(Is this  needed) If have prior GB Versions Uninstalled on a new iMac +GB9'

??
Hi,
I used (prior) a eMac with Ilife V1 and V2 and hence GB 1 and GB 2, along with Jam Pack 1
(Discontinued. Non Genre Jam Pack 1) I bought a new Imac with GB 9' installed and (*this may be a be a very dumb question*) , ? are there items (Virtual Instruments and Loops from those two versions not included With iLife 9' and GB 5 installed on the iMac + are prior items included from prior iLife Versions (including V3and V4 of G-Band (iLife 06 and 08 I believe) or as some do some do not refer to the version of Garageband as V9 with iLife 09 (makes sense to me)
I have the earlier discs from iLife (V1 and V2) but do not want to corrupt GB either, I am planning to install the Jam Pack 1 and update 1.01, and the update(s) for GB 5 (iLife 9') 5.01 and 5.2 or 5.02 ?(I have those updates bookmarked) * or should I procede with GB 9 and any Jam pack Install's and updates to GB 9 and not worry about prior versions ( I do have 4 sealed Jam Packs, (left that way) as I may go to LE or Logic *and from what (different at times) I have read or told,The current 5 Jam packs are included in Logic Studio (I have all but World Music, have Rhythm Section, RemixTools, Voices and Symphony) I bought them this summer (new and sealed)(Not bootlegs or opened from a Apple Reseller (New and Refurbished) who holds a annual online Garage Sale and this year I checked and was able to get the four (at great prices) so Its a possible I may sell them to put sale proceeds toward LE or Logic Studio (but first my Audio Interface does not have Snow Leopard Drivers (topped at Leopard) it was a good run, and I need to check my MIDI Keyboard controller (though drivers are available through OSX 10.6.6 , I figured something or more than 1 gear item might not be compatible and its the Audio Interface and compared to when i bought a Tascam US-122 (USB 1.1) the market and options have exploded in choices
I bought and returned one Firewire 400 unit as it was just way to complex and there was no real reason for it (and I really researched too, my bad, choice) I did see a Unit from Namm 11 Winter (Jan 2011) a ART Dual Tube Pre USB 2.0 and has a optional power supply, works on batteries, and USB 2.0 power also (has two combo XLR/14 Inst Ins, 2 1/4 outs for monitors, Two 1/4 line inserts, and headphones out and SP/DIF out. The unit I returned was $399.99
and this unit with Power supply is $157.00, no MIDI but that is workable (or a work around is available if needed,for not that expensive, its due to ship late February 2011 so still time to think and look at new products from NAMM and sales will occur as well, the second choice (and a fine unit (imho) a Lexicon U42S I-Onix Series is USB 2.0 plus Power supply and 4 dbx mic preamps is $329.95 which is more than I do want to spend and it debuted at NAMM in 2009
(Winter) and with technology and Operating System updates and drivers that is a lot of time between then and now . Though no bash against Lexicon, They make great Reverb Hardware and Plugins plus other gear.
*The ART Product has no drivers whew..
Thanks for listening and any input + or - would be appreciated
* I did read on the Current Jam-packs that GB 2 is required (but GB9 works fine ) so I think based on its install and going forward am fine, just wondering if leaving behind virtual Instruments etc from GB 1 and 2 ?
Jam pack 1 I do not understand why that was discontinued, the Amps, effects and VI are great! loops are fine as well

Hi,
I am going to reword (hopefully) more basically my ?
I used Garageband Versions 1 and 2 ( as part of the first 2 iLife packages)
Since, I bought a current model imac with iLife 09 and Garageband 9' installed, I am wondering
"if" by not updating V1,V2V3V4V5 )with V6 iLife11 Garageband 11" out there as well
Am i leaving behind -lacking anything from the two (initial versions of Garageband ) or
Just move ahead with what is installed GB9' do any updates for it or Jam Packs , It sounds silly but just wondering
Thanks

    This is unknown, it will be up to Apple and AFAIK they haven't announced that yet.

    Growl has a long development history, is popular and performs a useful function. Many of your background applications use it send messages to your screen that tell you all kinds of useful things (if you're interested). Some applications ask you if you want them to install Growl for you - you or someone using your Mac may have answered 'yes' a long time ago, or it may have occurred without your permission. In any event, you might set it uyp and give it a try for a while, I think it will grow on you. If not, just remove it.

    You're running an older version of Pages, perhaps in a folder called "iWork '09" in the Applications folder, or else on your Desktop. Quit it and launch the one at the top level of Applications.

  • I can not sync my IPhone to My Imac. I have the latest version of ITunes on my Imac. I have tried reseting my phone (3), changing ports. Nothing works. I was thinking maybe my phone has the earlier version of ITunes but I can't update it.

    Hello discomonkey, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It appears that some iTunes Match songs appear grayed out when you try to download them to your iTunes library. If you haven't already, be sure to authorize iTunes on your iMac before downloading content from iCloud or the iTunes Store. 
    These steps can help you download grayed out songs to your iTunes library:
    Resolve issues with iTunes Match - Apple Support
    Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Authorize your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To find out what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized with to play a specific song, follow the steps below:
    Open iTunes.
    Locate and select the song that you want to play in your iTunes library.
    From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose File > Get Info.
    In the Summary tab, find the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down. 
    Click OK.
    From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
    Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
    From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose Store > Update iTunes Match.

