JPGs and GIFs in Coverflow not showing

For some reason the cover view in the Finder is no longer showing previews of JPGs and GIFs, but is only showing the generic icons for each.
Any clues as to what's causing that and how to fix it?
Cheers.

Try deleting the Finder.plist preference:
/Users/Kenny/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
Then relaunch the Finder.
Thanks ... Ken

Saving file, but jpg and gif comes out garbled

Would someone please help me? I'm at my wit's end here. I'm writing a program that reads a file and saves it, but it needs to read a maximum of 512 bytes before it starts to write. It needs to work with both text files and images.
- It works fine with text files.
- It works fine with bmp images.
- It works fine with jpg and gif images under 512 bytes.
- With a jpg or gif over 512 bytes, it comes out all garbled, but the same file size as the original.
One thing is really confoozling me. When the image comes out garbled, I tried changing the files for both the original and the copy into text files by changing the file extension to .txt. Both the text files were identical! So if the data is identical, why is the copy not showing the same image as the original?
import java.io.*;
     public class SaveFile{
          public static final int BUFSIZE = 512;
          public static final String LIBRARY = "C:\\";
          static int totalRead = 0; //Total number of bytes in buffer (Max BUFSIZE).
          static int fileSize = 0; //Size of whole file.
              static String fileName = ""; //Name of file.
             static char[] data = new char[BUFSIZE]; //The data in the file.
          public static void main(String[] args){
                        //Bytes already read by the buffer.
                  int charsRead = BUFSIZE;
                      //Takes name of file from main argument.
                     for(int i=0; i < args.length; i++)
                         fileName = fileName + args;
//Name of file including directory.
          String fetchFile = LIBRARY + fileName;
          File file1 = new File(fetchFile);
          * Reads a string from the file to data (char array).
               BufferedReader reader =
new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file1), BUFSIZE);
               BufferedWriter writer =
new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
               //Will continue as long as buffer is full.
               while (charsRead == BUFSIZE){
                    charsRead = reader.read(data, 0, BUFSIZE);
                    if (charsRead != -1) {
                         totalRead = charsRead;
                         write(writer);
                         fileSize = fileSize + totalRead;
               reader.close();
               writer.close();
          System.out.println((fileSize) + " bytes read and saved as " + fileName);
     * Writes data to a new file.
     public static void write(BufferedWriter writer) {
               for (int j = 0; j < totalRead; j++) {
                    writer.write(data[j]);
I stripped away the directory selection and error handling to make it simpler.

Can no longer copy and past jpg and gifs into InDesign from c:\user\doc\pics

Here is the error message we get when doing a copy and past from the hard drive to InDesign.
Error Message from InDesign:
Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing...
First, do I need to add a plug-in to be able to copy and past jpgs and gifs?
Second, we have always used clip organizer with no problem. Ability to copy and paste jpg & gif suddenly stopped. We get a box but no image ont the page. Have already tried dumping temp internet files through internet explorer. Have already un & re installed InDesign and repaired and fixed everything I could think of.
Third, we can use the place command to place jpgs but can not place gifs.
William (Helping Mrs. White)

It sounds as if Mrs White needs to search visually for graphics and then place them. She can either set Windows Explorer
to thumbnail view and drag a graphic on to an InDesign page - this will in effect be placing the graphic, not copying
and pasting, and is the right way to go. Or she can use File > Place, and set the view in the Explorer window that she
selects from in the Place command to a thumbnail view to see the graphics.
GIFs can be placed. They are not a recommended format, but if you are placing clip art then you may have no option.
So, in answer to your original question, no, you don't need a plug-in to place JPEGs and GIFs. But note that is place,
not copy and paste.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Audiobooks are not currently part of the content that can be re-downloaded. You should sync your audiobooks to other devices via iTunes on your computer. If your audiobook didn't download correctly or has other problems, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.
To copy the audiobooks from one computer to another, use homesharing, put them on a memory stick or use your Dropbox if your computers are networked.

Camera and ipod shuffle do not show up on desk top when connected

Kodak camera and ipod shuffle do not show up on desk top when connected. Trying to download pictures and adding my music to ipod shuffle, Anyone have any suggestions.

Have you plugged in another USB device to ensure that the USB ports are working?
Suggest you buy (about $10 - $20) a USB memory card reader. Just plug your camera's memory card into it & copy the pic files to your Mac. Quicker & easier than interfacing the camera for pic transfer.

