Before I share the app I use I have something to say.
You have lousy forum etiquette. You constantly post asking things you could easily do research for yourself, both here in the Apple Discussion forums and on the web. You rarely show any appreciation for the help people give to you by marking their posts as Helpful or Solved. In fact you rarely even return and mark your original posts as Answered, you just ignore them and move on to post another question. You obviously don't read the links people provide because you ask another question that has usually been answered in the link.
You received a printed User Guide with your Mac and there is a Help utility in the Finder, as well as many OS X and 3rd party apps, in the Help Menu, that answers many of the questions you post. There is a Google search box in the upper right corner of every Safari window that has a toolbar, I, and I'm sure others here who assist you, often find the answers in barely a minute by typing the topic in that search box and pressing enter.
Most of the apps you ask about are available at Version Tracker. It also has a search box. Plus the apps are arranged in topics, as well as the newest postings.
Please go back and mark all your previous posts that are answered, as well as, show some appreciation to the folks who helped you with answers and suggestions.
I use ThumbsUp. It is free, a Universal binary and available on Version Tracker. Go to the Preferences/Create and choose the Icons for Originals. Then you can highlight groups of photos and just drag & drop them on the ThumbsUp Icon in your Apps folder and it will open and start creating a Photo Icon for each photo. Small groups are almost instant. I have done as many as 150 in one drag & drop.

When previewing images by clicking on the thumbnail in an Event for example, I've been finding that many images preview in a 'zoomed in' way so only a small part of the photos is previewed in a highly magnified view.

When previewing images by clicking on the thumbnail in an Event for example, I've been finding that many images preview in a 'zoomed in' way so only a small part of the photos is previewed in a highly magnified view.
Initially I could find no cause. Then I tried right click - Edit and on the affected images, always get this warning:
"Image Cannot Be Edited - This photo was previously edited with another application or with an early version of Iphoto. Duplicate this photo to edit it." and a "Duplicate To Edit" Button is displayed.
The external Editor defined for iPhoto is Adobe Photoshop Elements.
Now, I reckon the MUST be others out there affected by this same apparent Preview bug, yet my searches have not revealed any answers. Also seems impossible to find a contact number for adobe???
Thanks

Spotlight lists items and shows preview images. BUT what about showing the path/location address of an item in my computer.
Especially important if I've put the item in the wrong folder and what to locate it without multi-steps. iMac OS X 10.5 was more useful.
Old OSX Spotlight function automatically displayed path/location within the machine: e.g. desktop/folder/sub-folder/item.
Can I make Spotlight show the path?

Press option-command and the path is displayed at the bottom of the little preview window. Press command-return and the enclosing folder opens.

Previewing images in forms 11g from the server

Hi All,
i need your help in this issue please
i've just migrated my application from forms 6i to forms 11g
there is a function in my application that i used that previewed images that exists on a network drive that are used in an image gallary
now i don't have this setup as the application is hosted on the weblogic server
i want an alternative method that i can use to preview the images from the server
the old way was:
read_image_file('.\default_image.jpg','any','preview.image_preview'); --this shows a default image if no image was selected
if :search_results.file_path is not null then
     read_image_file(:preview.image_path||'\'||:search_results.file_path,'any','preview.image_preview');     -- this shows the image that we retreived it's name from the database but it exists on the file system
end if;
i've configured the webutil but i don't know what method to use
also another functionality that i lost in the migration is opening a browser window to preview the final article that the editor entered using my application
the old way was:
declare
     url varchar2(1000);
begin
     url:='http://10.100.100.197:55/allcontent/allcontentimages/'||:SEARCH_RESULTS.FILE_PATH||'';
WIN_API_SHELL.WinExec('"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" '||url||'',
WIN_API.SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED,TRUE);
Exception when NO_DATA_FOUND then
MESSAGE('CAN NOT FIND THE FILE');
end;
now ithe WIN_API_SHELL is not working as i'm on the server side and i don't know the alternative
please advice

Hello Nivin
If you want to read an file from local drive or from netwrok drive then before reading images please make sure that do you have full rights and have you mapped that network drive .
after that you use read_image_file built in(). secondly you configure WEBUTIL package.
please visit the following link for configuring webutil.
I configured my webutil package from this link and its worked fine.

