Live preview stopped working?

Hello,
I hope I am wording this correctly. I have never had this issue but I must have turned this feature off. When positioning an object I used to be able to see it move as I was adjusting its position on my composition. So like if I moved the Y position to 25 and then scrolled it along to say 32 I would watch the object move. THen one day it stopped doing that. I'm using a guide that the creative director sent over in order to make sure my elements line up correctly but without this preview it's just tedious. I was wondering if anyone knows what that function was called and then how to do I turn it back on?
Thanks so much, I am frustrated with it because I have never turned it off so I didn't even know that was an option.
I'm using AE CC on a Mac running Mavericks. It appears when I bring the project to my laptop it works just like it did before so I'm assuming I just turned off a feature.
Thanks again,
Jeremy

Enable the live preview button in the timeleine. also, if that shouldn't be it, check your graphics acceleration stuff.

    Hello hermajestys,
    Thank you for the question.  Using your iMac as a display will depend on the model of your iMac and Mac mini. 
    You can find the compatible models and the steps to enable Target Display Mode below:
    Target Display mode Requirements:
    4. What are the requirements for TDM?
    A Mac notebook or desktop with a Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt connection
    A ThunderBolt or Mini DisplayPort cable 
    A supported iMac with OS X 10.6.1 or later. The table below shows iMac computers that support TDM, the required cables, and the port of the computer to which you are connecting the iMac.

    5. How do I enable TDM?
    Make sure both computers are turned on and awake. 
    Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
    Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
    Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.

  • CSS Live development stopped working?

    Hello all, I just updated to the lated release of Edge code and while I love that live development for HTML is a nice added feature, it seems that the live development for my CSS is now not working properly.
    What happens is the changes I make to the css dont automatically update of the preview browser unless I refresh the browser now. The way I set up my files currently is I create a separate css file and link to it from my html file. Any help would be appreciated as this is kind of slowing down my whole process.
    Thanks

    Is the file extension for your external css file ".css"? Live Preview does not yet support preprocessors like LESS or SASS.
    Be sure to use File > Open Folder... to select a folder that contains all of you project files.
    Hope this helps,
    Randy

  • Edge Code - Live preview not working

    Live preview is not working, it opens up file:///Applications/Adobe%20Edge%20Code%20CC.app/Contents/www/LiveDevelopment/launch.html. It there a way to fix this? I am running experimental build 0.98.0-359086275 on MAC OX 10.10.2.

    Hey Daniel, have you tried the same thing in the most recent Brackets version?
    It might also be worthwhile walking through the steps on the Live Preview Troubleshooting page - Troubleshooting · adobe/brackets Wiki · GitHub

  • Gif file preview stopped working

    New computer. Gif file preview was working last night and now I'm just getting a still picture. I installed Photo Impact Pro and that program may have made some changes. I can't preview gifs in that program.  Anyone know a way to restore this feature? I would like to be able to click on a gif file and see it move in preview like it was doing.

    Hi,
    First of all you have to make analysis of the issue.. why its comming..
    thats why i had suggested you to uninstall your newer installed software.. by uninstalling them you can analyse the issue.
    may be programme hadnt installed correctly thats why you are getting this error.
    Please, try to troubleshoot the issue by your self.. uninstall the programme and then check.. if our .gif works with older programme perfectly then your newely installed programme having issue or it was not installed correctly..
    you can install your uninstalled programme later to resolve that issue.
    post result if having any issue. thx

  • The preview stopped working in the develop module.

    Initially the preview worked for 15 minutes and then stopped generating a preview of the desired pre-set.
    Clicking on the pre-set did have the correct picture but the preview wasn't available.
    It would be easier to see what preview you were looking at if you had a higher contrast on the grey background too.

    Hi - I'm seeing the same issue. And yes I am seeing it in Develop with Grid view on second monitor.
    I can reproduce this by hovering over another image in Grid on second monitor (this brings up the new image in Navigator), then going back to main screen and hovering over any preset - no more preset updates to Navigator.
    Interestingly navigator continues to show files if hovered over in Grid on the second monitor though..
    Presets continue to work if clicked so this seems to be purely an issue with updating Navigator with Presets 'on the fly'.

  • Excel Print preview stopped working and when save as pdf, pdf is blank

    mac 10.5.8
    excel home and student 2011
    i was working on 2 documents for our accountant.
    created one in excel, converted to pdf
    created second one in excel, converted to pdf
    there was maybe a 30 minute time lapse between these 2 files...tops
    the first file does in fact have a print preview, and the pdf opens and is viewable.
    HOWEVER, on the second file, there is no print preview, and pdf is blank.
    (although the printer does in fact print the file with all the words and whatnot on it...)
    blank pdf prints blank.
    i tried xlsx, and xls to pdf, and nothing works.
    it seems that all of the files created before this troublesome one can be converted and seen in print preview....even if i add a new sheet to the workbook, that works just fine...can print preview and convert pdf no problems.
    now, when i try to do that with the second file, or any new excel doc, i canNOT convert or print preview....everything is blank.
    one minute it was working, the next it's not.
    it works for some excel files while not working for newer ones.
    nothing was changed in preferences for excel, preview, or the printer, unless i accidentally typed a keyboard command that would allow this to happen.
    i REALLY need to be able to convert excel to pdf!  and i really don't want to have to print them out just to scan them in and save the scans as pdf...not fun.
    i have been researching, or trying to research this here,and it seems that there is a known bug for office 2008, or for a different OS, but none of the work arounds for those issues are helping me here!
    someone, please help me get my save as pdf back!!!!

