80GB ipod only outputs in black and white

I just bought a new 80GB 5th Gen iPod and hooked it up to my TV and it only outputs the picture in Black and White. If I take my old 60GB 5th Gen iPod it will output a picture no problem in color with the same TV and the same cable hooked up the same way.
All TV out settings are the same:
TV Out: Ask (I turn to ON)
NTSC
Widescreen On
Cable: Apple's iPod AV Cable M9765G/A
The weird thing though is if I take my new 80GB 5th Gen iPod and hook it up to my "MyVu" headsup display, it displays in color. It just won't do it on my TV.
Why won't it display color on my TV?

Try a different Video file on the 80 GB;to see if any changes? Are there any other title;s Videos are Podcast,
TV Shows that will playback in color-- if so It's possible that your file format is not compatible.
Check to see how the video files are define by format, frame rate etc; that your using as a reference to playback on TV.
See if you have any other Video's on the 80GB that will play in color.
Make sure your 80GB is using Itunes Version 7.0 or higher

  • My iPod connects to my TV just fine, but it only plays in black and white,

    i can connect it and get it to play videos, but it will only play in black and white. i know the videos are color, but none is coming up. any ideas on problems or ways to fix it?

    So just the three RCA jack type, one side into your iPod's headphone jack and then Video and L&R Audio RCA plugs at the other end?
    Did you check your iPod's video settings to make sure you are not sending out PAL when you want NTSC or sending out NTSC when you want PAL?

  • Why do ipods come in many awesome colors and iphones only come in black and white?

    Why do ipods come in many awesome colors and iphones only come in black and white?

    The only answer is because that's what Apple decided.  No one here knows any more than that.
    You should put a case on it anyway so buy one in the color you want.

  • Films only showing in black and white

    hi,
    I've just got the Iphone and when I try and watch a film from Itunes through my tv using the AV composite cable it will only show in black and white. The cable is new and when I've tried it with my 5th gen Ipod it works fine. I've checked the connections and everything seems to be hooked up OK. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

    When installing the new cartridges, did you get the message "Original HP cartridges have been installed"?
    Can you check the ink levels and actually see the been color displayed?

    Check the printer itself.  Some printers you need to set the color & B&W settings on the printer itself instead of the Mac.   If that is not the case w/your printer, contact HP tech support and/or post in their forums if they have one. 

  • Mini DV to Video only shows in black and white

    I bought a mini dv to video from an apple shop so that i could watch films on my tv. I connected it to my tv at home and it worked perfectly, but when i try to connect it to my parents tv it only shows in black and white... both tvs are of roughly the same age...I'm connecting the yellow wire to the scart on the back of the tv to the yellow socket on the adapter
    how come it works on one tv and not the other one?

    When you press the INPUT button on the remote to cycle through the inputs, is "ColorStream HD" listed? Is "Video" listed?
    The Xbox is connected using 5 cables, correct? Red, blue, green, white, and red?

  • Laserjet 4700 only printing in black and white on windows7 systems

    I have an HP Laserjet 4700 printer (Model Q7493A). It works perfectly fine in XP. When I have attempted to install it on a windows 7 system, it will only print in black and white.
    I have downloaded the current universal print drivers from the HP website
    I have other printers of the same model which don't have the problem. 
    I have tested this printer on other win7 systems and have recreated the issue. 
    It looks like for some reason this printer is only installing the Black and white drivers from the universal print driver. 
    Anyone have any thoughts?

    This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!
    You can find the Commercial Laserjet board here:

  • RGB Only Prints in Black and White

    My Illustrator CS3 seems to have developed a strange problem.  If I create a new RGB based document, a 'Web Document' or a 'Basic RGB Document' for example, and the print it, I only get a black and white print.  If I create a CMYK based document it prints just fine.  I have also tried creating a CMYK document and converting it to RGB and that prints fine too, but if I create an RGB document and convert to CMYK again I get a black and white print.
    I have checked each of the colour profile and print dialog boxes to see if there are any differences bewteen a RGB sourced document and a CMYK sourced document but can't see anything obvious.  This problem seems to have developed over the past couple of weeks as it used to print RGB without a problem.
    Any help would be much appreciated as I've been going round in circles with this for hours.  I should perhaps add that I'm no Illustrator expert!
    Thanks.

    I have found a solution to the problem by installing and using the PCL 6.0 driver instead of the PostScript driver (interestingly the PostScript driver is recommended by Xerox).
    I am guessing that there must be a small error/discrepancy in the Xerox PostScript driver as it works fine in all other applications and indeed even in Illustrator with everything but RGB colour mode.
    This also stacks up against the way the problem materialised as it seems that the error is only apparent in the latest driver, the previous driver (as shipped on CD with the printer) works correctly (it was updated by a Microsoft Update Patch originally).
    It would be nice to raise this problem with Adobe and Xerox, but I wouldn't know where to start, so I'll stick with the PCL driver.

  • My printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color

    my printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color I got a new color cartage nothing still only printing in back and whit what can i do

    There are a few things to check:
    Make sure the blue tape has been removed from the nozzle plate.
    Print a diagnostic page as shown in method 4 here.  Does this page print color?  If so the issue may be your driver settings.  Check for a "Print in grayscale" setting and uncheck this box.

  • Only print in black and white.

    Using the correct color ink print cartridge, my Photosmart 7660 will only print in black and white. How do I fix this?  I've used the printer to print photos successfully a while ago and I don't think I changed anything, but it stopped working.

    When installing the new cartridges, did you get the message "Original HP cartridges have been installed"?
    Can you check the ink levels and actually see the been color displayed?

  • URGENT HELP REQUIRED: HP PRINTER ONLY WORKING IN BLACK AND WHITE

    Hi - really hoping somone can help..!  Just updated all three Macs to new OSX Mavericks and now both HP printers 940c and 5510c both only print in black and white.  Need to get them working in colour for my daughters school homework!!
    Have seen all the forums saying look at printer settings, but none of the settings have the old OSX options turning black and white and colour on and off.  It appears the drivers that were on the previous Mac software have been deleted or turned off by Apple..?  WHY!!  I wish I had not updated any of the Macs if I'd known I'd lose printing functionality!!!  
    Seems HP no longer provide drivers for these printers that are over 5 years old.  Trouble is I've got hundreds of pounds worth of colour cartirdges already bought for them that I thought I'd use!!!!!!!!!  Maybe I need to go back to a PC as at least you can print things!!! ;-)
    Look forward to any helpful comments....
    Thank all...

  • Photoshop CS5 only prints in black and white

    Photoshop CS 5.1 only prints in black and white. It is not a new printer (Kodak) and I have printed in color in photoshop in the past. All other applications will print in color. Have removed the settings folder, but that did not do anything.

    This sounds like a conflict with your printer's driver and Ps. Have you looked at a newer one?
    Have you checked the Color settings in your printer's driver? Many, like most of my Epsons, can be set to B/W only. Those settings are on a print-job basis, and once I exit from a program, they are not usually retained, and go to the default, however that has been set.
    Please let us know model and then driver numbers, as there might be something there.
    Good luck,

  • HP1515  only prints in black and white (sometimes!)

    This is a weird one. Have 3 imacs in my school connected to a pc network with no problems. One imac when sent to one HP1515 will only print in black and white. However, if I print a test page, it prints in colour.
    The same imac, if print sent to different HP 1515 prints in colour. Print command sent from different imac to said printer prints fine in colour. I cant work out what is going on here?!!!
    Any help much appreciated
