Adobe Illustrator CS5 does not show PDF thumbnails when browsing

When I am browsing through PDF files to open one of them in Adobe Illustrator CS5 it does not show the thumbnail.  When I am browsing in Adobe Acrobat it does show the thumbnails.  If I have Adobe Acrobat open and am browsing through files and the thumbnails are showing then if I open Adobe Illustrator and browse for a file the thumbnail does show up. 
How can I get Illustrator to always show the PDF thumbnails.  I have to frequently browse through thousands of PDF files and it is imperative that I can see the thumbnail for these PDF files.  I primarily use Illustrator to edit PDF files.
The computer is Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit edition.  Thumbnails barely work when browsing files through Explorer.  Some thumbnails will show, but not very many of them and it is extremely slow to load the thumbnails that will display.

Bob,
So I am assuming you are talking about viewing the files using this method first:
To use the 32-bit version of Windows Explorer, follow these steps:
Click Start, click Run, type the following in the Open box, and then click OK:
Drive_Letter:\windows\syswow64\explorer.exe /separate
Note The placeholder Drive_Letter represents the drive where the x64-based version of Windows is installed.
Please let me know if I am missing what you are saying here.

  • My iPod does not show all tracks when browsing by artist!

    I have recently noticed how by iPod isnt showing all the songs when browsing by artist. I have only discovered this problem with one of my artist, but am not sure that the problem occurs elsewhere. The thing is that i have got around 20 tracks performed by this one artist. About 10 of these tracks are from the same album and the rest of the tracks are without album information. So everytime i enter this artist on my iPod, only the tracks from this album is shown. Hence, the tracks without any album details are not to be found under this artist! However, these songs can stil be found when browsing by genre, songs or the like. So obviously they are all on my iPod, but for some reason only the tracks from the mentioned album are to be found when entering the artist.
    What can the problem be and how can it be fixed?
    Thanks for your help,
    Best regards...

    There are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song has no album name associated with it or 2) the song is marked as part of a compilation.
    If tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances but the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous to all the blanks in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod
    Also if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they may not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder.

  • My Adobe ID account does not show my purchased products

    When I log into my Adobe ID, it does not show that I have purchased Photoshop CS5, when I indeed did. How do I change this?

    Been awhile since I bought a product, but as I remember it there was a box that asked "do you want to register now or later".  You have to choose yes and then fill in the blanks with your name, address, e-mail and whatever.  It does not to this automatically.

    Make sure you register the software with Adobe.  If you did not purchase it thru Adobe they will not have a record of the purchase in your account.

  • Itunes store does not show on ipad when i launch app its pages are blank

    itunes store does not show on ipad when i launch app its pages are blank

    This indicates there might be an issue with the time configuration on the device.
    Go to Settings > General > Date and time. See if Set automatically is switched to on. If so, switch to off and ensure you set date, time and time zone manually and correctly.
    Power off the device (hold sleep button for four seconds, then slide to power off), then power back on.
    If issue persists, switch Set automatically back to on, and if not resolved then restore the device.

    Hi all.  I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues.  Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
    But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem.  …without even a re-boot.
    Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
    Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive.  Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab.  Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
    Open the Users folder.
    Open your user folder
    Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
    Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
    Open the Installer Cache folder
    In Details view sort on Name
    Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
    Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
    When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco.  The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”.  Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
    I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
    For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear.  Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
    Good luck…

  • I have downloaded latest itunes but my ipad does not show in devices when I try to sync.  Any suggestions?

    I have just gotten my new ipad!!!  I downloaded latest version of itunes but my ipad does not show in devices when I try to sync music.  Any suggestions??

    Does a little box come up seeing the iPad as a camera? That doesn't impact iTunes as much as it confirms that your computer sees the device. If your computer doesn't see it then iTunes doesn't know it's there.
    If you're plugged into a hub or extender, try plugging it directly into the box or main part of your computer.
    If you're using an extension, stop and just use the included sync cable.
    Try using a different USB port.
    After you installed iTunes, did you restart your computer?
    Usually what's needed is the 'apple device driver' which installs automatically, you just need to sometimes trigger the install, using different ports helps with that.
    If the simple trouble shooting doesn't help then you can search on the Apple Device Driver and there's more detailed trouble shooting on the site.

    :-) the problem is solved. Thanks to a great typ in one of the other discussions with alt+cmd+S iTunes looks again like something I recognize. After removing the iPod from iMac and also from the connecting "holder", turning it on ad off, rebooting the iMac, maggic happens and the iPod now shows in iTunes and everything works just fine.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud does not show all my apps as registered.

    Adobe Creative Cloud properly shows my Adobe Photoshop CS6 as registered.  However, it does not show my Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, or my Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.4 as registered.  How can I get these programs to be properly registerd as "MY APPS" in Adobe Creative Cloud?  I am running Windows 8 and have had photoshop for a number of years. I installed Acrobat XI Pro in December, but it has never been recognized in Adobe Creative Cloud as registered.

    Hey Pete,
    I'm not sure why Acrobat XI is not recognized. It is on my system. Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling it.
    You can uninstall through the OS
    Control Panel > Programs & Features
    and then reinstall it through the Creative Cloud app or https://creative.adobe.com/products
