As it puts the finishing touches on a brand new Photos app set to replace iPhoto and Aperture, Apple is giving iMovie continued attention. A new update is available from the Cupertino tech titan featuring some important tweaks and fixes.

According to the Mac maker, iMovie version 10.0.4 “improves stability and resolves issues that could cause iMovie to quit unexpectedly.”

For those who haven’t updated their iMovie installation in a while, version 10.0.3 adds an option to sort events in the sidebar by date, changes fonts, size, and color of new titles introduced in iMovie version 10, lets you double-click a transition in the timeline to adjust its duration, includes options to crop and rotate clips in events, and more.

The software further lets creatives add speed effects using the Adjustments Bar, as well as smoothly transition in and out of speed effects. General usability improvements were also included in 10.0.3.

iMovie for Mac supports over two dozen different languages, including English, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, and Ukrainian. To download iMovie for Mac, you need OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 or later and access to the Mac App Store.
