Cover flow re Appleworks

I really like the Cover Flow feature in Finder, but I find that it does not display my Appleworks documents. I'm surprised that my old (forgive me) PC documents from Excel will display, but my Appleworks documents will not. Anyone else noticing this? All other documents (PDF, JPG, etc.) come up just fine.

Yes this is unfortunate, although we can hope that the document quick view will be added with a future update. Apple Works has served me well and I still use it for all my invoicing and database documents, since iWork does not have a database yet.
There are a number of other documents that QuickView can't open, but I haven't compiled a list.

  • Document content do not appear in finder preview, quick look or cover flow

    The contents of all types of appleworks documents do not appear in finder preview, quick look or cover flow on both of my computers. The generic AWKS logo appears.
    Why does this happen and what can be done to correct this?
    I have repaired permissions a number of times and have restarted the computer.

    AppleWorks 6 was written before OS X & long before Leopard & Quick Look. There hasn't even been an update since January 2004. The ability to create the image for Quick Look likely will never happen.

    I'm not sure Appleworks files are supported in any form of preview. Appleworks was killed long before any of the preview functions were developed, so I don't suppose its file types were included.
    Quicklook has a plugin architecture, so perhaps some programmer that likes Appleworks will create a plugin for it.

  • Can not properly view cover flow in full screen in external display

    My mac is the new Mac book pro 15.4 inch screen and I connect my mac pro to external display e.g. Samsung LCD monitor 24 inches.
    The bug is that I can not PROPERLY view full screen (in external display) for some application e.g. iTunes, and Front Row.
    - When I use iTunes, I can not properly view Cover Flow view in full screen (in the external display screen) except the case of mirror display.
    - For Front Row, I can not view full screen in external display but only my mac display.
    However, for other DVD or VDO players, I can view movie on external display in full screen and I still be able to do other works on my mac screen.
    Please let me know how to solve it.

  • Is there a way of making my iPod's "cover flow" sort in the same way the software can . Artist -- Album by Year . It only seems to do Artist -- by Alphabetical Album . I want it look like it does on the PC .

    Is there a way to make the "cover flow" on the iPod match the sort style that I use on the software . I go with Artist -- Album by Release Year . But the ipod seems to only do Artist -- Alphabetical by Album , and then there are a handful of albums oddly out of place . Can it be done ?

    Ottonomy, here's what to do.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer and open the iPhone's playlist in an iTunes window. Copy/Paste the entire playlist into a new(!) playlist in iTunes, not on your iPhone. Then resort the playlist. After you sort it, Copy/Paste it to a new(!) playlist on your iPhone. Now delete the old playlist on your iPhone and rename the new playlist the name you want it to be (probably the same name as the old playlist).
    The downside to this method is that you have to do it every time you add a song to the playlist. Unfortunately, I don't think there's another way.

  • What's wrong with my iPod's Cover Flow??

    I have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen, 32Gb, and recently updated to IOS 5.
    Since then, the iPod's cover flow feature is extremely slow, doesn't flow smoothly, and crashes after a few (15-20) seconds.
    Today I noted something else: some album covers appear pixelated and blurry, even though HD. Those covers looked just fine until now.
    As a side note, I have in use 30 of the 32 Gb (that's a lot of music, I know). Could this be related? I never had those problems before IOS 5, though.
    What's wrong with my iPod?
    Thanks for your help!

    so as I see it people with this problem have 3 options
    - Make all of your album art a maximum of 500X500 pixels
    - Wait for an IOS update that fixes the problem
    - Scrap ipods and buy another brand of music player
    Using photoshop to do it with, it took me about an hour to resize, change, and resync all of my 1400 songs(86 albums)

