Previews corrupted in LR Windows

Im running LR in Windows XP SP3. Im using it in a Mac via Boot Camp. That means a separate partition, the Mac OS is not running at the same time. I use this for image capture. I use Canon Utilities for Auto Import and the process is fast and solid.
I was using and older generation MacBook to do this with no problems. I recently switched to a new MacBook and when I shoot an image with a light or blown out background the thumbnail preview gets very odd, sometimes solarized, sometimes black, sometimes it only effects the the preview and sometimes the large preview image as well. Ive tried adjusting the settings for the video card (NVIDIA) and the import quality and size, no luck. I then switched to a new MacBookPro, same problem. Im
using Lightroom 2.2. When I export and open the database in a MacOS and build a 1:1 preview this problem goes away. (I use Windows for capture because the USB throughput is much faster and more robust then the mac side.
I did check the NVIDIA settings for the Multiple Display settings but it does not seem to be active in a laptop. Here are some posted samples: http://www.kodakgallery.com/niedorf

Thank you for replying. That is right, I am quite suspicious of memory - my laptop is full to the brim and I suspect that this may affect available memory and cause some problems in LR. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about computers to be certain.
The card reader - quite simple: the card reader is the same, whether I save the files to the internal or external drives. I put the SD card in it, then copy the files and paste them where I want them. When done, I then open the LR and synchronize the folder. When I copy and paste files to the internal drive, the images look fine in LR; when I copy and paste them into the external drive, 80% of them come up visually corrupted in LR. Since the same card reader is used in both cases, and the files are OK when saved internally, I am assuming it is not the card reader.
So, basically, when I became aware of the problem, I tried copying and saving the same file both internally and externally from the card reader, in order to verify what was going on. That is how the same file (more than one, actually) ended up on three different drives.
Right now, my instinct is to copy everything to an external drive and clear some space on the internal one. I am very apprehensive though - what if something is causing file corruption on the external drives - in that case I will be corrupting everything when I migrate the files. Hence my previous question - are the files actually corrupted, or do they simply appear corrupted in LR because of memory issues? As I said, I don't know enough about this to be certain and do not know what to do.

How to print preview in a popup window?

There are couple of websites that I use frequently and they open links up into popup windows that I would like to print using print preview so I don't waste paper. Is there a way to do print preview from a popup window or can I open popup windows in a new tab?
Please Help,
jpmtnman

Thanck you for your answer.
Unfortunatly, my plugin aim to help debug javascript code. So, it's not my code which directly open popup, it's the code I'm watching. I cannot give argument to window.open.
Correct me if I did not understand something, but your second option consist in modifying the settings of the user browser. How could I do that from a plugin ?
Also, I realized that when I open a popup without the plugin tester(cfx run), i.e. in opening firefox the usual way, popup windows have the menubar with plugin buttons. O.o
Is anyone know why this difference ?

Preview - displays a blank window instead of the jpg???

Installed SL yesterday, and now Preview displays a blank window instead of the jpg??? The jpg opens in iPhoto.
Anyone one else? Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi Ron,
Try deleting this file.
com.apple.Preview.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences.
Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, emtpy the Trash and restart your Mac.
If that doesn't help, right or control click that image, then click Get Info.
In the Get Info window click Open with. You may have to click the discovery triangle.
Click the pop menu and select the application you want to open that image with... you may have to navigate to your Applications folder to make a selection.

Acrobat Pro X PDF previewing not working in Windows 7 64-bit

Greetings, all,
The organization I work for recently purchased a volume license for Acrobat Pro X. We uninstalled Adobe Reader from all of our machines and installed Acrobat Pro X on them. After the move, the PDF preview handler stopped working. People commonly link to the URL below, but it has not worked for us. It appears it only works for the PDF preview handler packaged with Adobe Reader, not the one packaged with Acrobat Pro.

Users are unable to preview PDFs in Windows Explorer and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. When attempting to preview in Windows Explorer, the following appears:
This file can't be previewed.
What can we do to get the preview handler working in Windows Explorer (Windows 7 64-bit) and Office Outlook 2007?
Thanks in advance!

OK. Then do you mean the thumbnails in Windows Explorer? I don't have a solution for that, but there have been several posts about the issue.
Well, thumbnails in Explorer don't work either, but we're not concerned about it. The preview pane is what we're worried about. There is a button in the top-right that turns the pane on. Previewing in Outlook does not work either.

Can anyone recommend a solution?

If I set the default program for viewing PDF as Acrobat XI Pro the a PDF file will open with Acrobat XI Pro, but in Outlook I will get a white screen and the information bubble "This file cannot be previewed because there is no previewer installed for it" and in Windows Explorer I get a white screen in the preview pane.

Previewing pdf files in Windows 8

I have a new Samsung Ulimate laptop with Windows 8- Nice machine but not fit for purpose as I cannot preview pdf files in Windows Explorer- every file just has the pdf icon with no preview and only the filename to differentiate them. Is this a known problem. Is there a reliable fix?

