Preview 5.0.1 (503) no longer displays inspector or Show Color- windows

Recently, when I command
+Show Inspector+
or
+Adjust Color…+
* *no window appears*.
Reading this topic alongside
Preferences for Phone: blank in Address Book 5.0.1 (864), Mac OS X 10.6.2,
I wonder if a recent installation of third party software is causing problems …
Environment
Preview 5.0.1 (503) in Mac OS X 10.6.2 (10C540)

Works here. Quit Preview, move all of the com.apple.Preview preference (plist) files from your user's /Library/Preferences/ and /ByHost subfolder to the Desktop, relaunch Preview, and see if that fixes things. If so, delete the moved files and reset Preview's preferences. If not, create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if it works there. Report back.

Photoshop CC 2014 No Longer Displaying Blue In The Color Picker Or Workspace, Only Purples.

Photoshop CC 2014 is no longer displaying blue in the color picker and on screen, only purple, violet, magenta, etc. I think it started about 3 days ago. Our current model 2.9 GHz iMac with NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1024 MB Graphics Card and 8 GB RAM is calibrated to 100% via Spyder 4 Express, and reflects that in every application except Photoshop CC 2014, so I know it isn't the monitor. Blue is the primary color we use in many of our designs, so this is of upmost importance. I really appreciate any help you could provide, If this isn't fixed ASAP, I don't know what we'll do.
Thank you so much!

Ok, so old files are purple, but new files are blue.
I took a screenshot of my Photoshop work are using Cmd-Shift-3 and it places the screen shot as a png file on my desktop, which I upload with my reply via the Camera icon in the forum reply toolbar.
I loaded a new RGB/8 file, set the bottom status bar to indicate the color profile (sRGB) and made sure the file tab on the top is visible, so I can see it is RGB/8. Then I used Cmd-shift-k to show my Color Settings before taking the screenshot. The point is to try and see where the problem is coming from, so make a screenshot just like mine with your old purple file.

My display does only show colors, no picture anymore. What to do?

Hp6500A E710-f shortcut icon no longer displays all-in-one options windows 7

Had icon on desktop identified as HP Officejet E710-f that when clicked displayed multiple options with link access inlcuding access to scan, status of printer, fax history, cartridge print levels, and several others that I ddin't use often and cannot recall.
I did something, don't know what, and now when I click on icon Iit takes me to printer devices screen on control panel. Don't know how to get to ink level for print cartridtges and have to use separate icon to get to scan function. Can someone tell me how to get back previois shortcut response?

I understand you have lost options to check ink levels and to scan. I would uninstall current software and reinstall with updated drivers.

Let me know how it goes.

DNG files created with LR4 no longer display thumbnails w/ FastPictureViewer & Win7

I've been using the FastPictureViewer Codec pack so that DNG and camera RAW files show as thumbnails in Explorer for quite some time. Upon upgrading to LR4, DNG files no longer display as thumbnails, but as the generic Windows icon for an image.
Upon researching the issue, and upgrading the Codecs from the supplier (which still did not fix the issue), the supplier tells me the following:
What we solved [in the update] was a crash with the new files. Adobe did not document their
changes, so there is not much we can do except ignore the files. This is
what happens when owners of proprietary formats decide to change stuff
without notice
If you turn off the "fast load" and "lossy" options the DNG will still be
created following the published 1.3 specification and will work with 3rd
party software including ours.
The "new DNGs" are for Adobe private use only at the moment. We don't know
(beyond vague promises on employees personal blogs) if they will ever
document what they did and publish an updated specification, they are
certainly under no obligation to do so. The decision they took not to
release updated DNG specs even before LR4 came out was a deliberate one.
While I resolved the problem by turning "fast load" off, I find it highly disturbing that Adobe has made undocumented changes to the DNG format that break 3rd party software. I thought the whole idea of DNG was that it was an OPEN FORMAT and was to prevent situations such as this. At least this is how they sold it to the public and their argument against "proprietary camera manufactuer RAW formats" that could "change at any time".

Actually JS, RAW files converted to DNG with fast load checked from LR4.0 are read, thumbnails and full images are displayed in preview and with Finder in OSX Lion 10.7.3, along with keywords, EXIF data etc. I don't know whether the preview is the RAW or the fast loaded jpeg
Not that it helps you
Adobe mentioned that they will be making the 1.3 data specs available in the next couple of months, I canna remember the link offhand, and it was a formal post, not an employee blog
Life changes, things upgrade, that is the way of things, but it is very frustrating.

