Problem getting effects to work properly

Every time I try to add an effect to my video whether it is on my desktop or laptop, I get a black screen replacing the video portion. This occurs whether I have the "over black" box checked or not.

I'm having the same problem, I tried adding the slow/fast/reverse effect, and it simply blacks the clip out. On top of that, it labels the clip as "black" without doing anything else for me

I purchased a MyBook Studio 4gb external hard drive. I can't get it to work properly. WD have assessed it and say its fine and that the problem is with Apple?

Hello EucaBlue!
So in Disk Utility, with the external harddrive selected, go to the Partition tab, and then under "Partition Layout:" select 1 Partition.
After than, verify that it is formatting the drive as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled) under "Partition Information"
Also verify that it's using using the GUID Partition Map under the Options button at the lower left of this window.
Then click apply and confirm that you want to format the drive. It will ask you if you're sure, and probably for an Administrator password.
Once your harddrive is formatted properly, you should be able to use Time Machine, or any other Mac backup software.
Happy tinkering!

Cannot get network to work properly on fresh install

I just got myself a new lenovo laptop and naturally wanted to instakll arch on it immediately.
The network I am on requires me to register the MAC address of the machine before I can access anything more than our intranet. Since this is done via a website, that is obviously difficult to do with arch, so I ran a mandriva livecd first to register it.
Quirk number one: I set up a new partition table and installed arch with grub. somehow one of these things actually changed my MAC address because I needed to reregister it and I could tell there it was a new one registered.
However, booting into arch again and I still can't get it to work properly. pinging our intranet address works fine, but I can't get to the www and so cannot install any new packages.
I've installed mandriva on a separate partition and here it all works fine. So the problem seems to be with Arch. My uneducated guess is that it somehow registers as having a different MAC address in arch, which of course creates a bit of a catch-22 because I can't install the packages needed to go to our intranet website and fix it (I should note - once I re-registered my mac address after creating a new partition table, I could complete a net-install of arch. but no internet access having booted into it).
Anyone know how I can fix this?

but you can check your mac address by using "ifconfig"
also verify if dns (/etc/resolv.conf) and route are well defined
resolv.conf has
# Generated by dhcpcd for interface eth0

rhk.dk is our intranet. I don't know if those numbers mean anything's out of place.

I recently changed from a pc to a mac book. The major issue I am having right now is getting yahoo to work properly. The major thing is autocomplete does not work and I do not know how to load my contacts to "mail".

I recently changed from a pc to a mac book. The major issue I am having right now is getting yahoo to work properly. The major thing is autocomplete does not work and I do not know how to load my contacts to "mail". Furthermore, I cannot attach any type of documents to my emails (Yahoo says there is a problem). I suspect there is a setting somewhere, but I don't know where. Javascript is enabled, so I am out of options

Which os are you using?
Yahoo issues should be posted in their forums or contact Yahoo tech support.

All of a sudden some of my sites have stopped working properly on Firefox and I have had to (reluctantly) go back to Internet Explorer to get them to work properly. Why??? Please help because I always prefer Firefox in all internet stuff

The problem sites have always worked properly on Mozilla Firefox until 2 of them stopped giving full access. I reverted to (yuk) Internet Explorer to see if the problem was still there, but, surprisingly I had full access with both programes. I repeated the attempts a couple of times in Firefox but now have to use IE when I require proper access.
Is the problem in a setting somewhere??
Please help because I HATE IE
Thanks & Regards

IMovie wii no longer share with iDVD. I just upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2 and now I can't get iDVD to work properly. Any thoughts?

iMovie wii no longer share with iDVD. I just upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2 and now I can't get iDVD to work properly. Any thoughts? This is what comes up.....

iDVD does work with Yosemite although, as Kappy pointed out unsupported for 2 years, so try this basic troubleshooting fix:
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents of IDVD'S cache folder: User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD.
3 - launch IDVD and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks or Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
If iDVD crashes again post the first 50 lines of the crash report. Don't post a screenshot but copy and paste the actual text.
To get a movie from iMovie to iDVD it should be exported out of iMovie as 480p and added manually to iDVD.

I can't get iTunes to work properly on Windows 8

I can't get iTunes to work properly on Windows 8. I tried everything and iTunes is NOT compatible with Windows 8. There is either an iTunes issue or a Microsoft issue.

I finally got it to work right. Some files and folders (iTunes video files, etc) were referenced to my iTunes account, I copied from my backup (external) Hard Drive to my system Hard Drive. The only thing that can keep me from accessing my wish list for some time is a very heavy Internet traffic via iTunes players to iTunes Store. So everything is now NORMAL.

I am using Hover for my email address and I can not get it to work properly

I've changed the MX record to 10mx.hover.com.cust.hostedemail.com (Hover's recomendation) but it's still not working.
How Can I get this to work properly?
Thanks for the help!

