Viewer shows white background instead of free-frame of clip - What happened

Did I accidentally change a setting somewhere? Whenever I pause a clip in the viewer the free-frame turns into a white background so it becomes near impossible to edit. How do you fix this?

  • IPhoto will not open with pictures when I click on the icon.  It does show that it is open on top toolbar. What happened to my photos?

    iPhoto will not open with pictures when I click on the icon.  It does show that it is open on top toolbar. What happened to my photos?

    Did you run any updaters recently, i.e. like just before this happened?  Try this first fix: make a duplicate copy of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete  the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. 
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file,, Cache.dbt, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences..

  • When I place an EPS image it shows White background

    Hi
    Please help me urgent!!!!
    im using CS5
    when i place an EPS image in Indesign, a white background shows.
    First in PS, i clip mask the image and then flatten the image....I was told to do this.
    the i save it as below:
    Save As: Photoshop EPS
    EPS OPTION
    Preview: Macintosh (8 bits/Pixels)
    Encoding: JPEG (High Quality)
    -  Include Halftone Screen (Not selected)
    -  Include Transfer Function (Not selected)
    -  Postcript Colour Management (Not selected)
    -  Include Vector Data (Cannot select)
    -  Image Interpolation (Not selected)
    Then when I place the image in InDesign, i do the foll:
    I select Import Options:
    - Read Embedded OPI Links (not selected)
    - Apply Photoshop Clipping Path (Selected)
    Proxy Generation
    - Use TIFF or PICT Preview (Selected)
    - Rasterise the Postcript (not selected)
    I still get the white background.
    even when I change the Proxy Genertion to Rasterise the Postcript
    Before I should save the image as a PSD (without Clipping Mask and dont flatten the image). the print would come out different colours...not the same. And apparentlt the printer should have a hard time printing the work. So i was told to clipp mask it, flattern the image and save as EPS.
    Please help. Im deseperate and do not know what to do

    Before I should save the image as a PSD (without Clipping Mask and dont flatten the image). the print would come out different colours...not the same.
    Are you saying the printer can't get a .PSD to output, or a PSD's color is unpredictable? Sounds like your printer can print .PSDs, but you  have a color management problem. By different colors do you mean that the printed CMYK color values are different than what was in the placed PSD? If that's the case it may be that the PSD had a profile that conflicted with the InDesign document profile and you are getting unexpected color conversions somewhere in the workflow.

  • Drop-down menus text on white background instead of blue

    I installed Firefox 9.0.1 on a new PC running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.
    The selected option on the drop-down menus consists of black text surrounded by a thin blue border on a white background. This makes it difficult to see. On the old machine and on my laptop, this [selected option] text appears on a light blue background which is easier to see.
    Has something gone wrong in the installation process? Everything else in Firefox appears to be working as before.
    Is there a way of getting back the blue background on the selected option of a drop-down menu?
    Thank you.

    I had this problem. Disabling adblock plus 1.2.2 resolves it. (tools / ad ons)
    Now I have to have adverts, or no Guardian. Tricky choice!

  • LR4.0: Library Grid Compact Cells view shows just numbers instead of filename, etc.

    RAW files (Red) no longer show their filenames in the Library Grid Compact Cells view (now just shows numbers)!
    JPGs (Green & Blue) show nothing at all, including ratings and Pick status, and the Develops are gone.
    This was after having imported a LR3.6 catalog and intermittently using it for a month.
    Data:
    - Catalog is over 1GB in size, over 50,000 images in the Library
    - Windows 7 x64 with SP1
    - LR4.0 x64
    I have not yet tried:
    - Re-importing the LR3 Catalog backup to see what happens.
    - Creating a new LR4 Catalog and see if it displays the data in the Grid Compact Cells view
    I have tried:
    - Optimizing/Integrity Testing the Catalog

    Thank you, Jim. After looking at the View Options again, I found the culprit. I have no idea how the View Option changed in the first place, but that was the solution. Thank you!

  • Make movie coverart use white background instead of black

    The coverArt used for movies and TV shows does not use the full 600x600 pixel size like music albums. It leaves black sections above and below each movie coverArt. Is there any way to change the background color to white so it blends nicely with the rest of the screen?
    Thanks!

    So simple. Sorry to waste your time with that but it was extremely helpful.

  • Design view showing only background.

    I'm working with Dreamweaver MX 2004. Suddenly the design view for one of my pages is showing only the background. The background is part of an external style sheet. There are no scroll bars so it's not just off to the side. The page with the exact same code is online and looks right. If anyone can help me I'd sure appreciate it.

    When things go wrong, validate code & check for errors.

  • For Adobe CC in finder coverflow shows white box instead of file preview

    I cannot get my .psd files that are Adobe CC to show up as anything but a white box in coverflow.
    I run 10.7.5 since that's as far as I can upgrade this 2006 mac pro. My other files show up fine as do other non .psd files such as .jpgs made in Adobe CC. Any helps is appreciated. Thank you.

