Color bars in itunes 12

How can I get rid of the color bar? I can't read the type.

Had exact same problem, driving me crazy and then I found solution:
iTunes Preferences: General and make sure that the "Use custom colors for open albums, movies, etc." checkbox is checked.
Give it a few and that will fix it.

Can I show a color bar instead of a color bullet in iCal Monthly view for all my events in all calendars?

In the Monthly view of iCal the only events that show a color bar in the event is the Birthday Calendar. All other events in all my other calendars only show a color bullet next to the event (unless I click on that event which then shows as a color bar). I would like to know if it is possible for all the calendar events to have a color bar in the monthly view instead of just that tiny color bullet.

Greetings Judith,
Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed. By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
Example:
Today is 4-16-2012.
If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone. If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
Once the events are removed go back to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
Hope that helps.

If Other (the yellow bar) is too big something is corrupted. The only solution (that I know of) is to restore from your most recent backup using iTunes (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766).

How can I add a color bar scale to a CW3DGraph

I am using the CW3Dgraph control (parametric surface plot) in a LabVIEW program I have written to graph the the strength of an electromagnetic field over a sphere. The plot color map style is set to use the "color spectrum". I would like to add a color bar scale to the graph so the user can determine the approximate field strength by the color of the plot. Is there an example that could help me with this, does anyone know how to add a color bar scale, or is there some other way to indicate to the user the color's level?

I think if you search this forum you will find more than one approach to this quest.In this thread you will find an earlier discusion of the same nature that has a couple of methods you can try out.

I can no longer see the top menu bar in itunes. where you see the status of syncing. where you have the option to click and move a song you are playing to the middle of the song, etc.

Flashing Color Bars - major frustration

I'm a recent convert from Final Cut Express to Final Cut Pro. I've got a brand new setup using my 15" Powerbook, a Miglia Director's Cut SCART to convert my Firewire to analog video for use with an external video monitor. I'm currently working in PAL with a PAL monitor.
I just created my first project in FCP; it's set up as DV PAL and I've imported just one PAL DV clip into the timeline.
My problem: about every 57 seconds I get about a one second flash of colorbars on my external monitor. This is driving me bonkers. It doesn't matter if FCP is playing back the clip, or simply sitting idle.
I've discovered if I start another app and FCP is no longer the active app, these same bars come on the external monitor all the time. When FCP again becomes the active app, my external monitor again correctly shows video...but with that once a minute color bar flash.
These bars also don't look like what I'm familiar with in the past. They consist of a single row...there's no second or third row of patches. The first column is half-width and white, followed by the colors and last column is half-width black.
This flashing is driving me nuts. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?...and how to stop this?
Thanks

Andy, your response is well thought out. Shortly after my last post, I discovered for myself these bars are indeed being output by the Miglia box. When I shut down the computer for the evening, only the Miglia box and monitor remained on...and you guessed it...I still had bars on the screen. So the bars themselves are coming from the Miglia box.
Also, as you deduced, this apparently occurs when the box receives no input. The next logical deduction is that Firewire communication is being interfered with. I was suspicious of that myself. At the moment, I have no anti-virus software installed. Furthermore, I was certain to have all programs shut down and used Activity Monitor to insure any unnecessary processes were shut down as well. (The only thing running was Snaps Pro, which I shut down; everything else appeared to be system stuff.)
I've used two different cables and two different Firewire inputs. One configuration had the Miglia box on its own bus with nothing else connected. None of this made any difference.
So at this point, I'm getting suspicious about the Miglia box itself. I'll give them a call today and see what they have to say.
Thanks,

Recording color bars to a CF card

want to record color bars from Premier to a CF card to play back from Canon 5d iii. i choose Export and then H.264 format, but it won't play back from the card,on the camera.

haven't tried anything like that...but if I did try it , for my nikon d800 ( uses mov h264 for video , same as your canon I think ), I would export as mov and use codec of h264. should be able to play the mov file in your camera.
if not, can you just use a still image for your purpose ? you trying to compare color bars with some kinda color patches or something when shooting ? or trying to somehow deal with white balance ??? who knows.. anyway, you can save a frame of the color bars as a jpg or tiff or whatever your camera can see...

Problem with the iPod memory status colour bar in iTunes 7

Hello
The iPod memory status bar in iTunes (the one with different colour bars that show the proportion of total memory filled by music, video, photos, other) says that 26gb of my 30gb iPod is filled, and 26gb is free. Clearly that cannot be the case as that's way over 100% of the iPod's memory. Resetting the iPod has not solved this problem as when I fill it back up with songs, videos etc this glitch returns. Can anyone help please?