Illustrator no longer displays the white channel of a placed DCS/.eps.

I should have spoke up sooner because I thought this would get fixed pretty quickly but I just upgraded to CS6 and it's still broken. I use Photoshop to generate color separations for screen printing. We do simulated spot process which means we print the prodomient colors of the image rather than gambling that CMYK will work. We print white because garments are often any color you can imagine. So I use the DCS.eps format alot. I place this linked in Illustrator. Up untill CS3 this worked fine. I skipped 4, but upgraded to 5. Five doesn't display the white channel. (These files are Multichannel mode, each channel is a Spot channel. saved as dcs/eps) I have not tried output. It may print fine. The thing is I end up with a client perched on my shoulder like a buzzard and if the white parts of the design or the white channel/screen isn't their to support the top/upper colors I look like I don't know what I'm doing, or I left the white out, etc. I've been in both offset printing and screen printing and T&T (trinkets and trash) for a long time. Messing up paper is one thing. Messing up an Under Armor or Nike or you name it garment is a whole different ballgame so they are pretty tense when it comes to what they see. I already have to explain that it looks pixelated and rough because it's an 8 bit preview but will print sharp.
What are the odds of getting this fixed? It worked like a charm for years (Illustrator 4 to CS3)
Any help with this would be appreciated.

Evidently, Illustrator is creating its own preview, rather than using the one embedded in the EPS.
Create a Multichannel file containing several spot color channels. Make the images of the various spot channels overlap each other. Select white as the color for one of the spot channels. Set each channel's Solidity at 100%. Save as DCS2 with 8-bit TIF preview.
Import the DCS2 file into Corel Draw. Select the Place As EPS option, and it displays the dithered 8-bit composite preview embedded in the EPS, and the spot white channel shows.
If you import the very same file into Illustrator, it's as if Illustrator interprets the content of the EPS (i.e.; a stack of grayscale images) and displays its own preview as if Overprint Preview were turned on. In other words, Illustrator's "preview" of the file seems to act as if you had:
1. Saved the DCS2 file as multifile.
3. Imported the individual grayscale separation files.
4. Applied spot color Swatches to them and set each of them to overprint.
5. Turned on Overprint Preview.
Illustrator knows nothing of individual ink opacity. So as Illustrator's Overprint Preview always does, the white image (being set to overprint) disappears. Note that's not the only difference. The other separation images also display as overprinting, so areas of overlap change color, despite their "Solidity" (opacity) having been set to 100% in Photoshop.
Pretty much the same thing occurs if you save as PS CMYK with spot color channels.
If you place the image (either the DCS or the PS) in Illustrator and print separations to the Adobe PDF virtual printer, you will see that the spot white separation does print, and its image overprints the other seps, as it should. The problem is getting a reasonable preview to show your customer. One way to do that is to print a composite PDF from Photoshop and place that into Illustrator, just to serve as a temporary preview for layout purposes.
I'm on Windows these days, so don't know if there are caveats on MacOS regarding "printing" to PDF.
Just more of Adobe's "cross application integration" of these CS bundles.

Since upgrading to Mavericks, 10.9.1, pictures that come attached to emails no longer display. There is only a blank space that after about 1 minute, has a small box with a question mark. How can I go back to attached images?

Since upgrading to Mavericks, 10.9.1, pictures that come attached to emails no longer display. There is only a blank space that after about 1 minute, has a small box with a question mark. Double clicking on the box will open the image in a separate window. It's very slow and tedious for multiple images. How can I go back to attached and displayed images? If I click on "Forward", the images appear instantly in the email to be forwarded.

Scott,
My problem seemed to fix itself. Or, by shutting down the computer one night, instead of putting it to sleep, may have reset something. Since updating to Mavericks, I always (or usually) let the computer sleep overnight or anytime I'm walking away from it. A few days ago, I was updating notes for my kids about how to find all my stuff and how to turn on my computer, so I wanted to rewrite the start-up procedures for the iMac, just in case they ever need to. Well, I shut it down one night so the following morning, I could write down each step. Lo and behold, the images, etc. are all there again! Solved, but I'm not sure why.

My artwork no longer displays correctly after updating to iTunes 10.5.

