Whenever I add text to a video I am editing in iMovie, it causes the video to turn black and the text doesn't even show up. But then the video will start playing again after the text duration. How do I fix this?

Hi, aniveaaa,
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. Now see if you can add text without the video turning black.
If no succes, try creating a new project and see if iMovie functions correctly in the new project.
