Pixelation and flickering upside-down image

This is really weird. I like iMovie '08, because the design is really intuitive. Yes, I have HD, but I'm not very proficient with it. I'm working on it right now, but I want iMovie '08 back. I'm trying to export a movie I'm very happy with, and every time, certain clips, but not others, are moved to the lower left corner of the view, while frames from other clips flash repeatedly and epileptically upside-down on the rest of the view. I can't find anyone else with this problem. What's wrong?

Welcome to the forums
One thing to check is your video card, some video cards produced upside down/reversed images or menus, though I do not recall seeing that happen (did not see what computer you have or video card)
Just took a quick look and did not see a reverse setting or mirror for text

Using Macbook without lid/display (and mounted upside down)

I have a MBP with a damaged LCD that I want to connect to a kitchen HDTV and mount upside down. Since the display is useless, don't need a camera, and I want easy access to the power button, I want to remove the lid and mount the MBP upside down to the underside of a above-counter kitchen cabinet (not enclosed). Is there any problem with removing the lid and mounting/operating upside down? Makes for a sweet kitchen internet station, and will be very cool to have the MBP and cables mounted out of sight (wireless keyboard/mouse of course!).

BSteely, thanks for the response. Unfortunately I started dissasembly before I checked back on the forum. I removed the damaged LCD and got crazy and removed the lid frame. I continuously checked the MBP operation after each step to make sure it was still working (using external display). The only thing I did not check along the way was internet access (wireless router). I ended up cutting the connection to what I believe is the antenna/receiver? Because when I mounted the MBP under the cabinet and turned it on, everything worked fine except no internet access. I am in the process of trying to reconnect the wires on what I think is the antenna (was mounted in the bottom of the lid/hinge area. Do you think this is my problem? Other than that everything working OK so far.

Upside down images when creating a DVD

Hello,
During the course of making a DVD which is a mixture of stills & video clips I found that some of the images, in the timeline, in the available media and finally in the "Create DVD menu" screen were upside down.
This usually preceeded a "serious" error which involved the program shutting down!. Although I was able to recover the file and eventually carry on to a successful project, I have no idea what I have done to cause this annoying problem.
Has anybody any ideas?
Thanks
Jim

Hi Paul,
Yes, they are all very high resolution. I wondered if this was the problem. Oddly, it doesen't occur all the time though and sometimes changing an associated transition in Premiere has turned the image the right way up. Still, sorted now. Thanks a lot.
Jim

Iphone 4s Wont flip to landscape and some apps are upside down

I have Iphone 4s and when I went to use it this morning the screen would not flip to the landscape. I checked the portrait lock was not on and I rebooted and reset and did hard reset holding home and power key at the same time till the apple appears. I attempted to reprogram by calling *228 as recommended and it will not allow my phone to call, it says "searching" then "call failed" I now notice it also has several of the apps and games upside down, such as Flashlight app, Temple run2, solitaire. words with friends is correct but all the ads that pop up are upside down. Anyone have any answers?

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

Upside-down Album Art

Dragging and Dropping Artwork into iTunes from amazon.com produces an upside down image.
Any way to stop this without dropping it on the desktop and re-opening the image in Preview and THEN dropping it into iTunes? (Which solved the problem for me)
Am I the only one with this problem?

Until now, I've never heard of this phenomenon.
So, you download a picture and iTunes mirrors it or puts it upside down?
Odd.
There are several ways to extract artwork and edit it.
The simplest way is to drag the picture from the artwork pane to the desktop, control-click the resulting clipping and open it with an editor of your choice.
To extract multiple pictures at once, use Save Album Art to Album Folder
Then open the pictures in an editor (e.g. GraphicConverter), edit them and save them.
To replace the picture of a track, don't use the artwork pane. This will add the picture, but not replace the old one.
Select the track and Get Info (command-I). Select the artwork tab and delete the old picture (click on it and click the 'Delete' button).
Then drop the edited one on the now empty space, or click 'Add...' and navigate to the edited picture.
Hope this helps.

Acrobat 9 displays "fi" as upside down "?"

I have several pdf documents where "fi" appears as an upside down "?" It prints the same way. If I open the same files in PDFLite (a free opensource program) everything displays and prints correctly. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

PDF lite may be using the fonts embedded in the file, your local Acrobat preference could be to use local fonts (or vice-versa) in Preferences.
Or, the font may not be embedded in the file, fi is a ligature substitute glyph for, hold on to your hats here, fi, and the upside down ? is a glyph used in Spanish (pardon my ignorance; Espanol?, Latin Americn?)

