ILife not found on OS X 10.5

I just recently purchased a used MacBook. Hard drive was wiped clean and OS X 10.5 installed. Could not find (iMovie, iPhoto, iDVD, etc) anywhere in applications folder or anywhere in the hard drive. I thought this was standard with OSX. Can anyone help?

iLife is installed on new Macs.
If you buy an upgrade of the OS - for example Tiger to Leopard Upgrade disks or a full version of Leopard, then iLife is not included.
Looks like your MacBook originally came with Tiger and the person who sold it to you did a _clean install_ Upgrade to Leopard, then iLife (and a few other things) will disappear.
Ask the person who sold you the MacBook to give you the original system disks that shipped with the MacBook. You can reinstall the "Optional Installs" from the original disks.
Hope that helps. (jk)

  • Can't update IPhoto because application not found?

    I have had the latest iPhoto until yesterday when I did something dumb? then I couldn't open iPhoto anymore. I did create a new library, but discovered that the version of iPhoto I can now open is only a 2. Whenever I try to update to iPhoto 5 or 6, the screen says "you cannot install iPhoto update on this volume. An eligible iPhoto application was not found in the location / Applications/iPhoto.app" when I try to install it onto the hard drive. I'm an amateur at this and would surely appreciate some help. I don't want to be stuck with a version 2! I would also like to be able to import all my pictures back.

    Hi lori,
    From the beginning: We just bought this intel two months ago. I believe it came equipped with the latest iLife and therefore the latest iPhoto. The technician at the store booted up everything from our old broken iBook, which had older versions of everything (though I don't think the iPhoto was THAT early of a version.)
    Recently, I set up a new user and I tried to copy (drag over) my old photo library from my iBook backup file, because this new user didn't have any pix on its iPhoto. When I tried to do that, I believe the computer asked me some questions, like I'm agreeing to certain terms of iPhoto. I thought this was required process under a new user. I really didn't pay attention to it and just clicked 'agree'. Then I couldn't open iPhoto anymore because it said I had done some changes to iPhoto and needed to reopen with a later version. I read some of your other posts and tried to create a new library, which I succeeded in doing. But now it's version 2. Really strange and frustrating.
    I'm assuming that the latest iLife is on my computer already? We don't think our computer came with the CD/DVDs.
    I SURE appreciate your help thus far! It's all new to me.

  • I need to install I DVD but it says that:An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications., I need to install I DVD but it says that:An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications.

    PLease, I am trying to install I DVD but it says that an eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications.
    Somebody can help me?

    It sounds as if you're trying to install an update rather than the actual application itself. iDVD is no longer included with new Macs and you'll need to use your original Applications disc to install it (or, if you never had it at all, but iLife '11 from Amazon to get iDVD).
    Good luck,

  • "You cannot install iWeb Update on this volume. A qualifying copy of iWeb was not found in /Applications" How do I fix this?

    "You cannot install iWeb Update on this volume. A qualifying copy of iWeb was not found in /Applications." How do I fix this?

    Version 2.0.4 is iWeb 08 and direct publishing via ftp is not available in iWeb 08 and never has been.  You have the option of publishing to MobileMe, but you can publish via ftp, but you need to select the option publish to a local folder instead and then upload using Cyberduck, which is a free and dedicated ftp client. 
    If you want the inbuilt ftp function, then you will need to upgrade your iLife package to either iLife 09 which contains iWeb 09 or iLife 11, which also contains iWeb 09.  For this, you need to purchase both of these packages.  Either go to Amazon and try and get a copy of iLife 09 more cheaply or purchase iLife 11 directly from the Apple store.
    This is what you will need to do and iWeb 08, which is the version you have, never has had built in ftp so that option will never be available to you unless you upgrade which you will have to pay for.  Upgraded and updates are different things.  Updates are just your normal run of the mill software updates and address bug fixes etc., whereas you will need to pay for full upgrades to other packages such as from iLife 08 to iLife 09 or 11.

  • Hi i haven't updated my iDVD seen 2005 and to get the new one i need 7.0.4 first and i downloaded it from the apple website and when i go into the updating process its says "An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications." why"

    Because you need to buy iLife 08 or newer on DVD first. If you're using iDVD 05, you probably have a PowerPC Mac and can't use iLife 11.

