iMovie help. Has anyone successfully opened iMovies from the app from the early 2000's in the new iMovie 10.1.16?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.12
If you are talking about iMovie 6 and earlier, those versions cannot be updated into iMovie 10. You would need the old app to open the projects. For iMovie 7 and later you can update the projects and events into iMovie 10 by doing a File/Update Projects and Events from within iMovie 10.

If you still have your start up discs for when you purchased your old Mac you can download iMovie 6 or iMovie 5 from there.
If you do not have your original discs, you might be able to acquire iMovie 6 as part of the iLife 6 package from a 3rd party vendor like Amazon or ebay. For example:

Thanks. I spoke to Apple tech. They told me the same thing. They gave me a suggestion to work to convert some single clips. I will then re-create the projects. Live and learn!
How can I open my iMovies on 10.1.16 that I created on the old iMovie? None of the Mac suggestions are working
