Problems with thumbnails, etc.

Yesterday I installed Elements 12 and Premiere. I then opened Elements, selected import, and imported jpeg photos/raw photos from a sony RX10 and my Nikon D700 on another card. The thumbnail pics won't show up but when I click on an hourglass the photo itself opens up. I"m on an iMac, not exactly technically oriented and I could use some help. At this point I'm just not sure what to do.

Hi,
Please try right clicking on the file > Update thumbnail
If the problem still perisists, please go to Help > System Info , go to the location of catalog as mentioned in the system info.
There you will find a "thumbs.5.cache" file, rename it to "thumbs.5.cache_old"
Now relaunch the application and see if the thumbnails get generated now.
Thanks,
Anwesha

Problem with thumbnails not showing

I am having a problem with thumbnails of psd files showing up in the Organizer for PSE 9 for mac. I get a picture of a ripped file in place of the thumbnail. If i bring that file into the editor I can see it fine, it just won't show me a thumbnail in the Organizer.

Hi,
Select the images in which you are not getting the thumbnails, then EDIT>Update thumbnail.
It should update the thumbnails.
If the issue is still there
Go to the catalog location (to see the catalog location, Click HELP>SYSTEM info>Catalog location)
Here you will find a file called thumb.5.cache, rename it to thumb_OLD.5.cache or move it to desktop.
Relaunch the PSE it will recreate the thumb.5.cache and hopefully it resolve the issue.

I have enrolled for the apple developer program but apparently have the same account name in iBooks. I need to change the iBooks account but don't know how. Do I change my apple id? Will this cause me problems with iTunes etc etc?

I have enrolled for the apple developer program but apparently already have an account with iBooks, cant have this it seems.how do I change my iBooks account, is this the apple id for my iPad and if I change this will it cause problems accessing iTunes etc?

I guess nobody knows if the crash that occured was legitimate or not? Apple phone support could do nothing for me, so I guess I am left to drive 45 minutes to the nearest store.

Firefox does not load long images, pixelates images if they are not in their original size, and has problems with thumbnails (in some sites)

Firefox has problems with images.
In sites like deviantART or ImageShack with full-view option, images that are not in full size/thumbnails get slightly pixelated e.g. http://img251.imageshack.us/f/screenshot2tq.jpg/
Long images get completely messed up if full-viewed e.g. http://img689.imageshack.us/f/screenshot5z.jpg/ (though if the file is only big, it loads just fine)
Also, thumbnails in some sites get messed up e.g. http://img201.imageshack.us/f/screenshotyr.jpg/
And in general, Firefox has more 'glitches' like not allowing to add more search engines. It wasn't like that before and I can only assume that it got messed up somewhere with updates, but I'm not really sure.
I've tried cleaning out cache, re-installing Firefox (multiple times) and even downloaded Firefox 4 beta, but the problem remains.
I use Ubuntu.
Does anyone else have similar problems? Or know where the problem lies?

Do you have the latest driver for your graphics display card?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Problem with thumbnails in Bridge CS4

