Slideshow - just shows a black screen

I set up a photo album on iWeb, but when I am visiting the site, clicking the the Play Slideshow command opens a black screen that does nothing. I did enable the slideshow option in the Inspector.
I'm using Safari.
Any suggestions???

All of your slideshows work but they take a looong time to load and I've got a very fast connection. What type of connection do you have? I'm using Safari 4b. You may just have to wait longer for all of the files to load before they display in the slideshow. For example your 1945-70 has 83 photos. Change the slides per page to 30 and each page will load much faster. The last group has 98 per page on the first page. Reduce that to around 30 and have more pages.
You have a several options:
1 - fewer photos per page.
2 - use an application like Web Site Maestro to optimize your site files and then upload them to your iDisk.
3 - move your site to a commercial hosting service like Host Excellence, GoDaddy, etc. which will vastly increase load times.
4 - move to a commercial server AND use Web Site Maestro or similar which will help make the site more accessible to those using the outdated Internet Explorer.
MobileMe is just not setup for commercial use and, as a result, is much slower than other servers.

    Hi 22chill,
    I recommend that we delete and re-download the movie from your purchase history:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    MacBook Pro  / Mozilla Firefox / Netflix / Silverlight Update solved - DON'T DWNLOAD FROM NETFLIX
    I solved this problem tonight. I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.8. I know, it's old. But I love my Netflix and I recently noticed that Firefox plays Netflix much better.  Then I suddenly got this message that I needed to download the latest Silverlight - it only takes 30 seconds! - WRONG.   However, after much searching, I finally did the steps in order and it worked.  
    This was after repeatedly downloading Silverlight from the Netflix site without success.  So here's what I did:
    1. Went to http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx
    2. Followed the directions. I felt like such an idiot for not doing it right before.
    3. Go to your hard drive and search for "Silverlight" to locate ANY existing Silverlight files: .dmg, etc.
        [also check your Libary/ Internet Plug-ins, but the above search is faster]
    4. Drag it all to the trash and empty it.
    5. Go back to the Get  Silverlight page and click on the Install on that page, not the Netflix site.
    6. Note the steps for Safari or Mozilla Firefox - I wanted Firefox, so I follwed those instructions.
    7. Once it's installed, close all the browsers and Restart that bad boy. Right away.
    8. Open a browser, go to Netflix and proceed to joyfully rot your brain with Netflix content. Yay!

    Try booting into Safe Mode , if it works then you know its a software issue. If not then  you will have to take it in for service.

    Just to make certain, you inserted the original installation disk and started the MBP holding down the C key?  Did the Optical drive reject the disk or did it just spin?  If the former, the lens in the drive may be dirty and needs to be cleaned.  If the latter, you will have to take it to an Apple repair facility.
    Ciao.

  • IMac 11.3 as second display in Maverick, just shows a black screen

    I'm trying to reuse my iMac 11.3 mid 2010 (ATI HD 5750) as second display for my MacPro 1.1 (ATI HD5770 + 24" Cinema) through a mini display cable. This used to work fine in 10.8. Now both computers are upgraded to 10.9 and iMac only shows a black screen when pressing Cmd+F2 on the iMac.
    Any hints appreciated besides this is only supported for +2011 models

    Yes I agree it is something wrong with Safari, but WHAT?
    I have two macs sitting beside each other, both running Safari pointed at a .pdf file; one runs adobe just fine, the other shows black.
    No amount of pawing through the Preferences tree shows me anything remotely relevant.

    Are you getting an "iTunes has stopped working" message after the black, screen? Or is something a bit different going on?

  • My instant watch for netflixs is not working on my macbook pro. I just shows a black screen. I know that the problem is not Silverlight, so what other type of software or upgrades am I missing?

    Go figure both Apple support and Netflixs support "have never seen a problem quite like mine" the same day my free trial has ended. And no the, problem is not with my Netflixs account because they charged my debit card just fine. I'm trying to play instant movies on my netflixs account and every time I click on a movie or show it just shows up a black screen with no play controls. According to Netflixs I'm either missing a peice of software or I need to uninstall and reinstall a program or plug-in or something. At first they thought it was Microsoft Silverlight, but I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling that several times and nothing has changed, plus since I had no play controls as well the problem is definetly not Silverlight. So I was wondering what other types of software or plug-ins are needed to play Netflixs movies or if anyones else has had the same issue and knew how to fix it. And I know that it is a problem with my Macbook Pro, because my netflixs accout still works on my sister's computers. I've tried restarting my computer, restarting Firefox, signing out and back in on Netflixs, praying to God, clearing my cookies and chache, saying nice things to my laptop, yelling at my laptop, and pretty much everything under the sun. Nothing I do is fixing it. Please someone help me figure this out.

  • I can't watch any of my videos on itunes. It just shows a black screen.

    I'm trying to watch one of my tv shows, but it opens up to a black screen. I tried every video on my itunes, but i'm still having the same problem. I uninstalled itunes and reinstalled it, but I keep having the same problem.

    Hi petewils63,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions forums!
    It sounds like you may have a damaged program, try uninstalling and then reinstalling iTunes.
    hope that solves your problem.
    regards,
    Pete.
