I guess that you should have first done this and can even do it even now:
Have the entire project selected first; then open your preferences and choose your white background. This should allow your entire work to have a white background.
That is NOT the way it is supposed to work. The background color preference is global to the application, it does not work on a project by project basis. This preference setting determines what FCP X displays in the Viewer in areas where you have no content (or where the content is transparent) - as in the present case, where the photos do not cover the whole viewer area.
You can easily confirm this. Open some project with a transparent area, and set the background to say, white.
You should see white showing through any transparent area (that's what the OP was expecting, and it should happen!).
Now close this project, open something else. Switch to, say, checkerboard background.
Open the previous project and see the checkerboard (not white!) background.
One workaround for the present problem is to place a custom generator behind the content, and set its color to white. But of course this should not have been necessary.

When I go into bookmarks and click on a site, the screen shows what appears to be a compass with a lock overlay, on a black background. At the bottom the address/url are shown. Theses cannot be opened. Other bookmarks have the black background and compass, but no lock. These can be opened by clicking on the compass. What is wrong?

Thanks to the-edmeister and cor-el, for speed of response. I had not inadvertently moved the Bookmarks-Toolbar : I was confronted with the situation right after Firefox 9 had installed and unfolded in front of me. At first, the toolbar area looked reassuringly familiar, but when I started normal work, I discovered the lack of tabs and the only reference I could see to TABS was a tiny button inviting me to group tabs (which was unhelpful to say the least, filling up the screen with tiny unreadable windows). Sure, there were tabs forming, but they were invisible, unless I used the group button. Eventually, I was brave enough to use "reset toolbars" and the tabs came back in the way I want them, but it was a traumatic 2-3 hours out of my life. I kept on "adding a new toolbar" to see if I could make use of it; I kept giving them names, but it is impossible to see where the new tool bar is! (the toolbars don't have a little bit to grab at one end). In my opinion, Firefox should not have allowed the Tab Bar and the Bookmarks Toolbar to become caught up with each other - they have completely different functions. I don't think I would like to play around with "Make a new profile"! I was so desperate that I have already downloaded version 3.6 again, ready to install, for if I was unable to resolve the version 9 problems above.

The mailbox list is divided into categories with headings in caps, such as ON MY MAC. When you hover the cursor over one of those headings (except for MAILBOXES), you should see the word Show or Hide on the right. Click Show. The MAILBOXES category can't be hidden.
In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle points to the right, click it so that it points down.

I have chg my apple I'd, but it hasn't chg when I try to update my apps, what do I need to do to get it chg on the pop up screen that ask for your password?

I have changed my ID, but when I go to update my apps my old ID is still there, I have verified my new ID and signed in using it but still showing on app update sign in which is stopping me from getting update, what do I need to do to get it to change?

Did you create a new account or did you update your existing account ? If you updated your existing account then logging out and back in on the iPad usually 'refreshes' the account on it. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

IPod Classic 80GB - "iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It says it has synced but it hasn't. Help please I am not very tech minded

iPod Classic 80GB. Message reads ' iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation'. It says it has synced but it hasn't. Please help, I am not very tech minded.

See this article about troubleshooting the error message regarding access privelages. It may be preventing your iTunes library from being able to save/retain music you have recently imported to it, which may explain why no new content is being added to your device.

Default Background (canvas) color

For some reason my background is red where it used to be white. Please point me to the control of the background color. the layer properties show a red rectangle.
Would like to change default BG color to white.

Press 'd' to get the default colors.
Or just change the background color from the tool palette or color palette.

Canvas color doesn't match QT output - help!

I noticed today that my footage is appearing darker in the canvas window than it does when viewed in QuickTime. I did the following test:
1. Export a "Quicktime Movie", not self-contained, and opened that in QuickTime. Move to a specific frame for comparison.
2. Move to the same frame in the FCE canvas.
The image in the canvas looks markedly darker - to the point that I would make color corrections on it...but looking at the QT version, it seems correction is not necessary. They're quite different.
I've uploaded a screenshot of both windows next to each other here, which makes the difference obvious:
http://idisk.mac.com/gr2020-Public/canvas-qt.png
I see the same thing when exporting and compressing with QT...I first noticed the problem when making a video for the web.
Can someone please help me figure out what's going on?

I did some more research, and I think I figured out what's going on.
I think FCE (and FCP from what I'm reading) assumes your monitor is calibrated to a gamma of 1.8, and it "darkens" the images in the canvas to make them appear as they would on a gamma 2.2 display or a video monitor (which are apparently natively close to 2.2).
However, if your screen is calibrated to gamma 2.2 (most photo editing workstations are), then FCE still "darkens" everything in the canvas (it's assuming it's gamma 1.8), and in the process totally screws things up.
When videos are exported, this adjustment doesn't occur, so the video looks as it should. It's only inside the canvas that things are artificially adjusted, and everything gets messed up.
Sigh.
Assuming this is in fact what's happening, anyone have ideas how to fix this? It's totally annoying; my screen is calibrated very specifically for my still photography work, and I'd hate to have to have a totally separate display profile just work working within FCE, and then switch back to the regular one when viewing exported videos...

Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for error 1604.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

I have just downloaded a £55 app but it doesn't work, help please???

I have just downloaded an app but when I open it It just comes up with a white screen. I have no idea how or where to go to try and reinstal it, at £55 I do not want to have to re-pay for it, can somebody help me please.

Hi..
Helps to tell us which app you downloaded ...
You can try re downloading. You will not be charged again.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
If that didn't help, if you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
Turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy
If you have an app called Little Snitch installed, that can prevent apps from downloading.

CSS background container color not "showing through" ?

Hi all-
I know this may be a basic CSS question but as I'm just now getting into doing it by hand, I'm looking more closely at how things work (or don't seem to) and can't figure this one out.
Here's the example:
http://www.turnerdesign.com/testsite/
and the css:
http://www.turnerdesign.com/testsite/test.css
I have #container as a green color, but it doesn't show in the gap to the right of #rightColumn.
I think it has something to do with the way floats work... uh... or something
Any help appreciated!
thanks,
Andrew

Wow, thanks guys.
Looks like I have some reading to do. Odd thing is, I don't see where the "overflow" is actually occurring. Maybe I'm misinterpreting the definition.
But I have to read it a few more times...
I'm trying to choose which one "solved" this!
thanks again,
Andrew
