Transistions turn to black

When I apply transitions between clips they play back as black. Preview shows the desired transition effect, but playback of the transition is black.
This is only happening between clips. The same transition will work properly when applied between two still frames. Why is the transition playing back as black when applied between two clips? iMovie HD 6.0.1.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

We are having the same trouble (although some also turn white!). Seems to be the issue with both the included iMovie 6 special effects as well as some that we purchased from cf/x as well. We were able to work around the issue by taking a single clip with nothing done, exporting it to its own iMovie file, adding the effect, then importing it to the movie we were working on. Rather cumbersome to say the least!
Hope someone has help for this as it rather dumbs down iMovie 6 to have no special effects possible. The black/white issue seemed not to discriminate amongst the effects. They all did not work.

My ipad 2 turnes to black screen with the apple icon in the middle, it just hanged and i have to restart it?! so why this is happening ?! is there is an error or something i can do to prevent doing this ?!

my new ipad 2 turnes to black screen with the apple icon in the middle while using it or if i just left it locked for a while, it just hanged and i have to restart it?! so why this is happening ?! is there is a productio error or something i can do to prevent doing this ?!
Appreciate responding as soon as possible.

No, it's definitely not normal. Your User's Guide recommends a series of troubleshooting steps to go through when your iPad is misbehaving: As you're already in effect doing the first of the main steps, a Restart of your iPad, and that's not curing it, move on to the next .. a Reset.
To do this, press and hold both the Home and the Sleep/Wake buttons for about 10-12 seconds, until the display blanks and the red Power Off slider appears. Continue holding the buttons until the slider disappears, replaced by the black screen and white Apple logo.
This shows your iPad is starting to reboot. Release the buttons and allow the process to continue until the Lock screen appears again, then slide the slider to complete the process.

My iMac turns to black sometimes and need to restart it and then turns black again in 2 to 15 mins... how do i solve this problem?

My imac turns to black someitmes. And I need to restart it... sometimes it works good for like 30 min, sometimes it turns black again even when i was typing in my password and need to restart it again and again untill i really angry that i have to leave it alone as i am going to break it.
So, how do i solve this black screen issue?
I can still hearing the musics and vedios and games that are playing.

It sounds like you are having a overheating issue.
As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
You are now in a perfect position to do a

Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.

Still images turn to black backgrounds in the exported movie

I am still using Premiere 2.0. I produced a ca. 25 min project with still images at the beginning and at the end and short videoclips in between. Still images are only ca. 40-50 kB large. When working on it I occasionally got a few problems (e.g. an audio transition across two clips was making Premiere hanging up) but I could easily get around them and successfully preview the project and export it to a folder and directly to a DVD. However, when viewing the movie on TV I found out that almost all (BUT NOT ALL!) the still images had turned into black backgrounds. I have exported the movie as MPEG, more still images were fine but not all of them. I have tried to drastically reduce the number of still images (max 5) but nome of them were fine. I do not have any error message and this problem is driving me crazy! Does anyone have a brilliant idea?
Last year I bought the new version of Premiere (3.0 I believe, surely not 7.0) but I stopped using it after one week because there was no way to successfully export the project I was working on. I made several videos, always got problems but so far I always found a solution on Premiere forum. Hope this time too!
Many thanks for the attention

Try sizing your photos to 1000x750 pixels in size.
Also, right-click on each photo on the timeline and select Field Options and check the Flicker Removal box.
These will give you the best quality.
I am also concerned, however, that you are having technical problems and, especially, that you can not use a newer version of the program.
I'd recommend you install the latest version of Quicktime and the newest RealTek drivers, as we recommend in our FAQ.

My MacBook turn out black screen after restart.

When I restart my MacBook Pro it turn out black scene. At first I can see the apple loading screen and after it turn black after load. So I tried to click on the keyboard the cap lock can be turn on/off and the volume still have sound. I tried to hold the power button for 10 second to see if I restart will i have to same problem but unfortunate it turn out the same. So I try to hold shift control option and power key to turn it off and later turn it on again. But the result is the same... I even uses a touch to shine on the monitor to see is the light problem or not, but I see nothing. Can anyone please help me out.thank you!

