Yosemite and Essentials

I am typing on my first mac. It is a 2012 Mac Mini with upgrades. It has Yosemite on it, but I don't see the Essentials programs anywhere. Is there a way to locate them, and/or download them if they weren't downloaded originally?

What are "essentials" programs?

Maybe that's not what the package is called? I believe it is the programs such as iMovie, and the various office programs.

Should be in your LaunchPad.

Hi Dave, nothing like that is showing in LaunchPad. If I reinstall Yosemite, would it also include the free programs?
I'm thinking the person I purchased this from chose not to install everything.

Nevermind. I just assumed iLife was installed with all Yosemite OS's. That's not the case. I need to purchase it.

Hello - Yosemite comes w/ a lot of features and apps - check HERE, but certain apps still need to be purchased (at rather low costs IMO), such as the iWork Suite (Pages, Numbers, & Keynote) - worth the price, if needed - Dave
