How do I insert 3 seconds of black screen before my movie starts?

I tried command-A to highlight all clips and audio in hopes I could just shift over to the right, but it won't let me. Any help would be appreciated!

You can insert a Placeholder and or duplicate your first clip and select replace with Gap. Look in the pull down menu for - Insert Gap

Ipod touch 5th generation battery screen with lightning bolt locked cannot charge or restart. ive tried everything from new cables attempting to shut down but stays at screen for a few seconds then black screen again over and over

screen locked up and shows the battery with low red and ligtning bolt and cannot hard shut down or reset just stays there for a few seconds then black screen. hooked up to computer and itunes doesnt recognize it or even shows that it is pluged in. looked and made sure nothing is broken or metal in ligting port or on cable which would prevent it from accepting a charge. ipod is only a month old and seems like a waste of money if its so hard to try to get an explanation of why this is ive been tryning to get an answer from apple for a week now.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT4061 ???? How do I power up my iPad? My iPad won't power up. It just stays a black screen. Tried the start up button, the home button, pressing them down and holding.

???? How do I power up my iPad? My iPad won't power up. It just stays a black screen. Tried the start up button, the home button, pressing them down and holding.

Could be the battery is completely drained. Use the charger that came with the iPad and plug that into a known good wall outlet. Let it charge for at least an hour. Then, while it is still plugged in reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
If the device restarts let it remain on the charger until the battery indicates 100%. If it still will not turn on Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

My ipad has a black screen and won't start, any ideas?

My Ipad 1 has a black screen and won't start, any ideas? It is charged.

If Paul's advice doesn't work try this.
Hold down on the sleep button AND the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.
BTW ...In order to start up under normal circumstances you only need to hold down on the sleep button for a couple of seconds or so until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Dell Latitude E6510 Black screen before posting during cold boot

When I cold boot my laptop,I get about 10sec of black screen before the laptop posts..1st gen. i5 core,4gb DDR3 80GB Intel X25-M Nvidia NVS 3100 graphics with 512MB RAM.

I received a new XPS13 9343 last week and unpacked it yesterday (Friday 4/24/2015). When I first opened the lid and powered it up there was no display. It was completely black, not blank. I went to close the lid and when slightly jarring it I noticed that the initial screen appeared but briefly.
After analyzing the symptom I decided:
It is a physical issue - not firmware related
While I apply very slight pressure compressing the lower right corner of the display it will function
It is the LCD backlight that is intermittent as the image is perfect otherwise and turns on an off with pressure not quite instantaneously
Once the laptop warms (2 minutes) the display becomes completely reliable and unaffected by lid motion
My bet is that this is a problem with the conductive rubber mounting strip used to make the many connections to the LCD panel. Envision a very thin foam double sided tape with the characteristic that current can only flow front to back through the thin dimension of the tape. Adjacent pads (connection points) are not shorted by the tape and pads (carefully) aligned on the other side of the tape are connected. Its very ingenious actually.
In my case probably the circuit for the LCD backlight is at the end of a strip on the bottom right. It didn't properly bond during production. Probably once current flows through it (when I compress the display or hold the lid in just the right position) the adhesive warms and grabs hold. It probably doesn't take much to pass the low currents involved. I wonder if after some use or exposure to warmer operating conditions if it might not finally bond permanently and the issue go away?
Anyway this is what happens when you present an engineer with a problem, it gets over analyzed. You would like to think that within hours of posting this a bunch of production engineers will run over to all of the fixtures in their facilities that are used to assemble the displays and make sure there isn't one out of adjustment. Uneven clamping force or some such science.
The problem now for me is in finding out if I need to replace it and how much of a pain that is going to be. Unfortunately now I don't want to migrate from my prior laptop if I am going to have to send this one off someplace.
In some way this represents a security feature. Haha. I mean there is a trick to getting the thing to come up that I would only know. Another level of security at no extra charge. Still, one wishes to not have a quality concern floating in the back of your mind.
But, this might be your issue too. Anyone else have this experience?

How can I insert the mysterious iPod Atom to make a movie iPod friendly?

Hello. I've been looking for an answer to this problem all over the Internet and haven't found anything! An Quicktime GURU out there?
THE PROBLEM:
I have several mp4 video files that iTunes won't sync to my iPod. They play well on QT, FrontRow and iTunes but then iTunes says "This video cannot be played on this iPod".
Yes! you know that message too...
We all have gotten that message before, even when we know the video will play perfectly on the iPod because it was encoded on H.264, AAC, etc, etc...
Doing a little research I came to the fact that the problem is that these videos are missing an "iPod Atom Tag" which tells iTunes that the video can actually be played on the iPod. Seems quite simple but wait, there is a catch...
Nobody knows how to insert this iPod Atom in the mp4 file!!!
I found a nice UNIX app called AtomicParsley which let's you edit these tags but then I'm missing the important information... The iPod Tag code and the value which is supposed to be set to...
THE QUESTIONS:
Does anyone here has any idea on how to push the iPod Atom inside the mp4 file? Will AtomicParsley do the job?
Which is the code of the iPod Atom? Is it uuid?
Which value should I assign to it?
Is there anything else I have to do to the files to make them iPod friendly?
Most people would say that the easiest way is to use Quicktime Pro to re-encode the files but then the files grow in size, they loose some quality and features and not to mention that it takes forever to re-encode them again...
I believe that this app, AtomicParsley can do the job if I know which tags to modify and the values I should set them to but that's the information I'm missing...
I would really appreciate if someone can point me into the right direction and give me a little help with this matter. Thank you very much!

