Jam Pack: Symphony Orchestra not working on new iMac with Maverick

Hi,
i received my new iMac 27 inch Haswell with Maverick installed.
I migrated most of the stuff i need but it seems the Symphony Orchestra Jam Pack instruments weren't migrated to Garageband.
Now i read somehwere that this JamPack doesn't work on Maverick.
Is there a way to download the Jam Pack again? I can't find them anywhere. Why doesn't Apple sell these in the store?
I can't try to install the JamPack again since i don't have a CD Rom drive in my iMac...
How can i restore these instruments on my Garageband?? I need them.
Thanx

MainStage is for setting up a live performance and performing music. It has many instruments and effects. GarageBand is for mixing song arrangements and creating finished songs.
I have never really used MainStage, just for playing my guitar. I bought it to get current installers for the JamPacks.
After you install MainStage, you need to open and run it at least once, to download the full set of instruments and loops.
This will bring up this panel:

Wacom Intuos Tablet and Pen not working on new iMac with OSX 10.9.4

Hi there, I've been using an A3 Wacom Intuos tablet and pen for many years now on a 2006 iMac for my illustration work, but I cannot get them to appear or work on my new iMac with OSX 10.9.4. I think they are the original Wacom Intuos tablet and pen. Does anyone know if they are just out of date now and aren't supported on the new OSX 10.9.4? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I need to work and it's frustrating!
Many thanks,

I have done as you suggested; I uninstalled PSE 11 and set my wife's account up as admin and reinstalled from there. Still have the same problem with my wife's account, but when I went to mine it is working correctly. Any ideas on why that would be? I'm sure it should work on both accounts. I have 2 accounts on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and it works on both.
Thanks for your help; at least it's working on my account so that's a great improvement.

Fast user switching animation not working on new iMac with 10.9.1

I have a late 2013 iMac with the GeForce GTX 780M, pre-installed with 10.9 and then immediately updated to 10.9.1 out of the box.
I imported my adminstrator account from an older iMac with Mountain Lion, using Migration Assistant. No problems experienced there whatsoever. I then separately imported a second user account from the same Mountain Lion install. Both accounts are functioning normally.
However, when I switch between these accounts, the fast user switching animation (rotating cube) does not occur - it just instantly switches screens, without even a fade in/out effect.
I made sure the display settings on each account are identical down to the last detail, even the same color sync profiles. I also created a fresh 'test' user account with default Mavericks settings, yet switching to that from either of the imported accounts does not have the animation either.
Any suggestions on how to trouble-shoot this? I have 'Googled' it, but all the refrences are from earlier version of OS X from 2003-2009 and mention things like not having enough graphical processing power - obviously not an issue here.

I tried (on both user accounts):
1. Flushing all the caches using Onyx
2. Deleting the 'com.apple.desktop.plist' files.
3. Switching each user account to non-standard resolutions and back again.
The lack of the rotating cube effect is not the worst of it, as about 50% of the time I switch accounts I get an 'empty' desktop in the account I have just switched to, and I can only get the desktop icons to appear again by switching back and forth a few times. Extremely frustrating.
I am starting to think this is yet another bug in Mavericks or a problem with the graphic drivers for the new GTX 775 / 780 cards.

Jam Pack Symphony Orchestra

Has anyone experienced difficulty installing a Jam Pack (Symphony Orchestra)? My Logic Express recognizes the loops in the loops browser, but the software instruments do not appear. I have loaded it twice, updated my version of LE...any suggestions?

HI,
I think this may be a bug. You have to change the channel in of the mod wheel or foot pedal or whatever to channel four I think it is from your midi keyboard and then it will control stacatto and legato etc. - this is different from in Garageband. If this doesn't work do a search on one of the key words and the answer should come up.
Good luck,

How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?

How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?

