Light Gray Borders in Dark Grid View

With iTunes 9.0.2, I was able to switch to the "Dark" option of Grid View and it worked fine. However, I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and for some reason, the Dark Grid View option now shows light gray borders around the album art/video preview. When I click into the album art to show the listing of songs/videos, the view changes to the "Light" option. I've tried to delete all the iTunes preference files but it doesn't solve the problem. Here's what it looks like:

And when clicking on the video podcast link:

Thanks in advance for any help I can get.

If you have to reset your iTunes preferences, go into User/Library/Preferences. Search for "com.apple.iTunes" and move the following three files to your desktop:
com.apple.iTunes.eq.plist
com.apple.iTunes.plist
com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
Once you have the files to your desktop, restart your computer and iTunes should be back in working order!

Lightroom 4.4: Only 3 thumbnails will display at a time in both Grid view and the Film Strip

Hi. I have Lightroom 4.4. and Windows 7--both of which have been working fine for several months. Starting a few days ago, however, thumbnails have refused to load for any NEW photos I import. They appear gray/blank in both Grid view and the film strip. However, if you click on any of the film strip thumbnails (while in either Grid view or Develop mode), that thumbnail and corresponding image WILL load--until up to three have done so. Then they begin disappearing again, allowing you to view no more than three images' thumbnails at any one time.
I can't review a shoot via Grid mode this way. I'm also afraid to use Lightroom while it's misbehaving, for fear of corrupting the catalog somehow (though all the images appear to be there). Searching this forum, I found several people who experienced having all of their thumbnails blank out and who were able to correct this by either reinstalling or removing their color profiling software. However, 1) I did this (and it didn't work), and 2) it isn't that all my thumbnails that have disappeared. All the thumbnails and images imported prior to the bug, still initially display correctly.* And I can get three thumbnails of the newer images to appear at a time.
*The asterisk is because after I poked around some more, I realized that if I opened other folders and began post-processing images from older uploads (vs. just viewing them), the thumbnails that initially displayed correctly everywhere also blank out and begin appearing in this up-to-three-at-a-time fashion.
Help, please?
With many thanks,
Rita

Alas, it didn't work. I did it twice--the second time rebooting the computer before starting Lightroom. I didn't expect the reboot to make a difference, but I did discover something else in the process: the second time I tried this, I accidentally opened a different catalog--and new photos imported just FINE into that one, thumbnails and all! For one moment I thought the reboot HAD made the difference. However, when I reopened the catalog I actually wanted, the original problem remained. Thumbnails don't load with import, and, when forced, only display up to three at a time.
So the problem seems specific to this catalog.
And yes--thank you for affirming that reinstalling Lightroom wouldn't work, either. (I forgot to mention that's what I had tried first. It didn't help--but it's nice to know it wasn't supposed to.)
Thank you so much for your reply. Do you have any other ideas, please?
With many thanks, truly,
Rita

ITunes 9 grid view background color?

It seems iTunes 9 has changed the background color of grid view from black to white. How can I change it back? I can't find anything in preferences or the iTunes help manual. Thank you for the help

*Thank you Apple* for bringing the *Dark Grid View Background* back!
I'm all for change if it improves things. But I'm not sure the latest iTunes look change is all for the better.
The dark Grid View background was just one thing.
The new iTunes store look doesn't do it for me either. It's just a sea of icons on white background. Everything drowns in a blur of color specks...

Dark borders around album art in grid view

Hi everybody,
since last week my iTunes is displaying strange dark borders around album cover art and iPhone apps icons in grid view (see http://j.imagehost.org/0154/1_21.jpg). I am using the dark background theme. I already tried restarting iTunes and the computer several times and deleting the iTune album artwork cache.
Does anybody have an idea what else I could try to remove these ugly borders?
Thanks in advance
Jens

I have the same issue here.
If i change my display profile in the system preferences to the default, they disappear.
But that can’t be the solution.
Has anybody a clue?

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

Elements 10, windows 8, 64 bit, epson artisan 835 printer: prints are really dark even after using enhancements like adjusting lighting. Prints are darker than photoshop edit screen. Prints are acceptable using paint, windows photo viewer, or gallery.

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

How do you change the workspace panel color in Edge Animate CC (the stage is OK) to a lighter gray, I have the dark gray now. I have Win 7 Pro SP3?

Grid View Badges Option Is Grayed Out

I am using LR 4.2 (on Mac) and have been using LR since 2.0. Yesterday all the badges on all my photos disappeared in Grid View. I didn't change any prefernce settings, or update that I am aware of. When I go to View > Grid View Styles> Show Badges, that option is checked, however it is grayed out. On the Mac that usually indicates it is not a viable option.
I've restarted the program but the problem remains. Any suggestions about how to bring back badges?
Here is a screen shot:

Go to View Options>Grid View tab.
Ensure "Show Grid Extras" is checked, then select either Compact Cells or Expanded cells.
Ensure you select the items you want to see under "Cell Icons", e.g. Flags, Badges, etc.
Then UNCHECK as many of the boxes as you want under Compact or Expanded Cell Extras, to remove the info top and/or bottom on the grid cells.

Change default toolbar background from dark gray to light gray?

How do I change the default toolbar background from dark gray to light gray in illustrator CS6?
In the older versions, the toolbar backgrounds were light gray. It easier to read on light gray backgrounds.
THe same question applies to Photoshop CS6. InDesign CS6 has light gray backgrounds.
thanks

I should have looked a little harder for the answer.
To change the interface background color to another shade of gray in Photoshop go to:

The same method applies to Illustrator.

Can you change the pasteboard color? (Dark Gray to a much lighter gray)

Can you change the pasteboard color? (Dark Gray to a much lighter gray)

In CS6 and later you can change the User Interface in the Preferences.
A brighter interface changes the pasteboard color. Tou can also check the Canvas Color to white.

Dark bars around songs in Grid View with Dark Background

Hi, with the new update that added the option for the dark background in Grid View does anyone else notice dark bars around each song?

sidssp:
If you were able to get this new option in preferences to show up by removing your com.apple.iTunes.plist from ~/Library/Preferences, and you still have a copy of that file (maybe in your Time Machine backup on on your desktop), please email it to me <[email protected]>. Please include a link to this thread in your email and make the subject line be "Preference not showing up in 9.0.2".
Thanks,
Roy