With the most recent iTunes update, the artwork is no longer displayed properly. The songs on my hard drive display fine in iTunes. However, the artwork for songs on my iPod do not display in iTunes (I have limited space on my computer's hard drive, so when I manually add songs to my iPod, I delete them from my hard drive, therefore the songs on my drive and on my iPod are different). Thankfully, the artwork does display properly on the iPod itself. So it is not a corrupted artwork issue. When I am playing a song from my iPod through iTunes, it WILL show the artwork, but ONLY if the playing song is highlighted. Once I highlight another song, the artwork display window goes blank. This is regardless of whether the artwork window is set to "Now Playing" or "Selected Item." Also, if I change the window setting to "Now Playing" and I highlight a song other than the one playing, the window automatically reverts itself back to "Selected Item" and again no longer displays the artwork (unless I go back and highlight the currently playing track). Additionally, when adding artwork through the "Get Info" display for groups of songs, it will not display the artwork in the "Get Info" box after I have added it to the file(s) as it used to do prior to updating the software. This is true for songs both on the iPod and on my hard drive. The artwork is indeed being added, because when I click "ok" and then play (and highlight) the song, the new artwork displays. This is really frustrating! (I should note that I tend not to use "automatically download artwork" because most of the music I listen to is quite obscure and often does not have artwork available by iTunes without me adding it myself).

ICal no longer displays caldav calendar but it's still there...

I find myself to have a strange problem... iCal no longer display a caldav calendar (which is my work exchange calendar via davmail app). But, it still appears to be there. In iTunes it is still listed in the calendars which can be synchronized with my iPhone. In fact, it is still synchronizing with my iPhone and up to date. If I add a new identical caldav calender in iCal, iCal only displays one calendar, as if there are no more, but in iTunes then two identical calendars are listed and on my iPhone all events are displayed double...
Any suggestion to get my calendar displayed in iCal again, or alternatively, how to remove the hidden agenda from the system so that I can resetup the calendar? By the way, I also have an MobileMe calendar running.
I look forward to receiving some hints as I am not yet able to solve this one.
Cheers!

Problem solved by myself Rebuild the calendar database by exporting the ical archive and then importing it. After that the hidden agenda was gone in Itunes. After a fresh set up of the caldav calendar in iCal it was back in iCal and iTunes. The mysterious ghost agenda is gone. Hope that this explanation may help someone else in the future.

IMovie no longer displays my iTunes or my iPhoto libraries. Can anyone help me get them back?

My iTunes and my iPhoto libraries no longer display in iMovie. I have to drag and drop directly from the applications. Can anyone help me get the them back?

I tried to restore from back up but this was the first time I connected my phone to my computer so when I ran backup my contacts did not return. When I go to mobileme.com my calandar shows up but not my contacts. I could cry.

Desktop is no longer displaying all the colors on it's monitor.

My desktop computer is no longer displaying all the colors on its montior. I've replaced the monitor with a known good one and the problem remains the same. The desktop is 6 months old and when I purchased it, the first one had to be replaced because of this exact same issue. This appears to be a common problem. Is anyone else experienced this is issue and has HP recalled any of these specific desktop's because of it?

Wjile there can be no consolation with your plight, you do have the replacement option under warrant. BTW, it does help if you state the exact model or product #. Saying a "series" is like called out that I had a Chevy.

My printer menu is no longer displaying in English. I can't read the display to try to troubleshoot

My boss' printer HP Color LaserJet CP2025 - menu no longer displays in English. I can't read the display to troubleshoot or reset. Is there another way to change the setting?

I have not verified these steps, but this is what I located:
A. To change the display language back to English, please perform the following steps:
1. Press the right arrow 2 times, press the OK button (you should be in the System Setup menu).
2. Press the OK button again (you should be in Language).
3. Press the right arrow until you see something that may be English, press OK button. The menu is a continuous loop, so if you miss it the first time the option will return.

How do I solve this problem:Photo's no longer displayed (Adobe Flash player 13,0,0,214) in online photo album maker (Webprint.nl) after update to Firefox 29.0.1

After I (automatically) updated to Mozilla Firefox version 29.0.1, the online photo album crreator of Webprint.nl no longer displayes the photo's that I uploaded.
The photo's are displayed again when I use an older Firefox browser (version 28.*) from an another computer. This is my old (WIndows Vista) computer that I use when my new Windows 7 computer has problems.
It looks like the new Firefox has a problem with Adobe Flash player 13,0,0,214; which is the newest version according to Adobe.
Please help!