    I think we are looking at re-installing your iDVD application. But let's do a few of the basics first.
    Have you Repaired Permissions on the boot volume? (if not, do so now)
    Drag and drop the plist for iDvd to the trash ..... looks like this:

    RESTART your mac.
    Now try iDvd. Hopefully this helped.

  • Audio file "086_Grand_Piano2_ped_f.aif" not found!

    Garageband keeps telling me that most of my instruments can't be found. The message "Audio file “086Grand_Piano2_pedf.aif” not found!" comes up on 50% of my instruments but with different .aif files. The files are the ones telling Garageband what sound it should give the MIDI signal coming from the keyboard.
    I have a Yamaha USB keyboard attached to my 13" MBP running OSX 10.6.5 and iLife '09. I have no idea where the files have gone since i havent been using GB for a few months until yesterday when the problem started occurring.
    Message was edited by: Fredde88

    This looks like your Instrument Library is not okay. It sits in HD/Library/Application Support/Garageband. What do you see there?
    Maybe it makes sense to re-install GB completely.

  • Domain not found........!

    After a unexpected resatrt, my i web no longer opens. I get a message saying 'Domain not found'
    I reloaded my applications bundle, still the same problem. I tried to load the domain file directly from the library, also the same problem.............
    Please shed some light for me, I'm sure its a simple fix...........

    No, actually I never went to iWeb '08. I just reinstalled iLife '06 after cleaning out my HD. Earlier I'd removed iMovie, iPhoto, iDVD, etc. to save space but after I dumped all my non-English language packages ( using the Tinker Tool System ) and two old Previous Systems folders I recovered a huge amount of HD space and felt I could reinstall them. I wasn't sure how I could just reinstall the programs that I had removed from Applications so I reinstalled iLife '06.
    I tried a Spotlight search and got Apple discussions and iWeb. When I open iWeb I get a clean slate with no sites in the site organizer. But, as I've said, I have several slideshows on webpages that I have a url link to so there must be a domain out there somewhere. If I created a new webpage using iWeb what would happen to the old domain?

  • "Audio Record Path Not Found" error and new details

    I've been having problems opening up older GarageBand files I've created and trying to add new content. When I try to record on an existing track, or in a new track, I get the error: "Audio Record Path not Found! Please enter it in the following dialog." (and there's no following dialog). I've tried to save the file as an archive, which has worked in the past, but doesn't work any longer. I'm using a MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 15"
    As a test, I installed iLife 06 on my older (PowerPC-based) Mac Mini. On that computer, I'm able to open the files, and record onto an existing track. None of my recording equipment is attached to this machine, however. If I save an archive and move it to my macBook Pro, I'm still not able to add recordings to it.
    I tried reintalling GarageBand on my MBP, but I still get the same error. I've also deleted the preference files from Library > Preferences. (the two com.apple.garageband... files), and still no luck. It doesn't sound like the audio files themsleves are corrupted since I can open them on the Mini, so it's likely GarageBand. What else can I delete to make it a pristine installation?
    I don't want to use my Mac Mini for recording, as it's too slow for my editing needs, but if I can't open the files on my MacBook Pro, I'll have to re-record them.
    Anyone have any ideas I can try?

    Excellent suggestion! I actually left the files on the external USB drive on which I store them, and accessed them from my MacBook Pro (instead of moving the files to the MacBook Pro), and sure enough, I'm able to edit and add to the files!
    I still don't know why I can't access them locally on the MBP, but this workaround is certainly acceptible for my needs!
    Thanks out to everyone who helped on this thread!

  • Error " Untitled Preview.mov not found"

    " I updated Garageband 2 to GarageBand 3 from the iLife CD. I get an error "Untitled Preview.mov not found" when I attempt to open the movie tab in the media browser. Does anyone have a suggestion to solve this?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Look in your Movies folder, it sound slike you might have a bad file, or perhaps an bad alias in there. A simpe thing to try would be to movie all files out of your Movies folder and see if the problem is solved or not.

  • Audio file "Guitar2_GTRs2_MiXv3.caf" not found.

