Why does slideshow created in Elements v12 display black

A slideshow created in PSE v11 plays back correctly on my Windows 8 computer, but running a slideshow in PSE v12 on the same computer in the same session displays the slides as black. There was a suggestion that the photos are at too high a resolution to playback, but I am using the same photos. I even created a slideshow with only three images that were about 1 meg in size each -- same problem.  There is no error message and the audio does play.
I imported into the Organizer (PSE 12) three different video formats: wmv, mp4, and m2ts. All three played correctly. It is the slideshow created with PSE that displays black.  What needs to be updated? What steps can I do to correct the problem?

I think the difficulty is that because it doesn't affect everyone they can't recreate it and so can't fix it*. If you want to report it the place to report bugs is at http://feedback.photoshop.com (this is a user-to-user forum so Adobe won't see it).
* Mind you with a release cycle of only twelve months it's very rare to see any updates other than to Camera RAW.

  • Why does ID create a CSS when option is not selected in export to ePub?

    I am using InDesign 6 to create ePub books. I want to use my own CSS so in the Export to ePub options I am leaving the setting "Include Style definitions" unchecked. I then list my CSS under additional CSS. When I create the ePub and then examine the files included I see that there are 2 CSSs, mine and one created by InDesign. Why does InDesign create a CSS when the "Inlcude Sytle definitions" is left unchecked?

    Because that is the way that CS6 exported EPUB.
    EPUB is a fast moving target and has moved way beyond what CS6 can export. With each update from InDesign CS6 to InDesign CC to InDesign CC 2014, and even to the latest update to CC in October, there have been major changes to how InDesign exports EPUB. It no longer does it that way, and you have much more control over the process in InDesign CC.
    Because InDesign CS6 is never going to change, it's best to work at modifying what they do export, unless you want to upgrade to InDesign CC.

  • Why does Group created on Master console does not show any device count mapped on the managed Amp?

    Q: Why does Group created on Master console does not show any device count mapped on the managed Amp?
    A: When a group is created on master console it will be pushed to all the managed amp which is added with Manage group configuration enabled. The Group pushed to the managed amp will be created as Global group and you can create subscriber groups for the global group to which you will add the device into since we cannot add any devices into global group directly.
    Hence there is no device added to the global group, on the master console it does not show any device count for the groups that are created on master console.

  • Why does Birthday without Year in iContacts Display Age in iCalendar?

    I enter Birthdays - without year - in iCloud contacts. Then PC's (Windows 7) iCloud calendar displays "Jane Doe's 5th"  or "Jane Doe's 11th" birthday. Huh? How/Why does this happen and how can it be eliminated?

    Thanks, but inconsistencies with the reply.
    1. Started using iCloud contacts and calendar only in last two months so only entered contacts then too.
    2. Started with Outlook 2010 in August 2011.
    3. Why would it show ANY age with such new data?
    Would appreciate additional ideas please.

  • Why does InDesign create widows when you split a paragraph?

    Take a look at the two screen grabs. In this first one the price £48.25 fits at the end of the fourth line.
    But I want to split the paragraph at that point. Look what happens when I do:
    Why does it do that? As you see from the first example, the type will fit happily on the line above with the same hyphenation and justification settings. Why should splitting the paragraph make a difference?
    This feature enrages every production journalist on my UK national newspaper every working day of our lives. We don't like to put minus tracking on text and the only other way I know to counteract this effect is to reduce the word space values in the justification settings for the affected paragraph (we're working in Single Line Composer, by the way – Paragraph Composer makes it even worse). Sometimes even that doesn't work without everything looking too squished. If we can't edit the text to solve the issue (and why should we if we're otherwise happy with it?) then we have to construct a fake new paragraph using fixed spaces for the indent and baseline shift to create the 1pt space we insert between pars.
    The font in this example is Corporate E Bold, in case that has any bearing.
    Is there any other way round this, some mystical unknown setting that turns it off? If not, was it ever fixed in later versions of InDesign? My company uses CS3 and is not likely to update it for many years.
    Thanks

