PSE 8 Mac---thumbnail for actions I install doesn't show up

Hello,
I am hoping to get some advice here.
I recently upgraded to PSE 8 for Mac.  I have a number of actions (.atn files) that I purchased in the past and use with PSE.  I installed just one of them to make sure I could get it to work in the new program before I installed the rest of them.
The action is installed, it works, but there is no thumbnail image to show which action it is.  If I mouse-over the black box where the action is, I get text that shows the name of the action.  That, of course, will work, but is impractical, and it seems unneccessary, to run the program that way!
Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on what I need to do?
Thank you so much for your help.
DeLynn

Thank you, Barbara.  I can see that is the problem.  There are actually files there that show up when I look in the photo effects file (a thumbnail that is the appropriate size), but I just tried to open them in PSE and got an error message.  I will go back to the original file and start from there. 
Thank you for the help.
BTW, I looked for your book for PSE 8 yesterday but didn't see it.  I will order it! I love your Missing Manuals!

    I'm trying to download java on my Mac machine but the software update doesn't show me anything. Please advise what I should do to get the application.

    If you can run it under chrome, you have java installed.
    There was some malware that exploited an older version of Java (not javascript) running in a Browser. Since few people use it Apple turned off Java by default in the Safari Browser.
    If you need it for something, just turn it back on in Safari preferences (inside Safari). After a few months of non-use, you may find it has turned itself off again.

  • I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?

    I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?
    and in system report >> hardware >> Graphics/Display >> it shows both grafics card listed.

    Some Mac's when the RAM is increased the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics will bump itself up to the higher video RAM it takes, this seems to be what occured.
    It also means the dedicated graphics card will be used less, but only so slightly less.
    You obviously still should have both, you can test this by turning off Graphics Switching in Energy Saver, that will use the decicated AMD card all the time.
    You can also run Cinebench and compare the scores here

  • How come Mac OS X's Software Update doesn't show a total time ETA and size?

    Hello.
    I noticed when downloading big updates from Mac OS X 10.5's Software Update, it doesn't show the TOTAL time left and size. It only shows the individual updates (e.g., iTunes). Is there a way to show the totals especially when downloading takes forever?
    Thank you in advance.

    Well not in Software Update, but if you download standalone updates directly from Apple's download site - support.apple.com/downloads/ - using Safari then you will get that information reported in the browser's download manager. However, Software Update does report the size of each listed update.
    Yeah, I wanted to know the total of all updates since some updates are so huge. Like Java update 5 is like over 160 MB! Add iTunes and others! Yikes.

  • I got a new iphone 5 because they couldn't fix the old one, can I download Iwork for free, because it doesn't show free in app store

    if you get a replacement iphone from apple after 1st of september can you download Iwork for free? Because it doesn't show free in the app store

    Pages, Numbers, Keynote, iPhoto and iMovie are free only with new devices, a refurb does not count.

  • Can I burn PSE 12 download for off line install?

    If I buy the PSE 12 upgrade download from Adobe, does the download include all of the files that I need to burn to a DVD so I can do an off-line installation on another computer? I am concerned that the download will just be an installer that requires an Internet connection to perform the installation. Thanks.

    Obviously I did not make myself clear. Sorry. I have PSE 11 installed and I have an Adobe Id. I assume that when I download the PSE 12 update I will get a new license key. If I have the installation files on a DVD or hard drive and I need to install without an Internet connection I should be able to do so and run in trial mode until I get connected. I do understand that if I have to reinstall on a different machine I will have to have an Internet connection to register the new machine.
    Normally I would wait until early December when Costco has the boxed product. They always have a better price than any altenative I have found. Unfortunately, because I have a new Canon 70D and only PSE 12 supports the 70D I would like to get it now. I can use the DNG converter to edit images, however, there is no way to get the Canon 70D RAW files into the Organizer and that will become a larger and larger problem that I will have to fix when I finally do get PSE 12. Thanks to both yourself and John for your help.

  • Error message of MAC flapping for CCM-UC installed in UCS server

    Hello,
    I believe you'll get better answer at:
    "https://supportforums.cisco.com/search.jspa?peopleEnabled=true&userID=&containerType=14&container=2003&spotlight=true&q=UCS"
    my best guess is to check the LAN config on the UCS. It seems its trying to load balance the traffic in Active-Active rather than Active-Standby.

