iMovie needed permission

Imovie says needed permission for camera roll and music, but I already gave full camera roll access, but it says I need to allow access to music but give me no options or steps for me to allow music access. I try to press continue but nothing happens, no matter how good my service is, it lags and the screen stays the same and won’t let me use my IMovie.



iPhone 13, iOS 18

I had the same problem! Here’s how I fixed it:


  • *very important* Apple Music MUST be installed on your iPad first.
  • Settings - Privacy & Location - Files and Folders - Uncheck iMovie.
  • Settings - General Settings - Transfer or Reset iPad - Reset (it’ll open a menu) - Reset Location and Privacy
  • Open iMovie - Continue - Allow every permission Apple wants you to hand over - Give it your soul if need be
  • iMusic should now show up in Settings - Privacy & Security with iMovie checked, now that you’ve given it permission.
  • Download all raw data and never trust Apple again.


I hope I covered everything!
