HELP! How can I tell if my copy of iWork is Family Pack?
I bought this copy in 2007 and am selling it now, don't use anything in it, but I don't know whether this is the Family Pack or the individual user version.
I have the same problem with the copy of Leopard I bought, which I -know- is the Family Pack (5 installs) but which says nothing to that effect in the packaging!
Apple doesn't "track" installs but depends on the moral integrity of their consumers to abide by the software license. For most Apple Software the licenses state the software can only "exist on one computer" at a time. The licenses state that family pack software can exist on up to five computers in the same household. So, legally, you can uninstall the software from one Mac & install it on another & be within the terms of the license.

How can I tell if an install DVD is a family pack or a single-user?
I'm now running Tiger, and want to install Leopard. I can't go to Snow Leopard because my processor is powerPC -- not Intel.
I have purchased a new Leopard install DVD from a seller on Ebay. I paid for a family pack. It does not say "family pack" anywhere on the package, which is sealed in clear plastic. I asked the seller why it didn't show "family pack" anywhere visible on the package. He "guaranteed" that it is a family pack, not a single user license.
I've looked at a family pack DVD for Tiger and for Snow Leopard. Both show "family pack" on the exterior of the package, but I don't see anything on the face of the DVD.
Is there anyway that I can confirm whether the seller is being truthful? If I open the package, and it doesn't show anything on the face of the DVD . . . . how can I tell if it really is a family pack?
Thanks for your help.My Leopard came pre-installed, so I don't have a retail package to examine. However, doing a google image search for family packs, I couldn't find any obvious difference on the outside or inside between the two. Here, for example, is someone who says he bought a family pack and photos of the inside of the box including the DVD:

Notice, no "family pack" to be seen anywhere.
The only difference, as I understand it, between the family pack and the single-user pack is the number of license you pay for. If you paid (a third-party) for a family pack license, then I feel you can in good conscience install the OS on up to five computers in your house or that otherwise meet the terms of use for a family pack. The OS will not seek out duplicate serial numbers on your network or anything like that (even single-user installs rely on the honor system) so you will be fine. -
How can I tell if my software licence is a Family Pack or Single use?
I need to work out which licence I have as my daughter has a Mac Book. Her school provided her with iWork but take it off when she leaves in a month or so. If I have the Family Pack I can load Pages, Keynote etc, but not if I only have Single use.
If you still have the box or electronic receipt you could call your closest Apple Store and give them the serial # or model # and they can check it. Do you remember what you paid? Also, there are no longer any Family Packs with Lion, but I see your sig says Snow Leopard.

How can I tell if someone copied files off of my G4?
I left my G4 unlocked because itunes was running for the stereo, I walked in to my office on someone acting funny. How can I determine if he copied files off of my Dual G4 onto a usb thumb drive, CD or DVD... Can I simply check an activity log, console or terminal?? All I need to know is if someone did anything which my system other then listen to itunes during a three hour window. Thanks in advance
You need to look at your system log in Console utility. Open Console in the /Applications/Utilities folder (cmd-shift-U will get you there right away), which will open with the console.log file. Click the Logs icon to reveal the other log files available, and you should find system.log right under console.log. Click system.log.
Now, in the filter window in the upper right corner of the window, type diskarbitration to filter. That will tell you if any thumb drive was connected, at least. This is the kind of thing you should find, maybe. The time stamp is important.
You may need to go back several swapped system.log versions, to be sure, so you need to then reveal the log files and folders under /var/log by clicking the triangle, then go down that list until you see eight files named system.log.0.gz through system.log.7.gz. Click each in turn and if they are not very short, filter again on diskarbitration.
Now, if you find something suspicious, you need to preserve the specific log file, as it will be rotated out by the daily maintenance. Bring up the Go to Folder dialog from Finder by the keyboard shortcut of cmd-shift-G, and type in /var/log as the name of the folder. This will bring up a folder with the log files of interest, which is normally an invisible folder. Select the log file you want to protect and duplicate it using cmd-D. Then move that duplicate to someplace safe.
You may also find CD burn information in the diskrecording.log file as well.

