My IMovie over the past two months has slowly declined in usability- from thumbnails, audio ripped from video, to event footage even playing, everything is effectively ceasing to work. Updated IMovie, New mac. Any suggestions?
I've had and have been successfully using IMovie for six months now, but in the past one or two months, it's started to slowly decline in it's usability. First, no thumbnails would work, in the project library or in the event clips. three weeks ago, i tried stabilizing a clip, and changing the speed, imovie not only corrupted that file, but stopped functioning entirely. I had to go into the finder and remove the project (under googles suggestion) for imovie to even begin to function again. Then i stopped being able to rip audio tracks from video inside projects. And a week ago, i stopped being able to play video from the event clips. I don't know what the **** i'm supposed to do with imovie now that i can't do with Youtube's on board editor. haha.
I'm not terribly experienced with Macs, but i'm familiar with technology and can usually trouble shoot things, either by myself using common sense, or good ol' trusty Google. Which has led me here, since my issue seems to be more with the software getting old and crippled (in a human sense) than any issue with my knowledge or trouble shooting. If you could even direct me where to go to solve this issue, that in itself would be a great help.
