FCP 7 Why do I get these horizontal lines on my playback?

I'm working in Final Cut with 1920x1080 Apple Pro Res footage. For some reason I keep getting these
horizontal lines when I playback footage on my timeline or viewer. What is this?

When I export to quicktime there are no horizontal lines. It's only a problem in FCP.
So when I transcode my footage for FCP to Apple Pro Ress 422 (HQ) I should click 'deinterlace video' rather than 'interlace scaling' Is that what you're saying?
Thanks for your help!

Why do I get faint horizontal lines when I print from elements 12 mac

why do I get faint horizontal lines when I print from elements 12 mac

Hi Ben,
I can't reproduce that behavior. The only two things I can think of at the moment are (1) you accidentally added a shortcut as a panel shortcut instead of a diagram shortcut or (2) the name of the object you specified isn't for the "Multiply" node, but for some other node (you said "Multiplication" in your initial post) that can only be dropped in certain places (i.e. maybe it's a node that is only valid in Simulation diagrams). Can you post the following lines from your LabVIEW INI file so I can look into it further:
QuickDropDiagramShortcuts
QuickDropPanelShortcuts
Let me know,

Edit: Yeah, what he said.

Getting waved-horizontal lines running through my photos...Happens not during time of working image in photoshop...but appears when sending to files or other applications, such as after printing back to files...? Mac checked out OK.

Getting waved-horizontal lines in my imagery just after working in photoshop...sending to files as with after completing some applications, such as printing. Nothing is wrong with my Mac...Issue does not occur every time I go into using Photoshop?

Doesn't matter what kind of file...size, jpeg or tiff, black and white as color, etc...Something is in the software issue for my upgraded CS 5 Photoshop, running on a Mac OSX with Leopard version. The CS 5 Adobe software was in an up-grade from CS 3. Best I can do and I thank you for any suggestions based on your experienced background as I can only offer a general interpretation with the waved-horizontal lines that run across some of my images from being in the Photoshop mode from Bridge.

What are these horizontal lines on my footage?

Hi Folks,
I just got myself a new computer which is more stronger and i have just finished moving all of the old files on the old computer to the new.
I opened Adobe Preimere Pro and found that some of my footage had these horizontal lines on them (See Picture).
Everything is fine however when the time bar goes to the footage, all there is, is just black.
How can i fix this? What is the problem?
Thanks!
Andy.

Actually, these diagonal lines indicate that the source footage is shorter than that indicated in the timeline.
This can typically happen if you have placed footage in the timeline and subsequeently cut it with an external editor, AE, for example and reimported the shorter material under the same name.
To lose the diagonal lines, drag the end of the timeline placeholder left (to trim) until they are have gone. .

Why am I getting these lines?

Hello everyone.
I have asked this before here and was helped out very well. I have followed the same steps I was told before which worked before but for some reason is not working now. Here is a clip of a Demo I made for a client but I keep getting these lines when someone moves. http://www.simplycaptivating.com/hddemo2.mov
Now someone on this forum had previously helped me with this problem on a diffrent clip, and it worked great. But now when I follow those same steps with this clip I still get the lines. Does anyone have a clue as to why?
Thanks for the help.

What you say sounds like an interlacing problem - interlacing shows up on computer monitors as it is designed for TV. Interlacing is usually much more noticeable during high movement.
However: I usually see interlacing on my monitor, and I don't see it in your file. The only lines I see are vertical ones in the chandelier shot, but I think they are light ray artefacts (and they look fine, a bit like rain if anything).
If it is the interlacing, then you need to apply a deinterlace filter. However if your friends plan to watch it on DVD on a TV, it may not need it. Have you tried burning it as a DVD and watching it on a regular screen?

Major CS5 bug where Smart Objets get thin horizontal lines??

Our prepress company has come across and proven out a rendering bug in Photoshop CS5 for Mac. It has caused us to consider totally avoiding CS5 until it's fixed. We are finding that CS5 is putting in several randomly generated thin horizontal lines about a pixel in height and varying widths, in cases where CS4 does not. Some files get these lines when converting live "smart objects" from one ICC colorspace to another.
I am providing a link to a specific file that shows proof of this bug. The example file has an embedded sRGB profile. To see the bug, set you working RGB colorpsace to AdobeRGB, and set your Policies to "Ask". During opening, USe the embedded profile. Then convert it to the AdobeRGB 1998 colorspace using File Convert, and do not rasterize the smart objects. You will see lines in the lower right hand corner after it's converted. Now go back and rasterize the smart object layers first, and these lines will not show up. And now do the same with CS4, without rasterizing the smart objects and you will not get lines. CS5 bug, CS4 no bug.
Let me know what you find on your end. Can any of the adobe employees document this for me and get it on the fix list?

I also head a Graphics/Prepress department at a medium format digital print shop, with next day service to the casino industry. My two cents worth, CS4 did not have this issue, CS 4 was a Cocoa app and CS5 a Carbon app, to me that is not a reason why a major software company like Adobe has multiple leading products (PS, ID, Ill) that cause these kind of problems. I can't count the times my print opp's have come back with a file showing lines. Now, I have told my designers that we should also be looking for the lines, now that we know about it.
I have printed fabric before and it is a pain to print one and see if there are lines in it, but which is more painful, printing one to test? Or trashing $3k worth of fabric? I know this works for one image printed x times, but multiple images printing a couple each to fulfill the job would be a huge ordeal. Adobe doesn't understand that yet. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, maybe we should all start calling tech support daily.
I saw a post suggesting rasterize pdf's in lower PS to work around, clearly an ad agency/freelance solution, not a production house solution. Opening and closing PS12 and PS11 somewhere around 15 to 20 times, per work station? We process somewhere around 40 minimum pieces of art a day, and sometimes double that. I could rant on this suggestion all day.
The bottom line is Adobe has no clue where it is coming from, they are more worried about the iPad/mobile industry right now.