I am unable to get same preview image colors in Bridge and Lightroom

I am unable to get same file preview in Bridge and Lightroom. The Lightroom preview image (in both the Library and Develop) is more de-saturated. But the exported/saved jpegs match. If I try to match the Lightroom preview image to the Bridge preview image, the resulting Lightroom export colors are off. I have tried this with images with no changes and with changes and the result is the same. I have Lightroom 5.6 and CR 8.6. I am using the latest version of Bridge.
I contacted Adobe support and followed all instructions to try to fix but the problem remains. This comment was made after several solutions were tried, including updating Lightroom. :
Adobe: there would be little difference in case of preview of Bridge CC and Lightroom 5. However, after exporting it would be same. Both use different technology at the background and work in a different way. The preview which you see in lightroom is not the actual image but incase of Bridge you see the actual image ( original ). That's the reason there is a color variation between previews.
Me: But how can I then use the Lightroom preview to get accurate colors when processing a RAW file? If I do adjustments to the RAW file in Lightroom it looks different when exported. That doesn't seem to make sense when Lightroom is designed for photograhy
Adobe: Please check in develop module of lightroom.
Me: Nothing changes in the develop mode. The image looks the same as in the preview/Library mode.
This screenshot shows the unmodified images in Develop (Lightroom) and ACR (Bridge). The color differences are significant.
Lightroom exported jpeg file, unmodified from preview image in Develop (which looks like Bridge preview image not the Lightroom preview)
Bridge saved jpeg file, unmodified from preview image in ACR
Any suggestions on what I need to do to Lightroom to make it show accurate colors. If not, I don't see any point in using it to process files.
Thanks, Marie

Bridge is just a browser. It displays according to the embedded color profile but assumes sRGB for all untagged images.
In Lightroom library previews use Adobe RGB and in Develop the working space is Pro Photo RGB.
The real question is why use both Bridge and Lightroom. Stick to one, not both.

How can I see preview images of STN files in CS4?

I save many of my art files as STN (Genuine Fractals) files so I can print on demand at various sizes. I used to be able to see tiny preview images of these files; now, using CS4 32-bit or 64-bit with Windows 7 64-bit OS, all I see in my STN folder is little blank page icons - no images. I have descriptive filenames, but still - it would REALLY help to be able to quickly scan the images for the one I want to open in PhotoShop. I used to be able to see these preview STN images. Help??

Theoretically, to see Sting format (.stn) thumbnails, you'd have to get a codec from the OnOne software people and install it into Windows Explorer as a shell extension. This has nothing to do with Photoshop.
I know of no such codec available, at least not for .x64 systems (64 bit Explorer). I haven't seen .stn thumbnails for a long time, and I currently have their Perfect Resize 7 product.
But it seems to me that a long ago when I used a 32 bit OS there was a time that I could see .stn thumbnails. Perhaps they once provided a 32 bit codec with their product, or I had a 3rd party codec that understood the format.
It would be a great question to pose to OnOne Software. If you do, please report back here what they say.

Can you change the size of the preview images on an Apple TV without changing video resolution?

I have a 32 inch LCD TV. My room is relatively large and I can't easily see the preview images or read the text on the TV across the room. Is it possible to change the size of preview images in the menu screens without increasing the resolution of the TV itself? I think this should be possible, but can't seem to find a way to do it.

No that's not something you can do on the Apple TV.
If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here.

Scanning in Mavericks? I can no longer use the scanning function in my HP Officejet 4500. HP says to go through Preview, Image Capture, or Print/Scan in System Prefs. Still doesn't work. Any ideas/similar experiences?

Scanning in Mavericks? I can no longer use the scanning function in my HP Officejet 4500.
HP says to go through Preview, Image Capture, or Print/Scan in System Prefs.
Still doesn't work. Any ideas/similar experiences?

