Video just show up as a black icon
I just combined a couple of different Iphoto libraries onto my Imac and unfortunately all of the videos that I shot with my iphone or Flip just show up as black squares. Is there a way to change this? They still play but I can't tell what they are until I click on them.
The pattern I see is a problem with the videos in iframes that use a secure (HTTPS) URL. The player loads into the iframe, but the media never loads.
You can extract the iframe src URLs and display them above the iframes for diagnosis using a little snippet of script.
Open Firefox's Web Console below the page by pressing Ctrl+Shift+k. Then paste the following next to the caret (») and press Enter to run it:
var ifs=document.getElementsByTagName("iframe"); for (var i=0; i<ifs.length; i++) {var p=document.createElement("p"); p.appendChild(document.createTextNode("iframe src="+ifs[i].getAttribute("src"))); p.style.color="red"; ifs[i].parentNode.insertBefore(p, ifs[i]);}
But... I can't figure out why there is a problem. ??

I love the new App Tabs but have several that when pinned just show a white page as the icon, so you have to mouse over them to figure out which one is which. Example is bankdirect.co.nz. Is there a way of getting the site logo to show up so you can see what is what at a glance but still have the nifty space saving size of the App Tab? Thanks!

Thanks for that. I have to say that there were a couple of screens that appeared to show both the iPhone and iPad and it was the iPad that was showing the icon!
It is not life threatening, I just thought that something had not installed as it should have.

Thanks for your comment.

Video embeds show up as empty black squares
Related to: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/967209
In firefox 27, 28, and nightly youtube embeds frequently show up as blank black squares. I cannot even right click them to inspect the iframe containing the video. No controls whatsoever are available. Safe mode does not change this behavior. Disabling the Shockwave Flash plugin causes the videos to load correctly as html5 video. Flash youtube embeds work fine in IE11 and chrome.
Ex: the 4th and 5th video embedded in this page http://lajollacreative.com/blog.html are blank while the first 3 load fine and appear to be using the html5 player.
Edit: If I go to http://lajollacreative.com/blog.html and modify the URL in the iframes of the offending videos to remove the "http:" or "https:" the video loads correctly. It seems that flash youtube embeds are broken in firefox if the URL is prefixed with "http:" or "https:"The pattern I see is a problem with the videos in iframes that use a secure (HTTPS) URL.

My music videos just show a bunch of bright colors
I recently had some work done on my computer including cd/dvd writer, and I'm running XP. Anyways now my videos are coming up as a bunch of rainbow like colors. What's up with that, it's from the ones I purchased from itunes and the ones I didn't.
try working through the possibilities from the following document. (disabling Direct3D acceleration is often the step that works for folks with your symptoms.)

My iPhone prompted me to download the latest version of iOS7. I did, and now my phone won't power on. It just shows an iTunes icon on a black screen. When I connect my phone to iTunes on my laptop, the only option it gives me is to restore my phone's factory settings. But won't this erase all my photos, contacts, etc? Any suggestions?
It's in recovery mode. You don't have a choice. You have to restore the phone. Anything that was on it is already gone.
If you've been backing up/syncing on a regular basis, you won't lose anything except what's changed since the last backup. -
hi, i am having a problem in my ipad 2 , it is not showing main screen just showing a black blank screen in which downloading icon is only shwn which is continously and when i connect to itunes via windows 7 it showing this error (0xE8000065) can any one
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -

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! -
My MacBook running Mountain Lion does not allow me to view any videos on the Internet. The place where the video is supposed to be just shows black rectangle. Is there anything I can do to make videos on line work? I discovered that Java quits immediately. Could that be the cause? If so, how do I fix it?

Premiere Pro CS6 playing video but showing black screen?
I recently installed Debut video capture software and installed some codecs for it. I recorded some videos and imported them to premiere. When I put it in the sequence and press play, it just shows a black screen, but the sounds play. I played it in photoshop and vlc fine but not premiere pro. Also, I opened a project i've been working on before the video capture install and it plays the sound but shows a blank preview. It worked fine before. How can I fix this? Do I reinstall premiere, or reset something?
Welcome to the forum.
What CODEC is used by your capture software?
What CODEC's did you install?
Were those recently installed CODEC's in a free CODEC "pack," and if so, which one please?
Good luck,

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.