    I am trying to play my second basic guitar lesson in Garageband, but this message: Audio file “Guitar2GTRs2MiXv3.caf” not found. keeps popping up. Anyone have any suggestions or solutions?

    Hi,
    same here. It worked right after I installed ilife'09. I watched the second guitar lesson and it was fine. Then I decided to update and after that I was able to download the second lesson again (two lesson 2 icons appeared). After the download there was again only one icon, but then the error with the missing file occured.
    Very annoying, I bought Ilife'09 just for the guitar lessons and now I cannot proceed with the second lesson!

  • Item cost not found for one or more items - Inventory Posting

    Good Day Mentors,
    My user has encountered an error during Inventory Posting and its "Item cost not found for one or more items".
    The specific Message ID from SAP's System Message Log is 10001287.
    I found a similar post which addresses this error here.
    But unfortunately it did not help me solve my user's problem.
    I already checked if the items had a defined "Item Cost" in the Item Master Data Inventory Tab, and they all have "Item Cost" defined.
    I'm not sure if this will help, but below is the Inventory Audit Report of one of the items that is throwing the "Item cost not found" error.
    I am not a business consultant neither am I literate in accounting, so thanks for the patience.

    Hi Augusto and Raviraj,
    I've already verified in our production database the points you made:
    - Is the "Manage Item cost per warehouse" selected in the Basic Initialization Screen?
    YES
    - Is the "Manage Inventory by Warehouse" ticked/checked in the "Inventory Data" tab of the "Item Master Data" screen?
    YES
    * I apologize for not have been able to give this information upfront.
    Anyway, the database only has one warehouse at the moment.
    I've checked the items, like the item in the screen shot above, and it does have an item cost.
    Below is the screenshot of the sample item from my original post,
    Thanks in advance!

    Can you start QuickTime on your computer?
    You'll probably have to search for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and use it to remove QuickTime Player and iTunes. Then download and install the iTunes again.

  • I was updating Firefox from version 6 to version 7, after updating I tried to open Firefox and the message I got is this: This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found. How can I fix this?

    I was updating Firefox to the newest version 7.0.1 from version 6.0.2 I think it was, I clicked the restart Firefox button that always comes up after updating. It started updating and then Firefox never restarted like it was supposed to after it was done updating. I then tried to open Firefox and it told me "This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found." I did have Firefox crash on maybe about 30 minutes or so earlier which bothered me because I have been using Firefox for years and never had it crash on me before but I didn't think much of it at the time it happened because I was able to go back onto Firefox and finish what I had been working on. A while later I checked for updates and updated. The first time I tried to update it didn't work though so I had to shutdown Firefox and reopen Firefox and start the update a second time. It was after the second time that when I tried to open Firefox I got that message about failing to start because xul.dll can't be found. I filed a crash report when my Firefox crashed. This would have been around 1am-2am in the morning that Firefox first crashed and then wouldn't allow me to open it after updating. I have a DELL laptop running the Windows XP operating system but the laptop is probably at least 6 or 7 years old. The laptop will no longer charge so I always have to have it plugged into an outlet. Both my laptop hard drive and my external hard drive give me messages that I am running out of disk space on my hard drive. I bought this laptop 6 or 7 years ago second hand so it could be even older. In short it's a piece of crap and it gives me all kinds of issues but I currently can't afford a new one, but I have never had any problems with Firefox and I use Firefox more than any other aspect of my laptop so it's really really bothering me. May you please help me fix it?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • JBO:33001 bc4j.xcfg file not found in class path