Why am I getting these emails?

Does anyone know why I'm getting spam that is not sent to my address. The mail arrives in my mailbox, but does not have my email address in the recipients address line. It usually has a made up address that has part of my address included in it. This just started happening on my .Mac account a couple of months ago. Is there anything I can do to stop it?

Hello Matt.
This indicates the spammer is entering your email address and probably a number of others in the Bcc: field when addressing the message.
All email addresses placed in the Bcc: field do not appear and are invisible to all recipients. The only addresses that are visible to all recipients are those placed in the To: or Cc: fields.
Copied from How .Mac filters spam.
The .Mac mail servers filter spam, but some unwanted messages may still get through.
No single strategy is completely effective when it comes to managing Unsolicited Bulk Email (UBE), also known as "spam". People who are intent on sending spam are ingenious at coming up with ways around any filtration schemes.
In addition, see Why was I "spammed" at my .Mac Mail address? which applies to any email account and How HTML Email Messages Relate to Unsolicited Commercial Email ("spam") which applies to any email client such as the Mail.app.

Why do I have white horizontal lines on my Macbook Pro Retina?

When I am using my 15" Macbook Pro, there are often white horizontal lines that run across the screen. It usually happens when I am watching a video, typing, scrolling or just sitting on the desktop. There are days where the screen is perfect and there are no problems; there are also days where it happens so frequently that some videos becomes unwatchable due to the distracting lines flickering and flashing on the screen. They don't stay all the time but I'd love to know what the problem actually is. Thank you for reading, and please help me out.

Hi there JohnRendleman,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

Why am I getting data error lines in my image when it loads in LR 4?

I have LR 4. When clicked to enlarge an image (a RAW image) it took a moment to load, (as usual) but when it finished there were multicolored strait horizontal lines in it. What is not working correctly? Is it Lightroom? Is it my external hard drive? Is it my computer? I know there can be SD card errors, but I don't think that's it since I think it has happened to pictures that were okay on the card. I think it is happening between my computer, external hard drive, and lightroom since I think I have seen this error appear on photos I have viewed in LR pre-error, and then the errors appeared. If any one knows the source of this problem that would be appreciated! This could be a dangerous problem if it happened to a valuable photo.

The above muskrat photo was one of a series of 9. Just now I transfered the 9 from my external hard drive to my computer, and then imported them into lightroom. Now, of the 9 that I imported to LR from my computer (copies of the originals that are stored on ext hard drive) 3 of them have lines. Only one of the series have lines on my ext hard drive. So it it a growing issue inside my ext hard drive > computer hard drive> Lightroom system. Does that give any more helpful information to work on?

Getting faded horizontal lines on pics

Just installed a new color cartridge (even though printer did not say old one was empty) trying to solve this problem. Top 1/3 of photo prints fine, but bottom 2/3 has orangish horizontal lines running through it. Subsequent printings improve slightly, so I figure a jet is clogged, but I find no information on the HP website about how to clean them. I removed the cartridges and stuck a paper towel down there and removed some black sludge (some seemed to be broken-down foam), but no improvement from that. How do you clean the inkjet heads on this printer?

The printheads on the cartridges used in the Officejet 7210 printer are built into the cartridges. The symptoms you described sound like what could happen if you have old cartridges (even if jus taken out of the box). Check the "Warranty ends" date on the back side of the package in the lower right corner, or see the date printed on the cartridge as shown in the document here.
You can clean the printheads as shown in step three of the document here.
Cartridges that are many years old may have one or more colors that "starve" during heavy printing such as printing Photo's. A fresh HP cartridge should resolve your issue.

Help! Why am i getting these JavaScript errors in Dreaweaver and how can I fix it???

This only happens whenever I try to access code view, and it won't allow me to add any more code. This is the error message I get:
"While executing DWMenu_View_Text command in menus.xml, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred:
Exception thrown in native function"
A third party tried to access my site, but the page froze, with an error message:
"Script error on line........."
I'm not sure if this has something to do with FileZilla, but now when I try to open it, I get number of error messages about, "failed to write xml file" and "Application Data\FileZilla\filezilla.xml (error 5: access is denied.)"
I've tried deleting the WinFileCache from Dreamweaver and disabled all extensions, but none of these helped.
Please help. does anyone know what's going on?

I've never heard of a Filezilla DW extension, but this is the KB article for you:

Why do I get these error messages saying that "HWNetMgr" and "HWPortDetect" are insecure start up items?

I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and two days ago I tried to install a Mobile Broadband named Tele2 Mobile partner, in cooperation with Huawei. The installation couldn't finish, so I removed the components that I could see had already been installed. But ever since I tried to install it, I get two error messages every time I start up safari, saying that I have two insecure start up items named "HWNetMgr" and "HWPortDetect". I have checked my start up items, and the only one I had was Spotify. I removed Spotify as a start object and restarted the computer, but I still got those two error messages. I have now searched through my computer several times and I just can't find these two things.
Does anyone know what this is about? What can I do to make these error messages go away? I am open to try any suggestions possible! This is a huge investment to me and I just don't want to have ruined it the first week! Please help me!

Why do I get these mail queue messages in daily.out log?

I did a dumb thing. I wanted to see if the PHP "mail" command would work from my local machine. I wrote a tiny script to send a test message (I use MAMP). The script ran but no mail was ever received. I tried it 4 times and gave up.
I look in my daily.out logs for the past few days and I find that something is trying to send the mail each day. It looks like these 4 mails are sitting in some queue to be sent (probably by sendmail or postfix?)
Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of the 4 items? Where would they be? How can I purge them. I Googled but didn't find anything that looked relevant.
Thanks,
Al
