How can I make Finder show thumbnail-sized photos?

I am running OS 10.60 on a Macbook Air. I remember on the Powerbook G4 OS 10.39 I was able to see small thumbnail-sized pictures in the Finder window when I clicked on a photo. I could even run small-sized movies in the Finder window when I clicked on them.
Now I have to wait for Preview to show the picture and it takes a long time. When I am going through a folder full of hundreds of photos to select certain ones it takes forever to go through them all.
How can I get the pictures to show up as thumbnail-sized pictures in Finder?

In the Finder, View menu, show View Options, show icon preview.
For video previews, the minimum icon size is 64 x 64.
There is also always a preview column in column view.
You can use Coverflow view to go through a folder full of image files.
You can Quicklook the image files. Select one and hit space bar. You can navigate through the folder with arrow keys or tab and the Quicklook will change to whatever image is selected.

  • How can I make Spotlight show the file path

    How can I make Spotlight show the file path in the Spotlight menu for selected file?

    Via Finder certainly, but not in the menu.  You can view the file path in the Spotlight search results display by pressing the ⌘ key (while hovering over a file in the results), though.  The path will display at the bottom of the Quick Look output, or cycle through that location.

  • How can I make LR show ALL my subfolders?

    I have LR 5.3. I have an external drive with a master folder ("all my photos") within which are multple subfolders. When I enter LR in Library view, I only see the folders that have had images imported into LR. I want to move some of hte photos I have imported to some of the other folders,but those other folders do not appear. I have tried "show parent folder" and then expanding it, but that does not help. The folder I *WANT* to move these photos TO, is BELOW the folder that has the photos. Here's my structure:
    all my photosfamily
    birthdays2013-new
    holidays
    I have imported into birthdays (2013-new) and now I want to MOVE that folder to holidays, but the holidays folder does not show up in LR. I have tried putting photos directly into holidays, doing an import+"uncheck all" but the import button then goes gray, so I can't continue the null-import.
    How can I get "holidays" to appear without importing anything (I actually have DOZENS of such folders I want to appear).
    Hoping for a clue,
    DJ

    Yes, it sounds workable, but you can do one export of an entire folder, or an entire collection, instead of exporting each photo individually. Are you aware that you don't have to export every photo that you edit? You export only when needed for some non-Lightroom purpose; so for example, if you have edited 100 photos, and then you decide that you want 25 for a slideshow in JAlbum, then you would only export those 25.
    You can have photos exported to the same folder as the original, this is an option in the Export dialog section named Export Location. You can assign custom names using the File Naming section of the Export Dialog box, so you aren't overwriting your original, and you can easily tell which one is the export.
    When I see "collections" in the panels, I don't see the folders the photos came from. Maybe I'm not looking inthe right place.
    Collections only exist in Lightroom. They do not exist in operating system folders. If you have a collection of photos that come from many different imported folders, then the idea of keeping the exported photos in the same folder as the original destroys the idea of keeping the photos from the collection together.
    This brings up the concept of differentiating your "organization" from your "folders". These are two separate concepts in Lightroom, even though they might have been the same thing in PS and Bridge. Your organization of photos (keywords, collections) is always kept in Lightroom and can be independent of how the photos exist in folders in your operating system. In this example, where you want a collection of photos from JAlbum, I see no particular issue with keeping the collection in Lightroom, and exporting to a specific folder (not the same folder as the original folders) for JAlbum. Now, I understand you are going to say ... hey wait, I want the export and original together ... yes, they are together in Lightroom, where your organization exists, even if they are not together in folders. If you force yourself to continue to use folders as the way to organize, and you force yourself to stick with the old idea of keeping export and original together, then you lose the benefit of some of Lightroom's best features; you need to adapt and use new methods and throw out your old ideas about the way photos should be organized.
    My opinion ... all organizing should be done in Lightroom, and not via folders. The only time a folder should be used is at import (the photos have to go somewhere, I use folder names based on capture date) and at export when the photos are needed for some non-Lightroom purpose (the photos have to go somewhere, you can choose a meaningful folder name). Other than that, I do not use folders for any purpose.

  • em /em tag shows as bold not as italics in Firefox. But it shows as italics in Internet Explorer. It also shows as Italics in Dreamweaver. Why is that? How can I make Firefox show em /em as italics? Thank you. Jeffrey Feng yfeng@whittier.edu

    <em></em> tag shows as bold in Firefox, but it shows as italics in Internet Explorer. It also shows as italics in Dreamweaver and Contribute. Since our web designers use Dreaweaver and Contribute to create web pages, texts are formatted as italics when they use <em></em> tag, but when the end user browses the web using Firefox, they see bold text instead of italics. How can we remedy this problem with Firefox without changing hundreds of pages which contain <em></em>?
    Thank you.

  • How can I make ringtones show in my Tones tab rather than the Music tab?

    I just bought my first iPhone 4 and uploaded a bunch of music ringtone files to iTunes and changed the default preference to display the Tones tab. However, the ringtones all got added to the Music tab rather than the Tones tab. I have a number of questions:
    I'm used to other phones where any music file can be set as a ringtone for a particular contact. Is this the case for iPhones too?
    If so, how can I set a ringtone for a contact from these music files?
    If not, how can I get the ringtones to appear in the Tones tab? I assume that I would have to do that to sync ringtones to my iPhone ringtone "folder".
    Is there another alternative? I read on the forum something about dragging ringtone files to the iPhone. Not sure I understood that! Does this mean I can drag a music file from the Music tab to the iPhone icon and have that file end up in the iPhone ringtone "folder"? If it ends up in the Music "folder", how do I access it to set it as a contact ringtone?
    Thank you for any light you can shed on this.

    It would be good if this was made a user-defined Option (Tools -> Options -> Tabs) in the next update of Firefox rather than having to install an add-on. I currently keep Firefox open to view my Accuweather.com add-on running or because I know that I will be returning to Firefox in short order. (I do close Firefox if I have visited a sensitive or secure site to ensure better security.) Every time I want to go to a bookmark, I must open a new "(Untitled)" tab before selecting my bookmark using the keyboard (I'm a dedicated keystroker; it's much faster for me). This way, when I close the website, I have an "(Untitled)" tab displaying so that Firefox doesn't close. Why can't I set an Option parameter that will result in me not having to go through this? Alternatively, allow users to set an option to keep Firefox loaded and open in the event only one tab is open and maybe if only one Firefox application window is running (I avoid having more than one Firefox window open as much as possible). I've addressed this last issue in the past but have seen no change when one closes the last tab in a Firefox window. As general practice, I would think that Firefox would run better if options, like I have described above, were part of the Firefox application code and not given to needing an add-on which may cause instability in Firefox as they have in the past, even with author verification and certification.

    Trying to connect to a wifi connection which uses WPA-EAP security, with a username and password system (at work and I cannot change these settings).

  • When an album has multiple artist how can you make them show up on an iPod Touch 4G? I can find an artist using the search function but they don't show up in the artist view on my iPod. iTunes shows them OK when you sort by artist.

    Tech support seemed to understand the question but had no answer. Why would an album with only one artist show the artist but an album with multiple artist not show any of them. The album art show various in iTunes. That makes sense but on my iPod I would expect to see all artists.

    Wish I did. I tried the group function but that didn't help in iTunes. The search function is the best I came up with. I can answer the question do you have susch and such artist. But I can't browse for an artist I don't remember exactly or have misspelled. Fortunately I don't think I've bought anything from iTunes that i already had. If you can't see an artist it's possible you think you don't have something you actually do have. Sorry, still hoping for a better work around or better yet a fix.
