  • Why didn't my macbook pro come with iLife?

    I purchased a 13' pro from Best Buy a month ago and iLife was not included. I thought all macs came with iLife??? Do I really have to pay for the programs after just purchasing my mac a few weeks ago???

    iLife is included with all new Mac's just like before, that's iPhoto, iMove and Garageband.
    https://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/built-in-apps/13-and-15-inch/
    iWork is Pages, Numbers and some other junk.
    What has occured is you bought a open box computer, which iLife comes preinstalled from the factory, but because Best Baboons erased the drive, they only could install OS X, not iLife because it requires a AppleID/password and they can't use theirs as it has to be updated and that requires their AppleID and password to be given to you.
    If you didn't know you bought a open box, then you need to talk to Best Baboons for a refund as it's a used machine.
    So if you want iLife you can certainly place it back on for free, here are the instructions

  • Why didnt my recently bought open box macbook pro come with ilife?

    I bought an open box macbook pro, and for some wierd reason it didnt come with ilife...can someone help me out? Thanks in advance.

    I would take it back to Best Buy - 'open box' or not, the machine should have come with the iLife applications. They likley just reinstalled to OS, which does not install the iLife applications. Return it and tell them that you need iLife - it's up to the reseller to prepare the machine correctly for resale.

  • Doe's the mac come with windows 7?

    Does the MAC come with windows 7?

    No. You can run Windows on a Mac in several different ways, but all require that you purchase Windows separately. Apple only supplies the Windows drivers needed to integrate with the Apple hardware.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Why did my Macbook pro not come with a Lion CD or USB?

    I have a MacBook Pro 13" Early 2011 model with lion installed. The mac came with lion. But why did my mac not come with a CD or USB for lion?

    No Mac comes with a DVD or USB for Lion, everything is done online now.  For those who absolutely must have a USB you can buy Lion on a USB drive for $70 or thereabouts.
    If you're concerned about drive repair and re-installing Lion, these articles may be of interest:

  • Why doesn't my Macbook pro come with iPhoto or iMovie? I've already tried

    Why doesn't my Macbook pro come with iPhoto or iMovie? I have everything updated to the fullest capacity. Still..nothing..Help me!

    If you erase the MacBook Pro and made a clean install, see this document:  OS X: About OS X Recovery  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X
    If your computer came with OS X Lion or later and you erase your hard disk and install OS X, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
    After installation, start (up) from OS X.
    Choose App Store from the Apple menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

    I would doubt it as Mavericks was only released a few days ago. Check under About This Mac and it will tell you what OSX it is running.

  • Is there a reason why my macbook pro didn't come with a disc?

    Is there a reason why my macbook pro didn't come with a disc?

    If you just bought it and it came with Lion then you don't get a DVD. Instead what they have done is created a Recovery Partition on the drive that serves the same function.

  • Mac didn't come with iLife!

    I just bought my MacBook Pro on Sunday from Virgin Megastores and it didn't come with iLife and I did my research and it says that it should have come with it! What should I do? Should I take it back and tell them that it didn't come with it? Because now it's making me pay for each of them and they're really expensive!

    If Virgin promised to include what used to be the iLife apps, they should have given you a code which you then enter in the App Store to download and install the apps free of charge. So, you might want to contact them again, indeed.

  • Is Tiger retail 10.4 install DVD suposed to come with ilife?

    Hi,
    Just bought a secondhand version of retail 10.4. Tiger to install on my Powerbook, G4 1.33ghz (only 1 GB RAM as other RAM doesn't work) - as i wanted a better imovie and garageband performance than my panther ones. I have installed it and was under the impression that it was 'all in' like on panther, but there isn't any ilife! Even tho the manual talks about it as if they were part of the package. Have i been ripped off? should there have been abother disc in the box or does it just NOT come with ilife?! I tried to open the panther install discs so that i could get the old garageband etc but it seems like i have to install oSX 10.3. to get to the apps...I'm so lost- is there anything i can do or do i have to go and buy an ilife from 2005/6 - if so what do i look for? and is it worth it?!
    Thanks

    Have i been ripped off?
    No.
    should there have been abother disc in the box or does it just NOT come with ilife?
    It doesn't come with iLife except for the free iTunes.
    I tried to open the panther install discs so that i could get the old garageband etc but it seems like i have to install oSX 10.3. to get to the apps
    Mac OS X 10.3 retail doesn't include GarageBand. If those disks came with the PowerBook, perform a custom installation of it.
