The cure for the "not enough disk space" error is to redownload iMovie. To do that, drag your iMovie app to the trash, but don't empty the trash. Then sign in to the App Store (Apple Logo/App store) with your Apple I.D. and password. Open your App Store account by clicking on your name at the bottom of the App Store side bar. When your account opens you will see a list of your purchases, including iMovie. See if you can download or update it from there. If for some reason the download is not available or is unsuccessful, drag your iMovie app from the trash and place it back in the Applications folder. However, the redownload should be successful. Now see if the "not enough space" issue is solved.
