Blank Screens in Slideshow - Fixed!

As others have mentioned in previous threads, I was having intermittent problems with blank screens appearing in Lightroom 1.0 slideshows. Sometimes every slide, other times alternate slides. It appears my problem was caused by Microsoft's Intellipoint 6.1 mouse drivers. These drivers include a feature called "Instant Viewer" which enables a mouse button to be programmed to display small screenshots of open application windows. This feature seems to interfere with Lightroom slideshows.
I rolled my mouse driver back to Intellipoint 5.5 because the 6.1 drivers are apparently also causing crashes in Photoshop CS3 as discussed here:

Ever since the driver rollback, my slideshows have worked perfectly.

  • IPhoto 9.6 is not playing my slideshows properly. Some of the photos show as thumbnails, but appear as a blank screen in the show

      Since upgrading my computer, I have fixed the loss of sound links to my slideshows. Now I find that some photos within the shows are just appearing as a blank screen although their thumbnails show in the slide show. One or two have had a message about the photo being edited in an earlier version of iphoto, and suggest that I create a duplicate photo to re-edit. Considering the hours that went into creating these slideshows, redoing them is NOT an option.Very disappointed that iPhoto can't run its earlier work. All slideshows have photos from only one photo upload per show, yet it seems that only part of the show's photos are affected.

    Give this a try (be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot):
    Do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
    3 - if necessary repeat with Option #1, Repair Permissions.

  • YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

    YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads, if it's even loading at all.
    I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

    You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

  • How do I fix a initializing problem with my macbook pro? I only get to the blank screen with the apple logo and the "processing something"sign... it just doesn't start the system....

    How do I fix a initializing problem with my macbook pro? I only get to the blank screen with the apple logo and the "processing something" sign... it just doesn't start the system....
    Please help

    If there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
    You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
    Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
    Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.
    Most commonly used backup methods
    Sometime that won't work and you need to do more

    Hello pichastos,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where your camera is displaying a black screen, please follow the information outlined below.
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping  (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

    After installing the new software to my iPhone 4S , my dream zoo either will not start or when it does it has a blank screen that has a few icons on it that wont work. How can I fix this is it possible to go back and reinstall the older software ?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • Duo Displays Problem on MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) Resolution 2560x1440 and 1280x800, Sometime 2560x1440 is blank screen and must restart to fixed it

    Dear all,
    I found some problems for using Duo Displays with MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) display and Samsung UHD Display (U28D590). I use resolution on my macbook is 1280x800, Samsung UHD Display is 2560x1440 And Connect with Display port to mini display port.
    But I use sometime found always blank screen on Samsung Display and I tried to unplug mini display port and plug it again but it is not working until I shutdown and restart my macbook pro, my display back to working.
    I want to fix this problem because it is very trouble for my working a lot.
    Thank you very much
    Phot

    The symptoms I'm getting now, and I'm not sure if they're any different, suggest that for some reason Mountain Lion thinks my display resolution is higher than what it is, as wether I'm turning AirPlay on or off, it keeps changing it (on the MacBook) to what looks like maybe 1080p.

  • Blank screen in itunes store-please help im not very technical and when i click on my itunes app the screen is blank how can i fix this please?

    Blank screen in itunes store-please help im not very technical and when i click on my itunes app the screen is blank how can i fix this please?

    See if any of the following fix it.
    Try logging out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'Sign Out' on the popup and then log back in.
    If that doesn't fix it then try closing the iTunes store app via the phone's multitasking bar and see if it works properly when you open the app : double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag iTunes from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and the click the home button to close the taskbar.
    A third thing to try is a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • Slideshow - Problems, showing blank screens, etc.

    I'm experiencing lots of problems with Slideshows. Sometimes it's showing me blank screens with just the Color Wash, other times it's showing each alternate photo in my current selection, i.e. 1,3,5 and 7 of an 8 photo selection. It does work correctly on some occasions though.
    I've got a simple single screen setup and I'm running version 1.0 of LR on Windows XP SP2.
    Can't see any posts along these lines - is anyone else experiencing this?

    There were quite old posts about this kind of thing. Nothing recent. Checkout this search:

  • Blank Screen- Can't find answer to fix it.

    I went to listen to my ipod the other day and when it started up, it had a blank screen. I tried to restart it, but when it came back up for the second time, now the screen is two toned. One half is white, the other grey. Plus the Apple logo no longer appears. I've tried plugging it into my computer, the computer reads the ipod. I've tried retoring the defaults, the screen is still blank. I can't find anything on the Apple.com site. Has anyone had this happen and how do I fix it?

    Try and force the iPhone into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
