I have iMovie '11 on a 10.7.5 Mac with2x2.8 GHz Quad core with 12GB / 800 MHZ memory. When I created a 1.5 hour long movie for an event next Saturday and try to 'share' it as a 720 or even lower rez movie file and even a Quick Time movie, I keep getting a message that says, 'Sharing requires more memory to be available. Quit iMovie and relaunch. IMovie and other software programs for video editing have been quick to promote this free theme as the best like iMovie wedding template. It stands out because with news, very few people can imitate the reality and that is what this theme offers. Although iMovie is pretty good at what it does, sometimes you may also want to get your hands on some other decent programs similar to iMovie for satisfying all your video editing needs. Here we list the top 5 best alternatives to iMovie for Mac (Mavericks and Mac OS X El Capitan included), including some free video editing software and some.
First, let me say thank you for the help and time people have invested in this!Step one read through all the posts before you do anything!
Step two read through the posts again!
Imovie 10.7.5
These are the steps that worked on my iBook G4 1.42 GHz with 1.5 GB Ram and OSX 10.5.8
1) I followed SSM's post about downloading Pacifist to allow you to install the packages first from a DMG of iLife 09 which I already had on my system.
2) Do not run iMovie
3) Download Hexedit and install the program.
4) Follow RunAway's original instructions 'Use the File � Go To Address function in HexEdit to go to the following addresses, and replace each existing entry at those addresses (7C 08 02 A6) with 4E 80 00 20. The addresses are 15fb9c, 15fc7c, and 15fe00'.
5) Now, this is where I spent a night figuring out what the issue was. I saved the file I had edited and ended up with a 'iMovie~' beneath the original 'iMovie' file in the MacOS folder mentioned in the original posting. I deleted the original file, and dropped the '~' symbol from the name of the new file... when I closed Hexedit and tried clicking on iMovie in my Applications folder I kept receiving the error that I needed a G5 or faster processor.
To fix this I thought I had made a mistake somewhere so I erased iMovie fully from my system and re-installed and tried it all over again (did this twice) and still had the same issue!

6) Solution that worked for me. When I save the edited file, I clicked 'save as' and dropped the newly edited file onto my desktop. This file did not have the '~' symbol so I then deleted the original 'iMovie' file from its folder (as stated in RunAway's original post - iMovie icon � Right click � show package contents � Contents � MacOS).
I then dragged and dropped the new 'iMovie' file from the desktop to that folder and closed the folder. I then crossed my fingers and clicked the iMovie App icon from my applications folder... and within 15 seconds I had iMovie up and running!
Imovie For Os 10.7.5
I figured out that before I chose 'save as' the file was making a new copy of itself without saving the changes in Hexedit. Do not use 'save' once you have edited the file, use the 'save as' and save to a new location to then be dragged over.
