IPhoto 09 - Black screen after download of new images

Hoping someone can help me with this problem.
After downloading new images from my digital camera (Canon EOS 400D) I am unable to open any images in iPhoto, either the new ones or older ones (which I have opened previously.) I can see the thumbnails but when I click them all I see in the iPhoto image pane is black. No image, just blackness.
If I quit iPhoto then restart it I am able to open all the images old and new as before without any problem. This is not a terminal problem but it is very annoying. Any helpful ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in anticipation.
Regards,
Rikx

Control-click on one of the problem thumbnails and select Show File. If you are taken to a folder with the original image file in it then they are safely in the library. In that case Backup and launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed to rebuild the library. Select the first two and last three options.

Black screen after downloading TV show from itunes

HI. Downloaded an TV episode from itunes store. Loaded it onto laptop. Played ep and made sure it worked on laptop. Then stopped it but went back a few days later to play it. Connected laptop and TV with a HDMI cable but all it has on the laptop is a black screen with a toolbar top and bottom. Has the title of the ep and the time playing but no pik or audio. Doesn't matter whether it is connected to TV or just on laptop won't play but yet it played a few days earlier...
Help?
Also when I download a tv ep it dowbnloads two episodes, hd and sd and both are eating into my internet usuage. Is there anyway to download just one or do both need to be downloaded? Downloaded 13 ep of a season and it fully used my entire months internet allowance ;P

I need help with a similar issue. I downloaded one tv episode with no problems. The 2nd one I tried, I got error code 8008. I emailed iTunes Help and they gave me the instructions to delete the temporary files, restart my computer, and sign back in to iTunes and check for available updates. After doing this, I got one more to go through. I then bought another episode, and after the same problems, finally got it to go through. I was also told to check my firewall, Anti-Virus software, and any Ad-ware software because I could get 2 more episodes to download. I disabled and uninstalled what I could and tried again, with no luck. I looked last night, and the 2 episodes that won't download are in my TV Shows category under my Library heading, but they won't sync to my iPod. When I look at them in the Purchased category, they are dimmed and it won't let me do anything with them. So far, I haven't heard anything from Support.

Has anyone had trouble with photo albums after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

Has anyone had trouble with photo albums and viewing photos after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos. However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.

All my iphoto pictures dissapeared after downloading the new version. but i still got some of them on my ipad. is there any way i can import them to my mac?

I've got a question.

Black screen after windows auto update

New laptop in use for 3 weeks. After Windows auto update restart I get to splash screen and am able to enter Windows password to log onto desktop. After successfully entering password I am not able to view my desktop; I get the black screen with cursor function; cursor disappears when moved within an inch of left or right of screen (seems to go behind something). I believe I am at the desktop but just not able to view it, because I receive app popups on the black screen (need to update McAfee, etc).
In safe mode I restored to pre auto update date; manually installed all Windows updates; worked fine until NEXT auto update, same problem.
Graphics Card: Stock Intel HD Graphics
Monitor: Generic PnP
Why would it be fine with the manual update and not after auto update?
I do not have an external monitor to attach this laptop for diagnosis. I have run windows partition checks and hard drive partition checks with no issues to resolve.
I did get an error message once when running a diagnosis (can't remember which) : Windows Update Error 0x80070490
No real luck finding anyway for me (the average Joe) to resolve this issue.
If this is a harddrive issue I don't want to keep pussyfooting around while my warranty window shrinks.
I have downloaded driver updates from HP, but cannot get the Synaptics Touchpad driver to download. I don't think this is my issue though.
I am going to manually update all my drivers then manually update Windows. We will see what happens on the next auto update.
Please advise if this is an issue I need to just give up on and return this laptop for replacement. It seems like this is not a completely unheard of issue, but I'm shocked at what we are asked to do to attempt to resolve it. Out of my depth.

Hi @Justanothermom
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are having troubles with a black screen after an update. I am happy to help you with this.
Firstly, there is nothing wrong with modifiying your update settings. I was going to suggest it myself as I read through your post, and then saw you ask the question. Sometimes updates can have unintended results by the creator. With all the different combinations of hardware, and the fact that updates come from different sources, it is one of those things that is hard to completely control.
Please see the following for how to make adjustments to your update settings.
Turn automatic updating on or off - windows.microsoft.com
Or if you know which update seems to be causing the issue you can take a look at this page:
win 8.1 August 12 updates - black screen after 2nd reboot - answers.microsoft.com
Let me know if this helps at all.

Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade

Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade.
What happen: My laptop was working fine, no blue screen issue, no funny business at all. I bought a new SSD Intel 120 GB and thought it would be a good idea to replace the HDD. I shutdown and disconnected the power adapter, waited a couple of minutes and removed the battery. I opened up the back case and replaced the HDD. And put all the screws back and put the battery back in.
Problem: The very first time I turned the power on, nothing happens besides a black screen. I pressed the dvd drive it works and opens up and closes. I waited for about 30 mins and still has blac screen. When I mean black screen, no bios menu, no logo, just a black screen with the fan sound on.
I have tried these:
1. Unplugged everything - battery, adapter, and pressed the power on button for about 60 seconds, nothing, the laptop turns on with the LED display on for both on and battery LED's. But nothing but black screen, no sound of windows loading just the fan and black screen.
2. I tried putting back my old 2.5" and nothing but black screen.
Thoughts and suggestions?
Solved!