I was having a problem with Adobe Bridge crashing on me when I was looking at a large amount of images - like all my 2011 images. I'd read online that I needed to purge my cache and delete my preferences by holding down the ctrl key when starting Bridge and choosing all three options to "reset preferences", "purge entire thumbnail cache" and "reset standard workspace".
I did this, but it really did not solve my problem. I'm still working on that. It did create a problem that all my raw files show up without thumbnails, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to regenerate these thumbnails. I've tried downloading the camera raw plugin and installing that again and it does not help.
My raw files are from a Pentax K100d and are pef files.
I went back to some old photos, in my 2010 folder. When it first came up it showed the thumbnail for just a brief moment. It then went blank and then up popped that stupid little flower icon that I seen when there is no thumbnail.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you so much for your response.
I am running 64 bit Vista. I have CS4 and found that the latest version of Camera Raw that I could install was version 5.7. I found the install instructions on the Adobe site. As it told me to do, I downloaded the zip file for version 5.7 and extracted. I moved the Camera Raw.8bi file from the top directory into C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats and moved the Camera Raw.8bi file from the Win64 folder into C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats.
Does this look right to you?
I can double-click on any of my raw "pef" files and I can edit them in Camera Raw, no problem. I can also look at the "about Camera Raw" and see that it shows version 5.7.
It just won't generate thumbnails.
This worked in the past. What happened to mess things up is a long story. I got a new camera, a Nikon D5100. What I did not realize was that this camera was too new for CS4 to be able to recognize. The updates that include this camera are only for CS5. At some point after I got this camera and came home with a ton of vacation pictures - saved as Raw + Jpg (so I had a ton of photos) bridge started crashing. I don't know if it was the size and or number of photos that I was trying to have visible in Bridge at one time or what. I started Goggling what could be the problem. I found one source say that I needed to reset the preferences and such and that I should start Bridge while holding the ctrl key and choose all three items to reset. I did this and my thumbnails that were there for all my old photos shot with my Pentax k100d went away. I just see a flower icon in their place. I've not been able to get them back. I have since moved all those big photo files to another folder and the crashing has stopped. Now I just have the problem that I caused.
What bothers me is that I saw a post here in this forum that says to never use the "purge cache" option from the edit > preferences box in Bridge. I can't find this post again. I have done this also before I saw that. I have also moved my cache to another location so that it had to create a new one. Still this does not work. I've restarted Bridge, rebooted, "purged the cache for the selection" and "generate high quality thumbnail". Nothing I've tried works.
Would reinstalling Bridge help? Do I have to install all of Photoshop? Do I have to uninstall first?

Problem with thumbnails loading on LR Gallery.

Hi everyone.
I am having difficulty getting galleries to upload properly, and show the jpg files after running them through Lightroom.
I use the web gallery in LR, but then when I go to view a gallery online (it looks fine my the example given in LR), random photos are not uploaded.
I have tried uploading in LR, and also FileZilla.
The error I get in File Zilla is " 550 The process can not access the file because it is being used by another process.
Critical File Transfer Error."
The thumbnails that are being left out are COMPLETELY random! The number of the image left out varies from gallery to gallery.
I have called my host, as well as my internet provider, and there is no problem on their end.
I am working on horse show photos, and need to get these galleries uploaded correctly asap.
Can anyone help please??

Problems with streaming etc

when i try to stream some videos i get the error message not enough bandwidth check internet settings.and also the flash player and real player needs up grading is this possible and how. im on t moblie in the barnsley area so this is t moblies excuse hope someone can help cheers rob

Can you stream with m.youtube.com?
I seldom have any problems with that.
Also have you tried tinytube?, it works.
For some of the Video Centre feeds you need good 3G (HSDPA) speeds to get the streams.
Cheers!
PS: I don't think you can update Realplayer or the Flash Player other that hoping that a new firmware will have some updates.

Problem with thumbnails

Hi,
I'm getting a rather worrying result when the wiki creates thumbnails for images and I wondered if other people are seeing it too.
If I upload a relatively large jpg to the site, ca. 270k, it creates a thumbnail (as it should)
However, the thumbnail is a .png (which in itself is not a problem)
However, the thumbnail is 750k in size! This is not what I expect from thumbnails!
Does anyone see the same or different?
I note that Apple have changed from using CoreGraphics to a custom, compiled, ObjectiveC plugin called appledrawstring which we have no option to tweak. I presume that appledrawstring is assuming some sort of graphic support that is only present in newer mac, I'm on an intel xServe so not a flaky machine.
Personally I have been reduced to hacking the imageUtilities.py file to stop it calling appledrawstring in the hope that Apple will overwrite it when they have sorted out the situation.
If lots of people see this effect I will log it as an error.

