Install program from my imac to an older powerbook g4 I just bought?

Hello, new here, learning about my mac. I have an imac I bought about 2 years ago. Love it. I just bought a used powerbook g4. Is there any way to install the garageband that came with my new imac on to this older powerbook? thanks!

Hello Jzap, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Unfortunately no, It's likely a Gray Intel Machine specific Disk.
And GarageBand for the PB will be hard to find, but look on eBay & such, iirc GB should be on iLife05 Discs or later.

HT4356 Printing through a network on an iPad how do I download from hp , I have an older hp printer and just bought a Cisco n900 router I want to have my iPad print to the router USB

I am trying to print from my iPad through a network using a Cisco n900 router, any Ideas on how to do this I have hp printers older version c4480

FrankieG-
You have three potential problems. First, your printer is not on Apple's list of AirPrint printers <iOS: AirPrint 101>. Second, AirPrint does not work through a USB connection. An AirPrint printer must be connected to the network either by WiFi or by Ethernet. Third, some WiFi routers do not correctly handle Bonjour data required by AirPrint.
To make your setup work, you can use an iPad printing App such as PrintCentral or Print n Share. Either may work for you if their built-in text, browser, mail and photo programs meet your needs. However, they can only be accessed from within other Apps that have the "Open In" option. You might also try the free HP App, ePrint Home & Biz.
Another approach is to run a program on your computer, that shares its printer as AirPrint over WiFi. Printopia and FingerPrint can do that, and are reported to work well. Your computer must be on and awake any time you want to print. <Printopia for Macintosh> <FingerPrint for PC and Mac>

My husband(less technologically inclined than I am), decided to delete programs from our iMac, now it has a grey screen and won't get past it. If I insert the Application Install DVD, to repair the disk, will I loose all my pictures and music?

With a corrupt disk, the install procedure is most likely going to fail.
How old it the disk?
You might be able to reformat it to fix the problem. Of course that means you lose all of your data.
The other alternative is to get a new disk drive and put that in your Mac and install OS X
Then put the old disk drive in an enclosure and see what can be recovered from it.

Can I un-install Yosemite from my iMac and re-install Mountain Lion?

Sorry to barge in like this but is it because you found it to have it's own way of doing stuff without your control? As i was thinking of doing the same thing because i found Mountain Lion much more user friendly.I know you came for an answer just was searching and came accross your question.
Hope you find the answer. good luck.

Do they appear in your Purchased history on your iPad? Can you now redownload thme form there? There should be no cost to do so again.
Can you explain in more detail what happened?

Normally an Elements purchase is good for both platforms. You should only need to download and install the Mac versions of the programs and install and activate them using the serial number you have from the opriginal purchase.

My old IMAC is a few years old. Just bought a new one OX 10.8.2. The old one is OS X 10.5.8. Can I install Lion or ewuivalent and then synch both on ICLOUD. Or is there another way to synch the two computers.

You can use Migration Assistant in Applications > Utilities to get all your files from one iMac to the other. If you want to upgrade your older model to MtLion you need to have at least a mid 2007 Intel Core 2 Duo with a bare minimum of 2GB of RAM. Then you need to buy the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 DVD , update with
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
at which point you can access the App Store to purchase and install MtLion 10.8 where you would then have access to the iCloud.

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements on an older Mac...just bought Mac Mini and migrated all my files...but 4.0 Does not work....can I upgrade PSE 4.0 to PSE 13?

Yes, any version of PSE qualifies for upgrade pricing, but if you're in the US you might want to consider running the trial for now and waiting for the black friday specials, when the full version will be a lot less than the adobe upgrade price.

How Do I Uninstall a Program from A iMac G5?

I have just moved over to my first apple computer an iMac G5, and i installed a trial version of Sophos Anti Virus software which does not work well, and so I wish to remove it.
The thing is I dont know how you uninstall programs from the Mac system. I am running OS X 10.4.3
Also, can someone plese tell me what Antivirus program is reliable to install.
I have managed to turn on the built in Firewall that is in 'System Preferences' so I guess i don't need to buy another software version as well?
Hope you can advise.
Thanks

PS, I have been extreamly impressed how easy it has been to install my printer, graphics tablet and PDA on a Mac system, as this has been very problematic when I used Windows XP Pro.
I think I am now a convert for life!

