Abort the install and try installing again. If you already have iMovie on your Mac, drag it from the Applications folder to the trash, but do not empty the trash. Then try the reinstall. If no luck, drag your present iMovie app out of the trash and back into the Applications folder.


Also, make sure that you have sufficient free disk space on your internal drive to allow the installation. 10 GB free space should be sufficient.
