Mac Users only - FREE iWork / Aperture

[MrSuperb]

This apparently only works with OS X 10.9 (which is completely free though)

 

 

1) Just download the trial of iWork 09 and/or Aperture (can't be found on Apple.com unfortunately after they realized that error )

2) Go to the App Store and press update

3) done - iWork'13 / Aperture for free

 

!!!! NO NEED FOR ANY KIND OF SERIAL OR ANYTHING ILLEGAL !!!!

Notes: Might need to change you system to 'english' and location to 'US'

iWork is free if you upgrade to 10.9 anyway. I just want Aperture

@Nicholas Marzio, what kind of Mac do you have? I myself have a 13" MacBook Air (2012). I think next time though I would go for the 11" just because I like the 16:9 AR. But at the time I bought mine it was for TAFE study so the 13" was more practical. Though I must say that I'm typing this on a 9.7" iPad 4 and I don't find it too small, however I de realise the MBA 11" screen res is 1366 x 768 so who knows. Overall though, no regrets at all. Love the speedy little machine, faster than my 6-year old desktop (haha).

Can't find a working iWork 09 trial nor a Aperture trial.

Rolling on a Hackintosh OS X 10.8.5 and a Virtual Box of 10.8.4 for fast access. I should be picking up a Power mac G5 in the next few days to tinker around with it. I am also looking at getting a MacBook Pro 15-inch with Retina display.

Be sure to allo unsigned apps in the security settings

1) Install the trial.

2) Then open App Store and go to updates page.

For aperture you can also download the update

and extract the .app file with Pacifist (a shareware app).

The copy the .app into you application folder.

Oh! A Hackintosh hey, didn't see that coming . That Power Mac G5 shall be interesting to tinker with. As for getting a RBP, I would love to get one of those, unfortunately my brain thinks a better PC can be had for the price of one of those.

[ERSCreeper]

Sweet got them all on download now to wait around 7+ hours.

But updating my hackintosh wasn't really that hard either :lol:

iWork is definitely not for free on old macs without this workaround 

You might have had installed an old version of iWork at your workplace.
