New Ilife '09 will not Install on New 24" Imac but installed fine on IBookG

Can someone explain what is going on with this new Ilife '09 DVD? I recieved it today and found that after 2 attempts to upgrade on my brand new IMAC there was nothing ugraded. However, when I inserted the disk in my IBookG4 the software was downloaded and installed perfectly.
Curious note, when I actually looked at the "customized" install on the new IMac, it shows there is NO data( meaning 0MB) where when I put it into the IBook G4 it had MB after each application.
Is there something I don't know that is blocking this upgrade on my new IMAC? Is the DVD unable to read in my new IMac. HELP!!!

By super search with the spotlight, I discovered that the ILife '09 installed on the HD and the ILife'08 appswere sitting in my User name "house". I clicked on the each of the new Apps on the HD and each one of the '09 updates occurred. Needless to say I am up and running. Thank you for responding. Issue resolved.

  • ILife 11 will not install.

    iLife 11 will not install, it gets past the checking stage and actually starts to install and then it says it has failed. The disk works on my Macbook.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Peter,
    This is a few months late relative to your post, but I just dealt with this. The full discussion is here -  https://discussions.apple.com/message/18030492#18030492
    Here's the short version of the solution.
    I just got off the phone with Julie with Apple Support in Oregon. Here's the deal - Apple knew about this issue with the iLife 2001 installer "expiring" after March 23, 2012, so they put the workaround to release the block to installation in a software update which they issued March 17 this year.
    Julie said that the oldest OS for which this fix has been included is OS 10.6.8.
    She also said there are two ways to get this software fix - one of course is to hit the Software Updater under the Apple menu and download it that way - and she stressed that if you install your OS off an older DVD (for example, the system disks that came with your machine), you will need to run through Software Update several times, until you get the word that your software is fully up to date.
    The other way is to get on Apple's site and download DL1512 - which you can find here:
         http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1512
    "Apple Software Installer Update 1.0
    This update addresses an issue that may prevent certain Apple software from installing. This update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X 10.6.8."
    Having updated my OS, I retried installing iLife 2011, and voila - it installed.
    So thanks to Julie at Apple Support!
    Final note - The reason I had to reformat and reinstall my son's Macbook Pro is because he had installed Google Chrome and it tanked absolutely everything. The machine wouldn't even start up properly. Julie the Apple support lady said she has heard anecdotal reports about this.
    I hope this helps.

  • Blank cds/dvds not mounting, iLife '06 will not install

    After auto upgrades to Tiger v10.4.8 blank cds and dvds will not mount but are automatically ejected. I have a superdrive Sony DVD RW DW -U10A. It will recognize and read cds and dvds that have data. I also attempted to install iLife '06. The installer v 2.1.0 said it could not install. Somewhere I read that these problems are related to the upgrades from Jaguar. Any ideas--chattrod

    You posted in the wrong forum. This area is for "G5" iMacs. Your system info confirms you have a G4 iMac.
    You need to respost in the G4 iMac (Flat Panel) Forums where the knowledgeable users using the same model iMac as yourself hangout & will be able to help you.

  • Audio attachment will not open and play on Ipad4 but works fine on PC. Any suggestions?

    I have been sent an audio attachment in an email to a Hotmail account. It opens and plays fine on my PC but will not open on my Ipad. I get a pop up wanting to forward the attachment from my Comcast email account but neither will open and play it. Any suggestions?

    I kept looking and found this answer in an Ipad forum from IpadJunkie. "Try the OPlayerHD lite app...free. When pressing and holding the WMA attachment select open with OPlayer and it works fine."

  • Ilife 09 will not install on clean os 10.6.2

    I just installed a new HD in my 2006 intel i mac. I bought a family pac ilife 09, it installs fine on my other machines, but on the all new HD, the installation fails, with error message " installer encountered the problem that caused the installation to fail, contact the software manufacture"
    I wiped the HD drive clean twice , I have not migrated any of the previous HD data nor have I installed anything else other that the updates.
    Any ideas?
    p.s I tried the ilife on this machine first, it failed.

    Do other disks work in that machine? If not, it's probably got a dirty or damaged optical drive.

  • My iPad screen will not rotate in the mail program but works fine in safari and star walk apps, any ideas ?

    Has anyone had the same problem and does anyone have a suggested fix.

