Given I share a Desktop iMac - is it possible to have Library & Projects on an attached separate HD? I have just installed Monterey iOS 12 and trying to sort out all past photos, projects & movie clips. Can everything live on a separate HD with iMovie on the Monterey Main Drive. If not past projects is it possible to at least save new projects & new library on a separate HD. You were asking for ideas - a video on accessing years of images & storage issues would be great. Duplicate images constantly issue. Thanks

it took awhile but I finally googled how to change duration of transition by double clicking. Stupid me I guess I should have known that.

Do you know if you've originally saved the imovie library/projects on an external drive can you then also save a copy on your computer hard drive? Thanks

Great Video, BUT how can I watch my iMovie on my Apple TV and or Samsung TV???

[WynnsonsWORLD]

Thanks for great introduction !
Question: Mac (most recent M1pro) does not support for 5k videos or we can export directly to Youtube channel instead we have to save the file in our internal drive. Do you have a better solution for that?
