iMovie not displaying photos in new movie video

I’m trying to create a new movie video and the photos are not showing. I can hear my added music and see the photos I’ve selected on the timeline but they’re not showing up too in the actual video. I’ve checked to make sure the app is updated and I’ve restarted the app. Please help!

How do I fix freezing photos issue on iMovie? Why do my photos in iMovie no longer progress as a Slideshow from the first photo, but the music plays. Oddly enough, if I introduce a video at the very commencement and reduce it to 2 seconds, then my iMovie slideshow operates fine. This sounds like a bug ? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Photos not changing in iMovies Once I've added all my photos to the iMovie and then a music track it doesn't transition between the photos. It remains stuck on the first one, however when in edit mode it does seem to transition?

imovie photos won't drag to the timeline My photos are visible in the imovie browser but when I try to drag them to the timeline I get a message "You are combining audio and video clips outside the primary storyline" "You cannot add video clips to existing audio-only compound clips." What does this mean? These are just photos from my photos library, no video or audio. How do I fix this?
