    lRocke,

     

    Please re-post in the iMovie forum. If your machine is still covered by AppleCare, you can call them too. Apple does not publish error code messages. As for your work, if you have been backing up (and there is NO excuse not to) then your work is safe.

    If you haven't already done so, restart and try again. If an application won't quit and prevents restarting, force quit. As a last resort, force a shutdown by holding down the power button for a few seconds. Then press it again briefly to start up.
