Lost iLife after migrating to 10.5

I am new to using a mac and bought myself a new iMac last week. It came with iLife bundled but with 10.4 as os but with possibility for free upgrade to 10.5. When Leopard came in the mail I immediately upgrated but I was treated with blue screens and inability to log in. After recovering from my idea that everything always works on an Apple I installed Leopard again but now a full new install. As I had the machine brand new I though there were no files to lose anyway. After that everything worked fine and dandy. I could however not find iLife anymore.
After calling with support I was told I could not use the old system disk whith included the bundled software with iLife unless i Downgraded again to 10.4 and than installed 10.5 with an archive install option. After going to the installation trouble in the first place I don't like this solution and it will also cost me space on my disk I will never use again. Has anyone had the same problem and maybe found a solution on how to get iLife back without buying a new copy?

And this has what to do with Leopard Server?

  • "Extended Photo Info" lost/invisible after migration to new Mac with 10.6.2

    I just migrated my iPhoto library to my new Mac running OSX 10.6.2 from a Mac running OSX 10.3 I did this by copying the "Pictures/iPhoto Library" folder to an external drive. Today I tried to use "Show Extended Photo Info", and information appears to be lost? There is no Camera or Exposure information. I re-imported a photo from an old e-mail, and it does have the information! Do the Event/Location/Face features cause this to be deleted from my photos? I used these feature a lot before noticing anything was wrong.
    Any ideas? Can I somehow check to see if the JPEG file still has the information? It is not too late to re-do the library import. I cannot live without the exposure information, as I like to play with my camera settings.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. After copying the library to the external HD did you open it directly with iPhoto? When iPhoto 09 converted that library to the latest version it would not have done anything to lose the EXIF data which is stored in the library's database files.
    You didn't import that library into a new library did you? If you didn't then try rebuilding the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I lost iLife after reinstalling Mountain Lion

    I bought my iMac in April last year, it is the 21.5 inch mid/late 2011 iMac (if I'm not wrong), the thing is I used to install lots of things in here until I decided it was worth to erase all the unimportant content, but to make myselfe sure I decided to back up in an external hard drive everything I thought it was important and then I proceded to reboot the system and enter in restore mode while startup (using cmd + r, as you may know).. Once in there I went to disk utilities and erased my HDD and after that I proceeded to reinstall Mountain Lion. Everything went OK, I entered my Apple ID and Password and the installation went through without any further problems. When I started to reconfigure everything I noticed iPhoto was missing, so I inmediately checked if iMovie and GarageBand were there, but they were not. So I logged in the Mac AppStore but there said I should bought them (which actually makes sense, because I got iLife with my iMac) but I honestly don't know what to do. I used to use a lot these softwares, and it would be nice to have them back.. Do you have any idea of what should I do?
    I also would like to add that my iMac came with OS X Lion, I bought Mountain Lion personally.. if that has something to do with..
    Thanks for your attention,
    PD: Please bear in mind that I'm from Argentina, any mistake you can found wasn't intencionally, sorry if you happen to find many

    Thank you very much for your help and your time, this problem was in deed very simple to solve, I tried to click the buy app button just to see what happens and it turned out that was the right thing to do.
    If any one has this problem here is a screenshot that will more or less tell you what you got to do:

  • Lost iLife after OS X Mavericks Clean Install

    Hi, I just did an OS X mavericks clean install and lost the iLife suite (iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand). I downloaded the iPhoto app and Apple charged me $15 for an app I already pay.  What I can do in this situation? How can I get my money and apps back?
    Thanks,
    iRCM

    How did you obtain the original apps that you had installed? If you have the old iLife install disk, just use that to reinstall them. If you purchased them at the app store, they should show in your purchases so you can download them again.  If they were installed in your Mac and were older versions and you did not make a backup, then they're gone. When a new version is introduced, you have to purchase it again - that is how the app store works now: Apple may make an update available at no charge, but a new version needs to be purchased (you can use your older version until it is no longer compatible with the OS you are running).

    If you are syncing using iCloud, try going to System Preferences/iCloud (computers) and checking Safari. If it is checked, try deselecting it, wait 10-15 seconds, and then check it again.

