Video will not show in the preview window

I am using iMovie 08 and have some video that I pulled into iMovie using my iSight. Whenever I am trying to preview my movie it will not show in the preview window. I did a software update for iMovie and the issue is still happening. Any ideas??

Although the same not preview-able iMovie event played perfectly fine when transferred to a different mac running perian and divx, disabling Perian solved the issue on my macbook, too!
Thanks for the tip!
I still wonder why some clips preview and some don't (with perian running)...

  • My video will not show picture only sound? windows 8.1

    I did updates yesterday and now this is happening

    Hello @34jamie,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I have read your post on how your video will not show picture, but the audio will work on your Windows 8.1 computer. Does the video appear and then disappear using media player software? Does this occur when streaming videos on YouTube? Did you perform Windows or HP updates before this issue occured? Does the entire screen go blank, turn a different color or just show blank on the video window you are attempting to view? I would be happy to help you, but first I would encourage you to post your product number for your computer. Below is a is an HP Support document that will demonstrate how to find your computer's product number.

    Please re-post with the necessary information, this way I will be able to research this further for you. I look forward to your reply!

  • I would like to use time Machine to back up to a network SMB drive. I can see the drive on my desktop but it will not show in the time machine window to be able to select it

    I currently have a mini server (OSX10.8.5, server 2.2.2) that I am using Time Machine to back up 4 external drives that are connected to the server via firewire 800. I would like to use Time Machine to back up to a windows network SMB drive. I can see the drive on my desktop but it will not show in the time machine window to be able to select it for use.
    Can this be done
    Thanks for any and all help

    The supported targets for Time Machine backups are local (direct-connected) disks, and network targets include Time Capsule, a disk hanging off the current-generation AirPort (though not earlier AirPort devices), and OS X Server systems.
    The Time Machine storage is based on the HFS+ file system, so I would not expect TM to work with SMB file services.
    While there are hacks to allow Time Machine to access network drives, I would not consider those to be reliable. Skim the forum and the 'net for related details, and for previous discussions of setting this up and the related issues that can arise.
    Remember to test the recovery with whatever you decide to use; whole point of backups is the ability to restore the data, after all.
    If you want to learn more about Time Machine, Pondini is an excellent resource.

  • My images will not show in the Finder Pictures folders, but just display as jpeg thumbnails.  I have to open each one to see what photo it is.  This has just recently started to happen.

    My images will not show in the Finder Pictures folders, but just display as jpeg thumbnails.  I have to open each one to see what photo it is.  This has just recently started to happen.

    I made sure the 'Show Icon Preview' box was checked.  This is about all I can do, really, Frank, as i don't know enough about the workings of these machines to start fiddling about.
    Strangely the images show as previews in some folders, yet not in others, even though they come from the same sources (my camera and my phone).

  • Some videos will not play in the Public site

    For some reason, I have quite a few videos that do not play in the public site while other videos play just fine. When selecting a video, the player opens but the video never starts.
    Any ideas?

    Hi dalekw83,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If videos will not play in iTunes for Windows, start with the troubleshooting tips found here:

    I have a leica m9, aperture metadata will not show me the lens aperture used, as it does in lightroom 3, any ideas.

    This has been an ongoing issue with this camera for a long time. Search the list here or Google the issue to see the many posts on this.
    For whatever reason Aperture is unable to report that data. Some have written that it is because the that particular lens/camera combination does not report the f stop information.
    You can always send feedback to Apple see Aperture->Provide Aperture Feedback

    Hi,
    I would like to know if the backup program has been uninstalled?
    I suggest updating your graphic card driver from manufacturer's site and scanning the computer with your security software. Also test the issue in
    Clean Boot. If possible, try to reinstall problematic games.
    Best Regards,
    Niki

  • I changed my browser fill and the update does not show in the preview mode

    I changed my browser fill and the update does not show in the preview mode. I saved and restarted muse but the problem is still there. Any thing else I can do? Could it be something that changed in the file?

    Hello,
    What did you put in the "browser fill" area, an image or a color? WIth gradient or with solid color? Also, does it show fine if you "Preview in Browser"?
    Screenshots showing the Browser fill section (like this: http://screencast.com/t/RHqdVPP4) and the display in Preview mode would also be helpful.
    Cheers

  • Macs will not show up on DNS Windows Server 2008 R2

    In our office, we have a Windows Server Infrastructure with several Macs (Imacs, mac pros, macbook airs etc).
    Active Directory and DNS is running off a Windows Server 2008 R2 Server, with DHCP on a Cisco Router.
    DHCP is configured to direct all DNS entries to the Windows DNS Server.
    The problem that I'm having is that, while all windows machines show up on the Windows DNS Server, None of the Macs are registered. Macs are able to utilize the DNS Server correctly, but will not register on the DNS Listings.
    Because I cannot access or ping Macs via their hostname, I cannot tell our third party backup software to point to a particular machine. Our workstations are all DHCP enabled, and since assigning a static ip to all the Macs here is not an option, I need to get this working, so that I can get our macs backing up.
    I've followed a few similar articles, but they appear to be for older 2003 servers, which the 2008 R2 servers do not have those options. I do not want to join the Macs onto the windows domain, I merely want to get them registered on our DNS server.
    The mac operating systems vary between Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1421684?start=0&tstart=0 <--- Article I was following
    Thanks,
    Rboelens

    I'm pretty sure that the DNS registration stuff is part of the Active Directory plug-in on OS X.  I'd recommend you give it a try.
    GPOs are not enforced on the Macs if they're bound to Active Directory, _unless_ you've extended the Active Directory schema (which is a lot of work).  The main benefits to joining Macs to AD ar:
    * Centralized password management and policies (as you've defined in AD).
    * Single sign-on to various kerberized resources (i.e. Windows share points and internal web pages if you're using IIS and you use Kerberos to secure them, rather than NTLM).
    Here's an Apple white paper which may help.  I would recommend you read this carefully and then decide whether or not you want to bind the Macs to AD.  I'd also recommend you test with a bound Mac to see if resolves this "host name in DNS" issue... I suspect it will.

  • New field will not show in the Datasource

    Hello Experts,
    I enhanced a datasource by adding a new field in the append structure and when I saved and activated and when into RSA5 or RSA6 then double clicked on the datasource my ZZ field does not show at the end. Anyone know why this is?
    Datasource: 2LIS_11_VAITM
    Extract Structure: MC11VA0ITM
    Thanks!

    HI,
    Once you have appended the structure .
    In RSA6 you need to go to the purticular datasource (In change Mode) and need to uncheck the option *HIDE field for the field you have appended   .
    After you Uncheck that field save and exit.
    Hope it is helpful .

  • My 6th generation nano does not show in the iTunes window.

    When I open iTunes my nano does not appear in the library window and my computer does not recognize the device, so it's also not synching. My library is intact and I've updated both the iTunes software and downloaded updates for Windows 7.  I even uninstalled and re-install iTunees.
    The only thing I haven't done is changed cords.  I'm using the cord from a 1st generation ipod.  I received the 6th generation ipod as part of Apple's replacement program.
    Everything worked fine the last time I synched a few months ago and when I recharged the ipod last month.
    Does anyone have additional tips to fix this?

    I tried all this, I mean should I reset all setting?
    Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    that is restart.
