Previews not loading

I have pictures on an external hard drive that are imported into my catalogue. One folder ( out of many) when called up do not show previews when in Libary. If I choose develop, the pictures appears and so does the preview. When I try to backup , I get an error message that my preview cache is having a problem. All other folders have good previews.

WW's solution likely won't work. The Camera Raw Cache only affects what happens in the Develop Module.
Have you tried selecting all images in that folder (grid mode, Ctrl-A) and choosing the "Library->Previews->Render Standard-Sized Previews" menu item? I'd try that first.
If that doesn't work, you'll need to delete your previews.
In the same directory as your Lightroom catalogue, there is a folder whose name ends in ".lrdat". Rename this folder, go into Lightroom and select the "Library->Previews->Render Standard-Sized Previews" menu item. Tell it to render them for all photos. If you have a large library, this may take quite a while, but you should have your previews back at the end.

Previews not loading in grid view (stacks) 10.6.3

Hi, I am having a rather odd bug with stacks: everything works just dandy (previews load) unless I look at a certain folder. If I navigate to the folder (in stack view) it will load maybe 80% of the item previews and then just stop (it loads different ones each time). After I have done this, no preview for anything will load other than folder icons (in stacks, that is), unless I log-out log-in or restart. I have tested this many times, and it is consistent. Cover flow still works, even after stack previews have stopped appearing. An annoyance really, but I still would like to fix it if possible, so thanks in advance for any ideas.

That's the point to where I was getting - without icon previews, the default icon for .m4v files should be the following:
(This was just taken from my wife's MacBook Pro, still on iTunes 10.6.2 but running Snow Leopard 10.6.8)
Under Lion (10.7.4) and iTunes 10.6.3, the default icon (no previews) is empty white, which I do not believe should be - I had the above generic icon for .m4v files in Lion under 10.6.2.
Yet iTunes-associated audio files are fine: (from my iMac)
Strange, isn't it??

Photoshop files locking up Finder (preview not loading) and empty photoshop files... 18mb!

Hi all,
We've been having some problems with all of our Photoshop files recently. It seems to be a problem that's been duplicated throughout during the design progression.
When using finder to navigate through our design folders, it often locks up for 5 - 10 seconds per file while finder tries to load the preview thumbnails (and fails, showing just the psd icon). I checked compatibility was checked on save as. I also checked the colour profile was being embedded. On some files it wasn't so I checked this, but still having the same slowdown.
As a test I then deleted all the layers in the doc, saved it again - and even though the file only had one blank layer - it was 18mb in size!
I then made a new document of the same resolution, saved it - and boom. 120kb or so and preview works fine.
I then opened one of the problem PSD's with all the layers - dragged them over to a new document of the same size, saved it - and the file and preview in finder works fine.
Obviously there's something of around 18mb in weight in all of our old files that is causing a real issue with finder and previews. Other than layers (as there are none) - what could it be? We're using a mix of cs6 / cc and cc 2014.
Any help on this would be appreciated!

OK, that means that the Finder is having problems with that folder. That could be due to corrupt disk data structures, or you could be hitting some of the known (and not yet fixed) bugs in MacOS's Finder related to thumbnails and metadata parsing.
As for file size - other metadata (especially image history, and sometimes color profiles) can really add to the file size.

Lion Mail preview not loading / showing emails

After upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion, the new Mail program is not working correctly.
It appears many of my messages (in the inbox, sent, drafts) only have the email address and header, and don't have any text in the actual email....so in the preview pane, it just says loading....and nothing loads. I have seen others postings similar problems online. I've tried some of the solutions, none worked.
I can send and received new emails - and they show up fine in the preview pane.
All the emails in mailboxes I've created On My Mac in mail are fine.
How do I get all my emails in the inbox, drafts and sent to show up correctly?
Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Hi DreamsPower:
I did not have any luck with the rebuild mailbox command, or other solutions posted online, so this is what I did to restore my missing mail:
1) run time machine so I have a backup of my current Lion Mail programs data.
2) deleted all the messages (inbox, drafts, sent, etc.) that would not show anything in preview window. Since I had sent and received a number of emails after installing Lion....and these new emails showed up fine in preview, so I did not delete them.
3) opened up time machine backup to a date just before I did the Lion upgrade, and then restored the Mail programs data folder (users>library>mail) to my desktop. This gives me a copy of the Mail program data files (all my emails) before the Lion System/Mail upgrade. Then opened the appropriate mailbox subfolder folder (from the restored mail folder on my desktop), such as the inbox, and then opened the messages folder or folders in the inbox (there may be several and they may be buried in numbered folders). The message folder(s) will have your emails (the emails will have numbers for names). Then I just option dragged (copied) the email messages and dropped them in my Lion Mail programs inbox, and now my inbox has all my missing messages. Did the same for the drafts and sent emails. So now I have all my mail and they show up when previewed. Since the messages in my other mailboxes were fine, I did not need to delete and replace them.
Hope this makes sense.....

