iMovie space error

Hi, I have a problem with a free space for my projects in iMovie. I have over 57 gb free on my Macintosh but I cannot add anything to my new project, I constantly get the info that there is no space at the destination place. Can it be fixed?

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

Hi, Annhamm,


Yes. It can be fixed. You do that by redownloading iMovie. To

update/redownload iMovie 10, drag your iMovie 10 app from the Applications

folder into the trash, but do not empty the trash. Sign in to the app

store and open your purchases folder by clicking on your name at the bottom of

the app store side bar. You will see your purchases displayed, including iMovie

10. Redownload/update iMovie from there. If not successful, drag your present

iMovie app out of the trash and return it to the Applications folder.


The above procedure should solve the insufficient disk space issue.
