Hi,


Try this procedure to obtain the highest version of iMovie that your operating system will run:


To update/redownload iMovie 10, drag youriMovie 10 app from the Applications folder into the trash, but do not empty the trash. (You can skip that step if you had iMovie 10 on your computer before,but deleted it.) Sign in to the app store and open your purchases folder by clicking on your name at the bottom of the app store side bar. You will see your purchases displayed, including iMovie 10. Redownload/update iMovie from there with the little cloud icon next to iMovie. If not successful, drag your present iMovie app out of the trash (if you moved it

there) and return it to the Applications folder.