    Because it uses paragraph composing to adjust for the best possible spacing within a line calculated on other lines here is how it works there are two types
    Adobe Single Line Composer
    and
    Adobe Paragraph Composer
    Paragraph composer is the default - and here's the rules on how both work:
    Adobe Single-Line Composer.
    Some programs use single-line composition to flow text. It goes line by line through a paragraph and sets each line as well as possible using the  hyphenation & justification settings. When you modify the spacing of one line then the lines above and below that are not taken into consideration. If you adjust the space within a line it can cause poor spacing on the next line, which as they say in the business - tough luck.
    When you use Adobe Single-Line Composer, the following rules apply:
    Adjusting word spacing is preferred over hyphenation.
    Hyphenation is preferred over glyph spacing.
    If spacing must be adjusted, removing a space is preferred over adding a space.
    Adobe Paragraph Composer
    Adobe Paragraph Composer (which was called the Multi-Line Composer in previous versions) is turned on by default. It takes a broader approach to composition by taking the entire paragraph compoistion in one go. If you have a poorly spaced line it can be fixed by adjusting the spacing in the previous lines, so that the Paragraph Composer reflows the previous line.
    The Paragraph Composer is has the following rules:
    The evenness of letter spacing and word spacing is the given the highest priority. The possible breakpoints is determined by how much they cause word and letter spacing to vary from the desired settings.
    Uneven spacing is preferred to hyphenation. A breakpoint that does not need a hyphenation is preferred over one that does.
    All possible breakpoints are ranked, and good breakpoints are preferred over bad ones.
    The paragraph composer is more sophisticated than the single-line option, offering generally better overall spacing because it sacrifices optimal spacing a bit on one line to prevent really bad spacing on another, something the single-line method does not do.
    There is one frustration in dealing with the paragraph composer: When you try to edit text or play with tracking to get rid of an orphan or widow, the paragraph composer keeps adjusting the text across several lines, often counteracting your nips and tucks. The single-line composer doesn’t do that.

  • Why does "Date Created" sometimes show dashes instead of a date?

    My finder shows four dashes ("----") for the "date created" on a large percentage of my files. When I look at the properties of those files, there are "Created" dates on them. Some of the files are .PDF, some are .doc (I haven't checked for .xls or .txt files). Why does this happen, and what can I do to fix it so the "date created" is in the finder window?
    Thanks!

    Perhaps that information isn't in the file. It may have been lost through various copy events on machines that did not recognize the information or where the information was lost during transfers to and from Windows or Linus servers.

  • HT204150 Why does iCal show incorrect age when displaying birthdays derived from Addressbook

    Why does iCal display incorrect ages derived from AddressBook entered birthdays?

    Hi PeterWCM, for what it's worth, the Apple help desk in Oz reckons we've uncovered a tech glitch in the software and that they replicated the described faults! But it only happens between specific dates (sometime in early Nov 1974, and runs through to today!)i.e; dates before Nov '74 aren't affected and some dates since!
    We "trouble shooted" by inserting (made-up) dates in Addressbook and then watching when iCal updated. By a process of trila and error we nailed down the start of the problem to 2nd Nov '74!
    Anyhow, they seemed to think there would be a "patch" issued in Jan...?
    It MAY still be linked to timezone probs...not really sure!
    Please let me know if you find a solution?
    Cheers!

  • Why does Firefox create so many temp files in cache? Once it filled up entire free HD space (46GB)?

    Every now & then, Firefox will have created zillions of directories and files in Cache within the directory for a Firefox profile. The directories are called 0 (zero) through F (using the hex numbers as names, i.e.g), and within each of these will be more directories (with two digit hex names). The last time this happened (1 week ago), these directories ate up ALL of my free hard drive space (about 46 GB worth).
    Why does this happen? Can I stop it from happening? If so, how?
    THanks.

    Yes it should be easy to reset.
    It may be set from
    * '''Options -> | Advanced | -> |Network| -> Cached Web Content''' <br /> [] Override automatic cache management
    * see [[#w_cached-web-content]]'''_cached-web-content'''
    Presumably your automatic setting has been overridden and the box needs unchecking.
    I know Firefox does split the cache up like that IIRC it allows the cache to be faster and solves fragmentation issues.
    46GB That seems a surprising amount and can not be right if it eats up all hard disk space. I also know that the file places.sqlite is a variable size, but that is based on the system in use.
    The ordinary HTTP cache is also set presumably intelligently, but can be over-ridden by the user
    This has some background info
    * https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTTP_Caching_FAQ
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.disk.capacity
    My own settings as viewed in about:support are
    browser.cache.disk.capacity 358400
    browser.cache.disk.smart_size_cached_value 266240
    browser.cache.disk.smart_size.first_run false
    My cache use is limited to about 350MB

  • Why does iTunes create disk errors when deleting movie files?

    I use a Macbook Pro, OSX 10.7.5. When I delete movie file from my iTunes library I get disk errors. I need to option boot select the recovery disk and repair the disk.  Deleting a movie file I have placed on my desktop with finder does not create any errors.  Most of the movie files are created as .m4v movies. They all play just fine with my Apple TV. I have tried turning off the Apple TV and rebooting before I delee files but nothing seems to work.
    Any ideas?
    Lance

    If you let iTunes organise your media folders then that is the way it is. An option would be to change the Media Kind to TV Show which would gather them togther in one folder, but in a different part of the library.

  • Why does my MacBookPro 10.5 suddenly display B&W diagonal lines?

    My MacBookPro 10.5 displays black and white or yellow and white diagonal blocks when

    software updates and have changed no settings. I did sync the MacBook to my iphone 3GS two days ago which has never caused issues in the past. Could this possibly be a virus??

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Does your Mac have the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics chip? If so, you might have this problem:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
    If you have access to an Apple Store, there is a specific test they can run to diagnose this problem. If it turns out to be the NVIDIA problem, the repair will be done at no cost to you.
