Gray screen when playing a purchased movie

On my late 2009 iMac with latest OS X when I try to play a movie or TV show, I bought it opens on a gray screen and that's all I get. No sound, no control, the only thing I can do is press ESC to exit the player. I can read movies who did not buy through iTunes.

I tried to reboot, reset PRAM, signing out and my apple account. Any ideas?

Once when playing adventures with the kinect, all entered colors automatically, but it has not changed and when to use again another day it was back to the purple and green screen.  Not happy at all, the console was very expensive and should work fine.

  • How to block all the videos and ads on all the site as how it is when it shows the gray screen when the flash player needs to be updated

    Hi there please help me. I didn't have this problem until two days ago when the browser updated itself. I have the youtube video downloader add on and always use it. I'm on a data plan and it used to block videos and add ads which I like, but now is not because of the update, I came back to the old version, but it did not help and I downloaded the flash but block it does not work. It makes the slow loading of pages and uses a large amount of data that I tried many things like all the plugins of switching to add it on the menu to activate ever and it doesn't quite work. Before it used to show the gray screen, where it says "the flash player is out of date" on videos and commercials, but he does not do this because of the update so please help me to do it again.

    I solved. On the firefox support page they will give you information about the HTML5 player and they say there that firefox uses it only 38 version before so I'm 36 version and it worked in blocking it as before.

    So its all sort and if everyone wants to do the same thing go to https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ and all previous versions will be there.

  • How can I get a full screen when playing scrabble

    I CAN'T GET A FULL SCREEN WHEN I'M PLAYING ONLINE SCRABBLE, IVE ALTERS SCREEN RESOLUTIIN TRIED SEVERAL TIMES

    Hello

    -What operating system is installed on your computer?
    -What web browser do you use to play scrabble online?
    -Did you contact the Web site administrator?
    -Have you been able to play the game in full screen earlier?

    The game can be designed to play on the small screen. I suggest you to contact the site administrator to check if this is the case.

    If you were able to play in full screen mode earlier, update your graphics card driver and check if that helps.

  • 0 x 000000 x 20 blue screen when running Netflix instant movies.

    When running Netflix instant movies, I got a blue screen with stop 0 error message 00000020 x. I think that Microsoft Silverlight (download again and I have removed him) is the problem. Anyone experienced this? This happened while watching a TV show produced BBC (immediate download could be the problem too, I had looked at a night at the movies before without any problem.) I am running an Inspiron 6000 Windows XP

    Information about your system seems good.

    Notice in the video section, the 'not available' items.  This means that XP is not get it for some reason any.

    Your report ASB is a bit biased (does not resemble my example, but that's OK).   Usually, I doubt the implications of oriented XP files and that you have some Intel video driver oriented files listed.

    Go to the Dell page for your system and get the latest video drivers for Intel (r) video 915GM and then upgrade your system or download the drivers and reinstall them right anyway to make sure they are right.  Keep track of this thread, and what you send as a picture 'before' the situation of the video driver.

    http://support.Dell.com/support/downloads/DriversList.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=Gen&SystemID=INS_PNT_6000&OS=WW1&OSL=en

    I looked on the Intel page to see what that drivers that they have and they have only Windows 7 drivers (for your video chip).

    I'll post the instructions for to make you a bootable CD from the Console of the Recovery XP (no XP media required) and you can put it with your CD for another day.

    Your S.M.A.R.T. errors seem dark, but could be drivers.  If some things said S.M.A.R.T. failure is eminent, I would tend to believe.

    If this system is to give you a few BSOD, you can run the view blue screen on that one too and maybe get more information.  VSO can help you to get more information and to search for a model in the BSOD reports.

    I don't know of a way to try to bypass these types of errors and would start to find how to replace the suspect disk and then turn the suspect disk in a slave drive, keeping in mind that it will probably fail completely a day (do not let it be a surprise!).

    You can learn more about S.M.A.R.T here:

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    1 copy the file to another location(for eg desktop)

    2. then make the necessary changes, then save the file

  • My Acrobat XI shows a white, gray screen when opening files, analysed, although the player will display the files correctly.

    Adobe Reader is able to display documents correctly, but not Acrobat XI. I've updated the Flash Player. I turned the "large images" function in the preferences. I've updated to Acrobat. The screen always gray and white. Help, please.

    In addition, I recommend you check your preferences in Acrobat.

    Go in Edition > Preferences > Page display > "Page content and information" and don't forget that "Show large images" is checked.

  • gray screen with the pointer to the login screen

    Sometimes when I boot my iMac 11.2 I have a gray screen when I only have my mouse pointer.

    If I click where my user picture should be and then type my password I can log in, if I want my power button down for one second until the display sleeps and press a second time to wake up all displays as it should.

    It started after the upgrade to yosemite to el capitan, I did an MSC and pram reset as a co-worker suggested and it helped for a little while, but according to apple, I need to update my firmware, so I checked the page on EFI and SMC firmware downloaded iMac (21.5 inch, mid-2010) iMac11 2 IM112.0057.03B (2015-002) and it wouldn't let me install it because it is the mavericks... I currently have Boot ROM Version: IM112.0057.B03.

    do I expect that apple updated the page?

    I have the same problem with getting the security patch to block a malicious terminal command can not install it because it is intended for an operating system more low version x.

    From time to time on a power off boot, I see the same behavior with El Capitan (10.11.2) on an iMac of 17.1%.

    Turning the power on and turn it on again it hardens immediately.

    Hi OfeliaJohnson

     

    1 during how long have you had this problem?
    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?


    Method 1 :
    You can check if you are able to start properly in safe mode. In safe mode; you have access to only the drivers and base files. Check out the link to start the computer in safe mode and then check-
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode


    Method 2:

    You can check if you can use the last known good configuration. It's a Windows startup option that uses the most recent system settings that worked correctly. Whenever you turn your computer off and Windows shuts properly, important system settings are saved in the registry. Then it starts Windows with the last configuration of registry and the pilot who has worked successfully.

    Please refer to the below links to get help on the issue.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/using-last-known-good-configuration

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode


    Method 3:

    If the problem persists you can perform a restore of the system to a previous point, when the issue was not present. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem.

    Note: When you use System restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To do this, there must be a restore point from the system in which the connection was successful.

    Please refer to the below of the help links on performing a system restore.
