I can't decipher the iMovie licence agreement.
I've created an iMovie trailer. Added my own photos only to the Apple software.
Can I publish this on Facebook?
It's non commercial and the group will consist of people I don't know but who need to join the group (I don't know if that counts as public or not). It's ancestry-related.
So, can I publish all the Apple bits (soundtrack, graphics etc) of the trailer?
Thanks

The Apple License Agreement is a legal document that can be difficult for non-lawyers to understand. There is no clear answer to your question as far as I can tell. However, Facebook has been known to refuse sample content from iMovie. I think that the soundtrack would be the main issue. It might get muted. If you can get Facebook to publish the trailer, I doubt that anyone would complain about your use of it. It is non-commercial and directed to a limited audience. Still, don't rely on what I say, as I am just a consumer like yourself. Out of caution I need to advise you to get a legal opinion, as Apple does in the License Agreement.
Apple has a "legal" website so you might try posting your question there. Here's the link:

Thank you Rich, very helpful :-)
Happy to help. Did you try Apple's legal site, and if so did it answer you question about the trailer?

Yes, I submitted an enquiry via the link on the legal page.
I’ll post here if the answer contains any extra useful information.
Thanks again!
Great. I will be interested in the response you get from Apple Legal.
