If you're having issues, the real solution is: Make sure the quality is "High"... putting it as "Best (ProRes)" automatically exports it as .mov. When I switched from Best to High, the format changed. Hope this helps!

Sorry -- did I miss the part where you show where to change settings so iMovie exports as mp4? It defaults to a .mov file.

I came here to learn how to export iMovie files as MP4 AS OPPOSED TO .mov at the highest resolutions. This just shows how to export in general, not how to choose what type of file to export.

What version of iMovie are you using? i dont see any my export options on my imovie - i dont understand why

[sil]

howcome you save it as mp4? the current imovie version seems to save only in *.mov. So where is the solution?

[sallygo]

May I ask you something! I download from IMovie but can’t send the file to my iPhone. The format don’t open unless I convert the video to mp4 ?!
Can you give me some suggestions? Thank you

[philiplaurell]

Not helpful. The problem is Imovie will only save to .mov, not mp4

[ChuggsMcPickles-ehlq]

Whys exporting so slow tho :/ glad it's now just my computer tho

[jackbrowning]

Why can I not export to 1080p!?! It only gives me the option of 540 and 720.

No help whatsoever! This video in no way shows how to export as MP4, just how to export a file. WTF??
