Projects are stored in events (??) So where are they?
I find the way that events and projects are organized in iMovie 10 to be rather incomprehensible. I couldn't even get started (although I'm an old iMovie hand) until I bought "iMovie: The Missing Manual" by Pogue.
In that book he says that projects are stored in events. This doesn't make much sense to me; in earlier versions of iMovie projects were stored in their own separate area, which made a lot of sense because projects (at least mine) were generally made up of clips spanning many events, so it wouldn't have made sense to store them in one of those events. In any case, in iMovie 10, in what sense are projects stored in events? I made a new event, and imported some video. Now I want to make a project using this video. I made sure this event was selected, then chose File/New Movie... to make a new movie (which is the same as a project, I think). When I did this, there was no way to force the new movie (or project) to be stored in the event I just made. So where is it?
According to Pogue, if I open a project, then a movie "clapper" icon is supposed to appear next to the event in which the project is stored, but I don't see any such icon. If I go to my event, there's no icon or any other link to the project I just made. As far as I can can tell, all projects are just stored in one large flat "folder", which is visible when I go to the Projects screen.
What am I missing?
