Not worth $130! Get iLife '08 instead!

Not worth $130! Get iLife '08 instead! Seriously, what's the point, you get next to nothing for $130. Yeah, time machine is great, but you have to spend another $100 for an external hard-drive. I love Macs, but I am very disappointed with Leopard...

The ranting here is really about how Leopard didn't come with iLife08, and how it didn't update those programs associated with iLife08. Even though it was never stated by Apple or any press releases that Leopard would update those programs. That is why they released iLife08 way before Leopard.

  • HT204053 I am not able to update my apps because every time I am doing this, it is asking for a password which I have never used and the person who used it is in no more contact. how can i get my id instead of his??

    I am not able to update my apps because every time I am doing this, it is asking for a password which I have never used and the person who used it is in no more contact. how can i get my id instead of his??

    Apps can only be updated using the same Apple ID and password they were originally purchased with.

  • I installed Mac OS 10.9.4, but did not get iLife and iWorks. How can I obtain these

    I installed Mac OS 10.9.4, but did not get iLife and iWorks. How can I obtain these? Somebody talked about redemption codes, but I did not find any extra information. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance and best regards

    If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, install them from the computer's original disks.
    If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, log into the Mac App Store with the Apple ID used to register the computer, click on the Purchases tab, and download them.
    If neither of these is applicable, buy them from the Mac App Store.

  • HT204291 Don't bother trying to get Airplay to work even if you have all the latest updates etc..if your computer is a MacBook Pro 2008 or earlier..The Apple staff have decided they are too old and not worth supporting...

    Don't bother trying to get Airplay to work even if you have all the latest updates etc..if your computer is a MacBook Pro 2008 or earlier..The Apple staff have decided they are too old and not worth supporting...

    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.
    Patrick is either mistaken or describing basic airplay and not mirroring.

  • I've reinstalled my MacBook Pro (OSX Lion) using a different apple ID, and now I can't install any iLife apps. In the app store it comes up with "Accept" and then tells me It can't accept from my user ID. How can I fix this or get iLife back?

    Mostly explained in the title. My dad gave me his MacBook, and I went ahead and wiped all of his stuff by using the recovery partition to wipe/reinstall OSX Lion. In the setup I used a new apple ID and now I can't get iLife apps. I'm relatively new to how apple works its purchases, so I'm not sure what's up. Is it that my computer has a unique ID set to the first apple ID used on it, and if so, how can I get this reset to my ID? I'm planning to get an iPhone 5 soon so I'd like to be able to use photo stream with iPhoto and try out Guitar Band.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    -Tom
    PS: I couldn't find a correct catagory, so I hope this is close enough. If not please tell me where I should be posting this.

    Contact the App store for Apple ID help. Their support link is on the right of the App store window

  • Why am I not able to  get a break down of my off peak minutes for my calls made to Mexico?

    I have the Nationwide Mexico Plan. I have unlimited nights and
    weekend calls for the United States and a 1000 minute limit for Mexico. I always check my minutes by *611, #646 or My Verizon. Why is there never an estimate of how many minutes I use calling Mexico? Why is it that, not even a customer service rep can give me an estimate of the minutes I have used calling Mexico ? If I have a limit, I should be able to get an estimate of how many minutes I am using . Maybe Verizon expects me to go on My Verizon and calculate it myself with calculator, the primitive way. I am very disappointed with Verizon. Verizon is suppose to be the best. Why is there no email address for me to email a person with any issues I have with this service. Will my issue be resolved? Will anybody ever answer me? Is this discussion group going to help me with my problem? Will I have to report Verizon to the FCC.
    Hoping to find a solution!!!!  >Changed Font<

    Being a college graduate, I am sure you are aware this is a "forum" and NOT a "chat room".
    As to contacting the BBB or FCC, I was not aware the FCC required Verizon to give you a "breakdown" or summary of your Mexico minutes separated from the rest of your minutes. I guess you learn something new every day.
    You say your minutes are available in your MyVerizon but they are just not listed as "Mexico" minutes. Instead of using a calculator, you could download your usage into an Excel spreadsheet and then sort them by area code. Seems to be an easier way than adding up each individual call. Good luck.

  • How can I get ilife (iphoto/imovie) on my Used Retina ... Previously purchased new mbp 17 and have an Imac 27....

