iMovie saying disk full (>20GB available) when trying to reimport media
Hi,
I have an iMovie project from about a year ago that I am trying to finish. I have the iMovie library for this project saved on an external hard drive but whenever I try to open it and see the videos inside it, it says "filename" is missing, to reimporting the original source media. I then try to import the videos from the extern"al hard drive and it says there is not enough disk space at the selected location, even though I have over 20GB free on my MacBook and the videos are only a few hundred MB.
I have also tried going into the package contents of the iMovie library, going into the original media folder and then trying to link the original media back to the alias media but it gives me error code -36.
What can I do to get these media back into the iMovie library and therefore the project???
Thanks