  • Ipad2: Imovie was deleted, re-install doesn't show original created movies

    My daughter had created a number of movies in iMovie on the iPad.  Our first one was dropped and I took it to the Apple store and they replaced it (Thank You, Apple store Pioneer Square!!!!) 
    When I plugged the new one in, it re-installed everything, including all the movies that my daughter created, just as if it was the first iPad we had.
    Now, my other daughter(#2) just deleted iMovie, and when I re-installed it, it's like a new program, none of the movies daughter #1 created are on there.
    Seems like they must be on my computer if they re-installed on the new iPad after the first was broken.  Should I click "restore"?   Does that bring it back to factory specs or to the last backup?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Note:  I've searched for this answer on my own for quite awhile now, through norums and Apple help, with no luck.

    If via iTunes on your computer you restore to the last backup then you will get whatever was stored in that backup back on the iPad - so anything that you've changed on the iPad since the backup was made will be removed from the iPad. You will need all the relevant apps on your computer's iTunes for the restore to work, as a backup contains an app's data and content, but not the actual apps themselves (so for the restore to work iTunes needs access to the apps so that it can install them and therefore their content).

  • Mac Mini Ethernet port gone bad, doesn't show in network preferance pane?

    My friend 's Mac Mini was doing fine then he shutdown disconnected everything and brought it over to my house for LAN games. He then couldn't get online through my router. I told him go to his network pane to see what kind of error it was giving, cable errors IP but no internet...etc, and only internal modem was displayed in the list. So I immediately went to his port setting and ethernet was checkmarked. So then I thought well maybe some PMU reset problem so I tried the resets and still not present from the network pane. So then I hooked my external hd to his firewire as a startup drive to eliminate that it just wasn't a software problem and it is still not showing up on network pane. I then skimmed through some online articles and things but to no avail. I just was thinking it was a 5 minute drive from his house to here and he said didn't do anything different from the other times he was here but something must have jarred it or perhaps just a coinseidense that the ethernet port went out when he was coming over. And to top it off he had made arrange for next weekend to sell it to a friend and get a new Intel iMac, which right now has to be put on the backburner until he has a working unit again. Applecare is up so that is out of the question. Any suggestion out there would be appreciated. Or is it just beyond easy fixes and has to either be repaired or keep and save from scratch for a new one?

    OMG, guys I feel so dumb the new update to Tiger changed the way network pane worked so that was the whole problem its normal under 10.4.5 so plugged in a good cable and it came up fine go figure right. For being Apple certified for repair I sure looked past such an easy solution.

  • I'm missing the back cover and flap for my book. Doesn't show up in the interface. How can I restore these?

    I'm missing the back cover and flap for my book in the layout interface. Does anyone know how to restore these?  I've searched the interface but can't find an option to add cover/flap. Don't want to order a book without it.
    Any advice is welcome!

    Time to repair you library: do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
    3 - if necessary repeat with Option #1, Repair Permissions.

  • Billed for purchase, but purchase doesn't show up

    Hi!
    I tried to purchase an album off the iTunes store. I clicked "Buy", signed in, all that good stuff. I received a dialog box asking me if I was really sure that I wanted to buy the album. And, to be safe, I said no. So, I thought everything was fine, until I realized I had still been charged the $8.00 for the album, but the music wasn't in my purchase history or available downloads list. This is a huge problem - I just lost almost $10.00! Anyone had this happen, and if so, how can I fix it? Thanks in advance.

    I've been trying to figure out why everytime i delete files from my system drive, it doesnt show up in my trash bin.
    Has anyone encountered the same issue?
    Would appreciate any help guys.

    ~/.Trash
    2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Show Info
    from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
    3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
    4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
    5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.

  • WSDL for portlet based taskflow - doesn't show up input parameter

    Hi,
    I have created a taskflow which takes an input parameter in an ADF application. When I drag and drop on the page it works as expected.
    My requirement is to show this taskflow as part of webcenter portal app.
    I have created portlet entry based on this taskflow. When I deploy this ADF application, in the generated wsdl I am not finding the inputParameter which I have defined in taskflow. I am looking for how to pass parameter when I embed/consume this portlet in webcenter portal.
    I can see the parameter in generated [portlet.xml|http://adf-sample.googlecode.com/files/wsrp2.xml] file. And for the taskflow (in portlet section) the parameter is picked in public render parameters.
    Any hints would be appreciated.
    I am using Jdev 11.1.1.5

    Hi Daniel,
    Thanks for the update.
    Well, I haven't thought of this approach. I will try and let you know. Pls share if you have any reference for this.
    Appreciate if you can also share, when to go for taskflow based portlets vs consuming taskflows directly in portal app.
    Thanks,
    Srini.
