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
Dave

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 6HD on a new iMac

    My neighbor just got a brand new iMac (nice!) and I was telling him that iMovie 6 has features that he would find helpful. He purchased iLife 08 when he bought his iMac, but when we download iMovie 6HD it won't let him install. Does anyone know a work around?
    Thanks

    We tried that but when the installer is launched it says that iLife 08 must be installed on the machine - and it is. Somehow this machine does not recognize that iLife 08 was preinstalled from the factory. Any thoughts?

  • Any way to get iMovie '04 onto my new iMac ?

    I loved iMovie '04.  I hate every iMovie thereafter.   I still have my iLife '04 disk and have tried to install iMovie '04 onto my new iMac without success.  I get a message that says it is no longer supported.   Is there any possible way to get my iMovie '04 back?   If not, are there any video making aps available that are similar to the iMovie '04?   I really don't need anything as 'meaty' as Final Cut Pro or as expensive.   I just want my old iMovie back.   Any help you can give me would be appreciated. 
    Thanks ~

    I believe I said there is a workaround for FCE 3......
    As for iMovie, I have and use iMovie HD - but I only have the .dmg download (v. 6.04) that Apple offered for dissatisfied iMovie 08 owners.
    However, one could try to install a retail iMovie HD from an iLife 06 disk (might find one on ebay) and it may or may not be automatically updated by Software Update. One would have to make sure NOT to have a later version of iMovie installed at that point. Since I've had no problem with the .dmg, I'd assume the installer is Intel.
    As for the install of the v. 6.04 .dmg: it requires that iLife/iMovie 08 be installed first. Then, install the .dmg; after that, run Software Update. If desired, can then install newer versions of iLife - any subsequent iMovie version installer should move the iMovie HD into a "previous version" folder and install the newer version in addition. However, I do not know if that works with a fresh v. 6 install - it does with the .dmg install - it may or may not remove the iMovie HD (the .dmg was configured specifically to work in addition to a newer version).

  • Having trouble installing iMovie HD on a new Mac with Mavericks

    I am having trouble installing iMovie HD on a new Mac with Mavericks.
    I know that iMovie HD works with Mavericks because we are using it on other Macs successfully.   However, those machines were upgraded starting with OS 10.6.   In other words, iMovie HD was installed on these Macs when the Macs had Snow Leopard.
    When I use the iLife 06 disc, I am presented with “You can't open the application “iLife 06” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I understand that iMovie HD  is universal, not PowerPC.  How can I get past this to install iMovie HD.
    Thanks

    OK, I made some progress.
    I used Pacifist (Shareware) to open the iMovie HD 6 install packages from the iLife '06 installer DVD (iMovie.pkg and iMovieThemes_Tiger.pkg) and let Pacifist install them to the right places.
    But doesn't iMovie HD 6 require QuickTime 7 to work ?

  • How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?

    How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?

    Do you own a copy of Aperture, perhaps bought for another Mac?
    If you have not bought Aperture, you need to buy it from the AppStore.
    But if you own Aperture and have it bought from the AppStore on another Mac, sign into theAppStore on your new iMac with the same AppleID you used to buy Aperure on your other Mac.  Then look at the "Purchased" tab of he AppStore. It show Aperture, with the "Install" button to the right. Simply press the "Install" button and download it to your new iMac.  Or if you have bought Aperture on a CD/DVD, run the installer from the CD/DVD on your new mac and immediately run software update to upgrade the Aperture 3. version to version that will run with Mavericks.

  • Install iMovie HD 6 on intel machine with iLife '09

    I recently bought a new intel iMac with iLife '09 preinstalled. On my old PowerMac G5, I had iLife '08 installed as well as the free iMovie HD 6 for iLife '08 folks who didn't like the new iMovie. I prefer HD 6 so would like to continue using it. In order to install iMovie HD 6, I need to have iLife '08 installed in its entirety. Is this going to mess up my already-installed iLife '09? iMovie is the only app for which I want to use an older version.

    iMovie 06.03 and iMovie 06.04 are believed to be the same program. Except in one area. iMovie 06.04 "looks" to see if you have iLife 08.
    If you have iMovie 06.03 you should be able to just copy it onto your new Mac.
    Look at what install disks you still have. Pacifist is an application for Mac OS X that opens up .pkg installer packages and lets you install individual files out of them. This is useful if you need to install just one file out of a package instead of the entire package.
    If you have iMovie 06 you CAN download the upgrades for it from Apple.
    Also post your question in the iMovie 06 area, you will find many iLife 09 / iMovie 06 users there.

  • Installing iMovie 6.04 on a computer with iLife 09

    Last year I installed iLife 08 on my G4 and its presence allowed me to download iMovie 6.04 from the Apple site for free while they were allowing that promotion. I have been working with it perfectly with many saved projects and it was my expectation that I should be able to install it on a new Intel iMac 10.5 as long as I have the iMovie 6.04 dmg Install Package.
    However there is some confusion about this maneuver where some have said that the dmg will only install when iLife 08 is present and not with iLife 09. It has been suggested that iLife 09 would first have to be trashed and then iLife 08 installed after which the iMovie dmg can then be installed. Then iLife 09 could be reinstalled overriding 08 but allowing 6.04 to coexist.
    It would be great to know the answer to this as it is crucial for me to be able to keep the 6.04 application. Has anyone downloaded the free 6.04 dmg package in this way on their computer and then subsequently reinstalled it on a newer computer with iLife 09?
    Thanks for any insight you can provide.

    Hi
    Ziatron writes in another answer/topic that to be able to install iM 6.0.4 You need to have
    iMovie'08 installed first (iMovie'09 doesn't help)
    So either You got to install this first (and it will interfere with iLife9)
    then iMovie HD 6.0.4
    then iLife9
    or
    Install iLife 6 (6.0.3) and then re-install iLife9.
    I have iMovie 6.0.4 and iMovie'09 running on same hard disk but I did upgrade
    naturally without any eventual reminents on HD from iLife9 first to find and discard.
    Seems more tricky then first observed.
    Probably I would get an external FireWire hard disk and install Mac OS and iLife
    on this to try first.
    PROBLEM. Not all FireWire hard disks are bootable eg Western Digitals.
    I use one from Lacie as test-bench.
