7. Click and hold the clip and drag it into the timeline.
8. If this window appears, click “OK”

10. Go to “Tools” and click “Blade”
11. Hover the cursor over the part where the first video ends and the second begins. Once you found that point, click to cut the clip.

19. Double click on the first project to open it again
20. Click on the clip you copied before and delete it by pressing backspace (<– or delete)
21. Now each project should contain one of the two clips
22. Click on the “Share” button and click “Apple Devices 720p”
23. Change the name of the file if necessary and change the settings if necessary, then click “Next” (In the last option under “Settings” select “Do Nothing”, DO NOT select “Add to library”)
24. Set the destination, click “Save”
25. Now double click the other project, and again: Go to “Share”, click “Apple Devices 720p”, change name, click “Next”, set destination and click “Save”
