Installation of iphoto and imovie

Panther experts!
My ibook is currently running Mac OS Tiger. How can I install iPhoto and iMovie from the Panther installation disk onto my ibook? Is it possible to run Panther apps on Tiger?
Thanks.

You can try to install the iPhoto and iMovie from your old Panther 10.3.x restore-install
disc set into your computer that is running Tiger 10.4.x now. This may be best done by
the use of the shareware Pacifist. This will run in a demo mode, so it can be done now.
The download can be updated to a fully functional utility for a relatively small fee.
The hardware in your computer would limit you to older iLife versions, due to the
graphics processor and other old hardware in that computer. My older iMac G4 800
with 17" LCD and superdrive, worked well with iLife '06; but would've been marginal
with iLife '08 or later. You could get the iLife '06 installer disc set inexpensively, used.
Panther in your install-restore disc set has an even older iLife assortment of apps;
and these create or produce old-style versions of files that may be incompatible
with the newer versions out there now. Or, shared newer content would not work in
the iLife version from that long ago. Some upgrade (convert/save) may be likely so
an older version iLife item could be used in a newer iLife, but that is speculative.
{For image editing, I prefer a freeware download application that does many things
well and inexpensively; and I recommend it. Look up ToyViewer. To be familiar in
how it works and all of what it can do for you, takes some time. It is quite able.}
You can move your old AppleWorks from your Panther restore install disc into the
current OS in your computer (Tiger) by the Pacifist method; if you do not wish to go
the full route of upgrading a new installation from Panther then overlay upgrade to
Tiger. Some of the older restore install disc sets also allow you to install OS 9.2
from the install-restore disc set. Since your computer can dual-boot, be sure the
drivers are installed in the formatting process; even if you don't install OS9.2 that
does cover the possibility should you ever wish you could boot from OS 9 to fix
an issue in OS X. And you own the discs that came with the computer, already; so
your license to use their content in one computer should remain intact.
Pacifist can be a fun challenge, for info & download: http://www.charlessoft.com/
There are a few ways for it to work; sometimes, it does not do what was expected.
ToyViewer now has a version 5.0, see info and download from the home page:

Good luck & happy computing!

  • How to reinstall Garageband, iPhoto and iMovie

    Three weeks ago, while I was surfing the net, the Macbook I was using suddenly displayed a message asking me to turn off and restart.  I turned it off but it could not get restarted beyond the "sign on" screen.  I tried to reinstall the OSx by using the CD that came along with the Macbook, but it could not work either. So I brought the Macbook to an authorised Apple Store, the technician on duty tried to do the installation as well but to no avail.  I was told to leave the set there and to collect it 4 days later.  True enough, I got my set back after the third day, I was told that since I upgraded the OSx from Snow Leopard to Lion, I could no longer use the CDs for reinstallation.  The store also warned me that for this round, the reinstallation was free but for similar future installation, I would have to pay for service charge (by the way, my set is still under warranty).
    The store also told me that I could reinstall Lion on-line but then I found these applications iPhoto, iMovie and GrarageBand missing after the reinstallation.  Again the technician on duty reinstalled Lion several times but could not get these applications back.  With no other help available, I took the set home and tried reinstallation several more times and tried downloading these applications without success.  Finally, I went on-line to Apple Store to do a download, for iPhoto and iMovie I was billed but for GarageBand it was also downloaded but could not work, each time I click the icon, an error message "the instrument library is invalid" appear. Can anyone please help.

    That is completely incorrect.

    All you need to do to get these applications back is to insert disc 2 that originally came with your mac.  I know this for sure because I just did a fresh install of Lion and the applications were missing as well, so I inserted disc 2 that came with my mac and reinstalled them (my mac originally came with Snow Leopard). It has those applications on it as well as the Apple Hardware Test.  The people who you talked to have no idea what they are talking about.

  • Lost iphoto and imovie????

    I went to look at some photos today and iphoto wouldn't come up it's on the desk top with a big ? mark over it. imovie is gone completely?? The only thing that I have done recently is sync an ipad all my photos seem to be on there and my phone ok. Could I reinstall my op system again and then sync all the photos back?? Any thoughts? Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Note: iPhoto and iMovie are not a part of the retail installation, unless you bought the Mac OS X Box set. You can recover them from the installer discs that came with your Mac, if the version is compatible with the currently installed system, or install from a compatible iLife retail set, or the Mac OS X Box Set that is compatible.
    In the future always backup your data to avoid data loss*:

    Cloning when you have a functional system avoids the frustration of not knowing where something may be, as an exact copy of your system will be made.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks I cannot update iPhoto and iMovie. Why?

