Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I've been trying to export 2 videos I made in iMovie to my desktop (one is 8min long and the other is 5) and no matter what I do it immediately says that the export has failed. I've tried restarting my laptop, resetting the preferences, and clearing out space on the computer. Is there any explanation as to why they won't save to my desktop??

Try upgrading or doing a fresh install of your OS, plus an updating of your iMovie app. That worked for one recent poster, who upgraded to Mojave and the updated to iMovie 10.1.14. Try just updating iMovie first.

You did not mention, but based on posts by others on this forum you may be experiencing
the CompressorKit error message.
If so, the Compressor Kit Error message has been reported with increasing frequency
of late. No universal fix so far. The fix that has worked the most has been
starting up in Safe Mode (see Finder menu for instructions) and then after everything
loads immediately shutting down and rebooting in normal mode.
Here's a link, though older, that pretty much describes where we are today
with the Compressor Kit Error:

There may be some proposed solutions in the above link that will work for
you.
All else failing, try calling Apple Support. The techs there are very savvy
and also have the capability of remotely accessing your computer. Click on the
Contact Support item in the upper right hand corner of this screen and navigate
to a box that will ask for your telephone number so that Apple Support can call
you back. I think that the file path is Contact Support/Mac OS/Applications/iMovie,
or somthing like that.
Good luck with this. If you have time, post back with your results, as it
may assist others who have this perplexing issue.
