No thumbnails or covers

Ok new problem, hope this one is an easy fix.
Now that iTunes is up and running, when I do a sync I dont have any thumbnails (or album covers)on my iTouch for music or video.
All that shows for video is a grey tv icon and for music the normal blank album cover.
I've never had this problem before and I've always had thumbnails for albums and video.
So again I'am stuck, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

In the lower left corner of the Import window is a small triangle pointing up or down. Clicking on it expands the window to show thumbnails. IIRC. on first install, the import window opens in the collapsed (minimal) position. Could this be your problem?

Slideshow Captions

I have over 2000 photos I need to build into multiple slide shows. Each photo has its own unique caption which I have to type in photo by photo, one at a time.
How do I enter the captions for each photo when the thumbnails are covering up the lightbox. Moving the thumbnails all over the place is not a particularly efficient solution.
Thanks.
Andy.

Hi Harley,
You can bring the lightbox to the front.

When dragging a thumbnail from one place to another, the origional thumbmail ends up in other locations. Sometimes the same thumbnail covers up other thimbmails.

Since I downloaded latest version of iTunes yesterday, most pictures and documents have blue boxes covering most of thumbnails. How do I get rid of them, I hate it.

Since I downloaded latest version of iTunes on my Windows 7 PC, most pictures and documents have blue boxes covering a big portion of the thumbnail images. I hate it, how do I get rid of them?

this is total bullshit. so frustrated with this nonsense.

Thumbnails on my desk top have LARGE check marks mostly covering the picture. I have processed thes picts in Lightroom and Photoshop 11

Opening from my desk top thumbnails have a LARGE checkmark covering most of the picture. I have used both Lightroom and Photoshop 11 to process these picts,

When I open Lightroom and view the thumbnails the check marks are there.
So when you're seeing the check marks, do this:
1. On Mac: Type Shift - Command - 3. This will place a .png screenshot on your desktop.
2. On Windows: Type Windows-Logo - Print Screen (sometimes labeled PrtScr). This will place a .png screenshot in your Pictures\Screenshots.

Why are the thumbnails on the comments sections of blogs covering the text in safari?

Why doe my iPhone make the size of the thumbnails so large that they cover up the text in the comments section of different blogs? They're mobile sites and they appear this way in safari and chrome. This is a new occurrence after the latest update.

You may have zoomed the page(s) by accident by using "Zoom Text Only" (i.e. not full page zoom).
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
*<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl/Command+0 (zero))
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.

Covers not resizing for thumbnail view

Hi,
How/when/where does the thumbnail png file for ADE get created? I have some epubs ebooks that are not displaying correctly. Instead of the cover being resized for the thumbnail, it is being cropped. On other books, however, it works fine. I can't see the difference in the actual html of the ebook. I did verify that it is the actual png file in the ADE thumbnails folder that is incorrect.
Help?

Not a problem with it sounding snippy. The key bit for you situation is was that it was rendering it at the thumbnail size (90x130, iirc), and as you found out it if your HTML was making some bad assumptions (usually in the size attributes for the image element) that it would be rendering in a larger viewport, that would be causing the cropping.
What I didn't know is if it was your authored content or not, because if it wasn't then the easier fix is to just replace the thumbnail image in the DE Thumbnails Directory.

Podcast thumbnails coming in as itunes album art covers?

Some of my album art fron iTunes is replacing the Podcast Thumbnails.....

Don't touch the Artist field — select the entire album, Get Info (command-I), and enter the primary artist's name in the Album Artist field. This tells iTunes the album is a single artist's work, but that other artists feature on individual tracks. If you then sort on the Album column (including "Album by Artist" and "Album by Year"), the album will have a single cover art associated with it.

My Aperture 2.1 has gone into a continual thumbnail mode. I left the computer, a MacBook Pro, run all night, about 12 hours and it is still making thumbnails. I tried reloading Aperture 2.1, but that did not change anything. I have also turned the system off, for a period of time, and then turning it back on, when I click on Aperture, it comes up and locks in the thumbnail mode. I can view my stored pictures, even modify them, but it still says thumbnails.
I got in this mode by trying to import "one jpeg photo", from a scanned slide using a Nikon Scan4 IS5000ED scanner. I had saved the scan to my desktop before I tried to import it.

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Thumbnail not showing for artist view on music app

Ever since iOS 7 (now on iOS 8.1.1), the thumbnails in the artist view of the music app on my iPhone 5 sometimes shows up but not for all artists.
I have tried restoring iPhone as new phone without restoring a backup (as I thought the backup may include the problem), restarted iTunes and iPhone, restarted MacBook on OS X Lion. Removed music, re-sync'd. Manually added album covers, re-sync'd.
Al album covers show, but artist view where a promo-type picture of the artist is usually shown does not work for all artists.
Would have been more reliable if iOS could have simply used the latest album cover as the artist thumbnail.

