Black screen when I want to look at my videos in Photo booth

Hey
When I open Photo Booth and want to click a video, the photo booth screen is black, pictures work fine they open and I can look at them but videos just turn black. I don't know what this is or why it's happening cause it wasn't like that at first. Help would be appreciated
Thanks

I did an update that my Macbook required and it sorted itself out, hope it works out for you.

  • IPod displaying black screen when I want to view photos

    Hi,
    here's the thing I wasn't able to find a solution yet. I synced some photo album from iPhoto to iPod nano 4gb (3rd gen). When navigating to photos with nano I see the album and inside the photos thumbnails but when I enter into the photo full screen mode to view photo nano just displays a black screen... no photo ...
    Am I doing something wrong?

  • Iphoto 9.5.1 shows mpeg-4 files as a thumbnail, but will only show as a black screen when you double click on it, other video files are able to be played and are viewable.  Why?

    iphoto 9.5.1 shows mpeg-4 video files as a thumbnail, but will not play the video.  When try to play video it shows as a black screen.  Other video files play ok- (mpeg, .mov).  What do I have to do to view them?   If I use imovie they will play, but I sometime like to view them in iphoto.  It worked before I upgraded to 9.5.1 and 19.9.2 of the operationg system.

    Select the thrumbnail of one of the videos and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option.  That should take you to the original mpeg4 file. 
    If it does then try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed.

  • Getting black screens when i open a new window through a link or try to look at the menu options.

    When i load a new window/click to go to a website, all i get is a black screen. then when i want to look at my bookmarks all i get is a black pop up screen (cant see anything). if i try to navigate to the other tabs open they become black as well

    I did find the problem... It was the DivX Plugin for Firefox. I just found I wasn't using it. I went to Add/Remove Programs and uninstalled it. FYI I am running Windows 7.

  • I want image instead of black screen when video ends.

    Hi guys,
    I am wondering how you place an image at the end of a VC video. I tried placing several images at the end of a recording but it always ends with a black screen when it is produced. Here is the video I am working on and I want the last text you see to stay on screen instead of the black screen.
    Thanks Gary Garnett

  • My does my computer freeze and the screen go black when I try to look at online videos?

    It does not matter what site I am on, if I want to look at online videos my computer will lock up and not respond. It does this on CNN, etc when looking at iReports or other online videos.

    Quit the Videos app completely, restart the iPad and then try again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button
    If that doesn't work, try this.
    Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. when the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should hopefully start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.
    And if that doesn't work, You can try this.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Black screen when wanting to change settings?

    Why do i get a Black screen when wanting to change settings?
    while in preview of a photo and ask for settings, i get black, rather than the photo.

    It sounds like your project has been bitten by the iMovie bug that discards iMovie's copy of the photo. Without that photo, iMovie can't update your previously-rendered clip. You get black.
    It's described here:

  • My Macbook Pro has a black screen when running in Bootcamp Windows 7. Since I updated the mac side my windows side now starts up with completely black screen - no prompt, nothing, Cap keys still light up as does mouse and DVD drive seems to run.

    My Macbook Pro has a black screen when running in Bootcamp Windows 7. Since I updated the mac side my windows side now starts up with completely black screen - no prompt, nothing, Cap keys still light up as does mouse and DVD drive seems to run.
    Will not show up in safe mode, will not show when started from Windows 7 DVD.
    I suspect the Mac update wiped out my PC video drivers but can not think of a way to re-install?
    Can see the PC volume from Mac side with files.
    I've looked at all the online solutions so far and have tried most of them without success. Please help!

    EDIT: RESOLVED
    For anyone else who finds their way here like I did, this link did it for me: https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/527599/windows-8-issues-solved-please-r ead-if-you-39-re-having-black-screen-and-or-flickering-/
    Specifically, the posts by Dunsany and valkyr did the trick.  I booted in safe mode, uninstalled and deleted the Nvidia driver, disabled automatic driver installation, and restarted normally.  I then manually downloaded and installed the previous Nvidia driver for my graphics card (which at the time of this writing was 335.23, rather than the latest which was 337.88), and everything is now bueno!
    Two hiccoughs along the way: First, when I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver the first time, when I restarted I got the login screen (which was a good sign), but it quickly went black again.  I powered down, restarted in safe mode again, and repeated the uninstallation process, and it worked the second time.  Second, when I started the manual install of the 335.23 driver, the computer played a sound similar to the one for disconnecting a USB device, and the screen went black.  I'd seen a lot about trying to increase the brightness (though it hadn't worked up to this point; but if you haven't tried it yet, might as well); I tried it, and it worked! So far I'm back up and running. [/fingers crossed]
    Hope this helps someone else!

  • I had to erase my hard drive and then reinstall everything back from my passport external hard drive. Now my iPhoto edit is not working. I get a blank screen when I want to edit. The photos show up in the library but I cannot edit them. Help?

    I had to erase my hard drive and then reinstall everything back from my passport external hard drive. Now my iPhoto edit is not working. I get a blank screen when I want to edit. The photos show up in the library but I cannot edit them. Help?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    *1. Permissions in the Library* : Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    *2. Minor Database corruption*: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    *3. A Damaged Photo*: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    *4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    *5. A corrupted preference file*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Getting a black screen when publishing in Captivate 4.

    I am getting a black screen when publishing in Captivate 4. I have noticed patches that care for this with later versions, but is there something available for version 4.

    Thank you for your reply, I work for Citi and am personally unable to make decisions about updating our Flash player version. Is there a patch for this issue for Captivate 4?

    Hi there, Thanks for reaching Adobe Community. Please accept my apologies for the same. Try updating your Flash Player to the latest version and then republish the project. This black screen issue was first discovered few months ago after the first Flash Player 10 release.  The link to download the latest version of flash is here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/  Newer versions of Flash Player do not result in the same issue.  Thanks!Shekhar

  • Satellite U405 Black screen when I surf in the internet

    Dear, I am a student in grade three and my laptop has a problem I want help. It will be black screen when I surf in the internet for over 3 hours. Why?
    I guess my laptop battery is the key to the problem and some friends recommend a battery web for me.
    what do you think about it?

    I have no idea why you are thinking that battery cause this issue???
    In your case I would say that your graphic card driver has crashed
    I recommend reinstalling or updating the graphic card driver to check if this would help to solve this

  • Black screen when battery is inserted

    Hi everyone. Suddenly my 2009 white macbook goes to black screen when the battery is inserted. From startup with the battery in place [and power cord in or out] the computer starts but goes to black screen after the grey apple logo and little grey spinning thing. If i look very closely i can see the images on the screen. If i remove the battery with the power cord in, the computer behaves normally. If i put the battery back in again it goes dark again. Therefore i can only run it using the power cord. The battery is fully charged, the computer charges the battery ok and I've tried a few different batteries. Have zapped the PRAM and reset the charging thing. I'm out of ideas folks ! Thanks

    OK so I have a 2008 white macbook and it will work just fine if i have the power cord plugged to it but with the batte out so with no battery placed in it now when I try to place in the battery my screen dimmes down to the lowest point it can so the screen looks black but if u look closely you can barly see the the windows on the screen
