I cannot show anymore itunes audio in imovie 10.1.13.
My mp3 are on the notebook not in the cloud.
As suggested in some posts I resetted imovie deleting preference but nothing changed.
Yesterday I started using apple music for the first time.
Any suggestion?
MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.14
Apple Music cannot be used in iMovie. First, it is a subscription service. Second, all songs in it carry copyright protection. Even downloading Apple Music into iTunes does not clear the songs of copyright protection. You can still purchase songs from iTunes, however, and these will be DRM (copyright protection) free.

My songs are stored in my ITunes library, they showed up since last week.
I already tried to redownloading imovie, but nothing changed.
Maybe I found the solution.
In the application support iLifemediabrowser library folder there were some plug-ins files that were probably corrupted.
After I restored them from a time machine backup, iMovie seems to work fine now.
Could it have been the reason why I coudn't show up the iTunes songs?
Thanks

iTunes was removed from the iLife package some years ago. The iLife iDVD and iPhoto apps have been discontinued and are no longer for sale. The Photos app has been bundled with the OS since Yosemite and is not part of iLife. I believe that iMovie and Garageband are the only apps left in iLife.
When you say that your Mp3 songs are stored on your notebook, do you mean that they are stored in a Finder folder separate from iTunes or that they are stored in your iTunes library? If they are stored in your iTunes library they should show up in the iTunes item in the iMovie sidebar, unless they are copyright protected. If they are stored in a Finder folder they wouldn't appear.
You might try redownloading iMovie.

Thanks for the reply.
I don't wont to use neither apple music nor copyrights songs.
I want to continue using my mp3 songs stored on my notebook as I always did until last week.
Is there any relation between Itunes and Imovie andh Ilife ?
Because I had some issue with and update of ilife.

Hi fabriza96,
Due to copyright and music rights protection, iTunes music cannot be taken into iMovie. You can, however, download music off YouTube, though it is recommended that you have your firewall on. YouTube and other websites also have great sound libraries with loads of non-copyright tracks.
Hope this helps,
Mike
Good work! Absent any indication of another cause, apparently the plug-ins were causing the problem, since it now works after restoring the plug-ins. My iLifemediabrower folder contains no plug-ins, though I am running Mojave.
