Events visible at splash screen, then disappear

Suddenly events on my additional internal drives are disappearing from the Event browser. Goes like this:
Imported several clips in new event on big, almost unused internal drive (2 TB).
Used clips from the new event in a new Project, edited fine and closed FCPX.
Launched FCPX next day, now all events are visible only during startup (Splash screen showing), then disappearing. Clicking on the hard drive name only shows "No Events exist on this Disk", although all FCP related files and folders are there. Project is still working fine.
Lion did not improve the situation.
Moving the event to the Movies folder on the main internal drive makes it show up.
I did everything people with external drives missing in the event browser tried (check journaling, permissions, renaming of certain files, deleting old mp4 files in non-FCP folders etc). No luck.
Somebody suggested that there could be a problem when there are several Western Digital drives in the computer (whis both my internal drives are). Anyone have any more info on that?
Cheers,
Rabbe

Ok - solved it.
I had two Word files on the drive from an earlier project which contained the word "final" i the file name.
Also changed the drive name from anything resembling "VIDEO" or "FILM" to something completely different.
With theese changes the drive with all events now shows up in the Event browser.
Apple, Come on!

Premiere ele 11 get splash screen then nothing

Premiere Elements 11: Version 20120921.B275.435760
Dell Latitude E6430
Intel Core i5-3210M @ 2.5GHz
RAM 8 GB
320 GB SCSI drive with 30% available
Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit
I have been using APE 11 for over a year now with no difficulties. Yesterday I installed a new Logitech kb/mouse and trackball and APE quit working. It will start the splash screen then completely stops with no error message.
I watched task manager/processes and can see the APE process start and then it goes away as soon the splash screen disappears.
I uninstalled the Logitech drivers, rebooted and no change.
Next I deactivated and deleted APE and scanned with PCMatic, Malware, REGPRO, and Hit Man Pro. All are run from the local drive. No problems out of the ordinary were found.
I rebooted the computer then downloaded a fresh copy of APE 11 from the Adobe website.
Installation was done with virus checker and firewall turned off.
I am still having the same problem.
Photo Elements and Lightroom both are working fine.
Anybody have a suggestion. I have two client videos that I need to produce and more coming so I cannot afford to get behind.
Thanks
Dave

Let us cut to the standby deleting the Premiere Elements 11 Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole 11.0 Folder in which it exists.
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
11.0
and in the 11.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 11.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path cited.
When the splash screen (Welcome Screen) appears, do you see a progress bar with the features being loaded or nothing? If you do see this activities, on which feature does the loading activity stop?
We will be watching for your progress.
Thank you.

Add On...have you looked at the issue with and without the antivirus and firewalls disabled? I know that you had them disabled during installation. A ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) may be indicated.

Screen flashes... or an application goes full screen then disappears??!

A weird and definitely not-normal phenomenon has been happening lately. Somewhat rarely (every 5-6 hours) it seems like my screen flashes. Very briefly.. less than a second. It almost looks as if theres some application that goes full screen, then disappears, or maybe the screen just flashes. Something is definitely not right.
I don't see anything abnormal in my console though... nor in activity monitor. I've checked for loose connections, etc, and ran hardware tests. Cleared SMC and Pram. I consider myself quite computer savvy, and I install almost no applications, and keep everything nicely optimized.
I'm using a Dell 3007WFP-HC display, FWIW.

Some people started having trouble with 8800GT after 10.5.7. Some even went back to 10.5.6 (good reason to always keep a backup boot system with last OS version).
Or start worrying it is the 8800GT going. Easy to test for IF you have an alternate graphics card handy.
Heat. Summer. 8800's don't do enough to kick in and properly cool the card on its own - single slot cards are not good at cooling and venting.

