ILife Intall Issue

I am running a TiBook G4 667 768mb Ram Combodive, OS 10.4.5. I have tried to install iLife 06 and have run into a problem. During the install process, when I am get past the License Agreemnt page and transition into the Destination Selection page, my hard drive is Gray'ed out and the "searching" inidicator keep spinning. Basically the installer hangs as it is looking for eliegible destination drives. All other apps work okay, but obviously I cannot install iLife.
Before purchasing the software I noticed on the "System Requirements" that a 733mhz (or there abouts) processor is required for iDVD. I have no intention of using iDVD, so I went ahead and purchased the software. However, maybe my processor deficiency is making the iLife installer hang. Any suggestions?

opan... I had the same issue when I tried to load iLife06 onto my daughter's emac.
Here's my work around.
Boot your tbook in TARGET DISK MODE. you do this by connecting it to another mac (that has the right minimum system requirements for iLife06) with a firewire cable. Then once it's connected, reboot your tbook and hold down the "t" key. This will enable the other mac to see it as a hard disk. You should be able to install it on your tbook then.

Eclipse EE intall issue

I am trying to install Eclipse EE IDE on my Windows XP.
After I download and extract Eclpse and click on the install icon it shows a long pop up message:
jvm terminated. Exit code = -1
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion = 1.5
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
...I have jdk 1.5.0_06 and jre 1.5.0_06 loaded and even have Tomcat 5.5 working. And I was able to install the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers with no problem but cant install the IDE for Java EE Developers.
I deleted the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers hoping that was the problem but still cant get the Eclipse for Java EE to install.
Please advise.

This is not the correct place to ask this question.
The forum is for items concerning the Java language. It is not an Eclipse support forum.
The various IDE's have websites for support issues, and Eclipse questions should be asked at the Eclipse site.

Having a problem with ilife 08 and leopard screen saver

Hi,
Not sure if this is an osx leopard issue or a ilife 08 issue but before I did the upgrade I was able to use my entire iphoto library as random photos in the screensaver. Not it only let's me choose specific events or last import. it does not let me select the entire iphoto library?
Any ideas on this?

In System Preferences/Screen Saver, you need to go down the list past all the Events and you will see a listing titled "Photos" just above the item titled "Last 12 Months". Select it and you will see the entire iPhoto Library there.

I know many have this issue but i can't find a solution to the problem. i get message saying insuffisiant disk space in the volume iPhoto library and i have plenty of space available. i have the new macbook pro with retina display.

I know many have this issue but i can't find a solution to the problem. i get message saying insuffisiant disk space in the volume iPhoto library and i have plenty of space available. i have the new macbook pro with retina display. i have never seen this message before and i have 2 other macbooks and have had many other also. i am assuming this is a problem with the new macbook retina. does anyone know the exact fix to this issue? i have seen many sugestions to try to fix this issue but none have solved the issue for anyone that i can find in the Apple Support Community. thank for looking into this in advance.
******A true apple fan********

Actually your suggestions are the ones that i have tried. i have seen that you have tried to help others with this issue and the only one that i could find that said they found the problem said that it was an ilife update issue and it fixed it and i have no available updates. i know it has to do with something in photo stream because it happens when i create a new library and it is loading the photos but i get the message before i reach the maximum 1000 photos. so i've tried updating, new library(first backing up photos and then deleting them from iPhoto), reinstalling OSX many times, running disc utilities. I called Apple the first day i had this issue and i was the first person to call them for support with the retina display and i actually had it escalated to a senior advisor and we thought we fixed the problem but we did not. i am pretty fluent in dealing with troubleshooting these type of issues and this is the first time i'm reaching out to the community. i figured now that the retina has been out some time now that there would be an obvious answer to this issue. thanks for the quick reply.

D110 installation issues with Windows 8.1

Greetings,
Hoping someone may be able to help with an infuriating intall issue I am having. Whenever I attempt to run the new driver package for Windows 8.1, I am getting the following error;
"The system cannot find the file specified"
I have tried running the file as an administrator....no dice.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. :-)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I believe I fixed this. I turned off my antivirus program (I forget if it's Norton or McAfee, it came installed on this Dell laptop) - I assume that turning off the "auto-scan" feature was what mattered. After that, the D110 software installed without a hitch, and I was able to scan documents.
Hope this helps someone!

Do new macbooks come with iLife 06 or 08???

Now, from the conference today, it sounded like they said all new macs would come with iLife 08, but I go on to purchase the macbook, and see it still says 06.
Am I missing something, or am I wrong, and it does not include macbooks?
Message was edited by: Mig!

