Lost applications due to "Erase and Install" option in Leopard Installation

I bought a new Macbook this morning at my local Apple Store, and they gave me a Macbook running Tiger as well as a Leopard Installation Disk. I wanted my Macbook to be just like new, so I called Apple Support and they told me to do an "Erase and Install." After I followed their directions and was finally running Leopard, I noticed that I lost programs: Garageband, iPhoto, and iMovie to name a few.
How can I get these applications back?
And it is absolutely ridiculous if I have to buy iLife '08 because I had these programs already on my computer with Mac OSX Tiger before Apple told me to "Erase and Install."
p.s. I received 2 other disks that seem to be of no help...2 Tiger Installation disks.

Ok if you purchased a new macbook reload the original os x tiger restore cd's you have to hold the c key at startup to boot from it format and reinstall mac os x tiger then once os x tiger is installed update to the latest version of tiger first then connect a external hard drive and use carbon copy cloner to backup your hard drive the reason for this is when you upgrade from tiger to leopard the os has a high tendency to remove the idvd and garageband content so none of your ilife apps will function after the upgrade this is why you need the external with it the first time you install mac os x leopard it will ask do you want to transfer your settings from another partition on this mac select this option and select the external and everything will be fine

  • No Erase and Install Option given

    So I am trying to do a complete Erase and Install from the Leopard DVD, but it doesn't give me this option when I boot up. It simply start reinstalling and keeps all my old accounts....What could be the problem?

    Soon after you choose your language, the Menu bar shows up at the top of the monitor. Go to the Utility menu, select Disk Utility and format the drive you are trying to install to.
    With no system to upgrade, the installer will default to a full installation.
    Have you really backed up your Music, Pictures, Emails, and Documents?

  • No "erase and install" option only "customize"

    I want to perform an "erase and install" but it won't give me the option to.
    It only says "Customize"
    Where did it go?

    i think u may be right. which may also be why it doesn't allow me to log in. (just freezes whenever i put the RIGHT name/password in, if it's the wrong one it only allows me to try again)
    Although, the iBook currently had 10.3.9.
    there's also no "erase and install" option on my iMac that I'm trying to re-install. MAYBE cuz Tiger's already installed on there?? I'm using the disc that it came with.

  • Can Mac OS X Snow Leopard Retail DVD be used to erase and install on a Leopard 10.5.8?

    Can that retail DVD be used to erase and install on a Leopard 10.5.8?
    Or can you only do that with the discs that came with the computer?

    One pitfall is if you don't have the minimum 1 GB of RAM, Snow Leopard will be very slow to work. Also make sure your hard drive after the installation is less than an arbitrary 85% full.  This amount has been found to be the break even point where all versions of Mac OS X can get messed up. Otherwise, check my FAQ* for other possible compatibility concerns:

  • Installing on G4 - no erase and install option

    Hi all - really hoping someone can help me with this one.
    I'm trying to install Leopard on my iBook G4. My current OS is 10.3.9. I've put in the Leopard CD and rebooted pressing C - I get past the screen where I can choose my language preference, but then I get an error message telling me Leopard can't install from 10.3.9 - it needs 10.4. I've been advised it will work if I do an erase and install, which I'm fine with - it's all backed up. BUT I cannot get to the screen where that becomes an option. The error message seems to be the end of the line - there are no further buttons to press to move on from that.
    Has anyone else encountered this or have any bright ideas as to what I need to do next? From reading some of the posts here, other people seem to have installed Leopard onto slightly older macs so I am really hoping it's not impossible.
    BTW I have 1.25GB of RAM and a 1.2Ghz processor, so that should all be fine.
    Any help much appreciated! Thanks.

    Hi clarrie123;
    From the sounds of that error it sound like you are attempting to use an upgrade DVD rather then the generic install DVD for Leopard.
    The upgrade DVD were issued with Mac that had Tiger installed after Leopard was released and are only usable on those Macs.
    It sounds like you are going to have to purchase the generic DVDs to install Leopard on your Mac.