Computer will boot to splash screen then reboot

I have a small problem with my new computer. During startup my computer gets to the splash screen then it will reboot. It does this every time. I have tried booting into safe mode but is does the same thing. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.
Specs.
Win 98
AMD 1800 XP +
KT3-Ultra-ARU
256 megs DDR
40 gig Maxtor
40 gig Western digital
Aopen GF2 400mmx
300watt CSI power supply

Measus is absalutley correct in the second possiblity on the list. You have a corrupted registry. In order to fix it..you are going to have to boot to dos either with your Win98CD or a Win98 boot disk. Preferably with a boot disk, because it allows more functions when you need to access your hard disk. Get to a C:\ prompt and change directory to C:\Windows or whatever else your Windows installation directory might be...then use the 'scanreg' command like so...C:\windows\scanreg.exe /restore
This will tell the Registry Restore program that you wish it to scan for backups of your windows registry and restore it to a previous "good" version. Just choose one from a date when you know that your system booted fine and choose to restore from that date. Reboot the computer normally after the restore has finished. If it still doesnt work, try the same thing again from a different backup date..If it still doesnt work..you can either manually edit the system.dat and user.dat files from within Dos (really not fun if you don't know exactly what your looking for) or reinstall (dirty install)overtop of your existing Win98 Install. Your Data and Programs will not be lost..but the programs will have to be reinstalled to function.

Splash screen then it disappears and nothing

trying to launch flash media live encocder i get a flash screen then it vanshes then nothng.

Problem seems to be fixed. Following the advice in another thread on here about PPro actually crashing in 10.9.2, I deleted the CUDA framework (I have an iMac with AMD graphics card) and it seems to work OK now.

L512 Wont Boot , Splash Screen then stuck blank screen and Fan in full throttle

I was using the laptop, then it went to suspend mode due normal timeout.
When it came back, the fan start to spin full throttle but it was functionating beside that, normally.
I restarted but then it never boot again.
This is the process where it gets stucked
Boot to Splash Screen, Beep, then a black screen and the fan start to spin at full speed.
(In the post in diagnostic mode, shows no error, pass the memory check, shows the info of the processor )
I tried this:
Retired Hard Disk,
Press 60 Seconds (Reset BIOS) - without battery and power cord
Press 10 times the power button an then 30 seconds -- without battery and power cord
Visually there is no damage in the usb ports, maybe i will need to disassembly to get a better view to check if there is a short somewhere.
With this symptoms , what should else i try. Could be a memory issue?
Thanks for any help you can provide me.

Thanks to the Mod!
It happens that if i wait for about 30 secs, then it will boot up, asking a proper boot media.
I was testing it and was workiing fine, except for the Fan working at full speed, Not suspending or shuting down or Hibernate. Only blinking power button led. So a rude disconnection /Battery Extraction needed to acomplish full shutdown.
But Now in the bios diagnostics splash shows
2201: Machine UUID is invalid
The bios shows only 0s in the uuid section.
i was looking for some imformation about this problem, and i found tah can be solved using some kind of floppy for servicing the laptop.
I ve already downloaded a copy, Havent tried yet, But plan to do some test. as soon i can get some spare time.
It appear tha some comand will let me regenerate the UUID, and with some luck, reflashing the bios will solve my problem.
I'll update as any new steps performed

File open/download dialog box flashes on the screen, then disappears.

I am upgrading to Firefox 17 (from 3.5.2) on Linux SuSE SLED 10. I am only moving to Firefox 17, as SLED 10 does not support anything higher than that and it is not feasible to upgrade my entire my OS.
My issue is that when clicking on a file on a website, the file dialog box (open with/save) flashes on the screen for a split second then disappears. For items that I have handled by specific applications in mimeTypes.rdf, it does the specified action. However, any file type that I have designated in mimeTypes as "alwaysAsk", I get this issue. I do not have this issue in FF 3.5.2 and I have gone as far as using my 3.5.2 mimeTypes.rdf and prefs.js files on my 17 install and it does not help.
I have looked through many forums and have not been able to determine how to fix this or whether it is fixable in 17.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Soundtrack Pro won't load... flashes quick splash screen, then quits.

I have a question... about how to get Soundtrack Pro working again.
It worked fine before, but now when I try to load it up, the splash screen (the logo and company info) pops up REAL quick, so fast you can barely see it, and then the program just shuts down abruptly.
I tried removing preference files and reinstalling, then uninstalling with FCS Remover, then reinstalling. I also tried reinstalling all of Final Cut Studio, but didn't use FCS Remove to uninstall before doing so. Anything short of another complete uninstall/reinstall that I can try to fix this issue?
My machine: silver MacBook, 10.5.8, 2.4GHz, 2GB RAM. Plenty of hard drive space available. NVIDIA GeForce 9400M.
Many thanks in advance.

