Black screen in source monitor

I am trying to synch a good audio file with my .mov. But when I do exactly what is described here Automatically synchronize audio and video files in Adobe Premiere Pro CC based on audio waves - YouTube I just get a black screen in the source monitor. Why?? Shouldent I be seeing the good sound synched with the video file playing in the source monitor? I am new to premiere so maybe I have a setting off? Please advise!

Okay, that answered my question. I didnt know the in and out points in the source monitor had to stretch the entire length of the clip when I merge them. But I have another question. As shown in the image, my show is already cut with different takes of the same performance with the reference camera audio. How do I synchronize the good audio for each clip in the timeline?
When I laso around the first clip in the timeline and the audio (mono 001.wav) underneath it and select Synchronize it moves my clip down the timeline out of place. I want it to stay where it is...

It maybe trying to boot from the incomplete install.
Try starting your Mac while holding down the Option key, it should then list all the available boot drives including the Mac OS X one. Boot from the Mac one and then you can wipe the damaged PC one or set the Mac to stay booting in to OS X.

In Windows 8.1 Premiere Pro video imported clips shows up black screen in Source & Work space. Everything is updated on my PC.

In Windows 8.1 Premiere Pro video imported clips shows up black screen in Source & Work space. Everything is updated on my PC. They say it could have been a Windows update? Is anyone else having this problem and found a solution any suggestions.. Thank you.

Hello, thank you for your help. I finally was able to contact someone from Adobe on line.. It took about 1 hour on hold but I finally won the lotto...Lol. Pr.. /Project/Project Settings/General/ I had the (Mercury Playback Engine GPU Accelerated (CUDA) and not the (Mercury Playback Engine Software Only) It only took 1 second for Adobe to figure it out...Lol.
Although I have a high rated Nvidia card that did handle the software for some time after a hack, I believe a Windows update may have altered my Premiere Pro CS6 settings.
Video card is Geforce Nvidia GTX 765M non compatible with (Mercury Playback Engine GPU Accelerated (CUDA). Thank Ronin Edits and cvid01

I made the mistake when configuring a external monitor, of changing the mhz to 75. When I close the MBP I now get a black screen on the monitor. How do I change it back?

I have a MacBook Pro with the latest operating system, trying to configure a Gateway flat monitor with vga.
Thanks

Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays.
System Preferences can also be found in the Hard drive -> Applications folder.
Resetting the PRAM can help bring displays back to factory settings if you can't find what you need:

Qosmio G30 - black screen on external monitor

Qosmio G30 (PQG32E) running Vista Home Premium, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 driver, 7.15.10.9813
I cannot get a picture on an external monitor (tried two different monitors). Specifically:
'Windows Mobility Center' will recognise that a monitor is connected
'NVIDIA Control Panel - Change Display Configuration' will recognise the external monitor ('Select the displays you would like to use' shows 'Laptop Display + Sony SDM-HS73', which is the plugged-in ext monitor)
but no matter what configuration I try, using Fn+F5 or Change Display Configuration, I cannot get anything but a (backlit) black screen on the external monitor.
The monitor is receiving a video signal correctly: when turned off under a laptop-only Fn+F5 setting, it shows a 'no signal' warning, but when turned on again I just get black.
I have tried changing resolution settings for the external monitor. They exactly match the monitor's native resolution. Still nothing.
Tried 'Clone' mode and 'Dual View' mode.
Tried various different orders of switching the laptop and monitor on, plugging and unplugging, etc.
Have installed latest driver from this Toshiba site (as above). Have NOT tried installing any other driver from the NVIDIA site, since it warns to use Toshiba's - but is that worth a try?
The laptop's own screen and all other aspects of video are fine.
It has worked ok in the past (I think before I did the upgrade to Vista, when it was still on XP).
Do I just wait for another driver update from Toshiba, and perhaps Vista SP1?
I'm really hoping this is not a hardware issue, since the monitor is recognised etc....

What port did you use?
The external monitor (analog) port or the D-video out port?
As far as I know if you have used the external monitor (analog) port then you should choose the Analog display in the nVidia -> current display
Then you could use the button FN+F5 to switch between the both displays.

Boot camp installation attempt yields black screen, also phantom monitor

Hey all,
So... I went to install XP on my early 2008 MacBook Black. I've done it before, so I figured there wouldn't be any problems (I had previously removed it). Only, when I attempted to boot from the CD... it appeared to boot, and I heard the CD drive working, but all I got was a black screen. Not even a blinking cursor. I know the CD is fine as it works in virtual machines. I attempted to use my Vista disc on my MacBook just after this and got the same result: drive access sounds, but a black screen.
Then I discovered another problem... my Mac has a phantom external display. I almost think that perhaps when I boot off a Windows CD, that perhaps it is trying to use a display which doesn't exist? I won't really be able to test it until I get home (I'm out at college) and can plug in my external display...
I had an external display hooked up in a previous installation of OS X... I pulled over the settings from that previous installation via time machine after reinstalling. That would certainly explain the phantom display. What is not explained is why I can't get rid of it. I've been trashing the plists that other threads recommend, resetting the PRAM... nothing really works. Detect displays doesn't help either. I'm wondering just what I have to do to get my Mac to realize there is no external monitor. I've read numerous threads on this, all culminating in no avail. Any advice, anyone?

