Thumbnail view for ical?

i love the mimum window for itunes (it shows only what's playing and a couple buttons for control by clicking the green window control button in titlebar)... is there a way to shrink ical down to do the same kind of thing? it would be ideal to show either a day or a month view in a thumbnail window... i didn't find any info about this searching the ical discussion or the ical help...
thanks-

I don't know whether iCal has any internal ability to perform the function you're looking for, but the Dashboard widget called iCal Events (http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/business/icalevents.html) seems to have the same type of functionality that feature would provide.

Not as far as I know - but maybe things are different in iOS (I'm on OS X)

How do I retreive my thumbnail view for my PDF file?

I saved a PDF last night at work and the thumbnail view was working
fine. When I came in this morning and opened up my document, the
document thumbnail view had disappeared. I tried opening other PDFs
I had saved previously, and the same problem persisted.

In Photoshop Express, cannot sort images in album by filename in thumbnail view (for slideshow)l.

In Photoshop Express, I want images to appear sorted by filename. In the "view as a table" it sorts fine. When I revert to the thumbnail view, the arrangement is random. The dropdown "show" list does not offer an option for showing by filename. If I select the"custom" option, it means I would need to sort 300 images by filename MANUALLY (!!!), a job that a computer does in milliseconds. Anyone with a solution? Thanks.

fwiw, with my images in the 'Folder Location' view the photos are in order by their Windows filename. That is the same order as the hardcopy album the photos came from. So I then created a PSE Album. I selected all my photos and moved them into that album. The order of the pictures was retained in the Album. That worked out great. I wanted my PSE images to be in the same order. I thought I would do it with tags. But creating an album seems to work just fine.

Year View for iCal?!

Hi,
I work a lot with projects of a few weeks length and I would really like to be able to see these in a year view in iCal. Does anybody now an addon or tool which can do that for me?
So far I just printed the year, several month per page, and saved it as pdf - which is not ideal!
I am grateful for any hint!
Valentin

Okay, I found out, that holding alt and clicking the arrows in iCal avoids the animation. But that is not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a way to use the normal keyboard shortcut cmd + arrow keys for navigation, but without that time-consuming animation.
but currently it looks like there is no solution for this problem.
shame on you apple, for not giving me the option to disable the animation.
shame on you apple, for not providing cmd + alt + arrow keys for an alternative (navigate without animation).

Thumbnail view for Library copied from Asset Library does not work

Hello ,
I created list definition based on Assed Library (I copied files from \15\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\AssetLibrary\AssetLibrary ) - I reused schema.xml and other files.
Then I added my new custom content type.
The problem is following: thumbnail view does not work now ( "/AssetLibraryDemo/Forms/Thumbnails.aspx" )
I don't have any javascript errors and any specific error in ULS log.
Can you give me advice, why thumbnail view has stopped working?

I need to use "List teplates" gallery functionality for this task.

Explorer crashing when generating thumbnails view for large (4GB) video (.TS) files

I am suffering consistent application crashes in Windows Explorer when it tries to generate thumbnails.
The error is reported as COM Surrogate has stopped working with an APPCRASH of dllhost.exe in module msvcrt.dll.
This only but always happens in the following circumstances. A folder set to view tiles or icons (with thumbnail view option NOT disabled). This folder contains several sub-folders, each of which contain video files. As explorer scans the
folder and its sub-folders, generating thumbnails for each, whenever it encounters a video file (.TS) that is 3.99GB or larger. COM surrogate crashes again. Closing COM Surrogate will then allow explorer to continue to scan the remaining sub-folders
until it encounters the next large file.
If I subsequently open one of the sub-folders where it crashed trying to generate a thumbnail, and refresh the folder, it will successfully generate a thumbnail for the video file. If I then return to the main folder and change the customization of the sub-folder
from video to document and back to video, explorer then successfully generates the folder icon with the inset video thumbnail.
I have tried this in safe mode and the problem persists.
Can anybody please help as I am pulling my hair out.

