Moving an iMovie project from an old mac to a new one using a USB flash drive
I’m having trouble moving an iMovie project from an old mac to a new one using a USB flash drive.
On my old mac, I copied the project folder from inside the iMovie Library and pasted it onto the flash drive. Then I downloaded that file on my new mac. As far as I can tell, all the files that I need are still in there, but I can’t get iMovie to recognize it. (i.e., simply putting the new file inside the iMovie Library of my new mac doesn’t work)
Is there a workaround for this?
Some YouTube videos suggested deleting dummy files and letting iMovie “repair library,” it doesn’t seem to work.
I’m using the newest version of iMovie on my new mac, which uses the M1 chip.
MacBook Air (2020 or later)
