Imovie for mac mini OS Lion 10.7.5

I have a mac mini running Lion 10.7.5 I need imovie, I bought this machine 2nd hand. Tried to upgrade to maverick it won't work. The version of imovies on apple does not work with Lion. This is why I tried to upgrade to maverick. Where can I get an earlier version of imovie or ilife that will work on my machine?

Only by purchasing a earlier version of iLife from Amazon or eBay. iMovie by itself is not available as a download.
Note that versions earlier than iMovie 6 will not work with Lion.

Best webcam for Mac Mini with lion os

WHat is the best webcam to use on most recent mac mini (lion OS)?

I purchased a Logitech HD C910 and it works really well. The non-included software for Mac you have to download is crap, but you don't need it for Skype, iChat, PhotoBooth, Google+ hangouts, etc.

I am trying to get Zen-Cart on my mac mini server lion 10.6

I am trying to get Zen-Cart on my mac mini server lion 10.6 and am stuck getting mysql installed.
Bassiclly what I am trying to do is have a cart for my site I host locally I used iWeb to creat the site and it has no cart plug in I am aware of which makes it useless for ecommerce. Other than that it is nice to use maybe im missing somethin? So I am looking for solutions to get Zen Cart installed (easilly) to include mysql since OSX does not have it. Some questions
Is there a good free packaged installer for mysql and or zencart?

Can iWeb be updated by me to host an e cart, or is there a plug in I can get?
Other?

How do I set up my Time Machine and Mac Mini with Lion Server so i have one wifi loop in the house?

HELP!
So I have had a Time Machine wifi loop at the house for approx. 6 years. I run two Macbooks, 2 iPhones, 2 iTouch and a Samsung Smart Blueray on the loop.
I just bought a Mac Mini with Lion Server. When setting it up I'm not sure what or how I managed to do, but I now have 2 wifi loops, one doesn't lock and niether will support the Samsung BlueRay. Also, each time I want to go online with one of the other Mac devices i have to relog into the wifi loop.
Can someone please walk me through the fix. The mac Mini is plugged straight into the Time Machine to recevie its internet connection.
Thanks!

You often see this limit of 10 clients in wireless hotspots but I have yet to see it in an adsl modem.. most strange way to pay for a service that is really irrelevant how many clients you use.
Have a go .. I recently setup a TC to help a guy run his Roku.. and this setup worked well.. I have no idea if it can work in your case.
Lets say the IP you get is 192.168.2.1-10 .. doesn't matter what it really is. And the adsl modem is 192.168.2.254
(Assuming they are private addresses.. if they are public IP you can just use the DHCP and NAT. )
But go to the airport utility.. I think you need to run v5 at least to change DNS.. but you can do the same thing in v6 using static but no dns changes.
Now you set the IP of the TC manually.. This address might need to be in the dhcp range of the modem to work. You can set the DNS to same IP as the router address.. ie home address of the modem. Or you can use another DNS.. whatever you like.
Then set DHCP for clients that will join.. this can then expand the scope of addresses..
It worked without a NAT error.. although I am not sure exactly how.. on paper it should not be able to work but did.. have a go.. otherwise there is perhaps another way.. but it is complicated.
Give us an example from a computer plugged into the modem of what IP .. subnet mask .. Gateway and DNS you get. Then I can fine tune the values for it.

Hi I installed a new hard drive in my Mac mini osx lion an when I turn it on I get a flashing file with a question mark. I tried holding command and R keys when turning it on but the recovery fails to work. Does any one know how I can get it to recover?

Hi I installed a new hard drive in my Mac mini osx lion an when I turn it on I get a flashing file with a question mark. I tried holding command and R keys when turning it on but the recovery fails to work. I can hold the option key at start up and choose my network, then Internet recovery shows up with an arrow pointing up. When I click on the arrow Internet recovery fails and all I get is a globe with a triangle on it with an exclamation mark on it, and under that it says
apple.com/support
-6002F
Does any one know how I can fix this without a recovery disc? Thanks

I just want to add to this, in case someone else searches for this error on Apple Support (google doesnt cover apple support.. how clever is that?)
I had the same error. And i had a Computer that had worked, with a SSD drive and 16GB upgrade done by the owner himself.
I tried swapping with a Mechinal Harddrive, no luck.
Kept the Mechanical drive in, and tried with some other Ram, it worked..
So for me this error and after reading the other responses can be boiled down to a Harddrive problem or Ram issue.
It was Ram for me..

