The only way to change a Windows Movie Maker project file (with the file name extension of MSWMM) is to Publish/Finish the video in the program first.
Publishing/Finishing the project exports video and audio properties, automatically converting them to a Standard Viewing Format (such as .wmv), which is an acceptable format for uploading onto Photobucket, YouTube, etc.

Until you Publish/Finish your Windows Movie Maker project, it remains in project format with a MSWMM file name extension. MSWMM files can only be viewed/edited in the Windows Movie Maker program.
If you want your video in another format, you must first Publish/Finish it. This process mixes-down/exports the audio and video properties, converting them into a Standardviewing format. If publishing/finishing is successful, you can then convert the file to whatever format you want.

Most likely because that file type is not supported in Windows Movie Maker
Windows Movie Maker will never be able to run on any Apple products. You can't run Windows programs designed for Windows on a Mac. This is because their executable file formats are so different. A Windows executable file is a .exe an executable file for a Mac is a .dmg. Movie Maker is a .exe.