  • How can I reformat my hard drive if erase and partition don't work in disk utility and I get an error when I try to erase and install from the Leopard install disk?  I have had several kernel panics, but the volume shows up in startup disk.

    I have had several kernel panics on my iBook G4; the panic message shows up just after the desktop appears. Although the startup volume shows up in Startup Disk, the installation disk reports an error when I attempt an erase and install. Disk utility is unable either to erase or partition the hard drive. The hard drive shows up in disk utility, but the startup volume doesn’t  HELP!!!

    Do you have the original system discs that came with the iBook when it was new?
    Which exact iBook model is it?
    You can choose from this list:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/index-ibook.html
    Erasing the disc and installing Mac OS X 10.5 will result in loss of the other applications (such as the iLife applications) which came pre-installed on the iBook.

  • MBP Early 2008 erase and install (bundled) additional iLife apps option

    ok, can't figure this out. I have a MBP that I am going to reinstall everything using the factory 2 dvd set. I want to erase and install and install the original factory apps (meaning iLife). There is the option, when you boot up, to "install mac os X and additional apps." When you go through the process, you have to modify the install to erase and install, since there is a newer version of mac os x already on it. Then you proceed, when you goto customize (because I want to make sure the ilife extra stuff is checkmarked, it says there is a newer version already and thus won't checkmark those iLife apps as part of the install. Since I have chosen the erase and install option, shouldn't it know that and let those options be installed?

    First, you must erase the drive. Do this:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Set the number of partitions from the drop down menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

  • Leopard OS 10.5 - pre-loaded vs. Erase and Install

    Just received a new iMac I ordered from from Apple Online yesterday. I was told it would come pre-loaded with the new Leopard OS but it didn't. The installed OS was 10.4.01. Apple has now agreed to either send me the Leopard OS or to take back the iMac and later on send me another one with Leopard pre-loaded. I'm wondering if this is really necessary as the Leopard OS Erase and Install option and/or a Secure Erase would appear to give me essentially the same result. Keep in mind my background is with Windows OS where I would always do a low level format of the hard drive and then do a clean install of a newer version of Windows OS. I would appreciate any suggestions about what I should do.

    Malcom:
    No, not initially. I saw the SCSI warning, but I must have missed that- I did the firware revision yesterday, after the fact- but I pulled the Jive drive box first and haven't had time to reassemble. I'll reinstall it tomorrow. Then I'll work on the SCSI card Adaptec 39160- (My Medea external Raid is a no show period.)
    Thanks for being there!

  • SL Erase and Install

    I understand that SL upgrade (30$) will require a version of leopard installed, however, I would like to know if it can do an erase and install over a version of snow leopard? So if I ever wanted to erase and install again I wouldn't have to erase and install with leopard and then with the SL again.

    You don't even have to have ever owned Leopard, much less to have it installed on your computer, to do an erase and install (over Tiger, Leopard, or Snow Leopard) with the $29 Snow Leopard. Believe me, and don't waste your time with the rest of the posts. Really!
    Remaining posters: I'm just ribbing you.

  • HD not an option to erase and install on

    I have been working through a problem with my 1.5 year old Powerbook over the past few weeks. I was first told I had to archive and install but when I tried that an error message told me that the disk was too damaged. I got my hands on a copy of the disk warrior boot disk and was able to retrieve all the files I wanted to save, but the program was unable to rebuild the disk.
    Now I am prepared to erase and install, but when it comes time to select a volume to install to, nothing shows up. (this is the third step of the install process, before I actually choose erase and install vs. archive/install). does erasing through disk utility make it possible to install OSX again without taking up all my space? are there any other options to look into before taking my computer to a store or something and getting the hard drive replaced?

