All My Files not displaying all file types

So, as above, in Finder using the default display by file type, the only results I see are for Spreadsheets, Developer and Documents.
No seperate lists for PDFs, Images or any other file type.
Looked in preferences but can't seem to see any place where this might be enabled.
Glum...

Here's another data point:  I found some PDFs under my Documents folder that weren't showing up in AMF.  I found that simply opening one up in Acrobat Reader would cause it to show up in AMF (I didn't have to change and re-save the PDF). 
I did notice that if I selected multiple PDFs at once and opened them all at the same time, some of them would then appear in AMF, while others wouldn't.  But opening up a single PDF by itself would always add it to the files shown in AMF (as long as the PDF was somewhere under my User folder - if I first copied the PDF to a second hard drive that's not under my User folder and *then* opened it, it still wouldn't show up in AMF.)
In short, here's what I've discovered so far:
1)  AMF doesn't seem to index anything that's not somewhere under my User folder.
2)  Not everything under my User folder shows up in AMF, but if I open a "missing" file that's under my User folder, it will then show up in AMF. (Except for pictures and songs - see #3)
3)  AMF doesn't index anything that's in my iPhoto or iTunes libraries (even after opening a picture in iPhoto or playing a song in iTunes.)
4)  AMF doesn't index attachments to Mail messages unless you download the attachment (presumably because it's then stored under your User folder.)
5) AMF will only seem to (sometimes) index Excel spreadsheets if they're saved as .xlsx files.  Even opening, changing and saving a .xls file won't get it to show up in AMF afterward.  Spreadsheets are strange, in fact.  Even with some .xlsx files, they'll show up in AMF *while I have them open in Excel*, but as soon as I close them in Excel, they disappear from AMF again.  This is the only types of file I've seen disappear from AMF after they've shown up once - all the other file types seem to stay in AMF once you can get them to show up there.

  • QuickWatch windows does not display Value and Type.

    Hi ranjanks,
    Could you share us a sample? So we could debug the same app in our side, please also tell us the VS version in your side.
    For example, just a simple console app with a variable "int i", I could get it in my VS2013 version like the following screen shot. So if you debug a simple sample as mine, how about the result? If it works well, I doubt that it would be related
    to the specific variable of your app.

  • Not display a workitem type in UWL in portal

    Hi to all.
    I need that a type of workitem (TS.........) doesn't display in Portal inbox and display in SAP inbox.
    Now these workitems display in SAP inbox and in Portal inbox (UWL).
    Can anybody helps me?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Kata,
    Sorry, my bad ....The SupportedItemTypes which infact is available under uwl.standard. Also I would suggest you go through chapter 4 of the attached document which would help you achieve the desired results.[http://www.erpgenie.com/sap/netweaver/ep/Configuring%20the%20UWL.pdf]
    The solution is as follows: Find the 'View' name in which the other items are displayed. You can find that by looking up for the defaultView attribute(usually the value is DefaultView unless you have changed it) in the ItemType tag. In the uwl.standard file under the DefaultView definition(View name="DefaultView"), you would find the SupportedItemTypes tag which would have a value like 'uwl.task'. This property indicates the itemtypes to be displayed in the DefaultView. The value 'uwl.task' is the superset of all the task nos. For filtering the values in the DefaultView, the value under the SupportedItemTypes should be more specific like 'uwl.task.webflow.TS01000096.<systemalias>,uwl.task.webflow.TS01000099.<systemalias>'. So, you need to specifically include all the task items which should show up in the DefaultView and not include the ones which you do not intend to show.
    Here I have explained everything wrt to 'DefaultView' but the defaultView value in the ItemTypes definition in your case might be different. Also, the uwl cache is the culprit in most cases, so keep clearing it.
    Alternatively you can also try setting up a new view definition altogether and include the filtered items in that View. The steps for that are provided in the uwl document attached.
    Hopefully your problem will be resolved now...

  • Transaction SMOEAC does not display Object type and Object Name options.

