Cs6 photoshop layer thumbnail missing

The cs6 photoshop layer thumbnail is missing when I work with layers. The background layer shows, but when I use duplicate or new adjustment layer it's a white blank. This just started. Help?

This feature will available to you on June 17th when Photoshop CC launches along with the rest of the new CC apps.
Sorry to get you all excited about these new features, only to leave you hanging with a month-long wait.

"Load files into Photoshop layers" completely missing from Bridge CS6

No options to load files into Photoshop layers. Why not, and how can I put several files into one Photoshop layer?
I'm using Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CC.

Hi JJMack - I just re-read your post. For some reason I thought you were suggesting to make sure "Open documents in Tabs" was selected, it was. Now I realize you were suggesting to turn it off! As another attemp to solve this problem I did de-select it today. Seemed to work for a good while. I was getting very excited, then, on the last set of images I had to do it displayed the same problem. But, it did go for quite a while without failing, and when it did I was thrashing about trying to make another app active. When loading documents like this - with "Open documents in Tabs" de-selected, Photoshop wants to put the loading images as the front-most window, no matter what other apps (Bridge, email, web etc) I click on in the dock. I think it is related to the bug you described effecting the "load files to stack" command.
Hopefully Adobe is looking at this - mind you, I have read reports of people having this problem in CS5! Looks like that was never resolved sadly.
I'll keep testing and post back.
I am looking to upgrade my video card to see if it's a video memory thing.
What is very weird though is the fact that this problem didn't present itself until after several weeks of working with this command with no problem. No additional apps installed, nothing changed. Why would it start happening only after a while?
Thanks again for your suggestion.

Mini bridge in CS6 Photoshop displaying grey thumbnails

Hello,
I"m on a MAC platform and working with CS6 Photoshop with minibridge (thumbnails preview at the bottom). When I preview the images, the thumbnails are all grey.
Does anyone has an answer to switch back to normal view.
Thanks!
sntm

Hello,
Thank you for replying to this discussion. The grey thumbnail preview occurs only in minibridge when I launched Photoshop CS6, not the case with the regular bridge. I can preview thumbnails with images in the regular bridge. Nonetheless, I've tried purging cache but to no avail, grey thumbnails still displaying in the mini bridge.
Thanks,
sntm

Photoshop CS6 file saved thumbnail makes file blank??

Hello,
I've recenlty seen this problem, the file i process in adobe photoshop CS6 comes blank and the previous thumbnail also disappear. I've checked the settings in finder and adobe photoshop cs6 but i didn't change anything there. Can any one help??
i need to submit wedding pictures but blank thumbnail makes me lost track of pictures. I'm attaching a picture below, the first row is what i've processed with adobe photoshop cs6 and the thumbnail disappeared.

I have to make a lot of color corrections because this is film taken from the early 40s to the early 50s. I tried doing it in Avid Studio, Pinnicle studeo and Corel Draws Video Studeo which is what Avid Studio became. None of them alow for the amount of correction allowed in Photoshop. I already owned Photoshop 5 so I upgraded to 6 to take advantage of its advances in video. The plan was to break the converted files up in smaller peices so that Photoshop could handle it and use Premier Pro perhaps to do other post production editing. The origional avi files are a movie about 1 hr and 15 min long and another one about 45 min long. The CODEX is MJPG in avi.

Does "all steps" include ensuring 'View > Show > 3D Lights' is enabled and 'View > Extras' is enabled when the Lighting Effects filter is active?

Layer transform lag solved by turning off layer thumbnails

I was looking into why layer transforms was lagging this morning and found some results in the pshop cs6 beta threads, one user suggested hiding the layers panel / swapping with channels. I did that and it was faster, then I thought maybe it was the layer thumbnails that was causing the problem, so I turned off the thumbnails and there was a noticable speedup in dragging grouped layers.
Before I did this thumbnails were set to crop to layer bounds, so I THINK something is not quite right there.
-ryder

Turning off thumbnails works to a point, but if you are moving massive amounts of layers photoshop cs6 will take a long pause. I am guessing the layer stack i'm moving around 60 layers nested (user interface elements)
The system is a dell M6600 / quadro 4000 / win7 (64-bit) / 32gb of ram, I just updated to the latest nvidia drivers today, made sure of it. (296.70)
The issue is similar/same as the one discussed in:

Saved gradient settings in PS CS6 64 bit go missing. . .

I'm working on Sepia Toning some images. I have several base starting settings that I need to choose from then modify. One of the tools I'm using is a Gradient Map layer and I use Photoshop CS6 Extended.
After saving them, my gradient settings in PS CS6 64 bit go missing when I work on a new image. What's up? Some old settings do appear and a series repeat over and over. I do have CS6 Photoshop Extended 64 and 32 bit installed, but use 64bit 95%. I do see a couple old saved settings. I also have Creative Suite 5.5 (InDesign and Illustrator, no Photoshop 5.5) installed.
Thanks for any help!
Wayne

The presets should be saved in your user directory, but sometimes when you save a preset, it gets saved in the last place you saved a file. I'd do a search for .gnd files on your system and see where they all are. In Windows, your preset gradients should be in:
C:\Users\User_name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Presets\Gradients

CS6 Photoshop install error

I have CS5 Master on my computer.
I downloaded CS6 Photoshop beta. After downloading, I clicked on set-up.exe in the WINZIP folder.
I get the following error: Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file. Please download Adobe Support Advisor
to detect the problem.
I downloaded the support advisor but it came up with no problem.
I have downloaded it 2x with the same error message when trying to install.
What else can I try?