    Can you start/boot the computer from your hard drive boot volume?
    If so, after the startup process is complete, go to Application > Utilities > Disk Utility.
    Launch Disk Utility and select the hard drive at the very top of the drives and volumes window.
    Under the First Aid tab, what does the S.M.A.R.T. status indicate at the bottom of the window?
    If anything other than Verified, your hard drive is failing or has failed and needs to be replaced.
    If the S.M.A.R.T. status for the hard drive is shown as Verified, quit Disk Utility and boot the compute from your Tiger install disc.
    Select your language and at the Installer screen/prompt, navigate to Disk Utility via the Installer menu bar.
    If you are unable to boot the computer from your hard drive boot volume, select the hard drive at the very top of the drives and volumes window and under the First Aid tab, check the S.M.A.R.T. status. If shown as Verified, you need to erase the hard drive using Disk Utility. Be sure HFS+ (or extended) is selected as the format with Journaling enabled.
    When completed, quit Disk Utility and the focus will return to the Installer.
    Try performing an Erase & Install again.

  • Leopard 10.5.7 refuses to launch applications after "erase and install"

    I have an older iMac G5 (1.6Mhz PPC, 2 Gb RAM) born with Panther OS. I wanted to update some applications so I could have a secure browser and other apps. I upgraded the RAM to 2 Gb as a first step. The additional RAM really perked up the old iMac so the next step was to update the OS to 10.5.6 using a DVD that was printed in Jan '09 and sold as part of a bundle pack with the new iLife 09 and iWork 09.
    I thought I could get away with an overwrite installation and I knew there were risks in doing that. The result was a really bugey computer with frequent terminal views, kernel panics and even hard shut downs. Apple issued the 10.5.7 update and that helped stabilize the system somewhat.
    I still had problems with instablility of the OS and with Safari 3.2.3, Firefox 3 and other applications. I decided to reinstall Leopard using the archive and install procedure. The 2nd install stabilized the OS but I still had problems with browsers and Open Office refusing to launch.
    I did lots of troubleshooting using Onyx, MemTest OSX, repair permissions in the Disk Utility, etc. I created a new user account and the problems persisted. I decided to try a third install of the OS using the Erase and Install procedure.
    The system now has Safari 4.0.1 but after a few page views Safari crashed and now it crashes as soon as you launch it. A freshly downloaded Camino browser does the same thing. iTunes, System Profiler and a fresh download of Onyx also refuse to launch. All of them crash while launching.
    I can launch an ancient version of IE and Firefox 3 from the desktop.
    After the last OS X install, I noticed the system did not accept the first attempts at downloading the Leopard updates and the Safari update. A second attempt was successful for both. I am reluctanct to proceed with installing anymore applications until I can fix what I believe is a problem with the OS. The OS worked well after the archive and install procedure and I am thinking it should be able to work at least as well after the erase and install.
    I live in a rural area and the nearest Apple "genius" counter is about a 5 hour round trip. Is there anyone out there that has encountered this problem?

    The Internet Explorer came with the iMac and I never used it. I had it on a disk so I put it on the desktop to get a download of Camino after Safari failed. It's so old that most websites can't render for it unless they have some html default page.
    Here is what the Crash Reporter log had. The iTunes was on the OS X install disk. The Camino browser was downloaded from Caminobrowser.org.

  • Only available installation option may be Erase and Install

    Trying to Upgrade Tiger.
    The only option I get is "erase and install"
    I've been trying to do this suggestion from Apple:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1471?viewlocale=en_US
    Problem is I don't get the option to repair the destination drive when using the Leopard install Disk Utility. Only verify.
    Note--I've done a repair on my Tiger Startup hard drive and then reboot, but it still doesn't work.
    Any help.....?

    Hmm dont know man? Just checked his post at work.
    It was bought at the Apple Store like two days ago with the hologram type box. Have no idea if that helped.
    Are certain disks bad or something?