    Dear all,
    When I go to transaction SMOEAC system does not display fields Object type and Object Name option instead displays an empty frame allowing only to create new objects.
    System does not allow and display existing objects to edit.
    Most imp with the same ID, I am able to see the existing objects and two fields "Object type" and "Object Name" on different machine. So there is no authorization issue.
    My SAP GUI version where these fields are not visible is 640 Final Release with 6405.5.18.1016 version and Patch level 18.
    My SAP GUI version here these fields are visible is 640 Final Release with 6404.4.14.1012 version and Patch Level 14.
    Any idea what could be the reason?

  • New computer ff install not listing all file types under tools-options-applications

    New windows installation on another with the same version of ff (10.0.2). Clicking local .pls files in this machine gives option to launch VLC media player but on other computer just text appears.
    The extension appears in the applications tab after clicking tools and options on this computer, but the list is far shorter on the other machine and does not include this extension. Is this rectified by installing a plugin? If so which one?

    The issue isn't that VLC isn't playing the files- it is... but linking to the files saved on my system does not launch VLC from Firefox on the other computer like it does on this one. I've actually been able to add to the applications list. Technically I can run the same apps and associations on both machines except that Firefox isn't handling the ".pls" files at all with the other machine
    I've saved a directory structure with .pls files to different streaming radio stations and the directory is linked to from Firefox on both computers... identical directories and files stored. When I bring up one of the folders in this machine and click on the file, I first get the same dialog as you attached- I launch VLC by selecting "Open with" then clicking OK. The radio station plays. I've set it to change stations when I click within the iframe without having to go to VLC and use the open media feature- it does the trick with a single click from Firefox,
    The other machine when I click the file the iframe in which the directory was displayed shows text information (urls and other arcane digital nonsense) as though the file were a text file. Both machines have similar installations.... I do not want to overload on the other machine- it's my communications backup but I would like this arrangement to work as it does on this computer.
    Again, the biggest hint I see is the absence of the ".pls" file type in the list under the "applications" tab after clicking "Tools"-"Options" in Firefox on the machine in question.
    Can something be done either by transplanting missing files from one machine to the next or from about:config to induce the desirable result from the other machine in Firefox?

  • Podcast app not displaying all synced files

    One of my feeds is displaying only one file, even if multiple files are synced. I'm trying to play "This American Life," where I have downloaded the files manually and I import them into iTunes and convert them to a Podcast type. Then, I sync them to my iPhone 4.
    What's happening is that I'll have one file displayed, e.g., "511" but none other. In iTunes, however, I have synced many files: 511, 510, 509, and so on. However, they are not displayed in the podcast app. However, when I search for the files in ios, they appear searchable, but clicking on them only opens the podcast app to This American Life where there is only one file displayed.
    So far I've resynced podcasts many, many times. I've uninstalled the app from both the iPhone and iTunes, selected "Do not sync podcasts" and then reinstalled everything and attempted to only sync one file at a time. I've restarted my phone multiple times and I've updated to 7.0.4, all of which have no effect.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    FYI, there's another thread going on this issue:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/23501372#23501372
    No final solutions have been discovered yet by the end users.  Lotsa frustration out there!

  • When I open a pdf in Adobe Acrobat xi pro it is not displaying correctly. If a file is all black with orange writing, I will see only the orange writing. Its not until i print it or open crop pages dialog box that i see the background. i am on a Windows 7

    When I open a pdf in Adobe Acrobat xi pro it is not displaying correctly. If a file is all black with orange writing, I will see only the orange writing. Its not until i print it or open crop pages dialog box that i see the background.
    i am on a Windows 7 professional PC, 64-bit.

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

  • DWMX Not Displaying All Files

    Hello folks. This is my last attempt to locate a solution for
    why my DWMX is not displaying all my files in my local or remote
    folder. I have a new client who has put us in charge of moving
    their site to a new server. When I create a new site in DWMX, it
    allows me to download and upload just fine, ALL of the site.
    Problem is, DWMX will only display a certain number of files in
    both the local and remote views. In my windows explorer, it shows
    all the files, on the new server it shows all the files, but DWMX
    will not. The folder in question is the dumping ground for all
    their self-managed content images for their site. So it is hard to
    split these up into multiple folders and expect the code to work
    properly.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, is there a
    solution to this problem with DWMX?
    Thank you.

