Open the mage spellbook. To the left you'll see some empty slots that will get filled once you pick up spells from the right. Now rest. Good luck.

I'm sorry, I wish I could help you more but I don't know very much about this game myself.
I suppose there are a lot of guys with experience around here. Probably they will help you more. Good luck.

Is Imoen wearing armor? This is the normal cause as most people dont know that armor (exept robes) disrupt spellcasting.

Otherwise i would suggest always having the latest patch downloaded.

Else you are doing something wrong. Open the spellbook, look to the right, press a spell (Magic Missile is fine) and rest.

You did remember to empty out the spells already in her list, right? The slots in the left can only be used if they are empty. Otherwise, click on them to empty them out.