[Solved]Black screen after "waiting for udev uevents to be processed"

Hello friends,
Starting from late Dec., my laptop goes black screen after "waiting for udev uevents to be processed", after updating kernel to 2.26.32.*. The strange thing is that even the screen is black, the keyboard is working. For example, I can turn on/off the status lights of capslock and others. I guess something might be wrong with udev uevents configuration with regard to the latest kernel. I've noticed that in the new kernel, there are two drivers for intel integrated graphics. My laptop has a 855G, which is supposed to be functional by both drivers, at least according to the kernel description. Maybe because the udev is configured to use the second driver (for newer graphic chips), rather than the first driver, which caused the problem?
Regards,
Wen

Black Screen After Windows 8 64-bit Upgrade (Clean Install) on TouchSmart IQ508A (IQ500 series)

Hi there,
Just installed Windows 8 and am getting a black screen after booting up like many others. I currently have disabled the graphics driver and this has solved the black screen issue but I can no longer use my web cam for Skype (although web cam works for W8 Camera App oddly).
To date I have tried the following:
Loading up the latest Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia website
Attempting to use the drivers for Windows 7 both in compatability mode and normally. I unzipped SP44488 to get this working
I know many others are having this problem so I really would like someone from HP to respond and state whether a Windows 8 display driver for the Nvidia GE Force 9300M GS is being developed.
I ran the compatability wizard prior to the clean install and it came up with no issues so I am very disappointed I am having these problems.
I've found out that HP have a customised version of the above card so that explains why the Nvidia drivers dont work so I believe HP is therefore obligated to provide a driver.
If anyone else is having similar issues please respond as this will hopefully lead to more action.
cheers
Steve

I'm in the same boat. On my IQ804, the Nvidia GE Force 9300M GS card crashes when I use NVidia's latest Windows 8 driver and Microsoft's LIVE UPDATE drivers. I have to resort to the Standard VGA driver in order for the pc not to crash into a black screen.
I read on another forum you can try installing a July 2012 version of the driver from NVidia and that should solve the problem. I tried it once. Using the July 2012 version, the screen would stay on longer, but eventually it crashes into a black screen...but definitely more usable than the latest from NVidia and Microsoft.
I too have heard that HP used a customized version of the graphics card and that's why neither HP nor NVidia's drivers work.
I also tried installing the Nvidia GE Force 9300M GS drivers for Windows 7 that I downloaded from the HP website. It didn't work either. It actually failed to install altogether, saying my system is incompatible.
As is, the pc works fine. But videos and games that require motion is noticably choppy.
Any help from HP??

Black Screen After Upgrading to Windows 8

Hi
I'm experiencing a black screen after upgrading a Dell N5050 B890 to Windows 8.
Tried to refresh the installation but the problem persited. re-installed the Windows 8, the machine logged in successfully but the problem arose again after reboot.
Urgent assistance needed

This problem is solved...
I guess the problem is concerned with the display module controller in the BIOS which is having a slight compatibility issue with windows 8.
This issue is solved by updating the BIOS of your Laptop/PC to the latest version. You can download the latest BIOS from the website of the Laptop company/Motherboard Company.
But for updating the BIOS, you have to start your computer/Laptop for at least one time in Normal Mode. So here are the steps to do so...
1) Boot the Laptop/PC.
2) After the boot screen (The Circle Animation & Windows 8 logo), you will be presented by the lovely & awesome blank screen.
3) Wait for 1 minute so that drivers load into the memory.
4) Press the Power button of your laptop/PC for only a moment (Just Press and release it quickly. Don't hold. We don't want to shut down).
5) This will force the laptop/PC to go into Sleep mode.
6) When the laptop/PC goes in sleep, the laptop fan & other sounds will stop.
7) After 4-5 seconds, press the power button again & release it quickly.
8) Voilllaa!!! The laptop/PC starts & you are presented with the lock screen. Now..... Login! What are you waiting for! :P
This is not the permanent solution. It just lets you start you Laptop/PC.
After updating the BIOS, I strongly suggest that you must download the latest graphics driver for your Computer/Laptop to avoid any further issues.