    Are you using DMX6.0 or DMX6.1? If the former, please update
    to the latter
    at your earliest opportunity - use the updater on the Adobe
    site, please.

  • .swf files not displaying all of a sudden!

    Hi all
    currently working on a new website for my design company and
    have hit an unexpected - and very annoying - problem!
    my portfolio graphics are all vector illustrations - I export
    them from there as a .swf file - dump them into dreamweaver - and
    away we go. all has been going fine - my portfolio covers 4 pages -
    first two have worked fine - the final two simply will not display
    when previewed in browser - or uploaded via ftp to a site area.
    the graphics have all been created in similar ways - the
    export functions for .swf have not been altered in any way at all -
    but still not displaying. when i open up flash player to preview
    the file - again blank - when i do the same with the first two .swf
    files, no issues!!
    I have recreated the html files to see if that was the issue
    ... to no avail.
    I also dumped the swfs into the 2 html files that are working
    fine - still no luck.
    tis driving me mad - any ideas guys??? as i said - they are
    just vector logos as with the first two pages so not sure what on
    earth is happening!
    incase this helps with any ideas....
    this page as you can see works fine:

  • In Mac OS X Yosemite, Finder / Favorites / All My Files, "Today" files are not displayed.

    After upgrading MacBook Pro to OS X Yosemite, "Today" files are not displayed in Finder / Favorites / All My Files.  It worked prior to the upgrade.

    After further investigation, it is not the displaying of "Today" files that is the issue.  It appears that Finder / Favorites / All My Files is not correctly finding & displaying files when using the View / Arrange By / Date Last Opened criteria.  If I switch the criteria to / Date Modified, it finds & displays the file correctly.  See attached screen shots.  (It is possible that this problem existed before Yosemite, as I don't recall which criteria Finder was using before the upgrade.)

  • Finder not displaying all files in remote directory

    Sorry, this is a repost as I have gotten no response from my original request here: Finder not displaying all files in remote directory
    I've exported pictures from iPhoto on my iMac to a shared directory on my mac mini. When I access that directory from my iMac, I can see some but not all of the pictures. I know the pictures exported properly because I can see them all from the mac mini. I can open up a terminal window on my iMac and see all of the files; I can also open those files from the terminal.
    I'm running OSX 10.9.4 on both computers, with the mac mini also running OSX Server. I've placed a screen grab below from my iMac of what Finder sees vs what I can see from the terminal.
    Why isn't Finder displaying all of my files?

    thanks for responding
    Adding a new file to the shared folder results in me being able to see the new file from my clients regardless of where it was added from, however the "hidden" files do not suddenly pop up.
    I tried a few more experiments that had interesting results, but still didn't lead me to an answer.
    First I tried copying the files from the remote directory to a local directory; I did this in 2 different ways and had different results. Method A) I copied files from the mounted share to a local dir: "cp /Volumes/MyShare/dir/*.JPG .". Method B) I copied the files using secure copy: "scp user@server:/path/to/dir/*.JPG .".
    Method A resulted in Finder not being able to see the files in the local directory, while Method B did. This was interesting and lead me to suspect an issue with the way I am sharing the directory on the server. From Server settings I have both afp and smb checked. I tried enabling only one or the other and reconnecting; but this did not fix the problem.
    Next I tried exporting the photos from iPhoto again. Exporting them locally results in files that Finder can see. Exporting them to my server results the same bad behavior
    Getting desperate, I also tried renaming all of the files from "*.JPG" to "*.jpg" but this didn't help.
    One last experiment, I see the same behavior from both another Mac and a PC on my local network... FTP works fine.
    Any more ideas?

    It sounds like your file associations are messed up and Reader is trying to open your .jpg files. Is this correct?
    If so, you just need to change the associations to choose what application opens them. Here's how: Change File Associations in Mac OS X
