Audio, no video(pink flashing screen)

I have a bit of a video problem. I searched the other forum topics and didn't see a post regarding this. I recently ran out of space on my hard drive so I got a 500 gig external hard drive and moved my iTunes to it. I followed the instructions directly from the iTunes website how to do it. Songs play fine but if I try to play any video all I get is audio with a flashing pink screen with lines through it where the video should be. I had this problem one a while back, long before the external hard drive. The problem only lasted about I day before it corrected itself. But this has been this way for a week now and I am a bit discouraged. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

+I can view most video podcasts but there are a few that I can hear the audio, but there is no picture, except for some flashing colors mostly purples and greens. They do this in iTunes and Quicktime.+
With those symptoms, the first thing I'd try is the "Disable Direct3D acceleration in QuickTime" section from the following document:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows XP and 2000 video playback performance issues

Good Audio, no video expect white screen in quicktime exports

Hey Everyone,
In a few recent projects, when I export my projects to quicktime, they appear fine on my computer, but when I watch the files on other people's computers, the quicktime file has no video (expect a white screen) but the audio is intact. Any solutions?

that means they don't have the video codec you used. This is usually because you've used a codec that comes with fcp. What format is your sequence and how did you export?

Video/Audio Chats Don't Work (Screen Sharing as well)

From the time that I got my mac, I have been able to both audio and video, although not screen sharing. I can live without screen sharing, but it would be nice to have if fixable. Now though, audio and video chats don't work at all. I always get an error message that reads,
"There was a communication error during your chat.
Failed to start Video Chat because:
_________ cancelled the connection."
I know that my friends aren't canceling the chats, and especially the appleu3test02 bot.
Any ideas?
Thanks

How have you set up your router or modem to allow the ports iChat uses ?

Why does say"To play the selected item, you must install a later version of the Adobe Flash Player. To download the Adobe Flash Player, go to the Adobe website." when I have the latest Version of it and it's just Black screen with no audio and Video?

You asked your question on the wrong forum. Try one for the Flash Player

Video files are playing audio without video (just a black screen)

Video files are playing audio without video. It just shows a blank screen. These same videos work just fine in Chrome, thogh.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

I cannot open youtube videos to full screen after downloading the latest version of flash. HELP

I cannot open youtube videos to full screen after updateding flash to the latest version (11. something) HELP! youtube says it is adobe's problem

To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
Operating   system
Browser
Flash   Player version
When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details. Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
Windows
Mac
Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.

Non-HTML5 video

When streaming Vid with flash player, audio and video are not in sync

With Flash 11.6, audio and video are not in sync. Video is slower. Using Firefox 20.0.1

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
[[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
[[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
[[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]

Audio and Video are not synced up ONLY when viewed in full screen....?

Audio and Video are not synced up only when I view my project in full screen. I can watch it in the project viewer the audio and video play as they should. I have a presentation tomorrow and I can't figure this out. What am I doing wrong?

Have you updated to version 9.0.2 - this Software Update was released a couple of days ago and fixes audio sync problems as well as improving stability in iMovie '11.

When upgrading Flash 10.2 (Firefox at Version 3.6.14) Any Browser embedded videos run in a split screen (the same video in one screen only dual). Doesn't happen in IE. To fix I did a system rollback.

When upgrading to Flash 10.2 (Firefox is at Ver. 3.6.14, Windows XP), any embedded videos run like a split screen (The same video in one screen, dividing the screen into two running at the same time). This doesn't happen in IE.

Imovie 9 green screen -- audio and video editing problems

I seem to have discovered that once you add a video (the "front" part) to a background using green screen, you can no longer do certain edits on the front part's audio or video.
I tried to do a manual audio fade on a certain clip, and it didn't work. Now I am trying to bring the entire audio for a certain clip down to zero, and even though the little speaker icon shows no sound waves, normal 100% sound is coming from the clip.
Likewise with the video. I tried to do a Split Clip on the front part and it simply didn't work.
Anybody have some words of wisdom? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion Brad, that makes sense... However, I was hoping there was a "straight" iMovie solution.
I'd prefer to not have to 1) spend any money and 2) use a program to do something iMovie is already supposed to do.

Hi,
Open window Control Panel, open Windows Updates, select View update history in the left hand pane, then select 'To remove an update, see Installed Updates'. Let the list populate, then locate update KB3001237, right click it and select Uninstall - when this has completed, restart the notebook.
Download and reinstall the latest driver for your particular graphics chip - the drivers and software page for your notebook is Here.
Restart after this reinstallation.
When windows has reloaded, reinstall update KB3001237 via the standalone installation options on the following link.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3001237
Again, restart after the installation.

Flash video in Full Screen, missing video controls

In the latest version of firefox 17, when i switch flash videos to full screen, the video doesnt show the video controls, which allow you to play/ pause the video or see how much time of the video has gone. It is there when i press back and return to the minimized version.. but for some videos when you minimize after full screen the video starts showing several colours instead of the video.

Update, This issue is still happening in the latest version of Firefox for android. Please check it up.

No audio with video chat, but it works with screen sharing...

I've got a friend who just upgraded to snow leopard. We're both using iMacs. My computer is working find, and I have audio and video with other people.
When we video chat, there is no audio. When I screen share with her computer, with her seeing my desktop or me seeing her desktop, the audio works.
No mute buttons are down, I've checked system preferences (sound) everything is right.
Any ideas?

HAs she checked that System Preferences > Sound > Input is listing and has her Mic Selected ?
Is he r Volume high enough in the same place ?
In her Video Menu is the "Microphone " Enabled" ticked ?
In iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section is the same Mic listed ?
Do the response bars move under the Preview when she talks ?
During a Chat in Your Connection Doctor (Video Menu) is she sending any Audio ?
IS she showing as having a log more Bit Rate than you ?

Streaming Flash content (audio and video) problem

My Mac Pro can't play audio or video on sites like MySpace and YouTube. I get the spinning wheel on Safari and Firefox, meaning I have to Force Quit every time. My Powerbook works fine in this respect, so it can't surely be a network/isp problem.
I've posted in all the forums I can find and no-one has been able to help.
Firstly, is this a software or hardware issue?
I've repaired permissions booting from the install disk and that hasn't helped. Don't know what else to do. I'm loathed to reinstall all the apps on the system drive unless I definitely have to...

Should I trash the Flash Player and install from scratch, or is that pointless?
No, it's advisable.
It is suggested that you first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
You should also ensure that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2009-001 (and for Tiger only, 2009-002). (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:

(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
