Since few weeks ago my iMovie program doesn't allow me to drag and drop the movie and audio files into the the EDIT area. I tried to update the app but i couldn't.

To update, drag you iMovie app from the Applications folder into the trash, but don't empty the trash. Then sign in to the app store and open your purchases folder by clicking on your name in the app store side bar. Your purchases will be displayed, including iMovie. Update or redownload it from there. If no success, drag your old iMovie app out of the trash and return it to the applications folder.
Before updating you might try the simple procedure of opening iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys, and selecting to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects. Create a new project and see if you can drag into a project timeline.
