Question:

Hi there, I have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro, running on Mojave, and my current iMovie does not support adding URL links when I create a video. I know that you can do this if you have QuickTime Pro, but Apple does not sell it anymore and I can't find it anywhere. Any ideas on how can I sort this out? Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.14

  6. Upload the file using the YouTube or Facebook website or app.

If you want to send your finished movie or trailer to your Mac so that you can view it there, save it to the photo library and then import it into an app on your Mac such as Photos. If you use iCloud, you can also save your movie or trailer to iCloud Drive and then download it to your computer.

Note: If you want to send any project to your Mac for backup or to edit it in iMovie for Mac, or if you want to edit the project further on another compatible iPhone or iPad, you should send the project to iCloud Drive, or use AirDrop to quickly transfer files between devices. See the instructions for those methods, covered elsewhere in this topic.

Choosing a higher resolution produces a larger file that’s great for viewing on a Mac or on a high-definition television (HDTV) through Apple TV.

    • Choose a frame rate for the movie or trailer: Tap a frame rate.

      Note: If you share a movie or trailer using the 1080p HD or 4K option and more than 50 percent of your project media is 1080p or 4K video at 60 frames per second (fps), you have the option to save your movie at 60 fps.
