audio draggin instead of stretching

Hi, mae-yin,

To drag your audio clip, place your cursor somewhere in the clip other than on the edge, and, while pressing down, slide the clip along the timeline.

Try expanding your timeline with the slider located above the timeline to the right. That often helps when working with audio clips.

I cannot replicate the issue that you describe. I added an audio clip to a project and trimmed the clip at the beginning and end. When I dragged the clip the wave forms shifted around. However, after I dragged the clip and then played it from beginning to end my trims were preserved just where I made them.

Since that isn't happening in your situation, try deleting preferences. To delete preferences, open iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and select to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects. Deleting preferences is a safe procedure that will not cause data loss or disruption to your project. Now see if your sound clips are playing properly.

Another thing that you can try is to create a new project and do your project there to see if that cures the problem.
