Picture Previews are blurry

Does anyone know what might be causing my thumbnails on my comp. to look blurry? When I open the picture full size in any application, it looks fine but in iPhoto and in my Pictures folder there are a lot of blurry thumbnail previews. Not all the pictures are like that, just some and they are all from 3 different cameras. thanks!

I have a latest generation MacBook Pro retina, so that should be fine.
It actually worked when I purged the cache for this folder a second time. The blur went away.
The first time I had done a "select all" images to show Bridge which previews I needed rebuilt - not necessary, maybe that was an overload for Bridge.

  • PC and OS switch, now Bridge previews are blurry

    Yesterday I (well, my son--not me!) moved my Photoshop CS4, Bridge, ACR, LR2 to a new PC. Operating system changed from XP to Windows7.
    Previews are blurry; I cleared cache, in Preferences, I've got Monitor Size Previews selected, Software Rendering Deselected (Selecting it made no difference). Video Card is GeForceGTX 285.
    Thanks!

    Some individual jpg's are blurry. If I right click and delete cache for  that individual image, I get the crisp preview. What gives? I thought  that clearing the cache meant clearing all of the cache? I can live with  this.   All cache is not created equal.
    There is the central cache which is the main cache and you can purge it in the cache window.  If you have cache exported to folders that cache is not purged.  To purge both cache you need to go to Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder.
    If you get no preview for CR2  files you probably have either no Camera Raw (ACR), have more than  one ACR or have ACR in wrong folder.
    Open PS and in Help click on about plug-ins and camera raw.   Will tell you what version you have.  Should be 5.x for CS4.

  • Previews are Blurry in Bridge CS6

    On several occasions I have seen that some images are previewed blurry in Bridge CS6.
    I have set the preview to full resolution/quality, so this is not the issue.
    When it happens, it happens like this:
    1. I have a layered file, and the preview is good and sharp.
    2. Then I sharpen, and the preview is blurry.
    This has occurred numerous times. I thought the preview was corrupted, so I deleted the file, and hauled it back from the trash, so a new preview would be built.
    Again, this new preview would again be blurry. (Out of 20 files, two had a blurry preview - and the files themselves were NOT blurry).
    Flattening such a file does not help. While the flattened file is also sharp in Photoshop, its preview remains blurry. A copied file also has the blurry preview.
    I don't see any correlation with image dimensions, file sizes. Some images just randomely are previewed blurry in Bridge CS6.
    The only correlation I see is that it is ALWAYS SHARPENED IMAGES that are previewed blurry (the unsharpened versions always look much sharper in Bridge CS6)
    What can I do to have Bridge CS6 preview ALL images correctly?
    edit: I purged the cache for this folder, and the rebuilt preview is again blurry.
    Even worse, now 50 out of 100 images have blurry previews.
    How can I get previews that I can work with?

  • When I burn a CD and then try and print pictures they are blurry. Why?

    Pictures are very clear on computer, Very clear when I print from memory card. However, I burn to CD and they print very blurry. I burn from a Mac computer.

    Does this question have something to do with iPhoto by chance? If so, I would suggest starting a new thread in the iPhoto forum for help with that software.

  • Pictures imported are blurry when viewing as slideshow

    Hello everyone, I am new to this this business and am trying to create a picture slide show but am running into the problem of the picture which I have imported and added to the slide show being fuzzy when I view it on my laptop. Here are the specifics and what I have already tried. Thank you all in advance.
    1. Have Adobe premiere elements 3
    2. Pictures originally scanned in at 200 dpi, have also placed same picture at 400 and 800 dpi scan into slide show for comparison
    3. Picture in question is a 3x5 and I have not touched any settings and have left them at defaults
    4. Picture is in good condition and is in jpeg format
    neubs

    Thank you Paul, Steve.
    Ok. I just checked my size in terms of pixels, at.....
    200 dpi= 680 x 1010
    300 dpi= 1020 x 1546
    With that said, I am assuming that the higher the dpi count, the bigger the size (pixel wise). Could it be a issue of the picture being used "being too big" and PE is automatically converting it to what the preset optimum dimensions are? As a result, making the pictures blurry?
    -In terms of resizing, how should I go about doing that? I have Photoshop Elements 5, would that be a good program to adjust the size to about 1000 x 750 pixels?
    -When you say render and "hitting enter," when and where do I do that: when I am doing with the slideshow and I export, or how/when do I render and what is the procedure?
    -The slideshow will be shown on a projector. What is the best method with the quality of the show in mind to show it....Direct link from laptop, AVI, DVD?
    Again, a big thank you to everyone in advance.

  • Pictures that I have stored on my laptop are fine but all of the pictures online are blurry and I just need to know how to fix this problem?

    This has just started happening recently but all the pictures online look very pixely. I've started to notice this on facebook and other websites like Bing.com. I can't figure out what the problem is and have tried messing with my screen resolution but nothing seems to be working.

    I am having the same problem after ugrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.4.
    I found on the net a guy who says to do the following "log in as root and trash the old user icon images file. Then copy the folder froma ML factory disk image and restart". I can't get back to the original post-- tried buy it no longer seems to be there.
    OK-- I don't understand how to do any of that.  I need to know: 1.  what is the name of the folder I am supposed to trash what is the path to get to it. 2. Where do I get the new folder to replace it with and where do I put it.  
    I would really appreciate help. Thank you.

  • I recently received my new iPhone 4 from my carrier since my old one was stolen. I restored my new iPhone from my old iPhones iCloud back up but now all the pictures that were stored in my old phone are blurry in my new phone. Please help!

    Luckily, using the "Find My iPhone" app, I was able to scare the thieves into bringing my iPhone back to the place they stole it from (Dave and Busters..on my BIRTHDAY OF ALL DAYS). So now, $169 later (deductible for replacement iPhone), I have both my 1st iPhone and my replacement. On my first iPhone, I have all of my pictures saved and they are very clear, but when I restored my replacement iPhone from my original iPhones iCloud backup, all the pictures that I took in my original iPhone are blurry! I thought about backing up my original iPhone through iTunes and then resetting my replacement iPhone and restoring it from my original iPhones settings but I dont want to lose all of my new pictures I took. I know this sounds confusing (well, it looks confusing, since you cant actually hear me) but I could use all the help I can get!

    No such thing has occurred.  iPhones do not backup to one another.
    It is not possible to backup a different iPhone from the one being updated.
    If the iPhone was restored with a backup from a different device, restore it again from the correct backup.

    Pay attention when restoring the iPhone and select the correct backup to restore from.

  • When i import my pictures into lightroom, they are blurry,  when i click develop they automatically

    when i import my pictures into lightroom, they are blurry,  when i click develop they automatically focus, but when i click library, they blur again...  i use canon and jpeg, why is this and how do i fix it?

    Yes,   in library ive zoomed into 1:1 and the image is nice and sharp, but when i zoomed out, the sharpness disapears and the image is blurry again.  I see a lot of people are having this problem. I also called adobe and talked to someone and they had no idea whats going on,

  • One day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    i installed ios 7.after  that my primary cam, one day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    This advice will sound like a joke or prank, but believe me it worked on my iPhone 5 and my daughter's.  The lens mechanism got stock on each of our iPhones.  We found a post on these message boards that said to hold the iPhone about 6 inches above a table or counter top and drop it so that it lands flat on it's back.  Now try the camera ...Fixed!  It has been more than six months now and neither of our iPhones have ever experienced the problem again.
