Movie thumbnail previews in Coverflow and Grid view...not there

I'm using Snow Leopard and have both QT-X and QT 7 Pro on my MacBook Pro.
In Finder, I have a folder containing several movie types including mpeg, avi, mov, qt, m4v, mp4, flv and wmv
I've noticed that I don't see thumbnail previews for any of these movies and wondered if anybody else can see their thumbnails, either in Grid View or Coverflow
In 3-column view, the thumbail appears once the file is highlighted.
In iTunes, the thumbnail also appears (for those that can be added to the Library)
I also have the latest Perian and Flip4Mac apps installed.
I've tried re-launching Finder after deleting the com.apple.quicklook.plist file
Thanks

I also tried this (deleting the Quicklook cache) and no luck, still the same issue.
I did a clean installation and this works
However, I did again the installation and imported my USER profile in FULL via the assistant when you first configured Snow Leopard (using an FULL BACKUP copy and/or Time Machine Backup) and then problem reappears
I have reinstalled DivX, Desinstalled RealPlayer deinstalled Perian and still the same issue. I cannot see the Thumbnails or the Cover Flow of the video/movie file such MPG, MPG, AVI, WMV but it works for MP4 I have for my IPod
I finally gave up and left this last installation and I did not have the energy to migrate my data, emails, settngs, etc manually.
By the way, the upgrade from Leopard 10.5.8 towards Snow Leopard 10.6 was smooth but the performance was awful specially after installing 10.6.1. With the upgrade I had the same issue with my USER account or with any, NO THUMBSNAILs for most of my videos enough though they are played correctly in Quicktime and Quicklook....
Any help????

Sharepoint 2007 designer - sqldatasource and grid view not displaying on SP page (An unexpected error has occured)

Hi All,
I am using sharepoint designer 2007 and am trying to use a sqldatasource to populate a gridview and then display that on an .aspx page. While in designer everything seems to configure okay. I am able to test the connection and display the data
as expected from the sqldatasource within designer. Then I have the gridview control use the sqldatasource. At that point the grid (within designer) displays the headings as expected. The data that is displayed in the cells is "test data" rather
than actual data value - I'm not sure if this is normal - for example, the data values in every column / row are all equal to 'abc'. Date values are all equal to current date.
Then when I actually display the sharepoint page (via Preview in browser) I get an error "An unexpected error has occurred".
I am using SQLExpress on my laptop as the database for the sqldatasource. I have tried both integrated (windows) and SQL authentication with the same results.
Here is the aspx code from designer:
<asp:GridView runat="server" id="GridView1" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks Daniel.
I am unable to connect to my SQL EXPRESS db on my laptop via SPD 2007: I get the error -
I am able to access that database via SQL Server Mgmt. Studio (both with Windows and SQL Server authentication). I can also access a SQL Express database on a remote server from the exact same SPD 2007 session: I get -
So, I wonder why I can connect to the remote but not the local? Anyway, if you have any ideas I would appreciate it. I am willing to do the work from the article you mention but wanted to rule out there being a simple DB access issue first. I'll also
start to find the ULS logs and review them.
Thanks again !!
Update on 1-3-14: Hi, since yesterday I also have been able to connect to the SQLEXPRESS database / table and display the .aspx page with the gridview in Visual Studio 2010.
Update 1-26-14: Sorry for the delayed response. I determined the reason why I could not connect to the SQLEXPRESS instance on my laptop was that there was a local host intrusion (firewall) rule on my machine that prevented an inbound connection
on port 1433. SharePoint server >>> inbound connect on port: 1433 >>> to Laptop device, not allowed.
Thanks.

Meeting Request and Calendar View not there

I just received a meeting request in my email. I open the email on my Playbook and I have the options of Accept, Tentative or Decline. Before I accept I need to check my calendar to avoid over booking. Oh no, where is the option, I swept the top frame down and no option. How do I check with out switching to my calendar finding the day and time in question and then going back to the email app to click the required button. This is Black Berry, this should all be seamless, are my configurations not right? Can someone please advise???
Thanks,
George

Hi cncgeorge
To check your calendar, you would have to minimize your email application and open the calendar.

Loupe and Grid view rendering not as good as Develop view.