    Hi,
    I am yet another victim of the age-old error JBO:33001 bc4j.xcfg file not found in class path, When i have my BC4JApp.jar in Tomcat Web-inf/lib directory. All the other jar files and class files in my webserver-application web-inf classes and lib directory works.
    But Tomcat server is not able to read this bc4j.xcfg file. I can see in my jar file that this bc4j.xcfg exists and in the specified package directory. still the problem persists. My BC4JApp.jar is perfectly working when i use JDeveloper. but not when i use tomcat4.0 and call a JSP using BC4JApp.jar from browser (My environment is Jdeveloper3.2, Tomcat4.0+IIS in middle tier and oracle 8i as DB, everything on windows2k)
    I have gone through almost all the threads possible that relates to this error in this form. None of them have a answer except to say "put the file in classpath". and last reply is "will fix in jDeveloper 9i. So what happens to us who are working in Jdeveloper 3.2?
    1. I have this file in my jar file.
    2. I also tried creating a seperate directory manually, with the same name as my package under web-inf/classes, web-inf/lib , just under web-inf directory and atlast under approot directory also. I tried having my package directory containing bc4j.xcfg in these folders one at a time and also tried having this directory in all these folders at the same time.
    Still no solution.
    Itz frustrating that neither proper documentation nor a right url page nor i am aware of available addressing this. page links given in above threads only gives me the wonderful page of ie's "Page cannot be displayed".
    Is there a answer to this error and my problem. If this doesn't work, then i have to all the way develop from scratch creating my jsp using JDBC calls and Stored packages etc.
    I don't want to give up on this Jdeveloper at this final moment because if this bc4j.xcfg file is found, my application will work perfectly. on these final moments, if this doesn't work, i am frightened to imagine to develop my application in standard way. Atlast, if thatz the option left,we have to do that bcos our production date is close by.
    Please can some one in this forum or Jdeveloper help me to solve this problem. I am desperate and very urgent.
    Waiting for a reply from Jdev team very much...
    ( I just posted in the other thread which is pretty old, dated backto May 2001, which was relevant to this error. Just to make sure it is noticed, I am posting it seperately too)
    Thanks
    Hari(2/3/02)

    Hi All,
    For those who are following this thread, I got a solution for this error with the help of Jdev Team.
    This solution may work, if you have deployed your application in Tomcat4.0.1. This is the environment in which I work and tested.
    As you may be aware, Tomcat ignores value in CLASSPATH variable.
    To see any files that are existing or newly deployed, it has it own way of detecting it.
    Addition information on Tomcat working, you can follow this link,
    http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/index.html
    Coming to point, Tomcat has got five classloaders and each classloader invoked, looks in their related directories for files in following order.
    1. /WEB-INF/classes of your web-application
    2. /WEB-INF/lib/*.jar of your web application
    3. BootStrap classes of your JVM (Tomcat's $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext)
    4. System class loader classes($CATALINA_HOME/bin/bootstrap.jar,CATALINA_HOME/lib/tools.jar)
    5. $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes
    6. $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/*.jar
    7. $CATALINA_HOME//classes
    8. $CATALINA_HOME/lib/*.jar
    So All your individual application related files should be deployed in your application's WEB-INF/classes or WEB-INF/lib directory accordingly.
    If your application files are unpacked, they should be deployed or copied under WEB-INF/classes directory
    if the files are within a jar, they should be under WEB-INF/lib directory.
    If your Jar-files contains bc4j components, then those jar files should be deployed under WEB-INF/lib directory. Also,do the next step to copy all relavant BC4J runtime libraries under lib directory.
    IMPORTANT: Please remember to copy and paste all the required BC4j runtime libraries in the Same WEB-INF/lib directory along with your application jar files. This is the real reason which can solve this JBO:33001 to disappear. It worked for me.
    To configure your directory for tag-lib uri's, use web.xml to set the taglib-uri attribute.
    Put your web.xml and DataTags.tld in the WEB-INF directory.
    Your simple web.xml may look like as follows.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
    <web-app>
         <taglib>
              <taglib-uri>
                   /webapp/DataTags.tld
              </taglib-uri>
              <taglib-location>
                   /WEB-INF/DataTags.tld
              </taglib-location>
         </taglib>
    </web-app>
    You may then modify this web.xml to suit further requirements of your application.
    Remember to stop and restart the Tomcat Server (service) by using shutdown and startup scripts after updating any jar files/class files/ JSP or source files deployed in Tomcat.
    Sometimes, only this helps even though your context's reloadable attribute is set to true in Tomcat Server's server.xml file.
    Hope this above information helps you to solve this error in Tomcat environment. My Sincere thanks once again to Juan and Jdev team for their help and efforts to solve this problem.
    Thanks
    Hari