Mail 6 preview not loading

Hi,
The picture is pretty self explanatory. Sometime, not always but pretty often, mail won't detect that I selected a message and won't show it in the preview space. If I double-click on the message is opens and I can see it, but not in the space, so it's not because the message hasn't been loaded on the computer yet. Who can fix this?
Thanks

Okay - I fixed it. Here's what I did.
- Deleted the entire mail folder inside my Preferences folder. ~/Library/<userfolder>
- Kept the files in the trash just in case, but didn't need them
- Rebooted
- Opened the System Preferences
- Selected "Mail, Contacts & Calendars"
- Verified the previous account was gone
- Clicked Create
- Created a new account and then opened Mail
- Voila! Email
Note - if you trash the mail folder inside Preferences, it will delete any local emails. All my email is IMAP and I never store anything locally, so everything syched right back when the account was recreated.
Good luck. Hope this helps.

Why does preview not load a group of sequential files in order? The first is placed randomly!

Since upgrading to Lion, I have found that when I grab a group of sequentially numbered jpgs that they all load in the proper order except the first. The first is placed randomly in the list. Since I want to go through the files in the sequential order this can be quite annoying.
I load about 70 to 150 at a time and Preview has the same behavior each time.
I seem to recall this happened with OS X back a few versions and then it was rectified.
Anyone else have the same problem or can duplicate the problem.
Is there a way to submit this bug to Apple?

Indesign Folio Desktop Preview not loading/working?

Hi, I'm trying to preview my Folio that I made in Indesign CC and the preview doesn't seem to be working. I press the Preview on Desktop option, the loading bar window pops up with "Preparing Preview" :
and then it goes away and nothing happens. I've already installed and updated everything that I can find related to this issue including the DPS Desktop Tools for InDesign CC from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5657&fileID=5661 and the Adobe AIR from http://get.adobe.com/air/
Does anyone know how to get the preview to work for Indesign CC? Thank's for your help!

I was able to get the preview to work after unistalling Indesign and reinstalling. Guess i'll never know what caused the problem in the first place but I just thought I'd post my solution incase anyone is having the same issue.

Preview not loading from PDF

Since moving to Mavericks, any time I click on a PDF link Preview keeps saying "Loading Preview" but nothing happens. I have to print from the system dialog.

Preview not showing PDFs properly

I am having major problems reading PDF files, On a snow leopard mac they work fine, but on my leopard mac it doesn't read them properly. Characters go missing etc. They load fine in Adobe Reader. See Attachment.

Preview uses 3 configuration, or .plist, files. Sometimes .plist files can become corrupt which can mess up an application. With Preview not loaded, find them in library/preferences and rename them: com.apple.preview.plist, com.apple.preview.bookmarks.plist, and com.apple.preview.ImageSizingPresets.plist. When you bring up Preview next time, it will create the default versions of the files. If Preview now works, drag the renamed files to the trash and empty the trash.

