How do you register iLife software that came preloaded on an iMac (I cannot seem to locate the Marketing Part Number) on the DVD?

I just purchased an iMac with iLife and iWork preloaded.
I wanted to register the software, but I cannot seem to locate the Marketing Part Number (MPN). Help states the MPN is located on the product packaging near the barcode. I can locate the barcode on the sleeve of the disc, but the MPN does not seem to be there. Help states it starts with a letter and has the format M#####/#. I have tried to enter each set of numbers shown, but all are invalid.

You registered it when you registered the computer. Apple software bundled with a Mac can't be registered separately from it; that service is for standalone purchases only.

How do I re-install software that came pre-installed on my mac?

How do I re-install software that came pre-installed on my mac?
I bought my first mac in 2003, in 2004 I bought MS Office: Mac. In 2006 I got another mac, this one (I'm pretty sure but not 100% certain) came with MS Office pre-installed. I'm still using that computer I got in 2006 (writing this message on it right now) and have been having problems with Word and have had no luck with trying to fix it. I recently came across my original installation disk for the version of MS Office I got in 2004. So, when I became frustrated trying to fix Word I just grabbed this old installer and reinstalled office, assuming in that moment that it was the same version I had been using. I got it all installed and working and went to load up my most recent document that I've ben working on and it won't load because it's a docx file. I don't know where else I would have gotten a new version of word, I'm not one for unnecessary updates and updating a word processor is about as unnecessary as it gets. I MUST have had a newer version of word pre-installed on my computer, because any time I've ever tried to open word files from this computer on my older mac the files wouldn't work, so any time I need to do that I either make a PDF or email myself the text.
Anyway, I'm assuming that apple has all my registration info on file and can confirm that I bought the software, can they provide my an installer? My other concern is that this computer was a christmas gift and was purchased by my dad, though I don't know whose name is on any kind of registration that may exist. The problem here is that he died, so I'm concerned that apple won't support my product because the original "owner" is deceased, even though I don't think he ever so much as laid a finger on this computer or even looked at it more than twice after he gave it to me.
What is my best course of action here?

I would have to presume the 2006 Mac was used, and came with Office 2008 on it from the seller. Apple has never offered Office as a bundled purchase, and it is not pre-installed with any Mac.
Since you have the disk for Office 2004, the activation key should be on a sticker on the CD/DVD sleeve. As I recall, anyway. I no longer have my 2004 copy to check. If you have the key, it doesn't matter who it originally belonged to. You can still enter it and activate the software.
Once you have that installed, you can install the XML converter for Office 2004. That will allow you to open from all newer Windows and Mac versions of Office. The only things that won't necessarily convert are features that don't exist in Office 2004, and so can't be translated correctly, or at all.
Microsoft is saying Office 2016 for Mac and Windows should be available for the official release sometime either late summer, or early fall. So hold off purchasing a new version if you can. MS offers to reduced upgrade price for Office. You'd pay full price for Office 2011, and then again for Office 2016.
And just to note. Office 2008 and Office 2011 work fine in Snow Leopard.

Software that came on computer deleted

How do I reinstall a software that came with my computer if I by put it in trash and empty trash.

Depending on your OS version you might have a software restore CD/DVD. That CD/DVD was created only to restore software. There is no OS on it.
If not, then insert your MAC OS X restore DVD, open it and double-click on install bundled software only. Thet should restore the defaul apps that came with your machine.

How do you delete an iBook that never completely downloaded? I want it gone

I'm having the same problem. The book downloaded in iBooks on the computer, but not on the iPad. It seems to be stuck. When I try "Edit" in purchased books, I can't select the book that hasn't completely downloaded. I've tried synching manually, deselecting it, reselecting it, but nothing works. I've done a hard restart on the iPad a couple of times but I still can't get rid of it.

How do i delete an app that came with the latest 8.2 software update?

Since you can't delete apps that are part of iOS, you should try the same thing I do. I create a folder which I call Worthless and move to the last page of my iPhone. I then put all the apps that Apple includes with iOS into that folder. With the name Worthless, I never even tempted to look in there again. That is about the only thing you can do with worthless apps that are included with iOS.

