Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My son created a documentary using iMovie for is school project due today. After clearing space on his iPhone he still cannot share the file via iCloud Drive (2T). If I back up his phone onto my desktop, is this an option to access the project file then attempt to compress the file do he can share it? We are desperate and would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Hi, maureen,
I'm not sure about the procedure that you describe. Not something I have done.
However, the easiest way would be to enable AirDrop on both devices and then transfer the iMovie for iPhone project, or the video from it, from the iPhone to your Mac. It would appear in the Downloads folder on your Mac. The iPhone AirDrop export option has options to export the project itself or the video. If you export the project itself you could open it on your Mac iMovie app as a project (double click on it in the Downloads folder) , and share it out from iMovie for Mac. For AirDrop to work both devices must be located within 30 feet of each other.
