How can I download Garageband (for free) after my hard drive crashed?

About a month ago my hard drive needed to be replaced, but I hadn't backed anything up onto an external hard drive. Yeah. Needless to say, it's been rough as I'm putting everything back together.  I went to the Geek Squad at Best Buy to have the new hard drive installed. Most of my programs came back when they installed the OS, but iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand were three that didn't make it.  iPhoto and iMovie are back, but GarageBand is not.  How can I get it back on my computer for free? When I bought my computer new, it came with GarageBand, so shouldn't I get it back for free?  Please help!!! I'm a music teacher and I have to record music for my students.  Thanks!

If you associated it with an Apple ID, log into the Mac App Store with that Apple ID, click on the Purchases tab, and download it from there.
If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer and you didn't do that or don't have access to that Apple ID, click here and contact Apple.
If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, install it from a DVD.

  • How can I recover my CS6 license after a hard drive crash?

    I work in a small corporation, one of my employees suffered a harddrive crash and lost her cs6 installation.
    For whatever reason, our IT dept (who insists on handling our licenses and installs) cannot locate her license info.  We paid a significant amount of money for that license, how can she recover?
    If the answer is contact support, then I need a phone number to call.

    If thew software was registered then the serial number could be avaiilable thru the Adobe account it was registereed under.

    And really, do back up your installers for situations like this. That stuff may not be around much longer one day...

  • How to reinstall Microsoft Office for Mac after new hard drive?

         Recently I had a problem with my Macbook Pro, and unfortunately had to purchase a new hard drive and have it installed. This also led to the loss of data and other things, such as Microsoft Office for Mac. I know this is an Apple community, but I get better answers here than at the Microsoft communities so I'm hoping someone can help find out how to reinstall Microsoft Office 2013. I logged onto my Microsft account and it says that there is no record of me purchasing Microsoft Office on that account but I know thats the account that it was purchased on, so i cannot get my product key to reinstall it as directed. Someone please help!!!!

    Try calling MS support and explaining the situation, maybe they will issue a new key.

  • Mavericks and iWork- how can I download iWork for free?

    I recently just purchased the MacBook Air. I have downloaded Mavericks TWICE and still the iWork does not show up as a free Apple app in the "Purchases" tab. Does anyone have any suggestions of how to get it? When I locate it in the App store all 3 programs are listed for $19.99 still. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Set your System language to English and try the App Store again, it should show up as free then.
    Change the language back after you install.

  • How can i download iWork for free on App Store?

    App store says it cost 150 SEK (swedish currency), didn't they say it was going to be free?

    You download the trial version then open atleast one of the apps pick the 30 day trial then go to the mac app store after 2 minutes there will be an update for the iwork applications then after you update them delete the old ones from the trial and you have the new updated ones. It is totally safe I did it and it worked you can also follow this tutorial

  • How can I download iPod content to a new hard drive installed on my laptop

    I had to get a new drive for my laptop and the data on my old drive was unrecoverable.  I do have all my photos and music on my iPod classic  Can I retrieve them from there?

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
    Keep in mind that the recovered photos will not be in their full resolution, but instead will be the scaled down versions that were optimized in size and resolution to fit your iPod's smaller LCD screen.

  • How do I download iLife for free with new macbook???

    I just purchased a 13" Macbook Pro on Friday and am trying to figure out how to download iPhoto and iMovie on it.  For some reason there is a cost for each program in the app store.  I submitted an up-to-date request for Pages, Number, and Keynote which should be ok, and I have downloaded garageband for free in the app store.  This is my very first mac so I was hoping someone can help with this.  The link attached is on the apple site saying that the six programs are supposed to be free with new purchases.

    Thanks!

    Log into the APP store using the Apple ID that you used to set up the computer and go to purchases - you may have to accept the programs and then download and install them
