Preview in Finder not loading. All my images have the Preview icon instead!

Hi,
anybody experiencing the same problem as me?
All of a sudden my preview in finder doesn't work and all my picture preview icons became the "Preview" icon itself!
Here is how it looks like.. : http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/3414/picture37.png
Does anybody know how to get it back to normal because it is such a hassle to click on every single photo to find the picture that I want!
Thanks!

Sounds like your LaunchServices database has gotten corrupted. Launch the Terminal app in /Applications/Utilities/, copy & paste this one-line command into it, hit the return key, and restart.
*/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchS ervices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user*
That should fix the problem.

  • Can I revert back to prior mozilla. 6.0 does not load all images

    many websites do not load all pictures and images since I updated to 6.0. Can I undo update?

    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • Itunes will not load all photos

    Suddenly, my Ipad 3 will not load all of the photos that are in a folder onto the iPad into an album.  I have a folder of 58 images and iTunes recognizes that.  When I sync to add the images, itunes loads only 53 of them.  I have repeatedly attempted to sync and it keeps loading the 53 images.  I took the 5 images from the folder and put them in a new folder and Itunes will not load them.  These images are JPEG's and are not any larger of a file than the ones that did load.  I have even restored my Ipad and it still only will load the 53 images.
    I had this same problem the other day where out of 96 images, it would only load 76.  I have plenty of HD space available.  I am at my wits end.  All software is up to date now and still same issues so not sure what the problem is.  I've deleted the iPod Cache folders, have a fresh install of ITunes and still no luck.  HELP!

    You removed the cache from iPhoto - correct?

  • Finder not loading since upgrading to Yosemite

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a 2012 Macbook Pro 15" model.
    Intel Core i7 processor and 8GB RAM. I upgraded to OS X Yosemite yesterday from 10.8 and since then, I've been experiencing longer boot times, Finder not loading my local files and folders, Launchpad stuck in the "Loading Applications..." state, Spotlight search either not working or loading terribly slow. Even when I save out files from applications like Photoshop to the desktop or another folder, the update file or new file doesn't appear in the folder at all. It's there, because Photoshop's Finder view shows it, and using an Upload form can find it but other than that it's not there.
    Finder is stuck in the spinning wheel state and doesn't load my folders and files on my local machine. I'm connected to a Network drive here at our office and I can view the files on that fine. I've tried relaunching & restarting but nothings work. Considering doing a clean install of Mavericks now as I'm at my wits end.
    Any help at all would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Brinard

    brightdust and FlyGirl_1350 are exactly right. You need version 9.6 of iPhoto and it's about 1.14GB in size to download - so get ready to wait a while unless you have a pretty fast internet connection.

  • My iphoto will not load, all it does when i open it is just show a blank iphoto and won't load any of my photos that were already in there.

    My iphoto will not load, all it does when i open it is just show a blank iphoto and won't load any of my photos that were already in there. Any way to fix it ?

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT4914 I turned on iTunes Match, and subscribed; but it did not load all of my library. How can this be corrected so that I can recover all of my library?

    I turned on iTunes Match, and subscribed; but it did not load all of my library. How can this be corrected?

    iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match
    After looking through the above link, and still doesn't help then try this below:
    > iTunes Content: Downloading past purchases from App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    > Non-iTunes Content: Transfer them from a different iDevice or from USB flash drive and/or external hard drive.
    I don't use iTunes Match so I don't really know.

  • Finder not displaying all files in remote directory

    Sorry, this is a repost as I have gotten no response from my original request here: Finder not displaying all files in remote directory
    I've exported pictures from iPhoto on my iMac to a shared directory on my mac mini. When I access that directory from my iMac, I can see some but not all of the pictures. I know the pictures exported properly because I can see them all from the mac mini. I can open up a terminal window on my iMac and see all of the files; I can also open those files from the terminal.
    I'm running OSX 10.9.4 on both computers, with the mac mini also running OSX Server. I've placed a screen grab below from my iMac of what Finder sees vs what I can see from the terminal.
    Why isn't Finder displaying all of my files?

    thanks for responding
    Adding a new file to the shared folder results in me being able to see the new file from my clients regardless of where it was added from, however the "hidden" files do not suddenly pop up.
    I tried a few more experiments that had interesting results, but still didn't lead me to an answer.
    First I tried copying the files from the remote directory to a local directory; I did this in 2 different ways and had different results. Method A) I copied files from the mounted share to a local dir: "cp /Volumes/MyShare/dir/*.JPG .". Method B) I copied the files using secure copy: "scp user@server:/path/to/dir/*.JPG .".
    Method A resulted in Finder not being able to see the files in the local directory, while Method B did. This was interesting and lead me to suspect an issue with the way I am sharing the directory on the server. From Server settings I have both afp and smb checked. I tried enabling only one or the other and reconnecting; but this did not fix the problem.
    Next I tried exporting the photos from iPhoto again. Exporting them locally results in files that Finder can see. Exporting them to my server results the same bad behavior
    Getting desperate, I also tried renaming all of the files from "*.JPG" to "*.jpg" but this didn't help.
    One last experiment, I see the same behavior from both another Mac and a PC on my local network... FTP works fine.
    Any more ideas?

  • Will Not Load All Songs On iPod

    My iPod shuffle will not load all the songs. I have tried to reset and do everything I possably could.
    HELP ME PLEASE!!

    Well I found my own answer, apparently the sync all music and playlists, was changed to selected music and playlists. When reading the Manual on use of On-the-Go, it became apparent what had happened. Still wish the podcasts were in date order instead of reverse date order.

  • TS3297 yesterday I downloaded the wiggles "its a wiggly world". after song 3 all I received was the preview, not the entire song. how do I get the entire songs ?

    all I downloaded was the preview.   How do I fix this?

    Other people have been having similar problems over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting them from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • ITunes Match not loading all music to iPhone 5s

    iTunes is not loading all of my music to my iPhone 5s. It was working fine before, now it doesn't seem to load any new music I put into my iTunes. I have tried to update iTunes Match several times and it still doesn't work. I have authorized my computer already.

    Interestingly I just checked my phone and all my playlists have been loaded up..go figure...

  • Why won't adobe touch for ios not load all my pictures?

    Why won't adobe touch for ios not load all my pictures?

    Hi. As a workaround you can enable "Always use native photo browsers"  in the PS Touch settings. It's listed under "Preferences" -> "Access Local Photos setting". See attached screenshot
    We are working on a fix for the next release.
