After the update to this version:
1) Can no longer see the titles of movies in a library --only shows dates
2) No longer shows titles and transitions of movies I had done in the past

Hi,
Deleting preferences is a harmless procedure that, in any event, affects only the iMovie application and not the libraries that contain you projects. You projects would not disappear unless your libraries were previously corrupted (which certainly might be the case in light of the issues you have been experiencing).
To get back your projects go to the iMovie Backups folder. To get there, follow this file path: Go/Home/Library/Caches/iMovie Backups. (If you don't see "Library" after clicking on Home, hold down the Option key while clicking.) In the Backups folder you will see a list of backups of your libraries. Open the library dated just before you started having issues. iMovie will open in that library. You should be able to retrieve all of your projects in the Projects browser view, as long as the original media still exists.
Another way is to restore your library from your Time Machine backup, if you have one.

Did as you suggested--now all the movies in my previous libraries are gone, except for the one shown
Rich--all seems good
Is there a way to move the new event in Project 1 to my main Project below?
Thanks again.
Link doesn't work
Link worked and thanks again
You are welcome. Sorry for the bad link initially.

Hi,
Try opening iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and selecting to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects. See if that solves it.

Yes, you can merge events. Here's a Help link that will show you how:
