iMovie File Type Extension

When I installed OS 10.2 on my machine I wanted to start fresh with a clean hard drive, so I backed up my data and reformatted. However when I transferred everything back many of my files forgot what kind of files they are. I had to add .mp3 to some of my mp3s so they would play.



A couple of iMovie projects that I was working on also lost their association. I can tell the file that it should open in iMovie but when I try to open the file it starts iMovie but doesn't open the project.



DOES ANYONE KNOW THE FILE TYPE EXTENSION FOR AN IMOVIE PROJ.?

    why don't you create a new project, and look for yourself ?

    There is no extension on the filename IIRC. You can open these files by dragging them on the iMovie icon.



    HTH.

    and if iMovie does nothing, just choose to open a existing project.
