take your mac to a dark room and try to use a black wallpaper or the eizo screen test app to generate a black display.

thanks and excuse my bad english

Hi, I've noticed the exact same thing on my screen... But it seems like a feature...?
To those who don't see it: Turn off the light and crank the brightness to Full. Check out the black border around the Macbook Pro logo at various angles. It looks like a square of light at each side.
..Anyone else got that around their screen?

    It is the sensor that detects that you are on a call with the iPhone next to your face and it disables the screen so you don't inadvertently press any controls.

  • How do I remove the black border from around my videos?

    I have PE7 on my Dell laptop with Windows 7. I've been editing videos on it probably since January. I just never thought anything of the black border, but recently it's really been bugging me. I tried Googling some answers, but all I found was to switch your camera to 16:9 Widescreen. My JVC Everio GZ-MG555U was already set to that setting. I'm just frustrated & I want to get rid of this border. If anyone knows the answer to this problem, please let me know. I need help!

    Thanks for staying with the troubleshooting. I will stay with this as long as it takes to get the project to a successful conclusion. Let us work through this step by step.
    1. The readout that you give for your JVC video file is consistent with what those .mod widescreen files have been reading out as, that is,
    720 x 480 with a pixel aspect ratio of 0.9091 (standard 4:3) rather than 720 x 480 with a pixel aspect ratio of 1.2121 (widescreen 16:9).
    2. Premiere Elements 7. Start a new project with the project preset of NTSC DV Widescreen.
    3. With Get Media/Files and Folders import your video clip into the project and drag it to the Timeline.
    4. Go to Interpret Footage and, in the Interpret Footage dialog, dot the Conform to: and change the Pixel Aspect Ratio to
    D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2).
    5. Right click the Monitor, select Magnification, and make sure that that the setting is "Fit". Now look at the Edit Mode Monitor space. Is the area designated for the video display filled? No black borders? If so, continue. If not, you are going to scale the video to make the fill. It should not take much scaling for this if needed.
    a. Select your video on the Timeline
    b. Open Properties/Motion Panel to reveal Scale. Use the Scale slider to zoom in to fill the monitor space to the minimal degree to achieve that purpose, that is, getting rid of any unfilled space (black borders).
    6.Then export that Timeline to a NTSC DV AVI widescreen file, saving it to the computer desktop.
    Use Share/Computer/DV AVI with Presets: DV NTSC Widescreen
    Check out how your NTSC DV AVI widescreen plays back on Windows Media Player. Nevertheless, continue on....
    7. Go to the YouTube web site and upload your DV NTSC Widescreen there. And, let us know the results.
    We can talk about the upload of your Premiere Elements 7 Timeline with its mod widescreen to YouTube from within Premiere Elements 7 Share/Online/YouTube next if necessary. If you have any problems along the way, stop, let us know the details, and we will work out the problem before continuing with the next steps.
    Thanks.

  • How to get rid of the black border around the artboard

    Hopefully my last question for tonight.
    I need to get rid of the black border around the artboard. The two images show my drawing lined up with the art board and then inside the artboard. The dark gray is not the artboard.
    As you see, the artboard has a black border. I need to get rid of it. It shows up in my project when my color key is green. The black won't go to transparent.
    So how-to get rid of the border? Thanks
    ***Update***
    I figured it out. View > Hide Artboards. Maybe this will help someone. Doesn't change the fact my spider looks like a tick:)

  • What is the black border?

    Bridge CS3. iMac G5. OS 10.4.11
    Some of my thumbnails are surrounded by a black border, and some aren't. I can't find any consistent reason for this (type of file, whether previewed, whether camera raw settings altered, etc). Does anyone know what it indicates?

    It means Bridge hasn't yet built its own thumbnail and preview of the image file and it's just showing you the embedded JPEG preview in the file.
    Check your Bridge preferences to see if you're set to build a preview only when you actually select and open the file.