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it rotates when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • The new ACR 5.5 update will not install in Elements 7.0

    Hello All:
    This situation is now becoming ridiculous (well, for me that is).  I just tried to install the new ACR 5.5 update and it is "unable to install" into Elements 7.0.  I downloaded the update several times, unzipped the install file, but when trying to install, it just gives me a message that it is unable to install and to hit the "quit" button.
    I have a Vista 64 Bit system with 12 Gigs of RAM.  I've installed Elements 7.0 and Lightroom 2.5 on my system - all with no problems.  For some reason, I could never get Photoshop CS-4 to install at all and I've been through the mill trying to install Photoshop - but nothing worked and had to eventually give up.  Trying to get Adobe support for CS installation on my 64 Bit system has been ridiculous in this regard as each and every time I called, I was connected with some techrep located in India who all they did was "parrot" back what I told them - how frustrating.  But as I mentioned, Elements 7.0 and Lightroom installed just fine.
    The previous ACR 5.4 installed just fine into Elements, but now...ACR 5.5 will not install.  It tells me that I do NOT have CS-4 installed so it cannot install.  What's up with that? Has Adobe stopped supporting the latest ACR upgrades for Elements?  What gives?
    Does anybody just have just the newest ACR 5.5 plug-in by itself that they can send me so I can just put it in my plug-ins folder (or a place where I can download it)?  Adobe used to just have the plug-in that you could unzip and copy and paste and put it into your plug-in folders - but not anymore.  Now they make it an 82 Meg install program and thus some of my problems.
    Can anybody help here?  Why does the install program look for CS-4, yet overlook Elements 7.0 completely.  Helpppppppppp.
    Ben

    Hi Benherrmann,
    Sorry to listen that you havent been able to install the Camera Raw 5.5 plugin.
    But as far as my knowledge goes for PSE, PSE never lists Camera Raw plugin for updates in the Updater Preferences dialog i.e., if you will launch Help->Check for updates, a updater window will open. If you will check the preferences of that updater dialog, it will tell you that it never checks for updates for Camera Raw plugin unlike what happens in Mac. In Mac Camera Raw updates does get installs just by installing PSE(v6 of course as there is no PSE7 for Mac. Hopefully there will be a v8 for Mac by the end of october as seen in the last release).
    Dont know exact reason why Adobe had configured it in that way? why there is some difference between Win and Mac.
    So it prompts me that somehow you need to install Ps CS4 on the machine to get the patch installation through updater. Although this is not Ps forum, would you mind telling what error/issues are you facing while installing Ps CS4?

  • Officejet Pro 8600 N911g new firmware will not install.

    My printer: Officejet Pro 8600 N911g
    Current Firmware: CLP1CN1416AR
    My problem: Downloaded the latest firmware update (Version CLP1CN1322CR). When I go to install it, my printer shows as listed, but in the STATUS cloumn, it is listed as "Not applicable".
    I turned my printer on/off.
    I tried updating via network, and when it checks for an update, it states there are no updates avaiable.
    I tried updating via USB.
    I tried updating via the LCD panel on the printer, and when it checks for an update, it states there are no updates avaiable.
    Is there something wrong as to why this current firmware will not install?
    Thanks for any help.

    New Firmware (CLP1CN1416R) was installed automatically (Printer was set for "Auto Update").  Prior to new firmware install,  printer has performed flawlessly...no problems.  Immediately after printer updated it's firmware automatically I began to have multiple problems. 
    First, it kept asking me to perform an "Alignment" which I dutifully performed only to have message come back that 'Alignment Failed".  Printed sheet looked fine, and printer printed fine but now before any page will print the "Alignment Recommended" message comes up which I have to then override (Click 'Do Not Align' button at bottome of 'Alignment Recommended' message box.  This is getting really OLD!!  Simply unacceptable for a business class printer!! 
    Also, the printer randomly has started giving other messages such as "There is a problem with the printer or ink system" AND "Cartridges are Missing" ("when I've just recently put in new catridges and levels are OK!!) AND "Paper Jam" (when there is no jam!!) 
    None of these problems have occurred prior to the automatic firmware update.  I believe the reason HP hasn't posted the new firmware update to their Customer Service website is that they know there are bugs in it and don't want to compound the problems the new version has already created.  I seriously question why an automatic updating of firmware was done with equipment set to "Auto Update" and yet that same new firmware is not available to those who might have had their printers set for "Manual Update". 
    HP Customer Service - You need to issue a statement from the company as to what has happened with this firmware update.  If there are problems, take responsibility for it and make it right.  HP knows who it sent out auto updates to.  These printer owners should be immediately notified and the situation made right.  It is not real assuring to have your front line staff not know why the new firmware is not on the website.  I do not like the idea of having to pay for a Support Call when the problems with my out of warranty printer are directly tied to the Auto Updating of said printer with apparently defective firmware.
    I'd really appreciate a response back from someone in HP Customer Service.