I just bought my first mac, a macbook pro, yesterday, at an apple store. The mac came with Tiger pre-installed and a drop-in disc of Leopard. Bundled with the Leopard disc were two other discs: OS disc 1 and 2. I had two install options with the Leopard: upgrade or clean. I chose clean because, well, it was a new computer so I figured there was nothing to save from the older OS. After install, I did not have any ilife features or the iwork trial. After lots of reading of postings on the discussion board, I finally figured out that these did not come w/Leopard as I had expected and that by choosing "clean", I erased the previous ilife versions.
I put in the extra OS disc 1, figured out that these were the Tiger OS discs, then chose bundled install package, selected only the ilife features(iweb, imovie, etc.) and the iwork '08 trial. I wasn't sure what I would get as far as the ilife features...if these would be ilife '08 or not. This install went fast. After install, I opened up the installed ilife applications and they were all ilife '08 versions. My mac was bought in Portland, OR, US.
I've seen all the posts that new macs would come with ilife '08 installed, and assumed that meant it would be there as part of the Leopard install. As a newbie to mac, I didn't really get what all this meant. I hope this clarifies for new mac users how to handle the Leopard/new mac/ilife '08 issue.

These apps cannot be accepted on this computer error

I am trying to update iPhoto and iMovie from versions 9.3 (iPhoto) and 9.0.5 (iMovie) to iPhoto 9.4.3 and iMovie 9.0.9. I keep on getting an error message that reads "These apps cannot be accepted on this computer. Future updates of these apps can be found through Software Update." Well, software update just launches the App store. I have done extensive searching on forums and tried to delete the apps and run the updater like suggested, but it still does not work. There is also no option to "Accept" the applications in the Mac App Store.
I am running the latest version of OSX (10.8.4) and have never had problens updating before. I have a mid 2009 15' MBP and have been the only owner. My laptop came with iLife '09 and, as the very rude guy from apple support pointed out, I have never purchased iLife 11.. but have somehow been allowed to update through software update and the Mac App store (have never pirated the software, as the Apple tech suggested). I guess my question to you is:
1. Why is it suddenly giving me problems when I try and update the software and 2. How am I supposed to buy the software if I am only given the option to "Update." I would also love to know how I've been able to keep updating for this long without having to pay for iLife '11.
Thanks for your help.
Corey

There are problems with some of what you describe. iLife '09 was not Mac App Store (MAS) software. iLife '11 originally was also not MAS software. iLife '11 is a major paid upgrade from iLife '09 and Software Update (SU) would not have upgraded your iLife '09 to iLife '11.
iLife '11 did not transition to the MAS until after the MAS was issued to the public as beta software for OS X 10.6.6 in JAN 2011. After that, Apple began phasing boxed software out of their stores as the supply ran out and iLife was issued as 3 individual apps for $14.99; iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand, sold only in the MAS. The MAS cannot update the original boxed version of iLife '11. Those apps can only be updated through SU.
So the part of your story that doesn't work is how you got from iLife '09 to iLife '11. You did not get there through SU. And if the MAS is reporting that those apps must be updated through SU, they would be the original, none-MAS versions that came preinstalled on new Macs or as boxed software. Could you have transfered these iLife '11 apps from another Mac? A Mac that is newer than your own and would have had the boxed set versions of iLife '11 preinstalled?

Aperture stopped syncing photos to iPad & ATV via iTunes

Out of the blue my iTunes has completely stopped syncing my Aperture photo library to both iPad and ATV devices. In iTunes the drop-down selection for iPhoto and Aperture is there but when I click sync nothing happens. My video, audio and apps all sync just fine. Any ideas? Seems to me this stopped with the last Aperture update.

This happened to me a few weeks ago... exactly as you described. I was able to fix it, but dang if I can remember what the final solution was.
I think I remember turning off sharing completely with each device, synced, then turning it back on and setting it up again. Had to go through the long initial sync to get a couple thousand images loaded back on the mobile devices. But, issue was solved.
Definitely get the latest 3.1.1 upgrade to Aperture 3. This dealt with some "sharing library with iLife apps" issues which very well could be related.
I apologize for not giving a direct answer... but have confidence this is not a showstopper and it can be fixed! I hate being over 50.

