Since installing Snow Leopard, FCP doesn't support second display

I'm running the new Mac Mini and have an LCD TV connected to the second port. I could edit before in FCP and the second screen would display whatever I selected in FCP (browser or canvas). Now it's not working. In View --> Video Playback, the second monitor isn't available.
Does anyone else have this experience?

Not sure if it will work for Youtube, as Youtube is a blend of HTML5 and Adobe Flash, but here is how to set Realplayer as the default:

It may have better luck working with any video that is MPEG-4 since Realplayer adopted that format.
http://www.flip4mac.com/ offers support on Quicktime for Windows Media videos.  If that plugin has not been updated for your current operating system, that may be the source of your other problems.
Microsoft Silverlight offers additional video support that is operating system specific, which you'd need to check the version is compatible with your operating system.

    You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.

  • Since installing Snow Leopard and Lion two weeks ago, my iTunes program opens seemingly at will.  It usually starts playing music, too.  What is causing this?

    Since installing Snow Leopard and then Lion on my Intel-based iMac two weeks ago, my iTunes program seems to open at will whenever the computer is on.   It often begins playing music, as well.  What is causing this and how do I make it stop?

    There are ways to minimize, mitigate, and help avoid a lot of problems.
    Bootable backups.
    Zeroing a drive twice before using, and format it with SL DVD Apple Disk Utility for sure.
    Even a clean install should import old apps without having to reauthorize.
    If you must do an upgrade, do it from the SL DVD, after repairing the drive and be sure to use the SL version of Alsoft Disk Warrior (4.2).
    Wait six months before jumping on a new OS.
    10% is still too many. Yes, it is more sensitive to RAM and hard drive errors, doesn't like some controllers; most ext hdd cases; and enough software to make for test-only status. And it only IDs some known incompatible applications, drivers, extensions, etc and does not remove even those always in best manner.
    Plus, there are problems with the new Rosetta and the cache files it now uses. So some apps and plug-ins will cause more trouble. Not all are ready. Good reason to hold off for the months it takes.
    Other devices act different as far as on/off behavior.
    (Migrating from G5s to Mac Pro can cause all kinds of problems, weird behavior, sluggish system, and why anyone that went down that road was strongly recommended to NOT use Migration Assistant for any of their applications, and to ONLY do clean/fresh installs of any apps. If you skipped that day, didn't read the Guide to M.A., or didn't want to do fresh installs then, your system could have been on borrowed time. If you did do clean install of applications, great.
    Installing SL can result in a corrupt directory - I think and it "seems" to be happening, but no real proof, just gut feeling and instinct (underlying file system problem? weak sectors that pre-existed waiting to happen?).
    Remember all the "there just aren't a lot of 64-bit drivers" for Vista and XP? it's come home to roost.
    ... my guess is not enough incense and offerings. To hop into TimeMachine and SuperDuper backup images and pull the 1TB for another day (week, month, year).

  • Why can't I open InDesign Docs in Bridge since Installing Snow Leopard?

    I have CS3 Indesign. I have recently installed Snow Leopard. Since doing that I am unable to open Indesign files within Bridge. I get a very strange message that says 'missing required parameter 'from' for event open. What does that mean and can I fix it. If I drag my document to my desktop, most of the time it opens but sometimes it does not. I have to go up to the file menu and open from there. Is it a Bridge problem or is it an InDesign problem. Very annoying! Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?
    Also since installing Snow Leopard, I am unable to open multiple files in Photoshop. Once again I am doing this from Bridge.
    Any information would be most appreciated.

    Does this older thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/486185?tstart=90 solve your problem? Apparently, some characters are not (anymore!) allowed in file names.

  • Quicktime player problems since installing Snow Leopard

    Since installing Snow Leopard my Quicktime plays weird. The are sharp horizontal streaks and glitches where the picture smears (the only way I can describe it). If I restart or shut down and restart, that sometimes resolves the problem, but for only a short while.
    Any suggestions from any of you pro guys out there?

    Hi:
    I'm not a pro, but I think I would download the OS X 10.6.4 combo updater and apply it. Something may have gone wrong with the initial update. Alternatively, I would reinstall OS X 10.6 from the software install DVD and then run software update.

  • Since installing snow leopard on my macbook itunes won't work

    Since I installed snow leopard my itunes wont open it comes up with an error message   The fiel "iTuneslibrary.itl" cannot read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes,
    Can someone help me through this.  Its very frustrating, I was forced to install snow leopard in order to download itunes 10, so that it would recongize my iphone.

    Nothing should happen to the old content.  Still, you should make a backup first because once a month somebody claims something horrible did happen during an update and now they have lost all their music, their dog died, their car crashed, and they got a C- in English literature.  Oh, and it is all Apple's fault for not telling them they had to back up.

  • My airport on my old MacBook is not working since installing snow leopard.