I have managed to solve the problem as far as I am concerned but I'm not sure it's a fix I can recommend to all of you
For a number of reasons associated with the desire to create a photo library theme for my sites I decided to install Python Image Libraries, see http://www.pythonware.com This is not a trivial task, the overall process takes about an hour and a half but it took me the best part of two days to do it right! If you're interested Google 'PIL Fink OS X' and take a look at the article by Colby Palmer, including the comments at the bottom. I can only say that it worked for me, eventually, on an xServe running 10.6.2 (If you try it and have problems drop a reply to this post and I'll try and help)
Anyway, once it's installed you have access to a rich suite of image manipulation utilities that you can include in the python code for teamsserver. Remember Apple may at any time in the future overwrite these hacks but my experience is that it's rare, they might solve your problem for you and it's easy to add the hacks back in if you keep backups of all the python....
Personally I replaced a section of the python in imageUtilities.py with the following....
def thumbnailedImagePathForImagePath(path, maxWidth = 500, maxHeight = 700):
"""This ... returns the thumbnail path"""
parentPath = os.path.dirname(path)
fileName = os.path.basename(path)
pieces = fileName.split('.')
name = '.'.join(pieces[:-1])
extension = pieces[-1].lower()
if extension in ('jpg', 'jpeg'):
logging.warn("image is a jpeg \n")
thumbName = name + '_thumb_.' + extension
thumbPath = os.path.join(parentPath, thumbName)
if os.path.exists(thumbPath):
return thumbPath
else:
(thumbWidth, thumbHeight) = appledrawstring.GetImageSize(path, 0)
if thumbWidth > maxWidth:
size = maxWidth, thumbHeight*maxWidth/thumbWidth
try:
im = Image.open(path)
im.thumbnail(size)
im.save(thumbPath, "JPEG")
except IOError:
loggin.warn( "cannot create thumbnail for", fileName)
return thumbPath
else:
return path
else:
thumbName = name + '_thumb_.png'
thumbPath = os.path.join(parentPath, thumbName)
if os.path.exists(thumbPath):
return thumbPath
else:
(thumbWidth, thumbHeight) = appledrawstring.GetImageSize(path, 0)
if thumbWidth > maxWidth or thumbHeight > maxHeight:
appledrawstring.ResizeImageToMaxWidthHeight(path, thumbPath, maxWidth, maxHeight, 0, 0)
return thumbPath
else:
return path
Note: you need to add the line
import Image
at the top of the document.
Double note: the formatter for this page has deleted all the indentation of the python code above, which is VITAL. But, if you can't work out what it should be you probably shouldn't be messing about in Python
To recap: The result is that if you upload a 273K jpg file that is larger than maxWidth you end up with a thumbnail jpg that is 73K in size rather than a png that is 738K in size. Which tends to reduce the time it takes to download the page.
p.s.
If you're interested,
I'm pretty convinced the problem is in Apples moving over to image libraries designed for graphics processing chips. (Which I agree is a good idea in principle) If you look at the HTML code that is generated for the thumbnails you will see they include information as to the size of the original image (as was the case in wiki 1) However, instead of giving the size of the original as 810*770 it's given as 809.89584738459584732*769.7463653283847463623, which rather suggests that the whole of the png is being stored as double precision floating point numbers, doh!

Problem with thumbnail icon in Organizer

Running Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit OS, installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 running organizer. Brand new installation, no previous versions installed.
I installed Elements last week and I'm trying to access my digital photos and some video clips using organizer. I used the import from files and folders to display the media files within organizer. The media files sit on a NAS (network attached storage) on drive X:. Throughtout the entire process, all I seem to see are hourglass icons and after finishing the import, continue to see same hourglass icon. I've tried to use the update thumbnail option to no avail. When I double click on the icons, I am able to see the photos/video clips with no problems.

Hi Venkat,
Have you seen this
blog post from Brian? Unfortunately, it seems to be by design and not fixable. Pay attention to the comments and particularly the one from Brian on 23 dec 2014:
"The document link problem will not be fixed. In SharePoint 2013 there are not the event receivers for documents that allow us to track the coming and going of documents."
Talking about PS2013 SP1, it fixes bugs related to icons but not this one. See this
blog for reference.
Hope this helps,

Homepage via iWeb problems with google etc.

Then I registered it at google, yahoo etc. I got a message that the registration was successful. But this happened more than four weeks ago. The page works if I type in the adress but I can't find it on any search engine.
How long does it take or made I a mistake with iWeb?
I would appreciate help.

