Video clips not diplaying in viewer and color changes in canvas

I have been using Final Cut Pro 7 successfully on my computer for some time. Suddenly I am getting white preview and canvas screens. The video clips are not previewing (but audio is present) and the canvas show dark color outlines and extremely degraded image. I have uninstalled and reinstalled final cut pro but there is no change.

I trashed preferences which had no effect and then entirely uninstalled fcp using fcp remover which removes all related files and then reinstalled it and the problem remains.

Up until approx 2 months ago I could select video clips downloaded from my camera and e-mail them.Iphoto9.4.3. This no longer works. I have tried dragging to my desktop and exporting to my desktop. I am not sure what has changed. Any ideas?

Simply, sharing video via email is not advisable.
Many email services have an attachment limit of 20mb and some a limit of 10mb. As emails are sent through an array of relays, the effective limit is the smallest file size allowed on any of the relays. That means that video is rarely suitable for emailing.
Then there's the whole issue of Codecs and not all machines will have the codecs to play all videos. Plus, folks with slower connections can find it very inconvenient to download large video files.
Finally, sharing video from iPhoto via email is not supported. All that gets you is the Movie thumbnail. If you feel you must share via email then you'll need to export the video first, and attach that. Use the File -> Export command and set the kind to Original.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Other than that your options include:
Upload it to a sharing site like YouTube or Vimeo and email a link - these will allow the recipient to view the material online. That will avoid the codec issues mentions, and the person can still download the video file if they wish.
Upload it to sharing services like Dropbox or YouSendIt and email a link. This will require that they download the material to their machines to view.

Is there a way to play video clips that use adobe flash and if not when are you going to resolve your problem with them ? I won't buy another apple product until you do and I Know I,m not the online.

Use the search feature and type in Flash and there are like thousands of posts on this.

Audio from video clips not playing

this is weird, the audio associated with my video clips plays in the viewer, all the audio wave are present, but they are not all playing with the time line. one clips audio starts playing then cuts out. All my other tracks (music) are playing good. I have tried selecting and deselecting, and mute, also tried restarting, rendering and unrendering, and everything else mentioned in other similar cases with no luck. I am running a system with an inadequate graphics card, but this is audio right, simple right?

If your audio is 32 bit, then it's not 16 bit.
You audio will need to match your sequence settings. You are likely looking for audio to be 48Khz/16bit
Take the offending piece of audio and export it with the appropriate settings to match your sequence.
1 Select your sequence, then choose Sequence > Settings.
2 Check the sample rate of the sequence in the Audio Settings area of the General tab,
then click OK.
3 Select the offending audio clip in the Browser that you want to convert to a new sample rate.
4 Choose File > Export > Using QuickTime Conversion.
5 Choose AIFF from the Format pop-up menu.
6 Click Options.
7 In the Sound section of the Movie Settings dialog, click Settings.
8 In the Rate pop-up menu, choose the sample rate of your sequence, then click OK.
Make sure the size is kept at 16-bit.
9 Click OK.
10 Choose a new name and location for the new file, then click Save.
Once the conversion is complete, you need to import the new media file into
Final Cut Pro.
11 Import the newly converted audio media file, and use that as the audio portion of your clip.

Hi, is there any option how I can edit duration of multiple video clips (not stills) in iMovie 11, lets say if I want them 2 seconds long? Many thanks for any advice... Tom

Illustrator not recognizing some fonts and colors.

My recently installed Illustrator is not recognizing certain fonts and colors which is producing problems in my designs.
1. When I drag in a PDF to edit, the letters will appear as gibberish (random numbers, letters and signs) (the font was "arquitectura" which is installed on my OS X I Mac)
2. When I try to change the color of a font using the eyedropper tool, it shows the proper color in the color box, but the font remains black.
After googling it, these problems seem frequent back in 2009 but not so much today. Im thinking it has something to do with this, which prompts when I open the application:
"Your application install seems to be damaged, Please reinstall the application."

sugarfactory,
"Your application install seems to be damaged, Please reinstall the application."
Obviously, you should. It is best to run the Cleaner Tool between uninstalling and reinstalling.

I can select a rating and a color label for my images, but I can not sort by rating and color label.

I can select a rating and a color label for my images, but I can not sort by rating and color label. when I click on the filter drop down, color label is not one of the options. how do I get both ratings and color lables as an option to sort with.

You can Filter (not sort) on both color label and rating if you want, open the Filter Bar with the backslash key, then click on Attribute, and then select the stars and color label of interest. If you really meant "sort" and not filter, then you can't do this in Lightroom.

I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play.

