there is always a but) there were changes coming that would begin to affect imovie. since the article (i wish i could link it here, sorry) was a year old, i thought maybe the damaging upgrade was already made. so i found this older version of quicktime (the 7.0.3 version) and tried to install it, thinking it would fix my issue, i'd finish the edit, then delete it. but when i tried to open it, it told me, a newer version of of qt was on my computer and i couldn't install it. so very impulsively and idiotically i uninstalled quicktime 7, thinking i would just reinstall it later. but that's when everything went wrong.
SO I MUST STRESS THIS TO EVERYONE! NEVER NEVER NEVER UNINSTALL QUICKTIME.
apparently quick time x is preinstalled into the 10.6.8, in such a way, that its interconnected with like 12 other programs, that will all begin to act erradictly after it is uninstalled. then those 12 programs will each affect 5 more and soon, your computer, then your hard-drive is blown. i tried reinstalling quicktime, but could not. i tried every conceivable way, but could not even find it in any folder. it was gone. and so was qt x.
so when i uninstalled quicktime 7, it affected quick time x in such a way that it stopped working, then could not be found. then all h**l broke loose. every program began to run slowly and started dropping out. functionally, the computer became so slow, it was useless. even typing became slow. i still did not know about the 'never uninstall quick time rule' yet, so i looked for the problem else where.
i opened up activity monitor, and there were no programs eating up cpu, nothing that suspicious. but when i switched activity monitor to show usage in a descending order, i saw kernel task was using between 500-700% cpu. my fans started running furiously and my battery life dropped in half. i would switch off the computer, start it with reset, things would go well for a half hour, then kernel would spike, the computer would get red hot and the fans would go as fast as propellers. since the kickstarter campaign i was working on was on deadline, i had to keep working. so i went out and bought a laptop stand that allows airflow under the computer and has its own fan to cool the computer, that worked for about a day. but since the fan on the stand ran on power from the usb of my computer, my battery life went from very good, to completely dead. nothing. accidentally unplug the cord for a millisecond second, and the computer turns off. when i restart, the time is set to the day and time i bought the computer, and would undo my internet, and i'd have to reset my whole connection.
i spent twelve straight hours, through the night, using recovery programs, like pacifist, stellar phoenix, and others, but could not get quick time back. finally (like 4 hours ago) i called apple, and although i have no warranty or apple care, they took my call and we tried some things, which didn't work.
i had already run disk utility and exhausted all other options. and i was told by apple that since my computer was preloaded (no discs) i could not, erase and reboot, which wasn't really an option anyway.
so apple being the best run company in the country, sends me a new down loadable version of imovie, quick time 7 and quick time ten.
it hasn't arrived yet, but how cool is that?
i have to say though, i'm a bit worried about reinstalling by disc and have no real guarantee that everything will return to normal.
not to mention my battery is dead and snow leopard gives you no way of getting to it. it has to be replaced at an official apple certified store.
so lesson here, never, ever, never, uninstall quicktime. i hope no one else makes this mistake.
thanx and good luck.

I NEVER hated APPLE until NOW!! I love APPLE products and apps so please help me stay in that mindset. So I worked on some movie projects when I got my macbook pro 6 months ago. I update reguarly. I saw the update prompt and honestly, I did not think I would have ANY issuess with opening my previous files that I created only a few months ago with this updated version.The new updated version of iMovie 10 won't let me open my previous files I created before the update today. I have a wedding that I'm trying to finish and deliver and now I can't because that file version won't open. I keep getting an error message and the iMovie app closes. Last night I saw the file and tried to open it but no luck. Error message came up again. I reboot and turned off my laptop for the evening and tried again just now but nothing!! I need that video. My job depends on it! I worked so hard on this wedding video and now it's lost and won't open. I work another job and don't have much time. I really don't want to start all over again. Please help me. Thanks so much for your assistance.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?
I am running Yosemitie on a iMac.