    I installed snow leopard last week and started having problems maintaining connections to wifi. It got to the point it was not connecting at all. I have tried all the suggestions posted on online forms to no avail. I finally reinstalled Snow Leopard and have the same problem. I find this very upsetting as I have bought uniquely apple products for the past 13 years. I buy only apple software and I think as a loyal customer I deserve better than this....

    I have tried all the suggestions posted on online forms to no avail.
    Please describe in detail all you have attempted to do in order to resolve the issue in case there were things you missed.
    I think as a loyal customer I deserve better than this....
    I'm a loyal Chevy car owner and I am treated no differently than a first time Chevy owner.  Apple is just like any other huge corporation, they treat all their customers the same.  Doesn't matter if you're loyal or not. 
    Mac OS X (10.6)
    Use Software Update to update your os and anything else that needs to be updated.  You are seriously outdated for Snow Leopard.

  • Why does my DVI to S Video adapter not work on my Macbook Pro since installing Snow Leopard?

    The Apple DVI to S Video Adapter worked before installing Snow Leopard.  Now I just get a blue screen.

    .wpl appears to be a Windows Media Player playlist. I can find no conversion software for that, and Windows Media Player is not available for Mac anymore.
    If you can persuade him to download iTunes and create the playlist as mp3 in a iTunes playlist, or even just burn the base mp3 files to CD as a data disc, that's about the only solutions I can suggest.

  • Clean Install Snow Leopard/FCP

    Hello,
    I just replaced my internal hard drive on my Mac Pro, initialized it, installed Snow Leopard and now am about to install FCP7 upgrade.  Do I need to install FCP6 first and then the FCP7 upgrade??  Any help would be AWESOME!

    No, you install FCS 3 only. Early in the installation process, you will be asked to provide your FCS 3 serial. The program will recognize it as an upgrade number and will request your original full install serial number. Enter that, and life is good.

  • Application crashes/pixelation and remnants since installing snow leopard

    Since a HD replacement and installation of Snow leopard 10.6.1 I get frequent application crashes accompanied by partial or complete pixelation of my display including freeze of finder.
    Or, if not a total crash, I am getting lots of remnants around open application windows..like partial window frames..in black about 50 of them something like [[[[[[[[[[[[[application]]]]]]]]]]]].
    What is up with this??? Can it be corrected.
    Last week Apple store replaced my HD and loaded it with Leopard..and it really hasn't run very well since then? All these problems started. Should I just take it back and say;;NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! FIX THIS MESS!!
    Just wondering at the problems and mess that are taking more time than I can give.

    HI Gary,
    *Should I just take it back and say;;NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! FIX THIS MESS!!*
    Try the following first...
    Run the Apple Hardware Test from your iMac install disk. (Not the SL disk).
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509
    Also, check the start up disk for errors.
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 10% to 15% free disk space
    *get frequent application crashes*
    If these applications are 3rd party, then try deleting them. They may not be compatible with 10.6.

  • No video preview since installing Snow Leopard

    Hi,
    I feel like a new-be but since installing FCP 7 and Snow Leopard I am having problems.
    Right now if I put anything in the time line the canvas viewer only show a blank white screen.
    Can anyone give me a cue as to what is going on or what aI set wrong?

    Go to System Preferences > Displays > Display.
    Switch the Colors button from Millions to Thousands then back to Millions again.
    Yes, it is Stupid. No, it is not a proper fix. But it works.
    Also, just to cover all bases, make sure your Viewer and Canvas are set up correctly:

  • Since installing Snow Leopard 10.6.8 I can't print checks on Quicken 2006.  I also discovered that  my M.S. Word 2004 freezes and won't work when I try to "save as".

    Unfortuantely you are victim of bad timing.  Apple did release a followup security update that fixes those issues. You can download it from:

  • IWork '05 will not work since installing Snow Leopard

    I have iWork '05 and use Pages and Keynote. Since I installed the Snow Leopard update, when I open Pages all I get is the side toolbar and nothing else. I went to preferences and choose "open blank template" and then it says that it is "unable to open", and I tried using a template that I have created previously and that would not open either. When I choose "Open on Template Chooser" then nothing happens.
    I can't get any files to open or new documents.
    I am unable to install updates for iWork because I am running '05 and not '09.
    Please help.

    iwork05 is not compatible with snow leopard. you need to get a newer version. iwork08 is available on amazon for 20$ used and 30$ new.

  • Mac pro quad core overheats since installing snow leopard OS

    I seem to have a lot of overheating since installing on my pro tower. the fan runs constantly. additionally, the monitors go to sleep on their own and I can't wake them back up. does LION OS fix this or am I doomed?

    Bad or faulty RAM
    Poor power cable connection to the back or to the outlet
    Running off a UPS that is too small (you want 900W / 1350VA range)
    Of course disconnect all peripherals but mouse/kb and try in Safe Mode.
    Reset SMC www.apple.com/support/macpro
    Run Apple Hardware Test
    I wouldn't rule out it being the ATI 5770 either.
    I know there are other threads w/ identical symptoms.
