Logic Studio won`t install on my new iMac

When I try to install Logic Studio on my new iMac, it just stops and say "Unknown failure detected" and the whole process is interrupted.
Does anyone know why?
I have installed Logic Studio with the same serialnumber on my MacBook Pro....

As the error states correctly: your computer is new, has an Intel CPU and Lion. You were using a version of Logic released in Feburary 2006 - 5 years old. That one can't run on a different CPU, new OS version, new hardware.
Time to get an upgrade:

Apples upgrades don't require to install older versions, clean install, just the old serial number/XSKey is needed for the installation.

Logic Studio Won't Install...

Apple says:

(I have a G4 AGB at 1.5GHz)
• 1GB of RAM (2GB or more highly recommended)
(I have 1GB)
• Display with 1024-by-768 resolution (1280-by-800 or higher recommended)

Available Disk Space
• 7GB to install all applications and required content
• Additional 39GB to install all optional content (large content packages can be installed on separate disk):

(Yup)
When I open the installer it tells me Alert:
My Video card is recommended to have more VRAM than I have.
My Video card is not recommended Open GL, doesn't do recommended Quartz.
I don't have recommended 2 GB of RAM
So when I press close on the alert, the installer quits.
I can't install any portion of Logic Studio (all I want to install is Logic 8 Pro).
These requirements aren't listed on the Logic Studio minimum requirements page or on the box or in the literature...So what gives? Can I or can't I run Logic 8 on my AGP Graphics G4 1.5 Ghz machine with 1 GB RAM?

Determined workaround whereby my computer's HD was used in Target Disc Mode to install, using computer on which all requirements were met.

Logic 7 won't install on my New Mac

Hi,
I have version 7.2 of Logic Pro which I've enjoyed using for many years.
I recently purchased a MacBook Air and want to continue using Logic Pro. However, when I tried to install it, I got the following message:
"you can't open the application LogicPro.mpkg because powerPc applications are no longer supported".
I take it that my new operating system (Mac OS X Lion 10.7) is too new for my version of Logic.
Without spending loads of money on a new version of Logic, is there a way around this problem?
I understand that I could purchase an upgrade, BUT - as I haven't been able to even install the version of Logic I do have, will an update be of any use?
Many thanks!
Alex

Logic Studio 9 Not installing on a new MacBook Pro

I just purchased a new MacBook Pro (Retina) running the Mountain Lion (10.8.3). When I try to run the installer i'm being told that I can't run the installer because Power PC Applications are no longer supported even through the discs indicate it is a Universal App.
Any idea what gives?? I was able to install it on another MacBook Pro I got last year.

Last time I checked Pacifist, it allows the user to extract the component parts out of a package.
Have they now updated it to allow for Pacifist to actually run the Installer Script, too (in such a way as to duplicate the action of the original Installer script)?
I think that you will find that it has done so for some time, but it certainly does now:

Logic pro won't install on macbook pro

I have Logic Studio 9.1.5 working on my iMac i7 under OS X 6.8. It is an upgrade of an upgrade, etc going back to V 5.5. I have the original Emagic key from Logic 5.5. My recollection is that I had to use this to install the Logic Studio upgrade to get Logic Pro 8, but that when I upgraded to V9, the key was not necessary.
I'll be visiting some remote sites for recording later this fall, and decided to move Logic to my MacBook Pro for the trip. It came with Lion. I installed the minimal setup from the Logic Studio package to get Logic Pro 9 on the MBP. It asked me for the serial number and to insert the EMagic key at the start of the install process. Once installed, it would not launch under Lion so I installed the 9.1.5 update. When I tried to launch after this update, Logic started up, but I was asked for the serial number and Emagic key again. This time, it reported that my key is not elegible for this upgrade. Makes no sense, given I had this running with no probllem on the iMac.
Have there been any other steps required to install under Lion? Is there anything else anyone can suggest to look into?

Samuel, this won't help you, but it may help some others.
I had CS2 installed on my good old TiBook 400MHz, and it worked fine there. When I got my new MBP C2D 2.33 yesterday, I followed the instructions for connecting via FireWire, and after 2 hours, everything copied over just fine. So far, everything works fine too, which is really amazing to me, including the Adobe CS2 applications.
I did make sure that my old TiBook was up-to-date, and ran Mac Janitor on it, and fixed permissions. That may have made the difference.
The only things which don't run now are the old OS9 applications, and Final Cut Express 3.0 (but there is a work-around using the esc key).
Hope this is encouraging to someone who is thinking about gettig a MBP C2D.

Could you try clearing your data and cache from the Google Play Store to see if that solves the problem?
On my system I go to: Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All->Google Play Store, then I click the Clear Data and Clear Cache buttons.

If you purchased it from the Mac App Store, sign in with the Apple ID used to buy it, click on the Purchases tab, and download it from there.
If you purchased it from the iTunes App Store, you can't without getting the Mac OS X version.

Iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY???

iphoto never came installed in my new iMac bought in Dec. (newest version) WHY??? How do I get it?

It did come pre-installed, have you looked in the Applicaitons folder and have you checked Trash to see if you (or some other user on your computer) threw it in there? If it's still not there, then restart in the Recovery Partition on your iMac (hold down the Option key when you hear the startup tone) and choose re-install OS X.
