I am using imovie 10.1.16 I am trying to export my imovie but the error message reads "This item cannot be shared while it is still referencing media on the camera."
I have deleted the clips and attempted to download them again but this does not seem to work.
The export to theatre option is no longer available. What can I do?
Kind Regards

Hi, jimmybav,
The "still referencing media on the camera" notification can happen when the import was terminated before it had a chance to complete. Try waiting a bit longer before unplugging the camera or removing the memory card.
If waiting longer for the import to complete doesn't solve it, try using the Image Capture app on your Mac to import the clips directly to your Mac desktop instead of iMovie. You can then drag the clips from your desktop into iMovie. Another way is to import into the Photos app and then accessing the media from media Photos item in the sidebar of an iMovie project.
