CS5 Bridge thumbnail previews suddenly stopped working

My Bridge very suddenly stopped displaying thumbnail previews - it only displays the default file type icon.
I have spent a lot of time googling this and have tried the following:
Clearing the cache
Updating Bridge and assorted Abode Products
Resetting Bridge to factory settings
Nothing has made any difference. I need the thumbnail previews for Bridge to be useful to me. Any help is highly appreciated.
I'm running CS5 on OSX Mavericks (10.9.1). Thanks!

Every file type (DNG, JPG, CR2, etc) except for PSD, but PSD looks distorted. It's all images, old and new, including ones I could preview perfectly before whatever happened happened. Thanks for responding!
Edit: Okay, so I did more digging and for some reason it shows TIF files, but nothing else.
Also, I am trying to view our photo library over our network, none of these files are on my local HD.

Video previews suddenly stopped working in Lightroom 3.6

Hey folks!
I'm using Lightroom 3.6, and although it has limited video support, it is good enough for my workflow. It recognizes all of the video types that I deal with...SLR, point-and-shoot, and cell phone camera...and imports them and lets me keep my data organized.
In the last few weeks, though, Lightroom has stopped generating previews for my videos. Previously in Grid View, it would eventually make a preview for all of my video types, include a duration indicator, and give me a button to play the video in an external viewer. Now, all of my videos show up as blank gray boxes with only the film-reel icon to play the movie in an external player.
The movies themselves seem fine...they do indeed play fine in Windows Media player, etc. I'm using all the same cameras...as far as I know, nothing has changed with the hardware or firmware on those devices.
In addition, Lightroom throws up a warning icon on each video. When I hover over it, the message says, "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo." Lightroom is saying "photo", that's not a typo. I have searched on this error a bit, and many other people have "video" in that message, which makes me wonder if some wires have gotten crossed on the file types, etc.
Any ideas? I'd love to get the previews back, it is a big time-saver over manually playing each anonymous video to see what it is...
Thanks,
Drew

Adobe Bridge Search Tool Just Stopped Working

i recently upgraded to CS6 and all was well for a couple weeks then all of the sudden the search tool in bridge just flat out stopped working. i always used it to search for keywords and it worked almost flawlessly until today. i have thousands of photos on multiple hard drives and ive even tried indexing them to no avail. nothing works. ive used both the search bar in the top right corner as well as the find window and still nada. i purged the cache, i rebuilt the cache and did everything else i could think of still to no avail. ive googled and googled and googled and found absolutely no help in resolving this issue. i reset bridge during startup also to no avail. i even indexed specific files in specific folders and pointed the search directly to those folders and still nothing. i dont know what else to try at this point. can anyone offer any suggestions before i give up and just re-install the product (which i REALLY dont wanna do)?
im running CS6 on Windows 7 64-bit .. and again, it worked fine until today. i havent changed any settings or modified anything that i can think of that would have thrown bridge out of whack.

Weird. Have you tried resetting Bridge (Ctrl/Cmd-click icon)?
Maybe the cache is damaged or unwriteable?
I assume that the index is created in the Cache 'data' folder, and that this is the root of your problem. As an experiment, you could create a new folder in a known good writeable location on an internal drive, and change the cache location in Bridge Preferences (making a note of the existing location first). When you restart Bridge, it will use the new location, and automatically create a new index and preview cache.
Then try a search in one folder, for a known used keyword, making sure you have indexing turned on in the search options. Let us know how you get on.

Adobe Illustrator CS2 preview icons stopped working

Has anyone seen this? Is there a solution?
All my .ai previews are now generic icons, they used to appear as a preview of the file under Tiger...This is really annoying -- I have hundreds of these!
(they seem to appear just fine under coverflow!)
Thanks,
A

I have the same problem (but I had it with Tiger to). First (with Leopard) it was OK, but it suddenly stopped working. I haven't changed anything and can't get it working again.

It seems when i do something simple as typing text, it'll stop working and give me a "Adobe Photoshop suddenly stop working". My CS4 32bit version seems to working fine with whatever i'm working on. I'm running a fresh install of Windows 7 64bit Ultimate on a new computer Intel quad core with 4gig of ram if that helps. Sorry if this have been asked before but i couldn't find anything on these forums. Thanks in advance.

i deleted the prefs file and now i can open photoshop. but it seems as if it crashes if i open ANY file with ANY text, no matter what the font is.

Either the physical drive or the enclosure electronics has failed. The light you are seeing is powered by the USB connection, the power, electricity, all USB ports put out. That doesn't mean the actual physical hard drive or the USB to SATA bus electronics are working properly. If it doesn't show in Disk Utility then it is DEAD.
Most of the time it is the enclosures electronics that fail. Removing the physical drive from the enclosure and put it in another enclosure or using a SATA to USB adapter, one that has it's own AC power supply, might allow you to get the files off the drive.

Satellite L300 suddenly stopped working - new motherboard needed

My Sat L300 suddenly stopped working the other day.
It kept freezing to start with, then nothing at all. So, I kill-disked the HDD and tried to re-install Windows (XP).
During the install it threw up a message that some internal components had been incorrectly installed and needed to be reinstalled.
I was told to remove the memory cards and re-seat them.
That did not work. I thought that perhaps the HDD was damaged, so I fitted a new one, and started to reinstall Windows.
Once again, same message. One of my colleagues at work suggested that the Motherboard was probably U/S.
So I have been trawling the .net to find a replacement. Laptop out of warranty! I am told that some other serial numbered motherboards will work with this laptop. Don't really want to get a motherboard only to find its never going to work! My unit has an SPS number of: V000138330.
I am being offered one with an SPS of: V000138390.
Any ideas? Will this one work?
And if it does, will it give me the functionality that I used to enjoy?!
Sorry for the long sob story.
Any advice gratefully accepted.

