Lack of thumbnails(and yes, i've looked at the ten other threads)

A majority of my picture files have the generic jpeg picture file, not the correct thumbnail preview. I've tried changing the "view options", but that doesn't seem to work. They are all on the correct "show icon preview" setting. Any suggestions, or any ideas where I could find an answer to this crippling problem?
Thanks.

Hi, aswimmer94563. Whether your photos have custom thumbnail icons or not probably depends on what application or applications have been used to open them in the past. Some applications generate thumbnail icons and others don't. iPhoto doesn't, since it assumes you will always be running it when you want to view and organize your pictures, and it does generate its own internal thumbnails (not icons). So any photos on your computer that have never been opened with any application except iPhoto are very likely, if not certain, to lack thumbnail icons — while any photo that was ever opened by Photoshop or GraphicConverter, for example, probably will have a thumbnail icon. (Whether or not the latter is true may depend on a preference setting within the other application in question: creating custom thumbnail icons may be an optional setting.)

  • Is it possible to open iPhoto twice under os-x lion to create a photobook on one desktop and to have a look to the photos in full size on the other desktop?

    Is it possible to open iPhoto twice under os-x lion, to create a photobook on one desktop and to have a look to the photos in full size on the other desktop?

    Ok let me ask you IF the IT department of your workplace does NOT want OS X installed on "THEIR" (The Companies) computers because of what they think is some type of security issue why are you trying to go against their wishes and install OS X on a computer that is NOT owned by you.
    That could cost you your job.
    If you continue down this path you will screw up the Windows install and have to take the system back to the IT department to get it fixed. What do you think they will say at that point?
    Do as you like but you would be better off just buying your own Mac computer if you are set on using OS X as your personal operating system.

  • When I cull through my images in the filmstrip everytime I use my right arrow and rate a photo it jumps back to the first thumbnail and i have to arrow all the way back to where I left off.  Is this a setting issue

    Art,
    I am trying to follow your very precise steps, and in my case (PSE11 also, Win7), the focus stays on the edited picture after I return from the editor to the Organizer. I am pretty sure that in the previous post describing your situation, I was able to reproduce the problem, but I don't remember on which version. I just tried in 'Folders' view mode to edit in a selected folder, then I clicked 'All media' so that no folder was selected. Same result in both cases.
    Even if you prefer to work in folders view, you could take advantage of the ability to use 'albums'. It's a misleading word to describe a selection, a 'collection' of pictures, which you can sort as you want. It's a kind of  'playlist' like with music items. In the organizer, you can select a folder and create an album (even a temporary one) just by choosing 'create instant album'. Suppose you have made an album from a folder or a selection of highlighted pictures to edit. You can order them in date order, import batch or 'custom' order'. Since PSE12 you can also sort them in filename order. You should never lose the 'focus' on your last edited picture when coming back from the editor to the organizer. If the purpose of that album is only to help in organizing an editing session, you simply delete the album (the playlist) if you don't want to keep the list afterward.
    I hope someone will be able to confirm how that can happen...
    Edit;
    I have just read Brian's post.
    That may be the difference...

  • I am looking for software to store photos with.  I am not a fancy photographer, and really am just looking for the digital version of a photo album. iPhoto is not cutting it, mainly because it does not back up and restore easily on an external HD.

    I am looking for software to store photos with.  I am not a fancy photographer, and really am just looking for the digital version of a photo album. iPhoto is not cutting it, mainly because it does not back up and restore easily on an external HD.

    That's how Time Machine and iPhoto now work.  Restore the library to one of the external HDs, check it for the photos you want, export them to the boot drive and delete the restored library.
    If you know the file name of the photo you're looking for you can search for them in the TM backup using Find Any File.
    My workflow allows me to do that:
    1 - upload new photos to a folder on the Desktop.
    2 - name the folder to represent the contents and date: 01/03/10-Toads Bday
    3 - use a file renaming app to sequentially rename the photos in the folder to: 2010-01-03-Toads Bday-001.JPG,  -002,JPG, -003.JPG,  etc.
    4 - import the folder into iPhoto creating an Event with the same title as the folder.
    Now I can search for those file by file name with any app of my choosing.

