Go to Finder > Go > Home > Movies. Drag the iMovie <strong>Library<\/strong> folder to the connected external hard drive. Then you can delete the folder from your Mac.<\/p>\n<h2>Why is iMovie library so big?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When you import iMovie version 9 (iMovie 11) projects and events into iMovie version 10, it takes up a little more space, but not a lot. This is because, iMovie 10 uses hard links (similar to the hard links in Time Machine) to point to the physical video files, so they are not duplicated.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can you AirDrop iMovie projects?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Choose where you want to export your movie: To use AirDrop, tap AirDrop, then tap the profile picture of its user at the top of the screen. Or you can use AirDrop between your own Apple devices. To export the movie to your photo library, tap Save Video.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I export an iMovie?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>To export your video, start by clicking on File in the menu bar, hover over Share and then click File.<\/li>\n<li>The Exporting options dialog box will open.  <\/li>\n<li>The size, or resolution, will effect how big your exported file is and how long it takes to export.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where are my iMovie projects stored?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>iMovie will autosave all of its data and assets (video, images, audio) into a library file called iMovie Library in the Movies folder of the computer you are working on for the day. Every time you make a change or add to your project in iMovie, your project will autosave.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Does iMovie get backed up to iCloud?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Your projects will then automatically backup to the online storage service you selected during the move process, and you can access them by using the import feature within iMovie, the Files\/OneDrive apps, or through the iCloud\/OneDrive websites\/apps.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Are iMovie projects stored in iCloud?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>After a few minutes (depending on the size of the project and the speed of your internet connection), the project is shared to iCloud. To verify, go to your Mac and, in the Finder, open the iMovie folder in your iCloud Drive. Before you delete the project from your device, open it in iMovie on the Mac first!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is the difference between event and project in iMovie?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The Event Library workspace and the Project Timeline look similar. The major difference between the two is that you cannot edit in the Event Library workspace. All editing must occur in the Project Timeline. The most you can do in the Event Library is select a certain clip and drag that clip into the Project Timeline.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I manage my iMovie library?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7GvDvzRRTbg\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I organize photos in iMovie?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cgGu5xE1l5E\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where do deleted iMovie projects go?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When you get to the backups folder you will see a list of backups of your Libraries.