Hello Andy
Sorry but can you tell us more about your notebook? which model do you have exactly (L300-xxx)?
Do you have European model?
Has your notebook valid warranty?
Maybe I have misunderstood something but why you want to exchange mainboard if the warranty is probably still valid?

Outlook to iPhone sync failure – Sync suddenly stopped working for calendar events but continued for contacts and notes.   Finally Fixed!!! SUPPORT TEAM – PLEASE SEE THIS – Complete explanation of cause and correction steps.

The issue: Outlook to iPhone sync failure – Sync suddenly stopped working for calendar events but continued for contacts and notes.   Finally Fixed!!!
SUPPORT TEAM – PLEASE SEE THIS – Complete explanation of cause and correction steps.
The cause: It is now clear what caused this problem. For years I had several “all-day” events in my Outlook calendar (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.). In May 2012 I decided to make some of them one hour events so I could add alerts to remind me of the event. I did this by dragging them in Outlook to the time I wanted and expanding them to the time slot desired and then adding the alarm.
The symptom: Syncing stopped working for the calendar but continued working for contacts and notes. I didn’t realize sync was failing until months later when I missed two very important phone calls, so when I noticed it the cause was not obvious.
The failed attempts: I’m head of a software firm and my calendar sync is a crucial to my business life so I took this on with a vengeance. From a quick look at events in Outlook and the iPhone I could see that the problem started in May 2012. Events before May were in both Outlook and the iPhone but events after May were only one or the other. Unfortunately I had changed several other things at the same time relating to other events so again the cause was not obvious. MANY calls with AppleCare proved them incompetent so my internal IT guys assisted trying many things. We tried a huge number of calendar changes and several versions of iTunes, iPhone OS and Office as well as both iPhone 4 and 5, all without success.
The fix: After 18 months of frustration, MANY hundreds of $ expense and MANY hours of wasted time I saw a blog that had a calendar sync problem and it indicated all day events were related. I changed the display of the Outlook calendar to the list view, added columns so I could see “all day” event check marks as well as times of events, sorted on the “all day” event column to move them to the top, and for all events that were “all day” events AND had a start and end time, I removed recurrence and then added the annual recurrence back…
After I fixed all events that had BOTH “all day” set and had a start/end time, I tried another sync. It synced for the first time in 18 months!
Problem occurred May 2012 – fixed Nov 2013

Hi, to remove dummy '_ModGrp' entries, rather than crashing the 'Suppr' key on your keyboard, you can use this basic VBA macro (launched for instance from Excel).
It will recursively remove all '_ModGrp...' folders
Sub RemoveFolders_Click()
    Dim oOutlook As Outlook.Application
    Set oOutlook = New Outlook.Application
    Set objNameSpace = oOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Call CleanFolders(objNameSpace.Folders)
End Sub
Sub CleanFolders(objFolders As Outlook.Folders)
    For i = objFolders.Count To 1 Step -1
        If Left(objFolders(i).Name, 7) = "_ModGrp" Then
            objFolders.Remove( i )
        Else
            If Not objFolders(i).Folders Is Nothing Then
                Call CleanFolders(objFolders(i).Folders)
            End If
        End If
    Next i
End Sub

HT201263 My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine, but when I went back the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. What should I do?

My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine earlier, but when I went back a few hours later, the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. I thought it just needed to be charged but there seems to be a larger issue now. What should I do?

Let your ipod die. Then when it is dead charge it adn turn it back on. After that it should be fine.

HP Pavilion dm1-4000au Entertainment Notebook PC_Keyboard and Touchpad Suddenly Stops Working

Hi there,
I have an HP Pavilion dm1-4000au Entertainment Notebook PC (QG411PA) running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit for more than a couple of years already. During those times up until now, whenever my laptop is on standby for an hour or so, its keyboard and touchpad suddenly stops working, regardless if its running on battery or on AC power.
I always ensure that I have an external mouse in order for me to navigate properly and pull up the on-screen keyboard in order to type once that issue arises.
All appears to be updated in terms of Windows Updates and I even reformatted it, but issue still persists.
Is this particular issue that I am experiencing a harware issue? Perhaps a software issue? Or maybe a defective model itself?
Your prompt response is highly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Led

Outputs Suddenly Stopped Working.

I have a 5th gen Ipod that I've taken very good care of. Until yesterday I've had no problems with it at all. I was using the Ipod in my car w/ my Itrip and the Audio suddenly stopped working. I assumed it was the Itrip not working correctly, so I plugged it into a set of speakers (via the bottom output) but that wasn't working either. Then I plugged headphones in and there is no audio feeding through the headphone output either. I can see on the screen that the songs are playing on the ipod, but apparently the outputs are not functioning correctly. I tried all of the "Rs" recommended in troubleshooting but those did not help. Any suggestions?

i have the exact same problem. Although i am able to here the clicks throught the headphones which makes me wonder that this is something with software. although i have restored and reinstalled and all that, nothing.
Anyone have a solution?