Mine started doing this recently. I had STP 3.0.1 and FCS 7.0.2 installed on my Mac Pro running 10.6.3 (with all updates installed). I tried deleting the STP preferences and AU and effects caches. Still no go. Tried to restore it from my Time Machine backup but I only started using TM a week ago and that didn't help either.
Here's the Console log:
4/20/10 12:10:14 PM Soundtrack Pro[457] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting
4/20/10 12:10:14 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[132] ([0x0-0x36036].com.apple.soundtrackpro[457]) Exited with exit code: 1
I've got another copy of FCS/STP on another machine (MacBook Pro with 10.5.8), and it's running FCS 7.0 and STP 3.0. One odd thing I noticed is that the old STP application file is over 200MB and the new one is only 85MB . So I copied the old (3.0) app over the network and replaced my new one (3.0.1) with the old. Problem solved; it works now, but I hope I don't have serial number problems.
Apparently the upgrade to 7.0.2/3.0.1 has screwed things up. Good grief. And this is just off the Quicktime Export debacle of a couple weeks ago. What's wrong with Apple? I didn't used to have this many problems.

Only Splash screen then it crashes

I'm testing a new App, I download the iap file and drag it to itunes, it download OK in the iPAD but when I clik on the App icon it shows only the Splash screen for few seconds and then the ipad's screen return to the original status showing all the App icons, it also happens when I click on the Adobe viewer icon but all the other Apps are OK, Any bug ?? some suggestion ??

The image sequence require a lot of RAM to run. It shouldn't be topping your available RAM out (which should be around 10MB) but with the app launch and the immediate launch of the image sequence it is possible there is a RAM issue.
Unfortuently there isn't any good way to test RAM usage that I know of (if anyone else knows a good way, without a jailbreak, I'd be happy to hear about it) but I would suggest completely turning your device off (hold the top power button until the "Swipe to Power Off" appears) and turning it back on and then testing. If that doesn't work, I would rebuild and remove the image sequence from the first page. That will hopefully tell you if it's a problem with the build or with the content.

Tecra M1: boots to Toshiba splash screen - then constant beep!

when 'switching on', the Toshiba splash screen appears, then nothing else happens. Any key pressed after that, just makes a constant beep. I purchased the machine from a dealer, 2nd hand (500) with XP Pro pre loaded, all updated etc, everthing worked fine till switching it on yesterday. This is my first laptop, and first time using this forum, 'be gentle please'

Hi Alan
I think what Nicky said might not apply to the M1. The trick probably works for Phoenix bios machines, but the M1 has Toshiba BIOS and will only enter the BIOS settings when ESC is pressed at a certain timewindow.
Back to your problem, you say the Toshiba logo is shown then othing else happens.
Most common is that the machine stops (but is still listening to keystrokes) when there is a problem to establish contact with the IDE-devices. The devices have a certain amount of time to respond correctly before the BIOS times out and gives you an error message.
Did you try to leave the machine like this for say 1-2 minutes? Did you look at it the whole time?
If not, please do. It is possible (although not certain) that you have a problem with either the HDD or optical device. Try removing the optical device from the Selectable bay. Any change to the problem? If yes, then there is either a problem with the optical drive or the IDE channel #1 (number 2 in human language). That means motherboardproblems.
So to clear it up and summarize: most probably you have a problem with either the HDD or the CD/DVD or the IDE channels on the motherboard.
The best way to check this is to look at the machine and wait some time and see if there is a timeout error message from the BIOS.
Good luck
Tom

Boot to Platinum splash screen then freeze

I'm suspecting the MB has gone south, but would like some assurances that I am on the right track and that I haven't missed something obvious.
The system is fairly generic:
Antec Sonata Case w/stock 380W PW
MSI MB
A64 3200+ Stock HS&fan
512Mb * 2 OZC RAM
CDRW, DVD-rom
WD 120 SATA HD, WD 40GB ATA
SCSI card
ATI 9800 Pro
Systems been running fine since July, today, needed to reboot after installing a printer driver and it froze on the reboot.
Before I cleared the BIOS it would come up with the BIOS version, and the processor description and then halt. After clearing the BIOS, it comes up with the Platinum splash screen and halts there. All the fans are going including the PS.
There is no response from the kybd, as in numlock/scrlock/capslock don't respond (no lights on the kybd.)
I've tried the following in steps and trying to boot between each change:
- reset BIOS
- swapped out my memory sticks
- disconnected the optical drives
- disconnected the HDs, one at a time
- removed the SCSI card
Have I thought of everything that I could try? Does it sound like the MB is dead or is there a chance it could be the CPU? or something else?
Thanks in advance,
Zen.