  • Cover flow lion finder window

    Horrible horrible horrible feature of Lion: 
    iPhoto is occupied iwth a large upload of images to flickr.
    I want to review some more of the images I shot today in thumbnail to
    open and start working on them in photoshop without waiting for iPhoto
    to finish (this is reason #6099 why I do not let iPhoto control the
    location of my photos on the drive, so I can access them without
    opening their specific iPhoto library).
    I open the enclosing folder for the images, click to view by icon,
    enlarge the icons, then click to sort the photos by date, and....COVER
    FLOW!  they've Cover-Flow-ized the icon view when you do any kind of
    sort except by name. 
    I cannot say how much I hate cover flow--nausea-inducing for the
    motion sickness prone, nasty vile scheme in general--and now, it's
    dropped the images I can see in one glance at the screen in this icon
    by date view of the finder window to ONE, and I can't turn it off.  I
    do NOT have coverflow checked in view options.
    Is there any way to kill coverflow completely in every place they've
    put it?
    (Feedback already sent to apple, BTW, if you have this problem too, and there's no solution offered by one of the bright folks on this board, please send them some at apple.com/feedback--the place to put feedback for programs like finder that don't have a 'send feedback' menu item))

    Support call gave the solution:  instead of 'Arrange by', use the 'clean up by' command under the view menu in Finder.  This does what arrange by used to, and while the menu options are more limited than 'arrange by', it doesn't default to the cover-flow behavior that is so irritating.
    If you hate cover flow like I do, please send them feedback.  If enough of us complain about it, maybe they'll stop putting it all over the place.

  • Screen saver overrides iTunes cover flow in Lion

    On my new iMac (OSX 10.7.1, iTunes 10.4.1), when in full screen cover flow mode, the screen saver overrides this, which is annoying as I like to leave it playing with the artwork displayed. This did not happen on my old (Leopard) Mac. I can't find any preference setting that seems to fix this. I dont really want to turn off the screen saver - I didn't have to before, why now?

    Have you tried creating a hot corner (System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver - Hot Corners) to disable the screen saver by parking mouse pointer in the "hot corner."
    I'm assuming Lion still has this function.

  • Cover Flow does not update in full-screen mode

    Following an upgrade to iTunes 10.5 (141) and Lion (10.7.2) - I've noticed that Cover Flow no longer updates to the current song in full-screen mode. It will return to, and remain frozen at the first song of the playlist until manually updated or I revert to non-full-screen mode.

    I assume you are using a desktop shortcut to start Lightroom.  Look at the properties for that shortcut.  There should be an option to set it to "maximize".

  • How do i get rid of cover flow in music on my 4s

    how do you get rid of cover flow off on the 4s and go back to play list

    Cover flow appears when your phone is rotated in landscape position (sideways).  Rotate it back to portrait position (upright) to return to the song list.

  • My cover flow does not work on my 3rd gen 64 gb ipod touch

    My cover flow does not work on my 3rd gen 64 gb ipod touch and neither does shake to shuffle.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Hi. I am having an issue with music on my IPod. It would probably be easier to explain my specific issue: I have songs by Band of Horses from Cease to Begin. When viewing my albums through cover flow, it shows Cease To Begin as two separate albums, one with only Islands on the Coast, and the other having Islands on the Coast with 3 other songs. If I delete the album with only one song from my IPod, it deletes the song from the other "album" as well. If I go to "All Songs" by Band of Horses, it only shows one Islands on the Coast, so it is not a duplicate issue. Also, in Itunes, it only shows one album. I just recently updated to iOS5 on my 4th Gen IPod Touch, if that helps.

  • Cover flow not working properly.

    When I delete photos from cover flow the file name goes from the list but the photo stays. For example if I now select photo number 20 I am actually viewing photo number 19 and all the following photos are numbered wrongly. The only way to rectify it is to reboot.

    I have just found out that I don't have to shut down the computer to rectify this I only need to close finder.

  • Cover flow problem

    I recently converted to Mavericks. I'm finding that when I view files in 'cover flow' and delete a file from the list the picture of the file does not simultaneously delete and so become out of sync with the list. Anyone have this problem? a solution?

    I had the same problem. You may need to fix this in the music library in iTunes. (right) Click on the album title info and choose Get Album Artwork. Some tracks don't have artwork and others pick up different artwork than you expect. You can live with what it has or upload your own if you prefer.

  • How do we get Apple to put cover flow back into iTunes?

    How do we organize to grit cover flow back?

    You can request it.  That does not mean that the owners of the film will allow it.
