Effects preview not working

I am no longer able to preview effects in the search or browser window. I tried trashing preferences but this did not resolve the problem. Any ideas?
I must say I am very disappointed in Apple for releasing this software when it was clearly not ready. Updates have been few and far between.
I wish Apple would concentrate a bit more on its pro application and a little less on making telephones for rich teenagers.
And while I am gripping, why is it often difficult to access these forums? One would think a computer company would have a website that actually functioned.

I couldn't agree with you more. This version of Soundtrack is so buggy I can't use it at all. I also have problems with previewing filters and it's very inconsistent some track preview them and some don't. My nightmare involves trying to save an aiff. Basically with any filter applied I get a horrible distortion and the files are unusable. I hope they fix this soon - I'm running totally out of patience.

  • Effects Panel not working correctly

    I have Windows 7 64 bit, Home Premium and using PSE9.  When I open PSE in Full Edit and go to  the Effects Panel, the Filters work just fine, but the Layer Styles will not open (or show anything) and the Photo Effects will not open ( or show anything).  I did rename the MediaDatabase.db3 file as MediaDatabase.old, following instructions given in a PSE9 class I am taking....but have done nothing else with that file, and then is now a new MediaDatabase.db3 file under the "old" listing....so two files there.
    I have no idea what to do to correct this....and I did close everything and close PSE and also my PC...let them rest a while, and then restarted the PC and reopened PSE9, and still the Layer Styles and Photo effects did not work.  I hope someone can understand my problem and help....in simple "baby steps".  Thanks

    Should I delete the file named mediaDatabase.old?  I am a senior
    "dummie"  and just want to be sure what you are telling me.
    I did delete the editor's pref files....I understand that one.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Preview not working in 10.6

    Preview not working in 10.6. Not able to open multiple JPG files. No problem in 10.5.7.
    Any solution?

    I've been following this thread and several others about this same issue with interest. Today I went to Astronomy Picture of the Day to take a look at the pix for August and downloaded eight of them. Whether it matters or not, I made a folder on my Desktop, then dragged the full picture from its "picture only" page into the folder. After I finished I opened the folder, did Command-A and double clicked the group. All eight opened in Preview and I used the down arrow to move from one to the next.
    I did an upgrade install of Snow Leopard on a VERY clean install of Leopard (pretty much no third party anything had been added, certainly no haxies, Contextual Menu items, Input Managers, menu bar extras, and only a limited number of third party applications).
    So unfortunately it looks like I can't investigate this issue since I can't reproduce it. Haven't seen anything in the discussions of the issue so far that lead me any theory about why some people have it and some, including me, don't.

  • Preview not working!!! Blank document appears!

    My Preview stopped working! I downloaded a few PDF documents, thinking that Preview would automatically launch and open the files. Preview did launch, however, all I saw were blank white documents, nothing on them.
    Next thing I did was open my Adobe Reader application and tried to read the PDF documents. Yes, it worked. I was able to see the documents.
    But why is Preview not working correctly? What is happening?

    Hi, Makiko. The version of Preview that came with Panther is old, and some of the features that newer PDF-creation software can build into PDF files may not be supported by it. In other words, your Preview application became static several years ago, while the PDF file format has continued to evolve. Your Preview can probably still open all the other file formats that it opened when it was new, but you may want to set things up so that all PDF files are handled by Adobe Reader instead. To do that, click once on any PDF file in the Finder and choose Get Info from the File menu. In the "Open with" section of the Get Info window, choose Adobe Reader from the drop-down menu, then click the Change All button. Close the Get Info window. Now all PDFs that you double-click will open in Adobe Reader.
    Note that at present, the latest version of Adobe Reader that works in Panther is 7.1.0. If you have an earlier version, you may want to update it.

  • Preview Not Working - pls helpp..

    Hi there,
    I'm running Lion on my Macbook Pro and have a problem with Preview not working.
    It seems to have almost jammed and has a document that I don't think I even have anymore in it's title bar.
    The timeout / loading wheels continues to spin and I have to Force Quit.
    I have tried deleting the com.apple.Preview.plist - but this hasn't done anything.
    Any ideas & help greatly appreciated.

    To add to this. When I open it (preview) the file that it looks like it's opening is titled 'ai.icns'. I've got no idea what this was but have seen that it's a large graphics folder. I very possibly clicked on it whilst doing some work the other day and went to shut it down quickly and now it looks like it's in a state of opening-up but without actually getting anywhere..

  • Creative Console effects do not work

    $Creative Console effects do not work@ Hi,
    I have an Audigy SE with latest drivers, windows 7 64, and I'm using headphones
    When accessing the Creative Console Launcher, the volume control, eax, everything has no effect on my sound, and it is clearly labeled 'headphones' at the top.
    If I go to the Audio Control Panel, it has EAX functions that DO work, though, there are no bass adjusting functions etc.
    Clearly, the EAX etc works, though it and the other features do not work in the Console Launcher, so I hope there is a way to fix this~
    I even tried installing <a rel="nofollow" href="http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/SB-P7X-Series-Support-Pack-2-0-07-3-2009-AudigySE-Value-LS/td-p/53329]daniel's[/url] driver, still the same issue.

