Importing movies from Photos 1.0.1 to iMovie 11 9.0.4

Can some one advise me how to import movies held in Photos onto iMovie ??


When i try to import through - File, Import, Movies - it doesn't allow me to find Photos and subsequently the movies contained in Photos.


Do the two programs talk to each other ???


I'm using Photos 1.0.1 and iMovie 11 9.0.4.


Thanks

"the section 'Use as System Photo Library' is greyed out"

I think this means that your library is is already the system library.


My comments where for iMovie 10 and I have just noticed hat you are using iMovie '11 (version 9) - which predates the Photos application so I am doubtful whether iMovie 9 is "aware" of Photos. I don't use Photos and no longer have iMovie 9 so I can't check this.


I think you may have to locate your photos in the finder and import them into iMovie from there. I'm sorry I can't be of more help.
