Installing an old version of Logic on a new Macbook Pro

I just purchased a Macbook Pro 13" non-retina and would like to know if (and how) I can install an old version of Logic Pro, such as Logic Pro 9 rather than the latest version, which is Logic Pro X.

It depends on which version of LP9 you own.....
If you don't already own an earlier version you cannot buy Logic Pro 9 any longer from Apple.. It is discontinued....
If you do own an earlier version then...
App Store version? Just sign into the Mac App Store... using the same Apple ID you used to purchase Logic in the first place...and Logic Pro 9 will be found under the Purchase Tab for you to click on and download..
DVD Version? Install via DVDs .... If you don't have a DVD player in your Mac you will need to purchase an external one.... or use another Mac which has a DVD drive using Remote Disk
DVD or CD sharing: Using Remote Disc
Install....
Do not run Logic but instead....
Update to 9.1.8 via this link....
Logic Pro 9.1.8
Now launch Logic....

    As has been mentioned, the software in Mac OS X that supported the running of PPC applications rather than current Intel applications on Intel computers such as your MBP was last seen in Snow Leopard. However, since I believe your MBP originally came with Snow Leopard, you may be able to boot from the DVD's that came with the computer and install it on an external HD and try to install Quark on that.
    I think a better solution would be to buy Snow Leopard Server from Apple by phone (800-692-7753 and be specific about wanting part # MC588Z/A), installing it as a virtual machine in software like VMware Fusion, and then installing Quark 6 in that. You'll still need a license number to authorize the Quark installation.

  • Can I install an earlier version of Bootcamp on my new Macbook Pro so that I can dual boot to XP rather than Windows 7??

    I have a new MacBook Pro and would like to dual boot ot XP. Is this possible using the Bootcamp version that comes with it? I wonder whether Apple have XP drivers for the new MacBook or if they have only developed those for Windows 7? Thanks in advance!

    Just install XP into a Virtual Machine. Like VMware Fusion, Parallels or Virtual Box.
    Then you can run both OS X & XP at the same time. No need to dual boot with XP as it doesn't use that many rsources and runs fine in a VM.

    You need to restore the pre-upgrade backup of the library file in the manner shown in  Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

  • How do I install an old version of photoshop on a new computer? [was:Photoshop]

    How do I install an old version of photoshop on a new computer?

    So you can install.
    Which version are you installing? Which operating system?
    The real issue here seems to be that your serial number is not being accepted?
    Are you entering the correct serial number?

  • Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro.  Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep.  How do I resolve ?

    Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh?  If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized.  Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool.  Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • , how do I import a book from Iphoto on my old computerPower book G4 to my new MacBook pro?

    how do I import a book from Iphoto on my old computerPower book G4 to my new MacBook pro?

    I just tried to move my old iPhoto Library from the G4 to a new Macbook. The G4 and files were very old, from 2001.
    When I opened Iphoto for the first time, it said it needed to "upgrade" the library", so I selected OK. It gave a message that this could take an hour or longer with a lot of photos -- I have around 9,000 stored so I figured it would take awhile.
    It finished in about 3 minutes, but there were no photos or albums to be found.
    I checked on the drive and iPhoto has converted the old library files and photo files to a "package" called "iphoto library" that has no file extension.
    If I show package contents, I can see a whole raft of new files, folders etc. I can see a file in there called "library6.iphoto" Some folders appear to be organized by years, if I dig down in the folders, all the photos appear to still be present. The general size of the "package" file is almost identical to the old folder, around 25.3 megabytes, so it seems all the photos and information is there, but its just not reading it.
    Now IPhoto still says " to begin, connect a camera, drag photos to iPhoto, or import a file.....
    I downloaded the "library manager" file and pointed it at the "iphoto library" file but it does not even see it.
    Grrr... what can I do to recover this.