Not for 64 bit systems, it doesn't seem it was ever expected to work.

Preview won't close windows

I have mac book pro 10.7.4 . I opened a few PDF files. Now preview wont close the windows. I tried:
     1- turning off restore window feature on system preferences
     2- using command + option + Q
     3- deleting com.apple.preview file
Nothing seems to work. Please help

I was having the same problem, with a large file that was causing my Preview to open it everytime and slow it down, and it wouldn't close the **** file/window. The fact is that it was opening the file even if it was deleted. But it was opening a temporary file somewhere, somehow.
I don't know if that's available in previous version os macOS, but I'm using Lion. Here's what I did:
1. Right-click on the icon by the side of the title of the window/document you wish to close
2. You can see now the path of that file - click on the folder right beneath the file name
3. That will take you the where the file is - delete the file.
4. Go back to preview and close the window.
To me this worked instantly. It wasn't closing before and now it did because the file really didn't exist anymore.
Cheers

Canon s750 cannot preview photoshop LE in windows xp

canon s750 cannot preview photoshop LE in windows xp.
above works in ?every? other program on my system.
Also works in win98 se.
When I send to printer the image is sent immediately to the printer, skipping any preview.
Any one know of a cure?
Thanks, Greg

Maybe your anti-virus software removed it?
Have you tried a system restore to a date before this happened?
Thanks for your email!
I tried to do a system restore since I set a restore point about 3 months ago. That said, when I went into System Restore, the only restore point was today's date. I couldn't go back to any earlier time and find any other System Restore points - so much for the reliability of System Restore.
I've never thought of Windows as anything other then one click away from oblivion.

Keep Preview playing when switching windows?

Is there any possible way to keep Preview playing the file when switching windows? For example, pressing the space bar on .mp3 file begins playing it in Preview, however when switching windows, the preview pauses until you go back to the finder window. This is annoying when browsing .mp3's to play while doing other things. Any ideas?

I think you mean QuickLook, not Preview. And no, QuickLook is not intended to work that way--it is a way to do just what its name says: provide a quick looksee at the files in an open Finder window.
As for ideas: why not just open them in iTunes?
If you don't want to add them to iTunes, you can put the folder with the mp3s into Column View, make sure the box for "show preview column" is checked in View Options, then click directly on the icon for the file in the preview column (as your mouse moves over the icon, you will see the stylish play button appear on top of the icon). It will continue to play no matter what else you are doing.

Problem with preview PDF files on Windows 7 32bit

Hello,
in my office I have a problem with preview PDF files on my computers. The files are allright, but if I select a file and click on preview mode after ~ 10sec operation system write something "Preview this file is corrupt for PDF Preview Handler wrong". On other 64bit computers with same programs the preview is work. I try uninstall all Adobe soft (Reader, Flash), clean all Adobe data from folders in root and in register, but it is not solve this problem. On Microsoft forums wrote me, that the problem is probably with AR plugin.
So, can someone help me?

Thank you for help.

I think I figured it out after reading other forums. Thanks!

Preview corrupts PDF documents when saving

There appears to be a serious bug in Preview and/or OS X's PDF creation libraries, that causes PDFs to be "invisibly" corrupted.
My situation is: I have a number of PDFs that have been created using Windows-based OCR software. They are standard PDF/A documents, and when I open them in Preview they display fine. More importantly, I can "copy" the text from the document to the clipboard and it works as you would expect.
However, if the PDF document it edited in any way - page order changed, a page from another document moved into the document etc - and then saved, the resulting PDF is corrupt. Although the text appears on the screen normally, any text copied to the clipboard is garbled: for example, the displayed text:
AUTUMN SPECIAL!
appears in one of my documents. However, highlighting it and copying it results in
*)﴿*%&(﴾'"!# $
in the clipboard.
I now have hundreds of documents that are effectively useless, as I cannot accurately copy the document text. I know others have had the same issue (see the posts in this Superuser.com thread for examples). The issue would appear to go as far back as Lion and possibly before then.
Is this a "known issue"? And has anyone come up with work-arounds - other than re-OCRing the files (usually by exporting as TIFFs, reOCRing etc)?

This issue is still happening on Mavericks and it also happens with Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you highlight some lines on a PDF text and then save it, the OCR becomes unreadable. If you try to redo the OCR on Acrobat Pro, this is impossible because the pages 'contain renderable text'. The only solution I can fathom is not to use annotation on any PDFs. The strange thing is that I cannot find any solutions to this, or any bugs submitted on Acrobat's forums, where they should also be, because this is not just a problem with Apple.

Aperture 2 Image Preview Corruption?