How can I move an e mail account from one family pack to another
I have an e mail address (not main family pack e mail address) and I would like to move it to another family pack. Is this possible and if so how?
ThanksCaroline12, Welcome to the discussion area!
I believe that your question is about a Mobile Me family pack account. If that is true, I believe that the answer is no.
But your probably should post your question in the Apple.com > Support > Discussions > MobileMe discussion area. -
Help Please! How can I tell what is stored on my iPod?
I just recently got a new iPod Nano, and started using iTunes to upload music to it. But, for some reason, I can only fit like 60 or so songs onto it. I have a 1 GB Nano. If I click onto my iPod in iTunes, it says at the bottom of the screen that I have 59 songs, 3.2 hrs of music, 223.2 MB, but just above that, where the bar is that shows how much is stored to my iPod, it says I have used 750.5 MB and have 142.1 MB free. Where is the other 527.3 MB being used and how can I tell? Is it being used in the games? I have no pics or videos at all on my iPod. It's getting very frustrating because I can't fit very much at all on my 1GB Nano. Help!
sussan-b,
Does the bar showing used space have a portion labeled "Other"?
Usually other is files that have been copied to the iPod directly, or space you have told the iPod to reserve for other files by enabling disk use.

PLEASE HELP! How can I tell if my Imac has been hacked?
PLEASE HELP! How can I tell if my Imac has been hacked? I see a few people have asked this question but the responses tended to be advice on what to do once you've been hacked, not what can done to find out if you have been hacked. I have a late 2012 model imac. My sharing was off and remote logging was off. I use an external router that send wireless to about 4 consoles in the flat. I don't think I have any firewalls up (now looking like a mistake). I think I'm possibly being hacked due to abnormal behaviour and most recently my camera was turned off all day (no LED) then I went to record something on Photo Booth, the application popped up displaying an image of me getting dressed (nightmare!) which happened hours earlier when the camera was off. This image quickly then disappeared and the camera began working normally. Very strange and alarming. Please help me. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

We are a retail shop which has a copy of AppleCare Protection plan. The box is not sealed. How can I tell if the product has been registered or not.
Since the only thing needed in that box is the small piece of paper with the (very long) registration code on it (usually found inside the booklet), see if that is actually there and, if it is, call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask to be transferred to the Applecare department. Here is the link to the Applecare plan - just in case you may need it, see the fax numbers listed under para. 9 (Cancellation).

Yesterday, I purchased Mountain Lion OSX and tried to download it but I don't think the download worked. How can I tell if I am using Mountain Lion and how do I get help if the download was unsuccessful?
Click your Apple menu icon top left corner of your screen.
From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
If Mountain Lion is installed, it will say: v10.8
If not, launch the App Store. From the App Store menu bar click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads
FYI .. for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation. -
I have three iphoto_libraries stored in a external disk PASSPORT (one for each trip imovie Im making -Ive managed this way the libraries so to not confuse the trips) while the actual files are in OTHER external disk LACIE. And everything was fine: imovie find each library, could work with it, or iphoto could edit the files.
But one day everything crashed at the same time: i opened iphoto to find 3 different scenarios:
1) iphoto_library GREECE was there, but not the albums i prepared. no events. when double click in any of them: "Volume not found"
2) iphoto_library ITALY was there, and the albums i prepared too, but empty.
in both cases I can only see the photos in 'photos' because 'events' shows some events with photo preview and some with no preview, just some kind of preset clipart palm tree, but if i enter the event, photos are there but again: when double click in any item: "Volume not found"
3) iphoto_library ISRAEL was there, the albums too, when double click in any of them: all OK
The 3 libraries was managed the same way. Meaning: Ive imported photos to iphoto from external disk LACIE in a iphotolibrary stored in another external disk PASSPORT. Also: I don't have unchecked the option "copy to file" or something like that. photos where moved, not copied. Also i have all the movie_libraries in the PASSPORT as well. What happened??
Solution? Nothing yet. Ive moved now all the photo folders from LACIE together in PASSPORT with the iphotolibraries but problem persist:
HOW CAN I TELL THE LIBRARIES WHERE TO LOOK FOR THE VOLUMES NOW?
"Volumes" are the original files aren't them?
Please help. this is so annoying to try and find in the forum, to tricky to explain
I have a Macbook pro retina Yosemite 10.10.1 / iphoto 9.6 (910-29)/ iMovie 10.0.6
THANK YOU
VickyThe 3 libraries was managed the same way. Meaning: Ive imported photos to iphoto from external disk LACIE in a iphotolibrary stored in another external disk PASSPORT.
This is not clear, especially when you say
I don't have unchecked the option "copy to file" or something like that. photos where moved, not copied.
Especially as the message you're getting is typical of a library where the ' option "copy to file" or something like that' is unchecked.
So it's a simple question:
Are you these Managed or Referenced Libraries?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management. -

