I don't have iphoto or imovie. Do I have to buy them, or can I download them for free?
Just bought a used mac mini that was restored back to factory settings. I don't have iphoto or imovie. Do I have to buy them, or can I download them for free? I saw in the app store that they were 14.99, but I thought they came with the computer. I'm new to the Mac world, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
They can be downloaded, but they are not free. You have a used computer. It was your responsibility to find out from the seller if they were installed. The seller gets the apps tied to his/her Apple ID. For you to use and update them would require you to purchase your own copies tied to your Apple ID.

Can I download it for free in iMacYou can download the iPad app to Mac's iTunes for safe keeping but it will not run on OS X.
You will need to download the app using Mac App Store whether paid or free to run on OS X. -
Can I download Keynote for free to ipad if I have it on my Macbook?
Can I download Keynote for free to ipad if I have it on my Macbook?
No, there are two different applications, one for Mac and one for iOS. They are priced and purchased separately, therefore if you have the Mac app, you do not qualify for a free iOS app. The iOS app is a paid purchase, unless you have bought an iPad in the last year.

I have an ipod touch 4th generation and an ipad. Today i bought fifa 12 which was on sale for a dollar on my ipad. But i want to download the game in my ipod touch but in the app store it says $1 instead of INSTALL. i used the same apple id!
you could jump on your comp and try and install it through itunes onto your ipod, if it works great but if it doesnt im sorry ill have to agree with the guys above me , youll have to get another copy off apple thats designed for your ipod

i accidentally deleted my iPhoto a while ago and don't have money to purchase it is there any way to get it back or download it for free?
Howdid you buy iPhoto originally? Did it come preinstalled on a new macwith MacOS X 10.7 or later? Then you can download it from the Purchased tab of the AppStore:
See: OS X: About OS X Recovery
Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X
If your computer came with OS X Lion or later and you erase your hard disk and install OS X, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
Choose App Store from the Apple menu.
Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted.
Click Purchases.
If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.
If your Mac came with an earlier system, reinstall iPhoto from the bundled application installation disk.
And if you bought an iLife disk, use that to reinstall. -
What's a good video app to use? I have iPhoto and iMovie, but it these wont let me do certain things, such as email a video. I also want to be able to make a dvd of my home movies. Any suggestions?
Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward. -
Hi,
I would like to copy my photos (from iphoto) and movies (from i movie) from my Mac book air to my imac in which I also have iphoto and imovie with photos and movies.
My goal is to have a unique source of photos and movies in my imac.
Thanks !
NicolasAs to iPhoto
Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
For iMovie support please post in the iMovie forum

I Have iPhoto on my macbook pro under a different account, how can I create/install my own iPhoto?
I Have iPhoto on my macbook pro under a different account, how can I create/install my own iPhoto?
The iPhoto application should be installed in the "Applications" folder and thus available for all users on your MacBook Pro.
When you launch iPhoto from a different account hold down the ⌥-key, to be prompted where you want to create a new iPhoto library for that account. By default an iPhoto Library would be created in the "Pictures" folder of that user account.

I have OS version 4.2.1, but can't download paid-for apps because they require OS 4.3. Also, it said in iTunes that my device was already up to date... Am I going crazy, or is there going to be an update?
I don't know what generation of iPot touch I have. If I am unable to download my paid apps because my iPod is too old, I'm not going to be pleased.