    Just got my first Mac, an iMac. I upgraded to Maverick and once done I find there are updates available for iPhoto and iMovie. First I have tried to register "accept" the two apps. Nothing happens. Then I try to update them and get the answer that these apps was installed with another Apple ID. The thing is that I don't have any other Apple ID and noone else has touched my iMac. I have tried to reinstall Maverick three times now but end up with the same result. Anyone who has any clue or have experienced the same problem?

    Open System Preferences > Users & Groups then select the Password tab.
    Make sure you see the correct Apple ID.
    If not, click Change.
    Make sure you are logged into your admin account before updating apps.
    Reinstalling Mavericks requires using OS X Recovery  but there's no reason to reinstall Mavericks just to update your apps.

    I am having the same problem.  I even changed my password and updated all of my security information.  Now it just gives me an error and retry message, which of course also does not work.  Went to support and was going to open a chat (seemed the simpler option) and received a message that my support has expired for this serial number unless I want to pay $29.00.  So I chose the option to call later, which was the exact time suck I was trying to avoid.  Why wouldn't the new operating system also update the apps that were already part of my old platform?

  • Unable to update iPhoto and iMovie. "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID"

    I updated to Yosemite and all went well but for the message "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID" for the two apps iPhoto and iMovie. I have tried using the terminal window and used code that others have suggested and obtained a SmartSearch. I deleted everything in that folder and I still can't update these two apps. The other apps updated without problems. Thanks for any help.

    For a couple of years now, the verson of the iLife apps that come preinstalled on new Macs are the Mac App Store (MAS) versions. MAS apps have the Apple ID that bought them encoded in the app as an anti-piracy scheme. Since these apps are preinstalled, before using any of the three apps, the new Mac owner must open the MAS, go to the Purchases pane and accept these apps into their MAS account. This allows the MAS to encode the owners Apple ID into the apps.
    Failure to accept these apps into your account and have them encoded with your Apple ID before using one of them renders the apps "as is" and they cannot be updated or downloaded to another Mac. The only way that I know of to rectify the problem is to use OS X Recovery to erase the Mac and reinstall OS X and the iLife apps, so that the initial setup can be attempted again and the apps be accepted into the MAS account and encoded with the Apple ID.

  • Unable to update iPhoto and iMovie?

    When i try to update iPhoto and iMovie, this first message appears: "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID - This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again" so i press ok and a second message appears: "We could not complete your request - There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (100)"
    Can someone explain me what this error means? and what can i do to fix it?
    Thank you

    It means what it says: The apps were bought or installed by someone with a different ID to yours. So, in effect, these are belong to that person and you can't update them.
    This can arise if you've bought a second hand machine, or if you've bought an open box machine, or even if the Mac was set up for you by the shop where you bought it. Or, if you used one Apple ID to set up the machine and are using a different one now. Of course, it can also be caused by installing pirated software.
    So, what to do:
    Where did you get the machine? If it was second hand, or open box then you need to get back to the vendor.
    If you used a different Apple ID then sign in with that one.
    And, if the software is pirated then delete it and purchase legally.
    Other than that:
    Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They're the only ones who can sort out account issues.

  • HT4710 Updates for iPhoto and iMovie in the Mac App Store

    Hi,
    I recently bought a new computer running Lion. When I started using the computer, I opened the Mac App Store and signed in with my Apple ID (the same one I've always used for buying apps from there, music from the iTunes store, and apps for my iPhone). I am able to easily access and download my old purchased apps to my new computer without a problem. However, in the updates section it shows updates available for both iPhoto and iMovie, but when I go to update them I get this message, "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." iPhoto and iMovie came on the new computer, and the only Apple ID account that I have ever used is the one that I am currently signed in under. Does anyone have any idea how I can get these updates, or at the very minimum, get rid of them so that they do not show up anymore (frankly, I find the red circle very annoying, and I don't really use either of these apps so I'm not too concerned about them).
    Thanks!
    Sorry, I found a few other questions about this same thing after posting, so I'll try those solutions.

