JPEG thumbnails won't rotate

I'm using Preview 3.0.8 and when I download jpegs onto my computer the thumbnails are automatically created. I open the pics that need to be rotated and rotate them but the thumbnails will not automatically rotate and I can not figure out how to manually rotate the thumbnails either. Any help would be appreciated.

  • How can I create a jpeg thumbnail image?

    I'd like to create a clear jpeg thumbnail image of the first page of a document created in InDesign.  It will be used in Constant Contact as a link to the online version of the document.  (Constant Contact doesn't take JPEG's)
    I especially need help making it crisp and clear.
    Thank you!

    And there will be occasions when it's not better, and there are alternative ways to get better results.
    You may not have tested every situation and font, but I've done enough to know that sometimes it doesn't work as expected. And it wasn't a "challenge", it was an observation.
    Here's 3 ways to make a JPEG - and the one that is the best is the one that was exported to PDF and then opened in Photoshop and then Saved as a JPEG.
    .........Direct Export .........................Export PDF................................Export PDF
    .....to JPEG.from ID.....................Open in Photoshop.............Save to JPEG from Acrobat.
    (EDIT - The forum is adding extra compression to the images - I assure you the middle image is the best)

  • I have only recently got my iphone, and the screen won't rotate in Safari or messaging. It works fine in games (eg Doodle Jump). The screen portrait lock is off, and i have tried turning it on and off and updating it. Why wont it rotate?

    I have only recently got my iphone, and the screen won't rotate in Safari, the ipod, photos or messaging. It works fine in games (eg Doodle Jump). The screen portrait lock is off, and i have tried turning it on and off and updating it. Why wont it rotate?

    Next step is to Restore it in iTunes from your backup. If that does not work they try Restoring it as a new phone. If still no go it is a hardware failure and you will need to get it serviced.
    And you are not showing the hardware lock icon on the top right of the home screen?

  • My iPhone won't rotate how do I fix this

    I Updated my iPhone 5 and now the pictures won't rotate, how do I fix this?

    Swipe up from off the bottom of the screen to open Control Center.  Tap the top right button to turn portrait lock on/off.

  • After I updated to iOS 5.1, my iPad2 won't rotate anymore.

    I updated to iOS 5.1. the other day, and my iPad2 won't rotate anymore even if the screen is not locked. I went to service center, and after testing the iPad's accelerometer playing some game, the guy at the service center thought that it is not a hardware problem, but more on the 5.1 update. Weird thing is, I enabled the "assistive touch" feature's "rotate screen" function, and the screen rotates, although with prompting. That is, it will rotate only after I choose or unchoose to either "rotate screen" to portrait or left or right. Anyone else who has experienced this? Any suggestions how to fix this?

    First of all, check again at "Settings > General" and view the Side Switch configuration.
    If "Mute" is selected, then double-click the Home button, swip right the icon bar at the bottom and confirm the "Lock Rotation" icon is not locked.
    If "Lock Rotation" is selected, then turn the Side Switch a couple of times in order to force the rotation again.
    I hope this will help you.
    Kind regards

  • My iPad mini screen won't rotate

    Why my ipad min screen won't rotate.

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, swipe up from the bottom to get to the control center. Look for the lock icon in the row of icons at the top. It will be the last one on the right. Check that to see if the screen is locked.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button

  • Jpeg thumbnails too dark in CS5 bridge

    All of a sudden my jpeg thumbnails appear very dark and muddy in CS5 bridge. Such images are of normal brightness when opened in Photoshop proper.
            Equally puzzling is when a jpeg image is then "saved as" back to the same folder as a TIFF (for example) the jpeg looks dark but the TIFF version of the same file looks correct. RAW files still look correct.
    This seems to be a recent problem as jpeg images I processed a few ago weeks ago still dislay normally in bridge.
    I've tried purging the folder cache without effect. Thumbnail quality is set to "always high". I feel I may have accidentally altered a setting but cannot think wghat it might be. Please help.

    Since my posting I have realised this problem is confined to images from the Nikon D800 camera ONLY. Jpegs from my other Nikon cameras display normally.
    That does indeed not indicate to a cache problem alone. But you stated in your earlier post purging cache did solve the problem temporarily hence my idea about this solution.
    I still think you should try to move the files to another new folder but you have provided us with very less detail about what computer, systemOS etc you are using and if you have the correct ACR version for support of your Nikon D800 which I believe is ACR 6.7 (in Photoshop use menu Photoshop / about Plug ins / Camera Raw to check which version you have.
    Just to say I shoot RAW and batch convert to sRGB jpeg from ACR. It doesn't matter what size option I save to from ACR.
    I don't follow this workflow, shooting Raw provides you with all details and data from your sensor but you need to go through them for fine tuning the settings. Shooting jpeg means you loose a lot of those details and let the camera software decide to fine tune for you (in a nutshell, it is a bit more complicated…)
    Shooting Raw and without change settings and fine tune just convert these files to sRGB jpeg is in my opinion pointless. You better use the option to shoot Raw + jpeg and use the jpegs out of camera for this purpose.