Do you own a copy of Aperture, perhaps bought for another Mac?
If you have not bought Aperture, you need to buy it from the AppStore.
But if you own Aperture and have it bought from the AppStore on another Mac, sign into theAppStore on your new iMac with the same AppleID you used to buy Aperure on your other Mac. Then look at the "Purchased" tab of he AppStore. It show Aperture, with the "Install" button to the right. Simply press the "Install" button and download it to your new iMac. Or if you have bought Aperture on a CD/DVD, run the installer from the CD/DVD on your new mac and immediately run software update to upgrade the Aperture 3. version to version that will run with Mavericks.

I reinstalled tiger on one iMac, but want to re-upgragde it to Lion. I don't have the discs anymore, but I installed Lion from the Mac App Store. Now that I'm back to 10.4, I don't have the App Store. I have a new iMac with Mavericks, but it won't let

I have a 2006 iMac that I've upgraded to each new os as they came out. I just wiped it (for the kids to use, I have a new iMac with Mavericks) and reintalled Tiger from the original discs. I want to get it back to Lion - which I purchased from the Mac App Store. But Tiger doesn't have the App Store and I don't have the discs anymore from the intermediate versions. I tried downloading Lion from the new iMac but it's not available...
Any ideas?

To get to the App Store, you need to upgrade the Tiger machine to Snow Leopard.

Function keys don't work on New IMac with Leopard.. very sad

We just got a New IMac with Leopard at work and my F Keys don't work at all. I have tried everything, even checking the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys", but it doesn't work at all. I use these keys all the time. How can I fix this?

WebWolf wrote:
My Bad, I am sure I am not the only one that has done this. I had not assigned the F Keys to their function under Exposé, I thought they didn't work after I turned on the F Keys under the Keyboard & Mouse window. So, I thought I would post this to help anyone else that did this.
They now work, yea!!!!
Sometimes we solve our own problems quite well
I believe that Leopard does reset to the default F keys.

HT3805 How do I restore Vault created under Snow leopard to new IMac with Maverick 10.9.2

Purchased a new IMac with OS 10.9.2
trying to restore an Aperture Vault (created by snow leopard) I get error message that Vault could not be restored because it was created by older OS.
Is there a fix for this or do I kiss my 4k pics goodbye - I hope this isn't the case.

Purchased a new IMac with OS 10.9.2
trying to restore an Aperture Vault (created by snow leopard) I get error message that Vault could not be restored because it was created by older OS.
What exactly is the error message? The operating system version should not matter, when restoring from a vault. What however will matter, are the version of Aperture and the file system of the disk with the vault. Is your vault on an external drive? If yes, how is the drive formatted? If the vault is not on a drive formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled), move it to a disk with the correct formatting and try again.
And what version of Aperture created your vault? With SnowLeopard you probably used an older Aperture version. Then your vault needs to be upgraded to a newer Aperture version, before you can restore from it. Do you still have a version of Aperture installed, that is the same version as your vault? Was it an Aperture 3 version?
If your vault is an Aperture 3 vault, try to open it as an Aperture library instead of restoring it.
- a quick and dirty emergency measure: Try to open your vault directly on the drive where it is now without restoring it. Make a backup copy of your vault, before you try it.
Change the filename extension of your vault to ".aplibrary", this will turn the vault into an Aperture library and try to open it directly in Aperture by double clicking it.
Aperture will now try to open the vault as the current Aperture library and upgrade it.
“Aperture Vault” was created by an older version of Aperture, and cannot be restored by this version.

