File icons not displaying in dock folders

I'm having trouble seeing File icons in the folders added to the dock in Lion. For example I am used to seeing a file icon that isa preview of the file e.g. for a pdf the icon would show the content of that pdf. For many files (but not all) I just see a black box with a white dashed line around it (see image).Eventually these icons may refresh and display properly and if I open the folder in finder the icon is correct but not in stacks. It's not a file type specific issue because in the attached image some jpegs are displaying other are not. Any advice?

Solved.
Reset the p-ram.

Some PDF files are not displayed in Bridge

Hello,
here is the problem: I use Adobe Bridge CS2 to browse my large collection of PDF files, and unfortunately some files are not displayed in the Filmstrip View mode; instead a generic icon is shown (bridge1.png). Most PDF files, however, are displayed correctly (bridge2.png). Is this the problem of Bridge or of certain PDF files, and how should I fix them to make them being displayed by Bridge?
Thanks.

In fact, all files have similar type of content (research papers). However, I found out that all files which are not displayed are "protected" by the publisher such that they only can be viewed and printed, but not modified or disassembled. Apparently, this causes the problem with Bridge not displaying them. It's a pity that Bridge cannot handle them...
Thanks for the help, though.

In FireFox 4.0, PDF files will not display

After updating to 4.0, PDF files will not display in the browser window as before. All I get is blank screen. Everything works fine in IE9. I have updated all the plug-ins, including Adobe Acrobat. Also have enable Display PDF in browser in Acrobat Reader.

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
* Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
* Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
* Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
* Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
* Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
* If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Flash Files Will Not Display in Dreamweaver

Flash files will not display in Dreamweaver or in any
browser. If I insert a Flash button, text or other file, when I hit
the "play" button the flash place holder disapears, and the Flash
file never displays. In the Property Inspector, the file is always
"undefined" even when I save the file to my root folder with a
name. When I hit the "Edit" button, I get the message that the file
could not be found on my local disk. It's like Dreamweaver fails to
create or place a Flash file. Help please!

You will have to rename the hard drive for dreamweaver to
work properly.
The ' is causing dw to not find the path.
other symptoms would be dw nagging that the "homepage" is not
within the
local site folder so it can't build a sitemap.

CF8 - pdf files do not display in a browser

We are setting up the multiple instance capability using jrn4 with cf8,
with apache 2.x on Redhat linux 5.X.
For the when browsing to the main cfusion instance I can see pdf files
but if I go to the document root of an instance, pdf files are not displayed.
Infact it hoses whichever browser you are using.
I can see cfm, txt, html files.
Anyone have an idea what is happening?

I tried your recommendation of turning off coldfusion and it
appears the problem of not being able to display
a pdf file has nothing to do with coldfusion or with apache.
The problem appears to be how we are mounting the documentroot on a linux server
from a windows file server using a cifs mount.
It seems to handle text files properly but not pdf files (it may have problems
with other types of files), perhaps it is an issue with end of line or end of
file which is confusing things.
This is the mount command we are using
//win_file_server/xyz /data/xyz cifs user,ro,credentials=credentials,uid=48,gid=48,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755
The credentials file contains
username=some_name
password=xxxxxxxx
uid=apache
gid=apache
filemode=0660
dirmode=0770
nosuid
nosetuids
It works file if the documentroot is on a mounted unix file system, but not windows.
Does anyone know if mounting a windows file system can work properly?
(Perhaps we are missing some additional settings).

In Mac OS X Yosemite, Finder / Favorites / All My Files, "Today" files are not displayed.

After upgrading MacBook Pro to OS X Yosemite, "Today" files are not displayed in Finder / Favorites / All My Files. It worked prior to the upgrade.

After further investigation, it is not the displaying of "Today" files that is the issue. It appears that Finder / Favorites / All My Files is not correctly finding & displaying files when using the View / Arrange By / Date Last Opened criteria. If I switch the criteria to / Date Modified, it finds & displays the file correctly. See attached screen shots. (It is possible that this problem existed before Yosemite, as I don't recall which criteria Finder was using before the upgrade.)

Wirless icon not displaying, but says I am connected to network

I am a new Iphone user, so I apologize is this a rookie questions. I believe I am connected to my house wireless connected as the name of my network is checked off when I go to settings and Wifi.
My question is, though, why is my icon not displaying on the top left corner? It displays when I am connected at work and everywhere else I was able to connect. Is there something in my settings that I may have checked?
And, does that mean I am not really connected wirelessly?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks, all. So, I just rebooted and there was no change.
Then, as SteveCWatkings recommended, I went into my settings page. I went into the properties page, and there isn't anything listed beside IP address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS, etc. They are all empty...
*UPDATE*
Okay, something just happened. AS I WAS RESPONDING, I was clicking on each of the fields (IP address, Subnet, etc to see if I could enter information since they were empty. And,when I got to DNS, it allowed me to type something in. Not knowing what to enter, I clicked back and it took me back to the Settings page. So, I clicked on my network again and when I tapped my network, all the fields were filled in, and the icon appeared.
So, now it appears to be connected. I don't know if it will remain connected, or if I had to tap something (DNS?) or if it was glitch, but it appears to be working now.
Thanks a ton!