  • Install logic on my new macbook pro 2012

    Hi guys,
    ive been scrolling the internet for days and actually can't find the solution to my next problem:
    I bought the new macbook pro 15" running mac osx 10.7.4.
    now i want to install logic 9 on this computer. Before this i've already been using logic on two computers, my Mac Pro and my older macbook pro (2008).
    I installed logic pro 9 as in upgrade to Logic pro 8.
    Ive tried installing logic pro 8 on the new laptop but it wont let me, says the new macbookpro doesnt support this program anymore.
    Now ive tried installing logic 9 on the new macbook pro and it wont allow me. It wont accept my product liscence, I've tried it a hundred times, but it just wont let me.
    Im not planning on using the older laptop anymore, should i uninstall logic from it? If so... how come i can't find the location of the liscence?
    really hope hearing from u guys soon....
    AJ

    Try this..
    Copy the logic 8 icon from you old system to your new MB Pro application folder then try to install LP 9..
    Let us know result.
    I think the OP will need to try and run L8 after he copies it, enter the serial for L8 then install the L9 upgrade.
    Logic 8 will run in Lion, it just won't install because the L8 install uses some PowerPC code that needs the Rosetta emulation. Lion doesn't do Rosetta.

  • Installing Windows XP on VM Fusion on a new MacBook Pro.

    I hope that I didn't just mess myself up and lose $151.00. While waiting... and waiting... waiting for my new MacBook Pro, I decided to order VM Fusion and Windows XP to install on it when it arrives. I know NOTHING about Windows. I got VM Fusion from Apple. But, I kept running into problems ordering Windows XP. I didn't know which "version" to order. I kept finding versions which said "upgrade." I'm not upgrading from an older Windows OS. So, I figured that one would not work for me. Then, I kept running into a problem with retailers saying they do not have any Windows XP software available, because Microsoft does not distribute it anymore. I finally found it available at Tiger Direct and ordered it for $149 plus shipping. Well, it came and it says OEM version (NOT returnable for ANY reason.) What does that mean? Will it work for me? All I need it for is to enable me to use IE 7 on my Mac, as so many sites will not allow Macs to access them.

    Hi chenderson22,
    OEM version of Windows that are not manufacturer-branded (like from Dell, Compaq, HP and the like) usually work very well with Macs whether vis BootCamp or via Fusion (Parallels, VirtualBox).
    Manufacturer-branded versions of Windows usually only work on the same computer they were originally sold with.
    So, if your OEM version has no other manufacturer name on it than Microsoft, you're clear to go ahead.
    Take care

  • Trouble after installing a time machine back up on my new macbook pro

    The time machine back up actually worked well.  The issue is that the new mac is a macbook pro and the time machine install was from a mid 2009 Macbook air.   It is saying that the mail program cannot be used on the operating system.   I would assume it has installed an old mail program on my new machine and that is the issue.  The machine does not come with a cd to install the upgraded mail so how do I fix this issue?

    I accidentally bypassed the restore from Time capsule portion when I first started the computer so had to do this.
    You actually don't want to do this.  The hardware in your new MacBook Pro is significantly different from your 2009 Air.  You may end up with stability issues and potentially a system that won't even boot into the OS.  Podini's suggestion is best.

  • Can I use my old Design Suite CS5 on my new MacBook Pro?

    I bought the Design Suite CS5 two, three years ago and now I have bought a new MacBook Pro. I've heard that I cannot use the programs that I bought, and that I now have to start subscribing to the programs using Creative Cloud. Is this true?

    Absolutely untrue.  Download, install, and activate your software from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-product-downloads.html
    Deactivate the software on your old computer if you don't use it any more.

  • Old ipod won't mount to new macbook pro

    Hello, I just set up my new MacBook Pro, and when I try to connect my ipod, it won't mount either to the desktop or into iTunes. the screen of the ipod says "do not disconnect" just like with the old computer... and I transferred my account and music and settings from the old one to the new one.
    anyone have any ideas?
    thanks,
    Bruce
    Oh yeah... it's a 40 Gig with a scroll wheel... not sure the "name" of the generation, it says "copyright 2003" on the back.
    and my new shuffle works just fine with the new computer...

    Which version of iTunes does your new MacBook have? You will probably want to update it if it isn't 9.2. Do that first. Also, restart your MacBook book. That will make sure that everything else is working properly as well (I'm thinking USB ports).
    If your touch is still not recognized, you will need to make sure that Apple Mobile Device Services is running properly on the MacBook. See this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747
    And if you are close to an Apple store and tired of playing with it, make an appointment with Genius and take your MacBook and touch in and let Apple fix it.

    My Problem is, how can i install the  logic studio with the dvds if there is no dvd device?
    thanks for you advise and ideas!

    The same way you have to install all software that comes on CD/DVD:
    either you buy an external DVD USB drive
    or you share the drive from a second Mac (via the Sharing system preferences)
