My file icons are not updating refreshing in finder

I've just upgraded to Lion. Not that impressed all round to be fair. Anyway, one thing that is really niggling me is tha fact that I create a file in Photoshop, change the visual content, and the icon is not refreshing in the finder. The term I would tend to use is 'crap'.

I can confirm that the solution posted by crockej does indeed work, I am not by any means saying that it is a perfect solution, and am sure that it is not the actual fix, but it does work, I landed up having to add JPG,GIF,PNG,PDF,SWF,FLA,ICO,SWZ,MPR,PSD,XLSX,INDD,AI all to fy file list and although this was 90% of the missing icons fixed, it still requires more like m4v etc.
Think of this as more of a temporary solution to the problem, but it does work.
This is what my /Users/XXXXX/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS5.5/en_US/Configuration/Extensions.txt file looks like now.

When importing files, folders are not updated?

Could anyone please help?
Since I reinstalled Lightroom on a new harddrive (after a crash) whenever I import photos into my library, they appear in "Previous Import", but they are not visible in the destination folder. Even if I, in the import screen, make a new folder, this folder does not appear in the library, folders column untill I manually synchronize the parent folder.
Could anyone give me advice as to how to correct this problem?
Thanks
Micha

Thanks for your answer.
Do you have the option "Do not import duplicates" enabled in Aperture's Import panel?
Yes I have.(But it should anyway show folders. It doesn't scan automatically all folders and subfolders. So I should see something).
When did this problem start? Directly after you upgraded to Mavericks or before?
It started few days ago. I did not update anything or I did not install anything new software etc.
What is the file system on your drive "Kovalevy"?
It should be HFS or HFS Plus? I use these disks only with this Mac.
Is it formatted for Mac? MacOS Extended (Journaled)? Is the drive directly connected? And the what are the permissions on this drive? Have you tried to set the "Ignore Ownership on this volume" option? You can set it in the "File > Get Info" panel for the drive in the Finder: This panel will also show you the file system in the "General" brick.
It is formated MacOS Extended (Journaled).
Yes I tried "Ignore Ownership on this volume". No effect.
I don't have any problems with Finder, Final Cut etc. I can open projects, copy files etc.
Thanks for your time.

Dreamweaver file icons are not displaying correctly.

Hi,
I recently uninstalled a trial copy of the Creative Suite CS4 Master Collection and then purchased the Design Premium bundle.
My icons are now all differnet. For example, .asp files display with the "text" document icon.
Is there a way (either mnaually or with a utility) to reset all of the icons to there proper state?
I am running Vista Ultimate.
Thanks.

Open Notepad.
Copy this text into a new document:
c:\windows\system32\cleanmgr.exe /dc /sageset: 1
c:
cd \
cd c:\windows\prefetch
del *.* /q
Save to your desktop as "clean.bat" ( a Windows Batch File)
Double click it. It will open the disk cleanup tool.
You'll notice a whole bunch of other stuff listed that doesn't show up when you normally run the disk cleanup.
Check EVERYTHING. (Don't worry, if these were important files, Windows wouldn't list them as cleanable to save space.)
Close the disk cleanup.
Right click the clean.bat file and choose Edit.
In the first line where it says sageset:, change it to sagerun: then save and close the file.
Double click it again and will run a thorough cleanup of your C:/ drive, including some windows cache files that hold icon preferences for file types.
Reboot when it finishes and see if the icons aren't set right.

My Changed Icons Are Not Updating Properly

I've changed some folder icons by copy+pasting a jpeg into the 'Get Info' window, as per the normal way, but instead of seeing the image as an icon, I am just getting the universal jpeg icon.
In earlier versions of OS it may have taken opening the file in order to update it, but I'm getting nothing.
I'm uneasy with the fact an onlooker might confuse a movie+subtitle folder for a movies-by-director folder

Thanks abwhite57 for the suggestion. I was able to fix the problem before seeing your reply.
As I went thru the process of cleaning up the desktop icons, I noticed that moving one to the trash or to the finder would change the thumnail view back to it's proper appearance. So an icon would go from one that said "archive" back to thumnail view of it's webpage. So I then dragged the icon back onto the desktop. Problem solved.

After editing file in ACR 8.6 (Mac) , the file (NEF and XMP) modification dates are not updated

With both my Mac's, reset Photoshop C (2014) to previous version 2014.0. Now find that after editing file in ACR 8.6 (Mac) , the file (NEF and XMP) modification dates are not updated. Reloaded camera raw, etc., but still find modification dates are not updated, either using Finder or using Bridge to view dates. Editing other files, PSD, DNG, TIFF, etc., are updated and the information is correctly displayed.

Ok, not entirely sure what I did but it's now working (Bizarre!). The only thing I did was 'eject' the ACR 8.6 .dmg file from the finder side bar and restart PS CC, so that may have been where I was going wrong all along!
However, I now have another issue in that there is no preview of the shot in Finder on my iMac when I highlight the NEF file. I assume this is simply because Apple haven't yet released an update for the new D810 NEF files and so the computer doesn't know what it's looking at?!?
If anyone has any other ideas though, then I'm more than willing to listen.
Thanks again.

Thank you wjsten for your soon reply. Unfortunately on these days I'm in a country that Apple don't have any retail store here and for sake of time I prefer to fix it myself to DHL it to the nearest country to use its warranty. Do you have any idea how can I fix it? Do you think it's a software issue?

