Upgrading to iLife Family Pack

Hello
I owned iLife 08 for my Macbook but we now have two more Macbooks in the house so I purchased the Family Pack.
Can I change licence somewhere on the Macbook where it is already installed so that the Single User licence is available for me to sell, as I have the Family Pack? I will just install the Family Pack on the others.
Many thanks
Deborah

Deborah:
You don't need to worry about licenses. Just install the the family pack on the other Macs. That's all that's necessary.
Do you Twango?
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 and Leopard. 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.

Rajesh,
Please note that (Patch 2304444 - Marketing Online Release 11.5.7B) is already included in 11.5.9, 11.5.10, and 11.5.10.2, and you are already on 11.5.10.2. So, why would you need to apply this patch?

Upgrading to a family pack

Can I just upgrade to a family pack if I have iWork-single user? I just bought a new iMac.

I don't agree. It looks to me that he asked that exact question and that would begin the point where it gets silly.
The way I read this thread is that someone wants to know if you need a family pack to install Leopard onto multiple computers (Post 1).
He's told that he actually needs the family pack or he will be breaking the EULA (Post 2)
He then posts a question if it will be difficult to do with just the *single user version* (Post 3) The it in the first post is to use a single user license on multiple computers.
Now if the original message didn't already say he wanted to install a single license to multiple computers, then maybe his question should be "would it be hard to install Leopard to a single machine?" That question has nothing to do with this thread.
That's the way it reads. No mind reading is possible. I read what he says and don't assume anything. If the subject is changed, then post a new thread or at least make it clear the subject has changed. He still needs a family pack to install Leopard to multiple computers. If he doesn't want to buy one, then he will have to go elsewhere for installation information that breaks the EULA.
The original post was not a silly question.

Upgrade single family pack?

I'm leaving Monday on a business trip for which I'll need a spreadsheet on my laptop, so today (Saturday) went to the local Apple Store and bought a copy of iWork '08. I'm working my way through Numbers right now and so far everything is going well.
Just one problem: I wanted to buy a Family Pack so I could also install it on my desktop Mac. But they were sold out of Family Packs - all they had were the single-user version, so I had to buy what they had.
Is it going to be possible to pay the extra $20 and upgrade to a Family Pack? Thanks...

No, there is no upgrade path. A search of this forum probably would have returned several threads on the subject.
You can remove iWork '08 from your desktop Mac & put it on your MacBook/MacBook Pro to remain within the single-user license.
When the Apple Store didn't have the family pack, you could just use the trial version for up to 30 days. You could then order the family pack online & just enter the serial number on your Macs after you get it (this is what I did).

IWeb, .Mac family pack and 2 computers

Currently I have a single .Mac account and am using iWeb. My hubby wants his own iWeb site on his own machine so should I upgrade to the family pack on .Mac or get him his own .Mac account? If we go with the family pack does everything need to be done on 1 machine?
Thanks!

Apple wrote:
The Family Pack includes a master account, with everything in the Basic Membership, including 10GB of online storage and 100GB of monthly data transfer, plus four sub-accounts for a total of five .Mac accounts. Each sub-account gets its own email address, iDisk folder, 2.5GB of email and file storage, and 25GB of monthly data transfer. And there’s a shared iDisk folder just for the family. The master account administers the sub-accounts, and the membership can be renewed only through the master account.
Differences between getting 2 .Mac or Family Pack:
1. Price: 10 $ a year (Family is cheaper)
2. If one day another family member wants to have its own website you're better off in having the Family Pack
What's the same in getting one or the other?
1. No matter which one you choose you could have the sites on separate computers and publish from separate computers as everyone would have it's own access data
2. As I understand it: Family Pack Total storage 10 GB (+4*2,5GB) = 20GB and 2 .Mac accounts storage 20 GB
Regards,
Cédric
As mentioned by Chuck you can use the same account. As long as your sites are named differently. The only problem is that when you enter web.mac.com/username/ you will get to the last published site (yours or your sons) unless you replace the index.html file every time you publish. You could also both have a Site named with the same name (let's say Index) at first place in your iWebs followed by the personal sites. The Index site will be identical in both iWeb and contain just an index so people can choose which site to look at yours or yours sons (however sons mostly want only their own stuff... I think... And don't want friends looking at the father's site or so...). That way there's no problem putting in web.mac.com/username/ people would always see the same site no matter who published last

Using iWeb with MobileMe family pack

I just upgraded to the family pack for mobile me. I had been using it for my homepage, but now I'd like to make a homepage for my son, and my wife wants to make a homepage as well.
How is this handled in iWeb? I don't see a way to tell it where to publish which site when I add a new site.
What is the easiest way to handle multiple mobile me websites on one mac?
Thanks.

Not having used the sharing option since there's only one user on my Mac, I don't know the ins and outs of what you want to do. Terence Develin might. If you want to share the library with all users and have them be able to access the library, import new file and perform edits then the best solution is to put the library on an external HD whose ownership has been set to off. This Apple document explains the process: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users.
The drive can also be used to backup other files as well.

Upgrade from a single license to a family pack...?

Is it possible to upgrade a single user license for iWork 09 to a family pack? Sorry for posting here, there is no forum under iWork it seems. Thanks for any help.

Mac Daddy 08 wrote:
I think the point of his question is, He wants to remove single user copy from his Mac, install family copy to all of his Mac's, and then possibly resale his single user copy.
I also would like to possibly do the same thing. When I upgraded to iLife '09, I only owned 1 Macbook, now I own 2 Macbooks and I would like to upgrade to family license. When I upgrade can't I resale my single user copy?
Check your licence agreement. If it doesn't prohibit transferring the (single user) licence, then it would seem reasonable to assume you can do so. Being neither a lawyer nor an Apple representative, my advice remains the same as before: This might be a question best answered at an Apple Store or another authorized reseller.

