Preview window goes black on 10.0.3

Hi, since I upgraded to 10.0.3 my preview window will go blank while editing.  It only happens when playing from teh timeline.  I can go back to the Event Window and scrib video and see it, but once it goes blank on the timeline, I cannot get it to come back unless I cut or add some new video to the timeline.
I am only using Optimzed Pro Res 422 video so it has nothing to do with that.
I removed all filters and it still does it.
I trashed my preferences and it still does it.
So it's definitely a bug.
Other also experience the problem as can be seen in this thred:  http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1307196
Anybody else experiencing it?  Anybody figure out a solution?
Thanks so much!

  • Preview window goes black

    hey everyone,
    i have final cut pro on my macbook running mountain lion, it has worked forever and although it takes some time to start, while it's running its great. I had to use it for a project today because iv had another problem on imovie. Anyway, im importing mov and mp4 videos from my harddrive, into two seperate events. The first event, had the same problem, but after i started using a movie, they all showed up. the problem is that they are on my library and in the event, but the preview window shows as black. and if i pull one of these videos to the time line, the audio plays but the image continues black. I cant understand what the problem, is and why one of the events turned ok and the other didn't... any ideas? what can i do?
    Thanks

  • Multicam : my 2 angles preview windows are black

    I try to make a multicam with 2 different footages and even I converted both in FCPX, when I make a multicam my 2 angles preview windows remain Black   When I click on both black windows to make my multicam final footage, it's working, I mean the Multicam footage is working well (but I have to do it in blind mode).
    I'm 10.0.7 and my Imac is a mid2010 corei7 + 16Go so everything is usually working well...
    FYI I tried with several different footages (GoPro, 5DMKII, etc) and it's the same.
    I chose automatic settings for the TL and for the multicam.
    Any idea ?

    Sure, here it is :

  • I just upgraded to 10...and now links and buttons black out when my cursor moves over them, and my entire window goes black whenever I scroll.

    I just upgraded to Firefox 10 and had to go back to 3.6 because 10 doesn't seem to work on my computer. I have a windows 7 pc. After upgrading, whenever I moved my cursor over a button or link, that link blanks out or a black bock appears over it. Additionally, whenever I try to scroll, the entire window goes black until I stop scrolling.

    Hi Nester88,
    I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Mini guide and little video preview window causing Black screen!!!

    I now have the same issue. Pressing the B button used to give me a pip with the guide on screen at the same time as live TV in the lower right corner. Now when pressing B the small box with live TV appears in the corner but the guide goes black. Pressing B again, closes the small pip window and restores the guide - different from what it was doing before.

  • IPhoto windows goes black (photo disappears) when editing

    I recently upgraded to iPhoto 11 and was editing a photo when it disappeared. Basically, the entire iPhoto window went black and I was unable to make an edits.
    When I went back to the Events page the picture was there looking normal. But I am unable to edit the photo because any time I go to make a change, the picture disappears.
    I restarted iPhoto and rebuilt the database, the thumbnails... every option available when restarting holding the Option + Command keys. Still no joy.
    Anybody have any clue what's going on?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. *Permissions in the Library* : Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. *Minor Database corruption*: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. *A Damaged Photo*: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. *A corrupted iPhoto Cache*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. *A corrupted preference file*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    *If none of these help*:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    Regards

  • Firefox 21 whole window goes black after being opened for a few seconds

    After most recent update (21 I think), Firefox window goes all black - no buttons, anything, a few seconds after opening. Sometimes it'll last a few minutes before going black. Start menu remains so I can minimize it, close it, etc. Audio if playing on the page will continue to play after blackout. Tried all basic tricks including uninstall/reinstall.
    Windows 7 64bit ATI Radeon 5XXX 4gb ram. Other browsers work fine. All else seems to be fine with Firefox before it goes black.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Preview monitor goes BLACK when I pause.

    I'm using a 15" Macbook Retina with the Nvidia 650M GPU, and up until the 2014 version of CC was released I could use the CUDA acceleration. Now, I cannot use it without the video going black the second I pause. Help is appreciated.

    Tyler,
    Try the following:
    Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
    Trash preferences
    Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write
    Delete media cache
    Remove plug-ins
    Repair permissions
    In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
    Create a new user account with Admin privileges and launch Premiere Pro from there.
    Disconnect any third party hardware
    Reboot
    Report back if anything here worked for you.
    Thanks,

  • Fresh Install window goes black updating pac

    I am new to this, I installed the system configured my wired connection the wirless I still don know how. So I was trying to install gnome and following the directions the first thing is update pacman so I ran # pacman -Syu and in the middle of the download the screen just goes black.
    Has this happened to anyone?

    Are you sure that this isn't some sort of power saving mode?
    If I remember correctly, my monitor blacked out as well during first update because of inactivity.
    All you have to do is hit a key on your keyboard.
    And forgive me if you consider this stupid, I work with tech support

  • Firefox main window goes black and all tools disappear.

    Occasionally the Firefox main window will go black and all tools disappear.
    It ends up with a black window, a blue frame, and the three buttons in the top right corner (minimize, maximize and close). If any audio (or video) is playing, the sound continues. If I click the X at top right to close it, it closes and when I restart it everything is ok. See the screenshot below.
    This only happens once a day or so. I have no way of predicting it other than I'm usually scrolling down the page when it happens. It has happened in safe mode.
    I'm using the most recent Firefox, 33.0.2, on Win 8.1 on an i5 system with 8G RAM.
    <img src="http://i.imgur.com/Awx1fD0.png"/>

    Try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
    *layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = false
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

  • Help with a black preview window?

    I'm a bit of a novice, so please keep that in mind!
