Help! can't see CR2 thumbnails In Bridge

what can I try?
I cannot see the thumbnails in Bridge but can go into CS4 and open them up no problem
I shoot Canon 5d Mark II
I downloaded Camera Raw 5.3
works fine for my regular 5D but no on the new Mark II
any suggestions?
thanks!

Hi - Joan's husband here (I built the computer hardware for her, but don't
really know Photoshop that well). I did a search for "camera raw" files and
found a second instance located in the adobe/common files folder (not in
program file subfolders as the proper plugin is located per instructions).
It was the 5.0 version, and I could not do anything with it, eg delete it as
it "was in use by a program", even though I had no prgrams open. I was able
to rename it to "old camera raw 5-0", and I copied the new camera raw 5.4
version into that folder. I rebooted and now had 3 camera raw plugins
appearing in CS4/hlep/about/plugins drop down list.
I then went back into the common file folder and was able to delete the old
camera raw file. I now have two camera raw files appearing in the
help/aboutplugins dropdwon, but they are both the same 5.4 version. Now I am
able to see a selection to generate a high quality thumbnail for the cs2
files in Bridge when I right-clicked on those, and this generated the
thumbnails for all of those file types. All is well now (I hope !!), thanks
for your input and advice.
I did purge the cache, but that didn't change anything as far as I could
tell. Also, the 5.4 update doesn't show the Canon 5D Mark II on the list of
updated cameras for this revision, so I don't think it is a necessary update
for this specific camera, but probably good to stay current.
If this was an "end-run" around a proper fix then I would like to know the
proper way to resolve this.
Best Regards,
Jeff Sutton

How can I see CR2 photos in Bridge (using Win 8.1 Pro 64.bit). With Win 7 Pro there is no problem.

You may want to mention the camera type, though.

Can't see several thumbnails in photoshop elements organizer grid

Can't see several thumbnails in photoshop elements organizer grid but when I open a non-viewable thumnail in the editor I can see it in the grid.
After opening the image in the editor it appears in the Organizer grid.

Seems like the thumbnail cache is corrupted in some way. Start by trying to Repair and Optimize the catalog (File > Manage Catalogs).

Can't see psd thumbnails in the open dialog box.

In the open dialog box, the thumbnails for psd files do not show the picture but show an Elements logo instead. How can I see picture thumbnails for psd files as I do for jpg files? I found a dng codec on the web site but not a psd codec. The dng codec doesn't work for psd files.

Hi,
Is there any error message when you try to map network Drive manually? It would be better to provide more details about error message.
Generally speaking, this problem can be caused by Network Connection problem, please make sure your Client PC could access to Network Drive PC.
In addition, please check Network Drive PC security setting, if there is any firewall policy prevent this operation.
If still no use, please check Event Viewer if it identify this problem.

There is no error. There is no connectivity problem. THe drives map automatically and always have. I can open up File Explorer and browse these drives all I want. I can open up Word and browse to these drives just fine.
However, when I open certain programs, and click File | Open, the mapped network drives just simply aren't there. I only see C and D and that's it.

Help, can't see older pictures in iPhoto

In my iPhoto library on the most recent events and pictures can be seen. By recent I mean mid 2010 onwards. The ones I can't see date back to 1999. These have blank thumbnails and when I click on an image - nothing.
Information like event name and date and the number of pictures inside is still intact as as the name of all my albums. The preview at the bottom of the screen shows the photos but after rebuild can still see older events but everything is blank now.
I noticed the icon beside iPhoto library is just a plain white file and not the iPhoto icon. After hitting "show package contents" I also notice the icon on the AlbumXML is also plain white file icon.
I tried iPhoto rebuild - nothing.
I tried BatcMod - nothing
I tried iPhoto Library Manager - rebuilt the photos and events I can already see.
Can I go back in Time Machine and pick an earlier version of my library - if so how do I do it?
I have more than 19000 pictures and am praying I haven't lost them.
I recently upgraded to Lion and am not sure if this is the reason.
Can anyone help me PLEASE??

Hi Terence - thanks for your reply.
So what exactly am I looking for in Time Machine and how do I restore it?
Is it my iPhoto library?
Appreciate any help you can give me.

Can't open .cr2 files in Bridge CS4 v.3

Been browsing for hours; can't find the right answer...
I just purchased a Canon 60D, which shoots .cr2 raw files. They won't open in Bridge, which previously opened my Canon 10D .crw raw files. What do I need to do to make the .cr2 files open?
I'd rather not install Canon's Digital Photo Professional 3.10 (came with camera) if I can find a solution/upgrade within Bridge/PSE.
Details:
MacBook OS X 10.5.8
Bridge CS4, completely updated to v. 3 with Camera Raw v. 5.7 (which are the latest updates available, I think; just updated today).
Photoshop Elements 8
Thanks in advance.

Your CR2 files from the 60D are not supported for your version of ACR.
Each vendor uses different Raw type and sadly enough they use also a different raw type for each new camera the produce. Adobe offers free upgrade for those cameras, about 3 or 4 times a year. In the past they could not get the new Raw types earlier then the consumers so often this meant you had to wait for a period before the ability in ACR was there. Today they have a better relationship and often get pre production models so the updates are already there when the new cameras arrive on the market.
However being a commercial company they don't offer those upgrades for other then the latest versions of ACR and Photoshop. Currently CS6 and CC are both getting the updates but earlier version are not upgraded any longer.
Here is a list of the cameras that are supported and the minimum ACR versions needed for the cameras:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
There is another option available and that is the free Adobe DNG converter. The latest version is here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5596
Or if the link does not work do a search on Adobe.com your self. After the files have been converted to DNG you will be able to use them in your version of ACR.

