How do I install iMovie '06 on my iMac?

I have the original iLife '06 and am having a problem installing iMovie '06 on my iMac 3.06, 2GB, running Mac OSX 10.5.8. I thought I had installed it, but when I booted it, this message popped up. "You cannot open the application “iMovie HD” because it is not supported on this architecture". I tried to install it again, using the "custom" install, but the name is gray and it cannot be selected. Could someone state the step by step installation instructions. I must be missing something.
Thanks, Rick

I tried the easy way as suggested by Silly rabbit and installed iMovie '06, but it altered iDVD, and now iDVD will not launch. The way I did it was: 1. booted the iLife '06 installation disk; 2. Moved iMovie '09 and iMovie '08 to the desktop; 3. Selected iMovie '06 from the "Custom" install option; 4. and clicked "Install". While iMovie '06 installing, I saw the iDVD icon flash a few times. After installation, I moved iMovie '09 and '08 back into the application folder and all three iMovie programs booted up, but iDVD did not. Help!

  • How do I install iMovie on my iMac?

    I recently bought a new iMac computer.  I own a MacBook Pro and purchased iMovie and about three other apps on this device.  When I tried to sync all of my apps to the new iMac I noticed that iMovie (and the three or so other apps I bought on my MacBook Pro) does not appear in my iTunes library.  Also, when i go to the apps store to search for iMovie, it states that it's already 'installed' and won't let me select it.
    My question: How do I install iMovie (which I've already purchased) on my iMac when it doesn't appear in my iTunes library?
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I tried to redownload the app - but was not given that option.  When I search and find the app in the app store, it states that the app has been installed and won't let me select it for download.

    Hmmm? A quick google search for external optical readers turns up many in the $20-$40 (USD) range. Didn't convert to £ or include any VAT charges, but you should be able to get something significantly cheaper than £70. That's your simplest solution.

    Serial numnbers are platform specific so you will not be able to use it for the Mac if it was initially designated for a PC.  YOu will need to perform a platform swap.  See the following for information:
    Change product platform or language
    You can swap languages/platforms for a latest version product if you follow the instructions at the following link:

  • How do I install iMovie HD and iDVD on a new iMac?

    The improvements provided by iDVD 7 over version 6 are not confined to themes.
    Happily having two version of iMovie is easily achieved, but it has to be done backwards.
    Delete iMovie 11 (just drag it to the trash). Now install iMovie 6 from the iLife 6 install disks. Update it to iMovie 6.0.3.
    Now re-install iMovie 11. This automatically moves iMovie 6 into a folder it creates in your Applications folder called iMovie Previous Version.
    Then reinstall iMovie 11.
    iMovie 6 works great with iDVD 7.
    Now you have them both, and you can have both in the Dock as well.

  • How do i install iMovie 6 onto my new imac with iLife 8?

    I have a new imac with iLife 8 installed with Leopard.
    I can't get used to the new iMovie 8 and want to instal iMovie 6 (which i am used to and find great).
    Can anyone recommend how i can do this?
    I don't want to change the other iLife apps, only iMovie 6.
    Also the new imac is not at home and not connected to the internet, is there anyway i can do this without being online? can i download a DMG on a different mac and instal on the new one?
    Thanks very much

    no.
    follow advice given here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2281
    basicly: think twice before setting any checkboxes and hitting any 'install' button
    I would try the installer disks of your G5.. probably contains iMHD6 ..

  • How do I install iMovie 11 on Mavericks?

    I have a new, late model iMac, which is a great machine, but the new iMovie 10 does not have chapter markers. I would like to install iMovie 11(which does have chapter markers)  in a folder within the appications folder. When I try to install the program, however, iMovie is grayed out and I can not install it. Is there a way to install it on an iMac running Mavericks?

    Pacifist worked great! It is shareware, and the author requests a 20.00 donation. I was able to use Pacifist to extract iMovie 11 (version 9.0) from my old iLife disc and install it to a folder that I created in my applications. I opened iMovie and it works perfectly, but I of course tried to run update, and was able to download iMovie 9.0.9 (the latest update), but it would not install. I got an error message saying, "You already have the lateset version of iMovie installed."(iMovie 10 (version 13)) Needless to say I just turned back to Pacifist and extracted the .pkg into the same iMovie folder I created. I was able to open the updated iMovie 9.0.9 and then just dropped the "old" 9.0 into the trash. Thanks for the great tip.

  • How do I install windows 7 on my iMac

    How do I install windows 7 on my imac

    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
         1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows
             XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  For Boot Camp
             4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
             instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
             installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
             installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the
             computer into OS X or Windows.
         2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
             Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software
             virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
             with OS X.
         3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
             or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that
             enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
         4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
             applications without having to install Windows.  The
             Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
         5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
             as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
             It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
             Fusion.
    Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.