  • Removing the black border from exported videos

    Ok, basically I'm trying to rip DVD footage and convert it to something playable on an iPod. Nothing too hard getting it ripped and converted and all, but the VOB files didn't break right on the episodes, and I also wanted to edit out the theme from the beginning of EACH episode in the interest of space.
    Overall it's working pretty well so far, I've been able to perform all that I needed to do, but when I export I get a wide black border around the video which looks fine now, but will take up a lot of valuable space when reduced to iPod resolution. I've found ways to change the color of the border in FinalCut, but no real way to remove it. Anyone have a way of dealing with this?

    Ok, figured out what to do.
    If you go to the canvas, hit the box for the borders, tell it to show the wire frame. Click and you can rotate, resize, etc.

  • Removing the Black Border

    Hello 
    I recently I used a HDRPJ230 SONY HANDYCAM PROJECTOR to do some filming. When I uploaded the film to my iMac, I noticed that is a wide black border around the film content.
    How do I get rid of this wide black border which takes up a lot of the screen?
    All guidance appreciated.
    Regards,
    Peter

  • Light leak on the screen...

    I have a week 38 build...got this on 21 September...i noticed recently that i have very slight light leak on top right corner of the screen...very very faint you cant resly tell unless i point somone...i wonder if its a defect...does it even quilify for replacement?

    most lcd with backlighting will have the light leak, but not all of them. If you had a monitor, turn off all the light in the dark and see if you have them. My HP 23 inch widescreen HD monitor also has a light leak on all sides when the screen is black and in the dark room but if I am watching a movie or something then I don't even notice the light leak.
    Now If you have it set to full brightness you definitely may notice the light leak. While in a low brightness, you won't notice.
    Now if you think it's bothering you then it's your decision to replace it or not.

  • Lights out - need black border for softproofing

    The Lightroom 4 Beta has a white (and not black) background for previewing photos. In another discussion (Lights Out White Border) it was stated that this was intentional, not a bug. Many people requested the Black border be brought back, and the thread is "Assumed Answered". We are given the impression that White is what it will be!
    In softproofing it is critical that we have a black screen in order to view the effects of Simulate Paper & Ink (Reference: Real World Color Management 2nd edition by Bruce Fraser)
    Please bring back the Black Border! We NEED it!

    I think if Bruce we alive, he would actually change his mind about that...the reason he suggested a black screen was so you weren't influenced by the change from soft proofing off to soft proofing on in Photoshop. He suggested going to a black screen and hitting tab to hide Photoshop UI elements.
    What the current soft proofing in Lightroom is doing is showing Paper White as the area surrounding the image area just as you would see in a final print. The LR UI is already dimmed down to not influence your view of the image. As a result, in Lightroom you really don't need (or want) a black screen.
    Your eyes will use the paper white to adapt to the paper as the brightest area in your field of vision. This will allow you to better judge the relative brightness of your image. Give it a try...the soft proofing in Lightroom is, I think superior to soft proofing in Photoshop. New tools need new ways of using them.
    BTW, Bruce was a good friend and partner in PixelGenius. I've also coauthored two books with him and have a real good idea of the way Bruce thought–and learned a lot from him and still do.

  • Removing the 'Black Bars' in Front Row

    Hello,
    I was just wondering if anyone here knows how to get rid of the black border bars on Front Row while playing videos and DVDs? Thanks in advance..

    The iMac screen is widescreen, so when watching a movie that is in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen, you should see no black bars.
    However, you will see black bars if you are watching:
    -An non-anamorphic movie
    -A full screen movie
    -A 2.35:1 widescreen movie or wider

  • My 1st Generation time capsule won't connect to the internet thru a new motorola sb6121 - get continuously flashing yellow light. Using a router in between the modem and capsule yields good but slower connection to internet. Any thoughts?

    My 1st Generation time capsule won't connect to the internet thru a new motorola sb6121 - get continuously flashing yellow light. Using a router in between the modem and capsule yields good but slower connection to internet. Any thoughts?

