Can I do this?

[Mort Jr]

I'm going to get snow leopard, but I don't feel like buying ilife, can I just get it back from time machine?

You currently have Leopard? You currently have iLife?

Then buy Snow Leopard and upgrade, all your apps with still be there.

Are you planning a clean install or upgrade?

Your Mac came with two install disks, OS X and Applications. Use the application disk to reinstall iLife after you've installed SL

More info

I'm upgrading. My mac crashed a while ago, and they updated everything, including ilife, they put imovie HD on it, and I like it a lot better than the imovie I had before, so if I installed the one on the disc, if I have that disc, than it wont be the same.

as long as you're just doing a straight-forward upgrade (the default way to install SL), your ilife will be the same, as will all the rest of your apps, data, profiles, settings, etc.