Hey KoobeP,
I have performed a DNS look-up on the domain stormbluedesign.com and can see that the MX record you have added exists within our DNS: http://screencastmb.worldsecuresystems.com/img/2013-04-24_0949.png. However, this MX record is not pointing to any IP address which leads me to believe the MX record you added is incorrect.
I believe the MX record you need to add is mx.hover.com.cust.hostedemail.com, with a priority of 10. Not 10mx.hover.com.cust.hostedemail.com. But as always, contact your mail service provider for confirmation on the records they require you to add.

"Ken Burns effect" not working properly

Whenever I try to add a still photo to an iMovie 6 project, i get an error chirp and then nothing ends up in the timeline. Often, if I turn off the ken Burns Effect, it imports fine.
Do I need to reinstall? If so, won't that mess up the iLife '09 software already installed? And will it mean that I have to reinstall all my Slick Effects?
Anybody know the answers to these questions?
Thanks in advance.

My list in another way of putting it
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
iMovie pref file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named. *com.apple.iMovie.plist *
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
• Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Garageband-fix. Start it, Play a note and Close it. Re-try (Corrects an audio problem that hinders iMovie)
• Screen must be set to Million-colors
• Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08 or 09)
iMovie updated ?
QuickTime updated ?
Mac OS version ?
• Program miss-match. iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
• Program miss-match. iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iMovie’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
From LKN 1935. (in this case = iMovie HD (5), I tried it all, but nothing worked.
Your answer (above) has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that
there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled
iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos)
to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before.

Can't get my class's getter method to work properly.

Hello, I am new to Java programming, although I come from C and C++. This is my first post. I am working on a basic Library application that can Checkout and Return books. Eventually I would like to add the ability to read from and write to an XML file containing data for every book.
My problem right now is that I cannot get my getter method within my Book class to work properly. When I call getData() from within main, and pass the appropriate arguments, instead of filling the variables with that object's data, it leaves them blank! Please help me.
Here is my method within the Book class, the person and id_num are private.
/* Gets general Book Instance Data and fills parameters with it */
     public void getData(String n, int num, String c, String d)
          n = this.person;
          num = this.id_num;
          c = this.checkout_date_string;
          d = this.due_date_string;
     }Here is how I am attempting to use it in main:
String name = "";
int number = 0;
String checkout = "";
String due = "";
Book book1;
/*Sets person = John Smith and id_num = 10763*/
book1 = new Book("John Smith", 10763);
/*Gets Checkout (todays) date and sets a due date in 2 weeks*/
book1.Checkout();
book1.getData(name, number, checkout, due);
System.out.println("Book1:\n Checkout Date: " + checkout +
                         "\n Due Date: " + due + "\n Is it late: " + book1.isLate() +
                         "\n Person who checked it out: " + name + "\n ID number: " + number +
                         "\n ");Then, Here is the Output:
Book1:
Checkout Date:
Due Date:
Is it late: false
Person who checked it out:
ID number: 0

Well I went ahead and made separate methods to return each value. I suppose that will work just as well, especially since now I don't have to declare a bunch of strings and int's to hold the data and pass to the method.
>
Well this would never work anyway
public void getData(String n, int num, String c, String d)None of those can be changed within the method. Strings are immutable and 'int' is passed by value. Each of those parameters will have the same value after the method exits as they did before it was called.
Your book class should be using 'setters' to set the value of its instance variables.

I can't get anything to work properly in Beta 4.0.3 help?

Tabs are not working properly, when I open a Tab up I get blank screen and when I select a site from Bookmarks it loads on the first tab instead of the tab I opened up. and when I click the X to close the Tabs I opened it won't close. and everything else ceases to work. I can't open Feedback to submit feedback about this bug, nor can I access Add-Ons to see whats Enabled and what's not.
I should of stuck with Beta 4.0.2 instead of upgrading to Beta 4.0.3 because everything was working fine then until this new update destroyed Firefox. I'm going to have to use another browser until this is fixed, because I can't use a browser like this. There's just too many bugs now. :/

That could be an add-on that is causing the problem, there were some changes to Firefox between beta 2 and 3 that would break some add-ons.
Start Firefox in [[safe mode]], in the dialog that pops up select the option to "Disable all add-ons" then click on "Make Changes and Restart".
Then in normal mode you should be able to access the add-ons manager and you can then check for updates to the add-ons. You can also re-enable them one at a time, re-starting Firefox each time to identify the add-on(s) that are not working. Also see the [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.

Can't get netcfg to work properly

I'm currently trying to setup my netcfg. I can connect wirelessly without any problems by the following process:
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwconfig wlan0 essid "networkid"
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
dhcpcd wlan0

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to get my netcfg to work properly so I can set up my wireless to where it connects automatically instead of having to put in commands everytime I log in. Thanks!

If you truly must use wpa-config, make sure there are no directives in the config file outside your network block. Netcfg cannot use wpa_supplicant files that do, and it prints a similar error message if I remember correctly. Also, you may still need to specify your ESSID in the profile, as stated above.
But! Consider just using "SECURITY='wpa'" or "SECURITY='wpa-configsection'" instead of "SECURITY='wpa-config'" Netcfg will generate a wpa_supplicant config file and use wpa_supplicant to manage the connection. Netcfg comes with example syntax for it, and it's much simpler.