Upgrading to 10.5 - Do I need a family pack?

I have a mac book pro and a powerpc g5. I want to upgrade them both to leopard and I'm getting conflicting messages about whether I can do it with a single user license or not. Can I? Do I have to buy the family package?

Upgrade to family pack mobile me query

Hi
I think I know the answer to this but just wanted to confirm. I have a single account mobile me and wanted to know if I could upgrade to family pack or add one more e-mail account without having to pay the full cost of a new family pack (ie £87)
thanks

You will be charged the proportion of the difference between the individual and family pack for the remaining time of your current year's subscription, as long as you pay by credit card. If you buy a 'retail pack' you will have to wait until the current subscription expires.
A Family Pack gives you four sub-accounts, each with its own email address. There are no email-only accounts.

Do we have to upgrade HRMS 11.5.10.2 Family Pack I to Family Pack K?

Hi,
Just a really quick question. Do we need to do a HRMS upgrade from 11.5.10.2 Family Pack I to Family Pack K to get isetup working? Our DBA has identified through analyzing the recommended patches (for 11.5.10.2) that this is a pre-requisite. We really want to try and minimise testing\effort in getting isetup working.. can we avoid applying some patches? is there an alternative? or do we need to be on family pack K and apply all the recommended patches?
Thanks

Functional Consultant

Hi,
Well I really want to know if we have to apply the patch 5201280 which has the prequisite of being on Family pack K.. Can we skip this patch?
The README file of Patch 5201280 says you need to have (Patch 3333633 - Oracle HRMS Family Pack J) applied as a pre-req. (NOT Family pack K).
Regards,
Hussein

My macbook keeps ejecting iLife 11 family pack

My macbook keeps ejecting iLife 11 family pack disk?

The drive accepts discs but they do not mount or are automatically ejected
Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
Reset the Power Manager (PMU) or System Management Controller (SMC).
Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. For example a "combo drive" can read a DVD-R and burn a CD-R however it cannot burn a DVD-R. The utility System Profiler may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
If the discs continue to not be recognized, please contact Apple, contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store for additional troubleshooting, evaluation, or service.

IPod Touch upgrade to use iMessage and it syncs with Dad's iPhone info!!! Using family pack Mobile Me. HELP???

I have three children that use iPod Touches. They are all iOS5 capable. I upgraded the first one this morning and it synced with my iPhone profile on iCloud. It asked for the iTunes account information which is what I believe caused this. We use Mobile Me Family Pack and each of the children have a unique @me.com account. How do I fix this problem so that each iPod has it's own unique login so that iMessage will work? I don't really want to open them up to any further exposure on the Web though... . As it stands I am able "micromanage" their contact list via Mobile Me. Is there any way to make the iPods behave correctly and still maintain parental control as well as allow them to keep their unique profiles and contact lists???
...and for some reason, after upgrading my son's iPod Touch... his apps all disappeared from the device??? Strange, as this worked perfectly when I upgraded my iPhone yesterday.
PS. All my upgrades are current. iOS5 on iPhone 4, iTunes 10.5 on MBP.

I spent about 2 hours on the phone with Apple Support... had to restore both devices! Arrrgggghhh!!! Thankfully the iPhone had a Backup from yesterday. The iPod wasn't too tough to get back up and running either... although we had to completely reload it as if it were new. Then we found out that Apple won't let the device login with my son's @me.com email because he's too young (10). Quick work-around for now until Apple fixes this was to lie about his age in the setup. I don't like the work around, but it worked.

Can Mac Box Set Family Pack (10.6) upgrade Tiger (10.4) ?

Hello,
I bought "Mac Box Set Family Pack (10.6)" (Product Number MC210Z/A) primarily to upgrade three Leopard Al Macbook machines.
I have two Tiger (10.4.11) - one MB white with Core 2 Duo and one MBP with Core Duo. May I know if the upgrade will work for these machines as well ?
Thanks!

Hi. A couple of corrections. Mr. Mossberg is at the Wall Street Journal. He in fact, let the cat out of the bag that you can indeed upgrade directly from Tiger. see here:
http://theappleblog.com/2009/08/27/tip-from-mossberg-snow-leopard-upgrade-good-f or-all/
That being said, I have not tried this myself, so I cannot say with certainty that it will work.
A good idea would be to try to upgrade to an external FW drive, so you can test first. Second, remember that you will need to update many apps that are Tiger apps to work with SL.
Good luck
David

Upgrading to Family Pack

I purchased a single-install version of iWork '08 thinking I would install it on only one computer but Numbers is so great, I want to install it on my other two machines. Is there a way to "upgrade" my single-install serial number with a Family Pack serial number?
Thanks,
Jerry

This question came up quite a few times after family packs were introduced for iWork '05 a few months after the original release. The answer was "no." But there is a 10- or 14-day return policy on unopened software. You could return the single-license & buy a family pack.
I suggest anyone not sure if they will want a single license or family pack to download the iWork '08 trial & use it before you decide.

Since upgrading from mobile me i cannot see who is in my family pack

So i upgraded to icloud and did not reallise that I had another account for my wife on a family pack. The problem is that she cannot remember what her mobileme address is as I used it on her iphone to backup stuff and it was never used as an email. so now I need to know what it is but since upgrading to icloud I cannot. Any ideas how I can see what accounts I created with my family pack in my old mobileme account?

the problem is Firefox 5. I switched browsers and can get my FB messages just fine. Got to go check out Chrome.