Just purchased a ipad2, could not us it on my MacBook 10.4.1 - Purchased and installed OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3 - downloaded and installed latest itunes, set up a itunes accounts and tested by purchasing an album and app, ipad does not show in devises?

I just purchased a ipad2, it would not work on my MacBook 10.4.1 I purchased and installed OSX snow leopard 10.6.3 downloaded and installed the latest itunes, set up an itunes account, purchased some music and apps. When i plug in my ipod it shows up and works, but when i plug in my new ipad the ipad screen comes up with a display of a cable and itunes but does not show in devises, i have tried all the resets and different USB ports with no success. Any ideas short of selling it on ebay or buying a new computer?

If you've already tried the usual rebooting of the computer and ports and stuff, there is only a few things left I can think of. It's possible that when you updated iTunes it didn't fully replace all the files, so I suggest just manually removing iTunes and then reinstalling it.
Try removing iTunes manually first http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 then download a fresh copy, make sure it is 10.3.1
It is essential that you go through Finder to remove those files it mentions. Otherwise they won't be reinstalled when you run the installer again.

Anybody having problems in Mail when sending reply messages from a thread and the message is not showing in the Sent mailbox?

Hello Folks;
Got a weird one...
I am sending replies from a thread in Mail and they seem to have been sent (sounds) but they don't show in the Sent mailbox... O-0 These messages seem to have been delivered to cyberspace as they don't show in my Sent mailbox on my IMAP server... This has been happening for the last month... I have checked and verified all of my IMAP settings and Mailbox behavior settings... This is really weird and maybe a bug.... I checked all of my other clients that have access to the server on the same account and these messages do not show there either.... Any ideas?
--prd54usa

The messages are getting to the recipient...
I am on a Comcast IMAP server if this has anything to do with it and the server settings are following the correct server port numbers, SSL settings, etc... I save Sent messages on the IMAP server for 90 days.... None of these "disappearing" messages were on the server for more than a couple of days.. Typically, these messages will get 'hung' in the Outgoing Mailbox for @30 seconds before sending... like they are being scanned for viruses or Mail can't connect to the server all of a sudden...
I anybody else here is on a Comcast IMAP server, and having this problem of disappearing Sent messages... This would tell us that it might be a Mail Provider issue with their outgoing server...

In iOS 7.0.2 All and Missed tabs are not showing call history correctly

In iOS 7.0.2 All and Missed tabs are not showing call history correctly, I have iPhone 4 running iOS 7.0.2 version it looks like there is a bug. Missed call history and All calls (incoming, outgoing and missed) history is not showing properly in a list. Ideally when I click on missed it should show me recent missed call list and when I click on All it should show me (incoming, outgoing and missed) calls list sorted by current date and time.
I would like to request Apple developer team to look into this and fix this bug asap. Thanks in advance.

My itunes tv and movie purchases are not showing in my video app

my itunes tv and movie purchases are not showing in my video app, iphone 5s, and this has happened since ios 8 was installed

Were they previously downloaded/synced to your iPhone, and if they were have you got them in the TV Shows and Movies parts of your computer's iTunes library. When you update via a computer the device is backed up, the iOS version is updated, and your content is then restored to the device - but none of your iTunes downloads are included in the actual backup (just your documents, notes, calendars, app settings etc), instead it looks to get the apps, music, films, TV shows from your iTunes library.
If the 'show all' setting isn't showing them then what country are you are in, you are logged in with the same account that you bought them with, you haven't changed countries since buying them and they aren't hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases ?

My iPhoto videos are not showing up in iMovie? I have quit, shut down my Mac and they still are not showing up? What can I do to resolve this?

It is also posible to go back to the imovie you had before, it is still on your computer - you go to Finder and it is in a folder in your programs. Many others have gone back to the old program, and perhaps I am also going to do that too.
In the new imovie it does not come up the question "do you want to download these videos ...."
You shall in imovie open your iphotolibrary in top on the left side,( it is standing under libraries) and you can see all the events you have in iphoto, then you can open the event, you shall use and drag the movies and pictures from the events in iphoto to an events in imovie. If you can,t see your libraries, you can click on a show button on top of the left side.
On the picture you see here iphoto is market on the top of the left side and the pictures to the left is my iphoto-events - and there I can open the one I shall use, and find my movies.

Thank you for the sugestion, but it was working fine both on the lock screen and on my home screen. I check all my settings and it is how it was from Friday, when I got the iPhone 5s. It just stop working. The only way I can fix it is by shutting down the phone. It will work for a while, then it won't.
