Logic pro 8 onto a new mac book pro

I have just bought a new Mac book pro and am in the process of putting Logic pro onto it. I have the original Logic Pro 8 with the logic 9 upgrade. The macbook pro wont let me load logic 8 as it is saying that "powerPc applications are no longer supported" Thats kinda irritating. Does anybody have any ideas on how I can get this loaded so I can then load my 9 upgrade?
Thanks
Ben

Just so there's no confusion... Logic became Intel compatible at version 7.2. Any version of Logic 8 is Intel compatible, that is, Logic 8 can run on the newer operating systems... however, part of the Install routines are PPC and need the "Rosetta" PPC emulation code... as of OSX Lion there is no support for Rosetta so Logic 8 will not install by traditional means. There are workarounds posted on the Web, if you can get Logic 8 on the new machine chances are it will run. Now... depending on the version of Logic 9 you have, (9.0, 9.01, 9.02) all used the same type of PPC compatible install you you might have to jump through hoops twice.
Might be easiest to fork over $199 and purchase the app store version.
Doesn't seem right to me either but the way of Mac is to drain your financial resources as much as possible.

    How did you install Logic onto your new Mac Book?
    From the App store or from the DVD boxed set?
    If it was downloaded from the App store then it should already be v9.1.8... and if it isn't you need to call Apple to help you sort this out.
    If it was originally from the DVD boxed set then you must update using software updates....
    If software updates cannot find Logic to update it then you either have...
    Renamed the Logic Pro app in which case rename it back to Logic Pro
    or
    The Logic Pro App is not in the applications folder which is where it needs to be to be updated... so move it back there.

    I have a brand new mac book pro, I want to plug my iPhone into it & transfer everything from it onto the mac book, pics,music etc. I'm worried if I plug my phone into the Computer I will loose everything. How can I make sure this doesn't happen?

    When you plug your iPhone to Mac,click the Summary button and select “Manually manage music and videos".Then iTunes would never delete your original music.
    The most easy way to solve your problems is to move your music to your new Mac.Please refer to this article from Apple.com

  • Logic Studio on my new Mac Book Pro

    I had one install of my Logic Studio on my imac and one on my old Mac Book. I bought a new Mac Book Pro and gave my old one to to my daughter. I reinstall all my iMac content to my new Mac Book via Time Machine synch. When i start Logic it asked me the key and when i put the key it declined, saying key is not right while i have original printed key which i have tried may time on this Mac book but it does not recognized this key. This iis the same key i install the first time. How should i make my Logic works on my new Mac Book. I am willing to erase from my old Mac Book if i know for sure it will work on the new one.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't think your problem is with the other installs.  I have logic pro installed in 4 places.  It will however only let me run one instance at a time because it checks over the network.
    I think some how you are entering the wrong key.  Or perhaps your key is for a much earlier version of logic?   You might want to contact apple if you are sure your key is correct and valid.

    Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
    Brian

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • Iphone vs new mac book pro

    I just recieved a new mac book pro for graduation. Prior to that i have been using my sisters mac book pro, i used it to put all my music onto my iphone. But now that i have my own laptop with music on it i want the new muisc on my laptop on my iphone. But it wont let me.. Is there any way to fix this?!

    Just for comparisons sake. A buddy of mine just bought a mac book (not pro) the generation just before the current models and it runs the same performance or a bit higher performance than my dual 2.0 G5 PPC. Until the track count get up there you can run the logic sessions of the internal.
    So it will seem like you G4 is standing still compared to the new intel laptops.
    The macbook for the money is a kickin machine.
    There apple videos for Logic show a guy working on a remix he's running the whole session (a pretty big one) from his mac book pro's internal drive.
