Trouble downloading imovie upgrade

i am having trouble downloading imovie upgrade. it seems to be stuck. Any ideas?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Trouble downloading after upgrading I cloud

    I upgraded I cloud storage because I was over my capacity but I am unable to download anything from I tunes.

    Hi spoiled247gal,
    The increase in your iCloud storage does not free up space on your device. If you don't have enough free memory on the device to download an app, then you will have to free up some space on it. iCloud is not related to that at all.
    To see where you are using up the most space, and to eliminate some things to free up some space go to Settings>General>Usage.
    Cheers,

  • How do i download imovie without upgrading my older mac to os x lion?

    It seems like I cant download Imovie from apple any more without accessing the app store, which needs you to download the new lion os in order to work. My mac cant handle lion as its a bit older, so how can i just get the imovie software without doing this!?

    Well you didn't tell us what Mac you have so this is a bit of guess. You are wrong in your assuption that to get the app store you must upgrade to Lion. In fact all that you need to do is upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.6. So if your Mac can be upgraded to Snow Leopard you can get the app store.

  • I am having trouble downloading attachments from email

    I have an iPad 2 that has been upgraded to IOS 7.0.4. This was a problem before the update - which is the reason for the update but that's another story.
    So for now, iPad 2 IOS 7.0.4 16GB wifi/cell model
    I am having trouble downloading attachments. Not all. but some. a movie in particular and some documents.
    I would thingk it was the email account but I can open it on my iPhone without issue.
    I would've thought the link was bad but I forwarded it one of my other email accounts and it opens fine.
    I have restarted, rebooted, deleated the mail account and reloaded it.
    Still nothing. I have tried to save the video by clicking the "Save Video" icon when you tap and hold the video but it never saves.
    Sometimes it will act like it is going to save because I get a black screen and a rotating flower in the middle of the screen and it says "Loading" but it never does anything. Other times it will just give me a message that says "Can't download attachement".
    Any one have any thoughts?

    What is your connection via speedtest.net ?
    Check istumbler or netstumbler to verify network interference
    Make sure DNS is set correctly (settings - general - network - configure DNS - automatic)

  • Having trouble installing iMovie HD on a new Mac with Mavericks

    I am having trouble installing iMovie HD on a new Mac with Mavericks.
    I know that iMovie HD works with Mavericks because we are using it on other Macs successfully.   However, those machines were upgraded starting with OS 10.6.   In other words, iMovie HD was installed on these Macs when the Macs had Snow Leopard.
    When I use the iLife 06 disc, I am presented with “You can't open the application “iLife 06” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I understand that iMovie HD  is universal, not PowerPC.  How can I get past this to install iMovie HD.
    Thanks

    OK, I made some progress.
    I used Pacifist (Shareware) to open the iMovie HD 6 install packages from the iLife '06 installer DVD (iMovie.pkg and iMovieThemes_Tiger.pkg) and let Pacifist install them to the right places.
    But doesn't iMovie HD 6 require QuickTime 7 to work ?

  • I CAN'T DOWNLOAD imovie for my mackbook air

    hi,i can't download imovie and iphoto for my mackbook air? that tell me need mac os x v10.7.5 of up. but i can't updates my system right now.

    Well, usually snow leopard comes with the 'bundled software' disk; maybe someone gave yan the machine w/o the disk(s) – or flash drive <-------------- on that point i'm not sure because my first MBA was just this past August and there is no more flash drive installer that comes with the MBA (if there ever was one). So I was thinking, for some strange reason, he was at least running an earlier version of Lion and could not update his machine for whatever reason. So he would have to upgrade to Mountain Lion, or wait for Mavericks (if his machine can upgrade to that)

  • Can't download iMovie

    I have Macbook OS X version 10.6.8. I want to download iMovie but the app store is teling me that I need at least 10.8 to do it. When I go to search for software updates on my computer it tells me that everything is up to date. I tried to download Mountain Lion 10.8.2 (the only one I saw available on the app site) it downloaded but told me I needed 10.8! *sigh* I really just want to pay my fifteen bucks for iMovie. I thought it was going to be easy. Is my Macbook too old or something? Can someone please help me out with what I should do? I would really appreciate it!