I tried resetting SMC too... still nothing. I almost think I should try booting from OS X's install CD, and see if the phantom monitor exists there... if it does, then I know there's a hardware problem of some kind. If it's not there, then I should reinstall OS X, and pull stuff over from Time Machine manually instead of automatically this time. I'm guessing that if I pull over user accounts automatically that it will recreate the problem. My only problem with doing stuff manually is that I'll have to jump through a few hoops to get my iTunes library back.

Black screen on HD monitor when using DVI cable

Hi there,
I've recently purchased a Samsung P2270 monitor with the intention of playing HD content from my mac mini, however, it would appear that this isn't possible.
Connecting it up with a 18pin DVI-D cable doesn't seem to yield anything on the screen. Wondering if it could be a faulty monitor, I tried the DVI-VGA cable instead and thankfully managed to get something on the screen.
But being human, i'm still set on trying to get 1920x1080 resolution out of my mac mini!
Checking the display tab within System Preference, it would appear that the maximum resolution option i have on my mac mini is 1280x800. However, I have an Intel GMA 950 graphics card on board, and it should be able to handle HD ie 1920x1080.
I've got a grandfather of a mac mini - Intel core duo 1.83 GHz, purchased it in 2007. Running Mac OS 10.4.11 Tiger on it.
Has anyone any experience hooking up a similar mac mini to a HD display with success? Is there any way around this problem? Or am i doomed to looking at black bars on either side of my display till i upgrade?
I'd be grateful for any advice/suggestions

Welcome to  Discussions!
Looking at the specs of your monitor, I see that the connection is listed as a DVI-I connection. You should try a suitable cable before giving up.

Macbook Pro - Black screen and external monitor

Hi there,
I'm new here and it would be great if anybody could give me some advice about my Macbook Pro issue. First of all, I would like to thank all the contributors for your comments. I'll go to an Apple Store asap, but I'll really appreciate any of your comments so I'll know more about this issue and how to manage it.
My device details are:
Macbook Pro / 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 / 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3 / Macintosh HD / Mac OS X 10.6.8
NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M
Other connected equipment:
HP Monitor Pavilion 22xi (with an official Apple adapter - projector's plug)
Wacom tablet Bamboo Fun (USB connection)
I usually work with graphics software (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.), since I bought my laptop (3-4 years ago) it has worked faultlessly. But I started to notice some problems about two weeks ago. The problem is basically always the same: After some hours of work, suddenly and randomly (it tends to happen when I click on a button) the screen turns off but the computer is still running (I can hear the fan and hard disk). As I said I use an external monitor, and it also turns off at the same time. That's why I thought it may not be a problem with the screen, it's probably related to the graphics card ?¿?
The troubleshooting steps that I've tried are:
After waiting several minutes and without any response, I have to restart my laptop. When it turns on a Panic Report message pops up. It says that a severe problem made me turn the laptop off suddenly (or something like that). The Panic Report says something about "kernel_task", I have no idea what it is, just in case it could help to clarify more (I've printed all these panic reports).
I also have to mention that this laptop gets really hot on the left side, which I reckon it's a very common thing in these devices. I have to use a desktop electric fan to provide relief to both of us
I've also disable the "Automatic graphics switching" tab in Energy Saver menu.
Despite all of this, the screen and the external monitor are still turning off.
Any idea?
Thanks a lot,
Clara

I would suggest that you run AHT using Using Apple Hardware Test. You can either reboot the machine and press the D key, or use your second Grey disk. This would potentially show you any HW problems.
Typically these older machines exhibit GPU issues. There is a third-party application called gfxCardStatus, that can provide some insight as well.
This may or may not help if there are GPU issues - About NVRAM and PRAM (reset NVRAM/PRAM/SMC).
It is possible to enable remote access (via SSH) and even if the screen is not working, the machine can be accessed remotely. Please see System Preferences -> Sharing.
Can you run a test with both the lid of the MBP and the external monitor plugged in. Does your external monitor disconnect, but the internal one still show a screen?

HT3964 connected new external monitor to macbook pro, was working but now have no power, black screen in laptop. monitor purchased with advice from tech and set up also. Worked fine for an hour and then quit

Have just connected a viewsonic external monitor to macbook pro 10.6.8, had everything up and running fine for about an hour then the macbook quit. No power (ws running off power source) Have I killed my macbook? Help!

Aha, all is good.
I went to Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays
and to home/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays
and deleted all SyncMaster.icc files. I did leave behind one SyncMaster file in the home/../Displays which had an old date and I new was ok.
Rebooted, plugged in SyncMaster, and a new icc file was automatically created in the /Library/../Displays folder.
My display works normally, now.