After installing the Quicktime 7.6 Plug-in all my MobileMe Gallery movies display upside down

This issue is only in FF 4.0.
I have a 2010 Intel iMac with Mac OS 10.6.7.
I create an iMovie, upload to MobileMe Gallery, a window opens asking if I'd like to 'View' the new movie, I click 'View'.
After opening my MME Gallery in FF4.0 my movie is displayed and plays upside down and backwards. All my other movies (48 of them) are also the same.
After discussions with Apple MME Support I find that my movies are displayed properly in my 'logged in' area only, when I try to play any Gallery movie it becomes upside down/backwards.
I finally gave up troubleshooting and re-installed FF 3.6.16 and everything is as it should be.

Emailing iphone 4S photos to someone arrive upside down

when emailing a photo from iphone 4s camera roll, it arrives from 90 degree rotation to upside down (180 degrees). What causes this?

I agree that Apple needs to fix this. For some reason, I do not remember this problem on earlier versions of iOS 4, but it may well have been there all along. But now that I have iOS 5, it seems that no matter how I take a photo--either in portrait layout or lanscape--it gets tilted when e-mailed from my iPhone and then viewed on a regular PC. Video can and does sometimes come out upside down. I found that I could use Windows Movie Maker to reorient the movie to right side up, but the process seems to double the file size..so a 2 minute video that is 170MB ends up being 330MB ! Somehow the orientation metadata is getting lost or corrupted. I've seen a couple of forum posts suggesting that Apple doesn't want to set an all-purpose "this way is up" metadata tag because there are, apparently, some folks out there who do really want to shoot pictures and video upside down. If that's the case, I'd suggest instead that Apple add a camera settings option in the "settings" section that allows for both an "always up" setting and a "fixed frame" so that idiots like me will always have their pictures and video orientented up while true artists can have the option to decide what is up and upside down. Until then, I have not yet figured out how to prevent post-picture e-mail photo orientation grief. Each e-mailed photo tends to be its own orientation surprise.

Have you tried transferringing the videos via usb (sinc you're having trouble transferring them with PhotoSync) as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 and just transferring the photos with PhotoSync?

Imported images upside down and blurred Lightroom 1.4

Hiya everyone. First post on here so I hope I am putting this in the right place but hope you can help me. I have had a trawl through the archives but havent seen a fix for this problem.
When I try to import images direct from my camera (Canon EOS 30D)into Lightroom, they have started to be displayed on the IMPORT page upside down and very poor quality. If I go ahead with the import they are displayed in LR proper in the correct orientation and clear quality.
I have done a system restore back to a few days ago when it was working ok, and have tried uninstall and then reinstall. I have also taken my camera back to its default settings in case that is the cause, but nothing has worked.
I am using the following -
Lightroom 1.4
Dell Studio 1535 laptop
Windows Vista
Intel Core Duo @2GHz
4GB Ram
Hope you can help as I am wary of putting all my photos on LR now in case it fails - I am using Picasa as a storage instead.
Thanks everyone

Are you going straight from the camera? Take my advice - don't. Use a card reader instead.

Images from Canon50D via cable/usb port are upside down and reversed

Hi friends, When I attach a cable to my 50D and the usb port the images appear to be upside down/reversed on the preview screen in lightroom. They actually do load correctly, and if I use a card reader I don't have the problem. This is so wierd! thoughts? thanks, s

Re: Attaching camera: Don't do that!
It must be some odd juxtaposition between the OS, how it 'sees' the camera, and perhaps auto-rotate.

IPod display is upside down and mirror image - fixable?

The display on my mom's iPod display is upside down and mirror image. I can read the menus if I hold the iPod horizontal, and look into a mirror about six inches in front of my nose, but it's inconvenient.
I have tried the 5 R's (except for upgrading the Mac OS 10.3.9 - she has an 800 MHz G3 iBook and won't support Leopard). Apparently the songs all reloaded and play OK, but the display is hard to read without (and with!) the mirror.
I found a similar help request from last June, but no solution.

I have the same problem, have you found a solution.

How can I mount iSight upside down and flip the image?

My Custom desk setup wont fit any of the given iSight mounts. The only way I can mount it is upside down but can;t find a way to flip the image...
Power PC G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) Flat Panel Display

I'll put in my 2 cents for this app. Works GREAT with iSight and QT Pro and iMovie HD. Seen it pop up on other apps (iChat for one) but rarely use it on for these few apps. Safari opens iGlasses for some reason... Anyone know why?
