"Display Unavailable" red canvas screen-forum solutions not working. URGENT

I a few days ago I started getting, in the midst of editing, my canvas going red with the message "Display Unavalible" in it. After this, the sequence would not play. If I close the sequence and try to reopen it, I get an error window which just says "error:out of memory". I found this problem on the board and tried three solutions: deleting all of my render files in render manager (didn't work); trashing FCP preferences (didn't work); checking for any CMYK stills in the timeline (there were none, but there were greyscale clips, I removed them, still didn't work ); and making the sequence offline, then reconnecting all clips and re-rendering (that worked, then it happened again after working a while).
I am in a very tight deadline situation for the screening of this film and must find a solution to this problem! Other sequences in the same project appear to play okay. It seems to be this sequence only. I have done a few things differently in this sequence than I have in others. Maybe they could provide some clues as to what might be causing the problem.
1. I upgraded Magic Bullet for Editors and have applied several effects (problem started after installing MB, for what it's worth).
2. I am also using Natress filters (including frame rate conversion/deinterlacing) on top of Magic bullet filters.
3. I have dv source footage which I have enlarged up to 300%, sometimes with filters applied to those clips (yes I know this is highly unorthodox but this is a punk rock movie and I am experimenting).
The last thing that I did was remove frame rate conversion from all Natress effected clips that also had Magic Bullet Filters on them, reduced all clips to 100%. Then when I when to reconnected the clips the **** thing did it again.
Is there anyone out there who can help with this? I can pay for extra assistance if necessary!
Thanks so much,
Patrick

Thank you for that, I also found this article, silently hoping that this was not the case. On one hand this is good news, as I can get it repaired for free, while on the other I now need to find a way to back up my data without my screen.
As a side note the computer screen did light up last night, on a random restart. However, it once again will not turn on, and I may have lost my chance to back up my data. The symptoms fit a burned out video card, so I guess my next step is heading on over to the apple store.
Thanks again for the article, I'll be printing it off and bringing a copy with me.

  • IChat 4.0.7 Screen Sharing does not work.

    Me and my friend both have identical machines, the intel iMac 20" 2.66mhz
    Software is identical
    iChat version is identical (4.0.7 (616))
    Video Chat works perfectly, our internet connections are fantastic, no issues there.
    Both using Netgear routers with uPnP enabled.
    Internet Sharing is OFF
    Firewall is "set access for specific services and applications" and iChat and iChat Agent are added.
    I conclude that Screen Sharing *does NOT work* as advertised.
    Apple, I am most disappointed, get it sorted for next release please.
    Who else has witnessed this epic failure?
    Thanks,
    edit
    Also, what is this iChat AV nonsense? Where are the iChat 4 forums?

    Thanks again Leo for your help,
    Yes I was refering to the screen sharing in system preferences/sharing.
    Checked the video menu:
    Screen sharing enabled
    Camera enabled
    microphone enabled
    so no that's not it! Was hoping it was something simple like that too.
    Both netgear routers dont have any ports forwarded, just upnp enabled.
    The frustrating thing is, both macs are new, one is only days old, and neither mac has had it's setting messed about with or anything.
    It would be great to find the solution, 100's of people having similar issues if you google it.
    *edit*
    Just a thought, would the type of account make a difference? At the moment we are both using the type of accounts that iChat creates when you select "get an iChat account" (creates a [email protected] login)

    Depends on your model TV.   Read your TV user manual.  The newer models have "how to hookup" instructions for computer & games.
    You can also do a forum search as well as a Google search.

  • My lock screen button is not working and i turned off my iphone with assistive touch. Now i cant turn my phone back on!

    I used assistive touch to turn off my iphone, because my lock screen button is not working, so now i cant turn it back on! What i did was, i went to assistive touch, then i held down the lock screen button to turn it off. Now i can't turn it back on.

    To turn it back on when you use assistive touch, all you have to do is plug your iphone into a charger and it will power back on

  • What's going on with ios8... Screen rotate does not work anymore, wifi doesn't work very well anymore and apps are crashing or running slow... Come on Apple sort this mess out

    ssince I updated my iPhone 5s to ios8 ive had nothing but problems...
    first the the screen rotation is not working... Checked the settings and  lock is off.... The wifi is intermittent, some times it works sometimes it doesn't....
    the he iPhone is really slow now, like really labouring.... It hangs and crashes all the time.... I have to close apps down completely because they won't work from quick launch anymore.... Even writing this the phone is labouring.... It's like my old 48k spectrum.... I don't expect this from Apple and when you spend £400-500 on a phone you expect it to work and play propperly....  come on Apple you need to sort out this mess of a update.... Ios 7 was no bother......

    Same issue here... iphone5S 64GB.  It's intermittent.  Sometimes the rotation works fine, sometimes it doesn't, but most of the time it doesn't work.
    The first time I figured out it wasn't working was when all newly-taken photos and videos were showing up in portrait mode though I always hold in landscape mode when photographing.
    Rotation lock is disabled (tried toggling it on and off).  Tried recalibrating the compass on a whim, no effect (although my compass seems to always require calibration when it's launched now).
    This issue only started happening after upgrading to iOS8.  I did a reset/restore through iTunes rather than an OTA upgrade.
    UPDATE - power-cycling the phone seems to fix it temporarily.

  • My passcode is working to unlock the screen but does not work with restriction passcode. Should they be different?

    My passcode is working to unlock the screen but does not work with restriction passcode.
    Tried it several times but it did not work, though i can use the phone and all features even after 13 failed attempts.
    Should restriction passcode be different from what i set?

    There is no default restriction password. If you didn't set it someone else may have. If you can't find it then you may have to follow the steps here:
    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or ...
    Do you have a backup which might not have this restriction passcode? If so restore to that backup?

  • Save Panel Image / Screen Image does not work as an Executable

    The Save Panel Image / Screen Image does not work as an Executable.  It looks like there is a conflict with the Path, since the Screen_Image.exe is launched as Screen_Image.vi.  I've tried this function both ways with the path name change Screen_Image.exe AND Screen_Image.vi.

    Any chance you might be able to post some code illustrating what you are talking about?

  • I am facing a new problem after a missed call. i phone will get freez on its lock screen after a miss call. Its seems that its main screen touch is not working properly.  This problem occurs after each and every missed call.

    I'm using iphone 5s with ios 7.1.2  & I am facing a new problem after every missed call. i phone  gets freezed on its lock screen. It seems that its main screen touch is not working properly. It should be bug introduced by apple . This problem occurs after each and every missed call .There is no patch announcement for this issue yet. There are few workaround to fix this issue: Reboot your iphone. But its  irritating to reboot the phone frequently after each issue....

    Hello dipthebe,
    Check out the articles below go through troubleshooting steps for your iPhone when the screen is unresponsive. You may want to try and restore your iPhone as a new device and then test out what happens when you miss a call to see if the issue is still present afterwards.

  • The display the progress of ongoing downloads is not working on firefox

    The balls are rotating, I go to save the file but for some reason, the download display arrow wont light up and the file wont save.
    Here's an example. I went to this video on you tube.
    As I click on the download helper all the files are there.
    Yet when I go to save the file (into my download folder, normal the green arrow would light up and the file would download.) nothing happens anymore. The download progress section is empty and the arrow is grey.
