Hello OskeeWeeWee,


You state you are using iMovie '11 (version 9) with the new Photos. With iMovie (2013) there is a sidebar that offers Photos. Given that, you may want to try the alternate method of drag and drop via the Desktop.

Drag and drop from the Desktop

You can drag photos from your Desktop and drop them into iMovie:

  1. Drag the photo you’d like to use from Photos to your Desktop.
  2. Drag the photo from the Desktop to the Timeline in your iMovie project.

Best regards
