Clips become grey after clicking on them
I uploaded some video and wanted to create a new movie. However, each time I click on a clip in an attempt to drag them to the pane below, they grey out and won't move or play. Once I try the same thing with a different clip, then the original shows up again and the new clip greys out. HELP!!!

Just as Rich839 writes:
(I write like this)
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows:*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Hard disk is untidy: Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
• Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08)
• Program miss-match: iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
• Program miss-match: iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match: iMovie’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
iMovie pref file resides: Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named: com.apple.iMovie.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
QT 7.5 might be problematic – try QuickTime 7.4.5

Fcx4 bin clips are not appearing in the viewer after clicking on them.
fcx4 bin clips are not appearing in the viewer after clicking on them , i need help getting them to appear in the viewer.
I have the same issue. I am using apex.oracle.com for some test applications, but for last couple of weeks when I login and click the "Application builder" I could not see my applications there (around 4-5 of them)! It says No applications found.
Neither I have any application groups setup nor do any criteria given in "Application" search field under "Application builder".
The only way I could access some, if not all, of my applications is to pull it from the link under the context box "Recent" (which you can see in the right hand side of the "Application builder" page.)
Any help is greatly appreciated. This issue is not a show stopper as I could still pull out my critical applications from the recent link, but its definitely a worrisome issue.
Thanks in advance

How to make smart shape buttons turn colors after clicking on them?
How to make smart shape buttons turn colors after clicking on them? I am using buttons as links to learning paths and would like users to know which buttons they have allready clicked on when returning to main menu.
This is reply I got from Adobe support. I will try and let you all know what works best:
Here is the workflow which you can follow to achieve this functionality.
Puspendra: You can choose image button and then choose from the available image buttons, or click on the folder icon when you select the image button and choose from the Gallery of Captivate 6.
Puspendra: Few image buttons change color on hover or onclicked, these effects are predefined in them.
Puspendra: Or you can edit that button on which you are working, from properties Panel.
Puspendra: The Post and Cancel button on this thread seems like a transparent button in Captivate with different fill and stroke color, and transparency is also less, and with corner radius of 0.
Puspendra: You will find these all optionns, when you will click on that button and then click on the properties panel. -
Photos from mobile shrink to tiny after clicking on them to edit.
Hi
I can't edit the photos. They are fine and the same size as all the other thumbnails in 'events'
and their folders. The problem only arises when I click on them to edit them. This is very recent -
all older photos from the same phone are fine.
It happens with Leopard since an update, and Snow Leopard, and iphoto 9, 10 and 11.
I need a new phone but don't want to buy one if this is going to happen again.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.First try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it does then the library is not the culprit.
If the problem does not occur in the new library then your current library is the problem. If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a viable backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

I have recently exported two photo collections. However, one of them seems to have been corrupted. All the photos have been resized after I exported them to lightroom.adobe.com. In fact, whenever I try to open any of the images in Lightroom again they have all been resized (or cropped). Is there anyway of recovering the original edits I made. I can re-adjust the images one by one but there are over 1000!
Thanks
MikeHi dj-paige
Thanks for replying.
I guess "corrupted" isn't the correct term to use. The problem is that I have been editing photos in Lightroom (well over a 1,000) and then put them in two collections, one called Birds (300+ images) and the other Dragonflies (1000+ images). I then uploaded these collections to Adobe-Lightroom so that I can view them online. However, when I view the Dragonfly collection, either online or in Lightroom, they have all changed, having all been cropped beyond recognition. What I want to know is, 1) has anyone experienced this problem before and 2) is there a way of recovering the photos with all the edits that I have painstakingly made over the past few weeks. I can go through the photos one by one and change the crop so that they appear fine but there are over a 1,000 images and it would take several weeks to go through them again.
Cheers

