PS5 quit creating thumbnails when saving

Recently, when I save PhotoShop 5 photo files, they no longer create image thumbnails, just pixelated squares. Is there an adjustment to correct this? Thanks. I am running CS5 on an iMac with OS 10.75.  I am creating photo files from scanned b&w negatives layered with colored scans of aged papers and saving them as tif files for printing.

Curt - I belive I'm using the wrong term for the icon/thumbnail and that's the confusion. I'm referring to the small picture that appears with the file name on my desktop or within a folder.  Ordinarily there's an actual miniature picture. If I view these in a folder and click on one, there's still a larger thumbnail of the file that appears.  It's only the small picture that is missing.  I am reading in the community and I need to download a new update. Possibly this might make a difference.  Will see. Thanks.

  • Thumbnails when saving... Just like in Photoshop.

    When it exports it should really make thumbnails like it does in p-shop.
    That's all.
    I'll be here all week.

    Lee Jay, you are also not a PSCS user. I don't know if this happens on a PC or not but on a Mac when saving in PSCS, the Image icon instead of being a generic PS icon with TIFF or JPEG or the like appended to the Icon, an Icon sized thumbnail image is generated for the image and used individually for each image.
    LR does not do this. The OP and others would like it to. This is as apposed to the preview on can see in a finder window or, I presume in Expolorer.
    A Mac does this for you on the Desktop, but not in a Folder view Finder Window.
    It does, however with an option change do it the single FOlder View. I had not known this 'til now.
    OP:
    Go to a Finder window. Click on the left hand view option. Colntrol Click in the Window for Show View Options and select 'Show Icon Preview'.
    Does that work for you?

  • Droplet overwriting created file when saving

    I having issues with my droplet.I'm using CS4.
    I created an action that opens the pdf file, resizes it to 500 width, saves to a drop folder (NOT the same as original image folder) and then closes.
    I created a droplet for this action. I have overides for the Open and Save As commands checked. And Suppress the File Open Dialogs. I have the folder going to that same drop folder as my action with the file name as document name + extension.
    I drag my files onto the droplet and it appears to be working. Only problem is it keeps overwriting the file name with each new one. I've got one image in the folder (out of five that I'm testing with) instead of each image saved. What the heck? I've never had this issue before.
    Just to be clear, it's not overwriting the original image. It's overwriting the created image over and over.
    I have also tried the Image Processor with no luck there either. I've used it with that same action which creates one PSD file over and over, even though I tell it to create a JPG. I've also tried it without the action and it does nothing.

    When you created the Droplet, did you choose Destination: Folder, and did you choose [ ] Override Action "Save As" Commands?
    You will need to do so, and specify Document Name for the File Naming field, if you want it to work the way you are describing.

  • 2 outputs getting created simultaneously when saving the document

    Dear SDNers,
    I have a shipment Document.
    Upon saving it 2 Outputs- LAVA for (EDI) get generated at the same time.
    Clarification needed:
    1. Please guide as to where i need to look for the error as to why 2 outputs are getting triggered simultaneously( gap of 1 second).
    2. i have checked in the processing routine associated with it. Is it the right place?
    Regards,
    SuryaD.

    Hi Nagaraj,
    thanks for your response.
    So if i understand right, you mean to say that if 2 condition records are maintained, then 2 outputs migh get created.
    Right.

  • Can't create folder when saving docs; can create on desktop but can't move

    This is boggling. When I choose "save" or "save as" for the first time in Word or Excel, and then "create new folder," it asks me to name the folder, and then tells me it can't create it. The error simply says "Could not create folder." So I created a new folder on the desktop, which worked fine, but when I tried to drag it into the folder I wanted it to live in, I got a pop-up that said "You cannot copy some of these items to the destination because their names are too long for the destination."
    1) There is only one item - an empty folder.
    2) The name of the folder is "blah" -- which is in no way too long.
    What the heck is happening? This only started today.

    I just went through your instructions, and the DU window says that it found a bunch of things that need repairing, but won't repair them.

  • When saving a file in [.jpg] format, i am asked to choose a quality from 1 to 100. what changes in the file created based on the quality parameter chosen?

    when saving a file in [.jpg] format, i am asked to choose a quality from 1 to 100. what changes in the file created based on the quality parameter chosen?. i would like to know what changes, so in the future i can set my camera to a setting that will give me the highest quality to begin with,allowing me to make crops and still preserve the quality.
    thank you
    dovid

    It's the level of compression. Lower number, more aggressive compression, more visual artifacts.
    Aside from that you should never use jpeg as a working format. The compression is destructive and cumulative, and the file deteriorates every time you resave it.
    Use TIFF or PSD, and if you need jpeg save out a copy as a single final step.

  • How do i stop photoshop cs4 from quitting unexpectedly when saving a photoshop pdf? i attempted to download the adobe drive 5 but the installation keeps failing.