  • File associations after migration

    Hi
    I'm using ADMT 3.2 to migrate Windows 8 machines to a new domain within the same forest and I know that it's not 100% supported but I wonder if anyone
    got the same problem as me.
    The Migration finish successful without any problems but when the user logs on the file associations are lost and even after choosing program the
    question question turns up again the next time the user tries to start the program by clicking on a jpg file or an xls file
    And yes the user profiles are migrated.
    Any ideas?
    Will there be a ADMT 3.X that supports Windows 8 and Windows 2012?
    Thanks
    Magnus

    Hi, Sorry for resurrecting an old post, but I wondered if you ever found a way round this - We are performing an ADMT 3.2 (updated month or so ago to allow support for 2012 and win 8) and running into similar issues....
    The ADMT migration runs perfectly, without issues, but upon completion when a user logs into their PC all their file associations are broken - reg keys under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts all seem intact, but until
    I go in and delete the UserChoices reg key I cannot set these file associations again!
    Looking at a PC before and after migration, there doesn't seem to be any changes (other than the new user is added to the permissions obviously)!
    Interestingly, after deleting user choices, I am still not prompted to set "default program" when I double click an affected file type...I have to right click and "Open With" before I see the checkbox to set the default!
    Very strange behaviour and must be something to do with the security translation of the registry as part of ADMT if you ask me?
    I would be interested to hear anyone's view's on this issue as you and I (so far) seem to be the only ones affected!
    Thanks

  • Problem with method action after migrating from TP2 to TP4

    Hi,
    we are migrating our application (ADF Faces, ADF BC) from TP2 to TP4. We have encountered several problems.
    The biggest that we could not solve is as following:
    In our View Object's RowImpl.java classes we have method void refreshLOVAccessorQueries(). In a number of View Objects that method is placed in client interface. In pageDefs of jspx pages that are bound to that View Objects we have method action like
    <methodAction IterBinding="TeeCronTtVOIterator"
    id="refreshLOVAccessorQueriesCron"
    InstanceName="bindings.TeeCronTtVOIterator.currentRow"
    DataControl="TradingAppModuleDataControl"
    RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="invokeMethod"
    MethodName="refreshLOVAccessorQueries"
    IsViewObjectMethod="false" IsLocalObjectReference="true"/>
    and invoke action like
    <invokeAction id="refreshCronLOVs" Binds="refreshLOVAccessorQueriesCron"
    Refresh="prepareModel"
    RefreshCondition="#{!requestContext.postback and empty bindings.exceptionList}"/>
    When we are accessing such a jspx page the application rases error:
    "Method bindings.TeeCronTtVOIterator.currentRow.refreshLOVAccessorQueries() not supported "
    In TP2 everything worked fine. Now in TP4 for some VO that refresh is OK and for others just mentioned error is thrown. Confusing is that all View Objects and their java classes are created in the same manner and they are almost identical, and this counts for pageDefs too.
    What could be the reason of all this?
    Second thing is that in adfc-config.xml in backing bean defs we have managed-property like:
    <managed-bean>
    <managed-bean-name>regionBacking</managed-bean-name>
    <managed-bean-class>app.view.backing.RegionBacking</managed-bean-class>
    <managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
    <managed-property>
    <property-name>bindings</property-name>
    <value>#{bindings}</value>
    </managed-property>
    </managed-bean>
    JDeveloper warn us about that with: ' EL token bindings" is unknown '. Why is that? It looks that everything connected with that managed property works fine.
    Another problem is not severe but unpleasant
    After migration to TP4 nothing (not one element) is visible (shown) in the design view.
    The structure of the pages is similar as in the StoreFrontDemo and it shows just fine in TP2.
    Thanks!!!

    Thanks Frank,
    but working from beginning is to much work so, we have solved it in another way.
    Regard to first problem we discovered that it is happening only when there is no Rows in iterator for which we are invoking action. In invoke action we have changed refresh property to default value and the problem is solved.
    Second thing is warning that has no other effect so we will ignore it.
    About third problem, when we create new working copy of application in JDeveloper without system11.1..... directory, JDev works fine and all jspx pages are shown in design view. After some work, due to undiscovered reason design view is lost... What could cause this?

  • Using Time Machine AFTER Migrating

    I used Migration assistant to switch from a macbook to a macbook pro (successfully). However, now Time Machine failed to find the old Time Machine backup drive. I had hoped that I would be able to retain my backups after migrating. Is this not possible?

