Original Jam Pack, Why won't it work with later versions of GB Options

[BobAdamson]

When GB first came out I bought the first Jam Pack and was amazed at all the additional sounds, instruments, amp simulations, etc. However, I didn't play with it much. Fast Forward to iLife 08 and I decided to start playing again. Bought Symphony and wanted to add some of the stuff I remembered from Jam Pack 1 and now find that it is not recognized by GB 08. Am I doing something wrong? Any workarounds?

Thanks,
Bob Adamson

and if the installer proves to be stubborn and won't let you even install the content there may be a work around. does the cd mount at all> if so see if you can find the content files on it throungh the finder and then drag them to your desktop. alternatively if you still have the old machine you could network them and copy accross or justburn a cd of the old jampacks and transfer them. If all of that fails you may be able to control-click the GB installer icon and if it has the option to 'show package contents' in the contextual menu that appears select that. Installers are after all just a set of files and an install script that tell your computer where to put everything; so the Jampacks should be inside somewhere. This last option is a bit fiddly but if you want them that bad then it shouldn't be too difficult to find them. you may find a 'Content' file or 'Package' that requires you to control-click again to get inside it.

GOOD LUCK