  • IPad screen won't rotate

    I have an iPad 2, out of warranty, that won't rotate (one of 150 iPads that are nearing the end of their usage cycle and will be sold at the end of the school year). It is stuck in landscape mode and won't rotate to portrait mode. In an attempt to fix it, I've tried everything short of opening it up: I've done a hard reset, I've done a system restore, and I even ran the battery clear down until nothing would come on the screen when the power button was pushed. Nothing has made any difference. (And no, the screen rotation is not locked, and no, the side switch is set to Mute, not Lock Rotation.)
    It makes me think the internal gyroscope is not functioning. Now here's where it gets interesting. I have downloaded the free Gyroscope app, on this and several other iPads for comparison. I can report two significant findings on the iPad that won't rotate properly: (1) All 3 axes of rotation on the gyroscope respond properly; and (2) the numbers on the defective iPad do not agree with the numbers on the other iPads. I.e., sitting side-by-side on a flat, level desk top, a "good" iPad reports Yaw: -173 degrees, Pitch: 0 degrees, and Roll: -1 degrees; while the defective iPad reports Yaw: 3 degrees, Pitch: 16 degrees, and Roll: -32 degrees. That leads me to believe that the gyroscope (or accelerometer) needs to be calibrated. However, I'm not aware of any facility for doing that. And furthermore, it's not clear that this has any bearing on the fact that it won't rotate.
    So... any ideas or suggestions? I am not averse to opening the device up, if there is a replaceable part. I haven't been able to find any info about such a task. My only other options are, as far as I know: Send it to Apple for replacement at $249, or sell it at a discount since it is not fully functional. Thanks in advance for any useful ideas. - JR

    Then you are not the usual user.
    If you can disassemble the iPad 2 then you may be able to replace the small custom circuit board containing the gyroscope and accelerometer chips (if you can source the part).

  • TS3274 My iPad screen won't rotate.. I have unlocked  at the volume button and on the multi task bar

    Why has my iPad screen stopped rotating?  I have tried by using the mute button to unlock.  It says it is unlocked. But it won't rotate.

    1. Make sure the Side Switch is set to Lock Rotation: Settings>General>Use side switch to

  • Best way to group TIFF + JPEG + thumbnail versions of the same file

    Cheers - quick question. At work, our photography group delivers photographs in groups of FOUR files per image: high-resolution TIFF; high-res JPEG; low-res JPEG; thumbnail. Is there a native way or feature in Aperture that allows me to group all four versions of these files into a single "bucket" within a project?
    For example, if a have a project holding all the photographs I took during a test flight today, rather than seeing the same image four times consecutively (TIFF, hi-res JPG, low-res JPG, thumbnail), can I simply group those four into one? . . . or, alternately, is there a quick feature within Aperture that makes it very very easy to export a thumbnail or high or low-res JPEG if I choose to only store the high-resolution TIFF?
    I apologize if asking a basic question. I've only been using Aperture for a month - absolutely love it, and have completed most of Apple's video tutorials and the entire "Exploring Aperture" guide, but haven't found anything there addressing this topic.
    Appreciate any insight - or your own personal approaches - that anyone can offer!
    thanks!!
    Mark

    The other possibility would be to use albums. You could create an album for each grouping and then drag the images into the album.
    While this sounds storage intensive (multiple albums all duplicating images in projects) it really isn't given the Aperture way. That is the images in the albums are only links back to the project images. noting is duplicated. The album way might give you a bit more flexibility over stacks. Stacks are good for some things but they can be somewhat rigid in that all the images in the stack, in general, have to move together.
    As you will discover, there are many ways to accomplish the same thing in Aperture. This makes it both extremely powerful and also somewhat frustrating at least at first.

  • IPhone 6 Videos app won't rotate

    Hi Everyone,
    Recently, my iPhone 6 Videos apps is stuck in landscape mode and won't rotate the screen.
    Symptoms: the iPhone refuses to rotate the display in Videos. All other apps rotate fine.
    Toggling orientation lock makes no difference. Portrait lock, standard view, adjusting compass, restart and restore didn't fix the problem.
    Has anyone else seen this?

    Restore as new.

  • Pictures won't rotate/Movies won't flip

    A few months ago, it started acting a little strange..
    It won't rotate my pictures, flip my movies or coverflow!
    But this goes on AND off, several times a day.

    Does anyone have any suggestions about this issue?
    Or should I trade it in for a new one?
    Thanks

    Press the home button twice, consecutively to bring up multi tasking. swipe from left to right.  you will then see a orientaion lock key. Press that and it should solve the problem. Hope this helps

  • My ipad 2 won't rotate. i tried reseting it severally my "Use Side Switch" is set to Mute and there is no rotation lock sign close to the battery sign in the upper right side

    my ipad 2 won't rotate. i tried reseting it severally my "Use Side Switch" is set to Mute and there is no rotation lock sign close to the battery sign in the upper right side

    The software switch is in the task bar at the bottom. Double tap the home button and swipe to the right in the bottom of the screen. The speaker icon on the left would be where the software switch would be.
    If you don't see a lock icon in the upper right corner, the screen isn't locked, reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