    First we need to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
      The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion and 10.9 Mavericks.
    You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
    An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
    An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    10.5 Leopard was written for Power PC Macs with code added to force it to run on Intel processors.
    10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
    10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
    10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It can only run on the Late 2008 through Mid 2010 MacBooks. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.
    The App Store version of iLife ‘11 programs (iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, Garage Band & iWeb) will only work with 10.7 or 10.8. You can get the iLife ’11 DVD which will run on 10.6  on eBay or Amazon.com fairly cheap.

  • I am having trouble moving files from iPhoto to a thumb drive.  Sometimes I can move 20 photos next time I can only move 2 photos or 0---this is during the same session.  I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.  Can someone please help?

    I am having trouble moving files from iphoto to a thumb drive.  During the same session sometime I can move 10 photos at a time, the next time I can only move one photo and sometime no photos will move.  I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.  I was using a MacBook Pro and had no problems like this.  I then upgraded to the MacBook Pro with Retina Vision and this is the computer I am having problems with.  Can anyone please give me a suggestion in how to fix this problem. THANK YOU.

    iPhoto problems should be posted in their forums.
    I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.
    Needs clarification.  You upload from your computer to the internet & download from a website/internet to your computer.  So which are you trying to do?  Either way, sounds like a browser issue.  You need to post in the forum of whichever browser you are using.

  • How can i download the upgrade without backing up texts?

    I want to download the upgrade, but I don't want my text messages backed up.
    Is there a way to do this?

    Is this for a new MacBook Pro? If you are entitled to a free upgrade, but are having trouble with the Mac App Store and can't download Lion, call Applecare and explain the situation and see if they can help you. It's always possible that the Mac App Store has been extra busy lately and for some reason may not have processed your request properly.
    First, though, check in your applications folder to be sure that the installer isn't already there. It's called "Install Mac OS X LIon.app". Step one is to download the installer. Step two is to run it. It will vanish from your Application folder after it runs, so if you want to make a copy of the installer, make one before you run it.
    Good luck!

  • Trouble downloading bt net protect plus (incorrect...

    I am having trouble downloading bt net protectplus to my laptop. When I enter my details into the initial log in pag,e it then tells me that I am not entitled as I am only on option 1 and should upgrade - I'm on option 2!!!
    This happened on my home PC also and I had to call cust services to sort it out. It'd be great if someone could advise me on what to do again because last time I was on the phone for over an hour!
    I definitely am on option 2 and have already got net protect on my PC. Just need it on my lap top too. Thanks!

    Hi,
    I was afraid you might say that! Last time, they ended up telling me to download from another link. The one I'm trying is www.bt.com/netprotectplus/download but there is another place to download from and that's what I can't remember. Any ideas on that by any chance??? Thanks again.

  • Unable to download iMove & iTune updates

    I have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. I am now unable to download iMove and iPhoto updates. I have contacted iTunes and have been told it is a technical problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Worked out what the problem was; evidently Mountain Lion does not like iLife 09 and needs to be updated with iLife11 before it can download. To enable Mountiain Lion to download, iLife11 was installed at the Apple Shop; to access updates I need to purchase iLife11 on my account.

  • Trouble downloading my game

    I am having trouble downloading my bejeweled blitz game after doing my customery downloading when asked. I have a 2nd generation ipod touch 32GB. When I delete and reinstall my app, it shows downloading, but when I click on the icon, it pops
    up and then immediately goes back into the menu. Someone told me I needed to do another upgrade, but is my older ipod touch
    able to accept a better upgrade or do I have to buy a new touch? My other apps are all ok.

    This could be because the app requires a higher version of iOS than you currently are running. Check the app in the store and see which version it requires. Then see if you have that version or higher by going into settings>general>about. If you don't have the correct version plug into iTunes and you should be prompted to update. If this doesn't work or happen your iPod may not support that version of ios and you would therefore need a new ipos I'm afraid. Hope this helps
