When I open PS from LR to edit an image, the thumbnail appears in the side bar but the image area is white, PS CC 2014!

Hi,
I've just started a subscription for the Photographers package, when I open PS from LR to edit an image, the thumbnail appears in the side bar but the image area is white, I'm sure this is a stupid newbie mistake but I can't for the life of me see what I've done wrong.

Are you referring the the multiple thumbnails in ACR side bar? I don't use LR but I do use Photoshop and as far as I know Photoshop has no sidebar with image thumbnails.

Website help: Creating a side bar then the main part of the webpage??

Hi guys, im currently making a website in dreamweaver but ive coe into some problems and theyve got me stumped...
basically, i have been using dreamweaver and ive managed to create a side bar for my website with separate div tages etc and now i want to create the main body of the page, eg the menu and the images but i cant get it do do what i want it to do...
when i insert the div tag for the main body part of my page it is placed above the side bar when i want it to the side of it, inline with it.... /: its fustrting cust ive been able to style all of the side bar and ive wanted to complete the rest of the site but currently im unable to...

OK, here is how you need to look at your page:
The outermost defined area is the body. Generally, to set up a website, you create basic "applies to all" stuff in the body definitions in your style sheet:
For example:
body {
          font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Grande", sans-serif;
          color: #000;
          background-color: #FFFFFF;
          margin: 20px 0;
          padding: 0px;
That's going to create normal paragraph text in the website as Lucidia Sans (or Lucidia Grande if the client doesn't have that defaulting to sans-serif if that is not available), text color is black, background is white, top margin is 20 pixels, clear left and right margins and clear all padding.
Now, you need to enclose the "website" into something that encases everything and I usually call that an outer wrapper.
.outer-Wrapper {
          width: 80%;
          max-width: 1260px;/* a max-width may be desirable to keep this layout from getting too wide on a large monitor. This keeps line length more readable. IE6 does not respect this declaration. */
          min-width: 780px;/* a min-width may be desirable to keep this layout from getting too narrow. This keeps line length more readable in the side columns. IE6 does not respect this declaration. */
          background: #FFF;
          margin: 0 auto; /* the auto value on the sides, coupled with the width, centers the layout. It is not needed if you set the .container's width to 100%. */
Explanations in comments.
Now, you set up the rest of your page:
.header {
#nav {
          margin-left: 20%;
/* ~~ These are the columns for the layout. ~~
1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the divs. The elements within these divs have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a div set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For divs where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the div's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.
3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar divs could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.
4) If you prefer your nav on the right instead of the left, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all right instead of all left) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the divs around in the HTML source.
.sidebar {
          float: left;
          width: 20%;
          background-color: #cccccc;
          padding-bottom: 10px;
          color: #FFF;
.content {
          padding: 10px 0;
          width: 80%;
          float: left;
          color: #000;
Lastly, you want your footer to be below both columns, so you define that:
.footer {
          padding: 10px 0;
          position: relative;/* this gives IE6 hasLayout to properly clear */
          clear: both; /* this clear property forces the .container to understand where the columns end and contain them */
          background-color: #eeeeee; /*This makes it gray so that it is separated from the rest of the page, but isn't too dark for black text */
Now, let's go to the html:
Define your page. Dreamweaver will allow you to define a page as XHTML 1.0 transitional or strict or XHTML 1.1, HTML 4.01 transitional or strict or HTML5. Older versions of Dreamweaver have no HTML5 and may have older versons of HTML, but I either use XHTML 1.0 transitional or HTML5. There are good reasons for this.
Dreamweaver will set up the site definitions depending on what you choose above the <head> area.
Within the <head> area, you define the character set, give a title (make it unique for each page in your website) and point to your style sheet. You can use Dreamweaver's "Attach stylesheet." Any calls to JavaScript go here as well. If you have a separate style sheet for a drop-down menu structure or any other navigation, it will go there as well. Remember to close the <head> tag.
Now, we define the body and go into the page:
<body>
<div class="outer-Wrapper">
<div ="header"> Header Goes Here</div>
<div id="nav">Navigation placed here</div>
<div class="sidebar">Your sidebar will go here</div>
<div class="content">Your main content goes here and it will live to the right of your sidebar on the left</div>
<div class="footer">I generally put the copyright information here and sometimes additional navigation in the footer</div>
<div> 
</body>
</html>
This will absolutely work.