Is it possible to find a version of pages to install on 2007 mac mini running lion?

Can't install the latest system on my mac mini, it's too old.
Want to install pages to work with files a friend is sending me.
The app store only shows the current version of pages which requires the current system.
Is it possible to find an old version of pages to install to run on 10.7.5 ?
or better yet on 10.6.8? (on which I'm stuck because quicken stuck there)
Thank you.

I cannot answer your Pages question, but...
What type of file is your friend sending you?
FYI: Quicken 2007 for Macs (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks) is available for only $15 download directly from Intuit:
http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/quicken-2007-osx-lion.jsp
Also, if/when you upgrade, be sure to partition your hard drive or add an external drive and install Lion, Mt. Lion or Mavericks there!
Keep your Snow Leopard partition and DO NOT install upgrade over it, as the upgrade will destroy the Snow Leopard environment.

Hi Guys,

Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

If I bought my Mac mini with Lion already loaded, is it necessary to upgrade to OS X to Mountain Lion?

if I bought my Mac mini with Lion already loaded, is it necessary to upgrade to OS X to Mountain Lion?

For you maybe, but Mavericks is better than Mounatin Lion for me, not to mention that is free.
I still maintain a Snow Leopard partition for some older software, but see no need to keep a partition for either Lion or Mountain Lion.
IMHO, yours may vary.
P.S., I think most will agree that Mounatin Lion was superior to Lion.

Mac mini with lion OS skipping keystrokes (in razer anansi)

hello,
I recently purchased a mac mini 2011 model running lion OS with razer anansi mac layout keyboard.
Im having a really bad time as the keystrokes keeps skipping very randomly (some keys more frequent). if i slow down & press the missed out key it works fine but as I type along I noticed it keeps happening. Has anyone ever encountered something like that ?
I also want to know how do I set the options for key repeating for example if I press key "X" long enough it will repeat itself by default (in windows & in snow leopard as well) but in Lion it pops up a bubble with alternative options for the key (similar to iphone keyboard ) which i want to get rid of. this has become very annoying with the delete key as well. press & hold delete wont delete the characters auto & it only delete 1 character
configuration : mac mini / 8gb / lion os / razer anansi k:b
thanks & regards,

HP Printer update keeps getting reinstalled. Mac mini with Lion.

I have a new Mac mini with Lion and the HP Deskjet all-in-one printer with scanner that came with a rebate so I got it for free. When I check for new software I get a notice that there is an update to the HP printer driver (I think it is v 5.7). I go ahead and do the update and it says it was installed. When I check later on for new software the same update shows up, as if I never did the upgrade. What gives?

Thanks for the feedback. Since I did the original post I found the solution by searching the community for "HP Update". Someone posted that you need to delete a folder within the Library folder and then do the update again. The deleted folder for the HP Printer will wind up in the trash, but you need to reboot the Mac before you can empty the trash.

Is there a way to view the timecode in iMovie for Mac?

Is there a way to view the timecode in iMovie for Mac? This is such a basic feature needed for editing; I can't believe it wouldn't be available. Am I missing something?

Do the math means you know the timecode at the beginning of each clip and when you mouse over a transition or clip you know the clip length. If you trim the clip you see how much you are trimming. With these numbers you can caulate the cursor position or find the timecode value at any frame in the clip. I am not saying it is an elegant process by any means, but if you really need to, this will work. Obviously it is a grievius situation Apple has left us in regarding timecode.

IMovie for Mac: "iMovie cannot open files in the "iMovie for iOS Project" format."

