Iphoto and Imovie

Couple of questions:
- Are movies and video stored in both Iphoto and Imovie - how do I delete them from Iphoto? Are they currently stored twice on the hard drive or just once?
- Can I select photos only to copy when putting images onto a usb stick?

Hi ajz85:
If you are going to use video clips you will need to use imovie.
Oh-and welcome to the discussions!

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
    What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward.
