Installed Mavericks and the subsequent iMovie update.
Bad news: my iMovie events and projects do not appear in the new version of iMovie
Good news: The old version of iMovie is still present and works fine.
Any idea how to get the events and projects into the new version?
"File>Update Projects and Events" does not work; result is "iMovie could not find any projects or events to update".
"File>Update Projects and Events" does not work; result is "iMovie could not find any projects or events to update".
I figured it out. There was a file called "UpdatedToiMovie10" in my projects folder. When I deleted that and restarted the new iMovie, I was then able to select "File>Update Projects and Events" successfully.
I tried the solution you posted, but iMovie keeps crashing!
I have an issue along these lines. I updated to Imovie 10.0 and updated my projects and events. My problem is that the files themselves did not update but I can see everything just fine in the Imovie interface. I need to share the project file with a collegue who also has version 10.0 and it won't open because the file is only compatible with the old version. There don't seem to be any project files even when I start a new project either. I deleted that file listed above but the files themselves didn't update. Any help on this would be much appreciated.
DO NOT DO THIS. ITJUST DELETED ALL MY PROJECTS!
All: are you just looking for files from within iMovie? Where are your iMovie Event/Project folders in the Finder? (default user/Movies/iMovie...)
Did you do a Finder search for iMovie? Go to Finder/Find (not Spotlight) and search for Name>Contains>iMovie. Then click ONCE on a file that you couldn't find. At the bottom of the search window you will find the path (username>Movies>iMovie Events>youreventname> etc. etc.)
There's probably something that needs to be relinked to the new version of iMovie. I doubt that any files have been deleted; if they have, they will be in the Trash.