  • When I look up the creation date for files on my Macbook I get the date and month in brackets, but not the year.  Why is this and how can I look up the year?

    When I look up the creation date for files on my Macbook (using "get info", or the information window in Iphoto) I get the date and month in brackets, but not the year.  Why is this and how can I look up the year? 

    Does the Date Modified column in a window set to List view show the date correctly, or does it also display it incorrectly?
    To add additional columns to a Finder (folder) window, with that window open and active open the View Options for it. You can do that by pressing Command-J or by selecting View Options from the View menu in the main menubar.

  • Hello i have the ipad one and im up dating it with the software up date and it  comes up with IOS 5.1.1 and it dose not look like the ipad 2 yet help  me find away to make it look like the ipad 2

    I HAVE THE IPAD 1 AND I NEED HELP UP DATING IT TO LOOK LIKE THE IPAD 2 OR 3 SO .... I WENT INTO THE SETTINGS AND I CLICKED ON SOFTWARE UP DATE AND IT SAYS IOS 5.1.1 YOUR SOFTWARE IS UP TO DATE SO I GO ON TO MY HOME SCREAN AND IT STILL LOOKS THE SAME SO COULD YOU TELL ME HOW I CAN MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THE IPAD 2 OR 3  ???? THANK YOU

    The ipad 1 is not supported by apples latest software updates. The processor just cannot handle the newest ios. Im sure there are various third party apps in the app store to give you more of a look alike ios7 but the first generation ipad cannot be updated due to performance issues.

  • Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine, tried solutions from other threads with no luck, just thought i'd see if anyone else had any ideas, thanks.

    Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine so the problem seems confined to Windows 7. I've tried solutions from other threads -
    Making sure everything is allowed through firewall
    Rebooting phone/laptop/router
    Disabling ipv6
    Disabling all networks except the one curently on
    Re-installing iTunes
    Restoring iPhone
    No luck with any of those unfortunately so i just thought i'd see if anyone else is still without wifi sync after trying those as well and if you ever found a fix, thanks.

    I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

  • List of Simple and Yes or No questions about the Precision T7910 Workstation

    1) I bought a T7910 with only 1 Processor, can I add a second Processor later? 
    2) Do all 7910 Models come with a dual-processor motherboard?
    3) There are videos on Youtube showing a guy changing his 5.25" HDD ports into 2.5" SSD ports with cables, screws, metal plates, and these great little fans and such,  but there seems to be no way to find out where he got the cables, screws and little fans, Do these sort of options, cables, screws, plates and fans etc. come with the T7910?
    4) If they do not come with the machine, can they be ordered after the fact? (where? See next question...)
    5)  I went to the Dell Parts & Upgrades site then to the 'Accessories for your Dell Precision Workstations T7910' page,.  There was exactly ONE part available for the 7910, (some strange cheap little video card) see here: accessories.us.dell.com/.../Category.aspx;l=en&cs=19&s=dhs&category_id=2999&mfgpid=238987&Tab=Parts&stype=2
    so.... 
    Is that the ONLY Part or Upgrade one can buy for a Precision 7910 workstation?
    (sub question: Where are the Replacement Power supplies and Memory chips and cables and fans and Procs and Drives and Raid Kits for the 7910?
    6)  I bought 32GB DDR4-2133 for my 7910 (in a 4x8GB configuration), can I ADD more memory later keeping my existing chips and just adding 4 more 8GB chips to get to 64GB? (or do they all have to be matched chips installed at the same time like the old days...)
    THANK YOU!

