Can't see previews on import

Hello everybody,
I was just getting started to import photos into lr3.  I did a couple of tests and it worked fine.  the third time i hit the import button picked the folder LR3 shows how many files are their but will not show me the previews.  it worked fine the first two times but the third time is not the charm.  if I hit the import button it will bring in the files then show me preivews of the files.  i can then use them as normal. 
Does anyone know what I may have done to cause this or has anyone else encountered this problem.  All I see in the center work area is a grey screen. 
2- do any of you know how to delete a unneeded catalog from lr3?

See this tiny arrow in the red circle? I spent about a week trying to solve the same mistery

  • I can't see previews of RAW images from a Canon PowerShot G16 in Lightroom 4

    I can't see previews of RAW images from a Canon PowerShot G16 in Lightroom 4?

    For that camera, you need at least Lightroom 5.2. The alternative would be to use the DNG converter, version 8.2 or later. Or, you can upgrade to Lightroom 5.

  • Can't see preview of .oam in design mode?

    I can't see preview of my .oam in design mode. I  can see it fine in preview mode, but I just see a blank box in design mode. I play, but I would at least expect a preview of it. In the tutorial I believe I saw that, so maybe there is something I'm not doing or am experiencing a bug?
    Here is a screenshot of design mode

    Quit the mail app, launch the app again and then look to see if the messages appear, if not - quit the mail app and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps.
    Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work, reset your iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Safari can't see latest iphoto import

    One thing that drives me nuts about my new mac is that if I import a new photo in iPhoto (i.e. from Flash drive or iPhone) it can never find it until I restart my computer. If you're in facebook or blogger or anything, and you click to upload a file, it will only see whatever you imported previously, not the latest pictures.
    Clearly, something's set up funny. Ideas?

    Hi,
    You can sync photos using iTunes from your iPhone to your Mac then upload to Facebook.

  • How can I see preview images of STN files in CS4?

    I save many of my art files as STN (Genuine Fractals) files so I can print on demand at various sizes. I used to be able to see tiny preview images of these files; now, using CS4 32-bit or 64-bit with Windows 7 64-bit OS, all I see in my STN folder is little blank page icons - no images. I have descriptive filenames, but still - it would REALLY help to be able to quickly scan the images for the one I want to open in PhotoShop. I used to be able to see these preview STN images. Help??

    Theoretically, to see Sting format (.stn) thumbnails, you'd have to get a codec from the OnOne software people and install it into Windows Explorer as a shell extension.  This has nothing to do with Photoshop.
    I know of no such codec available, at least not for .x64 systems (64 bit Explorer).  I haven't seen .stn thumbnails for a long time, and I currently have their Perfect Resize 7 product.
    But it seems to me that a long ago when I used a 32 bit OS there was a time that I could see .stn thumbnails.  Perhaps they once provided a 32 bit codec with their product, or I had a 3rd party codec that understood the format.
    It would be a great question to pose to OnOne Software.  If you do, please report back here what they say.

  • Can't see preview in Canvas

  • How can I see pictures not imported using iphoto within iphoto?

    I just got a new iMac and am converting over from a Dell PC.  I have thousands of pictures that I copied over.  I then synced my ipad and all those pictures imported using iPhoto.  I liked the ability to see Events and Faces and ws thinking I might like to bring in all of my older pictures.  Is there a way to do that? Would I even want to? Would it recognize the folder structure I established for each event? 

    As Léonie pointed out each folder imported into iPhoto will result in an Event with the same name as the folder. In the photos mode with Event titles set to be displayed you'll get this:
    Once inside iPhoto you can merge  Events or drag photos from one event into another.
    However if you want to create a hierarchical folder organization you'll need to do that in the left hand pane of iPhoto with folders and albums. 
    That is create a folder and drag events into it and you will have albums in the folder representing the events.  These are only pointers to the original files and not duplicate files.  Folders can hold folders, albums, books, slideshows but not individual photos.  So you could create a hierarchy like this:

  • Can't see books i imported from Audible on my new PC

    I just got a new PC with Windows 8.1 and when I opened iTunes I don't see the books I have imported into iTunes from Audible.com.  The library is on my old computer (PC WinXP) but no books on this new computer.  How do I get them to show up?

    As alex_h1 replied, your audiobooks should be available to you if you've transferred your library from your old computer.  Three points to note:
    The Audible downloader utility generally puts audiobooks in C:\Users\Public\Documents\Audible\Downloads - if your old iTunes installation was configured to not copy files to the iTunes Media folders then they may be in that location and that location only.
    In most cases you can retrieve previously purchases from the Audible site, though there are exceptions - mainly where an agreement between Audible and a publisher has lapsed.  In general if you can still buy the audiobook from Audible and you've previously purchased it, you should be able to download it again.
    To listen to your audiobooks on your new computer and sync them from there to iDevices, you'll need to authorize your Audible account for the new computer (and, if the old one's no longer to be used, you should deauthorize it there).

  • Need Help !  Can't see songs after importing from CD, but shows in explorer

  • Can't see mp3s I imported

    The podcasts I imported as mp3s don't show in iTunes, even though they're in "iTunes Music" directory on my computer. I did both File > Add File to Library and > Add Folder to Library. Now what?

    Thanks for the tip on MP3 Validator -- useful little program. But it appears the problem is that the mp3 files I attempted to import are not imported by iTunes. Rather, iTunes just zips through the > Add File to Library function without adding them! Worse, when I tried copying the files from a source folder into the iTunes Music folder, then restart iTunes, iTunes doesn't even see the files (although they show in Explorer)! BTW, those mp3s in the source folder checked out fine with MP3 Validator. Any thoughts?