Since the last 2 updates to Firefox my screen flickers or blanks out when I scroll my mouse, or type. I also can't scroll using the side bar on the right side of the screen. Please help!

As detailed in my question. I need help as my screen has been flickering or blanking out when I scroll my mouse or when I type. This has only started happening since the last 2 updates to Firefox.

Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.<br />
If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.<br />

Is there a way to remove items from the "places" part of the finder side bar?

Is there a way to remove items placed in the "Places" column of the side bar in the finder window?

Control-click them and remove them, or just drag them out.

Multiple checkmarks in the Finder Windows menu

Here's an odd one. I've been seeing multiple check marks in the Finder's Window menu. The menu normally puts a check mark next to the front-most window. However, having more than one window checked makes no sense. More worrisome is why this is happening and what it says about the integrity of my Finder.
Does anyone have any idea why I would be seeing this and how to fix it? I haven't trashed the Finder preferences yet, but that seems the next obvious step.

Terence Devlin It was not my intention to step on your tone, Sorry for that.
But.
+Pathfinder is not a System Add-on. It's an application.+
That is right it's an addition to the finder with different graphics and so it's not a modification to the standard window. What I like is a basic Finder window with just added tabs.
+Sweeping generalisation there... and you've tried them all? Really?+
Yes, I do think I tried them all and I still think they all miss the simplicity and elegance of the Finder windows. But if you know a good alternative (not pathfinder) I really would like that.
+Pathfinder brings many very useful functions to the table - that's why one might consider it.+
You are right. I do totally agree on that. But I rather work with the standard Finder window/info window , etc.
+On the contrary it "do leaving the finder as it is" - it makes not a whit of a difference to the Finder, you can even run the two side by side if you want. Changes made in the filesystem with one will be instantly available in the other. Perhaps, in trying "all those system add-ons" you didn't try them very carefully.+
That is exactly my point you end up using them side by side. Two different windows with things on different places. But I think on this point you really did not try to see what I was talking about.
+Case in point. The Pathfinder window is highly customisable and all that functionality that you don't like can be hidden away.+
Yes, But did you find a way to show all the other computers in the network in the side bar like the Finder (leopard) does?

Cannot mount NFS shares using the Finder

Hello all!
I have a directory structure on a OpenSuse NFS Server which I like to browse/read using my MAC OSX 10.5.6. It works like a joy when I am mounting the NFS share on the command line using "sudo":
sudo mount -o resvport nfshost:/full/path/NFS/share /My/mount/point
However, this is kind of unconvenient as I need to start Terminal and sudo always asks me for the root password. I would appreciate to mount the NFS share just as I mount afp shares using the Finder. But the NFS share is neither searchable using the Finder nor does it show up in the list of host in the side bar of the Finder.
Does anyone has an idea how to solve that? Thx for your information!

The problem is most likely that your NFS server requires that connections come from reserved ports but you can't connect that way from the Finder GUI.
Your example:
sudo mount -o resvport nfshost:/full/path/NFS/share /My/mount/point
shows that you need to use "-o resvport" and that you need to do the mount as root. (This is because the networking stack requires you to be root to get a reserved port.) When you try to mount it via the Finder, you can't specify any mount options like "-o resvport" and even if you could the mount would fail because the Finder isn't running as root.
My first suggestion would be to change the configuration of your server to not require clients to use reserved ports for the NFS protocol. Unfortunately, Linux chooses to call that option "insecure" even though requiring the use of reserved ports (using "secure") doesn't actually make NFS more secure.
Alternatively, you could configure the mount to be performed by something that does do the mount as root - e.g. automount/autofs. You can do this by configuring the mount on Directory Utility's "Mounts" section... you'll want to add "resvport" to the "Advanced mount options" field.

New-host-5 under "shared" in finder side bar after Lion update

Just upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion.
Intermittently I am now seeing "new-host-5" in the SHARED section of the side bar of a finder window. Switching WiFi off and back on makes it disappear and not come back.
Any help on tracking this down is much appreciated.
Thanks, C

Just did a little more digging and found that the IP address for "new-host-5" is the same as the one for my iMac, who is also on the network. Curiously enough the machine also shows up in the SHARED section with it's real name. Very puzzeling!