    I just bought my T7910. The short list of specs on mine:
    - E5-2623
    - 2 x 4GB (2 x 16GB should be coming in this week)
    - 310 videocard (already been upgraded to a 960)
    - 500GB HDD (already added a 500GB Samsung 850 EVO and a leftover 2TB)
    - purchased the quad 2.5" drive bay that goes into the 5.25" optical drive bay to allow me to put in 4 x 2.5" drives besides the standard 4 x 3.5" drives
    I bought this system after very detailed research. Not all information and/or parts are straight up available on Dell's site (e.g. the quad drive bay I made sure to be part of the purchase, but knew it would ship separately).
    SpeedStep
     1) I bought a T7910 with only 1 Processor, can I add a second Processor later? 
    No -> Incorrect: you can add a 2nd processor later, but you'd need to get a genuine Dell heatsink for that 2nd processor, which currently means you'll have to buy that from Dell as I haven't found any resellers offering that heatsink separately yet.
    2) Do all 7910 Models come with a dual-processor motherboard?
    No -> Yes, all motherboards in the T7910 support dual processors (you just need a 2nd heatsink, which doesn't come with the system if you buy it with a single processor)
    3) There are videos on Youtube showing a guy changing his 5.25" HDD ports into 2.5" SSD ports with cables, screws, metal plates, and these great little fans and such,  but there seems to be no way to find out where he got the cables, screws and little fans, Do these sort of options, cables, screws, plates and fans etc. come with the T7910?
    No -> Correct, but you can buy them from Dell. The SKU to buy is 470-ABHF. This SKU is probably not findable on dell.com, so you'd have to go through spare parts or your salesrep. Dell's KB article here, shows some information, but at the time I'm writing this it doesn't have a (correct) SKU for the 7910 (it uses different cables than the 7600/7610 due to the 12Gbit/s SAS vs 6Gbit/s SAS).
    4) If they do not come with the machine, can they be ordered after the fact? (where? See next question...)
    No -> Yes, see above
    5)  I went to the Dell Parts & Upgrades site then to the 'Accessories for your Dell Precision Workstations T7910' page,.  There was exactly ONE part available for the 7910, (some strange cheap little video card) see here: accessories.us.dell.com/.../Category.aspx;l=en&cs=19&s=dhs&category_id=2999&mfgpid=238987&Tab=Parts&stype=2
    so.... 
    Is that the ONLY Part or Upgrade one can buy for a Precision 7910 workstation?
    Yes -> No, the website is just very limited in what it lists, even though Dell does seem to have added memory and drive upgrades at least, since your original post.
    (sub question: Where are the Replacement Power supplies and Memory chips and cables and fans and Procs and Drives and Raid Kits for the 7910?
    No -> You'll have to call Dell spare parts or your Dell salesrep.
    6)  I bought 32GB DDR4-2133 for my 7910 (in a 4x8GB configuration), can I ADD more memory later keeping my existing chips and just adding 4 more 8GB chips to get to 64GB? (or do they all have to be matched chips installed at the same time like the old days...)
    Yes -> Correct; each processor has 4 memory channels. All usable memory channels have to be identically populated, unless the memory channel isn't being used (e.g. you don't have a 2nd processor to communicate with the 2nd set of 8 DIMMslots, or you don't need that much memory at this time). So, in your case, you would end up with 4 memory channels with 2 x 8GB DIMMs in each memory channel. For my system I should have 4GB + 16GB in 2 of my 4 memory channels for my CPU.

  • Render tab thumbnail (and output) is very different from the viewer in main color tab.

    I'm having a really strange issue with one of my projects. I can't seem to output my footage correctly as seen in the "color" tab in speedgrade. The result is much more blue in hue.
    Color tab main viewer:
    Render tab thumbnail:
    As you can see the thumbnail is much colder than the main color tab viewer, and the final output (both DPX and proRes4444) is just like the thumbnail.
    Has anyone here experienced this issue? Is it a known bug? Workaround?
    I should mention that I'm working with several gradinglayers. 5 to be exact, doing different adjustments. Does this potential bug have to do with that?
    Thank you,
    Joan