I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play. Can anyone help?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

How can I get video clips dated 12/29/10 and later do not show in view screen. (iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo w/OSX 10.6.8)

Pre 12/29/10 clips show fine in viewer window but anything more recent does not. Consequently, I don't have any way to work with them. I'm still on iMovie '08. Would upgrading to '11 help? My video clips were entered into iPhoto from a Canon still camera with the ability to take one minute video. The video format is labeled MVI (#) AVI in iPhoto. None of the video clips run in iPhoto but they all run on my 1st generation iPad!
Can anyone help me with this problem? I'd like to do a movie of my grandson as well as our new puppy.
Thanks, Ruth Sumner

You are only running on 2GB of RAM. IMHO 4GB woud be the minimum to realistically run Mavericks on, although the more the better.

Clip notes with reader 9 and premiere cs4

After upgrading reader to version 9 clip notes no longer works from Premiere CS3. It does work with premiere CS4 but a modification to reader by the reviewer is required to view the clip notes. Otherwise the video play/rewind etc buttons will be missing. This modification is detailed here www.alserver.co.uk/clipnotesreadme.pdf.
I have discovered this after many hours of trial and error and have posted the workaround here for anyone else with the same problem. Adobe support have been as much use as a chocolate tea pot! why do they ruin such great feature of premiere.
If anyone knows of a better workaround then please advise.

...real-time playback works fine in other high-load editing programs, as in the 2-series version of Avid Media Composer (which, by the way, played back just fine on my GeForce card and CPU/RAM configuration.) I wanted to go to Premiere because of my other CS programs. That said, I'd like to take a different approach other than simply throwing money and horsepower at a problem that might simply be a configuration issue.
Thanks!

Video clip not visible

Last night I imported a number of video clips and an audio file and arranged them how I wanted. Everything was working. I left it to render over night and now, this morning, the main video clip is no longer visible or audible. Although as you can see in the time line, the audio shows there - and the video is recognized in the upper right window. (The shortcut V is not being used.)
When the entire project is playing - the lower clip is what is visible and the other audio files work properly.
After rebooting the system, I then tried to relink the file and no change. I then copied the individual file and pasted it in a different folder and relinked the file - and no change. I tried to just take the clip and drag it into Final Cut Pro, and the software will not allow it. But when I tried it with a completely different video, there were no problems.
I can open the individual video seperately in Quick Time Player and it plays perfectly.
How can I get the video back into Final Pro? It is just the one video.

I deleted the video from my camera once it was in and I was working with it, so not able to reimport from the camera.
When I tried to drag it, I dragged it from the folder and I was placing it onto the timeline (which then adds it to the project) I don't typically do that, but thought I would try it and it worked with a different clip but not this one. The circle with the line through it came up above my mouse for the video I want, but not for the other clip. It is almost like it changed its properties somehow, but everything is the same as far as I can tell.

Add a video clip (not in camera roll) to iphoto journal?

Hi.
I am creating a photo journal album using iphoto on ipad.
I would like to add a movie clip filmed by iphone.
I made an album that includes all the photos and a movie clip in icloud (photo stream), and I can see photos and the movie clip on ipad , however, when I tried to add the movie clip in iphoto from edit-add-photos menu, I can't find the movie clip in the list.
My guess is that you can add any photos taken by any devices through icloud, or photo galleries, but somehow it doens't accept any movie clips filmed by other devices (has to be filmed and saved in camera roll of the same device that you are making the photo journal)?
I can see other movie clips filmed by the ipad in the edit-add-photos menu.
Are there any way to add my movie clip filmed by iphone and add to journal?
Or, are there any way to move my movie clip filmed by iphone to the camera roll in ipad?

lizdance40,
Thanks for the great tip how to download a photo from photo stream to camera roll on different devices.
However, when I select a movie clip saved in "shared stream", the box with arrow you mentioned disappears (I tried several movie clips from several "shared stream"s, and the results are the same).
To solve my problem, I guess I have to remake a new web journal on iphoto on the same device the movie clip is saved( in camera roll).
This is my understanding of iphoto, (but if I am wrong, please let me know)
When you make a web journal on iphoto (on ipad, iphone, etc),
1. You can't add a movie clip saved in other devices to a web journal.
2. You can't edit the same web journal on other devices (you can view web journal on other devices, but not edit).
3. Mac version iphoto dosen't have a menu to make a web journal.
It's easier to make a web journals on ipad or mac, but who wants to make a movie clip with ipad??

At least the view. I have tried to set it up with the proper angle, then have done a "save as" but that does not work.

Video does not play in Viewer or Canvas

Hi, I am new to Final Cut Pro. I just imported a couple of .mov files into FCP and have added them to a sequence. When I try to play the files on the Canvas, the video does not play (just shows the first frame). Same goes for Viewer window for an individual file. Help!

You can't really use H264 directly in Final Cut Pro without a lot of hassle.
Your audio has the wrong sampling rate. Digital audio for video is always 48000 kHz.
Use QuickTime Player or Compressor to export a copy of your files using the ProRes codec with the correct audio settings. Bring those into FCP.