  • I'd like Time Machine to backup my personal account's files separately from my guest account's files. Both have big files.  What's the best way to do this?  Should I connect 2 external HD to my new iMac, one for each account?

    Since my new external hard drive is have a lot of space, I'm thinking of splitting it for Time Machine and external storage.
    This is a common mistake and I highly advise against it.
    1: TimeMachine saves states of changes and thus requires more room on the TM drive than the boot drive it's backing up.
    2: Something happens to the TM drive, loss, theft, dropped, power surge, etc., you lose both backups.
    3: The storage drive might become a portable need, with it being on the TM drive, now your increasing the risk to the TM backup that something could happen to it along with the storage drive, due to increased movement.

  • I have two Macs: an MBA and the new iMac.  Is there a way to have iTunes and all the content in it identical on both machines?

    I have two Macs: an MBA and the new iMac.  Is there a way to have iTunes and all the content in it identical on both machines?

    Yes you can copy the content to your new machine and use Home Sharing to keep the content identical
    Connect the two machines via an ethernet cable it is 3 times faster than Wifi. Turn wifi off on one machine to enforce ethernet connection
    In System Preferences, Sharing turn on File Sharing
    Then
    Copy the music/itunes folder from the Macbook pro to the music/ folder on the imac
    Both machines should now have the same library
    Disconnect H the ethernet cable
    Set up Home Sharing and under Settings at the bottom of the Home Sharing page. Select to transfer new purchases.
    Do the same on the other machine.
    Then when you r machines are connected by wifi and each time you start itunes it will transfer your new purchases

  • My mac won't sync with my new nano it says I need to have OS X version 10.6.8 or later, when I try to update i tunes it says it is up to date

    Help

    The iMacs covered in this forum were made before 2006 and have PowerPC processors. Those processors cannot support any higher Mac OS than 10.5.8.
    If the bad forum lableing has led you here by mistake and you may have a newr processor, let's verify your machine's family. Please do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu. You will get a window like this:
    Note the "Processor line (second red arrow):
    <> If is includes the word "Intel" as above, you can upgrade to 10.6.x by purchasing a US$20 disk from Apple
    <> If it includes the word "PowerPC" you can upgrade no higher than OS 10.5.8.
    If you have an Intel iMac, let us know and I can get you moved to that forum--it's more active. Also, here is the web link for ordering 10.6 if you have an Intel iMac:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Newer iMacs can but updated farther, but require 10.6.6 minimum to have access to the App Store where upgrades are now delivered. If you have an Intel iMac, we will need to get more info to see exactly how far you can upgrade. That can wait, though.

  • Manually installing...do we need to have pevious Firefox versions installed before installing the latest version?

    We have found many versions ...NOTE: We perfer manual install...not auto updating.
    Firefox 3.0.15,
    Firefox 3.5.2,
    Firefox 3.5.5,
    Firefox 3.6.10,
    Firefox 3.6.6,

    Firefox 10.0.1,

    Could you please confirm whether we have to manually upgrade all the versions before manually installing the latest version (15.0.1).
    Please clarify.

    If you are updating you only need to install the latest version of Firefox (15.0.1, but 16 is being released tomorrow). Once you are updated though, you should be able to use the internal updater, it does just as good of a job.

  • Where can I down load older versions of FireFox for windows and Mac for testing my application? I need to have copies of version 3, 4 and 5.

    Firefox 3.5 is an antique version that is chock-full of security vulnerabilities.<br>
    Firefox 3.6 also contains security vulnerabilities; it stopped being supported on April 24.
    * [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/ www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/]
    If you can't run the latest version because your system doesn't meet the requirements, it's highly recommended that you use another browser that is secure. TenFourFox is a third-party build of Firefox that is kept up-to-date and runs on Mac OS X 10.4 and PowerPC Macs (as a side note, I've never seen the site go down; whatever problems James noticed 9 months ago must've been a fluke).

  • Need to transfer Logic from old Macbook Pro to new iMac - Best Way???

    Hey Everybody. I've got a new iMac showing up tomorrow which I couldn't be more excited about. I need to transfer/add all my Pro Audio Apps (Logic, Ableton, Native Instruments, Rob Papen, etc.) as well as iWork to the new computer but don't know the best way to do it. I could try and learn to do a formal "migrate" but I would prefer a clean install of all my programs.
    Let me know if you have any tips! Thank you for your time!

    When you turn on your machine for the first time it will ask you if you want to migrate from another Mac, simply choose yes and follow the on-screen directions. If your old machine has a Firewire 800 connection get a cable like this if it only has FW 400 then get a cable like this. You may be able to find these at your local computer store if not then as you can tell Amazon has them as well as many other online suppliers.
    Your migration should be very straight forward, simply ensure your old machine is has run all software updates and is in good working order. As in any many change ensure you backup the old machine prior to starting the operation. Within a few hours all the information should should have migrated and you will be able to pick up where you left off on the old machine.
    Regards,
    Roger
