IBooks on iPhone 5 shows black bar on top

I understood that Apple have adapted every single app of their own to the wide screen on the iPhone 5, but I am seeing that iBooks make dissapear the cell operator, the clock and the battery level icon, but that part doesn't go to white, making it the "full screen" theme. And it really disturb me.
Is it a bug that will find solution in next app update? Happens only to me?

I have the same issue. I think it's how Apple designed it.
What a waste of space with a black bar.
This is a screenshot from my iPhone 4S.
I love the ability to switch to continuous scroll mode, but the black bar at the top is such a bad design choice.
*sigh... Apple....you almost had it....

  • Premiere Elements 7: share/export DV-PAL in FLV/QT/WMV, black bars on top/bottom

    During export (step "share", export for "PC" - sorry, if I use some wrong terms, got a german interface) of only DV-PAL video to FLV/QT/WMV there are always black bars on top/bottom of the video and the picture is wrong in aspect ratio. I can't help.
    I tried different resolutions (original 720x576, 502x402, 320x240) and, as only possible with QT/WMV, different pixel aspect ratios (PARs), even user-defined PARs and 'wrong' aspect ratios (like 512x402). No chance. (I think precise user-defined data like "1,094" is not possible, because results did not change anyhow and this value is shown as "1".) With e.g. QT, 640x512, PAR 1,067 there are black bars with 6 px each.
    My project settings must be correct I think: DV-PAL, 720x576, 4:3, 25 fps.
    DV-PAL- and MPEG-Export/Share is no problem.
    As a workaround I export DV-PAL and convert with XMediaRecode to FLV. But I want direct and clean export with PrEl. That's what I bought it for recently.
    I wonder why there are only NTSC-setting suggested in FLV-share. I have to change the size by myself.
    And I wonder why Wikipedia says PAR for DV-PAL is "1,0940" and Premiere says "1,067".
    I'm new to Premiere Elements 7 (although I got some experience with Premiere 5/6.5, FinalCut, Cinelerra ...) using Windows XP.

    I posted two videos on muvipix.com:
    WMV cable modem settings PrEl (without audio, fps like original)
    Strange: in VLC media player there are bars on the left and right (and slight faded bars on top/bottom - hope you can see) and in muvipix.com and Media Player Classic there are bars at top/bottom

    FLV (no resize, without audio, fps like original)
    black bars on top/bottom, but only slight in Media Player Classic

    I had to deactivate sound because this is Creative Commons stuff and I don't want to give credits. And I changed fps to "like original" because 30 fps as standard in PrEl is wrong. It's PAL here.
    Thanks for your efforts.

  • Samsung monitor shows black bars on sides

    I'm running OS 10.8.2 on a mid-2012 MacBook Pro, and I recently bought a Samsung Syncmaster SA300 (22 inch) monitor which I've connected using a VGA cable (DVI wasn't working, don't know why). I immediately noticed black bars on the sides of the screen, and the picture seems squished, despite the fact that I've chosen the proper resolution for the monitor. Funny thing is, when I boot into Windows 7, the bars disappear and the resolution looks perfect.

    Hello MpegEVIL,
    I would recommend taking a look at this article named Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
    I feel this article has the best troubleshooting steps for you.

  • IMovie is outputting my movie with big black bars at top and bottom that I don't want

    Quicktime: Ver 10.3
    iMovie: Ver 10.0.5
    OS: OS X Ver 10.9.4
    So, let me try and explain...
    I have recorded gameplay footage of my game directly from my Mac screen using Quicktime's Record Screen option. I've tried recording both in fullscreen mode (with my game also running in fullscreen mode) and a section of the screen by dragging the mouse to select a 640X960 box (with my game running in windowed mode which is displayed at 640x960 resolution).
    This initial recording direct from the screen displays fine, both when I view it in windowed mode and when I view it fullscreen, with the height of the game stretching to the full height of the video area but obviously with big black borders to either side in fullscreen mode (as it's basically iPhone ratio in portrait mode).
    WindowedFullscreen
    This ^^^ is how they should look.
    The problem is when I try to import the movie into iMovie, mess around with some fade-ins and music and stuff and then output the edited movie via iMovie...
    When I then try to view this outputted movie in windowed mode on certain sites (Kickstarter) my game footage doesn't take up the full height of the video and instead floats in the middle with big black bars at the top and bottom, which I don't want. It's fine when I go fullscreen but the problem is that when I load this video into Kickstarter it shows the non-fullscreen view of the video with this big black border and it looks really amateur.
    This is what Kickstarter shows in windowed mode i.e. the way you see Kickstarter videos by default when you press Play; unless I go fullscreen and then it takes up the full heigh of the view.
    Note: Windowed mode actually looks fine when viewed directly on my Mac but I know it's not Kickstarter that is causing the issue because I can see in the thumbnail preview on my Mac that the video is somehow encoded with the big black bars at the top and bottom. Also, I uploaded the unedited videos to Kickstarter just to check and they display fine. So it's definitely iMovie that is adding these annoying black borders at the top and bottom for whatever reason (and I'm not intentionally scaling the video down in iMove or anything like that as far as I know). I also can't use the unedited footage however because it has no sound and no transitions etc.
    Does anyone know what night be causing this and how to get rid of it.

