Additional Information

We apologize that we were unable to address this issue within the current product support cycle. If the issue continues to affect your work in a supported release, please contact Technical Support. Note that ArcGIS 10.8.2 is the current release of ArcGIS Desktop and will enter Mature Support in March 2024 (https://support.esri.com/en-us/products/arcmap/life-cycle). There are no plans to release an ArcGIS Desktop 10.9, and we recommend that you migrate to ArcGIS Pro. See Migrate from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro (https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-pro/resources/migrate) for more information.

Workaround

Open the layer properties of the .tif file after adding to Table Of Contents (Right click > Properties).
In the Symbology tab, select Classified (Stretched is set by default).
Click OK on the message "Unique histogram is not available. You can import class breaks from another layer."
Two symbols appear showing Range Symbol Black for Range 0 and White for 0-1.
Click Apply.
Continue with the Georeferencing and then the Update Georeferencing. The black screen issue is no longer seen.
Alternative workaround is to export the .tif image to a .jpg file.