Sure it is, yet it's called HP LaserJet Professional M1210nf MFP Series *
Today, I followed your other advice, and deleted the printer, deleted the /Library/Printer/hp folder, downloaded the entire set of driver, re-installed the printer twice, once with the driver, once with Bonjour.
The Bonjour Printer has the scan option active, but it is doesn't work (refer to above.), it is called M1217nfw
The Apple Driver Printer doesn't show the scan option at all, it is called M1217nf (as on the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP list.) This model number doesn't exist, as far as I can tell.
Still, everything works perfectly in Snow Leopard, for a MF printer that has been manufactured years after Snow Leopard was released.
Why going up in software version means going backwards in compatiblity for brand new product is really the question that puzzles me here.

In PSE 13, when I open a folder, jpeg files have a preview image, but PSD, DNG and CR2 files don't. Also, no thumbnail below the file list.

Working in PSE 13, when I open a folder, jpeg files have a preview image, but psd files just have white sheet of paper as preview. I have to open the file to be able to see it. Also, there is no thumbnail of the file below the file list.Surely, there's a setting that needs to be changed. I did not have this problem with Elements 12. This is a real bother because I have to use Lightroom to see all the file types. It seems as if Elements is using the standard Windows file loader that can't show previews of file types it doesn't know including .PSD, DNG and CR2. Is that a bug or did I do something wrong? Thanks for any help.

I am using Windows 7 64 bits. Working in the editor, I never use the organizer. The screen above is not the same at all that I got in Elements 12, it was completely different and showed me a thumbnail below the listing when I single clicked on one of the files. In Elements 12, I also could see a thumbnail of all the file types, not only the jpegs. It is as if the loader is the regular Windows used anywhere, not the right one for Elements. I hope someone understands my problem.. Thanks.

Preview image does not match content image

I have been using Bridge CS3 on MAC OS X 10.4 for about 2 years and have happily used it as part of my image processing work flow for thousands of images. A Canon 1DS is my main camera. Some time ago I have started using a Canon G9 in addition to the 1DS. So far so good.
Recently and for no reason I can see, Bridge has started displaying an entirely different image in the preview panel than the image selected in the content panel. This only seems to happen when selecting RAW G9 images in the content panel; the image shown in the preview panel will be a processed PSD file originally taken on the 1DS, or a 1DS RAW image (of an entirely different subject and processed months earlier). Needless to say, the file name format of RAW G9 images and processed / RAW 1DS images is entirely different. What ever Bridge is using to marry content image selected with preview image displayed, its getting it wrong. I should add that that this doesn't always happen all of the time - but it does happen about 25% of the time.
When I open in ACR I get the correct image. Also Bridge meta data refers to the correct image. It is just preview that is incorrect.
I have compacted and refreshed the cache. This resolves the issue the first time I go back in and select images from the content panel, but if I reselect, I'm back where I started.
Has anyone ever experienced this?
(in preferences against "When Creating Thumbnails Generate:" I have "Convert To High Quality When Previewed". Also I have both "Use Software Rendering" and "Use High-quality Previews" checked. I'm using Bridge CS3 2.1.1.9)
Many thanks, Tom

I had this with my Canon30D files as well. Spurious previews. I met with Adobe in person and went over this. I then moved to Bridge 3.x and went over why I needed high quality images and the person I was working with took many copies of my images to work on the high quality previews.
I found when I went to one of the 3.x versions of Bridge, this was corrected and I got to use High Quality without the spurious previews.
I did not have to give up my High Quality. At least not in my case.
I will note that I was on the prerelease member site and so did get Bridge 3.x versions that may not have made it to the public, hard to know as I have since moved on to CS4.
I remember a time when I could not use the global purge command and had to throw away all cache folders but this is no longer the case.
I think Adobe did all they could to fix this issue and still feel that it was incredible that they met with me several times and did conference calls with 6-7 engineers in the room with me and how they really seemed to want to know what was up.
So I, for one, cannot say there will remain a black eye. Adobe was very supportive with me.
b One thing though, I could not use "software render" ever with any success.

Bridge CC / How to use all cores to generate preview images?

