Creativity made easy

Photos, movies, music — however you express yourself, the new iLife â€™11 from Apple is here to help. Alongside improvements to Appleâ€™s classic software to make creating incredible projects like photo albums, movie trailers, and songs easier, youâ€™ll also find enhancements that make sharing them with friends easier as well. With new full-screen modes, you can create without distraction.

iPhoto

Photos capture those moments you want to treasure forever, and iPhoto helps you to organize, fix, and share those moments. Keep track and organize your photos by using Faces to sort by people, Places to sort by location, or by the event they were taken during. Fix and edit your photos easily using automatic filters to adjust exposure, brightness, or remove red-eye, manually crop your photos, or choose from one of several popular effects such as sepia tones or edge blurs. Finally, share your creations by uploading them to Facebook, sending them via e-mail, creating a themed slideshow, or ordering a physical book or letterpress cards — all without leaving the program.

iMovie

Remember the old days of sharing videos: watching through hours of unedited vacation footage for that one brief moment of excitement during the trip, while uneven audio forces you to change the volume on your television continuously to avoid deafening your friends and family? With iMovie, you can put those days behind you. Simple editing allows you to cut out the parts you donâ€™t want easily, and even allows you to fix clips of minor problems like camera shake. Add effects easily by using the effect collections to create slow motion, freeze frames, and more. Sound is also easier to manage, allowing you to edit multiple streams of audio to turn the volume up on quiet clips, or down on overly loud ones, giving you the ability to create even levels of sound all the way through. New features like a trailer creator, as well as movie themes, make creating interesting movies simple, and sharing is as simple as using built-in exporting to popular video services such as Facebook, Vimeo, or YouTube.

GarageBand

Create, learn, and share your music. With GarageBand, you can create your own mixes, and even edit them to steady your beats and get all your tracks into the same rhythm with the new Flex Time and Groove Matching feature. Connect a USB keyboard or guitar and record directly into the program. With new music lessons, you can download lessons to teach you to play instruments like the piano and guitar, and feedback lets you know mistakes youâ€™ve made, and keeps track of your improvement. Share your new musical talent by creating MP3s, ringtones, or CD-quality AIFFs.

Classic iLife

In addition to upgraded versions of older programs, all your favorites are still here as well: create and update dynamic, fun web pages using iWeb. Create the best in shareable DVDs, incorporating music and interactive menus to give movies youâ€™ve burned to DVD a personal touch.
