Re installed os x but iPhoto, iMovie and garage band missing. any way to recover the apps?
anyway to recover my those apps? or my only option is to buy them?
The installer discs that shipped with your Mac should have a restore installer for installing them, if you didn't buy them originally from the App Store. If you did buy them from the App Store, you may be able to ask them to be rereleased for download from http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact.html?form=account&topic=MacAp pStoreAccountandBilling
If you bought the machine from a non-Apple authorized source, ask them to call AppleCare for the original discs to be sent to you. Otherwise call AppleCare yourself for the original discs:

Since upgrading to Yosemite my iPhoto, iMovie and Garage band has simply disappeared from my Mac. HELP!?
Hi Jdireen,
As someone who uses the iLife applications on a daily basis on my Mac I can understand how it would be upsetting to have them disappear suddenly. Let's see if we can get you back up and running.
You can download the applications again and reinstall them from the Mac App Store -
GarageBand - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/garageband/id682658836?mt=12
iMovie - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/imovie/id408981434?mt=12
iPhoto - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iphoto/id408981381?mt=12
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Is iPhoto and iMovie and garage band on Lion reinstall thumb drive from Apple??
Is iphoto and imovie and garage Band On the Os x Lion reinstall thumb Drive Sold By Apple???
No. iLife is a separate product that is bundled with the purchase of a new Mac, not the purchase of a new OS.
So, anyone with an older Mac would have pay for an upgrade to iLife in addition to paying for an upgrade to Lion.
On a positive note, you can now upgrade separate components in the App Store (i.e. iPhoto), instead of paying for the complete iLife suite -
We are using iPhoto '09 trying to import photos from a memory card. We stopped the import and ejected the card over 20 hours ago, but iPhoto says its still importing. Any idea how long the import should run if there were 5000 photos on the card?
Don't know how long it would take to import that many photos but if you stopped import and ejected the card ther is something else wrong here.
I would Force Quit iPhoto. Then Restart your mac. Then restart iphoto to see if any or all of your photos were imported. If they ae you're good to go. If they were not imported I would try importing fewer photos at a time and see what happens. -
IMovie and Garage Band gone after Mountain Lion upgrade.
I upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion by buying it in the itunes store and uploading it. Now, imovie and garage band are gone. I have nothing in My Purchases, as these came with my mac when I bought it, and I don't think I have a cd. Can I get these back without buying new?
As shldr said, iLife applications (iMovie, iPhoto, GarageBand, iDVD and iWeb) came preinstalled on your Mac, so if you made a clean install of Mac OS X, they were deleted because Mac OS X doesn't include iLife apps.
In order to install the iLife applications again, you need the Applications DVD that came with your Mac, so insert it and follow the steps to install your iLife applications. If you haven't got the DVD, call Apple to get replacement DVDs > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 After installing the applications, open Apple menu > Software Update to install the most recent version -
I needed memory to upgrade so I exported all of my iphoto to an external hard drive. I then deleted and emptied the trash. The photos are fine but the videos are blank. Is there any way to recover the videos? Any software recovery programs apple supported?
no official way but if you open the Apple TV and put the hd in the external case it should mount and give you access to the data on it

Hi ... I had to replace my iPad and I want restore from backup but I forgot my password, is there any way of recovering it?
Would the backup be password protected? I don't know ... After you restore from a back-up, and if you have passwords set up, would the newly restored iPad require a password or would it be "live" for 5 minute or however long the iPad was set to wait to require a password? Maybe wiser heads can advise...

When my wife's Mac Book Pro was being updated to the latest version of OS X the laptop locked up at a grey screen with the Apple icon and status bar. Is there any way to recover the data and complete the install? I have not tried anything yet because of the data issue. I am not sure which OS X version as I did not install the software.
Used Macs of every description are always available on Ebay and Craigslist and from a plethora of online used-Mac resellers. Apple sells refurbished late-model Macs at 10-20% discounts with a new-computer warranty and the opportunity to extend the warranty with AppleCare.

Is there a way to get a version of the Garage Band app that runs on version 5.1.1? I have an iPad 1 and can't get any higher iOS. The App store is telling me that Garage Band only runs on iOS 7.
Unfortunately the answer is still no.

My PC hard drive crashed and I was wondering if there was any way to recover the tunes I had purchased.
It has always beenv ery basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just this reason. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, not good, then you can redownload some purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Your MacBook Pro came with iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand, and what you did is to install iLife from a DVD having these applications from the Mac App Store.
What I recommend you is to delete the iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand copy you have. To do it, open Finder, select Applications in the sidebar and delete them. Then, open the App Store, go to Purchases and download iMovie, iPhoto and GarageBand. iDVD will be working after doing this -
I purchased an album from the itunes store on my Ipad2 thinking i could access it from my windows laptop where I sync my ipod. I turned on Home Sharing and can see my laptop libraries from my ipad but not vice versa. Is there any way to fix this so I can transfer the album to the itunes on my laptop?
Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

If I use an SD Card on both the windows 7 and Mac OS (using bootcamp), is there any way to see the data seen on the Mac OS side while using the Windows OS?
Windows Aero style uses a different background image than Mac:
Windows Aero:
#nav-bar {
background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(253,253,253,0.45), rgba(255,255,255,0));
Mac:
#nav-bar {
background: url(chrome://browser/skin/Toolbar-background-noise.png),
linear-gradient(hsl(0,0%,93%), hsl(0,0%,83%));
I can't test hands on, but you might be able to clear that OSX "fog" using a rule such as:
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
#nav-bar, #PersonalToolbar {
background-image: none !important;
background-color: transparent !important;
This could be applied using the Stylish extension or by creating/editing a userChrome.css file. -
I moved the iMovie projects and events folder to a regular harddrive. I know now, i the aftermath that it was a wrong thing to do, and i was wondering whether there are some way to recover the projects to use them in iMovie again?
More details on why you think a regular harddrive was the wrong place to move a movie.
What other kind of harddrive is there besides regular? Irregular?

Like the subject line says - I set up a new account in itunes. Put in my personal information (credit card, address) but - when it came time to provide my email address - I gave one that does not belong to me (similar to my name but not my correct address). Is there any way to retrieve the information I inputted OR put in my correct email address?
Thanks.go to appleid.apple.com. Click on manage my acct. sign in using the email you provided (even if it is wrong, it is the one you provided, so technically it is your username.) Once you sign in, it should have your details right there, it will say "apple ID and primary email address" and to the irgh of that, it will say edit. choose edit, and provide the correct info.