I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

That happened to me for a short period of time after I updated. It didn't do it with all apps, but it did it with a few here and there. Try a few basic standard troubleshooting steps. Close all apps and reset the iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
You can also try resetting all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
Hopefully it will be something simple, but don't rule out restoring the iOS software, if nothing else works, but start with this easy stuff first.

Files that "remember playback position" are not updating during sync

I listen to long spoken word MP3 files that are not podcasts. I have the "remember playback position" option checked on these files. I will add it to my library, sync it to my 2nd gen iPod shuffle, then go play it. The shuffle will remember the playback position fine. When I plug it into the computer again, iTunes used to update the files on my computer with the new playback position from the shuffle. This is not the case anymore. The local files will stay at the spot where they were at the original sync (0:00 in most cases). The files on the shuffle will then go back to 0:00 as well. This is very annoying. Any ideas?
P.S. I'm using the newest Shuffle that was released along with the 4th gen Nano (mine is the 2GB blue).
I know this is supposed to work because I had a silver 1GB shuffle in 2007 that worked fine.

ROFL I've named this thread "Shuffle Woes" in my favorites list. I seem to have fixed this strange and VERY elusive problem for now.
I discovered a duplicate music file that had the same metadata as another music file. The only difference between the two files was the name of the physical file on the hard disk AKA the file name. The metadata (tags) were exactly the same. Now that I've deleted one of the two files everything seems to magically work again. Don't ask me!
If the problem resurfaces again I'll be back. No more shuffle woes!

Just updated to iPhoto 2011; the source list icons are NOT in colour as shown - Should they be? (bit boring in grey!)

That is one of the changes to iPhoto '11
It is not an option - suggest to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

HT4972 Why Pages and numbers are not updating.

My pages and numbers are not updating for about a week now Why?

Some one else had a similar problem last night...same as yours. He claimed that Pages had been stuck trying to update for about week. I posted this and he said that it worked - which part he did not say - but give these things a try.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to resume the download.
If you have all of your Pages files backed up in iTunes or on your Mac, this might be the answer. Try deleting the waiting icon - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
I have deleted Pages a couple of times when I had issues with it and then reinstalled it. I even deleted a stalled Pages once and then tried the update successfully again after that. My files are always backed up in iTunes and on my Mac so I had no apprehension about deleting the waiting download.

This could be a plist corruption problem, but I'm not sure.
Sometimes, the preference list files get corrupted. You can usually just remove them and they'll get re-created. This may require you to reset certain settings. A notable exception to this is the Mail plist which actually stores the Library structure of your email accounts. Deleting the Mail plist will definitely cause lots of problems, but is recoverable.
The plist files are stored in the /Users/username/Library/Preferences/ folder. They usually have the naming convention of com.company.programname.plist.
A simple troubleshooting technique is to move a suspect plist file out of the Preferences folder and start up the app, again. It will re-create the plist from scratch.
In your case, I would try the com.apple.dock.plist. You can use Activity Monitor to kill the Dock app and it will restart. Or, you can log out and log back in.
There is a new file with Leopard called com.apple.dock.db. I haven't figured out what it does, but you might try moving it out. If anything gets worse, you can move the old file back in replacing the newly created one.
This all sound somewhat odd, so I don't know if this will help.

Reports are not updated on the dashboard

Hello guys
I have created some reports and dashboards in OBIEE. Everything looks good. The only problem is that they are not updated with new data as the days go by.
In other words, the next day and the day after when users log in to view the same report, they are still seeing the same old data where it should be updated already when new data were already loaded into the db. When clicking on refresh botton, it still didn't update..
I believe there must be some caching issues that causes it, but cache is needed as a part of performance tuning. So how would I be able to update the record and not slowing the performance for reports that are updating daily?
Please help

Hi,
This certainly sounds like a caching issue, you need to decide on a method for purging the cache of stale entries. My personal favourite is a custom informatica WF added as a following task to the DAC execution plan. This WF calls as OBDC function against the Analytics ODBC which purges the cache, ensuring that there are no stale entries after the ETL has finished.
For more info on caching please see my blog entry here:

File icons are missing from my ML desktop. Name is there but the icon is missing. How do I fix this?

Some of my file icons are missing from the Mountain Lion desktop. The file name is there but not the icon. The file can be opened when the words are double clicked. The files show up properly in Adobe Bridge. These are Photoshop files. How do I fix the problem?

Get Info (cmd-i) on one of these files. In the "Open with" tab is PS selected?
If that's so it may be some corruption LaunchServices.These are only cache files but can get corrupted.
Launch /Utilities/Terminal and copy & paste this at the command line to rebuild LaunchServices:
(EDIT: Be sure to copy the entire line of code it is a slider)
Code:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
Then press return. Wait until terminal returns to the command line. Quit Terminal. After that, log out and back in or restart. Let us know

When I select my iPod touch in iTunes the buttons are inactive when I try to sort by name, artist etc. Also about half of the links under 'file' etc are not active.

When I select my iPod touch in iTunes the buttons are inactive when I try to sort by name, artist etc. Also about half of the links under 'file' etc are not active.

Further to my question, when I plug in and select my iPad 2 I don't have the same problem. I have restored the settings on my iPod Touch and updated both iTunes and iPod Touch software and restarted my iPod touch. Nothing has made any difference.