I don't know if it's something to worry about per se, but it might be a sign your computer isn't happy. If it's been a while, I would:
- boot up from OS X install disc (shut down the computer and then hold down the C key to make it start from Install disc) then run Disk Utility. Select your hard disk and then select Repair Disk.
It might find/fix the software related problem that is mucking up your computer.
If it starts up normally afterwards, I'd then run "Repair Disk Permissions" from Disk Utility as well (from the macbook is fine - you don't need to restart from the Install disc for Permissions repair).
If everything checks out, and you're still having problems, it might be hardware related, but I'd run Disk Utility first and see if that helps.
Reset the Ram/Pram:: Resetting PRAM and NVRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Try these and post back, I'll do more research and figure this out, promise.\

When moving the MacBook09 screen, turns display black/dimmed

This problem might be a loose wire, but which I highly doubt it...
Anyways everything is working fine w/ the MacBook09, it's just that when I move the Screen; tilt, display screen turns dimmed black(still able to see through it w/ all my programs running etc.) The lights of the screen ONLY come back on if I sleep the laptop OR not move the laptops screen at all.
Has anyone have this issue, and had it fixed some how. By the way, sadly that I don't have warranty for my laptop hopefully it's still fixable.
Please notify ASAP. Thanks Community

I've been havign the same trouble and I tried resetting the SMC (you can find the instructions on apple.com/support/macbook ) and it didn't work for me. I'm taking mine to an authorized shop to see if I should replace the backlight or not. Apparently this is very expensive. My macbook is also from Mid09.

Some movies from my ATV1 I can only hear the movie while screen turns all black. Later it will freeze if I try to fast forward. Any ideas?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
This might be a problem with the movies themselves, where are they from, are they your own movies that you have converted yourself.

Do exactly what the screen is telling you to do. Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. You either have to update the software that way, or you have to restore the iPad because something went wrong with the update.

N8 Display turns totally black when incoming call ...

My N8's display always turns totally black when there is an incoming call, or even when the
alarm rings. Before can see the caller's name and answer the call, I have to disable the screen's "keylock".
I tried to find a point in the phone settings wher I can avoid this, but didn't find any. Is anybody out there to give me a hint ?
Thanx in advance

When I am inside, the screen acts normally: it goes black when held close to face. It returns to normal as soon as taken from my face. However, the screen also goes black if I am outside in daytime when I have an incoming call, and when I make calls also, as soon as I press the green call button. It "thinks" it is near my face. If I slide the button on the right side of the phone down twice, the screen lights back up normally but the touch screen will not function. At that point I cannot answer the phone, or if I'm already making a call I cannot hang up nor press the speaker phone button.
There is nothing over the face of the phone. I removed the protective plastic cover but that did not help.
This seems to occur only when I am outside in the sunlight, so it has something to do with a sensor, either light or heat.
I am aware that this problem has occurred on other N8s. I have not found any solutions for it. Perhaps it is not a problem on every N8. I updated the software last week to 111.040.1511 Symbian Belle. That software date is from 2012-07-28.

Backgrounds of pdfs turning to Black

I'm having an issue when I import pdfs into Aperture the image (a newspaper page pdf) all the white areas turn to black after several seconds.
Any idea of how to get the whites white again?

Yes the white area is transparent,
the strange thing is that the pdf displays correctly for about 10 seconds then converts to black.
When I try to print I get the back version of the pdf.
Is there a preference anywhere to switch the background default on transparent to white?

TIF thumbnails initially populate, but turn 80% black when I "Open With PS"

I'm scanning photographs with a relatively-new Epson 10000XL scanner. I save the scans as ~300MB TIFs, copy the entire folder, then crop the copies with Photoshop CS5 12.0.3 on a Win XP 2.2GHz Pentium Dual Core CPU with 3.25GB RAM. The crop goes fine and the the save seems to go fine. Filesize of all cropped files is consistent. A few days later, I notice the image is 80-90% black, with only the top strip OK. This happens to about 15% of the images I've scanned. The original scans are always OK, so I think I can rule out the scanner. The cropped image thumbnails look good in Bridge, but when I right click and "Open with PS", the thumbnail turns 80% black and an 80% black TIF shows up in Photoshop...baffling. Sometimes half the image is black, but usually it is mostly black. Always, it is the bottom area of the image that is black. I can rescan and recrop the image, but a 15% rescan rate at 6-7 min/scan is killing me. What the devil is causing this? Is this a hardware issue, and if so, is it a RAM deficiency? Defective RAM? Defective hard drive? Conflicting software? Whimpy graphics card? Something else?

