I can't get rid of the black screen...Help

When i launch Final Cut Pro, all i get is a black screen. When i move the curser to the top of the screen i then get the drop down options showing all the option headings. I can view the main pages, but as soon as i try to do anything with the software, it goes straight back to the black screen.
I realise i have probably clicked on something i should not have done, but how do i clear it.
TY

I don't understand what you mean when you say 'I can view the main pages', but, you've probably set your video playback to full screen.
Move the cursor to the top of the screen and go to View, down at the bottom of the list go to Video Playback, and then select 'None' from the list of options.

  • Can't get rid of the black

    I can't get rid of the black under the guy.
    I can't find it in the code. No borders. No padding.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    OK change the code to look like this:
    <img style="display: block;" src="http://dealeradbrowser.com/images/salesman3.png" width="255" height="342"  border="0" alt=""/>
    Look at the bold text that needs to be added and it should work.
    Good luck.

  • How can i get rid of the black bars?

    i have shot 720 video and when editing in final cut express i have these black bars on the top and bottom how can i get rid of them to have the standard effect please help

    Check the item properties of the sequence. It sounds as if you're editing in a standard definition sequence, which is the default that FCE creates, unless you set the correct format when you first launch the application.

  • Can't get rid of the black window Remote Desktop Connection left on my screen

    MacBook Air thinks that Remote Desktop Connection is open but I can't close the black window (where it shows the IP Address of the computer I had remoted into). It left the black windown opened on my screen. I can't even click on any menu tabs or take the app to the trash because it thinks it's still open. Well aware I can use different screens on my Mac but I want that black window gone! Thanks.

  • How can I get rid of The Grey screen and boot my macbook?

    Today I was on my MacBook Pro (bought July 2011) and it went to a blank blue screen. I powered it off and tried to restart it. It loaded the apple and spinning circle but it went to a grey screen and froze there. I've read and tried a lot of different things already but nothing has worked. I did the hardware test and it found no problems. I tried to safeboot it.  I tried everything on here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570 except the last suggestion (I'd rather not have to lose all my files unless absolutely nesseccary). I also tried the "hold Command + R keys" to try and get to utilities. Anything else out there that I could try? Not sure what the exact operating system is either.

    I wouldn't assume that's the hard drive. The fact that the screen turned blue all of a sudden isn't necessarily an indication of a hard drive failure. Check out this post I made yesterday:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21756819#21756819
    My personal opinion would be to try and boot from an external hard drive with the appropriate OS installed. With a 2011 model, I would assume that should be Snow Leopard or later. AHT doesn't catch everything, and I don't know if it even does drive scans for bad blocks. I do know for a fact that it pretty much limits itself to digital interfaces and can't go beyond analog driver stages. For example, if the driver stages of a FireWire port or ethernet port are blown, AHT will report them as being OK.
    If you got hit by a transient, which could indicate an internal supply problem or a line problem if you were connected to the internet via a wired connection or you were running off the charger, there's no telling what it might have caused the drive to do (if it's the drive) and it could easily cause the screen to suddenly go to blue, but what other damage was done?
    My point is that you need to confirm what the source of the problems are. If there's a logic board problem, your drive and data may be OK. If the drive is bad, some of it may still be recoverable. The problem may very well be drive related, but I wouldn't go out and start throwing money at new parts without first confirming what the cause of the problems is.
    Hope this helped, and good luck.

  • How to get rid of the Black

    Hi,
    I have uploaded an image to pixcentral (see url below) and wanted to ask the pros how they would (using PSE 5)
    Get rid of the black (make transparent) in any part of the picture that is not part of a person. As you can see, parts of the arms and legs are as black as the rest of the image.
    http://www.pixcentral.com/images/475869wimbledon.jpg
    I have been trying various extraction tools and although I am getting better, I was wondering if there was an easier way. It would really be great if I could actually see your result (even if you only do a portion of it and post it back on Pixcentral (for example, the tennis player on the top left or bottom left).
    Thanks as always for your help on this great forum.

    Hi Bob,
    You may have simply been an unfortunate victim of downloading an image from the web.
    If you click on your link to open the image in your browser. Then go to the VIEW menu and select SOURCE (Internet Explorer) you should see a page that starts with something along the following lines:
    If you see any words in the meta line that are likely to indicate adult content, this could be the reason why our web filtering system blocked access - even if the content is entirely suitable to family viewing!
    It is my understanding that some people use the meta tags to add descriptors for the page so that search engines pick up on these (not to mention web filtering systems) in the hope that others users out there who search for these key words will be provided with a link to that page.
    Thank you for clarifying though and best wishes with help from other users / contributors to this forum.

    I am working in pages with a template and want to keep the image but get rid of the black background?

    Surprise surprise but we can't see what you are looking at and referring to.
    What black background?
    If it is black background in the actual photo:

  • Can't get rid of the Ken Burns Effect!!

    Not sure why, but when choose Show Photo info when working on the clips in iMovieHD, in Preview, I don't see the photo. It's just black. I also can not get rid of the Ken Burns Effect. I click the X so it won't be applied to the photos, but it does it anyway. This is becoming very frustrating. Is there some sort of bug that's causing it to do this? I started over several times seeing if that would help, but it hasn't. Any suggestions??

  • How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?

    How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?
    It seems this problem is caused by the software to increase the readibility of upper letters (clock battery etc.) It be nice to leave us the control of choosing background letter color too if we are using brighter images or darker images.
    I'm using iphone 4s and it appeared after I updated to new patch. 7.1.1.

    Hi,
    According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

  • How can I get rid of the accumulation of the backups in the Macintosh HD of my new MBA 13.3'' ?

    How can I get rid of the accumulation of the backups in the Macintosh HD of my new MBA 13.3'' ?

    My best advice is that you stop worrying about the backups that TimeMachine is making on your MBA. First, these local backups are only made when TimeMachine should perform a backup but your computer isn't connected to TimeMachine. Once you reconnect your computer to TimeMachine it makes a backup and the local backups are deleted. Second, TimeMachine stops making local backups when your free drive space dips below 80%. So the local backups aren't going to take over your computer.
