Before you begin, make sure to back up your iMovie libraries, your media, and the iMovie app.

IMovie is free to download and use for all Mac users. 6 Click the green INSTALL APP button. You can find it next to the iMovie icon after clicking GET. I have a 2008 MacBook that is unable to update past OSX Lion (10.7.5). I had to restore OSX last year. I haven't needed to use iMovie since I did the restore, and so hadn't bothered to download it from the App Store again. Anyway, I needed it earlier this week, but when I tried to download it. Click the GET button next to iMovie. The iMovie icon looks like a purple star with a white camera in it. It should be the top result in the search. The GET button will turn into a green INSTALL APP button. IMovie is free to download and use for all Mac users.

Try these troubleshooting steps in order

After trying each step below, test iMovie again to see if you've fixed your issue.

Reset NVRAM

If you use an external device with iMovie like a camera, reset NVRAM:

1. Shut down your Mac.
2. Disconnect all external devices other than your keyboard and your mouse.
3. Reset NVRAM.
4. Open iMovie and attempt to reproduce your issue.
   • If iMovie works, reconnect devices one at a time until you can reproduce your issue. Restart your Mac after reconnecting a device if the device requires it.
   • If iMovie still doesn't work, you might need to update your device's firmware or have the device serviced.

Update macOS and iMovie

Choose Apple menu  > App Store, then click Updates. If an iMovie update is available, click Update to download and install it.

Check camera and media format compatibility

Make sure you're using a camera and media format that works with iMovie. If you can't find your camera listed or need further assistance, contact the manufacturer of the device for support.

If you're using a third-party video interface with your Mac, check with the manufacturer for firmware or other software updates for your device.

Test with a new library and project

You can create a new library and test project to check if the issue is with your library, project, or iMovie app. First, create a new library:

1. Quit iMovie.
2. While you press and hold the Option key, click the iMovie app in the Dock or double-click the iMovie app in the Applications folder.
3. In the Open Library window, click New to create a new library.
4. Name the test library 'Test iMovie Library,' then save it to the Desktop.

Next, create the test project using a built-in trailer template, then export it as a QuickTime video file:

1. In iMovie, click Projects to return to the Projects view.
2. Choose File > New Trailer, click the Action trailer template, then click Create.
3. Choose File > Share > File, click Next, name the file 'Finish Line,' then save the video file to the Desktop.

Next, import the QuickTime video file into a new project in the new library:

1. Click projects to return to the Projects view. In the window, click OK.
2. Choose File > New Movie.
3. Choose File > Import Media, then click Desktop in the Import window sidebar. Select the 'Finish Line.mov' file in the list, then click the Import Selected button.
4. Select the clip in the browser, then press the E key to add the clip to the timeline.
5. Try to recreate the issue you were having. For example, if iMovie quit when adding a transition, try to add a transition to the timeline.

If the new library and project work as expected, you've isolated the cause of your issue to the original library or project. Try to restore a previous version of the original library from a Time Machine or other backup.
