ILife gone after rewriting Lion?

I rewrote lion onto my computer that was shipped with snow leopard. I now do not have iLife on my computer how do I get it back? I never received a disk they were part of snow leopard with a free upgrade to iLife 11 when I bought them with my 27" iMac mid 2011 shipped with snow Leopard but had a free upgrade to Lion.

If your Mac originally came with Snow Leopard then it also came with DVD discs. One for the OS and one for Applications, the iLife programs and other things like the Apple Hardware Test.
If you no longer have these discs then you will need to contact Apple and order replacemnt disc for a nominal charge.
Other then that you will need to buy the current versions of the iLife apps from the MAS but there are 2 missing that come on the DVD. iWeb and iDVD are the ones missing.

IMovie and Garage Band gone after Mountain Lion upgrade.

I upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion by buying it in the itunes store and uploading it. Now, imovie and garage band are gone. I have nothing in My Purchases, as these came with my mac when I bought it, and I don't think I have a cd. Can I get these back without buying new?

As shldr said, iLife applications (iMovie, iPhoto, GarageBand, iDVD and iWeb) came preinstalled on your Mac, so if you made a clean install of Mac OS X, they were deleted because Mac OS X doesn't include iLife apps.
In order to install the iLife applications again, you need the Applications DVD that came with your Mac, so insert it and follow the steps to install your iLife applications. If you haven't got the DVD, call Apple to get replacement DVDs > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 After installing the applications, open Apple menu > Software Update to install the most recent version

AHH. Windows gone after mountain lion upgrade?

Hi!
I have a late 2011 model MBP. And i had the dual boot option with windows 8 (release preview) installed. On Thursday (4 days ago) i upgraded OSX to mountain lion. But just today i had the necessity to back to windows, and the option is not there anymore... when i boot up my mac and press the "option key" the only hard drives i get are the "macintosh HD" and the "recovery 10.8".
What happened to Windows?
I tried using boot camp to "remove windows 7" but after hours of "partitioning the Macintosh HD" i gave up and quit the application. All i wanted to do was remove windows completely and re-install it via boot camp again.
Now i am windows-less. HELP!!!
Do i have an option of going back in time (kind of like system restore on windows) and going back to OSX lion? all i want is to go back 4 days ago when things were working fine.
oh no... something tells me i'm gonna have to erase everything on my mac and start all over again

Hi "thiememd" Unfortunately, i couldn't find a way to keep Windows on my mac so i erased the entire partition (without bootcamp) by following the steps in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8wdy5qW8Z8
Luckily, i had done a back up on windows b4 mountain lion screwed me over. so now all i'm gonna do is re install windows once again.

ILife gone after ML Update

I bought a Macbook Air recently , came pre-installed with Lion with iLife.
As apple gave me free upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion , I updated sucessfully , wiping my SSD.
Now iLife is missing , and says $19.9 in the app store. What to do now ?

In the App Store try clicking on Purchases while holding down the option key. When you bought your mac iLife was pre-installed? Didn't you have to download from the App Store? Where did you buy your mac?

You would need an account for .Me or AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), etc. Then you add the account in Messages' preferences.

ILife gone after clean install

My computer came with iLife 09' for free. I installed Snow Leopard as a clean install and now it's gone. I know I should have thought of this before I did a clean install but now I'm out of luck. Is there any way I can get a copy of iLife 09' if I can give my order number and verify that I am the owner of my computer. iLife has become part of my everyday life and I really don't want to buy it at the Apple Store.

iLife is on the original install discs that came with your computer.
The version on those discs depends on when you purchased the computer. If you purchased a copy of iLife '09 and lost the disc, you may be able to get a replacement.

Where has the hard drive gone after installing lion?, where has the hard drive gone after installing lion?

I'm looking in finder but can no longer see the hard drive. Where has it gone to?

If I understand correctly, you can edit what is shown in the side bar within the "Finder Preferences".
under the "sidebar" tab tick the boxes of the things you want to be shown in the side bar of Finder.
under the "General" tab tick the boxes of the things you want to be shown on the desktop.
Hope this is what you are after and this helps.

How do I accept/purchase/download ilife programs after restoring Lion on a new Macbook Air using a new apple ID. App store will not let me do anything but accept; and it won't accept the apps with the new apple id

I wanted to restore my new Macbook Air (over the web).. using a new apple ID instead of the old one I originally used when I bought the computer from the apple store a month ago. By doing that, everything worked, but the iLife programs that originally came with it shows in the app store as "ACCEPT". When I try to accept them... it says they are assigned to another ID.. you must repurchase them for this ID.
I have no problem if I have to repurchase. I just can't find anywhere to do that. No matter what I do, I can only "ACCEPT".. which as I said earlier - don't work.
Thanks for any help

Midi in Safari gone after Mountain Lion update

I have a site that relies on midi files being played in the browser. Right up until before I upgraded to Mountain Lion I was able to play files with the .mid extension, now they just download instead or if embedded give me the 'missing plugin' message.
I have checked my installed plugins and I have quicktime 7.7.1 which doesn't list .mid as a supported extension anymore.
I can play .mid files through the QT 7 player which lists itself as Version 7.6.6 (1709) but under this is Quicktime 7.7.1 (2599).
So I don't know if the player is using something other than 7.7.1 or not. If it was just stock standard 7.7.1 then why has my .mid files stopped being played in the browser?
Is .mid support really being dropped if so does anyone know of a plugin to get back midi playback?
Regards

Well - here from Denmark.
Vi also need midi in our browsers.
A simple yes or no to the question - Will it ever come back to Mac?
Other vise we are going back to PCs in the future.
Thanks

ILife gone after Leopard clean install

Hi, I just made a clean install of mac os x leopard on an old macbook pro (2004). I just realize that it comes without iLife. How can I get iLife back? I don't have the original grey install dvd's anymore. Thanks.

Your pre-bundled software is reinstalled using the Optional Install package in the same-named folder on your original installer disc. Since you don't have them you have to purchase replacements:

Why ilife disappear after reinstalling mountain lion?

why ilife disappear after reinstalling mountain lion?

The 10.8.3 update should have left your iLife apps intact - did you do a clean install, erasing your drive? If so, then you should be able to go to the Mac App Store and download the iLife apps using the Apple ID with which you registered your computer.

After reinstalling lion, missing ilife, how do I get the program back?

after reinstalling lion, missing ilife, how do I get the program back?

No, you don't. Your new purchase is connected to your Apple ID, so you will not have to pay to purchase the iLife apps that came with the computer.

ILife reinstall after reinstall of OS Lion

I bought a new macbook pro in December it came with OS Lion. Due to an error in setup I needed to reinstall the OS. Installing from the recover disk was too slow so I bought the OS and created a bootable install disk. Is there a way for me to reinstall the ilife programs that came preinstalled on my computer without needing to purchase them?

I know with my Mac Mini after reinstalling Lion using the Internet Recovery, I logged into the App Store with my Apple ID and under Purchases, my iLife apps (iMovie, GarageBand, iPhoto) were available to reinstall.
Look under Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X Lion in this link.

I own a late 2009 Macbook Pro, and it keeps freezing after OSX Lion installation.

I own a late 2009 Macbook Pro, and it keeps freezing after OSX Lion installation. I will post my computer's 'specs' below. I installed Lion, from Snow Leopard, through the App store. The first week, it worked like a dream, and was loving my brand new computer, or so it seemed. I then began to run into problems, and I can't confirm this 100%, but I believe it was after I updated from 10.7.1, to 10.7.2.
The freezes are sporatic at best, and cannot be narrowed down to one app. I googled the issue about two weeks ago, and found a fix involving a temporary log-in, verifying the disk, restarting the computer holding CMD+R, and repairing the disk from there. That fixed the problem. For about three or four days. From there I brought my laptop to Best Buy, where I purchased the computer (start the groans, my dad wanted the accidental damage, and he was paying, there was no argument). My warranty there was still good, but all they were offering was to check my hard-drive, and possibly ship it out. That would not be good for me, as I am a High School student, who works online.
So I then decided to go to the Apple store, see what they said. They said a bunch of people had this problem, it would cost a lot to fix, as I would need a new Logic Board. This did not make any sense to me, as I knew it was Lion's fault, so why would they not make the L-2009MBP Logic Board compatible, and why are only a few people having this problem, well a lot more than a few, but I mean not everyone.
So I asked a friend about it, and we decided to run a back up, and erase the computer, and re-install Lion. Figuring maybe my data was corrupted during install. This helped for a day or two, and happened again. So this time, we backed up only files (music, pics, documents, etc.,) and did a fresh install. I got my computer back last night. Now, I am not saying that didn't help. Previously I would have frozen about 18 times well writing this, but I have not frozen once (hopefully I didn't just jinx myself). I have gone from about one freeze every 10-15 minutes (sometimes worse), to about one every 1-3 hours. Which, let's be honest is still a lot.
So, before I just decide to go and revert to Snow Leopard on my merry way, I ask, do any of you have any other ideas? Or guarenteed fixes? I know a guarentee is a hard thing to ask for, but I am desperate, my teachers are getting angry with me for not sending work, and I know this would help a lot of people. Thank you to those who read through my whole spiel, and thank you to those who will help me!
[Ps, while I am somewhat of a noob, I know my way around a computer, so any help, or knowledge you could bestow upon me is awesome. Especially DIY fixes. (if your only advice is, don't buy a mac at Best Buy, don't bother commenting)]
Macbook Pro
15-inch, 2.53GHz, Mid 2009
Processor: 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
Software: Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (11C74)

Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

Unable to load many web based games after installing lion

After installing Lion, I am unable to launch several online games (Pogo e.g.). What compatibility issues are being addressed?

I didn't think reinstalling was gonna do me any good except for getting rid of every single thing I have ever installed since getting this MBP. I'm thinking it has to be something that is on my computer causing this, especially since it only affects my ability to get to this one site and I only started seeing this problem yesterday.
So, I went ahead and disabled all my Chrome extensions and I don't have any Safari extensions at all. That didn't fix my issue.
I've been trying to run Sophos on here, thinking that maybe I've got a Trojan or some kind of malware, but it never seems to finish a full scan of my hard drive. That "Plugin" that I mentioned above has me very suspicious, except that whatever that is, it's been on my computer since basically when I first got it. Maybe it's malicious, or maybe it's just a poorly named piece of software. In any case, it got updated last night around 11pm, about the same time I noticed my problem. After trying everything I have, it's hard for me to overlook that as coincidence.
But, where do I go to gain more information about what that could be? I should mention that this MBP is basically my first Apple computer. I've been a PC guy (still am mostly) forever, but I finally dove in and got a Mac to start iOS development. So I'm sure there are ways to get more information than I am currently aware of.
Also, apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum.