Ethernet DHCP not working on new iMac

I have a new 24" iMac and cannot get it to work over Ethernet with DHCP and NAT provided by an Airport Extreme (b/g model). The Aiport router is used to connect to Verizon DSL through a Verizon-supplied Westell ADSL modem. The Airport is configured for PPPoE and automatically provides DHCP and NAT in that configuration. I have a Netgear 5 port switch connected to the Ethernet port on the Airport router and a Xerox printer and the new iMac connected to the switch so that all computers on the network can share the printer.
I have several other computers (Macs and a PC) that all work fine with WiFi through the Airport router. The new iMac also works pretty well with its supplied Airport card, although the connection is sometimes lost when the Mac goes to sleep. The iMac is close to the router, which is why I would prefer to use Ethernet and take advantage of higher speed and a more reliable connection for printing large files.
I have tried everything I can think of to get Ethernet to work, including creating different Network configs, one just-Ethernet, one just-Wifi. Typically when I enable Ethernet, the iMac does not get an IP address from DHCP but assigns itself one. Even if I try to manually set a valid IP for my network, I cannot ping any other device including the Airport router.
I have tested the cable/switch/router combination by plugging a PowerBook in place of the iMac, and Ethernet works flawlessly for the laptop. I used to have an older Linksys router and had the Airport configured as a bridge, and that didn't work either, which led me to buy the Netgear switch and configure the Airport as my primary router. I was thinking perhaps there was a hardware issue with the newer Gig Ethernet controller on the iMac and the very old Linksys router/switch. But no dice.
So my only conclusion is that either the Ethernet controller on the Mac is kaput or that there is some config magic that I don't understand.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rob

Sorry, I've been offline for the holidays. I tried what you suggested, configed the Powerbook and iMac for manual IP (192.168.1.220 and .230 with subnet 255.255.255.0) and connected them directly and could not ping from either machine. Here is the output requested:

Microsoft WORD & Excel not working on new iMac

I had the MS suite of WORD, Excel and PowerPoint installed on my new iMac OS 10.8.3 by a legitimate programmer w/a totally legal license. Neither WORD nor Excel will load up. I get a variety of error messages (i.e. invalid file name, cannot open global template). Power Point works fine.!!!!
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing with no luck.
Any thoughts?

Unless you used this method to uninstall you may not have correctly uninstalled Office. Do it again using the manufacturers method, Then reinstall.

Rosetta not working on new iMac?

I have a brand-new 20" 2.4gHz iMac (aluminum). I used Migration Assistant to get my documents and settings over but I'm doing clean installs of programs and doing Universal binaries whenever possible. So now I'm at Quicken...and my Quicken 2005 would not boot up on the new iMac. OK, I thought, maybe I need to upgrade to Quicken 2007. I did that. Now the installer for that will not run either, nor will Quicken 2007 out of the disk image the installer's also on. I think these are the first two PowerPC apps I've tried to run on this so far.
I read that there's been some trouble with Rosetta apps after the install of Quicktime 7.2 so I followed the instructions in the support doc for that. But it will not let me run the Combo 10.4.10 Intel update on my machine either (says it cannot be run). The line to input into Terminal as described in that doc gives me an error.
I can't go without Quicken -- I need to have it running on my new machine. Any suggestions? :'( I'm dyin' here.

Well, yes, I know that Quicken is not a Universal binary (that is unfortunate). But by all accounts and articles the application should run under Rosetta, yes? (Even says so in that Macworld article.)
That's the actual problem I'm having -- The installer will not run. Nor will the program itself. I don't have any other PowerPC apps on the machine to try them out and check if others are working but I'd assume they're not.

My Apple Help Centre menu is not working on new iMac

I have a new 2012 imac 27" and the Help Centre look up menu is not working in my main (admin) account. It is working in my second standard account that I have set up solely for testing the system when things are not working.
If I click on some of the items in the menu I get a message saying "The selected topic is currently unavailable. The topic you were trying to view could not be found." However, some of the help items do show up!
My internet is working fine so it is not because I don't have a connection. As it is working in the other account it seems that there must be some file path anomally with my main account.
Does anybody know of a fix before I give Apple a call?
thanks

You may be able to solve the problem by deleting the Help cache.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpd
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the selected folder to the Trash. Log out, log back in, and test. Help pages will be slow to load at first.
If that doesn't work, the problem may be caused by network conditions. It may go away by itself, though I can't say how long you should wait.
A persistent failure to load help data has been reported as an issue with certain ISP's, such as the Exede satellite network. Test on a different network, if possible. I've also seen at least one report that Photo Stream in iCloud can mysteriously interfere with Help. I'm not sure whether that's true, but try disabling Photo Stream, if applicable.*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
