Why does my project look like this?

Hello to all. I am in the process of setting right my media...reorganizing my projects and events, deleting duplicates, deleting render files etc. I was puzzled to come across this appearance of one of the projects. FYI, I am using event manager to ensure that not more than one or two events/projects are presented to FCPX at any point of time. Here is this screenshot:
Usually if there is some problem with events not being available [the project looks red in color and some warning is given] I am accustomed to the warning icon at the starting place of the project. Clicking upon that icon brings up the inspector window and clicking the modify event references button at the bottom usually settles the issue.
When I ran the skimmer over the project, I was able to view the video and even hear the audio of this 'closed looking' project.
Right now I have done this: click upon relink project files. I was able to locate all the files and have pressed the relink button and the process of relinking is going ahead.
I dont know or understand what I am doing, but would like to know how this project has donned such an appearance as this one? Knowing this will help me to be more careful in future. Had I failed to locate the files, it could be that I would have lost the project.

Upon rebooting and opening the application, I got this:
The closed and blue colored appearance of the clipsremained unchanged. Placing the cursor upon the clip opens up that segment and the corresponding part of the project turns up in the viewer. Sound is also audible while skimming over the project.
The project plays in the project library:
While so playing, both audio is heard and the video is seen in the viewer, in a normal fashion. While the video is playing, that 'clip' is open in the project as seen at the cursor location in the shot above. But, when the video is stopped, the 'clip' in the project closes down and only the red skimmer is visible:
The project opens in the timeline and also plays normally as well:
Tom, I do not understand what all these 'abnormal' things mean. May I ask this : what is meant by consolidation of project media and can I click upon this option?

  • Why does my cmus look like this?

    It's in a screen session on Leopards terminal. It didn't do this before and I haven't updated anything and I'm confused. If I go to the cmus window, the rest of the screen windows look like that too and when I detach the term looks like that.
    hrm, it only does it when I do
    ssh -t me@foo 'screen -rd'
    if I just ssh then do screen it doesn't

    Supposed to be plain old english. Leopard terminal says it does UTF-8, but I'm pretty sure I removed all the foreign languages.
    The weird part now is that it only does it when I put screen in my ssh command. Let me bold that part. I can live with hitting up arrow every time I login from this computer.

  • Why does Java utility look like this - mac god required pls

    Where are my option tabs - this is driving me nutzoid

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by Find My Mac.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Why does my screen look like this

    Everything looks perfect to me!  What is it that increased?  Display?  If so, play around w/your resolution which is found in System Preferences>Displays>Display. 

  • Why does my media look like this?

    The media is a 16 gb image sequence turned into a .mov file by Quicktime Player 7. Doesn't work when I try to add it to my timeline or even play through Final Cut Pro. The .mov file plays fine through VLC. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help!

    Yep, file opens and plays in QT player (though a little laggy).

  • Why does my screen look like it has spots all over when it has not been in or near water?

    Has anyone else had this happen?  I have had my phone for about a month and today it looks like the phone has water spots all over the screen.  It hasn't gotten wet even accidentally from rain or anything.  Haven't had any, so I don't know why it would look like this.  Is there a way to get rid of this?  

    I just bought one and it had a sticker on it and it was impossible to remove, so I took it off and now there are spots all over.

  • Why does my text look like gibberish?

    Hello,

    Try going to Applications/Font Book and validate your fonts. It appears a system font may be corrupt.

  • Does your shield look like this?

    Anybody else's invisibleshield application look like this?
    http://img494.imageshack.us/img494/2528/podshield2sl.jpg
    It's been almost 36 hours since i put it on, yet the adhesive grains and haze which were supposed to disappear have not. anyone else go through this? i promise this is not dust or scratches below if that's what it appears to be.

    Brodie,
    I installed mine 24 hours ago, and mine came out perfect. I followed the instructions to the letter. I did re-install the front 5 times though! (Dust on two installs, alignment on others)
    Looks like it could have been due to two possible issues:
    1. Not enough soapy water on the sticky side of the shield during install. Was it soaked well, & were you able to slide it around when first applied?
    2. Not enough credit card squeegee action.
    I think it is number 1 though.
    Let us know your installation details, and if you had any difficulties

  • Why is my Page looking like this?

    I have essentially the same page uploaded and I have no idea why one is looking like it does and the other is fine. The one that is the DSMS Home is the one I need to look correct. The other one is a test of that page before I made it the homepage of my school!!

    Help!!!!

    On my machine it looks horrible (viewing in Firefox). The text is all over the place, an image that used to be on the page and I took it off is still on there. I checked the site on a different computer using IE and it looks good. I'm not sure why only on my machine it looks bad.

  • Why does the message "looks like spam or a virus" appear when sending a picture from my phone?

    Photos sent to the printer come up with a message saying it looks like spam or a virus. Photo printed ok first time, now gives that message in the jobs listing.  Emailed from an Android phone to an HP Photosmart 6510.

    The "spam/virus" message often occurs because the email did not contain any text in the subject line. Please try re-sending an email to your printer and adding text in the email's subject line.
    I want to be sure that the information provided has completely resolved the issue.  Please reply to this email and let me know whether or not the issue has been resolved.  If the issue persists, please include the following pieces of information so that I may assist you further:
    1. Are there any attachments being sent? If so, which attachment file type is being used (PDF or Word documents, JPG photos, etc)?
    2. Which email address/addresses are used to send ePrint emails?
    3. The results of a test email (success/fail) which will help isolate the source of the issue. Please follow the instructions below:
    a. Type the word "test" in the subject line
    b. Type the word "test" in the email body
    c. Do not include an email signature
    d. Do not include an email attachment (documents/photos/etc.)
    Please include the results of this test email in your reply.
    I hope the initial set of steps resolved the issue but look forward to providing you additional support if necessary.
    If I have SOLVED your issue, please feel free to provide KUDOS and make sure you mark this thread as SOLUTION PROVIDED!

  • Why does my Firefox look like the ollder versions? - your examples show a new look with the orange tab in the top left hand corner

    The examples shown for Firefox 4 and above show a browser with the orange Firefox tab on the top left corner.
    In my case, the browser continues to look - and operate like the older versions.

    Go to View (or just right-click on any empty space of Firefox's panels - for example, near the tabs) and turn off the Main Menu Panel. You'll see what you're looking for.

  • Why does my terminal prompt look like this?

    Today I noticed that my Terminal prompt now looks like this:
    *pranaymishra:~ tbarth$*
    Any idea how that happened? There's nothing in the .profile that does this.
    -Travis

    The computer name is 'Travis', and always has been.
    Hmmm...
    Further investigating shows a computer by that name on the network with a different IP address. The DHCP server shows my IP address as associated with my computer name, 'Travis'.
    So could this be an OS X network error where it's picking up the computer name from something like WINS or DNS and not updating it if the IP lease changes? And if so, why does it not simply use the given name specified by the user instead?
    As far as the network is concerned, my computer name is 'Travis', as it should be.
    -Travis
    EDIT: BTW, 'Use dynamic global host name' is not enabled.

    Why does my site look nothing like the design and during testing once uploaded to the server?,

  • Why is my calendar look like a blank book?

    Why is my calendar look like a blank book?  The calendar format is not showing up just a blank book?

    Quit the calendar app and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can try this as well if quitting the app does not work.
    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.
