Good afternoon
I was browsing the inside of my Macbook Air in Finder and I just realized that two iMovie exists.
I managed to take three screenshots for you to tell me what I can do with one of them, which one should I completely delete (if so) and how?...and why two iMovies are in my Mac?
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11)
I will request that your query be relocated to the iMovie forum where knowledgeable iMovie users will be able to assist you.
Ciao.
I thank you, but how can I relocate my post?
It has been relocated. Wait for responses from the iMove experts.

The one withe mauve star icon is iMovie version 10. When you upgraded from iMovie 9 it left a copy in the folder. You can still use either version. Projects and events in iMovie 9 can be upgraded to iMovie 10 from within iMovie 10. This way you can try out iMovie 10 then decide whether you want to switch to using it or stay with iMovie 9. iMovie 10 is very different and has removed support for some features and for some older camera hardware and is less friendly for those who want to burn DVDs. If you switch to iMovie 10 and transfer all projects and events from iMovie 9 over you can delete the iMovie 9 application folder as well as your iMovie events and iMovie projects folders. iMovie 10 will have moved everything into a library with the the extension .imovielibrary.

You are indeed very kind GeeD to help a grand ma.
Since I have already iMovie 10 installed in my Mac, I want to erase the old version of iMovie.
So, from my poor understandings, to delete that program in Mac, I will do the following, right?
Click Finder
Click Applications
Click iMovie 9.0.9 (the blue folder) and drag it to the trash bin
Am I correct dear?
PS: I have no movies created yet with iMovie, so no projects are into existence.
In Finder click Go > Applications and drag folder to trash. It may ask you enter your administrator password.

I thank you and happy holidays.
Glad to help.
2 iMovie