Hi!
Is there anyway to tell Brdige, that it should use all my cores to generate the preview images?
Actually it uses only 25% of my CPU performance. I've a Intel Core i7-2600 CPU @ 3,4 GHZ, with four cores and enabled hyperthreading, also eight virtual CPUs.
At least it could be FOUR times faster, if it would use all available cores, but so I get one preview per second (12 MP RAWs). So I've to wait in case of 1.000 RAWs round about 15 minutes. If would use all CPUs, which are available, it could increase speed up to 4 minutes. More then 10 minutes saved.
As there any chance, or does Adobe have no interest, like it has no interest to speed up LightRoom?
If there is any chance, I would be very pleased.
Thanks

It's really frustrating:
While Adobe Camera RAW is able to process different images in parallel and speeding up the process.
Other teams of Adobe are still telling me, that it's impossible to process several images in parallel and speeding up the Bridge thumbnail and preview generating process:

Why can't I see a preview image when opening files in InDesign?

I have "Always save preview images with documents" checked in File Handling, also with Save As. But I can only see the CS3 ID icon in my folders on the desktop, and when opening a file in InDesign. I'm running 10.4.11. Shouldn't I be able to see a preview image of the first page of an InDesign file?
Thanks!

i think those preview images means that indesign saves a lowres image of every placed image inside indd. So you can open your indd in some other computer and see all placed images even if you don´t have all the original linked hires images transferred with indd.
If you want to see your documents first page as document icon, use Bridge to browse your files. It recognizes a content of indd files and show first page as icon. .

Can I extract an InDesign preview image?

Somehow one of my Tiff images that I use in InDesign has been corrupted. PS won't open it (it tells me that it is not a Tiff file), so the only record I have of the image is the preview that InDesign grabbed when I first imported the image. InDesign shows me the image when I go to that page, but when I try to export or print, InDesign tells me it can't find the file.
This image is not a very important one. It is a simple drawing I made in PS with a few fills and I'm quite happy with the quality that I see in InDesign. So I thought I'd try to export it to PDF and grab the image from within the PDF. Wouldn't export. OK, how about embedding the file and exporting? No go. Print? No.
That is my problem. Instead of me spending a few hours to redraw the image, given that I'm happy with what I see on screen, can I get the image out of InDesign?

Sandee, maybe I didn't do what you suggested. Let me use colours to explain what I did. I clicked on the white pointer, clicked on the image and it was surrounded by a brown rectangle, then I copied (or cut) and nothing got copied to the clipboard. I tried images that are OK, and still nothing happened. I am using CS, maybe that's why I can't copy a preview image.
Do you mean that when you copy an image with the direct selection tool, that you are copying InDesign's stored preview to the clipboard?
I also tried these:
1. Copying the image and pasting it back into InDesign CS. That worked, but I couldn't copy the second image to the clipboard.
2. Cut the image and repasted into InDesign. Again, I wasn't able to copy or cut to the clipboard.
Maybe trying to paste into Photoshop CS is where the problem lies. I'm going to download a trial version of CS3 to see if that works.

Hi,
I did a test with your code in my environment and it works fine.
For a better troubleshooting, I suggest you debug your code step by step. You may need to check if file.ListItemAllFields.ID is valid.
If you want to get video Thumnail image, there is a column named Preview Image URL, the internal name of the field is AlternateThumbnailUrl.
You can get the field value using Sever Object Model like below.
String url = item[“AlternateThumbnailUrl”].ToString();
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

In iphoto, when I click on Print, the preview image it shows me is an enlarged section of my photo. I cropped the photo and checked with no restraints. Once the photo goes to Print, I can't fix it back to the way it is in iphoto.

Change Flashdrive Preview Image

There a way to change the con of the flashdrive as it appears on the desktop? The icon is a little boring and i want to change it to a custom image of mine. Help?

Figured it out for anyone who wants to know. Open the image you want in Preview and use the select to tool to select the WHOLE image. Hit Apple+C to copy and switch over to your folder, or whatever else. Hit Apple+I to "Get Info." In the top left corner there should be a small image. The same image as the big "Preview Image" below it. Select the small picture in the top-left corner. It should have a blue outline. Hit Apple+V to paste. Your preview image should have changed. If not reply to this and I'll try to let you know why it is not working.
