• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

You are getting your iMovie versions mixed up. The Advanced tab is in older versions of iMovie.

Type audio in the Help search box of iMovie and you'll find how to extract a portion of audio to move around within your project.

If you want to export audio out to a file, than you'll have to "Export Using QuickTime..." under the Share menu and follow through to create an appropriate file with just audio in it. Looks like you would have to export the entire project tract. If you want just a selection, then select that in one project, copy, move to another project, paste, and export that project.