Question, asked professionally
When will iMovie for Mac be able to open iMovie for iOS projects?
Question, asked snarkily
Any reasonable expectation that we will ever be able to edit projects--created in iMovie on our fancy new expensive phones--in iMovie on our fancy new expensive laptops?
Specs
iPhone 6 Plus (contract-free, 128 GB)
iOS 8.1.2
iMovie for IOS 2.1.1
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid-2014)
OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
iMovie for Mac 10.0.6
Error Messages
iMovie for Mac: "iMovie cannot open files in the "iMovie for iOS Project" format."
iMovie for iOS: "An error occurred during export."
Frustration
Manufacturer: Apple (a multibillion dollar company)
The year: 2015
Hours lost: Three Weeks
Total costs for both devices: $4,000
Background Details
I just wasted thousands of dollars on these two hardware devices by making the rookie mistake of assuming projects were compatible across iMovie applications. However, the exported .iMovieMobile project files are in an incompatible iMovie for iOS Project format that iMovie for Mac cannot import. So I am stuck with a 15 GB .iMovieMobile project file--for an hour-long+ video--that I created and I was editing on my iPhone for weeks that I can no longer edit on my iPhone due to an error, nor potentially rescue the lost hours on my Mac, the sole reason I purchased it one day ago. The reason I can no longer edit the project on the iPhone is because iMovie for iOS suddenly stopped displaying the video of the project in preview, external display, etc. The clip snapshots remain visible and the audio remains audible, but the video appears fully black. Any attempt to export the video at any resolution generates an error message. (This error applies only to this project; other projects export without issue.) I can save to and from iTunes or iCloud without issue, but import into iMovie for Mac is unavailable for this latest version. Deleting and reinstalling the app does not resolve the issue. Nothing has resolved this issue; so I purchased the Mac as a last attempt, and it appears that I will have to begin the meticulously painful process of recreating the video from scratch with all the titling, sound effects, precise edits, transitions, organization, etc. This video was to surprise my mother for her birthday with "this is your life" footage, including my late father. It may seem like a small first-world problem, but such things carry big emotional impacts. What began as such a wonderfully intuitive and joyful experience has descended into a soul-suffering nightmare of catastrophic proportions. This software grinch stole christmas.
Likely Suspect
I believe this originated from Apple's confusingly designed iTunes client that removed videos used by iMovie for IOS during a sync, which I successfully restored back to the iPhone. This apparently resulted in iOS seeking and then claiming to find all of the videos, but somehow a bug in the coding causes the audio to play but not display video, and no way to resolve the bug from an enduser standpoint. I was hoping that iMovie for Mac would allow me a workaround, but I'll never know because the iOS and Mac formats are currently and dishearteningly incompatible.
Suggestions
I never performed a full backup of the iPhone, but I don't believe any of the iCloud nor local backups actually backup iMovie projects themselves anyway. (That's a fail.) So one must back them up manually to iTunes or iCloud.
MANUALLY BACKUP YOUR PROJECTS DAILY, IF NOT HOURLY.
MANUALLY BACKUP YOUR PROJECTS BEFORE IMPORTING OR SYNCING FROM ITUNES.
MANUALLY BACKUP YOUR PROJECTS BEFORE IMPORTING VIDEO CREATED OUTSIDE OF YOUR IOS DEVICE.
Resolutions
Hope Apple fixes this problem soon? Perhaps.
Return the Mac to Apple, if they allow? Perhaps.
Someone in this community will provide a magical workaround--that I haven't already attempted? Perhaps.
As unlikely these options may be, I shudder to imagine that I may be forced to suffer no resolution and $3,000+ completely down the drain, because if iMovie for IOS worked as intended, I wouldn't have ever purchased the Mac as a last ditch effort to rescue the project. It meant that much to me to surprise my mother by attempting to retrieve this project file from oblivion--but to no avail.

I appreciate you taking the time to copy and paste boilerplate responses to increase your points in this forum, but I've already read all those support articles in depth; but you have barely read my post at all. Please don't guess a fix. Only someone with the latest versions of iMovie, iOS, iPhone, Yosemite, and MacBook Pro is qualified to troubleshoot this, because anyone would immediately see that the following option no longer exists:
Open iMovie on your Mac, and choose File > Import > iMovie for iOS Project.
Read my post before you reply: It clearly says in the title and within my post that I can neither export nor import through iTunes without receiving an error message. So your response neither solved my question nor helped me whatsoever.

I just got a new Mac Mini with Lion - the Window tab at the top of the Safari Browser used to ahve a downloads folder in it along with Activity etc - but it is not there anymore. Any way to get it back or is there another location it sits in? I used it when I'd copy video info from the activity folder and then paste into the download folder and presto - I downloaded the video onto my computer. I really miss this capability!

Download activity is found by clicking on the gadget on the right:

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.
