Is there anyway to rip the ilife suite from a Macbook OS X install disc? I get a "This bundled software cannot be installed on this computer" error.

Thanks

Yep. It's a piecemeal install method, but there is a huge chance it might not work. Note this is done for informational purposes and in no way am I proposing or endorsing copyright infringement.

1. Have it show the package contents.

2. Copy the archive file to your most convenient place.

3. Open that file up.

4. Depending on the critter, you'll either find more packages (repeat the process) or you'll find what you need to copy through.

5. Drag those items to the EXACT PLACE requested in the folders. The enclosing folders will tell you exactly where to drag them. Be careful, because some will prompt you to go into the guts of the application (show the package contents on that specific application).

6. Reboot the computer and if it runs, it will run wonderfully.

iLife '07? Is that like some rare beta of '08 that none of us have seen? Please share. biggrin.gif

iLife '07? If you mean '08 or '06, you can install it using Pacifist.
Just insert your Apple DVD, click on open Apple Installation DVD, select
iLife and the select on install, it will be installed directly without checking
the system.
