Getting my thumbnails back

Hello. Ever since upgrading to Aperture 2, the thumbnails to any exported image file say "JPEG" instead of being, well, a thumbnail image. This has made grabbing photos at a glance very difficult since I don't work by file names. Any idea how to get my thumbnails back to their normal, visual selves?

Are you talking about files exported from Aperture viewed in the finder? Are you talking about thumbnails inside Aperture? Previews in the image browser?

my workaround is to use pinki:

  • How do I get the thumbnails back on a new tab page?

    I get a AVG Secure Search page instead of the thumbnail page now when I load a new tab. How do I get the thumbnails back? I don't have an gear icon on the page to switch it back. This happen after I did a reset of Firefox so that MapQuest would work again which it now does.
    What is interesting is that I get thumbnails if I open a second Firefox window and then click on a new tap page.
    I've install the searchreset addon with no luck. I've run Microsoft Safety Scanner and no problems have been identified.

    Bookmark and use this;
    Download the '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ Mozilla Search Reset]''' {web link}
    This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up
    and then resets your search preferences and home page
    to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This
    affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
    If you still have a problem, you may have add-ware on your system.
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

  • The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size.  How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with them?

    The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size.  How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with the photo files?

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running?  On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
    2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

  • I have CS5 and when I opened up a particular folder in Bridge, I see only a few thumbnails of my images.  The rest are this small blue icon.  How do I get my thumbnails back?

    In bridge on CS5 there is one folder I opened up today and in that folder I can only see a small percentage of thumbnail previews of the images.  The rest are this small blue icon.  How do I get my thumbnail previews back?  If I click on this icon it will open the image up okay in photoshop but I would like to see my thumbnail image to see what picture I am opening up.  Can anyone help?

    Well ... i purged my cache and the previews came back.  Thank you for looking.

  • New tabs open with a search site - I want to get my thumbnails back.

    When I open a new tab I get search.conduit.com/?ctid=CT3319612&octid=EB_ORIGINAL_CTID&SearchSource=69&CUI=&SSPV=&Lay=1&UM=4&UP=SP19543CEB-FDD0-4BED-9A1B-7C1CECC96C28

    I tried to change
    browser.newtab.url status: user set type: string value: search.conduit.com/?ctid=......

    Delete the user.js file in the profile folder.

  • I get a blank page when I open a new tab and would lie to have the thumbnails back - HOW?

    Firefox ver. 16.0.2
    Win 7
    I have tried the suggestions I find on the web.
    Your support page says:
    "The Firefox New Tab page shows pictures of the sites you visit frequently. Sometimes, some or all of these images are not displayed. We'll explain why that happens and how to get them back when it's possible."
    No I don't get any pictures at all when I open a new tab - It's blank, but I click on the following link:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thumbnails-on-new-tab-page-are-missing
    I click on the link to follow instructions and end up here:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
    I click on this link: "The images of my top sites are gone - how do I get them back?"

    and end up here:
    See The thumbnails on the new tab page are missing - how to get them back.
    I click on the link for information and end up..... were I started.
    So - Could someone be nice and explain how I get the thumbnails back?!
    Because I refuse to use IE, but considering Opera..... Please advice!

    You can change this in Firefox's about:config preferences editor.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
    ''(i) Page thumbnails (default)''
    about:newtab
    ''(ii) Blank tab''
    about:blank
    ''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
    about:home
    ''(iv) Any other page''
    full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

         Hi Frank.
         I have just had jb Atlanta's problem while adjusting the contrast on a photo. I was creating a slideshow at the time. After a lot of reading up I was about to give up when I tried restoring the file to its original settings as you suggested. Bingo!
         However, that would only work for me, if I restored the settings while in the slideshow. All data had 'disappeared' when I attempted to open the photo in its original project folder.
         Hope this is of help. Many thanks.

  • How can I get Thumbnails back in the file View Menu?

    My computer died and I had to re-install CS6.  I had originally installed it to an external hard drive expecting that I could just hook up a new computer when the time came and everything would work as before.   Not to be.   I contacted Adobe and got the program re-installed.  Now, when I open a file, I am unable to change the view in the View Menu to 'thumbnail' because 'thumbnail' is no longer an option.  How can I get that option back?
    Thank you.

    Are you talking about in the File>Open dialog in photoshop cs6?
    Could you post screenshot of what you see?
    Windows 7 doesn't have a thumbnail option as windows xp, but you should be able to at least see the jpeg thumbnails without any third party programs.
    If you pick Tiles or one of the three Icon options at the top, your not able to see the jpeg thumbnails?