    Well I just purchased another Retina mbp 15 and this ones a keeper (sold 2 before this was just looking for a mint one).  Now my issue is I cant get ilife (in particular imovie and iphoto) without purchasing it and I dont want to do that.... yet.
    I did purchase a brand new mbp 17 in 2010 but not sure if I registered it or logged into the app store. Dont think I did because I dont see any downloads available in the app store.
    I have an imac 27 Im using right now and I dug up the appllications cd it came with. 
    My questions are:
    How can I install ilife or any of the apps without buying them?
    Are the applications one use only for the specific machines?
    Is there any way to use the resource dvd to install onto my retina ?
    (regarding this I have tried using remote disc and my retina wont show anything under remote disc when the cd is in my ima )
    ANy input or help is appreciated. I did enjoy using imove and iphoto alot and would like to have them again.

    I appreciate the replies. Grant if I have an Imac and the apps on the cd then what you are saying is it should be tied to my apple id and therefore I should be able to install them on my new macbook?
    I dont recall when I bought my mbp 17 if it had a cd and back then it was my first mac.. dont think there was an app store just itunes. It isnt tied to my account but shouldnt it be? I guess the person who bought that 17 from me got a free bundle :/
    Its not a matter of $30 I understand that fully. Its just its $30 wasted if I am able to get it.
    What im confused about (and I dont care to argue apples reasoning for it) is tying ilife to 'that Mac alone" is just dumb when a new owner of a machine cant install it and has to buy it again. that means the original owner keeps the apps for any machine he wishes and it isnt for the machine.
    I think im confusing myself and possibly answered my own question but ill leave it lol.

  • I cannot copy off the clipboard. I move the copy icon, get support.mozilla instead

    I can't paste from the clipboard. I move the paste icon to the toolbar and get support.mozilla instead. If I clip on this the paste function is not available

    I have my Time Capsule set up and can access it remotely, however, I cannot copy anything to the TC disk from my desktop. 
    Sorry but do you mean you cannot copy from local LAN to the TC, or from a remote location to the TC.
    What OS is on the computer.. it is a common issue with Mavericks.. where the networking giants have gone back to tin cans and string.
    I recommend a full reset of the TC to factory.
    Change all naming to SMB type.. it is so important now with Mavericks which is SMB by default.
    SMB uses names that are short.. <10characters is great.. keep it less than 20 max.
    No spaces.
    Pure alphanumeric.
    ie when apple setup suggests a name like
    Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule.. it breaks every rule. It is over long.. has spaces and illegal character.
    So change all names.. eg TCgen4 (replace number with actual Gen if you like.. or just name it TC).
    Call wireless TCwifi (or TC24ghz and TC5ghz if you want separate naming for the bands).
    Then in finder.. use Go, Connect to server.
    Type in
    AFP://TCname  (where TCname is whatever you have now named your TC compliant with the rules above)
    If that fails
    AFP://TCname.local (Mavericks gets domain name issues.. it needs the domain and is local by default.)
    or
    AFP://TCIPaddress. eg AFP://10.0.1.1 which is router address by default.. only use if the ip is static.
    The computer will hopefully discover the resource and now you can type in your password.. public by default.. or whatever you changed it to.
    Now try copying files to the TC.

  • Imported old computer via time machine into new 2012 macbook pro, but its still running ilife 09 instead of 11?

    imported old computer via time machine into new 2012 macbook pro, but its still running ilife 09 instead of 11?

    I am assuming you had iLife 09 on the old computer - when you moved everything over, that came along with it.
    I also have older versions of iLife (on install disks) and just recently got a new 2012 Macbook Pro. I noticed that iMovie 11, iPhoto and Garageband (I think) are listed in my Mac App Store Purchases with a notation to "accept". So you might want to check MAS to see if the apps are sitting there.
    Now, I have chosen not to accept them for now for two reasons: I have iLife 11 on a disk and prefer that rather than having it tied to MAS/Apple ID and as long as I have my disk version installed, I also still have iDVD which I use a lot. I'm not sure if "accepting" those three from MAS would wipe out my iLife 11 installs including iDVD (which would be unacceptable for me). So, since I already have the latest version, I've opted to ignore the "accept" and, in fact, will leave it like that - if I ever sell this machine, the buyer can then accept them if they want with their own Apple ID. So before accepting the apps (if they are listed in MAS), you might want to check to make sure that your iLife install isn't wiped out - that is, if you have iDVD and want to keep it.

  • People are getting my email instead of contact name?