Troubleshooting after reinstalling the software that came with my macbook

Hi, I'm a new user of mac products and my macbook crashed refusing to start up (it would just turn on and keep loading till froze).
I followed exactly the steps "Problem meet solution" in the little manual and had to use the Mac OS X Install Disk 1.
The disk utility repaired the HD volume (error found: incorrect block count for file flatfile.db - should have been 708 instead of 354), then still couldn't start up on HD. Did it all over again, repaired HD again (this time error: incorrect block count for file .store.db - should have been 5202 instead of 2601), but this time went further selecting "continue" and reinstalling Mac OS X from the discs that came with my macbook. Reinstalled - successfully finally - by chosing the option "previous settings archived in new file".
The only problem i had was at login ... it would not recognize my user password... which was the same one since i first turn on my new bought macbook. Anyways, i used again the disc 1, selected change my password and this time i managed to sign in with the new one (same old user).
1)NOW, question: do i have to re-update my software? Because before I had Mac OS X 10.5.2 (i always kept my computer up to date) and now, after reinstalling the software I have Mac OS X 10.5
or i should be able to reactivate them from the Previous Systems file (in this case how do i do that?
2) Can't figure still out my master password that unlocks the file vault plus i can't activate again the root admin user from Directory Utility ... i click it but doesn't do anything. Why is this and how can be sorted out?
my macbook details:
Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook3,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MB31.008E.B02
SMC Version: 1.24f2
Could someone help me with this? Please note it's my first time troubleshooting a computer ever and that my knowledge is not that vast in the field ... so please use simple steps/terms that i can follow.
Thank you,
Laurie

Thank you very much for answering so prompt to my questions.
1) yes, i will take all the updates. and ok, i won't touch the previous systems file
2) in regards to master password ... i tried all the passwords i ever used. not sure it's just "forgetting". Reason: as I mentioned before: The only problem i had after reinstalling the software was at login ... it would not recognize my user password... (and I add, nor the master password) which was the same one since i first turn on my new bought macbook.
As i couldn't sign in, used again the disc 1 to reset my administrator password and it did save but with the notice that i should "use the keychain access to reset the password for users login" .This time i managed to sign in with the new one (same old user). Then I went to the keychain clicked login and changed the password for keychain login. Did i do good? do I have to change something else. please let me know as don't really know.... i just follow help advice.
3)in regards to root password ... i had it also before ... using help on "security" issue ... as i connect to different networks ... i read that one could help ... please understand that i'm learning as i go, as this time i don't have someone else to do those things for me. so why doesn't it activate anymore? and why would it be better not to activate it?
4)speaking of learning, from my initial post where i posted the errors that my disk utility found ... what do u think caused my computer to freeze? i was browsing on safari facebook as well as I had both yahoo messenger and skype opened... first the messenger froze, then crushed, then i restarted it , then froze, then all the rest froze, without responding to force quit.
5) after reinstalling the software, i still have yahoo messenger and other applications.... is that safe to use now? they are still in my applications
and last 6) did I do everything correct when my computer would not start up?
thank you
laurie

I can't download the software that came with my ipod

I'm having trouble downloading the software that came with my photo ipod 20G even though i have windows 2000 professional. It comes up with a message when the cd starts loading saying that i need a higher form of windows. I think it might have something to do with the SP4 business but I don't even know what that means, let alone how to find out whether or not I have it. And if i don't, does anyone know how i could and would it be as difficult as changing to windows XP. (My mum said it cost her $1300 changing it at work)
Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You can download the software here...
iPod Updater Download Page
iTunes Download Page
But, I am not sure how that helps since you need the admin password...

Is there a way to enable 3D display outside of the software that came with the device?

Hello,
I just bought this device and my primary use for it is the 3D function, but unfortunately there is no option to enable or disable the 3D function outside the set of software that came with it. For example in Cyberlink Power DVD 3D works fine, TriDef software creates depth from games but that is not actually what I need. I need just to have an image or a sequence in standar over-under or side-by-side formats and to enable the 3D effect on the display.
Some third party software, Stereoscopic player for example recognizes the monitor fine and displays the 3D content normally. But what I need is to display a full screen image from After Effects so I could have a live preview of the 3D, is there a way to somehow engage the 3D mode by some utility or driver?

