Installing iWork into new iMac.

Software ask for me to login with administrates name and password. The computer was set up by Apple Techs after a purchased. They must have put in this info to do the transfer of info from my old computer.
Is there a standard code and password. Seems they would have told me this info. I cannot install my iWork software!

If the Apple techs can't help (although they should be able to), try the first or last procedure mentioned in Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password.

If you purchased it from the Mac App Store, sign in with the Apple ID used to buy it, click on the Purchases tab, and download it from there.
If you purchased it from the iTunes App Store, you can't without getting the Mac OS X version.

Iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY???

iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY??? How do I get it?

It did come pre-installed, have you looked in the Applicaitons folder and have you checked Trash to see if you (or some other user on your computer) threw it in there? If it's still not there, then restart in the Recovery Partition on your iMac (hold down the Option key when you hear the startup tone) and choose re-install OS X.

Problem installing on my new iMac

I have an ugrade version of Photoshop Elements 10/Premier Elements 10. I have recently changed from a Windows based machine to a new iMac. I obviously do not have my previous software installed on my new iMac. I suspect that there may be a problem to install my software for that reason, but in addition, I get the following error messages:

Hi dr_dmd,
Please try renaming the folder : /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE to OOBE_old
After renaming unstall the PRE and PSE completly from /Applications/utilities/Adobe Installers and then try to install.
If still you face the same problem then please let us provide the list of Adobe software which are installed on your computer.

Trying to re-install iWork '08 on iMac 10.5.8, but told serial number is invalid.

I still think you're looking at the wrong sticker. The retail boxes do have stickers which are marketing info usually identifying the marketing number & whether the package is a single-user or family-pack license box. I'm sorry, but I can't find my iWork boxes & stickers to scan to show you right now as we are packed to move in the next couple of weeks.
The serial number is a lot more than four digits. Mine is 23 digits plus hyphens, a mix of letters & numbers. It also is not on the installation booklet. As I said before, it's on a sticker (there are two identical stickers) on a separate CD-size piece of paper. The stickers were intended to be removed & affixed to the installation booklet, which you may have done.

Can AppleWorks from my '05 G5 be installed in my new iMac?

When I purchased my g5 in 2005, appleworks came standard. yesterday, I purchased a new iMac and now appleworks (along with spreadsheet and something else i'll never use) cost $70 or $80, so I was hoping that I may be able to install the appleworks from my 05 G5. is this possible?
thanks in advance,
Jeremiah

In the original Appleworks 6 install log on the G5, the installer created a number of folders in the System folder as well as the Appleworks 6 folder in /Applications. Those folders contain Help files, fonts, MacLink Plus translators, etc. When you say "Any AppleWorks associated files that are required by the application will be created as they are needed, and should NOT be transferred," are these the files you refer to?
The key phrase there is "required by the application".
In the "System Folder"
I do see an AppleWorks folder in my Application Support folder.
It contains many of the items you mention.
and a Claris folder containing the older XTND translators and some other files,
And an AppleWorks folder in the Preferences folder.
This is the Mac OS 9 System Folder, and the enclosed files are not required by AppleWorks running in OS X. (And running in OS 9 requires Classic, which is not supported on intel based Macs.)
It MAY be useful to move fonts and the translators to the new machine, and I doubt that doing so will do harm, but I can't make a recommendation either way.
In the "System" folder, which belongs to OS X, I don't see any of these items.
Alternatively, should I just use the original Appleworks CD and the 6.2.9 updater (thanks for the link!) to do a clean install of Appleworks on the 10.6 iMac? I know it will need Rosetta to run. I figure I could then move my custom Appleworks templates into the new Starting Points folder.
Installation from your original AW (retail box) CD will either work or return a "not supported on this architecture" or similar message. The message, if returned refers to the installer on the disk, not to AppleWorks 6.2.x.

Firwire cable not fitting into new imac 24"!

My imac 24" has just arrived...
I bought a 6 pin to 6 pin firewire cable to migrate my stuff from my G4.
The cable fits into the G4 but not the imac 24"!!!!
What am i doing wrong?
Also,can i migrate stuff later after playing around withthe new imac?
thanks in advance!

So is it too late to use the firewire to migrate my stuff?
The only things i definatley will migrate will be documents,photos and itunes library.
No, it's not too late. You can still connect the two systems via Firewire Target Disk Mode and use the Migration Assistant (in your iMac's Applications -> Utilities folder) to bring over all your documents. Or you can just drag them over manually.
I don't recommend migrating applications from a PowerPC-based Mac to an Intel-based one. It's rare, but sometimes it has happened that the Migration Assistant overwrites a previouly-installed Intel-native app with the PowerPC-based one. I don't think Migration Assistant will copy all the extra folders for Adobe's apps anyway, though I could be wrong. I'd suggest just reinstalling Photoshop and Word on the new system.