Contribute with some thoughts :
The board post bios logo , aka ' cpu works , gfx works . If not all would be dead.
But it freeze :
This can be memory or memory slots e.g vdimm ref voltage to dimm slots duff(not in spec)
It can be parity check that bios post does on the memory.
It can be halt caused by "halt on all but keyboard" i.e PS2 , mouse , fdc controller .
When this cmos reset was done , was the board totally isolated , i.e
all devices removed including memory , gfx , cpu , drives , pci cards .
(if it's a bitch leave the cpu as the only item mounted)
I recommend clearing the motherboards cmos while it is totally bearbone
and also with the 20pin/4pin power connertors removed .
After it is cleared just connect 20pin/4pin power + cpu + speaker to it and the powerswitch (no mem , no gfx , no drives , no kb , no mouse ).
Fire up , and listen to the beep code , compare it to award beeps that its correct.
Shut down and add the mem .
Fire up , and listen to beep code , compare it to award beeps that its correct.
Shut down and add the gfx .
Fire up , and listen to beep code , compare it to award beeps that its correct.
Shut down and add the keyboard .
Fire up , and listen to beep code , compare it to award beeps that its correct.
Continue adding one item after the other .
Codes:
Repeating High/Low (siren):
CPU Either the CPU is not seated properly or the CPU is damaged. May also be due to excess heat. Check the CPU fan or BIOS settings for proper fan speed.
Repeating (endless loop) :
Memory error Check for improperly seated or missing memory.
1long, 3short :
No video card or bad video RAM Reseat or replace the video card.
1long, 2 short :
Video adapter found but error .
Either video adapter is bad or is not seated properly.
.. , no luck here my guess is mobo gone bad .(if you are sure PSU still is delivering all voltages +3.3 ,+5 ,+12 , 5vsb , -5v , -12v and the PS_ON + pwr_good circuit/logic works)

Splash Screen then nothing else (Please Help)

I am doing a project for school and this is the first Splash Screen I have done. My splash screen displays and exits ,but the application doesn't start.
Here is my code for the splash screen:
public class SplashPanel extends JWindow {
private int duration;
private int running;
/** Creates a new instance of SplashPanel */
public SplashPanel(int d) {
duration = d;
public void showSplashPanel(){
JPanel content =(JPanel)getContentPane();
content.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
int width =875;
int height=450;
Dimension screen = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
int x = (screen.width=width)/2;
int y = (screen.height-height)/2;
setBounds(x,y,width,height);
JLabel label = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("chefsong.gif"));
JLabel otherLabel = new JLabel("Welcome to South Park!");
otherLabel.setFont(new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD, 20));
Color oraRed = new Color (156, 20, 20, 255);
content.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(oraRed, 10));
setVisible(true);
try{
Thread.sleep(duration);}
catch
(Exception e){}
setVisible(false);
public void showSplashPanelAndExit(){
showSplashPanel();
System.exit(0);
and here is the code for my application:
ublic class DisplayContainer extends JPanel implements spInterface{
private SplashPanel sp;
/** Creates a new instance of DisplayContainer */
public DisplayContainer() {
setLayout(new GridLayout(1,1));
sp= new SplashPanel(10000);
sp.showSplashPanelAndExit();
public void setImagePanel(){
ImagePanel ip1 = new ImagePanel("kyle14.gig");
ImagePanel ip2= new ImagePanel("kenny2.gif");
ImagePanel ip3= new ImagePanel("stan14.gif");
setLayout(new GridLayout(3,1,5,5));
ip1.setDelay(20);
ip2.setDelay(30);
ip3.setDelay(40);
add(ip1);
add(ip2);
add(ip3);
validate();
public void displayIt(String s){
if(s.equals("Start")){
System.out.println("The start button was clicked.");
System.out.println("Cartman says, Let's begin the damn race.");
else if (s.equals("Reset")){
System.out.println("The reset button was clicked");
System.out.println("Kenny says, I can't believe you are making me start over");
else if(s.equals("Stop")){
System.out.println("The stop button was clicked");
System.out.println("Chef says, Why are you stopping the damn race?");
else if(s.equals("Exit")){
System.out.println("The exit button was clicked");
System.exit(99);
repaint();
I actually have othe classes including an interface, main, and image panel. Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Your DisplayContainer constructor calls showSplashPanelAndExit()
which will cause the application to end because of System.exit(0). Is
this what you intend?
(When you post code use the "code" tags described here:
http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting Type [code] at
the start of your code and at the end. That way the code will
be formatted and readable.)