I recently see that while using LR 5.6 the images rendered in the loupe and grid views do not look nearly as good as the same image displayed in the develop view. I have screen grabs if you'd like to see them below. The Loupe and grid are not as saturated and the gradient in the sky is not nearly as smooth. If I bounce between 'E' and 'D' it is pretty obvious. Once in a while the 'E' (loupe) view looks the same. I'm afraid that I will delete an image based on what I see in the Loupe or do unnecessary edits on an image. When I exported to jpg, the images looked pretty good.
Grid:
Loupe:
Develop:

As far as what could be contributing to a difference, other than an actual bug:
LR Previews are stored as AdobeRGB JPGs, so Library previews go from LR-Internal color profile to AdobeRGB to Display color profile, whereas Develop previews go directly from LR-Internal color profile to Display color profile. If there are some colors that are outside of AdobeRGB then some conversion may occur. The conversion to 8-bit JPG is also probably adding banding that Develop wouldn’t show. There might also be Relative vs Perceptual color profile conversion differences occurring. I don’t know the specifics of which is used for the Adobe color profile conversion and whether what you’re seeing is outside the expected variations.
If you view at less than 1:1/100% zoom, especially with Fit or Fill, then small details that vary across the group of original image pixels that are displayed as one display pixel can be averaged differently due to differences in the downsampling algorithms used between computing Library file previews and computing Develop display previews where Develop’s is built for speed because it occurs in real-time after every slider movement, where Library previews are computed in the background and so can use a more accurate resampling algorithm. Usually this is only a difference in sharp/smoothness but it can also manifest as a difference in tone if there are lots of tiny noise spots getting averaged together inaccurately in Develop or more accurately in Library.
Since I can see only a tiny difference between Library and Develop on my monitor in this particular example, I can't imagine that small difference is enough to reject the Library version and accept the Develop version. Maybe you're seeing others with more differences?

Dock question: Can I turn off the expansion/condensing effects of Fan and Grid view?

Hi!
Can I turn off the Dock menu expansion/condensing animations related to Fan and Grid view (and the condensing effect of List view)? I find the expansion/condensing animations slow and detracting from an efficient workflow. I would rather have menus pop up immediately so I can instinctively move the mouse cursor where I can anticipate a file to be located once grid/fan view window launches, rather than have to track the expansion animation with the mouse cursor so that I can select the desired file once it lands in its fixed position.
Is there any known backdoor way to cease these showboating animations?
For the dock to be such a major addition to the Mac OS (when compared to OS 9), I am surprised that there isn't greater customization for it. Speaking of which, why can't we have the option of having more than one dock, for example? I would like to have one mounted to the bottom of my screen for applications, but also have one on the left of my screen for commonly-accessed files and folders.
I am all for stock settings that help to streamline features for users as a baseline, but the more tweakable options the better. I pay a premium for Apple products; who are they to tell me I can have only one dock?! ;p
I've taken a look at Docker and Deeper, but neither delivered the goods. Thanks so much!
P.S. I am still using Snow Leopard. I haven't heard of new dock options for Lion, so please clarify if I am missing out on a Lion innovation.
Thanks again!

Take a look at Secrets, OnyX, or Tinker Tools. All of those have various undocumented preference settings that affect various animations.

Just upgraded to ios7 and want to listen to BBc Global news podcast as I do every single morning and it is not there - where have all my podcasts gone? If I had known this would happen I would NEVER have upgraded.. Help!

Just upgraded to ios7 and want to listen to BBc Global news podcast as I do every single morning and it is not there - where have all my podcasts gone? If I had known this would happen I would NEVER have upgraded.. Help!

As of iTunes 11.1 and iOS7, podcast files will no longer play in the Music app on the iPhone (this is very annoying, but that's the way it is).
The two easiest options are probably:
What Apple wants you to do: download and install their free Podcasts app onto your iOS device. In theory your podcasts, including the BBC news one, should sync onto the Podcasts app. This is supposed to "Just work", and if it just works for you, well, congratulations, but that certainly doesn't seem to be the case for most posters in this forum.
What I'm leaning towards: for all podcasts in iTunes, Get Info, and change them from "Media Kind = Podcasts" to "Media Kind = Audiobook". That will allow them to sync to the Music app. Then you'll have to arrange smart playlists or whatever to sync those (ex-)"podcasts" to your Music app.

How do I remove Facebook contacts from my Contacts list on my 4S??? I've already gone into iCloud settings and Facebook is not even an option to turn off and I've gone into "Groups" in my contact list and Facebook is not there either. How do I stop this

Hmmmm...maybe try deleting them again (I know it's a pain) and then doing a manual icloud backup (unless you already did this). Icloud may be putting them back on there. I never allowed FB to put the contacts on my phone lol. Also try going into Privacy and Contacts...make sure FB isn't on in there. Might be a few other spots to check under settings to make sure too. And...you might want to try deleting the FB app, do a icloud backup, and then reinstall FB

Reboot your iPad and then look again - do the search again and see if you at least confirm that it is on the 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 - let go of the buttons.
If you can confirm that the app is on the iPad with the search, but still cannot find it on any of your screens, connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select your iPad on the left side. Click on the Apps Tab in the iTunes window on the right. Look through the list of apps and find it in the list. Double click on the icon in that list and it should show you the folder and screen that the app is on.