    Try different page setups and layouts.  Reinstall the Office fonts, or check for new patches from Microsoft.     Check in Microsoft Office forums.   Mind you PDF from preview and print are not as complete as Adobe Acrobat Pro, and are based on open source PDF standards.  I don't know how well the standards were at the time your Office application was written, or if 10.5's PDF standard was up to Office's snuff, or if you updating to the latest available Adobe Acrobat Reader  and Plugin will help, but between Office's and Adobe's forum you may be abl eto find an answer.

  • CS4 Bridge Preview stops working

    While in Bridge, if I press the space bar to zoom in on an image preview, the image enlarges just fine to full screen, but when I press the space bar again to return to the normal preview, the normal preview window is blank. It remains blank when I click on other images too. The only way I can get the normal sized preview to return is to go to "workspace" and re-click the workspace I was already in and it seems to clear the problem up - until I want to zoom in by using the spacebar again.
    Another, possibly separate, problem is when I do use the space bar to zoom in on an image, if I click to zoom in even more, sometimes (not always) it tells me the image is "not available" and it does not zoom in any closer.
    Does anyone have any input on this problem?
    Windows XP, 3G RAM
    Thank you,
    Monte

    Monte,
    I have noticed the same thing regarding the missing preview after returning from space bar/review mode. I have what is supposed to be a CS4/OpenGL compatible card (Nvidia 8800GT).
    I suppose this is one of those things that Adobe blames on Nvidia and Nvidia blames on Adobe.
    I have found a relatively simple way to get the preview back though. I just minimize Bridge and then bring it back. That seems to work. In Windows, this can be done pretty easily by just clicking on Bridge in the task bar twice (once to minimize and once to bring it back).

  • Presenter 8- Theme Editor Preview stopped working

    When I click on the Theme Tab the pop up window for the Theme Editor shows but the preview display has the Adobe Presenter pre-load screen and nothing else.
    This was OK  in the trial version and then it stopped.  I just purchased the license and uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing changed.
    I did a repair for MS Office 2010 thinking that maybe my Powerpoint got messed up.
    I can change the theme but then I have to preview the current slide to see if I got what i wanted.  .

    Am having same problem. Checked in PowerPint Options/Add-Ins, and it listed the Adobe Presenter PowerPoint COM Addin's location as C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Presenter 8\MenuLauncher.dll. This suggests I'm actually running Presenter 8. Am I reading this correctly?

  • ERASER AND PENCIL PREVIEWS STOPPED WORKING

    Hello.  I have been running Adobe CS6 Photoshop extended for about 18 months, and tonight, a problem occurred that I am not able to fix.  The eraser and pencil functions normally preview showing their diameter with an outline.  I was working away, and doing some erasing, and suddenly, the preview diameter vanished, and only the center mark for the eraser and the pencil showed.  I have no indication of how large the eraser and pencil are until I actually erase or draw, then they work, but I have no preview.
    I checked for updates, and there are none, so I am up to date.  I went to the reset tools, and did a reset, but that did nothing.  I logged out of Photoshop, and restarted, and the problem still existed.  I opened other Photoshop files, and the problem still existed.  I tried turning on Photoshop while holding shift to disable external plug-ins (a desperate grab at a straw), and that didn't help.
    What do I do?  I can't use the pencil or eraser efficiently without a preview.  Thank you, Chuck

    Good day!
    Is caps-lock on?

  • Thumbnail previews stopped working

    Viewing a folder full of images, it will only give me generic icons for previews.
    folder options "show icon preview" is checked.
    any ideas why it stopped previewing?

    In addition to repairing permissions using Disk Utility, try the suggestions in [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1526528], specifically to 1) trash the Finder plist file and 2) try if the problem occurs when in another user account.

  • Norton Anti Virus  Live Update stopped working after last system update

    Hello,
    I am using Anti- Virus version 11 for MAC. It has worked fine for years. Now Live Update will not run.
    I have tried reloading and nothing helps. Is anyone experiencing this problem.
    Alice

    FYI:
    Norton Anti-virus software is the worst app to install on a Mac. It will slow down the drive and cause all sorts of system issues. Delete Norton and get ClamXav available here, and it's free:
    http://www.clamxav.com/
    There are no known Mac virus. If you really think anti-virus software is necessary, then use Clamxav. It can detect a trojan horse and malware both.

  • Preview stopped working in finder

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my preview pane (the third one along with list and cover flow) in the file system ... isn't showing majority of documents in preview .... just staying as blank.
    But if i drag the preview window out slightly from the edge, then the image appears??
    Anyone else experiencing this or know of a fix?
    Thanks

    Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences folder and trash this file:
    com.apple.finder.plist
    Then, restart, or log out and in again.
    (You may have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)
