Where did you download iLife 11 from?

And who is "they"?

Mac OS X and iLife are two completely separate and distinct products. With that said, Apple does bundle the contemporary version of iLife with new Macs.

But if you reinstalled your operating system, it could very well be missing.

It can be purchased from the Mac App Store and downloaded, but otherwise, it would be installed from the media that came with your Mac. If you bought it used and it didn't come with media, you'll need purchase it.

G'day and welcome to the forums.

And if your computer slows, you will know you have downloaded malware with the pirated iLife. Was a big threat when first released for Pirate Bay downloaders.