    Open iTunes on the new Mac, sign into your account and view your account information. There is a section for Purchase History where you can view the invoices for everything that you have ever bought from the iTunes stores and the Mac App Store.

  • I deleted iPhoto and iMovie which came with my system , how do i reinstall it without paying for the app

    Hi,
    I have a mac book pro retina, i had iPhoto and iMovie app with the OS while purchase. the iPhoto and iMovie updates were using my old apple-id and i wasnt able to update my app due to that, so i deleted those apps and wanted to reinstall that. so my new apple-id would be picked up.
    but i didnt realize these were paid apps. ouch. so is there a way i can restore these apps ?
    thanks
    shankar

    Have you tried signing in with your old Apple ID? All software obtained at the app store is tied to the Apple ID used to obtain it forever. If you start with a new Apple ID, then you will need to purchase it again.
    FWIW, please do not post duplicate posts - it gets too confusing.

  • How to change the Apple ID for iPhotos and iMovies(The first ID used in the mac book)?

    I found that every time when I want to update the iphotos and imovies and the native apps in the mac book it is needed to use the first apple id that used for the first time you turn on the mac book.
    Since that id is not used now and i want to change it, any body knows how to change it?
    And although my current admin id has changed, but still when updating iphotos the very first id is needed...

    Correct.  Apps are Tied to the Apple ID that Purchased them...
    From Here   http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • HT4623 Why can I not get the iPhoto and iMovie apps for free on my new iPad air

    I have an iPhone 5 but just got an iPad air for Christmas. I didn't realize I set my iPad up under another Apple ID until my phone was not syncing with my iPad so I erased all content and reset the device to put them both on the same Apple ID. The problem I'm having now is the apps that are supposed to be free like iPhoto and iMovie are saying I have to pay 4.99 for them how do I fix this problem. Cause I did have them installed when I had it set up under the other Apple ID name :(
    Thank you

  • IPod Touch 64GB activated October 2013 - how do I get the free iLife, iPhoto and iMovie apps?

    I purchased (from an authorised seller - Dixons Duty Free, Heathrow) and activated an iPod Touch 64GB on 18th October 2013 (prior to the announcement of free iLife, iPhoto and iMovie apps but after the 1st Sepember 2013 date in their conditions). It had iOS6 preinstalled. I've updated to iOS7. How do I get the free iLife, iPhoto and iMovie apps? The App Store is trying to charge me for theese.

    Problem solved from information found in another thread....
    If your iOS device was activated for the first time after September 1, go to the App Storeon your iPod which should open to Featured. If not, tap on Featured at the lower left of the screen & scroll down to Collections & tap on New to the App Store? then scroll down to Apps Made by Apple & tap. You should now see the iWork & iLife apps as "FREE."

  • Problem updating pre-installed iPhoto and iMovie "to update this application, sign into the account you used to purchase it"

    My dad bought a new retina macbook pro over a year ago.
    The pre-installed iPhoto and iMovie applicaitons get this error when trying to download an update:
    "to update this application, sign into the account you used to purchase it"
    We are logged into the only account that he has ever had.
    He has mountain lion. 
    It's very annoying and there's no way we know of to get around it. Searching and searching online led nowhere.
    Please help!!!!!

    You cannot.
    As requested... You need to use the SAME Apple ID that Originally made the Purchase of whatever Application you are trying to Update.

    I am being prompted to update iPhoto and iMovie, but getting the message: "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it."  These came already loaded on my laptop, and my email has not changed.  Any ideas or work-arounds?

    Has your Apple ID changed, that's the one that matters.
    You need to sign in under the account that purchased these apps (did you buy this Mac new)

  • HT1338 Can't update my iPhoto and iMovie! Always pop up a window says "you have updates available for other accounts; To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it."

    How could I update my apps with my only apple account?

    I had this issue too after installing Mountain Lion (like others in the thread, I also just have one account/ID). The Spotlight fix didn't work. I ended up uninstalling iPhoto and iMovie and purchasing them from the App Store, hoping I'd be able to claim a refund later. It got rid of the update messages fine, but it's harder than I expected to find somewhere to ask for a refund. I can't enter a Taiwan number to call on the support site.
    This is my first Mac - what with this and the ML battery bug, things aren't going as smoothly as I expected.
