Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

the differences between Events, Projects and those in the iMovie Library.

Wish there were a tutorial. Cannot figure out difference between Events and an iMovie. I have 90 minute clips to keep straightened out.

Hi there Marcy,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.


The iMovie Help document below should answer your questions about the differences between projects and events in iMovie.

Organize the library - iMovie Help


Organize the library


Whenever you import video footage into your library, iMovie automatically places the clips into events, based on the date and time the video footage was recorded. Events are like folders that contain your clips and the projects you create with them. Despite their initial time-based grouping, you can use events to group clips, trailers, and movies any way you like.


When you select an event in the Libraries list, the clips and projects it contains appear in the browser. You can double-click a movie or trailer project to open it, and you can select clips or portions of clips to add them to your movie or trailer.


So long.