Hi Drusus
I have never run anything unessential on my mac's for the past four years
(after crossing over from Generic PC to Mac after being hacked in front of my eyes on the windows ME platform. I saw my desktop gradually deleted and the computer left with only the desktop, no icons, and no where to go ! re-started and there was no system left !)
since changing over to Mac like anti virus and such, I just use built in firewall.
Probably have to get a little more cautious as times change though.
Uninstall is just grab the application and throw it in the bin generaly. Just throw away the main folder if there is one of the application you want to un-install there may be some pref files left over but generaly these do not cause a problem.
Probably run disk utility after emptying your trash and press repair disk permissions and that should do it.
But I am no expert at all it is just what works for me.

Optical drive won't install programs from CDs

I have a S300-EZ2501. I downgraded my installation from Vista Business to XP Pro.
My drive has stopped installing programs that come on CDs. I did not have this problem while loading all my software onto the laptop. Now, however, when I insert an installation CD into the drive, it attempts to read the CD, but cannot initialize the Autorun file, so nothing happens. I've tried running the install from the Run line, or by browsing to the file, but that does not work either. I also tried deleting the device from my system and reinstalling; that didn't work either.
Are there any registry settings for the optical drive that I can check? I want to make sure that the system is pointing to the correct location.
Thank you.

I tried to restore to earlier settings, but that did not help.
If I try to doubleclick on the executable file on the CD, the hard drive light goes on, but not the external drive light.
I'm starting to think this is a WindowsXP problem and not a drive problem. I copied the contents of one of the program CDs to my hard drive, and tried installing from that directory. When I double-click on the Setup.exe file, there is sporadic hard drive flashing light, but nothing happens. The programs install from .exe files and not .msi files, so its not a Windows Installer problem. What other settings can I check that affect running setup programs on the laptop?
As I'm typing this, all of a sudden the executable program screen appeared on the laptop (after about 10 minutes). Maybe it will install, but that's a very long time before it happens.
Nothing more happened (10 more minutes). When I closed the screens fromy my toolbar, I received a popup telling me that I am ending the "nonresponsive program 32-bit Setup Launcher." I think there is a problem with this file; when I tried to install other programs (16-bit, from earlier versions) and had to close them down, I received messages that the 16-bit system was unstable.
Is there a way to repair these files on my laptop? What might have destabilized them?
As a reminder back to the beginning of this thread, my laptop came with Vista Business installed, but I downgraded from the restore CD to WinXP Pro.

Install program from pc-to nokia n9??

hey, when you download a program / game for the Nokia N9 to the data and will then install / add it into the phone, in which folder should you put it? for when you connect the mobile to data will only pictures, movies, media and text folders until nothing else! can someone please help me I do not understand anything!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You talking about apps that aren't from Nokia Store?
If you talk about installing apps From Nokia Store web-page by downloading with the PC that can't be done as N9 is not supported by the OVI/Nokia Suite.
For outside apps:
First you will need to download file-manager from Nokia store (filebox good free one).
Then you need to go settings -> applications -> installations -> allow other than only Nokia store.
Then you can attach the phone as mass memory and copy the application install file to Download folder and use the file-manager app to launch the installation from that folder.
note. that it's not really recommended to install applications outside from Nokia Store as it wont be as safe.

Im about to do a new fresh install of my X-Fi Xtreme Music and i want all the extra goodies that comes along with the CD, the consoles and such, but i want the newest drivers installed also. How to go about this?Should I install the programs AND the old drivers from the CD first, then un-install just the drivers and after that install the newest drivers?Or should i install the new drivers first and then install the programs from the CD ( and if its possible uncheck driver install there), would this work and is there that kind of option in the install process this way?I would love a quick response

Anyone who can help me out here? ppllllzzzzz

Transferring programs from my imac to my new macbook pro

I just bought a 15" macbook pro and wanted to transfer everyting from my older imac. I bought the fire wire cable but for some reason I am having a hard time getting this to work. Any ideas???? Will i be able to transfer my itunes library to my ne macbook pro? Please help.

There is something call disk mode. If you computer A is in disk mode then when connected to your computer B, computer B will see computer A as an external hard drive. To do this for computer A go to System Prederence>Start up disk. There is an option for you to restart your computer in disk mode.