Dual monitors on the ATI Radeon 9600 XT black screen on 2nd monitor

i have problem on second monitor , it always turn black during my work, and in a second it turn back to work well again, about 20-30 minutes a time .
can anyone here give me some help ? it really make me go crazy....
Thanks!
POWER MAC G5 DUAL 2.5 +ATI Radeon 9600 XT+2 SUMSUNG 205BW
The one connected to the ADC no problme.

LOGIC CAT-
My guess is either a bad cable or bad adapter on the second monitor. Try switching the monitors and see if the problem follows the monitor.

Ubuntu (grub) hangs on a black screen on vga monitor.

I am currently attempting to triple boot a mac mini 3.1 with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04. Currently both Mac and Windows work properly. Refit is installed. When I select Ubuntu on a screen connected to the dvi port everything works fine, however when I unplug that screen and plug a vga screen into the miniport, the refit screen shows up but after selecting ubuntu the screen just goes black. This happens before grub even shows up which leads me to believe it is more of a mac issue than ubuntu.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi
Did you try to install the OS using another disk or maybe you could boot the notebook using a Live CD like Linux Live CD or WinPE or PartBE?
Please check this because your issue could be related to faulty notebook part (maybe HDD) or to faulty Recovery disk.
Now its not possible to say what could cause this and therefore you should try booting using other disk.

I was trying to extent monitor, I get black screen on laptop and external monitor :/

so I have this hdmi cable that plugs into the DVI on my external monitor.
I did get the screen to show up just on the external monitor and that's it. Now, when I boot up my lap top I get black screen on both monitors. Uh oh.
I've unpugged the monitor, batter, all that stuff.
I think it's possible I clicked on don't display external monitor or something, but not it's not displaying anywhere.
I have an idea pad of some sorts w/ windows 8. I don't think it's 8.1
thanks
-Hayes

so I got this resolved. the guy at the computer store hit f10 and then enter. he did this while the screen was black
shouldnt' it just detect that there's not an external monitor? but even when there was a monitor connected, both screens were black.

Black Screen for Install of Windows 7 on Mac Pro Early 2008

I have a mac pro early 2008 with lion 10.7.4 and boot camp 4.0.3 I think... anyways the problem I have is when I am in boot camp, and configure the HDD partition, then the machine reboots... when it reboots and starts up boot from the install DVD (legit retail copy) I just get a black screen on both monitors. No curser, nothing just a black screen, same as I get when the machine is off! the little white LED lights are on and nothing...
I can hear the DVD spinning up and down a few times then that just stops too...
I have tried resetting the PRAM, pulling the power and watch battery inside for a few minutes, I tried the "fix" that is online for the imac problem with the answerfile and got no different resutls with anything, still the same probelm.
I have the OEM ATI Radeon video card 512MB.
* as a side note, I was never able to download the windows support drivers prior to trying the install... I tried and tried for the last two days so this time I "unchekced" that box and just went for the install...
Any help will be greatly appriciated, thank you :-)

I get that dreaded black screen following partioning of my drive on the Windows 7 install on Mavericks on a Macbook Pro late-2008 (MBP5,1) but I'm at a loss to work out where the solution lies in the thread! ;-(
To date I've spent about 5 days going back and forth trying all sorts of combinations, including the obvious:
- removing bootcamp 5 and reverting to 4
- installing the imac drivers
A HUGE thanks if you can offer any help as I'm at the end of my tether...!

[solved] Black screen when booting installation

The basic problem. I have a HD6870, my monitor is connected through DVI (& my second one through HDMI). No integrated graphics.
After I try to boot the x64_86 version, the screen goes black after 'booting kernel'.
Things I've tried:
radeon.modeset=0 (gives drm:radeon_init [radeon]] *ERROR* no UMS suppot in radeon module)
radeon.modeset=1 (black screen)
nomodeset (drm:radeon_init [radeon]] *ERROR* no UMS suppot in radeon module)
disconnected second screen (black screen)
video=SVIDEO-1:d (black screen)
i915.modeset=0 (I have no intel, but black screen)
acpi=off (doesn't work either).
It is driving me crazy. Can someone help me?
EDIT:
Solved by upgrading BIOS

Should this be on or off?
Edit: Only thing remotely close I could find was legacy USB settings, but those just disable my keyboard in the arch install.

1 videocard
Lone_Wolf wrote:Another possibility :
Maybe linux does send output to a wrong monitor. Could you try booting with only 1 monitor connected ?
I initially thought the same, tried with DVI, HDMI single and double monitor, but it didn't work.
Lone_Wolf wrote:if still black screen with 1 monitor , try a different connection (your card has 4 it seems : hdmi, display port, dvi-d & dvi-i ).
See above.
EDIT 2: putting HD in AHCI mode makes just the screen black. Backlight stays on. In Knoppix and Ubuntu it makes the kernel hang at booting kernel _
