You need to download Cineform from GoPro’s website which will spit out the footage in a format iMovie can understand.

Windows Live Movie Maker

I use Cineform to convert timelapse images into one movie file, and Windows Movie Maker to edit the film generally.
WMM has its limitations but its free…

I use VideoPad to edit the raw files from the GoPro so no need to convert first. You can download the free version here http://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html This was edited using VideoPad, http://vimeo.com/49277320

Flaperon> Are you on the latest version of iMovie? I don’t need to convert the files, I just drop them straight in.

No, it’s a couple of years old. Might nip out to the Apple store for an update in that case!
