    Has anyone else had an issue where the 4K from your iPhone 6S or SE completely locks up iMovie? I have a mid-2014 Mac 15" with decent specs (benchmarks from Geekbench here) but when I go to edit or try to play the MOV file from my iPhone, I just get the spinning pinwheel and the entire program...

    New iMovie 10 Library conversion

    My old iMac, which had an older version of iMovie, died recently. I got a new iMac which came with iMovie 10. I hadn't updated the old one since the reviews for iMovie 10 were not so favorable. I don't do a ton of video editing, btw. Anyway, welcome to iMovie 10. The first thing it does is...

    Simple Yet Professional & Slick Blu-ray Creation Software?

    I've already asked something similar to this a while ago, but I thought I may try and rephrase my questions and what I am looking for. Anyway... I am planning to take on a personal Blu-ray project (that takes on as close to the look and feel of an actual, physical, Blu-ray release you'd pick-up...

    iMac & Software for Blu-ray editing?

    Hey everyone, Sorry if this comes off as a bit newbish, but that's what it kind of is. My iMac is from 2008 and it has become kind of a dinosaur and is pretty much no good for anything more than managing iTunes and surfing the web. Editing and creating video projects, etc. has become a big...

    Hi, so my iMovie has all of a sudden stopped working as it has been. Recently I've been making several videos a week (for about 6months) that vary between 5 - 30 mins, and iMovie has been perfect. The last video I edited and exported using iMovie was 3 days ago. No problems. Today, I wake up...

    iMovie, Plugins?

    Good Day Folks, I was just wondering if there any decent plugins for iMovie? If so, are they worth using, or should I explore other options if I wish to get a more robust video editing experience? Right now I don't really have the cash to spend on a $300+ video editor such as Final Cut. If the...