  • External monitor preview not working in CS5

    Well its taken almost a month to get my Production premium suite CS5 working (exit code 7 install error) I finally reinstalled win7 pro after dicking with adobe tech support for weeks (they did try to be helpful and polite) and that "cured" the install problem so now I see that the external monitor preview still dosent work as in CS4....anyone know what gives? mine dosent work even if I set to external audio either. After effects-encore and Photoshop external firewire previews all work fine so I know its a bug in Premiere...anyone logged this yet?.On a VERY positive note I absolutely love the "solidity" of Premiere ....I invested in a Quadro fx3800 and well its a beautiful thing really.....is it odd to be in love with hardware and software
    cheers y'all
    steve

    this is a well known limitation of the current CUDA drivers. Adobe is hard at work with Nvidia to solve this, but the work around is to set MPE to software in your project settings. It has high priority AFAIK.
    Wow thanks Harm that was the workaround for now ....brilliant

  • Video previews not working in iTunes

    Hi all,
    I've seen this posted a few different ways without any resolution to the problem so I thought I would give it a shot.
    Video previews are not working properly for me. When in the iTunes Store and I click on a "View Trailer" for a movie or preview for a music video, a pop-up window appears in iTunes with a white background. The audio will kick in but the video never starts. I am using iTunes 9.2 (61).
    Has anyone uncovered a solution to this?
    Thanks!

    Just to clean this unresolved issue up, seemingly the problem disappeared after upgrading to iTunes 9.2.1 (5).
    Thanks!

  • Acrobat Pro X PDF previewing not working in Windows 7 64-bit

    Greetings, all,
    The organization I work for recently purchased a volume license for Acrobat Pro X.  We uninstalled Adobe Reader from all of our machines and installed Acrobat Pro X on them.  After the move, the PDF preview handler stopped working.  People commonly link to the URL below, but it has not worked for us.  It appears it only works for the PDF preview handler packaged with Adobe Reader, not the one packaged with Acrobat Pro.
    http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/index.html
    Users are unable to preview PDFs in Windows Explorer and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007.  When attempting to preview in Windows Explorer, the following appears:
       This file can't be previewed.
    What can we do to get the preview handler working in Windows Explorer (Windows 7 64-bit) and Office Outlook 2007?
    Thanks in advance!

     OK. Then do you mean the thumbnails in Windows Explorer? I don't have a solution for that, but there have been several posts about the issue.
    Well, thumbnails in Explorer don't work either, but we're not concerned about it.  The preview pane is what we're worried about.  There is a button in the top-right that turns the pane on.  Previewing in Outlook does not work either.

  • Scan to preview not working properly

    Scanning to Preview recently stopped working properly.  Here are the issues:
    When I scan a new document to Preview, it doesn't open in Preview automatically like it once did.  I begin my scan by going to "system preferences" - "print-scan" - "open scanner". 
    When I click on the details section (where it says "no document loaded" above) it will open the preview window, however, the last scans made show up in the same .pdf document. 
    For example: I scan 1 page to Preview, then attach that page to an email and send it.  Done.  NEXT I scan a completely separate 2 page document the same way and when I open it up with Preview, the first (1 page scan previously made) document is added to the Preview document making it a 3 page document in error.  Any suggestions to fix this?
         I've uninstalled and reinstalled the HP officejet 8500 printer, and restarted my computer and it doesn't resolve it.

    The HP software is crap.  If is riddled through with problems and oversights.  But usually you can get things to work with enough perseverence. 
    1.  Per dturner608, you can change the mode from "document feeder" to flatbed.  I did this and found that it did work that way, but I also stumbled onto something: it was working on the document feeder as well, I just didn't know it.  When you close out of the scan (after it completes), go to Finder and look for your scan file (which is usually labeled "scan") and I think you will find it there.  So the scanner is scanning, saving, but not giving you any clue that it's doing so. 
    2.  There is yet another bug, which is the "one document" checkbox (it's not called exactly that), whose purpose is to make a multi-page scan into one document rather than separate pages.  Once you check that, it treats every scan from that point on like they're all one document.  Yes, incredibly that's true.  On my Mac at least, it doesn't reset itself to "zero" with every new multi-page scan.  It thinks the new scan is a continuation of the last one.  The only way I found is to trick it by doing a multi-page scan (as one document), unchecking the box and running a single page scan through that I don't intend to use, and then re-checking the box for the next multi-page scan.  That seems to tell the software that you are starting a brand new multi-page scan.
    3.  Somewhere in the midst of fiddling through the above, the HP driver decided that Preview should work again.  So all of a sudden it's working - go figure.  [But I couldn't "save as".]  Like I said - their software is crap.  I've had nothing but problems with HP printer driver software.  ....Latest thing is it tells me that faxes did not go through and printing out a "fax failed" status, when in fact they did go through.  I didn't discover that until I called the recipient.  ....Spent a good half hour trying to figure out why it wasn't going through - but it was.   Nice.