Replies to Curt and Omke:
In original post you said you were running Win XP, so it that home computer and work is Win7?
Work PC = Win XP, Photoshop CS5, Dual-core processor and 4 GB RAM. Home PC = Win7, Photoshop 5.0, Quad-core processor and 4GB RAM. Both are 32-bit OS. I cropped and saved 20 of these TIFs on the home Win7 machine, and had no problems with black images at any time. I tested those same TIFs on a work machine that is identical to my Win XP work machine, and had lots of problems with them turning black. This suggests that the OS, video card and/or CPU are causing trouble on the work machine, not necessarily the RAM. It doens't seem to be a problem unique to my PC, but rather to all the PCs that are just like my PC (our organization buys in bulk, and we all have identical PC setups).
Most likely it is the RAM. With a 64 bit machine you are really handicapping yourself with 4 gigs. You also need a good deal of space on the scratch disk, so make sure you have ample free space.
I have 62GB out of 150GB free on C drive, but it’s fragmented. Will try defragmenting to see if that helps. I think, with my 32-bit Win XP, I am limited to 4GB, right? Does a 64-bit system have that much improvement over 32-bit?
Graphics card is the other likely suspect.
On the work PC that is causing me trouble, graphics card= ATI Radeon HD 3450.
In Bridge go to advanced preferneces and check "use software rendering". That will help if graphics card is underpowered.
That will help with what, exactly? Will that help avoid corrupted files? It seems like the problem lies in Photoshop, not necessarily with Bridge.
In photoshop go the edit/kpreferences/file handling and make sure Open GL is not checked.
It was checked. I unchecked it, but still had images turning black on me when I cropped and saved them.
Your files are still OK, they only show not good in Bridge? or are they all damaged?
~15% of cropped scan tifs open mostly black in PS and Windows Explorer, and open mostly black in Bridge full-screen preview also. The other 85% look OK in all programs. The 15% initially look OK as thumbnails in Bridge, but after ~30 min, or if I try to open them in PS or full-screen preview, they turn mostly black. It would appear to me that those 15% of cropped scan files are corrupt, and perhaps only look OK in Bridge initially because Bridge is accessing some embedded low-resolution preview, then later updating the preview using the actual image file, but I’m not sure on that last point.
You state to have PS 12.0.3 in, while I'm on a Mac I have 12.0.4 installed s the latest so first try a software update.
That’s a pretty involved process with our IT dept. I don’t have Admin privileges to do that, but I’ll raise the issue.
Also check your PS performance settings. If you have only 4 GB RAM installed and you did point PS to more then the default and having some other applications open you will become soon short of RAM. (Bridge pointed to that already)
This is a point of confusion for me. PC specs list 3.25GB RAM, but in PS prefs, “Available RAM: 1691MB, of which 71% (1201 MB) is allowed for PS use. I would think PS would at least recognize all the PC RAM as available, but this is also the general trend on my home PC where PS doesn't recognize all the RAm that Windows does...must be a distinction between total RAM and available RAM.
In Bridge Prefs the default setting for maximum file size to build HQ preview is 1GB. Could you check if this is also your case?
Yes, that is the case.
And I also agree with Curt that if you have multiple files open with that size your machine specs should be above average, and you should have at least 10 % free space on your HD.
I’m running at about 50% free HD space, though fragemented. I would like to make some sort of recommendation to IT about a system upgrade, and it seems like a better processor is a key factor, followed by the OS and graphics card. Without going to a 64-bit system, I believe I'm maxed out on RAM, but correct me if I'm wrong. Our organization prefers everyone to be on the same OS, which is why we're all still on WinXP.