    Actually, Time Machine does not use an IP address in the name of the backupdb, but rather the MAC address, the hardware address hard-coded into each individual Mac.
    I just upgraded to a newer Mac last week, so looked into this. I thought it would be nice to keep all my backups back to my Leopard installation.
    While it is possible to "merge" the backups from the older Mac to the newer one, on reflection it seemed to me to be more hassle (and potential danger, if you inadvertently restore an older system-type file) than it's worth.
    Instead, I decided to keep the old backupdb around for a few weeks, just in case I remember that I've lost something; its files can still be accessed. If I don't realize I'm missing something within that time, I probably never will. So I will eventually just delete the old backupdb to free up space.
    It's important to remember that the primary purpose of Time Machine is to enable restoration of a failed hard drive or inadvertently deleted file. TM is not intended to be a permanent archive of everything on the drive; none of us has enough spare hard drive space for that. For those files I want to archive in virtual perpetuity, I archive them separately to a safe location or DVD/CD.
    Another option, if you want to retain that older backupdb, is to use SuperDuper! to create a disk image of it which you can store and access at will.
    Hope this helps.

  • What to do with old iPhoto library after migration to Photos

    After migration to Photos my hard drive is maxed out. I want to move the 15gigs old iPhoto library to an external drive to free some space as some have suggested. Others here have said you can just trash the old library. There must be a reason 10.10.3  was designed to retain the iPhoto library. Trash it--really? Another suggestion was to put my 15 gigs on a flash drive. So the question is: does Photos need to be able to see the iPhoto library as it would if on an external drive connected to my Time Machine?

    Thanks for your reply but I'm still confused as to how I lost over 10Gigs of HD space after the migration. I understand the conversion is supposed to create more space, not less.  When I look in the pictures folder in Finder, I see 2 LIbrarys, iPhoto and Photos, each of them approx 15 Gbs. according to the Get Info menu.  I guess what I don't understand is if the iPhotos Library is not needed and is moved to an external drive why that wouldn't free that amount of space.
    Also, if "optimization" is supposed to move "some" high res images to the cloud to make room on the HD, how is it that I find myself with only 1gb left on my HD? What is the criteria that triggers "optimization" and how much room can we expect it to shoot for? There seems to be a variety of answers on this subject, many of them sound like guesses. Apple's explanation is vague about how it works, so hopefully someone has the accurate, in depth scoop on this.

  • Where are the images stored after migration

    I'm totally lost after migrating my pictures from iPhotos.app to Photos.app...
    From an article from Apple, (see below) there is no duplication of the library even if it looks like (when you look at the GB). So i understand that there is a kind of link or alias for each picture. But i would like to know where the original ones are (imposible to know looking at the finder because both libraries show strangely a lot of GB.
    So I tried different options to understand. If I delete an event in the iPhoto library and definitely trash it, these pictures are still in Photos. And if I delete some pictures in Photos.app definitely (deleting definitely from File Menu > Show Recently Deleted) these pictures are still in iPhoto !!! So where are the real pictures ??? In which library? Somewhere else? Why the two libraries are showing all these Gb and it does'n't correspond to the capacity storage of my hard disk...
    I really don't understand how it works... Any help would be very appreciated.
    Article from Apple :
    Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries
    Learn how Photos stores images when you migrate your iPhoto or Aperture library and saves disk space by sharing images.
    When you migrate a photo library from iPhoto or Aperture, the Photos app creates a new library structure but doesn't duplicate your images. Instead, Photos saves disk space by creating links to the original and preview versions of your images.When Finder reports the file size of your Photos library, it includes all your originals and previews. It may look like your remaining iPhoto or Aperture library is taking up twice the space on your hard drive, but it isn't—your images exist only in one location, even though you may have more than one photo library.After you migrate your iPhoto or Aperture library to Photos, you might feel tempted to delete your original iPhoto or Aperture library. Because the migrated library takes little additional space, you don't need to delete the original library.

    They're in both libraries; a hard link to a file is indistinguishable from the original file, and either one can be deleted without affecting the other.

  • Can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013

    can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013, in other words unable to access mails through outlook or from other Applications services.
    needed RCA ... plz help..

    Hi,
    From your description, you can send and receive messages only when you use OWA after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
    In your case, I recommend you create a new test mailbox in your Exchange 2013 and check if you can send and receive messages on Outlook. If yes, it is recommended to create a new profile to solve this issue.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.
