iMovie, not enough disk space

Everytime i try to import media into iMovie, it says not enough disk space, even though i have about 350GB free.

Do you know how to solve this issue?

Hi, hannahelstone,


A solution that has worked is to redownload iMovie.


To update/redownload iMovie 10, drag your iMovie 10 app from the Applications

folder into the trash, but do not empty the trash. Sign in to the app

store and open your purchases folder by clicking on your name at the bottom of

the app store side bar. You will see your purchases displayed, including iMovie 10.

Redownload/update iMovie from there. If not successful, drag your present iMovie

app out of the trash and return it to the Applications folder.


Now see if the "not enough disk space" issue is solved.