Images are not loading - but work in Preview mode

Hi -
I was wondering if anyone can help me. I'm kind of new to Dreamweaver and I can't seem to figure this out on my own.
I'm using Dreamweaver 8. I developed a web page based on a template in which everything works perfectly in "Preview" mode on all browsers. But when I uploaded the files to my remote hosting, the template based images (found in the "images" folder) are not loading on the page. The images that I added to the template myself, found in the same "images" folder ($200,000 in ..., and picture at bottom) are loading. So some of the images in the images folder are loading some are not.
I've checked the Images folder on the remote site, and they all seem to be there. I've also checked for broken links, and I'm not getting any (I don't know if that would help w/ missing images or not, but I'm trying everything I can think of). I also checked to see if there is a separate CSS style sheet, and there wasn't one supplied with the template (there is some CSS info in the code on the html page). The image sizes are all small enough as well. Can anyone help me with this?
You can view one of the pages at: http://www.200kin5months.com/squeeze-video.html
Thank you in advance to anyone who might be able to help!

PS - I've attached a screenshot from Dreamweaver Preview to show what it is supposed to look like.

Your Web server is running on an operating system that is case-sensitive. You appear to have uploaded an Images folder, but not an images folder.
You do not have a file here:
images/squeeze-video_425x344_r9_c6.jpg
But you do have a file here:
Images/squeeze-video_425x344_r9_c6.jpg
So you'll need to either change all your image/<whatever> links to point to Images/<whatever>, or upload another folder named images.
Or, if you want to use a single folder, and if your local file system is not case-sensitive, you might be able to do it in DW's file panel. Here is a method that you might use to have all of them in a folder named images.
BACK UP YOUR SITE FILES
Rename Images to Foo (allow DW to update links)
Rename Foo to images (allow DW to update links)
Upload the images folder and any/all files that DW changed
Delete the online Images folder

Images are not loading/not loading completely, persona previews no longer works with scrollover - even after complete uninstall/reinstall, but images work in IE - suggestions on how to fix this??

Images on websites often do not load or load incorrectly/incompletely load even after refreshing page and clearing caches. Often have to "clear recent history" 5 or 6 times within a single firefox session to get working links, images, completely loaded pages. The persona previews no longer do an "automatic preview" with a scroll over and now i no longer even get an image on the page to scroll over (images are just NOT THERE). I have done the safe mode test, have updated everything suggested, have checked all add ons as suggested in the troubleshooting guide and NOTHING shows as being a problem. I even did a complete uninstall and reinstall and it is STILL not working. Worried that it was an issue with my computer, i checked the pages in IE, and they worked PERFECTLY. I am uncertain what to do now. It started as a problem once or twice a week, and now it is EVERY time i bring up Firefox. Help?

the second article did offer a suggestion that SEEMS to have helped ::crosses fingers:: - an about:config, resetting of the preferences for images. we'll see how long it lasts. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the suggestion, the article wasn't one i'd found while searching for troubleshooting info.
Java script is enabled, but the persona's stuff still isn't working. dang it. WELL, one thing seems to work now, at least. thank you.

Even pages not loading/printing in print preview

Hi guys,
I've been using Firefox for a number of years & it wasn't until yesterday (06 April 15) that I encountered an issue with printing... When trying to print my eBay invoices, everything loads fine but then when I go into Print Preview only the odd pages appear to have loaded completely, all of the even ones only have 1 or 2 lines of text on them.
I have restarted the browser, the pc, run all of the tests, tried other browsers (where everything loads), deleted the printer settings as per the help pages, etc but all to no avail.
Any helps would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

This is strange, in another thread I had suggested that it was a stored preference in the presets to only print odd pages, but even in the print preview this happens. If you save the invoice locally and open it with a preview, does the pdf not load these pages? This will tell if its something to do with the pdf.

Preview in Browser - IE6 - not loading

Has anyone had problems getting DW8 Previewing in IE6.
I have for sometime just lived with the problem - opening IE6
outside
of DW8 - but it's much easier just to click the Preview in
Browser
button.
I have set up the browsers in Edit Browser List - but IE just
refuses
to start.
I have Firefox & Opera working normally using this method
- it's just
IE6 not being started up.
One other clue - if the Preview in temporary file is enabled
- IE
loads. If Preview in temporary file is NOT enabled - IE does
not
load.
I like to use no temporay file at times - so the problem is a
real
pain at times.

When I click the preview icon it does not load.

When I click the Preview icon ti does not load. what can I do?

Are you sure it doesn't start? Just opening preview doesn't open a file. Look in the top left of the menubar and see if it says preview. Double click on a PDF file and see if that opens preview.
