Just installed Mac OS X 10.8 in Mac Mini and cant find iLife
Hi
I just bought a couple days ago a Mac Mini, I upgrade to Mac OS X 10.8.3 and now I want to use the Apps like Imovie o Garrage Band but I cant find it....I tried to download form the App Store, so I juct create a Apple ID for myself but I cant download the App for free (since this computer includes the iLife pack Apps)
Anyone can help me?
Thanks
- H.
I bought this from a guy in New Jersey-USA.
I bring to my country (Peru) and I realized that there was nothing about the Ilife apps (imovie, garageband, etc).
So I reinstall the OS (Mas OS 10.8.3 muntain lion) assuming that the apps would came pre installed..but nothing.
through Email, Apple latin support tried to help me and suggest me go to the folder ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore and delete the file "adoption.plist", move it to the desktop, open the AppStore and go to Purchased to download my Apps.... but I´m not able to find the "adoption.plist" file
Btw, the Mac Mini still is under warranty, but I dont know if I can make warranty claim in my country

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements on an older Mac...just bought Mac Mini and migrated all my files...but 4.0 Does not work....can I upgrade PSE 4.0 to PSE 13?
Yes, any version of PSE qualifies for upgrade pricing, but if you're in the US you might want to consider running the trial for now and waiting for the black friday specials, when the full version will be a lot less than the adobe upgrade price.

I just installed Mac OSX and now I can't open my documents...
After installing a new operating system, suggested because I have a new iphone, and i need to back it up, when i go to open a document, it says, "The document "-----" could not be opened."
Any suggestions?Exactly which new OS have you installed? Please update your profile, your question would make more sense then. If you have installed Snow Leopard, then you need to update further via the Combo updater

Just installed Mac OS X 10.8.5 on a Mac Pro 2010 platform.
The App Store shows there is an upgrade, so I click the download button.
After about 2 hrs the process stops and an Error (102) appears on the screen.
Any idea what goes wrong?

Thank you for the response.
The upgrade I'm interested is for OS X v.10.8.5...
...The App Store page shows 2 different upgrades:
Mountain Lion (10.8.5) Software Upgrade, and
Yosemite FREE upgrade
If the App Store is showing 10.8.5 as an update, what do you currently have installed? The final update to Mountain Lion was 10.8.5, and since the basic OS installation of Mountain Lion is no longer offered in the App Store, that would suggest you're currently at an earlier version of Mountain Lion - 10.8.x where x=less than 5. If that's the case, I'd suggest getting the 10.8.5 update. There is also a Supplemental Update for 10.8.5 and that may be what the App Store is offering. -
Just installed mac osx snow leopard upgade and connected my printer too, and realized I have lost sound! Can anyone help?
In case I misunderstood, did you mean that the 10.6.3 version of Snow Leopard was the upgrade? If so you need to update via 10.6.6 to 10.6.8. These updates can correct minor system upsets.
And ... did you also repair permissions both before and after you upgraded. You should do this when you progress via 10.6.6 to 10.6.8 too. -
I just installed Mac OSX (10.6.8) and can not get Quick time player to work. When I go to the Apple site to download a version that will work, it states that Quick Time Player automatically comes with OSX. What do I need to do to use Quick Time Player with 10.6.8
Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
(Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".) -
iPad is not recognized in iTunes. Just installed Mac OS X 10.6 and have a brand new iPad2. Tried all suggestions in the iPad manual without success.
Quit iTunes, restart your Mac and then restart the iPad and see if the iPad is recognized after that. If not, you can look through these articles.
iOS Device not Recognized in Mac OS X
If you are running Snow Leopard 10.6 ....
Device not recognized after a restart

Thanks for everyones help. It has made a huge difference. I hope this is the end of my issues with this new OS.Have you run Software Update several times to ensure you've picked up all available updates after upgrading to Snow Leopard?

my wife and i both have an itunes library installed on to our separate pc's, we are now de-commissioning the pc's and are moving over to a single mac mini, can we install both libraries on to the mac mini and run them as separate libraries?
graham218 wrote:

Generally YES.
It's possible to hold separate iTunes library's on a single machine.
Generate two new folders inside the Music folder of the Mini and name them differently; e.g. man and woman.
Copy your whole library into "man" and your wifes into "woman"
Go to sharing in the system settings of the Mini and share the Music folder in your network.
After copying the whole library's to the Mini you may point iTunes to the new location at startup by holding the option key (alt) at the keyboard.
iTunes will then ask you where the library is located.
Point it to the matching library on the Mini.
That's all.
Lupunus
PS ... If you both use only the Mini you have to setup a user account for each and just copy the whole library to the Music folder in particular.

The additional components needed to install mac os x cant be found
help, i did a clean reinstall using a USB, now its saying "the additional components needed to install mac os x cant be found" what do i do? i wiped my whole computer!...
Not on my late 2011 15" MBP. When I use just Cammond+r it takes me to the built in recovery HD.
Even with no HDD in the system Command+r gives me nothing, no options at all and certainly not the Internet Recovery system.
Command+Option+r gives me the Internet Recovery system with or without a HDD in the system and with or without a Recovery HD partition on the internal drive.
So it would seem it is different for different models and whether or not there is or isn't a recovery partition on the internal drive.
So for anyone reading this thread try both Command+r and Command+Option+r to boot the computer from the Apple Online Lion Internet Recovery system.
Thanks. -
Downgrade to Mavericks on New Pre installed Mac Mini
I currently have a Mac Mini that was pre installed with Yosemite, however I need to replace an existing Mac Mini and I have to downgrade it to Mavericks in order for it to work properly.
I have followed the guide on Mackworld UK and have made a Mavericks bootable drive using an old HD I had, then erased the Mac minis drive, but when I tell the disk utility to boot to the Mavericks drive i just get a White screen with a stop sign and the computer shuts down.
Im assuming this is because I can only do this is the device had Mavericks on it at a certain point? or am I just doing something wrong?Red3811 wrote:
So im assuming this is the same for a mac pro? if it had mavericks on it and upgraded to yosemite, downgrade is possible without Time Machine right?
Your assumption is correct. -

You are right, Adobe does not support CS5 because it is no longer sold.
Simply download the trial version of CS5 from this Adobe web site and input your serial number.

I have a new MAC MINI and I want to install a second monitor. I have one connected to the HDMI and it works. I can't get a signal to the other one. It is connected from the thunderbolt to its HDMI port. How can I make it work?
Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.
You have 90 days of free telephone support on a new device. You can call them at 1-800-MY-APPLE. Have your Mini's serial number handy
You can also make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