  • Adobe CS4 will not install on new macbook pro [was: pro]

    Adobe CS4 will not install on new macbook pro. It is coming from my other macbook.

    Install normally means running setup from the orginal discs or the downloadable trial version. If you are copying from a backup or another computer, that won't work.
    Best advice is to download the CS4 trial, and have your serial number ready in order to convert the trial into a licensed version.
    Get the trial here. Follow the instructions carefully or the download link won't work.

  • HT201375 Has anyone found a solution to the "Mavericks will not install new fonts" Issue? Has apple even admitted it yet?

    Question is simple enough, Oh and by the way, my system is NOT what this forum page has decided to tell me that it is (no way evident to change it).

    Hi Arthur,
    Thanks for taking the time to reply.
    1. I am glad your Mavericks doesn't have the problem. I am sure there are a lot of Mavericks out there that don't have the problem, and yes, you are correct, I, along with ALL of the other people that are complaing of this problem all over the internet, including this support forum itself, are having problems with our own Mavericks installations.
    2. Agreed, Apple doesn't have a good track record of admitting to the bugs in its Operationg Systems, but don't worry, Microsoft is just as bad. Technology is about making money after all.
    3. Thanks for the instructions for updating my profile.
    4. I took the precaution of removing all of my data from this machine. and wiped its harddrive.
    I did a fresh install of Snow Leopard (the OS it came with), upgraded to Mountain Lion, and then upgraded to Mavericks before doing anything at all to the machine, and before installing anything on it.
    So with this Fresh, brand new install of Mavericks (I dont trust upgrades - for good reason) I installed Open Office, Adobe Creative Suit CS6, Google Chrome, Filezilla, Firefox and Thunderbird, and Microsoft Remote Desktop client.
    That's it.
    The font that will not install is any of the fonts from the Univers family.
    We have had this font in our office for the seven years I have worked there. It installs fine on all Macs from Tiger (10.4) to Mountain Lion (10.8) (I have just finished tesing this on a number of these machines).
    We have one other mavericks machine but this font was already installed on it when it was upgraded from Mountain Lion to Mavericks so it works.

    This is a lot more information than has been provided by almost all of the other posts on all the forums I have been reading about this problem, and most of the posts have a lot of people chiming in saying,
    "It works fine for me, so it must not be a problem".
    Not a lot of help has been forthcoming for the others in this same situation that I have been reading of, and most are resorting to Third Party Programs in an attempt to get fonts installed, all with varying degrees of success.
    I am not willing to use a third party program to do something the operationg system should be able to do itself.
    I have tried pasting the fonts themselves into all of the various fonts folders in the OS, to no avail.
    I will be very interested to hear what you make of the information I have supplied.
    Thank you again for your reply. I look forward to hearing back from you.

  • PSE 8 will not install on new imac OSX Snow Leopard

    28. Feb 26, 2010 4:16 PM in response to: docmark86
    Re: PSE8 will not install on Mac Snow Leopard 10.6.1
    I have a new iMac 21.5 screen with OSX Snow Leopard.  I installed IWork and turbo tax with no problem.  Nothing else.
    PSE 8 installation fails after about 80% installation just as install for PSE 8 starts. I've spent hours on the phone with Adobe and they blame it on OSX   Error analysis states:   "Uncaught JavaScript exception: Unable to read Adobe file version for path /Library/Fonts/MinionPro-Bold.otf  Apple techs have also tried."   The latest communications from Adobe instructs me on validating fonts.  We have also tried  CS3 Clean Script since the install failed several times. Case # is 0181442609.    Nothing works and Apple techs are still researching.  Any suggestions from an Adobe professional?  I am new to the Mac environment so any complicated actions may require some "hand holding".
    Thanks to all!
    Doc

    Doc, I would suggest go to the font location which from your post is: <Macintosh HD>/Library/Fonts/MinionPro-Bold.otf. There should be a font file with this name. If it exists, just "cut" it from this location and paste it on the desktop for some time and then try to install PSE again and see if that works.
    If the font file doesnt exist and instead an empty folder names "MinionPro-Bold.otf" exists, then delete the folder and then try to install PSE again.
    In either case, please do attach the installer log file in the forum thread so that I can have a look at it. They can be located at the below location:
    <Macintosh HD>/Library/Logs/Adobe/Installer/"...Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0...."
    If there are multiple copies of the installer log files, then please delete them and then try to install PSE 8 again. If it fails, quit the installer and attach the new log files which are generated to this thread.
    Regards,
    Ankush