    Not sure if there is a way around it or not, but whenever I start up a conversation through text on my iPad and I haven't previously had a conversation going for it to show up on my iPad, people get my email address instead of my number which would be in their contacts with my name. So essentially they'll ask who this is, I'll explain and I say to merge the two contacts. Just that is a hassl, is there a way around this at all?
    Under messages in the settings, under Send & Receive it has my email address which I can remove if I want, would that get rid of my email address when I send a text and they would supposedly be getting a text thru my email instead of my contact number? On both my iPhone and iPad I have that email under Send & Receive, if I deleted it would people stop getting my email address for a text or FaceTime (also happens for FaceTime) and just get my number instead (and if my number is in their contacts practically my name)?
    I Just got a new iPhone a few weeks ago and haven't been experimenting heavily until the holidays now. Plus I got a iPad a few days ago. So that's why I've been getting these problems.
    On another note, if it helps at all, my iPad has cellular for AT&T.

    Does anyone know at all?

  • I added a custom ringtone . Then later I tried to add another three set  but now after sync . Am not able to get rid of the first one... It's still there as my custom ringtone. But my iPhone in iTunes shows all four... But the phone shows only one...?

    Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!

  • Getting iLife on a open box mac.

    I have a family member that just bought an open box comuter at a retailer and is unable to download iLife. I've read that it could have been registered by the previous owner yet when the product was returned the liscense stayed with him even though he doesn't own the product anymore. So the new owner my family member is down iLife and is unable to download it when it should come with just as the OS did. I've heard of Apple warranty reset request forms yet I not been able to find one anywhere in these forums or even mentioned. Does apple have a solution for this? Will there ever be solution for this?

    Micheal,
    You still don't comprehend so you are banned from this chat for life. When I bought my mac mini it came with iLife '11 that I got for free I didn't have to for pay it. I linked it to my Apple ID & was able to use it on my other macs since I now own it now for life. So if you buy a new and mac register it you get iLife linked to Apple ID for free no extra charge, zero. Now if you then return that mac to the apple store or what ever other retailer you bought it from you still get to keep the iLife, which I think isn't fair. There are pros and cons to the app store this is one of the cons, being able you use your apps an all your macs if you own more than one pro, I think I read somewhere up to 5. Micheal I also read some of your other posts & it seems I'm the only person you have offended. Your you have such a high level of experience yet no profesionalism, I don't know if it's your ego but your rude. I came to this forum for help not to have my intelligence insulted.
    So I tried the other good recommendations. I have already wiped the partitions and restored the mac using both internet recovery and a Lion bootable USB I created back when I bought Lion but still no iLife. I had them call 1-800-APL-CARE and they said they couldn't do anything even if that apple was now registered to them, apparently once an apple product is registered for the first time and if that wasn't you, you will not get much help from the 1-800-APL-CARE number, I've also read that using your warranty is nightmare unless you fill out an "Apple Warranty Reset Request Form" that you can only find in the Apple store since I've had no luck finding it on their site or any mention of it on these forums. I had them sign out of their Apple ID and re-sign in and still no iLife.
    So as of right now it seems that the only answer is to go to an Apple store to have them reload iLife or have the retailer issue out an App Store card for purchasing iLife. I never new that buying a used Apple product was such a nightmare.
    Thank you all (except Micheal you have issues, try being good) Any updates keep posting it might help other people going through this same nightmare (except for Micheal your banned).

  • When trying to Update my iTunes Apps, in iTunes, I get a message instead...

    I've been trying to update my iTunes Apps, in iTunes, for over 24 hours, I get a message instead...
    In other words, there are '155 Updates Available' for applications in my iTunes Library. I click on the "155 Updates Available" button and after a long pause, I get a message that says, "*We could not complete your iTunes Store request."*
    *The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later*."
    I believe I tried to update my apps about a month ago, but got the same results.
    What to do?

    I've been having the same issue on multiple computers for awhile now. Have adjusted firewall and network settings but still not able to get to update screen for apps.
    I can access my account and purchase new apps, videos, podcasts, and music; just can't get to the updates and they are stacking up rapidly. Any suggestions on how to fix?

    Hi Tom
    On my machine it seems that the fi ligature doesn't exist with Times New Roman (installed version is 5.01.3x)
    It's available in Warnock Pro but the st one which is designed in Warnock doesn't apply.
    This last screenshot was made from Linotype Explore, the old free version.
