How do I access my videos in iMovie Theater?

I saved all the videos I made into iMovie Theater and I want to access them to move them into iPhotos as the Theatre has been discontinued. The support pages say in iMovie, choose Window > Go to Theater” but in the version of iMovie I have on my Mac, there is no "choose Window > Go to Theater” option. What am I missing?! Thanks

Hi,


You are not missing anything. My iMovie version does not have the “Go to Theater” option either, although it did at one time. For some reason it disappeared.


To access your Theater movies go to your Theater folder located in the Movies folder (Go/Home/Movies). Control-click on the Theater folder icon, and select Show Package contents. You will see several Archives folders. The Archives folders contain your movies. You can copy-drag (copy, not move) your movies onto your desk top, or directly into your iPhotos app.