Here is the post I was trying to recall.
Use a different unzipping application. If I remember correctly, some users were having issues with WinZip. They tried WinRar, and it solved their issue.

Wrong Layer Thumbnail Aspect Ratio

In Photoshop CS5
'Clip Thumbnails to Layer Bounds' is checked
I have an Illustrator CS5 Smart Object, with a simple square shape,
but, the layer thumbnail in Photoshop layers panel may show a rectangle instead of the square shape.
This behavior is inconsistent so I'm assuming it's a bug.
Can the thumbnail cache be flushed somehow so it's regenerated correctly?
Is there something to avoid doing to prevent this?

I would post that one on the PowerBook forum, but I suspect that you may have reached a limit of a 5 year old software that predates HD tv.

Scale Photoshop layer using AppleScript

Obviously, this is a Mac PS issue.
I am trying to script scaling a Photoshop layer (a smart object layer) to a specified percentage that I calculate from a layout in InDesign.
However, I am stumped on the syntax I should use to actually get the layer to resize, or perhaps I don't know how to call out the layer properly.
Here is my code (it is very simple at this point in time:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"
          set mySelect to selection
--error trap to make sure I have graphic content selected
          tell active spread of active window
                    set thisBox to item 1 of mySelect
                    set HScale to the absolute horizontal scale of thisBox
          end tell
end tell
myScaleConversion(HScale)
set PSScaled to result as real
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS6"
          set thisLayer to current layer of current document
          set scaleSet to {horizontal scale:PSScaled, vertical scale:PSScaled, anchor:"top left"}
scale current layer of current document with scaleSet
end tell
on myScaleConversion(HScale)
          set ScaleRatio to 2.5 as real
          set PSScale to (ScaleRatio * HScale)
          return PSScale
end myScaleConversion
I would appreciate any help with this. I run this script and no error messages occur, but then again, nothing happens to the Photoshop layer I have targeted.

There are 2 things I see that are not right… top right should a compiled word pair from the apps dictionary… You have it as string…
Now anchor should be anchor position but I can't get this to compile inside your list… hum… if I take it out it works just fine…
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5"
activate
          set mySelect to selection
--error trap to make sure I have graphic content selected
          tell active spread of active window
                    set thisBox to item 1 of mySelect
                    set HScale to the absolute horizontal scale of thisBox
          end tell
end tell
myScaleConversion(HScale)
set PSScaled to result as real
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS5"
activate
          set thisLayer to current layer of current document
--set scaleSet to {horizontal scale:PSScaled, vertical scale:PSScaled, anchor position:top left}
scale current layer of current document ¬
horizontal scale PSScaled ¬
vertical scale PSScaled ¬
anchor position top left
end tell
on myScaleConversion(HScale)
          set ScaleRatio to 2.5 as real
          set PSScale to (ScaleRatio * HScale)
          return PSScale
end myScaleConversion

Background layer thumbnail not appearing

When I open an image in photoshop (from camera raw), the image appears in the center screen, but in the "Layers" panel, the thumbnail in the background layer does not show the image. Instead, it shows an icon that appears to be the "brush tool" inside a square. I cannot change it to the opened image, very frustrating and, probably, very simple, but I cannot find the solution. Please help. Thank you, HONDO1717

Thanks for the screenshots, now I'm think I see what's going on.
So if I understand correctly, you open an raw image from Adobe Camera Raw and you expect to see a thumbnail in the Layers panel. Normally that's how it works for me.
The brush icon that you see in the Layers panel means that layer thumbnails are turned off. Here's how to turn them on in your Mac:
In the Layers Panel Control-click the blank space under the first layer and choose Small, Medium, or Large thumbnails from the context menu that appears.
You should then have a thumbnail of your opened file.

Layer thumbnails

I was watching a J. Kost flash turorial and she selected the option to change the size of layer thumbnails and the options showed samples next to the size selection circles. When I went to change the size of my layer thumbnails all I saw were selection circles and no size sample pictures next to them. Is that a PC vs Mac thing or is something missing from my version of CS4? I believe I saw thumbnail sample sizes in CS3.
Don

Hi Don,
You are hitting a known Win only issue with certain types of plug-ins. We are working with 3rd party plug-in developers to try and resolve the non-displaying icons.
The workaround at present is to select Help> About Plug-in> NIK (3rd party vendor plug-in). [If you have multiple plug-ins installed you may have to go thru all of them]. Just bringing the About box and dismissing it clears things up for the session. Unfortunately, it only works for that session and must be repeated for each launch of Ps.
regards,
steve

Layer Thumbnail Preview Problems CS4

I recently started having an issue with the layer thumbnails. In the past, when I would create a new shape (with the rectangle tool for instance) the layer thumbnail preview would look like the first image I've inserted. Now when I create a new shape with the same tool (in a new file) I get a layer thumbnail preview like the second image. All the panel options are the same, so it isn't the thumbnail size setting under panel options. I prefer the thumbnail preview from image 1. I am creating documents that many people will be using (most have basic photoshop skills) so the preview from image 1 is much easier to use and understand. Any help with this situation would be much appreciated, as I cannot figure out what back end setting has changed?

Thanks! They are exactly the same in every way. I think I've figured it out. It seems the layer preview is based on the size of the file or document. For instance, the problem started when I created a business card file sized at 3.75" wide by 2.25" high. Don't know what the magic number is, but when I created a file sized at 5" by 5" square, the layer thumbnail preview looks the way I want it to (image 1). It's strange, but it looks like I'm going to have to live with it when creating file sizes like this...
