iMovie 10 Won't Create New Movie

iMovie '10 won't allow me to create a new file. The New Movie button is greyed out.


I've re-set prefs and re-started.


There seem to be a few different options.


Any tips? Thanks.

You cannot create a new project when you are already in a project. Exit your project and the New Movie item should be active.


The way most people create a project is to click on the project button at the top or top left of your screen to opne the project browser (where your projects are displayed as icons). At the top left of the project browser screen there is a large icon, titled "Create New", with a + sign in it. Click on that to get a drop down menu that has options to create a trailer or a movie.