Hard drive issues related to a recent install of iLife 2005

SOS!
I have a G3 iBook (18G internal memory) that I use with a LaCie 250GB FireWire external drive.
Since I have so many Gigs of music, pics, etc. I've removed all my personal files off the startup disk and have them stored on the external drive leaving only operating system and applications on the start up disk.
So...I just purchased iLife so that I could use the upgraded iPhoto. In the process of trying to install iPhoto I was told I didn't have enough room on the start up disk to load the application. So, I went through my hard drive and deleted a few unnecessary applications (like games, NOT anything essential to run the OS) and moved every byte of personal files to the external drive. In the process I was able to remove only enough to make about 1.7G available left on the HD. The iPhoto upgrade did install successfully.
So, now I have the upgraded iPhoto but I've got two issues, the second one seems to be directly linked to this install.
1 - I can not figure out what is taking up so much room on my startup disk. I don't have any large applications except the Apple applications and MS Office X -- no other games, database software -- I even moved my copies Illustrator and Photoshop onto the external drive. I am concerned that having so little space left on my startup disk is going to cause problems through I can't figure out what else to delete. Is there a software I can run to uncover any hidden files?
2 - Since this install my MS Word will not open documents. It simply freezes up. All the other apps in the Office X suite work fine --- MS Word is the only app effected.
These are perplexing issues -- any help in diagnosing what is going on and/or what I should do next would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for listening!
Meredith

Hi,
The trash file is a good suggestion --- I did delete pictures from iPhoto but perhaps didn't purge them from the Trash so there is a "copy" still in the trash. I'll give that a try tonight and if correct will change this question to answered.
Otherwise, yes, I moved files/apps then trashed the main copy.
Thanks for your help!
Best, Meredith

ILife 08 and iMovie 06 compatibility issues?

Sorry if any of this has already been covered in other threads...
Has anyone had a chance to thoroughly test the 6.04 version of iMovie (download version if you install iLife 08) and know what compatibility issues there are?
I.E. How well does iPhoto 08 play with iMovie 06, or iMovie 06 with iDVD 08. Are the third party plugins problematic with v6.04?
From what I saw at the Apple store, iPhoto08 and iDVD08 would be the only apps that I would really want since iMovie08 seems to be a step backwards and iWeb is still lacking in everything that I wanted improved. But I don't want to waste the money to discover all sorts of "gotchas" with trying to get iMovie06 to play nice with the rest of iLife08...
Also, has anyone done an install excluding iMovie08 entirely? Do you still need to download 6.04 if installed this way? Are there any pitfalls?
This is like Deja vu or something...When iLife06 first came out, I installed everything but iMovie and stuck with iMovie05 for a long time cause of all the bugs and how long it took to get the third party plugins working...

Of all the things for people to moan about with iMovie '08, the real unfortunate thing is it's inability to import effects, etc. (essentially your completed movie) from iMovie HD. One could somewhat forgive Apple for this debacle, if only it played nice with iMovie HD. Then it could be everything it's supporters say it is, i.e. "a different app," "a simple app for simpletons in a hurry" (although I find it's lack of tools and compatibility issues more difficult to manage).
...and a lot of us feel like this is the thing we're going to be stuck with going forward.
I keep thinking that something else is going to happen, because this can't be right. I think this diver/video engineer who came up with this concept is suffering from the bends.
Apple doesn't need the money, (as in making us buy Final Cut Pro for decent video editing), trust me, so I don't understand why it would take the PR hit.
iMovie '08 spoofs are already on YouTube, etc.

ILife suite missing after hard drive issues

I recently had an issue with my hard drive which required it to be wiped, with a reinstallation from an external hard drive. I went to a Genius Bar and they explained that Time Machine had failed to backup my applications, and said that while they'd be able to recover my files and music, 3rd parties apps would not be recovered. This is fine, as I can deal with those seperately. What I wasn't expecting was my iLife applications to be missing. I have trawled the support communites where they have advised to redownload the apps from the App Store, but they do not appear there. I managed to find an old iLife '08 disc and installed this in the hope that it would be fixed by Software Update, but when I open iPhoto now it says "You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto". Can anyone help me?

"You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of
iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto".
Move your iPhoto Library out of your Pictures folder to a regular external drive and delete the origianl.
Start iPhoto and it will create a new iPhoto Library in Pictures.
Upgrade iPhoto and quit, replace the empty iPhoto Library with the one from the external drive.
Start iPhoto.
If you have issues, you can hold option key down while starting iPhoto to select other iPhoto Libraries, also you can right click on the iPhoto Library and "show package contents" inside is a folder called originals or masters with your original files you can copy out and reimport into the new iPhoto Library.

HT5204 I have a purchased copy of ilife that won't install because of a certificate expiration issue. I just replaced my hard drive in my mac and I am trying to get my stuff back up and running.

How can I reinstall my ilife 11 software?

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.
