I just reformat my imac and my iPhoto is gone too. How can i get it reinstall back to my imac? :)

Hi,
Anyone can help me with this problem? I have no disc to reinstall back also. My imac orginally come with iphoto and stuff. i try to install via Appstore. but i need to pay instead, so i never do that. Please help

Unless you can find your install disk, you'll have to buy them from the App Store.
If they came with your Mac (pre-Lion), they will be on a gray disk that shipped with your Mac.
If you've misplaced those disks, I have heard that Apple will replace them for a small fee. Call AppleCare.
If your Mac came with Lion pre-installed, you should be able to download the apps from the App Store. From the About OS X Recovery article:
If you erase install OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion on a new Mac that shipped with OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion installed, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
After installation, start (up) from OS X.
Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
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 Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

  • I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone.  How can I get it back?

    I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone.  How can I get it back?

    What were you running before you updated? 10.10.2, or an earlier version of OS X (10.9 or earlier)?
    If 10.10.2, then iPhoto should still be on your machine. If not, then go to the App Store, purchased tab, and look for iPhoto, and download it (you'll need iPhoto 9.6.1 to run on Yosemite).
    If you never installed iPhoto from the Mac App Store, then you should contact AppleCare, who can probably help you out. That's the only option in this case; upgrading from 10.9 or earlier straight to 10.10.3 is a bad incidence of timing.

  • Hi, I upgraded from iOS 5.1.1, to iOS 6, and it's ridiculously slow, I can't sync to my computer, (manually manage music), and all of my photos were gone. How can I get my photos back? It says restoring photos, but it's said that for two days now!

    It just does't sync. I connect it to itunes, but nothing happens. Where it says how much space I have, it's just on ebig bar that says other. I can play my music on itunes, but not when i unplug it.
    All of my photos were gone, i took and saved them with my ipod.
    The photo app is saying restoring.
    What should i do?

  • When I switched computers my songs now cut off and don't play out.  How can I get my songs back to play fully that I purchased from ITunes over the past years?

    When I switched computers my songs now cut off and don't play out.  How can I get my songs back to play fully that I purchased from ITunes over the past years?

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

    Thanks for the help    

    Often when people think they've deleted an application, what's really happened is that they deleted its icon from the Dock. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Applications
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A to open the Applications folder. If the application is in that folder, drag it to the Dock (not to the Desktop or anywhere else.) The other Dock icons will move out of the way to make a place for it.

  • I had iphoto downloaded on my computer and now it's gone? how can I get it back?

    I used to have Iphoto on my mac and now it's gone?  How do I get it back or do I have to purchase it ?  thank you....

    Where have you looked for iPhoto?  Is it gone from your Dock or the applications folder?
    Have you searched with Spotlight? Enter iPhoto into the searchfield in the upper right corner of your screen and then look, if it will be listed in the "Applications" section of the list.
    What happenend, before iPhoto vanished? Did you upgrade any software?

  • I just acsidantly buy Aperture but i changed my mind. How can i get my money back?

    I just accidently bought Aperture from App store. However I changed my mind I how can I get my money back?

    Too late.  According to the Refund Policy of the App Store (which is the same for the iTunes Store), once you acquire it, it's like opening up the box and using it.  The product is loaded on your computer, and it's registered to you.  You know that almost all Apple Pro products have a 30 day trial policy, so you could have tried it for 30 days.

  • I have the iphone 4 and for some reason my contacts are now gone.  how can i get my contacts back.

    iphone4 and my contacts are now lost.  how can i get them back

    Contacts (if you've been using your phone as recommended) are on your computer (outlook, address book) or in a cloud service (Google, mobileMe).  Just synch them back.

  • HT1386 After last syncing between iPad3 and iMac, many books I have purchased have cloud symbol and won't open. Afraid to resync as one very large book didn't sync to iMac and afraid of losing it. How do I get these books back?

    1. After my last synching between iPad3 and iMac, most of my downloaded books have a cloud/arrow symbol and won't open. Most PDF files in iBook just disappeared. I am afraid to resync as a book I recently downloaded, which took up a big chunk of my 5GB download limit, doesn't appear on my computer and when I try to sync, I get the message that all my books will be replaced.
    2. Is there any way to read the books downloaded to my iPad on my iMac? Can I download an Ap for that?
    I am really disappointed in the interface between my iPad and iMac and the fact that I can't selectively delete items (music and photos) that I have synched to the iPad. It seems like Apple if going toward the Microsoft method of trying to do everything for you, rather than allowing the user to manually do things.

    In iBooks on the iPad every book you purchased will be on the Purchased Book collection. Those books that you have purchased in the past but for some reason are not actually on your iPad are still available in the bookstore. They will have the cloud symbol on the corner. You can tap on that book to download it again. You will not be charged for doing this.

  • I accidentally deleted iPhoto from my mac. how can i get my photos back?

    I deleted my iphoto aplication and tried to search in in the trash but it isnt coming up. Is there a way I can redownload it and still get all my photos back?

    If you just deleted the iPhoto application, you can reload it from the original source normally, but should back your library up.
    If you deleted the iPhoto library, you need to restore it from a backup or undelete it; if you choose to attempt to undelete it, don't write any more data to the computer until you do.

  • Ran a previous version of FF, then closed and ran regular (5.0) version, but some add-ons, toolbars, and other stuff has disappeared. How can I get this stuff back?

    I have been running 5.0 great for a while now, but today I tried downloading and running FF 3.6. As it was opening it stopped responding, but then I tried to force quit but then it worked and loaded up the pages I had open on 5.0 when I closed it.
    I then closed the 3.6 version and ran the 5.0. I noticed a few things were gone or different...
    ~Several add-ons/extensions and toolbars were gone. Some of them were: Adblock Plus, Read it Later (and all its saved pages), Stumble Upon toolbar.... and more I am not sure of...
    ~Some of the saved sessions in my Session Manager add-on were gone.
    ~FF 5 seems to not be asking if I want to save my pages whenever I quit.
    ~The settings for how my tabs appeared has changed also... Like the color of text and where a new tab goes when I click on a link (to the right of the current tab or all the way to the right)... I am not sure if this is because of an associated add-on/extension being deleted.
    UPDATE: I checked my profile folder and all of the extensions' data is all still there but FF5 is just not reading it correctly. (like adblock plus... I see the folder for it but FF5 doesn't have it on the add-on manager page when I run FF5) (The stumble upon toolbar folder is also in my profile folder but is not showing up in View->Toolbars when I actually run FF5)
    Any help would be extremely appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Thanks but I don't think this will help. Like I said, all of my add-ons were working fine and compatible until after running a previous version of FF. I am sure they are still compatible, but they are not working at all.
    I even checked my profile folder and all of the extensions' data is all still there but FF5 is just not reading it correctly. (like adblock plus... I see the folder for it but FF5 doesn't have it on the add-on manager page when I run FF5)
