Lately, I've been editing and making videos for a local church in Mexico. I am not selling any of the videos. The are free to watch. However, is it permissible to upload a video with music, sound effects, and video effects from imovie? I using imovie version 10.0.2
iMovie '11
This post may help you as well.
As I was doing reserch on the the license agreement form, I found a statement stating the opposite that imovie can't be used for commerical use. Now, does this statment still apply for videos being uploaded on youtube for non-profit reasons?
Section 2.A.i
"to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple
Software directly on each Apple-branded computer running OS X (“Mac Computer”) that you
own or control"
I don't think so, but I am not a lawyer. If you need legal advice, I suggest that you consult a lawyer.

in human-lingo, meant is, you're not allowed to share commercially an Apple computer for the purpose to make iMovie available to persons who are not owners of a licence...
example:
1 neighbour purchases iMovie and installs it on his MacBook, and for 5$/d he 'shares' his Mac to all the other 22 households in the street = verboten 😉
all content is 'free' to use - my humble understanding of the ToU/EUL ... 😁
This question comes up from time to time.
There are a number of con-men who think that they can earn a quick buck from claiming that they own the copyright to Apple’s royalty-free jingles and sound effects included with the iLife applications. These are all free to use, as clearly stated in section 2.C of the iLife Software License Agreement:
“You may use the Apple and third party audio content (“Audio Content”) contained in or otherwise included with the Apple software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original soundtracks for your video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual samples, sound sets, or audio content may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound files, sound effects or music beds.”

You should quote this (also providing the above link) when following any dispute process with YouTube.
