Previewing for Explorer on a Mac

I'm using CS3 on a Mac (OS X) but my audience is all on PC's.
Pages I preview in Firefox or Opera, even Explorer 5.0 for Mac look
good, but they are not displaying the same on the newer versions of
Explorer for the PC.
Any suggestions on what I'm missing or could do differently,
are appreciated.
Thanks

On a Mac you can tab through a Excel spread sheet - moves horiontally through the sheet. The Return key moves you vertically.
I believe this is the same on Windows ??

  • No previews for PSD docs in mac finder

    Hi Chris etal in the forum, I have no previews for just PSD docs in the mac finder for a week or so now. I can see other types of doc previews. I run snow leopard on a mac book pro that is about 2 years old. Oddly enough the trouble BEGan for me after running a normal maintainence script in ONYX (I clean the cashe about once a week or so). Could be coincidence. I just installed the little "patch' from adobe but that does not help. I can see the previews in the com/4 view but in com/3, where I usually hang out, there is no preview and pressing the space bar for quick look is the same, with no preview. Can anyone give me advise about what to do? It would be greatly appreciated. aloha, Uhane

    I've been unable to find a Quick Look extension (Finder preview employs QL) which can build a composite from layers in a PSD.
    That's a shame, because the concept can work, though I can't imagine taking on the task of compositing layers just to make a codec or Quick Look extension, but hey - the authors who've done it do sell product.
    Here's a case where the FPV codec works fine:
    It's damned handy when the thumbnails and previews actually work, and frankly this kind of integration really is something Adobe ought to provide.  They removed their codec way back when they had trouble because they apparently didn't have the savvy to get it right, claiming at the time that Windows was giving them trouble.  Either those rules have changed or there are smarter people out there, as the software I have been showing above does seem to work without causing system faults or usability problems.

  • Viewing PC-generated pdfs in Preview for Mac

    I have a pdf that I generated on a PC (Windows 7, using Acrobat 9). The front cover includes an image that was previously pdf'd then inserted as a cover graphic. When viewed using Acrobat Reader, everything looks fine both on a PC and a Mac. However, when viewed on a Mac using Preview for Mac, there are lines through the cover graphic.
    Has anyone else come across problems viewing PC-generated pdfs in Preview for Mac?

    I always find that Preview can garble certain graphic elements or even slightly alter the over-all color of the PDF. However, I also find it is a lot quicker to deal with PDFs, especially when it comes to printing. Sometimes I get a PDF that I send to print on our Canon copier and I end up canceling the print job after 10-15 minutes because it's still processing. I open that same PDF in Preview and it prints in less than a minute. The same can be said of InDesign so on certain jobs I end up exporting as a PDF and printing from Preview. This might say a lot about Adobe's Printing Engine... (sorry, off-topic)

  • Pdf duplication in Preview for Mac behaving differently

    When duplicating a PDF in Preview for Mac, a new image window would open that I could click on to select, then rename and save elsewhere. Just recently, seems like in the last few days, Preview now behaves differently. Now when I select duplicate, a duplicate document is created in the same window but shows as a thumbnail in the sidebar. This is confusing as it appears that Preview is trying to create a duplicate of the document at the end of the original. I don't appear to have received any updates from Apple that would account for this sudden change in behaviour (shows Preview last modified 18th November). I don't appear to be able to change this in Preview's Preferences. Can I revert Preview to the previous behaviour? (I'm using latest version of Preview in Yosemite on a 24" iMac).

    If you have an Intel Mac there is a program that you install
    (based on
    WINE) that allows you to just download and and install IE6
    and run from
    a Mac. IF your using a PowerPC unit your out of luck.
    If you send me your email address though I have a working
    .DMG file of
    IE 5.2.3 the last version for Mac. works great on OSX.3.9.
    Somewhat on
    OSX.4.11 and have no earthly idea whether it will even fire
    up on
    leopard (X.5)

