How to reinstall photobooth by using Pacifist?

I lost my photobooth and want to reinstall by using pacifist.But I can't find any files related to photobooth.So how do I need to do to reinstall photobooth?

How to Use Pacifist to Replace Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist from VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)

D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!

2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
20 files were scanned.
20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk.
0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package.
0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.

  • How to reinstall Photobooth on Lion ?

    I've deleted the software by mistake.
    I've just updated my OS with Lion.
    How can I reinstall it ?

  • I somehow lost i-sight, how do I use Pacifist to recover it?

    What is the procedure to recover i-sight using Pacifist?  Is this the best way?  Thank you

    As repeated, iSight is the camera, iChat or PhotoBooth are Apple's software that takes advantage of those.
    You might have a problem in OS X, which if your running 10.6, you have the option of re-installing 10.6 over your 10.6.x with the 10.6 install disks.
    Simply stick it in and reboot holding the c key down and select your boot drive and install, reboot holding the Shift key down, log in and immediatly Software Update to 10.6.8 and reboot.
    Some third party software might not function as their kext files were kicked out of OS X, so reinstall from fresh sources.
    Just so happens when you do this, you also replace OS X, iChat and PhotoBooth at the same time, so it should cure all your potential ills in one shot.
    I think with iChat and I know with PhotoBooth it has to resinstalled with a new OS X, something to do with special rights to access the camera, there was a pretty nasty home/school spy scandle in Phillidelpia a few years back.
    (You can also do this with 10.7, command r boot on a fast internet connection and re-install Lion from Apple's servers.)
    As always backup your data off the machine before proceeding.

  • Reinstall bluetooth using pacifist

    can anyone advise on how to reinstall BT using pacifist + install disk?
    regular system profiler shows BT "No information found"
    but when I boot from OSX install disk it shows up just fine in system profile.
    hence I'd like to reinstall the BT alone.
    I've got pacifist but it shows a bewildering array of files for BT - I don't know where to begin...
    thanks

    Barry and RonL,
    thanks both for your suggestions. I had already been through PRAM zap and preference farming per suggestions on another thread re. bluetooth decay.
    Further to above, threads suggested limited reinstall using pacifist - and while that may work for some sections of the OS, bluetooth seems to sprawl through many different areas of the disk making it far from straightforward.
    So, rather than cause more damage and headaches, I did a full reinstall and archive a few days ago. Pita for apps, but Bluetooth came back smiling, as expected.
    One piece of advice to others in similar predicament: don't assume it's a hardware problem if/when BT disappears. System profiler can be a useful tool in this situation on several levels.

    This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
    Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Can anyone tell me how to install logic 8 on lion using pacifist step by step in simple terms please

    can anyone tell me how to install logic 8 on lion using pacifist step PLEASE

    Both psd and tiff are the two formats to use for your master file. Saving as a jpg will flatten the layers and remove any trace of transparency. Tiff has an option in the save as dialog box to compress the file.
    If you find it necessary you could zip older files for archiving.
    Once the raw file has been opened in photoshop, it is no longer considered a raw file, as photoshop has no way to save to that file. Which is why you need to save as a psd or tiff.
    That said, camera raw dialog box and Lightroom will save its edits to a sidecar file, which is why they are considered to be non-destructive. Since you can delete the side care file and start again. It is the combination. Of the raw file and the side car file that ends up in photoshop. Which is one reason why it is recommended to do as much as you can in camera raw or Lightroom first. But the latest version of photoshop allows your photoshop filets be loaded into camera raw as a filter. So that recommendation is not as important as it once was.

    Hi,
    You don't need to uninstall it, but you can drag the old application to the trash when you're sure you're through with it.
    I hope you have the full Logic 8 - if you have bought the upgrade from 7 to 8 you would still need the XS key to install it.

  • Trying to use pacifist to reinstall mail and textedit

    I am trying to use pacifist to reinstall my mail application and textedit, however I can't seem to find either application when I search for it on my disks using pacifist. All I come up with is mail.applescript which doesn't seem like an application to me. Am I looking for the wrong thing, can someone tell me where to find these to applications so I can install them. Obviously I am not good with computers so step by step would very helpful.

    It may be easier to insert the Installer DVD and open the Optional Installs folder then double-click on the Optional Installs. mpkg file. You can then locate Mail in the Applications section. Check the box then click on the Install button.
    TextEdit can be found on the Installer DVD here: /System/Library/Installation/Packages/Essentials.pkg. Open the Essentials.pkg file with Pacifist and find TextEdit in the Applications folder. Select TextEdit then click on the Install button in Pacifist's toolbar (far left icon.)
    To go directly to the folder select Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste in the following: /Volumes/Mac OS X Install DVD/System/Installation/Packages/.

  • How to reinstall Mountain Lion after Mavericks OS has been installed without using the time machine?

    Hi, I upgraded to Maverics a few weeks ago, and since than my computer has been very slow. It NEVER happened before. Now, I want to go back to Mountain Lion, but I didn't back up my computer with the time machine. I'd appreciate if anyone could tell me how to reinstall Mountain Lion again over Maverics? Thanks a lot for your help!

    You will need either a bootable flash drive with Mountain Lion to install, if you have one, or reinstall Snow Leopard if your computer can boot Snow Leopard. Or you can use Internet Recovery to reinstall the original version of OS X that came with the computer. In any event you will have to repartition and reformat the drive.
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion on a New HDD/SDD
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    It would appear that your system is somewhat mangled, and it is time for some general 'servicing'.
    Start here:
    Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

    An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:

    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

    Now try downloading and installing again.

  • HT5275 how to reinstall safari for lion?

    I have deleted safari from lion and wish to reinstall.
    Please advise how can i go about reinstalling safari?

    An alternative is to install ana application called pacifist which has a free trial
    It can allow you to install small portions of the os
    To use Pacifist, the OP will need to download the OSX, anyway, to access the .dmg installer. If that is the case, then the safest and most reliable course of action is to just reinstall the entire system, considering the complexity of Safari and it's integration with so many other parts of the OSX.

  • HT1338 How to Reinstall ilife apps and ICal from Original disc...

    My hard drive crashed. With my new hard drive, I somehow no longer have Calendar (iCal), Pages, Numbers or Keynote. I have my original discs from getting my computer July of 2011. How do I reinstall the apps I've lost? I don't want to mess up any other data!
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the suggestion. I unpacked iCal from the CD using Pacifist. However the iCal application still does not work. I get an error message saying the iCal version 3.0.8 does not run with the current version of the operating system (OS X 10.6.8).  I have also tried reinstalling a copy of iCal (version 4.0.4) from a Timemachine backup made a month or so ago - but same problem it won't run and the error message says its the wrong version for my operating system.  Worse still iMail has stopped working as well and offers up a similar error message (iMail version doesn't work with this version of the OS).  This is baffling because the entire operating system and bundled applications were re-installed in January this year by a Mac dealer when the hard drive was replaced.  The Timemachine backup was done in May when everything worked so it is hard to understand why restoring the same version of iCal does not work now.
    Seems Macs are great when they work but impenetrable for the average user when things get out of sync.