Can't see jpeg thumbnails

After 6 hours of reading the same solution, I still can't get this to work. I can't see jpeg thunbmails/icons. Just that stupid jpeg icon and I've done the cmd j preview icon thing and everything else mentioned. This is stupid.. os x mavericks 10.9.1
Is there a proper solution to fix this? It's absolutely maddening to not be able to view the image preview when looking at 100's of files in finder.
Thanks!

just found my answer elsewhere in the forum: "view options/view icon"
sorry!

Can't see event thumbnails

Hello. Just updated to 7.0.1 and most everything is fine. However, I cannot see the event thumbnails - I just get the "boxes" where the thumbnails should be. Two odd things: 1) when I drag the cursor over the box I get a gradient - light to dark gray, 2) if I scroll down quickly I do see some thumbnails at the bottom of the page but they then disappear. Lastly, the thumbnails are visible when I am in "photo" mode. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Back up and try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

Help-can't see (canvas) item in viewer

Hi
I'm trying to position an 8 point garbage matte by use of the canvas, but can't see the positions because I can't see the item in the viewer while I am on the controls page in the canvas
please excude dumb qstn, what am I doing wrong, how can i get it to show in viewer?
thanks : )

Hi(Bonjour)!
Not sure to understand your question, but you can "tear" the filter tab from viewer window and position it anywhere on your screen. Be sure to double-clic the clip with the garbage matte applied to open it in viewer before tearing the filter tab.
There also a local menu in this filter that allows to "see" either your garbage matte, source material, composition in the canvas.

Can't see CR2 files in Adobe Bridge CS6

I have recently purchased Canon 5D Mark iii and have taken a few shots in RAW mode. When I try to open the file in Adobe Bridge CS6, I can't view the file.
I also have a canon T2i and the raw file from that camera show perfectly fine.
What could be the problem? All my CS6 software is up to date.

Updated to ACR 8.4? There is an issue:
The fix is to download a 8.4 again via the link below and follow the instructions to replace the existing 8.4 plugin:

I can't see image thumbnails in my library.

not able to view thumbnails to edit . i set the image size to 12 megs file size and that didn't help. the pics are jpegs. the app will open the file and then I can see the pic. but it isn't the one I want.
thanks,
BottomShark

Thanks for getting back on this. Not sure of the algorithm but I take it the application copies my photos before you can view them because as time past I noticed I was able to view more and more of my photos and now I can view all the photos on my phone. The application itself is wonderful. It allows me to quickly enhance my photos prior to sharing them with family and friends. I was able view photos on my phone and then open them with Photoshop touch and save changes to my phone. Now everything is working. Thanks again from another satisfied customer.

Help - Can't See any of my photos

Hoping that someone can help me - I am really at a loss here.
I am using Lightroom 1.3.1 on a Vista 64 system with 8G RAM. Things had been working fine, but suddenly I cannot see any of my picture, either in the Library module or in the Develop module.
In the Library module, I just see gray boxes for the thumbnails. When I originally open the Lightroom, there are no thumbnails, but when I mouse over them, the gray thumbnails appear. They also appear very disorganized - for example the gray thumbnail box for the "2" frame is upside down and the "2" label is reversed (mirror image). The filestrip view is similar.
If I go to the develop module, all I see is a gray box instead of the picture itself.
I've tried a few things - I deleted the preferences file and recreated it. I verified the integrity of the catalog. I tried creating a new catalog and I tried uninstalling and re-installing Lightroom. Nothing that I have done changes what I see.
Help - I am at a loss as to what to try next!
Thanks,
Paul

Well it actually uses the Profile which many another app wont bother to do, so if it is a corrupt profile it reacts differently that other apps.

Can't see all thumbnails in iPhoto library

Suddenly, when I tab over to the photos tab, I no longer see all the thumbnails in my iPhoto library. Some of them come up, most of them don't. I have tried trashing the iMovie .plist, run Diskwarrior, and rebuilt permissions. When I open iPhoto, all of the thumbnails are there and everything looks fine, only a problem when I try to access them through iMovie.
Also, when I log in as another user, everything seems to work fine!! Runnning iMovie 5.0.2 on Mac OS 10.4.3 Help!

Download and use Find Any File to search for a file named "Library6.iPhoto". It's a file that is in every iPhoto library. FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't, like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If your library is somewhere on the hard drive FAF will find it.

I can't see the thumbnail in the Assets Panel.

I have downloaded the newest version of PE 12 and when I download the AVI files into the assets panel, they appear, but appear black and not as any thumbnail that I can identify when trying to do my editing. I can view them in the timeline and they play just fine, but I have a lot of clips and I can't sort through the ones that I want to use if I can't identify it in the panel. All of the other clips show up just fine, but these AVI files (mpeg2) won't give me the thumbnail view that I need. I'm using Windows 7. Any ideas?

lugeman13
We have a lot to sort out here. Your information has been very helpful but still some gaps.
1. When you look at the file on the computer hard drive (before it ever see Premiere Elements, what is the file extension, .mod or .avi?
2. When these video were originally recorded by the JVC camera, were they recorded as mod 4:3 or mod widescreen 16:9?
3. Mod standard and especially Mod standard widescreen have been highly problematic for Premiere Elements (any version). Is there any chance that you or someone else could have been trying to convert these files to something else and that the something else might be the problem now?
4. Would it be possible for you to post a screenshot of the Properties readout that you get for the file when you right click its thumbnail in Project Assets and select Properties?
There have been two classical remedies for .mod file
a. standard or standard widescreen, rename the file extension from .mod to .mpg before file import into Premiere Elements
and
b. for mod standard widescreen, use Premiere Elements Interpret Footage to correct the 4:3 look for the intended 16:9 video
More on those matters later.
We will be watching for your follow up.
Thanks.