    You are lucky to see anything - iMovie 5 is not really compatible with Snow Leopard, which only supports iMovie 6 and above.
    Snow Leopard only runs on Intel Macs. iMovie 5 was never written, AFAIK, for Intel, just for the PPC Macs they had in those old days!

  • How to get rid of black bars on top, bottom and sides??

    I am exporting a project from Adobe Premiere Pro (CS3) that is in HD (widescreen) format. The original video is HD, the size option I chose for the project is HD, everything is showing fine when I look at it in the Program window. I admit I am a bit of a novice Premiere user, so I do need a little help with the exporting as there are a ton of options. This is what is happening: When I export, whether to AVI or Quicktime my project comes out with black bars all the way around. Not like letterboxing on top and bottom as when you have a widescreen video exported to a standard 4:3 size, but almost like a 16:9 video, shrunken down a little with a 16:9 black box put around it. What the heck am I doing wrong. I'm sure it has something to do with some option on exporting, but I've tried messing around with the export options about 20 different ways. I'm desperate! Please help!
    Thanks in advance!

    I have several video clips from iStockPhoto. I don't know what camera's/settings were used, but know that they are all 640x360 px and vary between 25 fps and 30 fps. I also have 3 still images that I have insterted that I formatted to be 640x360 to keep everything the same size. Everything appears correct when viewing the project as I've built it. I'm attaching a few screen shots of the most recent settings for export, though these are not the only that I have tried. Everything comes out with the same result.
    I can't insert screen shots of my settings for some reason (?) but here is some info on my most recent try. I chose to export as a Microsoft DV AVI. Then in the Video options I'm using the DV NTSC codec. For size, I chose the D1/NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2) option.
    As for other times I've tried this, there are only 2 other codecs to choose from when saving as a DV AVI. I've tried both of them too. Everything has had the same result. I've tried a Quicktime file as well.
    Does anyone have a suggestion as to the best file/codec/setting combination?
    Thanks,
    Holli

  • Remove Black Bars from Top and Bottom

    Here's my situation:
    I shot my footage FULL FRAME (not anamorphic) but while shooting my footage I had markers on my LCD for a 2.35 Aspect Ratio.
    Now that my footage is edited I dropped the FCP matte filter for 2.35
    For those of you out there I know I did not use a anamorphic lens and I know I did not shoot it on 16:9 format. But is there a way to crop out the Black bars?
    Again like the previous post I would like to remove the black bars and have my QUICKTIME MOV. play like the ones on APPLE's Trailer site: http://www.apple.com/trailers/
    Can anyone out there explain how to do this? Other then just drop this and change the size...WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? If you can provide more step by step information that would be great!

    1. Create a New Sequence in FCP (Command-N)
    2. Bring up your Sequence Settings (Comman-Zero) and alter them...
    2a. so that your Frame Size is (approx) 720x306
    2b. set Aspect Ratio to Custom.
    3. Drop in your widescreen-filtered footage (they'll be shrunk, so...)
    4. Select your clip (or all clips) (Command-A)
    5. Remove Attributes (Option-Command-V) and select 'Basic Motion' then click OK.
    6. Your movie should now (pretty much) fill the 2.35:1 sequence.
    You'll probably need to tweak the frame size slightly (It's been a while since I've done this so my number(s) might be off).
    Also, when you (ultimately) Export Via QuickTime Conversion (for the web?), be sure to take into account that the web uses Square Pixels - so resize your QT movie (in the Save Dialog, under Options) to be 640x306. (Again, my exact numbers might be off)
    Good luck.