Icons files will not displaying when running web-based forms locally

My icon files (jpgs) are not displaying from within Forms Developer 10g or when I run the web-based forms from within Developer. I have tried the following without success:
6.4 Deploy Icons for Forms Running on Web
Option One: For Running Web Based Forms from Within the Forms Builder in Oracle 10g Developer Suite
1) Copy all the icon image files (*.jpg) to the directory of <Oracle_10g_Developer_Suite_Installation_Root_Dir>\forms\j2ee\formsapp\formsweb\icons
2) Make sure to set imageBase=DocumentBase in the file < Oracle_10g_Developer_Suite_Installation_Root_Dir >\forms\server\formsweb.cfg.
3) Edit the < Oracle_10g_Developer_Suite_Installation_Root_Dir >\forms\java\oracle\forms\registry\Registry.dat file, specify the icon image file extension by modifying the following line:
default.icons.iconepath=icons/
default.icons.iconextension=jpg
Save this Registry.dat file.
4) Restart the OC4J Instance.
5) Launch the form from Forms Builder.
I just got a new laptop and am setting everything up again. I have everything setup the same way as on my old machine (same as above). It worked fine on my old computer but not on the new one.

PDF File Type Icon Not Displaying HELP!!!

Hey guys!
I have a quick question that I need resolved. Make sure you READ before you respond as people seem to be having trouble with this one.
Something happened on my system to where .pdf files aren't displaying the PDF file type image anymore. They're just displaying the Windows default non-associated file icon.
But the weird thing is that the .pdf file type IS associated with Adobe Acrobat, and when double clicked they DO open in Acrobat.
I checked inside of Acorbat.dll and the file type icon IS in there...so this is leading me to believe that something is messed up in the registry to where Windows doesn't know to link a .pdf with the icon inside of Acrobat.dll.
So my question is this...how do I RELINK the .pdf file type with the PDF file type icon located inside of Acrobat.dll???

Before you start editing the registry try the suggestions given in the FAQ:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bbc2da9
failing that try doing a repair of acrobat from the help menu.
If still no joy let us know.

File Icons Not Appearing in Finder

Over the years I have archived projects on CDs and DVDs. I have always worked on Macs. No PC involvement. I have been doing this since 1987. Over the past couple weeks I have noticed that the icons of files (not folders) on my older disks are not appearing. I am using the latest Mac OS 10.8.3 on a MacBook Pro. However, on a friend's older Mac Pro tower (Intel), running an older OS (10.6.8), the file icons do appear. Also, it seems that all folder icons do appear on both systems. I have searched the Internet for an answer. I have a lot of old files that I currently cannot seem to access because of this issue. Can anyone shed any light on this? I think it may be an OS issue.

Hi,
I was under the impression that the Disk Level info was the bit that had the problem.
I am not sure why I ended up with that thought as you clearly state it is contents type info such as tiffs and the like you cannot "see" for long.
The Site did help with that.
I dug out a old Mag CD with a game on in.
I do not suffer losing sight of any of the files no matter which view I adopt.
It lists the Mac OS Standard as the format and the Roman encoding your Video and pics show.
(Strangely it says it was Modified and the date is before the listed Modified dates of the files and folder it contains).
I don't have any self created disks from that time to test.
I am at a loss myself now.
Sometimes, as in my Pic, the Applications that were written for OS 9 (Classic era) and earlier have the no entry sign over them.
Other times the items will show a generic file icon as it has "lost" which app it belongs to. (Which the PRAM reset deals with)
Your files clearly show the icons of the apps that would normally open them.
Files or folders that are normally hidden don't get counted in Quick Look or other forms of veiwing the contents, such as the lower bar in my pic.
It would appear the OS is reading the Disk properly but then deciding that it is not going to display all of it.
I tried viewing the files on my drive if different views - iCon and Cover Flow for certain - but did not notice any difference in what was presented.
If you have the Disk Open and in the Finder > View Menu > Show View Options and then choose Show Icon Preview do you get to see the tiff files at all ?
I would also try the Size change in the Cover Flow view just to see if it is something about the icon data that is "missing" or being mis-read.
I am clutching at straws at this point.

Menu toolbar icons not displayed in colour when deployed on the Web

Hello!
We are developing an application using Forms6i on Windows NT.
Our problem is that menu toolbar icons are not displayed in colour when the application is deployed on the Web using lookAndFeel = generic. This is the case both when using Microsoft IE5 and Netscape 4.5. When lookAndFeel = oracle, however, the icons are displayed in colour.
The icons are stored as *.gif files in the same directory as the application *.html file. It does not help to create a virtual path /web_icons/ in the www listener and edit the parameter default.icons.iconpath in the file Registry.dat.
When running the application as client/server, the menu toolbar icons are displayed in colour as expected.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Hi,
I got the same problem and I didn't figure out, how to solve this problem.
But did you try to printout the form anyway? I guess you will see the icons on the printout, won't you?
