Q: imovie won't work.....
Hello!
So for some reason when I open iMovie it just ends up being a white screen.... I NEED HELP PLEASE on how to fix this I tried logging in and out and re-opening iMovie and it doesn't work. I even tried logging into other user accounts on my mac to see if iMovie works, but i doesn't .
I have the old mac computer the 2008 white macbook. I have mavericks on it. The things is, is that iMovie has worked BEFORE (like the new 10.10 version) but now for some reason it just doesn't work. I don't know if it's because of the mavericks software or what. I just need help on how to fix this.
Also when I press "create" on iMovie it shows the different themes, so that part works, but the rest of iMovie is just plain white.
Please Help
Thanks!
MacBook, Old white macbook

Thank you for the update. If the issue is happening on another user ( like you did for the previous issue ) then I would highly recommend deleting and reinstalling iMovie:
OS X Yosemite: Install, update, and uninstall apps
Apps downloaded from the Mac App Store: Click the Launchpad icon in the Dock, hold down an app’s icon until all the icons begin to jiggle, then click an app’s delete button
. If you later want the app, you can reinstall it from the Mac App Store.
If an icon doesn’t have a delete button, it can’t be uninstalled in Launchpad. For more information about Launchpad, see Use Launchpad to view and open apps.
Then restart your computer, and re download iMovie from the App Store.
