I know this is super late but I saw your comment on another video, I just learned to take the audio, click on it until the white line appears, then swipe down on like you were gonna split it. It should split then adjust, delete, etc
When you select a screen recording, it doesn’t pop up with the three dotted icon, it just uploads the file straight away not allowing you to click audio only
Hey… The display is way different from yours. It just has a music page… no audio page. And my audio files can’t be selected from the files tab. I need help
Thank you so much, you kept this nice and simple, straight to the point. I’ve recently started using iMovie, I just couldn’t figure this out, you’ve even helped me get the screen recorder set up on phone, outstanding. If there was ever a time for “the big dummies guide to ….”, then this was it. Thank you again …. 👍
If the music has a fade in I presume it is on the track itself so to remove the fade you may have to trim the clip to where it does not have a fade. You can do this by making the track a foreground layer, tap on the audio track in the timeline, tap on the foreground menu item and then use the split tool to edit.
Hi there, that was an incredible tip about doing the screen recording using Spotify. I just tried it but encountered a problem that I cannot find a solution for. I went into IMovie and tapped the + sign and “audio only”.. then fir a pop up that said: “ Move the playhead to a wider empty audio section”. What does that mean?? I tried a few different things but still getting that pop up.
Try the following. After you tap on the video to add it to the timeline, rather than tap on the plus button, tap on the three dotted icon on the right hand side and select add as audio only. Let me know if that works.
I just downloaded music from the RUclips creator page and it’s not showing up in iMovie. Any idea why I can’t see it? I even searched for it by title. Thanks for any tips.
There's a couple of ways to do it. If you downloaded on a computer and air drop it across to your phone. You should get an option to open in iMovie then add it to any project. Otherwise you can save it to your files app. and put it in the iMovie folder. Then from within iMovie when you tap on the plus button to add audio tap on the Imported option and you should see the new audio file there.
@@theadventuresofkrisandwen If you can't find the files app when you swipe down and do a search for it then it may not be installed. In that case go to the app store and download it.
Omg thank you so much! I wanted to make a good by video for my friend with all our photos but I couldn’t use the song I needed, but your video saved all my problems, thank you
Excellent video! I have a query, I’m unable to find these beautiful soundtracks in iMovies on my Mac. Is it only available in iMovies for iPhone and iPad? Please advise.
For some reason Apple did not include them on the Mac OS version. No idea why. However you can do an edit on the iphone and send the project to the Mac and that will send the audio track over. Or do a mock edit on the iphone just to get the music and then airdrop that file over to the mac then use it for the soundtrack.
If you use a song that has copyright on most platforms you will find that your content may be restricted. For example on RUclips you will usually get a copyright notice so if you intend to monetize you will find all proceeds go to the artist/record label. In some instances they don't even allow you to use it. So if you use a commercial track just be aware of these restrictions.
This is exactly what I was looking for since so many songs have DRM digital rights management protection and your instructions were clear and concise on how to use IMovie! Thank you so, so much!
I’m using iPhone 12 Pro Max and if I add the audio and making it background it still doesn’t allow me to drag the mp3 track without the video moving with it
I did find this video incredibly helpful despite the process being pretty straightforward and that’s kinda what I thought we were doing. I just came out here to see if there were any easier methods. I’m looking forward to watching a couple more videos of yours, pertaining to the use of iMovie. I recently started flying FPV Quadcopters this past year, and I’d like to learn to edit my flights using nothing but my iPhone. I went ahead and subscribed, and I’m confident I will like these other videos as well. Thank you sir!
Great to hear. That sound like so much fun and I a sure will make awesome content! Thanks for checking out the videos on the channel and for the sub. Cheers!
Always appreciate your information. 👍🏽 would love to know how to access the RUclips creator studio from iPhone to use in iMovie. I always use my phone to create videos for upload to RUclips. However, I don’t know how to access the RUclips free music from my phone. Some content providers suggest downloading an app to do this. Do you have a better way?
Anytime. It is going to be easiest to access form a computer but if you don't have one available you can try it from your phone. Just navigate to studio.youtube.com in the safari browser on the phone and see if you an access the audio library from there. If you can you can then tap an hold on the audio track to download it into the files app on your phone. I haven't tried this method so not 100% sure it will be as easy as that. But worth giving it a go..
@@Touchtechnologyreview thank you for your help. I was able to go the route you suggested. It is a little difficult to do but I was able to get to the RUclips music library from my phone. I appreciate you and your knowledge. 😊 Sorry for always asking for help but I don’t know anyone else who is willing to share their expertise. Thanks again.
Spotify Screen record is a smart idea, if at first the audio is not uploading, it may be because you stayed on the Spotify app. After I swiped out the app THEN hit play to recored it, it worked great!!
Just to clarify how it works within the RUclips environment: RUclips use some AI to detect the audio in your videos and match them with commercial audio tracks. Once matched you will get a copyright notice and they will say that it is OK and that your video will not be taken down. However if you are monetized all earnings will go to the copyright owner of the music track. In some cases if the owner chooses to they can request a takedown of the video, but as I understand it this is not common, its all about the money.
Is there a way that you can add songs that your favorite artist hasn’t added or Spotify hasn’t added because that way I can add that album of that artist that I like that Spotify hasn’t added but what I want is that. Is there a way that you can add songs of your favorite artist but put it private for only you can hear it for you don’t get copyright?
For some reason Apple haven't included any of the theme audio tracks in the OSX version. Given all the issues with copyright I would highly recommend that you look at the music library in the RUclips Creator Studio. You can download these and use freely. Simply drag them into to your Apple Music App, create a playlist and then when you are in iMovie navigate to that playlist in the Audio window.
So glad I found you. I've been editing on an apple 8 phone. My eyes are killing me. Getting an ipad 7th Gen to edit. You've inspired me. Thx soooooo much!
Great to hear from you. Thanks so much for watching! iPad 7th Gen! That will be a big step up in terms of the screen real estate and as you say easier on the eyes!
@@sellsformoola You'll save a fair bit by just getting the wifi model. If you get cellular then you have to get a data plan to use it so the costs add up. As you say you can always hotspot it if you are out. 👍
5:40 is what I needed
its these super specific videos that most people wont need that I appreciate the most
Thanks so much!
You legend! The Spotify screen record was on point!!!
Awesome. Glad it worked for you! Cheers!
I didn’t found screen recording in iMovie pls help out guys
@@laxmitrishala3802 I use InShot it’s pretty much like imovie, hope that helps
This was unreal tip thank you
@@6nosis You welcome buddy
Your screen recording of a Spotify song works well. I'm in debt to you.
Since updating the iMovie app on my phone I haven’t been able to add audio only the option has disappeared has this happened for anyone else?
Same here
🔥
How can I add only a specific part of a song, e.g. the hook.
For me it always starts at the beginning
I know this is super late but I saw your comment on another video, I just learned to take the audio, click on it until the white line appears, then swipe down on like you were gonna split it. It should split then adjust, delete, etc
I’m using iMovie for the first time for a friend that’s moving to another state. Thank you for teaching so much content in a short amount of time!
Is iMovie copyright free?
Hi, I recently started using iMovie on my XR. The problem I ran into is that an imported song is not playing how I want it to. Could you please help 🙏
When you select a screen recording, it doesn’t pop up with the three dotted icon, it just uploads the file straight away not allowing you to click audio only
This is the issue I’m having! Did you find a way round it?
@@helenamann8335 yes, I just had my sister add the song on her MacBook!
Hey… The display is way different from yours. It just has a music page… no audio page. And my audio files can’t be selected from the files tab. I need help
Never thought of screen recording audio. Amazing. Thank you.
You're welcome!
It would have been so easy if one could screen record on iMusic. He left that part out. What if I do not want Spotify?!
Thank you!! This was more informative than MANY of the other videos I’ve watched!! Much appreciated!!
You are most welcome! Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching. Cheers!
So helpful once i tried to screen record from apple music but no sound then i tried to record from youtube and it works!
After years of wondering how…thank you man!
You are most welcome! Glad the video was helpful!