Starting After Effects gets "Alert" on splash screen, then quits.

I'm running Mac OS 10.7.3, with an i5 processor running at 3.7Ghz, 8GB of RAM, and a new ATI 6870 1GB graphics card. when ever I start up Adobe After Effects CS6 I get this error:
AE then quits. any ideas?

Remove OpenGL plugin and try to load the application again
Drag the AE_OpenGL.plugin file from the Applications/Adobe After Effects CS6/Plug-ins/Extensions folder to the desktop.

Splash Screen never goes away

I'll post this again because a lot of people are having this same problem, but to my knowledge no one has solved it.
In Compressor 3.5.1, when you load Compressor the splash screen appears but never goes away until you click "About Compressor" and then click on the splash screen, then it will disappear. I have trashed preferences and the problem persists.

I finally found a fix that helped me out on 2 different problems:
First was the issue with the green bar appearing on the right side of the frame.
Second, the Compressor Splash screen never disappeared after it had finished loading. Once you clicked on About Compressor then the splash screen it would finally disappear. This didn't cause any performance issues.
Thanks to monoschluzz in the following post for the directions to fix this nagging issue:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10575848#10575848
Here are the directions he provided:
Stop all rendering in Compressor. From the Compressor Menu choose "quit all background processing" and close Comressor. Open a Finder window, choose " got to folder " from Finder's "go to" menu and type
/var/spool/qmaster/
Done that you're in the "Qmaster" folder. In that folder there are one or more weird named folders (random numbers & characters - i.e. 76646663-DD71D83A)
Delete that weird named folder (NOT the Qmaster folder itself) and restart Compressor.
At this point I was able to render clean mov's without nasty green pixels.
Hope that helps!

VS013 Hangs on the Splash Screen

When opening Visual Studio 2013 from the Task Bar (Windows 7), the application will show the splash screen then hang. Nothing happens and the splash doesn't disappear. The only way to close it from this point is to terminate from task manager.
Strangely, it never happens when I'm opening a solution, only if I try to open a new instance of VS without a solution (and annoyingly, occassionally even that will work).
This also happened with VS2012. It also happens if I try to Merge Changes to the TFS Power Tools dialog.
I've tried disabling extensions, and also using /ResetSettings, but I have been unable to determine a consistent cause for this.
How can I determine the exact cause of the hang?

Hi ObsidianPhoenix,
>>Nope, didn't make a difference. it's still happening. Both from the start menu, and from the pinned shortcut.
>>Strangely, it never happens when I'm opening a solution, only if I try to open a new instance of VS without a solution (and annoyingly, occassionally even that will work).
If it still has this issue, could you tell me how you use it to open a solution in your side? You said that it worked well when you open a solution, do you mean that you start it from the pinned shortcut or start menu? If you open it as the admin from the
start menu, how about the result?
To make sure that whether it is the add-ins' issue, please run your VS in safe mode.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms241278.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
If it works well in safe mode, I'm afraid that it is related to the add-ins or the extension tools. You'd better disable or remove all add-ins in your VS IDE.
In addition, you said that the VS2012 still had this issue, do you install the two VS versions in the same windows? Please make sure that your window has the enough configurations for two VS high version. When you open it, please also make sure that your
task manager if free.
Please also close all third party software like anti-virus or others.
Best Regards,
Jack