I appreciate your comment but I guess you didn't exactly understand my problem...
Handbrake is a program that extracts the video from DVDs and encode it into a movie file, usually mp4 files like the ones I need to fix. It won't work with movie files that you already have on your computer.
Here is the deal again:
1 - I have mp4 files in my HD. I am not encoding from my DVDs.
2 - AtomicParsley is a program that can insert atoms in an mp4 file and it only takes a few seconds to do it and the movie itself remains untouched. I believe this tool will work fine but...
3 - I just need to know what to tell to AtomicParsley. That is the iPod Atom code which I think is "uuid" and the value it must have which I really have no idea... :P
Using this tool will insert the atom in a few seconds so I don't have to re-encode everything from scratch. Each encoding takes a few hours for a whole movie. Why spend many many hours re-encoding when you can solve the problem in a few minutes...
Again, thank you for your comment. I'll keep waiting for an answer and keep the re-encoding option as a last resource.
Alec.

How do you solve the so called "Black Screen Of Death " On an iMac Intel 27" EMC 2309 and 2374

According to various forums I've visited , this is very common issue that Apple has not addressed. I've read that it could be a logic board issue on the graphics card or a LED driver board issue or even a temp problem. My friend just got this issue resolved on her MacBook Pro but it cost her $500 to have it taken care of. This problem is making Apple look very bad in the eyes of it's customer's. I won't post some of the negative comments I've come across on these forums as a result of consumer frustration with Apple not taking care of this. Let's just say it needs to be addressed. Oh and the " Black Screen Of Death " is what people are calling it, not sure of the official problem name but it's an intermittent tendency of the display to go completely black while the OS is running fine.

Black screen before Windows installation

I have already installed Windows 7 before and I had no problems with the installation. The reason why I decided to reinstall Windows is when I was trying to start BootCamp I only got black screen. This started to happen after I did hard reboot. I did this because Windows freezed.
I deleted Windows on my MacBook and then I tried to install Windows again. After BootCamp Assistant splited hard drive (1st part for Mac OS X, 2nd part for Windows) OS X shutted down and after that I heard Mac sound (sound when You start Mac). And then I can only see black screen ( also there was a console cursor for a second ).
Why black screen started to happen?
and
How can I avoid it?

Black screen before startup

Hey I've got a hp pavilion dv6 that has just gone down on me. The display just went black and now when I turn it on it just stays black screen, no light at all the screen. I've tried unplugging the battery and AC and holding down the power button for 30-60 seconds. Been trying for 30 minutes now, also tried reseating the memory in the laptop. The caps lock light is on BUT NOT FLASHING. The F12 light is on aswell as the light closest to the cd drive, the 2 lights in either side of the AC plugin is not on. But the AC is working though cause I can tun it on while battery is out and AC is in
Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks in advance
Nicklas Ovesen

Hi @ Nicklas4600,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums, Now just to help me out a bit here with your issue.
When you press the power button you get no response except the LED on for the F12 button and on either side of the power connection as well as the optical drive LED. These LED's stay on constant or do any of them flash in any way. As well could you post back with a little more information for me.
1) Is there any fan sound when you press the power button.
2) When the optical drive LED comes on is there any noise coming from the drive.
3) What are the colour of the LED's.
Other information that I will need is your complete model and product number. Here is a link that will show you where to find this information.

Black Screen before installing windows 7. Lets solve once and for all.

I have a late 2008 macbook pro and have been trying to install windows 7 through boot camp for a number of days now. I have read every forum on the internet and have tried every popular solution (i.e. resetting pram, smc, unplugging, changing screen resolution, etc.) and nothing has worked. I know there are many other people with this problem but none of them have solutions. I had windows 7 installed a few months ago but it stopped working and I had to delete it. Just yesterday I reinstalled Snow Leopard and still nothing. I created the partition and tried to install windows but it just goes to the blinking cursor for one second, then a black screen. I have tried everything possible and nothing works.
Please lets try to get this problem solved because out of every single forum on the internet, none of them have solved this problem.

I think after weeks of searching I have finally narrowed it down, based on what I have read, to a disk drive problem. It seems to be something wrong with the EFI or the entire disk drive in general. I am taking it to the apple store tomorrow and I highly doubt they will do anything.