It's a universal glitch with ios5. With any double album (i.e. Greatest Hits Vol.1 and Greatest Hits Vol. 2), the 2nd album is not coming up under "Artist". It's there under "Albums" and "Songs", but NOT "Artists".

Why can I see all my thumbnails in iPhoto but none of the actual jpegs?

So I can see all of my thumbnails in iPhoto but when I click on them there is just a black screen. I also can't import photos from my iPhone into iPhoto, it says it doesn't recognize jpegs AND I also can't see/edit/or add any artwork in iTunes as well. In Coverflow or any other possible album art view, all of the album covers are solid black squares. This problem happened the same time that my iPhoto issue happened as well.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Not sure about the issues in iTunes and elsewhere but let's test the iPhoto Library:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Suddenly all my thumbnails got a white border. How do I change that?

I have always used thumbnails of the different eBook covers I design, to see how they work in a small size. All the alias' of all the eBook I've designed is on my desktop, so I can compare them. Suddenly the new pictures I store either get no thumbnail at all(alias') or they get this annoying white border around them(originals), all the old one's are still perfect without border. Now I can't compare the new one's with the others, because the white border makes the picture in the thumbnail smaller. And yes I have clicked "Show icon preview" in view options and it doesn't matter where I save them(folders or desktop) or where they came from(Photoshop, preview, iPhoto or directly from my camera) it happens to all picture thumbnails. This new white border is on jpeg, png, tiff and pdf. Actually the white border is a bit smaller on the pdf thumbnail, but the same on the rest.
Hope someone have found a way out of this?

Firefox only has the basic setting for the default action to divert the action to a new tab or window or current tab, so if that behavior has changed then it is likely that an extension has caused this.
See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
*1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
For links opened via JavaScript you can look at this pref:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

How to export in pdf format a book including the front and back covers?

I am trying to save in pdf format a book created in lightroom but unfortunately the saved file contains only the internal pages but not the covers. Is maybe there any setting to do?
Thanks bye,
Alberto

Not directly from Lightroom unfortunately. I am assuming you want the pdf as the final output to send to people instead of a physical book from a commercial printing company. To achieve this you can fairly easily combine the pdfs outside of Lightroom. On the Mac, you can do this in Preview where you simply drag the page thumbnails between pdf documents. On a PC you need to use a program like Acrobat.

How to disable annoying thumbnails when searching in preview

Open a PDF in Preview.
Search for something.
The annoying thumbnails appear, shrinking your page size or covering something else on your desktop.
I want to compare pdfs side-by-side, and the stupid thumbnail trough makes the window too wide.
How do you disable preview from popping out the thumbnail panel when searching?

Yes, you can click "Content Only" in that menu and the thumbnails go away. But they reappear immediately when you use Command-G to go to the next search result.
I can find no way to just make them go away permanently.
Also, in yet another departure from common GUI practice, there is no way to un-check those menu items by clicking on them. You have to click one of the other items. In other words, they behave like radio buttons in that they are mutually exclusive, yet they are displayed as if you could select more than one of them.

Thumbnails in Aperture are Really Messed Up

Having a ton of trouble with both Aperture and iPhoto. The thumbnails in both products are showing up in a random mix/match of landscape and portrait shots, and random order. I've read the suggestions on this site, and have tried using both the Photos > Generate Thumbnails and Photos > Generate Preview features. Both temporarily fix the Thumbnails in the current view (ie the ones I can see), but as soon as I start to scroll, its back to a mess again.
It seems the next step is to rebuild the database ... but what I don't understand is WHY Aperture would ever be in this condition in the first place? Rebuilding any database is not a small step to take. And its not clear this would even solve the problem. I mean, Aperture is worthless without a reliable thumbnail, so how is it possible for the product to show a thumbnail for one image when the actual image is something else. This is about as basic as it gets!
In other words, it feels like a really heinous bug in the product, that is likely to resurface if I continue doing whatever I did to get here in the first place.
Anybody have some suggestions/explanations on why it would behave this way, and how to *permanently* fix the problem? Thanks in advance!

Try the following, in order:
Reboot.
Delete your Aperture User Preferences (commonly helps for UI snafus).
Repair your Library
Rebuild your Library
Revert to a backed up copy of your Library.
The middle three are standard Apple Aperture trouble-shooting steps. They are covered here.
If you wish to file a report with Apple, use "Aperture ▹ Provide Aperture Feedback".
These things happen. The OS X environment is very complex. I would fix it and forget it. If the problem returns, you could start trying to trouble-shoot. Trouble-shooting is laborious.
I have never had any problems with Repair Library or with Rebuild Library.
As with all computer files, you should never use one without having a complete back-up.
Are you using a second or third monitor? Do you use any non-Apple display devices?