How can I tell which catalog a missing image belongs to?
How can I tell which catalog a missing image belongs to?
Beating a dead horse.....Everytime I need "missing images" in LR4.2, I cannot access them, even though I am looking right at the location they presntly occupy because thye image is ALREADY IN ANOTHER CATALOG.
HOW frustrating is this...going on 8 months now. But I need the images and I suppose I could just go back and reprocess 10,000 images that are missing in my collections but I have tried many solutions offered over the months that are just impractical.
So Now I want to approach this thing from the other direction...
If let's say one image is already associated with another catalog that houses that collection, ( and the collection is important because it has the edits), i want to go to that catalog instead.
How do I do this?
Any Ideas?So Now I want to approach this thing from the other direction...
If let's say one image is already associated with another catalog that houses that collection, ( and the collection is important because it has the edits), i want to go to that catalog instead.
How do I do this?
It sounds as if you have been using separate catalogs for sets of images which are in separate folders. Perhaps you have had good reason to do that. But I would now make three linked observations:
It seems that you are now more able to both find, and distinguish, things via a folder structure - rather than via whatever classification of different catalogs you may have thought were going to be helpful to you
accordingly, having these mutiple catalogs is now getting in your way
using folders works just the same inside one big catalog, as it does inside each of two smaller catalogs.
The solution to the first two, IMO, is to merge your separate catalogs into one catalog. Then the third will kick in. You can still keep the current separate catalogs for archive or reference purposes, but the "Import from Another Catalog" function will MERGE copies of all their contents into a combined, larger catalog that you can use going forward. (The images and folders themselves, do not change in any way when you do this.)
If you wish to track which catalog each image is currently inside, you could apply some kind of keyword across all images in that catalog, before carrying out the merge. However, it sounds to me as if your folder arrangement currently mirrors the different catalogs in some way anyway - and will continue to convey the same information once combined.
Lightroom is designed to be able to work with large numbers of images more or less the same as with small numbers; and this has been anecdotally confirmed in many cases. AFAICT the main performance issue is not the size of the database, but the size and nature of the image data involved and the complexity of things you do with that, per image, also the ability of your computer system to carry these operations out, per image. (Another overall productivity issue is: do you need to keep navigating to and opening different catalogs; or... not!)
Even if you merge catalogs and then change your mind about all or some of that, you can either: retain and go back to the previous un-merged catalogs - or: to preserve further work done since merging, you can use Export as Catalog to copy out a certain highlighted set of images. Then you can Remove what you wish from the main catalog - using the exact same means of identifying which images require this - for example, the image set you have only just exported to a new catalog will still be highlighted inside the source catalog.

I moved my Masters, now how can I tell Aperture that my photos have moved?
I just purchased Aperture, and wanted to import my iPhoto photos into Aperture. However, there was not nearly enough hard drive space on my MacBook, so I copied the iPhoto photos onto an external hard drive, and then imported the photos from the external drive into Aperture, keeping the masters on the external. So far, so good. Now I disconnect the external hard drive from my MacBook and attach it to my AirPort, thinking that I would be able to mount the external over my network and Aperture would see that the maters were now on the networked drive. However, now Aperture is saying that it cannot find my master images. So my question is, how can I tell Aperture that my photos have moved? I thought about the relocate master menu item, but I can't to that because I am not actually relocating the images, I am relocating the drive that the images are stored on. Any help would be most appreciated
Reconnect Masters, as opposed to relocating them.

How can you tell if a pic hasnt been tagged by iPhoto, and do you then...
How can you tell if a pic hasnt been tagged by iPhoto, and do you then do you then have to draw "missing box" around them
What I mean is tagged a few faces, imported some more pics, checked a few and they dont show as named faces, but are faces that are in my Faces source list (ie identified and named)
So do I then have to draw a box around known faces to me, and name them again (I think iPhoto will pop up as Im typing the names I already have)
It just means that even when i import and it doesnt name, I may have lots of pics that are of faces but not tagged and so not in my faces source list
please help
cheers
ps when are Apple going to upload the Getting Started manuals for iLife 09? its been a while since released now, ad they give a bit more insight than the video tutorials aloneNo-one? It'll be nice to know how many pics of faces that arent yet tagged
cheers
