I have been to 2 systems with black holes. I can never locate them inside the system. I have scanned, looked around manually for so long I have been attacked by pirates few times while looking. I can't find them. I know they exist, but no idea what you do to locate them.
Have you been to an anomoly? The big red and black thing in space that looks like a Space Station? Go in there and an alien will give you co-ordinates.

Big deal, been there twice. It makes no difference if i can't find, or it's not really in the system.

When I get to a star system that has a black hole (been through 3 of them), I drop out of warp directly in front of the black hole opening. It easily fills up my entire view port and I cannot miss it. All that is required is to jet through the opening. I was pretty sure that's how it is for other players.

Well you`re doing something wrong. I`ve noticed with your posts that you`re very impatient and quite rude when you get stuck. I believe you`re your own problem. Ease off on the rudeness and we might actually help you more.

For now, you`re on your own.

Ok, trying not be rude, but in order for me drop out of warp in front of the black hole, I need to find it. That may sound rude but i don't know how else to put it.

So here is problem: I go to system "marked" as having a black hole. Once in the system I find only planets and other normal stuff. I do not find a black hole. Is there some trick to it that I am missing.

I think that's where our experiences have diverged:
1. Once you find in the galactic map a star system that has a black hole, that's all that's needed to 'find.'
2. You target that star system and then warp there.
3. You will drop out of warp directly in front of the black hole, and you won't need to do anything special to 'see' the black hole.

My only guess at your situation is that you didn't actually warp to a star system that has a black hole.

In your galactic map, how are you determining the target star system has a black hole? You should see either:
1. Free exploration mode, anomaly detected, spiral icon.
2. If asked, Nada will give you waypoints to a nearby hole.
3. After finishing the Atlas storyline, you will see stars framed in grey triangles that have black holes.

I've taken the above liberally from http://www.polygon.com/no-mans-sky/2016/8/20/12535004/black-hole-guide if you want to review that.

Ok, that clears up a lot, now I can quit looking for them once inside the system. I wonder what's going wrong, the systems are marked as having a black hole. The game for some reason just is not going to let me do it. I am getting tired of this game and it's BS inconsistencies. Been thinking of just uninstalling it. According to the game I have discovered no plant life, and now I find out black holes. They are clearly marked on the Galactic Map, but in my case, do to the BS inconsistencies of the game they don't exist for me. F this game.