I tried formatting the ipod with windows! in the end of it windows says that it was not able to format the drive properly. then I click ok, open itunes, restore the ipod, try to sync again and have the problem that after a while the whole thing freezes... no more errors....just from the moment i disconnect the ipod manually from the cable, everything gets back to normal life again! I do not know what to do! do you guys think, my computer is too old or maybe my ipod's broke???
I'm despairing people...never had problems like that until itunes7! I tried as well to close all the other working programs with the task manager... doesn't change it!
Thx for the help!

Colored bars in BAR Chart

Hi all,
I want to display a bar chart which is having different colored bars. For example, i am now using equipment wise bar chart, if i am having 50 equipments, all 50 equipments should be displayed in different colors in bar chart. Now i am getting output for those 50 equipments having same color. I tried by giving that equipment column in DATA MAPPING -
> LABEL COLUMNS, I got only 32 bars which is in different colors in output. Kindly give me some solution for this.
thanks in advance

You may have more than 32 bars but they will be the same data series and therefore the same color. For separate colors the limit is 32 (I think you'll see that pens 17-32 repeat the colors from pen 1-16 in the default template).
It sounds like your best bet is using ValueColumn for your numerical field and then LabelColumn for the string name field. This way, depending upon the results returned it will provide good coloration between bars, but it may also be decreasingly relevant beyond the first 'x' items. A normal Pareto chart might use the notion of top 10 or top 20, which would be well within the 32 color limit.

Color bars in FCP

I have made a DVD with the FCP NTSC color bars in order to calibrate my TV but no natter how high I turn up the brightness (black level) there is no way for me to see super black distinct from black. I also note that when I view the color bars on my Apple monitor the super black and black fields both have RGB values of (0.0, 0.0, 0.0). My observations suggest that the FCP color bars are not correct, since they can't show me whether I have set the black level too high. Is that right? If so, where can I get a correct file of color bars?
Thanks,
John Link

The same color bar files have been used in FCP for a number of years now. If this were the case, there would be a lot more noise about it.
I would think so, but with the FCP NTSC color bars I am not able to perform step 3d of the file for which you provided a link:
Adjust the Brightness control down until there is no visible difference between the left and middle PLUGE bars. The right PLUGE bar (11.5 IRE) should just be visible. The 3.5 (Superblack) and 7.5 (NTSC Black) bars and background should all appear to be the same level of black and blend together evenly. The 11.5 bar should just barely be visible.
Since the left and middle PLUGE bars are identical in the FCP NTSC color bars, there is no visible difference between the left and middle PLUGE bars regardless of how I set the black level.

Colored bars in clip after apply a little motion

I get these colored bars in my clip after applying some motion effects (kern). Rendering does not solve. Any idea?
Here is a screenshot:
http://kttns.org/nkzgy

I had a very similar problem a while back, but I never found a solution. I think it was somehow linked to using an external USB drive (which is definitely a bad idea!).
Are you using an external drive to store your media? If so, what type and how is it formatted?

Why are photoshop icons showing up as color bars in AE6 even though the files are not missing?

I have imported the file numerous times, they actually show up in After Effects. If I render it renders fine, however the icons next to the photoshop files show up as color bars.
Can anyone hep me figure this out?

Thanks for replying... Yes everything works fine but the project panel icons and layer icons appear as color bars. Weird! I'm using CS6 and I'm on a MAC PRO OS X 10.8.5. I attached a screen grab

Color Bars Out of alignment after QT Export

I am currently running Final Cut Pro 6.0.3.
Recently I outputted a few files to send to a post house so that they could export a project to tape for me because I dont have an HDCAM deck.
My sequence settings were:
1920x1080 HDTV 1080i (16:9) Compressor: TGA
I found these settings under my easy setups titled as:"Blackmagic HDTV 1080i 59.94 - 10 Bit RGB 4:4:4"
I exported a few options for them just in case they couldn't take one or the other.
The outputs I made were:
Q.T:
"HD Uncompressed 10-bit 1080i60"
and
Targa Image sequence through my Quicktime Conversion Output.
When I checked the colors on the q.t's color bars vs's the targa's they were completley different. The q.t's were messed up.
If anyone has any suggestions as to where I could have went wrong that would be a great help!
Thanks,
Jesse

(P.S. I did change the Settings of the FCP from 720p60 to 720p30 about half way through the project, but that shouldn't affect the export.)
About the time you changed FCP Easy Setup from 720p60 to 720p30 DURING Export?
As you stated on this post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2384569&tstart=0
I wouldn't think that's the best time to make a major change.
