How do i get back imovie if deleted from my mac

i bought final cut pro and i was stupid and deleted imovie 08.... i need it back for a project at school and was wondering if there is a way besides reseting my mac back to the original factory ****...i don't wanna lose all my files

Do you have your original install disks for OSX? (assuming iLife was pre-loaded with your new Mac.)
If so, boot up with the install disk in the drive. You should not have to reinstall. You can pick the Utilities menu, and it should allow you to reinstall iMovie.
If this does not work for you, there is a third-party program called Pacifist that will enable you to install iMovie from the OSX install disks.

    Either click here and follow the instructions, or follow those in the article you asked this question from and then sync the iPhone with that iTunes library.

    On my new iMac Mavericks idMovie dhas disappeared (crashed?). lSince the programme is preinstalled, I have no CD to reinstall it. Several film projects were under work. How could I get back the programme?

    Mavericks doesn't include iMovie. It's a separate download from the App Store.
    Log into the App Store and download it.

  • How do I get BACK to my ipod from I store, with new itunes?

    So I start my I tunes..
    It goes to my Apps.. OOps, I have 1 update available.
    It goes to the down load page.
    I can download it, or refuse it.. and then it takes me to the ITunes store.
    How do I get back to my own Ipod? I cannot find the menu option. seems the only way is to exit Itunes and restart.
    I really do not like this new Itunes format. its so frustrating.
    Thanks.

    You can't put music directly onto your iPod from a memory stick. You can, however, get iTunes to recognize the tracks on the stick without having to copy them to the computer. Go to the iTunes Advanced preferences and uncheck the option to "Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library". Then use the Add to Library command or drag the tracks into the iTunes window. iTunes will recognize the track files on the memory stick and allow you to sync them to the iPod. Note that when you remove the memory stick, iTunes will of course then not be able to play nor sync the tracks until you put the stick back in. It may therefore be better to just clear some space on your computer's hard drive.
    Regards.

  • How do I get back to iTunes 8 from 9 ?

    Hi
    I have 2 Macintosh mashines.
    I dislike Safari 4, so I'm using the 3 version.
    Now I just have installed iTunes 9 and when I wanted to go to iTunes Store I was asked to upgrade my Safari to version 4, which I still do not want to do.
    How do I get back to iTunes version 8 ?
    (Fortunately I still have iTunes version 8 on my other Mac and I mange to get in contact with iTunes Store from iTunes v.8 – so I know it is still possible to talk to iTunes Store from iTunes 8)

    I am having the same problem. I think my computer's too slow for iTunes 9.

  • How do you get back to your mail from an Internet link?

    I am going thru my emails on my iPad and one email may have a link to an Internet site and I click on it - which takes me to the Internet.  How then do I get back to my mail?  Right now I have to press the Home key to get to my main screen and then click on the Mail app again to re-open it.  Is there any easier way?

    The iPad on the left is the iPad 1, on the right, the iPad 2.
    You will find MTG on the iPad 2 at Settings/General. And yes, KP is right, you must have upgraded the iPad 2 to iOS 5.

  • How do I get rid of phone contacts "From my Mac" so I can only see iCloud contacts

    Since I have upgraded to iOS 5 and now use iCloud for my contacts, how do I get rid of the From my Mac contacts on my iPhone and iPad?
    My contacts show groups from both my Mac and from iCloud.

    connect the iPhone to the mac, go to iTunes, select the iPhone, in the info tab uncheck the option to sync your contacts. sync now.
    Make sure you do a backup(of the iPhone and Mac address book) before you do this. you might need to play a bit with it. If you mess up you will be able to just restore.
    i had to try several things before i got the proper iCloud sync working without having to deal with duplicate contacts.

  • How do I get back iphone app information from a DELETED Time Machine Backup disk

    Hi People,
    here is what happened:
    I have been using an iPhone App (Audio Memos Free - The Voice Recorder) to record song ideas (I am a songwriter). I have been using it for years.
    I backed up my iphone to itunes, and backed up my mac on Time Machine. After a month or so I did a fresh OSX install on my mac, copied all of my files back from Time Machine into my mac, and tried to set up Time Machine. I was not able to do so, so I had to format the Time Machine Backup disk and doing a "fresh" mac Time Machine Backup.
    After a week or so, my iphone asks me something like "you do not possess the rights for one or more applications". do not know what i did, but after 1 minute my iPhone was wiped out of all my apps and app contents. I had also the icloud app sync, so i did not worry, recovered from icloud notes, contacts, and all other things. so i did another backup to itunes.
    Now i discover icloud did not recover or save the "Audio Memos Free" app content. I know the data are hidden into the Time machine Backup HD, but i do not know where to search for the itunes backup in it.
    I know it is in library, but library won't show up.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    PS there is a chance that, even without a data recovery, my latest itunes backup was containing these songs, but i do not know how to fish that out of the Time machine drive.
    Thank you in advance.

    I would email iTunes Customer Service:

  • How do i get back my missing photos from iPhoto?

    i accidentally moved my iPhoto application into the picture folder then clicked on iPhoto and it said create new folder and without thinking i clicked it and all my photos were gone, is there anyway i can get them back? if so how? PLEASE HELP

    The panel is showing you the default iPhoto Library that has been created when iPhoto prompted you to create a new photo library.
    And iPhoto does not seem to recognise any other library as iPhoto library. You did check the Trash, didn't you?
    Search your Mac for other iPhoto Libraries with Find Any File, see Old Toad's post here:
    Old ToadAug 24, 2014 5:49 PM Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?
    Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?in response to Stepspell
    Download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the file name. These are files common to all versions of  iPhoto libraries.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.

  • How can I get back my images,contacts from my lost ipod touch gen 5?

    A few days ago, someone stole my ipod. I used Find My iphone but I can't found it. But I had a lot of important photos in that ipod. I really really want to get them back. Please, give my some solutions. Without using Find my iphone.

    If you did not backup the contents to iCloud, there is no way to recover material from a lost/stolen iOS device.  You have to have it in your possession to get material off the iPod.

  • How do I get back to normal mode from safe mode and enable add ons again?

    I switched to safe mode to disable a few add-ons, but now I want to go back to normal mode. How do I do that?

    Firefox will open normally as long as you do not click the Safe mode link in the Start menu.
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    >In Firefox 4 Safe mode also disables plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and hardware acceleration (Tools > Options > Advanced > General)
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