MHetlerovic, welcome to the forum.
I read the manual thoroughly and it doesn't appear that there is any way to access the 3D mode without using some type of program.

I guess the problem come from me or I really need those contacts before he calls me for it. I'll try some method that I got from some responders on your support website. Do you have or can you recommand any software that can solve this problem?

One more thing. I just update my iphone that my boss gave to me but it seems to be like it giving me some trouble. My iphone was updated not too long and was successful. I try to lock into it and it telling me emergency call. I plug it to my itune and it telling me that the sim card is not valid or supported. So I inserted my sim card that I usually use to call and it still saying the same. Please help me get into it.

And as far as paying for phone support, here are a few tips:
If you call your carrier first and then they route you to Apple, you usually don't have to pay for phone support.
If you are talking to Apple and they ask you to pay a support fee, ask if you can get an exception this time. That usually works once, but they keep track of the times you've been granted such an exception.
If you still end up paying the support fee, that fee only applies if it's not a hardware related issue. In other words, if it can be fixed by just talking over the phone and following Apple's instructions, then the fee applies. But if your device is deemed to have a hardware failure that caused the issue, then the fee should not apply, and you can ask for it to be waived after the fact.
This forum is free, and almost all of the technical support articles the Apple tech advisors use are available on this website. Literally 99% of what they can do over the phone is just walking you through the publicly available support articles. In other words, you're paying the fee to have them do your research for you. It's like hiring a research consultant to go look stuff up in the public library so you don't have to. You're capable of doing it; you'd just rather pay someone to do it for you.
It's like Starbucks. You know how to make coffee. Everyone knows how to make coffee. And Starbucks coffee isn't any better than what you could make at home for far less. But you want the convenience. So you're really paying a convenience fee. Milk is more expensive at 7-Eleven than it is at the grocery store... because it's a convenience store.

Can I copy a DVD with software that came pre-installed?

Lenovo 3000 J115/7387A11 Desktop.
My wife had a bunch of old movies recorded on a DVD. She would like to have an additional copy of the DVD and since my Lenovo has a DVD burner wants me to make a copy of the DVD.
Does anyone know if the software that came with the Lenovo can do this?
Thanks for any help.

You shouldn't have any problems whatsoever copying the DVD. The supplied software can do this.

How do you update computer software to mac os x 10.8

how do you updaye comp software to mac os x 10.8? i have 10.5.8

Upgrading to Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
         7. Xserve (Early 2009)
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
     Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
         See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.
     For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.

Software that came with my Palm T/X

My T/X came with Documents to go on the disk. Does anyone know where you can download the software that came with the Palm T/X. I lost my disk when I moved
Post relates to: Palm TX

Hello mgrschizo, Welcome to the Palm Support Community.
There is no legal way to download the Installation Disk for the TX, due to the fact you've already mentioned - it contains copywritten software that is not "free for the taking". You can purchase the latest version of Docs to Go from Dataviz.com.
Usedpdaparts.com appears to still have some of the disks for sale though:

Problem with software that came with Pima Mx 472 printer

I installed my image garden software that came with printer. No problems till tonight when I opened software to scan some photos. Before I could scan the first photo, the program crashes. I reopened and scan 1 photo. Program crashed. I reopened 3rd time, scanned to more photos. While renaming the first photo, program crashed.
Verison is 2.1 My computer is win7 64 bit. Anyone else having same problem.

My assumption is that since you're not on the Verizon network currently and you don't have access to the network, you can't OTA the update.
And since you don't have the USB data cable, you won't be able to connect your phone to your computer to update. My best suggestion... Get a data cable. There should be someplace nearby you in Germany where you can get an inexpensive data cable.
Then go about backing up your phone with the desktop manager and then update via the DM as well.
No, you can't be on TV.
Yes, this camera is heavy..
Go bother the reporter...I'm busy!!