GTX670 - Signal lost/black screen after windows loading icon

Hello,
I hope I am posting this in the correct forum area. If not I do apologize.
Here are my specs:
Board: MSI Z97-G45 Gaming
Bios: ?? whatever pre-installed on mobo
VGA: MSI GTX670 OC
PSU: Corsair HX750 750W
Intel Core i7-4790K
MEM: 12 GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 1600 2x 4GB, 2x 2GB sticks
HDD: SSD Kingston 120 GB (Win7), HDD 1 TB WD 7200 RPM (Win7), HDD 1.5 TB WD 7200 RPM (storage)
COOLER: Corsair Hydro Series H60 Water Cooler
OC: no overclocking done by me..default settings
OS: Windows 7 64bit Professional
So to keep this as direct and as short as humanly possible here is my situation.
Had a gtx670 card that I had to send back to MSI under RMA. They sent me what looks like a new gtx670 card (no dust) that I received yesterday (4 Aug). Last night I removed temporary old card (9800gt) and plugged in new 670gtx. Things seemed to be ok, reinstalled driver after card was recognized. Played one round of Battlefield 4 for testing purposes and all seemed good.
Upon exiting the game things went south in a hurry. Moving the mouse cursor around was extremely slow and choppy. Mouse clicks were not recognized. I could not bring up ctrl-alt-del to get to task manager. At this point the cursor turned to spinning circle as if things were happening. However, after 5+ minutes of nothing changing I did a hard boot.
Restarted and after the windows loading screen the signal appeared to be lost to the monitor and I was left with black screen. This was with the SSD. I then attempted to load into the HDD windows OS that I hadn't logged into yet with this card and was greeted with the same issue.
I can load into Safe Mode with no issues. In safe mode I removed all nvidia drivers and was then able to load into windows normally using basic windows vga drivers. The moment I load the Nvidia drivers and restart the computer I then have the issue again. This happens with both drives.
I have reset the video card in the PCI-Ex16 slot and still received the problem. I have tried a different PCI-Ex16 slot and still had the issue. I put the old 9800gt card back in and windows loaded perfectly and without issues on both drives. I put the 670gt in and try to load into normal windows and I lose signal and get black screen after the windows loading screen.
I'm at a loss at the moment. I think it's the drivers, but could it be the card?
Doing some research I've come across some people saying there may be issues with the nvidia HD audio drivers that are installed with the video drivers. Could it be as simple as uninstalling or unchecking that particular driver?

Flashed the BIOS last night to the latest version and attempted to launch windows with the GTX670 card. I still experienced the same issue where as soon as windows finishes it's loading animation (with Nvidia drivers) and it goes to the login screen, the monitors cut out.
At this point I feel like it has to be the card. The moment I install the video drivers and restart, I have the problem of losing the signal/black screen.
What I have done:
1) Completely wiped any/all video related drivers from the computer and started from scratch. No success.
2) Ran Memtestx86 to see if it's a problem with my memory sticks. No problems found.
3) Put the card in a different PCI-Ex16 slot to see if there was a problem with the slot. No success.
4) Flash updated the BIOS on the motherboard to the latest version. No success.
I have a dual boot computer with Windows 7 64-bit installed on an SSD and a HDD. The problem happens on both drives. Yet, the moment I install my old 9800GT the problem disappears and I can login to Windows just fine.
I will be sending the card back today on another RMA.

Aspire R7 572G having a black screen after windows 8.1 update. What should I do

Hi all, Im wondering, anybody encounter this problem before, Im having trouble with this black screen after boot, it happened yesterday I think microsoft must have updated some of the drivers rendering my screen black after booting. Initially i thought it was my SSD but it turns out i can enter into Safe Mode. I read more about this problem related to other PCs, and try the recommended method of "disabling" the Intel GMA HD drivers. It worked, however, it only means the primary driver is now reduced to a standard video graphic card with limited vram. I have tried rolling back and even redownloading then reinstalling the intel driver into the version VGA_Intel_9.18.10.3215. The blackscreen after boot still occured. Did i miss something?

that's an old version of Intel drivers. try this, after uninstalling the old Intel driver:http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Driver/VGA/VGA_Intel_10.18.10.3316_W81x64_A.zip?acerid=635194016643160700&Step1=NOTEBOOK&Step2=ASPIRE&Step3=ASPIRE%20R7-572G&OS=81P1&LC=en&BC=ACER&SC=PA_6

HP Pavilion DV3 41700-EE Problem-Black Screen after installing graphic card driver

Hi,
Laptop Model : HP Pavilion DV3 41700-EE Entertainment series.
I download the latest official driver for my lap top from this link : http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-93326-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
After the installation i rebooted my device and after the windows loading i got a black screen ! i went to safe mode and unistall the video card and also it's driver from device manager and when i came back the black screen was gone but i have only my onboard Integ graphic which is very slow.
also i went to AMD web site and get AMD Catalyst from their web site but nothing happened after the installation and i think they don't provide an appropriate driver for my lap top.
i also tries to go to device manager and with right click on my display adapter and update driver point to the display driver location on my syste but this time it does not take time the black screen after restart, and in the middle of installation i got a black screen.
Also i upgraded my BIOS Firmware from 16 to 24, but nothing changed.
i just wanna know is it a software problem or hardware problem ? how can i find out that ?
also i don't want this switchy manner and i don't care about the power efficency. i just want to my device work on maximum performance.
What you suggest i do ?

Use the recovery manager to reinstall the original AMD graphics driver and Catalyst Control center.