    For starters, it would be good to know which version (especially a build number) you're using of SpeedGrade. You're clearly running in "native" mode to render directly from Sg but could be doing that in anything from the ol' Iridas through CS6 SpeedGrade to a CC version. There are some few changes that came in along the line. Subtle mostly. But useful to know.
    It would also be handy to know the codec/s you're grading, and any out-board devices you might have in the video chain from AJA, Kona, MB, whoever ...
    I've had gamma shifts at times that were a PAIN to nail down, but I've not had color/hue shifts so much. At least, while there was a slight change in color/hue of a render at the wrong gamma, once I'd corrected the export settings to get the correct gamma the color/hue problems disappeared. There is a very experienced user of Sg for years who might be good at helping ... if Joost van der Hoeven is available.

  • Resizing RAW thumbnail and preview

    No one in Adobe technical support seems to be able to help me.
    I've updated CS2 to CS5, and in Bridge, am unable to increase the thumbnail and preview size of .CR2 images. JPEGS, PDF, PSDs... they all resize fine. And before you ask... yes I know about the slider at the bottom. And yes I have tried all the 'cache' options.
    I have also tried to create a new login with administrator rights (at the request of tech support) and it still has the same issue.
    I have also reinstalled CS5 once as well.
    Any suggestions? Pretty please?

    Thanks for reporting back, still some questions.
    Did you search for hidden cache files other than the before named cache
    files?
    Here or some of my thoughts about your attempts:
    >> Purged the cache Bridge CS5
    Have you already tried to delete the complete cache folder manually from the
    user library cache/adobe/adobe Bridge CS5 location? After restart Bridge
    creates a fresh, new but completely empty cache file and you need to recache
    your thumbs and previews.
    >> Deleted the Bridge preferences.
    By this you mean the plist file from user library and combined with
    restarting Bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences?
    >> Re-created the SwitchBoard preferences files.
    Could you explain how? To my knowledge Switchboard resides at root level on
    your system and serves Adobe Air that is also used by Bridge as part of the
    CS suite. But I'm not aware of an option to recreate the preferences?
    >> Updated all software including Camera Raw Plug-in and Bridge and Photoshop
    That should do but for security check if you have only one version active
    (in PS Menu Photoshop about plug ins - Camera Raw, it should say 6.3.0.79)
    >> Created new user
    Most efficient to rule out user specific problems, which brings me to the
    question if you have the default application folder as place for installed
    CS applications?
    >> Reset all work space
    It was a wild guess...
    >> Deleted and reinstalled CS5 twice now
    That is time spoiled if you did not use the Adobe Clean tool also to get rid
    of all preferences. See this article also with the download of the clean
    tool itself.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs5clean.html
    I just can't understand why it is only RAW images. All other formats are fine.
    It is odd.
    Might narrow it down on the raw converter?
    Any other suggestions?
    Personally I would start from Scratch. First read about the Clean Tool and
    be sure to back up all your customized settings, actions tools etc in all
    CS5 applications. Use the save option as much as possible for these settings
    you want to keep and give the files a proper name and new folder so you can
    import them again in an easy way.
    Deactivate the software and use the uninstaller that can be found in the
    separate Suite applications in the application folder. Then use the clean
    tool and then use a search like spotlight (but preferable the free or almost
    free Easy Find that also finds hidden files) to check on all other Adobe
    files that reside on your system and decide if you trash them or place them
    in a separate folder outside the library.
    Don't forget to delete the hidden cache files for Bridge. You will need some
    time to recache the lot but if it works it is all worth it.
    If it does not work I help you crying if that is of some comfort for you

  • How can I delete "authorities" certificates? I highlight one and ask to delete it and say OK. Then it is not in the list, until I look at the list of certificates again. It is there. So Firefox does not really delete it. Help!

    I have tried more than once to delete the "authorities" certificates. It looks like it works. However when I go out of that window and then back to look at the certificates, they are not deleted.
    I really do not want all those certificates just there.

    You can edit a certificate and remove all trusted bits if you do not want a build-in certificate to be used as a root certificate.
