HERES HOW TO FIX A VERY SPECIFIC PROBLEM... I couldn't delete a project in iMovie - kept getting this error message:
"(video file) couldn't be moved to the trash because you don't have permission to access it."
I found the original file and unlocked it (by unchecking "Locked"), which didn't work.
The reason the file can't be moved to trash is because iMovie keeps its own copy.
In the video, I show you where to find the actual file in Finder "To view or change permissions" by using "Get Info"
(It's in your users/movies/iMovie Library -- but you have to right click on that folder and choose "Show Package Contents".)
There, you'll see all the actual video files used in your iMovie project.
Once you right click on these, and select "Get Info", you'll be able to uncheck (or untick, if you're from the UK!) the checkbox (tick box).
Now you can go back into iMovie, and delete the project to free up the memory the video files are taking.