Performance, minimum bandwidth, thumbnail previews for PDF and InDesign Files with web content viewer

Hi,
We are considering using DPS with a web content viewer for large PDFs and/or InDesign files. The client using a web viewer might have very limited bandwidth (some as low as 256Kbps). We ask:
1 - How well does the web viewer perform with very large PDFs and InDesign files (500 MB+) with limited bandwidth? Does the file stream in chunks and the PDF shows as soon as the first page or two are available, with the rest loading in the background, or does the entire file come down in one part and then shown?
2 - Can PDF and InDesign files support thumbnail previews? For example, one image per PDF page and user can scroll forward and back.
Your thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
-Stephen

Hi Stephen,
The way the web viewer works is that it converts the PDF/InDesign files to PNGs along with additional HTML assets. Assets are downloaded as they’re ready for a given page (e.g. first, page 1 is filled with its assets as they become available, then page 2, etc), so a reader wouldn’t need to wait for the entire article to load. The next few pages are also loaded in the background, so the reader wouldn’t be likely to notice lag as they flipped through pages to the next page after reading the current one. So the lag will depend on the size of an individual page.
For your question around thumbnails, the web viewer does not load a preview image so the reader would need to wait for the assets I described above to load.
Hope this helps...
Brian

Thumbnail Icons in list and Column View

I am trying to find out how to change icons for media files (pics/movies) from generic file type icons to thumbnail previews of the file. I Know its possibel because one of my folders (photos/iphoto/origionals.....)shows up in the column and list view as thumbnails. NONE of my other folders do though. I have tried messing with the view options, and i know you can view thumbnails in the ICON view in finder but this is not what i want to do. I also know that in column view you can preview files in an extra column, also not what i want. So anyone know how to make all icons in all finder views into thumbnails?
Thanks

The "icons" you are seeing are QuickLook icons that show a preview of the content in the file. AFAIK, there is no way to disable it. However, you can go into Finder>Preferences>Advanced and enabled the Show all file extensions option to help distinguish between filetypes.

List View and Grid View discrepancy

After having read almost all of the thousands of iTunes 11 user comments all over the Web, the great majority of whom consider this "downgrade" a pain in the neck, I am surprized that nobody has yet mentionned this infuriating bug (or is it another of Apple's "feature"?) : an unsolvable discrepancy between the List View of any playlist and its Grid View.
So maybe I am the only one to have this problem : Why (why? why?) is the sort order of the songs that I chose to have in the List View get all mixed up when I switch to the Grid view ? It is as if I had chosen to shuffle them. I just can't have them in my expected sort order.
Here is a playlist in which all parts are sorted according to my logical need : these are meetings to be listened to in the chronological order that I have decided to build it (and not in an Alphabetical. or Creation Date. or Modification Date or even less, in a Shuffled order that iTunes might decide by itself that I should listen them !)
Now here is the same playlist in the Grid View.
Notice the anarchic mixup of all its parts (together with the unexplainable disappearance of the playing order number of half of them !).
As I have noticed this same "feature" in many screen captures brought up by other users, this totally unacceptable !
And I've been trying for hours to get them back in order, with no avail.
Is it a bug ? Or a ridiculous "feature" ? Or an idiotic design originality (flaw) ?
Or am I missing something ? Did I do something wrong ?

Hi Selva,
Could you please explain more clearly?
I assume you have a form with four textboxes. If you want that the entered values will be saved in the database, you simply 'commit' the data. This can be done e.g. by F10. You do not need any extra buttons or button-pressed-triggers for that. This is standard Forms functionality.
What do you mean with "Again i will enter some some values in the text box"? Do you want to overwrite the old data, or do you want to insert new records in the database. Again, both options are standard Forms functionality.
Maybe you should go through the standard Forms documentation?
Good luck,
Lennart de Vos

Artworks does not appear in List and Grid view, but in Cover Flow

Since a few days the Artwork does neither appear in the List and the Grid View nor in the Genius Mix. When I change to Cover Flow, I can see all Artwork. I see all Artwork also in the information tabs. I already upgraded to the last iTunes version 9.0.2 but without any effect. Restarting iTunes and my PC doesn't help at as well.
Does anybody have an idea what the problem is and how it can be solved?

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
A completely blank Cover Flow can sometimes be a graphics driver problem but if Grid & List views have problems then it is probably a corrupted artwork cache. With iTunes closed rename the *Album Artwork* folder as *Album Artwork (OLD)*. Start iTunes and slowly scroll through your library in Grid mode. The cache will be rebuilt for all albums where there is embedded art. Albums that only had iTunes Store art will need to have new artwork downloaded. If all goes well delete the old artwork folder.
*How to find tracks without artwork*
To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=trackswithoutartwork for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus.

Lightroom 5 0 Bug in Full Screen Mode and Grid View

In full screen mode while using the grid view in the second window the photo you have selected may or may not be the photo you see in the main window.