  • Aperture reprocesses previews for all videos every time I open it

    Hello,
    I use Aperture to organise all my videos shot on Canon 7d and an old HD Cam (705 vids, 381GB). Whereas my stills are stored in the aperture library, the videos are imported into eparate folders named after each project inside one master video folder.
    I do this because it is an easy way to work with all of them in FCP (X), importing them without moving them, keywords from the folders coming across (and also because  FCP used to incorrectly display the meta data- date and time imported shown as the file's creation details, when accessed via the aperture library menu from FCP, this bug has probably since been corrected)..
    After restoring from a time machine back up recently, Aperture now reprocesses previews for all 705 movies every single time I open it, reboot or not. It doesn't hang on any particular file or crash but (as it's a mid 2010 MBP) simply slows Aperture down below useable for a few mins until they are done.
    Post import processing set to camera previews, new projects always create previews ticked.
    What am I doing wrong please? Should I attempt to fix the database?
    Best
    Ben

    As a work-around -  hold down the shift-key, when launching Aperture. That will defer the generation of Previews, so you can start working immediately.
    What is your Aperture version and MacOS X version?
    After restoring from a time machine back up recently, Aperture now reprocesses previews for all 705 movies every single time I open it, reboot or not.
    Was Aperture the only thing you restored from a Time Machine backup? Or did you restore more of your system? If you reinstalled or upgraded the system, there may be now video codecs missing. In that case check, if reinstalling additional video codec (Perian, Flip-4-Mac, or similar) may help.
    If the reinstalled aperrture library has been created on a different mac, there may be permission problems after restoring from Time Machine. Check the permissions and ownership on your video folders.
    Are you touching the videos in any way, when using them in Final cut? Using stabilize or something? If the " last modiied " date is changed by Final Cut, this might prompt Aperture to recreate the preview.

  • What is Preview for iCloud used for?

    What is Preview for iCloud used for? Is this to save any document that can be opened in Preview to iCloud?
    Thanks.

    Preview is a Mac application capable of viewing a whole range of file types. It can save those files to iCloud which can then be accessed on another Mac setup with the same iCloud account.
    Currently, files saved to iCloud from Preview cannot be accessed on iOS devices, as there is no equivalent iOS Preview app.

  • Thumbnail Preview for RAW Files Not Appearing in Bridge

    Hello,
    I'm running Adobe Bridge 5.1 on a Mac OS 10.9.2 (recently upgraded to Maverick) and I can no longer see thumbnail previews for my RAW files (which include .NEF, .CR2 and .RAF) though as of a few days ago this wasn't a problem. Not sure if it's related to the Maverick upgrade... but FYI, I do see thumbnail previews for .TIFF and .JPEG files.
    I've already purged my cache generally and have also as a test chosen a local file to purge - that didn't work.
    I've restarted Bridge at least 2x by pressing and holding the Option key.
    I've also checked for Bridge updates - everything is up to date.
    My Cache Options (within Preferences) are set to "Keep 100% Previews in Cache" and "Automatically Export Cache to Folders When Possible" - both checked.
    Also downloaded the Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter 8.3, installed it but that didn't work.
    I can't seem to find my Bridge cache folder or at least what's in the Library's "Caches" folder doesn't include anything for Bridge - see screenshot below.
    Please help! Thank you in advance.

    To me it seems related to your Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) converter. Clue inhere is you only miss the Raw files and have no problems in seeing other formats like jpeg and tiff.
    The screenshot you delivered is from the wrong library, however, this same library (the one on system level) also is the location where you should be able to view the correct version of your ACR plugin. The path: library (same as per your screenshot)/Application support/ Adobe/ Plug ins/ CS6/ File Formats. inhere should be only one version of Camera Raw (called: "Camera Raw.plugin") and this should show version 8.3 (141).
    I'm not sure about your bridge version number, Bridge 5 comes with PSCS6 but my most recent version of Bridge is 5.0.2.4.
    Anyway, if you have only one ACR (8.3) installed in the above mentioned path then you might want to try to delete the Bridge plist file and Bridge cache file manually.
    For this you have to Quit Bridge and find the user library (by default hidden, use menu Go in Finder and press option key to reveal).
    Inhere find the plist file (user(your user name) / library / Preferences  and inhere find and manually delete the file called: "com.adobe.bridge5.plist"
    The in same user library find Bridge Cache. User/Library/Caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6. Inhere are 2 files, the adobe Bridge plug in cache and the folder called Cache. delete (or move outside libray) both items.
    The restart Bridge (If needed also again hold option key to reset preferences) and this will create fresh files for the previous deleted items, leaving you with an almost out of the box factory set version of Bridge.

