Remove preinstalled iLife 08 and replace with iLife 06

I'm planning to buy an intel iMac shortly. I know that iLife 08 comes preinstalled on the machines - is it possible to delete everything except for iDvd and reinstall iLife 06? I was told by a genius that it can't be done because of the licensing agreements or something like that. In other words, you can't remove bundled software

You can remove the bundled software but if you install iLife 08 on the new computer without deleting them from your current computer you will be in violation of the license agreement.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Can i remove white sky and replace with another

    hi, im new to elements and photo editing, is there an easy to understand way of removing a whashed out white sky and replacing it with a blue/white cloud style of sky, i already have a donor sky.thanks for any advice given, ive got v7

    Make a selection of a segment of the donor sky with one of the selection tools
    Go Edit>copy
    Open the picture with the washed out sky
    Go to Edit>paste. This will put the donor selection on its own layer. Position it with the move tool over the old sky
    Set blend mode of this layer to darken
    Set foreground color chip (lower left) to white
    Drag foreground to transparent linear gradient from below up to top of tree line (if there are trees)
    With soft white brush, at reduced opacity, paint horizon on a new layer at top of stack. Horizon should be lighter than rest of sky..

  • Unable to open a CS5 file in CC - does not recognize plugin - please help. Just removed old software and replaced with CC yesterday.

    I was having issues with illustrator and it was time to upgrade anyway, so I uninstalled all previous versions of Adobe and upgraded to CC. Now I'm trying to open my old files and the exact error reads, "Could not read the fiel because the plug-in could not understand this file." What plug-in do I need to download? And why wasn't this part of the package in the first place?

    Jeannie,
    The three step reinstallation may be relevant.
    But you could try to create a new document and File>Place the troublesome one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
    If it is a corrupt file, there are some more things to try, but in this case it might take too much of the little time before your deadline.
    Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
    http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
    and another similar website,
    http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error-occurred-pdf2dtp-fi le-recovery/
    As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.

  • Keyboard shortcut that removes fill effects and replace with 'x' symbols

    I accidentally hit a keyboard shortcut that has "ruined" the display of my project.  As the title states all my fill effects disappeared
    and little "x" symbols are now displayed on every object.  Lines are all rendered as single-pixel black lines.  I have tried hitting every possible key combination to get rid of this. I have looked up illustrator key codes and checked them but can't find it.  I have tried closing and reopening the file but it won't go away!

  • Rewrite  process and remove the call to f-54 and replace with bapi proces

    Hi Gurus,
    Please help me to find the soultion.
    The root cause of this continual problem is the design and use of BDC session for F-54.  Is there a redesign possible with ECC6.0?
    I wanted to rewrite the process and remove the call to f-54 and replace with bapi process.
    if this is now possible in ECC 6.0
    The benefit would be to better control what PO was used in the DP recoupment.
    Thanking you,
    Raju Singhireddy.

  • How do I remove one failing hard drive from raid set and replace with new one

    Last Friday apparently one of my raid drives started failing.
    As I mentioned on this forum I started getting continous beeping.
    I was finally able to get the raid working at a degraded level.  I ordered a replacement hard drive which is arriving today.
    (In the meantime I made twice daily backups of my work.....)
    Below was the message I got from the browser based raid software:
    Blahblah 09    1000.2GB   RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ
    Blahblah 10    1000.2GB     Free                 SamSung HD103SJ
    Blahblah 11    1000.2GB   RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ
    Blahblah 12    1000.2GB   RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ
    (See this earlier thread if you wish!)
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/727867?tstart=0
    At one point when I did the checked the browser interface I saw the message Failed and Degraded
    As I said, I was able to work over the weekend on the degraded system.
    This morning I got the beeping again and did the rescue and now I am running a "full raid" without the notice that one raid was "Free".
    In any case, the new hard drive is arriving today.
    What steps should I take to incorporate the new drive into the raid system.
    I have one OS drive
    and 4 tb raid drives.   One needs to be replaced with the new one that I am getting today.
    Thanks
    Rowby

    Harm,
    Regarding your comment:
    Re: How do I remove one failing hard drive from raid set and replace with new one
    Please tell me how to read the serial number from an individual drive rather easily, without un-installing them:
    If you select the proper drive to change out, you only need to remove one drive and look at its serial number...
    Step 1: Identify bad drive serial number using Areca's tools
    Step 2: Turn off the computer
    Step 3: Remove what you think is the bad drive based on following your numbered cable method, marked hot-swap bays, whatever
    Step 4: Verify that the serial number matches the "bad drive" serial number from step 1; if it does great, proceed; if it does not match, go back to step 3
    Step 5: Change out the CORRECT drive - that's the bottom line for this whole procedure
    Cheers,
    Jim

  • ●  Remove Black (K) and replace it with CMY...

    Hello -
    I regulary have to remove the Black (K) for printing cost reason at work...
    Some time ago, I found a small and easy trick which involved playing between a specific profile and then past the CMYK picture to the RGB mode and come back to CMYK...
    The Black was replaced by a mix between the Cyan, the Magenta and the Yellow, without losing to much "relief" in the picture.
    It works perfectly except when I come back to my "regular" CMYK profile (which for Europe is the FOGRA39...), the Black is back again!  :-(
    Does someone know a better way to accomplish this?
    Remove the Black and replace it with CMY?
    FYI. I don't want to just remove the black, but also to replace it with CMY...
    Thank you, have a nice day...
    - Dimitri

    Hello  Gernot -
    Thank you for your reply,
    It could (not sure yet) make the job,
    except that I can't choose my europen profile (FOGRA39…)  -> See attachment…
    Could you help me on this?
    Also, you mentionned "not a good idea" to do this, what do you mean by this?
    Thank you,

  • New version of safari won't work on mac 10.7.5, can't be removed, can't be replaced with old version

    new version of safari won't work on mac 10.7.5, can't be removed, can't be replaced with old version

    When I try to open safari a message says: You can't use this version of the application Safari with this version of Mac OS X 10.7.5. The application requires Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
    I see Recovery needs Wi Fi which is not available here and Recovery is loaded with a list of  potential disasters.
    To heck with Safari I'll just use Firefox. Apple sure screwed up here judging from the multitude of similar complaints on the internet.

  • HT1719 I have music on my Shuffle and want to transfer it onto iTunes but when I go to Sync it, it warns me that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what's on my iTunes. I have a new mac-mini and my old computer was an HP.

    Can anyone tell me how to tranfer the music that is on my Shuffle to iTunes? When I go to Sync it, it gives me a warning that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what is on my iTunes. I recently changed computers from an HP to a Mac-Mini and did not transfer/sync the itunes prior to getting rid of my itunes. So the music I had on itunes does not appear in my library. Help please!

    See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your new Mac and into iTunes.

  • I was trying to set up my aunt's iphone 3gs with itunes but accidently backed up her phone with my phone information so now all her contacts, photos, and notes are all gone and replaced with my phone information. Is there anyway I can restore it back?

    I was trying to help my aunt set up her phone to itunes on my computer but when it asked me whether I wanted to set it as new device or use the backup from previous iphone data, I clicked restore from backup. I didn't realize that clicking that option would delete all of her information on the phone and relace it with mine. Her contacts, phones, notes, and all of her information are gone and replaced with mine just like my phone. Is there any way I can restore her phone because she really needs all those information orignally stored on her phone? She just got her phone not long ago and didn't backed up any of her information on her phone.

    If her data was not backed up or synced to something, it's gone. Sorry.

    my iphone is synced and backed up with another computer which is now broken...i have synced it with my new computer  but it hasnt transfered anything over to itunes and when i try to add anything to my iphone it says all data will be erased and replaced with the current itunes? i dont want to lose all my apps and music.... i dont know how to go around this problem? i want to back it all up and sync it properly to my new computer so that is now my main computer , so i can add ring tones and music etc with out it erasing everything ive got. any answers would be great and muchly appreciated. thanks, im not sure what operating system my iphone has either.....

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.