    I had success with Ai's File > Save As... command on .ai files that have no preview and show only the .ai logo. 
    File > Save on non-preview files keeps the old properties, while Save As...creates a file with the new properties including the thumbnail preview.
    In the Save As... dialog, I use Version: Illustrator CC (17.0) and check Create PDF compatible file and Use compression.
    I'm running Mavericks 10.9.1

  • FCP Viewer shows garbled/garbage footage on certain frames of multiclip. Strange visual glitch. What's wrong?

    Working with footage on a SAN, using multiclips, and when scrubbing through footage, certain frames look like this. Help?!

    How many streams? Hard to tell from the image.
    Has this worked before? If so, what changed?
    Does it work with other codecs?
    Does it work with fewer streams?
    And, no, I can't say I've seen that particular mess before so I'm just offering general troubleshooting ideas.
    Good luck,

  • Page shows white box instead of SWF when parameter swfversion set to 11

    Hi,
    I'm using Dreamweaver CC, and I'm embeding a SWF. When I set the paramter swfversion to 11 the swf wont load, there's only a white box. But when I set it to 10, the SWF loads. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks!

    Hello DJ,
    did you work trough Adobes help link: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flash/cs/using/WSd60f23110762d6b883b18f10cb1fe1af6-7bd1a.html# WSd60f23110762d6b883b18f10cb1fe1af6-7bcea and there esp. the chapter "Specify publish settings for SWF files (CS5)"? You should find some hints for your problem.
    On the other hand - and I find it very interesting - when I embed a swf file by using my DW CC, DW inserts <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0">, it seems at DW plays it safe.  We have had prior experience of this here in the forum, that a lower version works better than a newer one.

  • Firefox suddenly misinterpreting wmode transparent. Instead, displaying my content against a white background, instead of transparent. HELP.

    Please help fix my flash issue!!!!! The menu has always worked perfectly for several years. It suddenly stopped working yesterday.

    Paste this code in the Scratchpad and issue Execute Run to see the change.<br />
    I don't know which script is responsible, but I see the problem in Firefox 3.6.26 as well.
    <pre><nowiki>E=document.getElementsByTagName("embed")[1];
    alert(E.getAttribute("src")+"\n"+E.getAttribute("wmode"));
    document.getElementsByTagName("embed")[1].setAttribute("style","display:none");

  • How do I add a white background or slug to a movie clip?

    Hello, I'm trying to change my background from black to white on a clip in Final Cut Pro 10.0.2. I would like to know how to add a slug... or just change the background color. Any thoughts?

    ProRes 422 doesn't support alpha channels. There is no transparent background in that clip. You'll need to ask your colleague to output it in ProRes 444, I think.
    Roundtrip to Motion or directly importing a Motion project has never been supported in FCP X. It's lame but that's not a .2 change.
    The "official" way to get your motion project to FCP X right now would be to create it as an FCP X generator in Motion and publish it. I'm not sure how you share those published Motion templates as I haven't really gotten into Motion 5 much. This should preserve the transparency.
    I hope they add better Motion integration with the old "Send to Motion" feature soon.

  • IMac suddenly so slow. 3.06GHz, 4GB RAM, OS X 10.7.3. Suddenly endless "cache-ing" going on, esp. when boot up, apps slow to open, 10 sec delay for keyboard hits to appear, colour "wheel" spinning on screen. Lots free HD space. What happened? Help!!

    Suddenly so much "cache-ing" going on in the background, especially after boot-up.  But no new software downloaded recently, and plenty of HD space.
    Apps now take long time to open, keyboard hits sometimes delayed by maybe 10 seconds before registering, the multi-colour spinning wheel often on screen, can hear hard drive whirring around endlessly in background.
    What's happened?  Some sort of virus?  And how to fix, I wonder?  I'm using CleanMyMac and have run that several times, but has no effect.
    Any help gratefully received.  Thanks.

    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Test after each one. Back up all data before making any changes.
    1. Make sure that the right volume is selected in the Startup Disk preference pane.
    2. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up. If there's no change, reconnect them
    3. Reset the System Management Controller.
    4. Reset the PRAM.
    5. Start up in safe mode, then restart as usual. If you can't start in safe mode—for instance, if FileVault is active—then triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /var/folders
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu. A Finder window should open with an item named "folders" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password. Restart and empty the Trash.

  • Ipod went to white screen with a sad face...WHAT HAPPENED!!?

    I kept my ipod in good condition and out of nowhere it stopped working. Now it goes to a white screen with a picture of a ipod with a sad face and under the ipod it gives a link to the support page. It goes strait to that screen when i turn my ipod on...if anyone knows plzzz help me out.

    this is hard drive failure, you may need to replace the hard drive, but if you ipod is still under warranty then send it in if you want.
    if you fix it on your own, ifixipodsfast.com has some video tutorials on hard drive replacement, and hard drives on ebay are.... cheap (can be pricey depending on size and condition)