So glad to hear the video was helpful. Thanks for watching!
I’m sure they’ve blocked this now 😩 Everytine I do it the song mutes itself
Do you mean screen recording? I’d so try an alternate platform...
You can just find the song on youtube and do it that way!
@@shannondollie Screen record RUclips video? Then, use that audio in your own RUclips video? That is allowed? Thank you.
@@phillybrc thank you!
I tried using RUclips and there was no audio on the recording for the song I want.
Do you know what would cause me to have no audio when using this on apple music app?
Doesn’t work anymore with the new update
I was thinking that’s why I can’t get it to work for me either
When I started screen recording my music went off. It was still playing but no sound.
I have solution for this issue which can be seen on the following video: ruclips.net/video/qiRMFf0K26c/видео.html
How do you do this on mac?
AWESOME!!! Thank you so much man, I've been looking to find a way to use my music from my playlist. You are the best :)
Happy to help out. Cheers!

Great you found these tips helpful!
Its not working on my phone when i combine the two music in one video. The yellow color disappears once i press it, supposedly to move it
It would seem for me that the three dots no longer appear next to the play button when I try add the screen recording to the project :(
Thanks learnt a lot!
Great to hear that!
Ich bin begeistert, Danke
You are most welcome.

Thanks so much. Glad you are enjoying the content!
what do i write on video so id be relased from the music copyrights?
If you use a song that has copyright on most platforms you will find that your content may be restricted.