    I hate to be nitpicky, but I'm fairly certain erase and install is always available as an option. Erase and Install may become the only option after a "bad install" but it's always available under options as far as I know.
    You are absolutely correct. After the language screen there is an Option button on the lower left.
    If you select it you will see the default is "upgrade" and the A&I and E&I are there, as well. It's a matter of attention to details. Leave nothing to chance.
    If the install offers only erase and install, don't believe it. Find out why and fix it. It's only a problem to be solved.

  • Cant erase and install cleanly. some type of hijack itseems.

    m trying to erase and install cleanly. i know the procedure, done it many times due to the fact some very malicious and tech savvy individual has a beef with me for some reason. the attacks are worse and worse. its debilitating actually. not a game anymore. i was able to save a piece of all messages log during install. much different than previous install logs. the system works although i have very limited authority. and oddities re: preference panes,( its shows it as locked yet i ca change security setting even in std user account. only some terminal commands are operable even under sudo. (error message"command not found") e.g.: env, open, history, rm, ls -A, etc..... no function.

    log disappeared soon after

    thanx. i took your advice, and though the passwords were different the account with apple and mobile me and email and such were the same. so i started with a new hd and took it to apple and they installed os x and all the updates THEN i made a completely new id ,address, passwords and thought how simply brilliant that was. unfortunately i need a little more advice if you could be so kind.
    so i got this person messing with me. i know this because he/she is taunting me with emails sent from "me" with subject "you looked at me today" and "i am going to bad today" and other personal messages one could only get from reading my mail.
    but i dont want to pester you with trivial matters. i have been researching what is happening and i have a ypbind that i cant seem to unbind. at least not as admin using the GUI in directory utility. i can unlock the active directory and change some of the options but the ones that matter remain grey. and the ones i do change return to their original value by the next time i open it. the directory server help apple provides is pretty thorough but the procedures just arent jiving with the machine. is there a way to unbind or delete these automatic connections for good with the command line. i disabled the root user immediately following the fresh install so that is still intact but im afraid to open it with the password. perhaps with the sudo kill?

  • Failed Erase and Install of OS X Tiger on a 15" MacBook Pro (older model)

    Hello,
    I just recently attempted to erase and install Tiger on my MacBook Pro using the two installation CDs that came with my computer when I originally purchased it (August 2006). The error I am having trouble with is that about three quarters of the way through the installation using disc 2, the installation stops and says that it was unsuccesful due to errors that occured in the installation process. The installer suggest that I attempt the installation again and asks for disc 2, at which point the process starts again and I recieve the exact same error message.
    I tried to solve the problem myself by looking at the support pages, but nothing specifically addressed my problem. The support site said that sometimes a lack of RAM can be to blame but clearly my computer's 2 GB is more than the reccomended 512 MB or 256 MB or whatever it said it was.
    I suppose the culprit is either the install disc or my hard drive. All I really need is to know how to get out of the installing process and try and install off of a different OS X Tiger DVD disc that I have in addition to the two CDs that came with the computer. This obviously will tell me if my computer or the disc is at fault. I hope it's the disc.
    Thank you very much for your help,
    -Travis

    I suspect that there may errors in the directory that is causing your difficulties. I suggest that you start over.
    Formatting, Partitioning Zeroing a Hard Disk Drive
    Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
    Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
    Select language
    Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
    Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
    Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
    (Note: 1 partition is normally better for an internal HDD. External HDDs usually have more than one)
    Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
    Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
    Select Erase tab
    Select the sub-volume under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
    Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format are correct.
    Select on Security Options button (Tiger) Options button (Panther & earlier).
    Select Zero all data. (This process will map out bad blocks on your HDD. However, it could take several hours. If you want a quicker method, don't go to Security Options and just click the Erase button.)
    Click OK.
    Click Erase button
    Quit Disk Utility.
    Open installer and begin installation process.
    (Note: There is some question about the usefulness of zeroing the HDD, but because of the difficulties you are having I think it is advisable)
    Please post back with further questions or comments.
    Good luck.