PSE 8 wont install on my new imac

Hi Ankush,
I see you have helped so many others and am hoping you can help me too. I am starting a new thread as you requested.
I had PSE 6 installed on my old mac G4. I transferred everything by a firewire cable to my brand new imac. PSE 6 wont work on my new imac so I upgraded and bought PSE 8 which wont install. I get 95% through installation and it fails stating "error 2".
I have uninstalled (using the adobe uninstallers) PSE 6 & PSE 8.
I ran the analyzer and it said to run the clean program (I did for CS3 and CS4). It also stated that Minion Pro-Bold font was a problem. I cant find it under the font section. PSE 8 still wont install.
Thank you!
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
Ok. So let us go step by step:
1. Uninstall PSE 8 again from your machine through Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers/Uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.app
2. Now browse through the below location on your Hard Disk
<Macintosh HD>/Library/Fonts/
Check if there is any empty/non-empty folder present here saying "Minion Pro-Bold" ? If yes, then move that folder on your desktop.
If not, and say there is a font file present in this location saying Minion Pro-Bold.otf, then move that font file on the desktop.
3. Now try to install PSE 8 again.
4. If it works, hooray, our problem is resolved, go ahead and delete the empty/non-empty folder which you copied on desktop in step 2. If there is a font file(.otf format) which you moved on desktop then ypou can move it back inside the Fonts folder.
5. If it doesnt, then please attach the installer log file which can be located at below location to this forum thread, I will look into it more closely then:
<Macintosh HD>/Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers/"..Adobe Photoshop Elements 8...gz"
<Macintosh HD>/Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers/"..Uninstall Adobe Photoshop Elements 8...gz"
(If there are multiple log files in the above location, then please attach the one having latest timestamp.)

Welcome window doesn't appear when installing CS5 on new imac

I'm trying to install CS5 into my new imac but after I inserted the Application disc 1, nothing happens. the welcome window doesn't appear. No window to fill in serial #s, etc. Installed Acrobat with no problem though. Thanks.

Thanks for your response Jeff. I'm still getting myself familiar with Lion and obviously handicapped with these tech stuff so pardon my ignorance. I didn't see the DVD icon the way I used to in earlier OS so just assumed it wasn't working the way Acrobat worked (the first DVD I inserted). Now, I transferred the contents of my backup drive onto my new imac and see both CS4 and CS5 transferred into the Applications folder. Does that mean the softwares are installed or do I need to install them through the DVDs? Don't want to accidentally screw up anything. If I just dragged and deleted CS4, does that completely remove it out of my iMac? thanks so much for your help.

Installing Appleworks on new iMac

I just replaced my iMac G5 (running Tiger) with a new Intel-based iMac (also running Tiger). The G5 came with Appleworks bundled; the new one did not. I'm reasonably sure that it is legal for me to install Appleworks on the new iMac (as long as I remove it from the old one); I just don't know how. It won't allow me to install from the install/restore CDs that came with the G5. Can I just copy the Appleworks (US English) folder to the Applications folder on the new machine?

Hi
You should be able to do just that, yes, using firewire. Try just dragging & dropping from 1 computer to the other, if that fails:
Shut down both computers
Connect computers using 6-pin to 6-pin firewire cable.
Boot up Intel iMac normally.
Boot up G5 holding down T until firewire symbol appears on screen.
Navigate to HD/Applications on Intel.
Navigate to HD/Applications on G5.
Put windows side-by-side.
Drag & drop Appleworks folder into Intel's Applications folder.
Eject G5's disk icon & shutdown G5.
Shut down Intel.
Disconnect wire.
One more thing, make sure it's Appleworks 6.2.4 or above.

Trouble installing CS4 on new iMacs

Since I cannot insert disks into the new iMacs(there is no drive), I was told to copy the content onto my desktop, and install it that way. When I open istaller, the content from disk 1 is installed successfully, but then it asks me to insert disk 2. Since I already the content of disk 2, I just press "ok," but nothing happens; it just keeps repeating the same prompt for me to insert disk 2. I would image this is because the installer reads when another disk is inserted, but since there is no disk drive, it doesn't think I've done anything. As a result, only the content from disk 1 is installed. How can I install the whole thing?

Follow the steps mentioned the below link, it will give you a step by step workflow to perform Desktop installation :-

As a workaround you could download the CS4 software from and then use this to install.

Need to do a clean install on my new iMac

I have a new iMac and after migrating everything from my old one, I am getting some strange problems. Things like not being able to shut down without doing a forced shut down and some other small things here and there that Apple have not been able to figure out. I thought I should do a clean install instaed of a full migration and I wonder if anyone has any tips on doing this in the most efficient way, while migrating all my data and info and such, but making sure that I don't just bring back the same problems. I have everything on a Time Machine back up.

CDs are no longer required, in fact no OS X version has been available on optical media for three versions now.
To erase the disk or to reinstall OS X use OS X Recovery: Hold ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. Your iMac has a Recovery partition already on the disk, and if you need to replace that disk with an empty one, your iMac has firmware that conveys the ability to download OS X directly from Apple's servers, and create a new Recovery partition on the new disk.
For a more thorough description addressing all options start with the following, courtesy of the late Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini: 19. I got a new Mac, or a new or erased internal HD -- now what?
Beware of any incompatible software that Migration Assistant may transfer from Macs running earlier OS X versions.
Anything you purchased from the Mac App Store or the iTunes Store can be downloaded and installed again on as many Macs as you own, as often as required, assuming the purchased items remain available from their respective stores.