    How do i stop photoshop cs4 from quitting unexpectedly when saving a photoshop pdf? i attempted to download the adobe drive 5 but the installation keeps failing. I went through the process of clicking through the how to's and the troubleshooting and came to the conclusion that I need to install the adobe drive 5 but I can not complete the installation. I may be incorrect on this so I need immediate assistance as I have poster and ad deadlines. I also tried disabling the gatekeeper and solution 3 on the troubleshooting of slow saving on photoshop.
    Any help is much appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Are you attempting to save the file to a network location instead of your local hard drive? If so, this is probably why you are encountering an issue and why Adobe Drive would be the solution. As we've documented, it is a bad idea to open from or save directly to a network source: Networks, removable media | Photoshop | CS4 and later. Drive can help you get around this by setting up an Adobe supported virtual connection to the network. Thus, if installing Adobe Drive is the solution you need and your need help with installing Drive, please post to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.
    If you are not saving to a network location, then Adobe Drive is not going to be the answer. Then we'll need to know more about the file you are saving.

    It depends on the original format and the destination format of the file.
    PS: You should upgrade to version 11.0.1

    To be completely honest, FCPX is a RAM hog. It just is. But, RAM is relatively cheap, and the pay-off is good.
    4GB is right on the edge, IMHO. 16G is ideal.

  • Is there a way to reduce the size of a final PDF created for print when saving a file?

    Is there a way to reduce the size of a final PDF created for print when saving in any software (especially illustrator)? I don't want any quality to decrease at the same time. Thanks!

    Personally I would avoid optimizing the PDF's via Adobe Acrobat Pro unless you understand what you are removing from the PDF; having said that, it is the most effective way to reduce the file-size in the right hands.
    If I am sending out layouts for commercial print I change my default Print / Export setting from Standard to PDF/A-1b:2005 (CMYK). This will resolve a lot of common print problems for print-ready documents and it should embed your fonts and flatten transparencies etc.
    If your document is still too large you run an Audit Space Usage using Adobe Acrobat Pro. In the left pane enable 'Content' and then hit the button in the top left corner of the Content Pane and choose Audit Space Usage.

  • Preinstalled Pages quits when saving

    I got my new iMac preinstalled with Pages, Numbers and Keynote.
    The update wouldn't work in Appstore so I downloaded it manually.  Even after update (and I checked in the apps that they were the current version Pages 4.3 etc) Appstore still asked me to update apps
    Ever since updating whenever I try to save in any iWork program it quits. (Not fun as I am currently writing my MA thesis!)  Deleted Pages, Numbers and Keynote to try to reinstall, but only Keynote showing up in my purchases to reinstall.  Did that and it appears to be working fine.  Put back Pages and Numbers from trash.  Still can't update in Appstore (even though they are up to date).  And still quiting whenever I try to save.

    Turns out it only quits when saving to iCloud.  I still don't know why!

  • Adobe Reader XI (11.0.08) doesn't create thumbnail (bitmap) using Microsoft Interface IExtractImage -- Extract on Windows Server 2008 R2, when exe to generate thumbnail is launched from Windows service.

    Adobe Reader XI (11.0.08) doesn't create thumbnail (bitmap) using Microsoft Interface IExtractImage --> Extract on Windows Server 2008 R2, when exe to generate thumbnail is launched from Windows service.
    But if exe is launched as standalone, then interface IExtractImage --> Extract, gives Bitmap to generate thumbnail of PDF document.
    Above problem occurs only for PDF documents, if we tried same with other software like CAD -CATIA it works without any problem.
    Is there any security concerns form PDF side, which doesn't allow to generate Bitmaps, if exe to generate it is launched form Windows service.

    It might be deliberate, Acrobat and Reader software is not intended to run in a service environment.

  • I am using a MacPro running OS 10.6.8. When saving an image in PS CC I no longer have a thumbnail of the image in my folder , just a generic PS symbol thumbprint. What do I do to get my image thumbnail back?

    I am using a MacPro running OS 10.6.8. When saving an image in PS CC I no longer have a thumbnail of the image in my folder , just a generic PS symbol thumbprint. What do I do to get my image thumbnail back?
    Adobe Creative Cloud

    Photoshop CC needs at least OSX 10.7-10.9
    You may be able to install and run it on 10.6.8, but as I understand it the rules for generating thumbnails has changed with Apple and CC writes them to suit the required OSX.
    Photoshop CS6 will always give you image thumbnails but CC and CC 2014 have had thumbnails generated differently for the required OSX.
    You will have to upgrade to 10.7,10.8, or 10.9

  • When I try to open I Movie the screen appears with the message creating thumbnails and all my projects have disappeared. Then everything freezes and I have to force close my Macbook Pro

    When I try to open I Movie thes screen appears with the message "creating thumbnails" and then freezes. None of my events or projects appear in the libraries. I cannot close I Movie or my computer and have to force shut down my Macbook. This is a sudden occurence.

    You can never, never transfer an installed copy of PSE. It's just too complex and it strews stuff all over your hard drive in places the migration assistant is not programmed to look. Now you will need to download and run this:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    after which you can go around and manually remove all the bits from Applications, the library at the top level of your hard drive>application support>adobe, and your username>library>preferences. Spotlight will not help with this; it's programmed to skip these kinds of files.
    Then you can reinstall from scratch. Let us know if you need help finding the library folders.