    Thanks for your response
    Let me give the history - I started with an Apple Express being fed thru a D-Link  EBTR 2310 cable Router from an RCA DCM315 Modem (Pure). Comcast service all the way.
    Got the 1st generation TC in 2008 and merely replaced the Airport Express with the TC. Worked ok
    A year or two ago I did try removing the modem and feeding the TC directly from the modem. Resulted in the same condition I have now - Continuous flashing amber on the TC. So I put the router back in the chain.
    Some time later, at the recommendation of a Comcast rep, I replaced the router with (a Belkin F5D 5231) to see if speed and dropout problems would be improved. I thought it helped some at the time but now I am not so sure.
    Last week I decided to see if a new modem would help with download speeds. So I got another pure cable modem (Motorola SB 6121- high on the Comcast recommended list).
    Got up and running easily with Comcast help and with the modem connected directly to a computer.
    Next I put the TC in the link and again could not get past the TC continuing to flash amber. Although I did get connected to the internet with this configuration I lost connection two both of my printers - one connected by USB and the other wirelessly to the TC. Again everything works fine when I put the Belkin router back in the system.
    However with the router in there, the modem shows the downstream connection to be 10/100 ethernet speed. (Modem light changes color for indicating speeds.}
    I have gone thru all of the combinations of powering down/ up, but all stays the same.
    I can live with what I have but something still doesn’t seem right.
    Thanks again

  • Another iPad2 "light leak" "backlight bleeding" "yellowing spots" thread!

    I bought the iPad 2, White, 64g WIFI-only, at a Target. As soon as I turned it on, I immediately noticed a yellowish bleeding light from the edge of the display on the bottom right.
    Today, I went to an Apple store and showed it to a Genius, who was "shocked" to see it when he took is to a dark room in the back and replaced it with an unopened one.
    So I took it home, and guess what happened next? It was WORSE! It had light leaks, backlight bleeding, and yellow spots all over the screen! I drove back to the Apple store and found my Genius who was surprised to see me. He immediately took it the back room and confirmed the issue, yet again. So he gave me a new one.
    Guess what happened next. Yup, same problem, not as bad as the 2nd one, about the same as the 1st one I bought from Target. So I went back to the Apple store, and couldn't find my original Genius. A guy called "Scotty" told me that they "ran out" and that I would have to call back on Monday and can "...reserve one if they receive a shipment, because it's an exchange."
    I wonder if it's a "white iPad" issue. Some folks online with a black iPad seem to be reporting an issue.
    This is quite annoying and cannot wait to get a replacement. I was at the Apple store for 3 hours today. Blah!

    I am now on my 4th iPad returned and exchanged.
    This time I asked for a black one to replace my white one - which I justified as "maybe this is a white issue, not a black issue, as some people report." That seemed to convince them.
    So now I have a black one, which is the color I actually originally wanted anyway. My brother, who is thousands of miles away, told me his black iPad has no leaking whatsoever, which made me think I should try to the black as well.
    Guess what, the Black is ALSO affected. No change. I'm tired of going to Apple store at this point. I'll just wait for a few months and exchange this stupid thing. I cant really say I didn't try. And I can't really say Apple Genius guys didn't try either.

  • How is the dust / light leak issues now? New batches?

    So its been a little while since the intro of the iPhone 3G. And lots of new batches of iPhones are floating around. I've had problems with 8 phones now with eitehr dust or most recently Light leaking from the left side.
    To those who just got their phones within the last week, have you experienced any of these problems?

    I swapped out last night at an Apple store for a new phone as I had dust showing up under the screen as described. I've also linked it to a poor seal on the left side of the phone. The first replacement the "genius" brought me had a much bigger gap by the seal and the light leak was apparent even in the store, the second I could not see the leak / gap until I tested it at home in a dark room. So, I expect dust will show up again. The Apples store was out of replacement phones for over a week until yesterday, so either they got a transfer of a batch of defective units from another store or the problem has still not been addressed, which would be unfortunate.
    Has anyone found a way to seal up the gap? I tried pressing the seal in place with a thin edge, but it did not help. I'm expecting that a drop of water in there on a rainy day will do far more damage than a speck of dust.
    J-
