I can't load Family pack of original iWork on a new iMac. I've only used 3 of 5 computers. It keeps telling me to go buy it. What's going on?

I have a 2007 iMac with the original version of iWork. I purchased a family pak (5 computers) and have only used 3. My wife just got her first Mac. When I put the disc in, I am unable to load it without being directed to purchase it again. I know it's about 4 years old, but what the heck. Any advice?

An old version of iWork may not be compatible with Mac OS X 10.6, so that might be why you're getting the message. What version of iWork do you have?
Regards.

Are you using Safari? Have you tried an alternative browser - Chrome, Firefox?
Edit: What's the website - maybe it's down.

Is Lion going to be offered on a disk similar to the previous operating systems where you can get a family pack? of like 5 instals?

You don't even need the family pack anymore! Just use the same Apple ID to connect to the App Store on each computer and upgrade... pay for it once and you can use it multiple times. According to the Lion page on www.apple.com, this is intended, and...
According to the App Store OS X Lion 10.7 License Agreement Section 2 Paragraph B:
B. License from Mac App Store. If you obtained a license for the Apple Software from the Mac App Store, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License and as permitted by the Mac App Store Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms and Conditions (http://apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/) ("Usage Rules"), you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:
( i ) to download, install, use and run for personal non-commercial use one (1) copy of the Apple Softward directly on EACH Apple-branded computer running Mac OS X Snow Leopard or OS X Snow Leopard Server ("Mac Computer") that you own or control;
et al.
This means that you can buy OS X Lion with your Apple ID, and any Mac you own (or have control over) that is legally defined by the license agreement can be connected by the same Apple ID and upgraded.

Thinking of purchasing an Apple Time Capsule to work with my new iMac. I only want it for general family use. Any comments?

It should work just fine. You can see user reviews on Apple's web site, here is the URL:

There is an exclamation pt. next to several songs in itunes. When I click on that song, it can't locate it. When I click on locate, it pops up a menu with numerous files. I'm afraid to click on the files. What's going on?

There is an exclamation pt. next to several songs in itunes. When I click on that song, it can't locate it. When I click on locate, it pops up a menu with numerous files. I'm afraid to click on the files. What's going on?

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

Just recently on my IPad I can't update my App. I keep getting the error message "invalid Address" what is going on?

Just recently on my IPad I can’t update my App. I keep getting the error message “invalid Address” what is going on?

There are a number of threads about this - it looks like Apple recently updated their address validation. Some people have recorded success by :
ensuring that their iTunes account address is exactly the same as appears on their credit card bill
putting something in the second line of the address (including just copying the first line)
expanding abbreviations e.g. St to Street, Ave to Avenue etc (or conversely abbreviating)
putting apartment or suite number on the second address line

HT5621 Hi I'm using my wife's email for my apple Id but now she has got an iPhone we r both using the same one ive tried gettin my own using my own email but it keeps telling me my email is already in use how can that be????

Hi I'm using my wife's email for my apple Id but now she has got an iPhone we r both using the same one ive tried gettin my own using my own email but it keeps telling me my email is already in use how can that be????

Are you trying to set up your own iDevice and that is why you want your own Apple ID?
Do you realize that any content that you have already purchased using her ID will still have to be used if you want to update apps or download purchases again for free? ITunes and App Store content is tied to the ID used to make the purchase. Furthermore, if you use her ID to download a purchased app for free on your own device, you can lock yourself out of your ID for 90 days.
Back to the question at hand .... Did she use your email address as the rescue email address for her Apple ID?

Help, My iphone can't load any of the downloaded application ever since i updated my phone last night through itunes!! And its telling me that it is error 1004!

HELP!! My iphone 4 can't load any of the downloaded application such as Facebook and games etc ever since i updated my phone last night through itunes and it indicates that it has an error 1004.
Anyone has any idea how to fix this ?

If the error occurred during the update you need to redo the update, as it corrupted something on your phone. Knowledge Base article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275 says:
Error 1004 and 1013: This error may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being blocked, redirected, or interrupted. Adjust your hosts file or security software to ensure that connections to gs.apple.com are not blocked. If the issue persists, try restoring on another computer with a known-good connection. If this restore is successful, you will need to contact whoever supports your install of the operating system and security software installed on your computer for assistance. If your hosts file redirects requests to gs.apple.com, you may choose to follow Can't connect to the iTunes Store, in the "The 'hosts' file may be blocking the iTunes Store" section.
This usually happens if you have used a hacking program like Tinyumbrella on your computer sometime in the past.

Can I install Ilife 8 onto my macbook from my new iMac install discs?

I am confused!
I was in an Apple retails store yesterday checking out the new iMacs as I will shortly be buying one, a 24" 2.8Ghz model. As this will come loaded with Leopard and iLife 08 I was also planning on buying the DVD's of both ready to install on my Macbook so that both computers would be running the same versions of the OS and iLife. However, the salesperson I was discussing this with told me that I would be able to install iLife 08 onto my Macbook from the install disc that comes with my new iMac as the software is licenced to the user not the machine, thereby saving me from having to buy it.
Is this true? And what about Leopard?I always thought that the software discs only worked on one machine, i.e. the one it came with.

Here's a link to the Apple user agreement for iLife 08.
http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/ilife08.pdf
Item 2 states that you may install iLife on ONE Apple Branded Computer. The family pack allows you to install on up to 5 in the same household.
The discs that come with your new iMac are specific to the iMac and should not be installed onto any other Mac. The retail version of Leopard can be installed on any Mac...but once again one license one machine.

Jam Pack: Symphony Orchestra not working on new iMac with Maverick

Hi,
i received my new iMac 27 inch Haswell with Maverick installed.
I migrated most of the stuff i need but it seems the Symphony Orchestra Jam Pack instruments weren't migrated to Garageband.
Now i read somehwere that this JamPack doesn't work on Maverick.
Is there a way to download the Jam Pack again? I can't find them anywhere. Why doesn't Apple sell these in the store?
I can't try to install the JamPack again since i don't have a CD Rom drive in my iMac...
How can i restore these instruments on my Garageband?? I need them.
Thanx

MainStage is for setting up a live performance and performing music. It has many instruments and effects. GarageBand is for mixing song arrangements and creating finished songs.
I have never really used MainStage, just for playing my guitar. I bought it to get current installers for the JamPacks.
After you install MainStage, you need to open and run it at least once, to download the full set of instruments and loops.
This will bring up this panel:

Can I install a Samsung 840 Pro 256GB into the new iMac late 2013?

Hi There,
1)   Can a Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD be installed in the new iMac late 2013 model? (My plan is to remove the existing 1TB HDD and replace with the Samsung SSD)
1.1) I have heard somewhere, even though it will fit, Apple's logic board firmware will pick up the non-apple product and render the iMac useless until original hard drive is reinstalled.
1.2) If it will work, will I loose my warranty on iMac? Note, the SSD will be installed by an Apple authorized workshop.
2)     Can 2x 2.5 sata drives be installed in the iMac?
2.1) I know the iMac only has 1x SATA and 1x PCIe slot, but can one not install a PCIe - SATA converter and also a 2x 2.5 drive bay in the place of the existing         3.5" drive?
Thanks for your assistance.
Regards,
asdutoit

I checked on the Samsung website and the 840 Pro is OSX compatible and should work in your MBP.

Can't open After Effects (version 11.0.2) in New iMac (OSX Version 10.9.4)

Just bought new iMac (OSX Version 10.9.4) and downloaded After Effects (version 11.0.2).