    Adobe Creative Cloud

    Photoshop CC needs at least OSX 10.7-10.9
    You may be able to install and run it on 10.6.8, but as I understand it the rules for generating thumbnails has changed with Apple and CC writes them to suit the required OSX.
    Photoshop CS6 will always give you image thumbnails but CC and CC 2014 have had thumbnails generated differently for the required OSX.
    You will have to upgrade to 10.7,10.8, or 10.9

    You have likely dragged the size of the filmstrip thumbnails to a small size that prevents Lightroom from displaying the badges. Using your mouse, mouse over the top line of the filmstrip and then drag it supports to increase the size.

  • I recently gave my old iPhone to my nephew, he switched it to his phone account, but somehow I now have his contacts on my new iPhone 5. When I look at my iCloud account, it lists his contacts. Is there any way for me to get my contacts back?

    I recently gave my old iPhone to my nephew, I did not clear out my old phone before I gave it to him, when he transferred to his account, he had my iCloud info on the phone, and it updated the contacts on my new iPhone 5 to his contacts. Is there any way for me to get my contacts back?

    This is caused by using the same iCloud account on both phones.  When you do this any data you sync with the shared iCloud account such as contacts is merged and will appear on all devices connected to the account.  To fix this you both need to have separate iCloud accounts (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores). 
    Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (i.e., deleting your nephew's data from your account, and vice versa).
    As for recovering your lost contacts, if they aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, you will have to recover them from a backup source.  You could try restoring to your last backup but this doesn't always work for contacts.  (Chances are you nephew deleted your contacts from his phone, not realizing it would also delete them from yours.)

    I have lost my photo albums on my iPad Although the photos are still there. How do I get the albums back?, I have lost my photo albums on my iPad Although the photos are still there. How do I get the albums back?

    It's version iPhoto '11. I sent the photos to the trash from in the resident iPhoto application, but not to the iPhoto trash, but the OS's trash in the bottom right task bar (Finder Trash).
    Realizing what I had done, I dragged the picture folder back into the "Pictures" folder under my name in the Finder. I also dragged the iPhoto Library file back, but it said a new one had been created... I still attempted to replace the new with old iPhoto Library file.
    The pictures are back and i can see the album names under events. The problem is that the album covers, nor the pictures themselves show up as thumbnails like they did before... they only show when you individually click on the photo to bring it into full view. I only see a grey background where the thumbnail was.
    Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

  • Elements 12 organiser has changed all raw files to jpeg - how do I get raw files back?

    Cannot edit raw files as Elements (12) seems to have changed them all to jpegs - can anyone let me know how to get raw files back?

    Hello Jim,
    Many thanks for your response.  Wondering if we did something in Elements preferences?  Usually, when thumbnails are opened in the editor, it’s a raw file to work on.  However, all the thumbnails, when opened in the editor, are all of a sudden opening as jpegs …. not raw.  o it looks as though all the raw files are now jpegs, and we don’t know how to get them back.
    Any help you can offer will be gratefully received, as my husband works on his photos in Elements and it’s driven him mad!
    Many thanks & regards.

  • HDD failure, I'd like to know how to get Windows 7 back on it.

    Hello everyone, I've had a HDD issue lately, but before I move on to describe my issue, here are the specs of my notebook:
    HP Pavilion dv6-3264ca
    AMD Triple-Core CPU 2.2 Ghz
    6GB RAM
    128MB ATI Graphic Card
    750GB Toshiba HDD
    Windows 7 64-bit
    The issue:
    Recently I've had a very unfortunate HDD failure. The recovery partition wouldn't even load. I tried booting my notebook on Linux with the HDD still attached, and it wouldn't read. I extracted the HDD and placed it in an HDD-enclosuer and it still wouldn't load on Windows XP or Vista or 7. It would however read in the device manager of Windows and also in the BIOS.
    I needed to extract some high-priority data from there so I managed to retrieve all my data safely through a data recovery service, but now the drive is rendered useless. I was told a low-level format might be able to help it be usable again, and if that were to happen, the recovery partition would then be removed in the process. 
    In addition to that, I would like to install Windows 7 64-bit onto the drive, but the notebook box did not come with an installation CD, which is quite frustrating. Is there any way HP can let me download Windows 7 through some warranty service?
    I have a one-year warranty on my laptop.
    So in closing, I would like to know if I can get Windows 7 back onto my HDD for free, or if I need to go about buying Windows 7 again.
    Any advice from you kind folks?
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Here are Two options.
    1.  If you have ( or can borrow ) a retail Windows 7 installation disc that is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie if your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the exact retail version you would need.
    If you don't have access to a retail disc, you can create an installation disc yourself - just download the correct Disc Image from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD.
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/download-windows-7-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit-direct-download-link...
    Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the underside of your notebook when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.
    http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/how-to-activate-windows-7-by-phone.aspx
    Any additional drivers you may need can be found Here.
    2.  You can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below - these cost around $30 if you live in the US.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00810334&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en
    If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.
    If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
    If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
