I cant update iLife '08 at all

A couple days ago, when i last opened iPhoto, it said there was an update available. I naturally checked Software Update for the updates, but it said it couldn't find anything. I went on Apple's website and downloaded the updates manually. But when Installer opens, it says that it can't detect an eligible version of iPhoto/iDVD/iMovie/iWeb. Could anyone please explain how to fix this and/or tell me what the problem is?

There are typically two reasons for this
1 - you are trying to update an older version (iPhoto 2, 4, 5 or 6) with an iPhoto '08 updater - new versions are not updates - they must be purchased, or
2 - you have moved the iPhoto '08 application - it must be where the installer placed it at the root level of the Applications folder

  • Cant update ilife bundled updates!!!

    Hi,
    I am unable to update ilife bundled updates. Keeps saying "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (18)".
    These apps show in my purchases and it asks me to accept. However when I click accept..and enter my apple id and password it does nothing. NOTHING!!
    Tried calling apple support they made me do a few useless things none of which helped. Have been on the phone with them for about an hour now and they seem to have no clue. I thought this was a common problem and to think they would know what to do about it by now.!!!
    Tried deleting the .plist file and logging out and logging in with apple id etc. none of which seem to work!. Need an update to iphoto so i can photo stream pics from my iphone to my mac (mid 2011, software is up to date). Any help is appreciated.

    Have you used any of the three apps?
    If you use even one of these apps before you accept them, then as per their individual Terms of Use, they become as is apps, not usable on any other Mac and unable to be updated.

  • Cant update iLife apps that came preinstalled on mac

    Is there any reason why I can't update the preinstalled apps like Garageband and iphoto as they came preinstalled on the mac air...
    The app store is saying that I need to log in with teh account that purchased the software...

    Same problem.  Apple won't answer but says to get on this useless merrygoround.  As a five apparati Apple owner and stockholder, this ****** me off.  This is feeling very Microsofty these days.

  • I bought ilife 11 but cant update it. Is there any e-mail address which can i get help about ilife 11

    i bought ilife 11 but cant update it. Is there any e-mail address which can i get help about ilife 11?
    i bought it from Turkey website. apple.com.tr and i paid the price bu i cant update it and there are nothing i can do? i called the turkey's apple but they said i should mail this to apple.com. So, i didnt find any e-mail support address for ilife 11.
    what should i do? apple support center is really bad for unplanned situations.

    Apple doesn't have an e-mail address. Unfortunately you'll have to resort to snail mail, for anything that can't be answered by phone or the website. 
    iLife '11 has had no updates issued so far:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#ilife
    If it should ever get an update, it would likely be at that link.

  • I cant update all my apps, after i uploaded some photos to my mum's ipad. How do I change back to my ID. My iTunes refuses to update

    I cant update all my apps. I can only update one by one. This happened after I uploaded some photos to my mum's iPad. Her apps are all updated by iCloud. Now her Apple ID keeps popping up and does not allow me to Update All. How do I change it back to my Apple ID

    Hello there, jaygoh.
    It seems you are having issues downloading an application from the App Store. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s follow the steps for iTunes Store connectivity:
    First, try signing out of your account in Settings > iTunes & App Store. Once signed out, go ahead and restart your device. Once your device has restarted, sign back in to the iTunes Store and try to download the update.

  • Have v. 3.6.17, cant update as a message says I have Firefox running and to close it. What now, I do close all I can.

    I have v. 3.6.17, and cant update as a message comes on stating that another version of Firfox is running. I am instructed to close same. I can't find what they are talking about. Even Task Manager doen't show another firefox running.

    Are you looking at the "processes" tab in the Task Manager.
    '''Plug-in and tasks started by Firefox may continue after attempting
    to close Firefox''' The "X" in the upper right-hand corner closes the
    Window (same as Ctrl+Shift+W) but even if it is the last Firefox window,
    it does not necessarily close Firefox .
    The only '''proper way to exit Firefox''' is to use '''Exit''' through the
    File menu, not the "X" in the upper right corner of last Firefox window.
    In the Beta that would be Alt+F then X
    Use the '''Windows Task Manger''' to remove all running firefox.exe in the "'''Processes'''" tab of the Windows Task Manager, then restart Firefox.
    If Firefox will still not start, remove the parent.lock file from the profile which is created each time Firefox is started to prevent other Firefox tasks from running, see<br>
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use#Remove_the_profile_lock_file
    '''Avoiding Problems with close/restart'''
    :Use to close and restart Firefox after enabling or disabling an extension, switching to a new theme, or modifying configuration files, then you don't have to worry about delay or have to look in the Task Manager to see if Firefox is closed yet.
    Use keyboard shortcut "'''Ctrl+Alt+R'''" or a file menu option.
    *"'''Restartless Restart'''" extension for Firefox 4.0+ only (2 KB download ) <br>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/249342/

    The reapair shop is probably responsible. And now that you took it to a third party and not to apple store, Apple will not touch your phone at all. So you will probaly have to buy a new one or go back to the reapir shop and hope they can fix it.

    My Ipad 2 cant find my HP3050A j661b airprint printer although the printer is connected to the same wireless network and software updates are current on all and my other laptops also work properly with this printer.further more it used to work with my IPAD2 before when I used the old wireless router but now I changed it to HAUWEI HG231f but I set everything in the same way it was. Thanks in advance.

    When you change to the new router, did you re-run the CD to re-set the new SSID and password to the printer.
    Otherwise your iPad will not be able "talk" to your printer.

  • Cant update apps. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it. i can download apps,music with present mac note book but not apps. how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    cant update apps on my mac or iphone4. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it  . i can download apps and music.  how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • My credit card was stolen,since i cancelled the card and waiting for a new one i cant update any of my apps because of the billing info is incorrect,how can i update without my new card?

    my credit card was stolen,since i cncelled and waiting for a replacement i cant update any apps or dl any apps because the billing info says its incorrect now,how can i update and dl while waiting for my new card?

    It would be best for you to open iTunes, sign in and view your account. If all the purchases were paid already instead of entering your new card information, it will give you an option for "NONE" as a payment method. Again this is not applicable of you have a pending charges with iTUnes

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