Problems with catalog etc in Lightroom 5

I`ve got a pc with Windows 7 and Lightroom 5.
Earlier today I imported a few houndred photos into Lightroom and it was successful.
Then I had to go to the store and i closed Lightroom and turned off the computer.
When I started it again now and sat down to work on my photos I was almost shocked!
Thousands of imports is gone! Everything I`ve imported, tagged, edited etc since March seems to be gone!
What I noticed is that a startwindow from Lightroom asking me to select country - flickered just a second or two before Lightroom launched.
My identity plate setup and personal selected fonts is also gone.
User templates in the Print module is "up to date" - so no wrong there.
When I look for the catalog manually I found it with todays date but with a lot of missing data it seems....
The number shown in "All Photographs" in the Library module seems to be correct.
Can anyone please help me out?
Im almost starting to panicking now. If I`ve lost all the work I`ve done since March I am in biiiiiiig trouble.....

If you are testing this published content from a folder on your hard drive or a network LAN, then the reason the link is not working will be that you have not set up the publish folder as a trusted location in Flash Global Security.

Screen lock problems with Alarm, etc...

The Alarm notification window goes away too quickly.
I have the screen lock setting ON (so I have to slide the yellow ball up). I also have the screen lock time set to one minute.
When the alarm goes off (IF it goes off, which is another bug) the screen turns on with the slider indicating an alarm is going off, but it quickly goes away.
It doesn't stay active for the minute I have set.
Thus, I have to hit the button, then unlock the screen to snooze the alarm.
Also I noticed that the screen lock, well, works whenever it wants to. Sometimes Im asked to slide the ball, other times I am not. I should be qued to do this every time I tap the power button.
All these little bugs are making me a little leery of my Pre purchase...
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I was on vacation this weekend and set my Pre alarm to go off both mornings. The first morning it went off, but the touch screen, volume buttons, unlock, etc. were all frozen. Nothing had any effect on the Pre whatsoever. Had to completely shut down the Pre.
The next morning, it simply didn't go off at all. Triple-check the settings, and all were correct. Just deecided to not work.

Problem with generating thumbnails for Facebook

After yesterday's Business Catalyst failure (Intermittent site loading issue on all data centers) we have a problem with thumbnails for Facebook.
Our each publication has an extra tag og:title placed in the <head>. For example in this article: http://www.leftlane.pl/lip14/zanizanie-przebiegu-samochodu-w-koncu-stanie-sie-niemozliwe.h tml
there is tag <meta property="og:image" content="http://www.leftlane.pl/lip14/images/364994_8207.jpg" />
Until yesterday, every published text was getting into debugger (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/). Debugger fetch the image creating a thumbnail. Everything worked as it should.
Unfortunately, after yesterday's failure thumbnails are no longer generated. In place of the thumbnail is a white spot, like in the picture below. Can I do something to thumbnails work again?
We are using Adobe Muse (2014.1).

Just a word of warning about this facebook tester, facebook caches results for sometimes upto 48 hours, so if index the page using facebook then make a change on a page then reindex most of the time (in my dealings) it looked the same, I had to throw different querystring information into the URL or use different URLs to make it look different to facebook and get a fresh (re)index and for it to pick up changes.

Problems with the dynamic loader... And well... I SERIOUSLY messed up.

So you might call me an idiot. Go ahead... I deserve it.
I was in the process of updating my netbook over SSH because I left it back home when I went to school. I ended up running into problems with glibc etc... So I did something that I seriously regret...
I executed the command...
mv /lib/* /usr/lib*
This has to be the most retarded thing I have ever done ever... Like I'm not even shitting you.
To make things worse... I don't have busybox and have no method of getting busybox onto the computer.
Now I have seen about using the dynamic loader "ld-linux.so.2" to execute programs using a user defined library path. So I thought perfect, I can do this. The problem is... I can't find it. I looked on two healthy Arch machines at the locations and names. I used that to try this. I am sure at least I have a recent version of glibc installed (<current version>-1 I believe). But I still cannot find this at all. I am logged in as root over SSH but it fails to log in again on another session. So I have one session to work with it I can work it at all.
Do you have any suggestions to fix this? If not, I can always have someone tomorrow dd a copy of an arch iso tomorrow and possibly fix everything... But I would really like this fixed without all of that... Thanks...

See these two threads.