  • Aspect Ratio Problem (black bars on top and bottom in the preview window)

    I have iMovie 08 and I have been shooting video on my new Canon HF100. It appears that in iMovie preview window my 1920x1080 (and even the ones I bring in in 960x540) videos appear to be in wrong aspect ratio - they are stretched beyond 16:9 ratio horizontally. The problem persists if I export the movie through Quicktime - the videos are still stretched. In the preview window in iMovie I have the right 16:9 box but it has black bars on to and the bottom. The clips themselves in the time line seem to be the correct aspect ratio.

    Also I have found this on the export video screen which narrows it down a bit...
    Here's how the source tab of that screen looks...
    compared to the output tab, with the black bars that are my issue...
    So where did I go wrong here?

  • IPhone 4S showing black pictures

    When I take pictures from the home screen & from the camera app, they appear black when I try to view them. When I press 'edit' the photo appears.
    Any suggestions please?

    Since you're using a third party app to send pics, I'd suggest contacting the WhatsApp and see if they can resolve your issue.

  • 2nd firefox browser window shows 2 bars at top & no home page?

    Hi Cor-el
    thanks for your hlelp! i omitted to say that i am a Mac use and so don't have an f10 key ;-( ...and so some of the other instructions don't work either!
    I have tried some of the other suggestions( like looking in customize tool bars) ..and I don't think that something has gone missing. I think firefox may have changed the look of the window?!
    I have attached a screen grab below...to help explain...
    See the long window at the top that has google written on left hand side ?! This is where the url used to be displayed.
    I have discovered that when you are on a page if you click on the icon on the left hand side of the little window/bar...that is to the left of the long one ...and then click more info you can see the page details in a pop up window ( as per the screen grab) . However only the site details can be copied ...and not the individual page URL ...although this appears at the top of the pop up!
    I also noticed I do not have latest version of firefox running ...so will remedy that
    and maybe that will sort it ...what do you think?
    If I do the same thing but use safari as a browser i don't get the same problem ...and the complete URL for the actual page is displayed !
    thanks

  • Delete the show side bar and top sites from Safari

    I have never nor will I ever use the tabs for top sites and show sidebar which appear on Safari. How do I delete them from the tab bar?

    Robert
    aha! NOT tab bar BUT Bookmarks Bar! I guessed the TOOL bar at first. BOOKMARKS!
    In the main menu bar choose [Help] > Safari Help
    search " deleting bookmarks " > open that file
    *in my version, it says "
    You can’t remove the bookmarks bar or Bookmarks menu from the sidebar. You can’t remove History and All RSS Feeds, but you can delete individual bookmarks within them.
    To remove Address Book and Bonjour from the sidebar, open the Bookmarks pane of Safari preferences and deselect them."
    key to the bold statement is that one of the icons that you wish to disappear, may not not be removable. It is certain the 'Open Book' is there to stay.
    I have personalized my Safari so much that I don't find your "Top Sites" folder or icon - If I removed it in the Bookmarks window, it would naturally disappear from the bookmarks toolbar - if you see it in the list, remove it and I'll bet it magically disappears from the Bookmarks Bar.
    let us know

  • Black bars appearing on website while browsing with iOS 6

    I have a WP site and when I browse it using my iOS 6 iPhone it shows black bars at the bottom of each post.
    Others using iOS 6 also have the same issue on my site but those using older iOS do not see the black bars...
    Anyone else having this problem with Safari in iOS 6?
    Thanks

    Yes I see this too. Using the WiFi hotspot does not have this problem but is a poor workaround. I also upgraded both devices to iOS 6, and tried resetting network settings on the hotspot device, to no avail. I filed a bug report at http://bugreporter.apple.com , you may wish to do the same.

  • My iPhone shows black text instead of blue btwn iPhone users, Why?

    My iPhone is shows black text instead of blue to different iphone users, what does this mean?? Thank you.

    No matter what you send a normal text or iMessage the color of the "text" will remain black,but if you send a iMessage,the color of the message bubble will be blue and if you send a normal text message the color of the message bubble will be green.
