How can I see preview images of STN files in CS4?

I save many of my art files as STN (Genuine Fractals) files so I can print on demand at various sizes. I used to be able to see tiny preview images of these files; now, using CS4 32-bit or 64-bit with Windows 7 64-bit OS, all I see in my STN folder is little blank page icons - no images. I have descriptive filenames, but still - it would REALLY help to be able to quickly scan the images for the one I want to open in PhotoShop. I used to be able to see these preview STN images. Help??

Theoretically, to see Sting format (.stn) thumbnails, you'd have to get a codec from the OnOne software people and install it into Windows Explorer as a shell extension.  This has nothing to do with Photoshop.
I know of no such codec available, at least not for .x64 systems (64 bit Explorer).  I haven't seen .stn thumbnails for a long time, and I currently have their Perfect Resize 7 product.
But it seems to me that a long ago when I used a 32 bit OS there was a time that I could see .stn thumbnails.  Perhaps they once provided a 32 bit codec with their product, or I had a 3rd party codec that understood the format.
It would be a great question to pose to OnOne Software.  If you do, please report back here what they say.

    There are a number of third party solutions for this.  I just use Bridge, so can't recommend one in particular.

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Can't see preview images

    I went in to do some general editing today and I cannot see any of my images within Aperture 3. When I scroll over the projects to the left-hand side of my screen the number of Versions which are supposed to be within each project are shown, but the actual image previews are not...
    I didn't make any setting changes, etc. since the last time I was in Aperture when everything was working fine.
    Any ideas on how to make these preview images viewable again, without rebuilding my entire library?
    Thank.

    Does this persist after closing and relaunching Aperture?
    If you have to force quit Aperture, you might have to open it, close it successfully (without intervention), and open it again.
    This happens to me regularly, but once I get Aperture to close properly, it goes away.

  • How can I load preview images into an extra file?

    Hi,
    I've got a question concerning those preview images. I wrote a plugin which uses the actual paths of the photos in the catalog an stores those paths of each photo into a log file. Then an external program has access to that file for further handling. So now I would like to use preview photos instead of the raw images. First, because the user might want to use the picture he/she edited with Lightroom; And then because of the size.Processing a preview image of level 5 would be more efficient than the original photo.
    So how can I get those preview photos? And more important: is it possible to store them in an extra file in a jpg format for instance, so that an external program can make use of them?

    Look at source code in PreviewExporter plugin.

  • How can i see the images that i've already sent in bbm with the description that i did??

    Hello!, i can't see the description of the images that i've already sent by bbm. Is any way to see that???. Any app for that??. Please i need help!

    If you mean your iCloud backup, you can't see the individual files contained in the backup.  You can only access the data in the backup by restoring it to your device.
    You can see categories of data stored in your iCloud account by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage.  You can see the actual data by looking in the apps on your device that are syncing data with iCloud (contacts, calendars, notes, etc.).  You can also see some of this data by going to icloud.com from your comptuer.

  • How can I see full images on desktop?

    Photo album images are not shown full image, no matter what i choose in Sys. Prefs: "center" , "tile", "stretch to fill screen" etc. they cut off much of image to fill screen. Can I fix this problem?

    Hi,
    You can probably do a little better. Open iPhoto:
    Select the image > next use Crop Tool and use the Constrain 'display' setting > then crop > set as desktop > you will have to go back to System Preferences and play around with settings to get best fit...

  • How can I see who has accessed my files?

    I was recently on an open network and saw that a few of my files had been accessed. Is there a way I can see who?

    Well, it sounds like you have security problems, but the short answer to your original question is no, it's not possible to tell who accessed the files. Disable file sharing unless you really need it. If you do need it, disable guest access. When you're on an untrusted network, definitely disable it, or activate the Firewall and block all incoming connections.

  • How can I batch resize images to a file size of 1 meg?

    I'm not the most technically literate mac user and would gratefully receive any help please.
    I have been asked to reduce lots of images of various large file sizes and dimensions to 1 meg. I am using Photoshop CS4 and am aware of the 'Image Processor' function under 'scripts' unfortunately it only allows me to adjust the image dimensions, but I need to reduce the file size so that every image is 1 meg and at 300 dpi, it doesn't matter about the image dimensions.
    Thanks so much!
    Jess

    You omitted to name the file format you want to use.
    If you use any compression the task is far less trivial than you might think.
    Trying to predict the effect of the compression (even if it were non-destructive) is not always sensible so the viable approach may be to save, check file size, if above intended one change dimensions, save, check file size etc.
    I think I have come across thread/s on this in the Scripting Forum but I can’t remember anyone ever posting a finalised Script for this.

  • How can I see the iPhone text message files on my computer?

    I did a back up of my iPhone, how will I be able to see my text messages on the computer?  I would like to keep a hard copy of my text messages from my iPhone.
    Thanks.

    Best way is to extract from your phone. You need third-party software to do so:
