If you uninstall then re-install imovie do you loose all your projects/events?
Reinstalling iMovie will most likely not help with anything. If you have never performed any system maintenance, do it now: Open Disk Utility, select your hard drive and click on Repair Disk Permissions. When it's done, click on Validate Disk. If the validation fails with a red-colored warning, boot from the Mac OS X installation DVD, launch Disk Utility from there (Utilities menu) and click on Repair Disk. When done, launch iMovie to check if the problem is gone. If it still persist, go to the next step: Your event clips and movie project are stored in the iMovie folders within your Movies folder. Go there and trash all files that are not movie files, still images, or project files, i.e trash all cache files and thumbnail files. Then go to your user home folder (the one with the little house icon) and navigate down to the folder Library/Preferences/. Here you trash all files that have the word 'iMovie' in the filename. Now launch iMovie again to see if it's getting better (iMovie will take some time create new thumbnails etc.). If the problem appears again, consider removing the last event clips that you added before the problems started, and/or remove the whole project. You can drag them out of their folders in the Finder respectively. This way you can isolate a possibly corrupted video file that may be causing the problems. Also, check, if you have enough (meaning at least 50 GB) of hard drive space left. BTW Your youtube video is blocked by UMG in my country.
My iMovie won't let me use my iTunes library?

My friend sent me an iMovie "project" file, Can I open it on my Windows 7 Laptop?
The project file can't be opened with anything else but the same iMovie version on a Mac. I bet your friend also didn't send the necessary source clips with it… Ask him to export the movie in iMovie using Share->Export… He should then choose a size that is not larger than the source files' sizes, otherwise the image quality will be degraded… The exported movie is going to be a .M4V (=MPEG-4) file with H.264 compression. It should open in Windows Media Player ok. If it doesn't, change the filename extension to .MP4 and try again. If you have iTunes and Quicktime, it's going to open right away.
I have iMovie and saved it in iTunes, where is it displayed in iTunes?
If I understand you correctly, you made a project in iMovie then Share > iTunes... ? 1. Look in iTunes > Recently added. 2. Look in iTunes > Movies Otherwise look in your User/Movies folders. Click on the Finder Face in your dock and from the window that opens click on the folder called Movies. Next click on the folder called iMovie Sharing and that is where your movie should be. If it's there and not in iTunes, just drag the file into iTunes. Z.
Can I import music onto iMovie without having to buy it on iTunes?
Yes, but….There are several legal ways to bring music into iTunes for listening, and almost all the music you put into iTunes can be imported into iMovie. You can buy tracks on iTunes Store; you can rip them from your CDs; you can buy them on Amazon as MP3, or one Google Play Store, or any other online download store. Also, you can subscribe to Apple Music and download any song you wish.You can use music bought through any of these methods in iMovie, except the tracks you downloaded through Apple Music. Because Apple Music is a rental model, the tracks are protected by the digital rights management (DRM) encryption, which cannot be imported into iMovie. Same goes for tracks downloaded on Spotify.Short answer: you can use tracks you own (iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, CD). You cannot use tracks you rent (Apple Music, Spotify).Ripping music from YouTube is illegal in most of the world.
Can you edit an IMOVIE video again after exporting it?
Export your project via the Share menu then you can re-import it as a new event and start editing again. If you do not export it, you have to move both the project and the events that make it up. Also if you have music from iTunes or photos from iPhoto that makes it even more difficult. Regards, Zyfert

How do you put audio from Audacity onto iMovie?
I have never used Audacity but I would think that you would export the file from Audacity as an mp3 then import that into your iTunes. Once it's there then open iMovie and click on the musical note button centre right of your screen which will open an iTunes window. This is the tutorial of what to do then: http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#im... Regards, Zyfert

It is impossible to play iTunes Rentals on a TV screen (not using Apple TV) directly.There are many limitations of iTunes movie rentals. If you rented the movie on your computer, but want to watch it on an iOS device, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library.