    Internet Explorer is not available for Mac.
    But you can make Safari pretend to be Internet Explorer in some cases.
        Safari > Preference > Advanced
        Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".

  • How do I download internet explorer to my mac

    How do I download internet explorer to my mac pro?

    If by chance this is a site that is largely built around ActiveX controls (I think there are still web tools for registerd real estate agents that are like that - the MLS site, for agents not consumers, was like that and was posted about here often in the past), then your only real option is to install windows and use IE.
    IE for Mac was dropped by Microsoft back in 2003.

  • How do I download Internet Explorer to my MAC desk top.

    How do I download Internet Explorer to my MAC desk top.  I need this access from home because it is what my work uses and when I try to log on to the work websites I am blocked.  I was told it was because I cannot use Safari.  It has to be Internet Explorer.

    Microsoft has not written IE for Mac for many years.
    Try using the Chrome Browser instead.
    Besides Chrome, there might be a Safari workaround...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Then from the Safari menu click Develop > User Agent then try IE 10, 9, etc.

  • When I go to Preview to view a photo it shows up for less than a second then disappears and just leaves a gray box where the photo should be. iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014). I need Preview for work.

    After the OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 update When I go to use Preview to view a photo it shows up for less than a second then disappears and just leaves a gray box where the photo should be. iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014). I need Preview for work.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a general summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    These are not specific instructions; just an overview. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. Load this linked web page (on the website "Pastebin.") The title of the page is "Diagnostic Test." Below the title is a text box headed by three small icons. The one on the right represents a clipboard. Click that icon to select the text, then copy it to the Clipboard on your computer by pressing the key combination command-C.
    If the text doesn't highlight when you click the icon, select it by triple-clicking anywhere inside the box. Don't select the whole page, just the text in the box.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing command-V, then press return. The text you pasted should vanish immediately.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

  • PREVIEWS for unrecognized FILE TYPES?

    i have some .rvb files that can be opened in TEXTWRANGLER and which come from a windows based 3D software program. These open as TEXT and I am finding that I /sometimes/ see the TEXT previews for these files and I sometimes don't see the previews for these files. When I don't see the previews I just see a blank page without the text.
    this does not /appear/ to be related to whether the file has been opened recently and it appears to change visibility when I /move/ the files to a new folder (in this case the previews went away).
    i also notice that the icon is sometimes correct and sometimes just blank.
    can anyone help me troubleshoot this a little so i understand how to keep the previews as this is invaluable for my editing workflow.
    thanks.

    <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/14119.html>
    If so, QL deals with files based on type code, file name extension, or UTI. If your .rvb files come from Win, then they have neither the former, nor the latter, and the name extension is not declared by any app, so QL doesn't know what to do with them. Here's what you can try:
    (1) Set the default app to open these files to TextWrangler in the usual way. This might or might not work, I'm not sure.
    (2) Use RCDefaultApp to associate .rvb files with TW. Again, this might or might not work, I'm not sure.
    (3) Use the following AppleScript to create a droplet (save it in AppleScript Editor as an app).
    --script begins
    (* We use "name contains" instead of "name extension is" because the latter doesn't seem to work reliably. *)
    on open theFiles
              tell application "Finder"
                        repeat with i in theFiles
                                  if name of i contains ".rvb" then
                                            set file type of i to "TEXT"
                                  end if
                        end repeat
              end tell
    end open
    --script ends
    The type code "TEXT" will be assigned to any Finder item dropped on it which contains the string ".rvb" in its name. This should work.
    (4) Edit TextWrangler's UTI type declaration to add .rvb. The issue is described here
    <http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20071028184428583>
    (Scroll and look at the hint about Coda—it applies to your problem, mutatis mutandis.)
    (5) Use extended attributes, as described in here
    <http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20100112100027790>
    Methods (1) and (2) may or may not work, I'm not sure. But it's easy to try them out.
    Methods (3), (4), and (5) will definitely work. But you may find (4) and (5) a little too complicated.