Service specifications screen for service activity becomes grey after PO
Hi All,
I would like your views/comments on the following issue:
I am creating a service activity PS04 , it takes me to the service specification screen,then I am using the single item to create the painting services. The PR is generated for the activity. Till PO is not created for this service activity I am able to add other services as required functionality.
The issue is that once i create the PO for the service activity PR line item, the whole screen of the service specifications becomes grey i.e not editable . can you give me the inputs why that so?
In the ideal scenario & the requirement is that, it should grey out for the service lines of the PR for the lines where PO is created not the whole screen.
please provide the suggestions / solution to this issue.
Thanks in advance
RamuHi
Thanks Virendra for your effort in this replication in IDES. I checked the service activity & its settings which are correct and it is not the issue.
Do you have any idea of the configuration / user exit in case of PO is created it will not allow the change mode of the PR for service activty generated from projects.
Thanks in advance
Regards

GlassPane becomes inactive after clicking JInternalPane's resize border
Hi all,
I wrote a program which has a JFrame with a JDesktopPane on it's content pane.
Then I add two JInternalFrames on the desktop pane, and my own glass pane by JFrame's setGlassPane() method.
In my glass pane, I intercept all mouse events for the glass pane and If the event comes up NOT on the JDesktopPane, I convert and forward the event to component beneath the glass pane.
This almost works fine except two problems.
One is that once I pressed mouse button on the resize border of a JInternalFrame, the glass pane stops forwading event. It seems to become inactive.
Second, if I move mouse cursor on the JinternalFrame's resize-border, the cursor does not change to resize-cursor, while it changes to resize-cursor If I remove the glass pane.
Attached is the sample program (in one file) to recreate the problems.
If glass pane is working, the message "forward <EVENT_TYPE> event to <COMPONENT_CLASS_NAME>" will be shown on stdout.
I have a serious and very complecated reason to use glass pane. So I must overcome thease problems anyhow.
I appreciate any idea or help. Thanx in advance.

My B & W photos become negatives after clicking on "edit"
I have scanned and imported several B&W but one keeps showing up in IPhoto Ok, but becomes a negative once I attempt to edit it>
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You're seeing this because you scanned them as grayscale photos which iPhoto doesn't support. You can rescan them as color with the RGB color provile or use another application to convert them. However the conversion will have to take place outside of iPhoto. Export the photos to a folder on the Desktop and drop the folder onto this Automator workflow application that I created: *+Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile+*. You can download it from Toad's Cellar.
Once you've converted the files import them into iPhoto (you'll have to tell iPhoto to import the duplicates) and check them out. If all is well then delete the first batch of scanned B/W files. -
Google web listings don't change color after clicking on them
I don't know if this is a Google or a Firefox problem. When I do a search on Google and then click on one of the sites they list, the listing used to change from blue to purple so when I went back to that page of listings, I'd know which I had already clicked on. Now they just all stay blue.
I don't know how long this has been going on. But I've been meaning to write you about it for a while. I don't know if it happened after an update. I haven't found a Firefox setting that turns that feature off and on.
HelpRepairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but longer in Leopard.

If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

So I keep trying to sync music to my iPhone from iTunes, and whenever I select the album the sync goes by really fast and nothing goes onto my phone. Then when I click "On this iPhone" it shows the songs, but they're grey, and I can't click on them. Help?
Ok, sorry. And yes, I just restored my iPhone as new and tried to put all the songs on there before I even restored with my previous backup, but it still does the same thing... even when I just checked the option to sync only "selected music or videos". How's that possible?
P.S. After I tried syncing with checked songs only, nothing showed up under Music on my phone and this message popped up in iTunes: "The iPhone "..." could not be synced because the sync session failed to finish." If you could, please tell me what that means, thanks. -

Why am I suddenly unable to see pdf (on iMac) when I click on them ?There is is just a mid grey blank screen .I have sent pdf to my Blackb and I can read it there ,so the file is OK .I recently tried to down load a recent version of Adobe reader from a government site -could this be the cause?If so ,how do I uninstall it ?
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