When I click a bookmark it opens in the bookmark side bar, not in the main window.

I want a selected bookmark to open in the main browser window when I click it (as it has always done before)

Bookmarks that open in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website to add a bookmark for that site.
*Check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac).
*In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
*'''''Make sure that''''' "Load this bookmark in the side bar" is not selected (un-check it).

TS3274 Could any IPAD USER please advise how I can go back to the Itunes store/library from the movie, music, etc. page? Only the options for movie/tv/music etc show at the bottom but nothing that will take me back to the side bar. PLEASE HELP, THANKS?

Could any IPAD User please advise how I can go back to the Itunes/Library/Devices side bar from the music, tv, movies pages? The only thing that shows at the bottom are the selections for music/movies/ etc. Thanks

You don't get a sidebar in the iTunes app on the iPad. Your downloaded and synced music, audiobooks and audio podcasts will be in the Music app and your videos and TV shows will be in the Videos app - the iTunes app on the iPad is just the iTunes store.

Side bar icons are so small

Unmounting SD card makes the Finder slow.

I've noticed that since moving to an Intel machine, unmounting an SD card from an external card reader renders the Finder slow in one particular area - when clicking on any of the icons on the Finder's side bar (both the drives above the horizontal divider, and the favourites below) it will take about ten seconds for the contents of the window to update. A reboot will clear this behaviour, but simply re-starting the Finder will not.
Does this happen to anybody else? If not, perhaps the problem is with my card reader (a cheap "Flash Gear" unit), although this didn't use to happen on my old PowerMac.

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO RECOGNIZE AND IMPORT MTS FILES. (No help from Apple.)
After 4 frustrating hours and about 40 useless minutes wasted on Apple Support chat, I figured this out.
Okay, here are the steps to allow Mountain Lion to see your MTS files on a Panasonic camera SD card and import them:
Click on your camera SD card.
RIGHT Click on PRIVATE icon. (This used to be a folder, now it is a Quicktime logo.)
Pull down command for “Show Package Contents”
Click on AVCHD
Pull down command for “Show Package Contents”
Click on BDMV
Pull down command for “Show Package Contents”
Open the folder called STREAM
There are your MTS files. Select them and copy them to a folder on your hard drive.
Purchase some type of video converter (I paid 30 bucks for Bigasoft Converter and it works.)
Import the MTS files into the video converter and set the commands (This is several more steps, which you will have to figure out.) This will take quite a while for large, High Def files.
Save converted files to your hard drive.
NOW, finally FCP X will let you import and edit your files.
Thanks Apple for adding 12 steps where it should take one. “Log and Transfer” or IMPORT. You should fix this.
It took me about 4 hours of frustration to figure this out. Apple support chat service was no help at all. The girl in chat had no understanding of video files.
Thank you Apple, for hiding these files behind your Quicktime logo, thanks for adding extra steps and decreasing productivity. I've been using Macintosh computers since 1987. I would not own a PC, but Apple is not what it used to be. Why would you not just let the .MTS files show without hiding them?

How can I drag an image from a page in Safari to the finder and have it be saved as an *actual* image instead of a webloc?

Safari used to let me drag an image from a webpage to the finder and have the dragged file be saved as an actual image but now all that's saved is a webloc file. I want the image saved, not a reference to the image's URL - do I now have to always use "save as" to save it?
I can understand Safari creating a webloc file if I dragged the site icon from the location bar to the finder, but to make the default behavior for dragging things that are parts of a page (not the page itself) as webloc files seems like a HUGE step backwards for usability.
Does anyone know if there's, say, a key to hold when dragging to avoid saving a webloc file or a defaults command or something to make Safari revert back to sane draging behavior?

Good questions... I'll have to try and figure out when the problem first happened - I was thinking it was when I upgraded to Safari 5.1.4 but that might not be the case... I'll try your suggestions to see if any of them eliminate the problem (I have restarted recenlty and that didn't fix it) but I'll try repairing permissions,etc. Thanks!
hmmm... Mcbuffy: are you implying that you *don't* get the webloc when dragging an image out of Safari and that this isn't a caused by change to Safari but is a big/conflict in mine?