I just installed Aperture 2 (upgrade) this weekend, and am noticing that eventually, after several minutes of use, image previews (main window, not thumbnails) will start becoming corrupted. The corruption looks like streaks or bands of altered color data. Once it begins, it will persist for most new images that are clicked on. If I quit Aperture, I've noticed the behavior continue with other images (i.e. my desktop background). A couple times, this has also been followed by a system crash.
I'm running on a Dual 2.0 GHz G5, 3.5 GB, OS 10.5.2. Vast majority of images are RAW from a Canon 20D. Prior to updating Aperture, my system was fairly stable - the only crashes I would typically see were sleep-related.
Anyone else see similar behavior? I should note that when I've relaunched Aperture, the image previews are no longer corrupted, so I don't think anything is wrong with my photos themselves...
Thanks for any insight!
-Mark

Well, I think I finally found the answer to my problem... bad RAM. My system has been rather flaky recently - apps crashing randomly, so I started to think there were other issues going on. After reinstalling the OS had no effect, I finally figured I'd test the RAM. Sure enough, one of my pairs of DIMMs was bad (go figure it had to be the big 2GB upgrade I added). After I took them out, my Aperture imports have worked normally. It hasn't been very long, so I can't comment on whether that solved the system stability problems, too, but it's a good bet it has...

Menu/Toolbar Display Corruption Upon Resizing Window

We're experiencing an issue with one of our workstations where when the Adobe Reader X (10.1.3) window is resized, the Menu/Toolbar displays become corrupt and garbled on the screen (see the attached picture). The Toolbar appears on the top, the frame around the application disappears, and the menubar has to be hovered across for items to appear.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader, updated the video card drivers, and ensured all Adobe/Microsoft updates have been applied to this workstation.
Dell Precision T3500
Intel Xeon W3530 (2.80 GHz)
6.00GB of Memory
NVIDIA Quadro FX 580
Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Was curious to how you were able to change the display resolution - I am unable to even see anything on my desktop... I have connected my power book to another monitor but have the same result.

Error when running measurement explorer; corrupt installation on Windows XP

When I launch measurement explorer in Windows XP, I get an error stating: Unable to open connection to server. Config.mxs file or installation corrupt. Please delete config.mxs file in the same directory as NIMax.exe,please delete file, reinstall and then check ni.com if problem not fixed.
I have tried deleting the config.mxs file and have reinstalled NIDAQ 6.9.3. Whenever I try to install NIDAQ 6.9.3, I get an error message 1605 relating to the installation of NI-Pal 15.6f0. I continued the installation when prompted. Could this be corrupting measurement explorer?

I figured out how to get MAX to install properly under WinXP. My clue came when I had to change permissions in the registry before I could delete the registry settings when reinstalling. MAX must have to write something to the registry when it first starts up, and I noticed the whole registry tree had no permissions even after the re-install. After going to the national instruments top level registry entry, I changed the permissions to full control for administrator. Then click on Advanced and click replace permission entries for all child objects. After this, I could start up MAX with no problems. I would suggest backing up your system before you try this. I don't know if this is something NI can fix with the install or if this is a WinXP problem to prevent
having to do all this in the future.

Download appears corrupt - installing to Windows XP and Windows 7 Pro 64bit

I have tried to install Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign onto 1 Windows XP computer and 2 Windows 7 computers and in every instance I have received the message "download appears corrupt. U43M1D207 error. I have combed the FAQ's and a lot of other mostly MAC users are receiving the same errors.
I have downloaded the Creative Suite cleaner and have used it multiple times on all the computers with the same failure over and over again.
I have also gone to Adobe Downloads and ran the patched Adobe Application Manager and still no luck.
In one FAQ a tech tells people to go to the trial versions and download those and then sign in and the subscription will appear. On 3 of the computers this worked, but on the third computer I started today, the subscription box never showed up even though I logged on with the employee's cloud subscription ID. I downloaded three of the applications only to have to go back and un-install the applications because it asked to either run in trial or supply a serial number.
On my fourth computer running Windows XP I downloaded Photoshop extended just fine and Illustrator, but there's no selection for InDesign, so I can't download it.
Last night I sat on a chat session for 30 minutes only to find out that there were no tech's on duty only customer support and she said that I would need to call in on Mon-Fri. I can't wait until Mon-Fri as I need to do this off hours.
I'm at the end of my rope with aggravation and I have 7 more computers to go and they are scattered around the USA.
If anyone has any idea what may fix my dilemma I would surely appreciate it! Thank you in advance.
Update: After getting away from the problem for awhile, I decided to clear the cache on both problem computers, run CCleaner and reboot. I then went back to the Trial Download page and everything worked perfectly. I could see InDesign on the Windows XP computer and on the Windows 7 computer the subscription box appeared. I had my answer and everything appears to work properly now.
I still don't understand why downloading from the Cloud site doesn't work especially since many of the problems I have been reading about in other threads were started back in May, 2012.
Also I don't understand why when so many techs like myself have to work after hours and on weekends there are no Adobe techs on the chat line. My company spent a lot of money on the new subscription and will continue to do so in the future and all I can find is work arounds instead of the Cloud download site actually being repaired.

It's been many, many years since I don't do dual boot anymore. Don't find the reason to do it, either. Different kinds of virtualization should be enough. Anyway...