Hi Roger.
Almost all of my media files are TS, and all of my large (4GB) files are TS files, so I cannot tell if other file types have the same problem. I did try renaming the TS files to be .mpg (they still play as mpg) but this did not help.
However, I have downloaded and used ShelleExView and this has proved very useful. For the benefit of anyone else with a similar problem and using this very useful tool, I will detail the technique I used.
First, using ShellExView, I disabled various groups of extensions to identify which, if any, were relevant. After disabling/enabling each set I performed a system restart to ensure the changes took effect. This was not actually necessary as restarting
Windows Explorer (via Task Manager) works equally well (but this loses my customm Taskbar toolbar).
Also, before re-opening the folders containing the problem files, I deleted the icon cache (I could have done this manually but chose to use CCleaner's delete Thumbnail Cache option as this was quick and easy). I then viewed the folders containing
the problem files, watching to see what effect the changes in ShellExView had made.
Using ShellExView, I progfessively disabled by Type (e.g. Thumbnail, Icon Handler), then by Company (e.g. non-Microsoft), then by Product (e.g. MS Office, Windows Search). The result was that I identified the extension that was creating the thumbnails:
Icaros Thumbnail Provider (installed as part of the K-Lite codec pack).
Hoping I had found the cause, I removed K-Lite from my system and checked again. No thumbnails (as expected), but COM Surrogate continued to crash (I have subsequently reinstalled K-Lite as I need this to play my media files). Further analysys
with ShellExView then identified a further problem extension: Microsoft's MF MPEG Property Handler.
With both extensions (Icaros Thumbnail Provider & MF MPEG Property Handler) disabled, COM Surrogate does not crash. With either one enabled, but not the other, COM Surrogate crashes. These two extensions are therefore both individually causing
the crashes. This leads me to wonder if they perhaps have something in common (e.g. a dll).
Although disabling these extensions stops the crashes, I of course alos lose what they provide: file details (e.g. media length etc.) and thumbnails. So simply disabling them is not a solution.
Is it possible to idenitfy what, if anything, they have in common (which may be the true culprit)?
Alternatively, are there other ways I can continue to obtain file property information and thumnails without using these extensions?

Thumbnail view for RAW in Explorer?

This is probably a stupid question but I simply do not know and cannot find the answer. When browsing files in Windows Explorer, should I be able to see thumbnails of my RAW files?
I have ACR 4.5 installed (and it's in the right location) and can bring up and view files in ACR but it's difficult because when I chose file->open (in the Editor) all I see is the generic unknown icon, so I cannot find a specific images, which is frustrating.

Do this at your own risk, but replacing all instances of NEF by PEF; .nef by .pef and of course, Nikon by Pentax :)
(extract of a post by a Microsoft engineer)
First, an explanation:
For Windows XP SP2, Microsoft made a change in the way thumbnails are retrieved for image files.
Before Windows XP SP2, a Microsoft-supplied default thumbnail extractor was used for any file which identified in the registry as having the perceived type "image".
In Windows XP SP2, this was restricted to images with known file extensions, such as JPG, TIF, TIFF, BMP, etc.
Because NEF files are valid TIFF/EP files, this thumbnail extractor is capable of extracting the thumbnail image, but because Nikon raw files have the extension NEF, the extractor no longer has the opportunity to do so.
Following is a fix for the problem of NEF thumbnails not being visible in Windows XP SP2. But before we get there, a disclaimer:
Microsoft provides this information AS IS AND WITH ALL FAULTS, and disclaims all warranties and conditions, whether express, implied or statutory, including, but not limited to, any (if any) implied warranties, duties or conditions of merchantability, of fitness for a particular purpose, of reliability or availability, of accuracy or completeness of responses, of results, of workmanlike effort, and of lack of negligence all with regard to the information.
Now, the fix:
To restore this component's ability to extract thumbnails from NEF files, there is a simple registry change.
Under this registry key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.nef
Create this key (note there are two levels of keys):
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.nef\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}
And set the default (unnamed) value to:
{3F30C968-480A-4C6C-862D-EFC0897BB84B}
Explanation:
{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1} is the string version of the interface ID IID_IExtractImage.
{3F30C968-480A-4C6C-862D-EFC0897BB84B} is the string version of the class ID for the GDI+ thumbnail extractor.

Thumbnail View in DPS Folio Producer: Editor

Hi,
When will the thumbnail view for PDF folios become available in the DPS Folio Producer: Editor? This feature is waiting since a very long time to be implemented.
Or switch at least the behavior so the list view opens by default. Or remove the thumbnail view.
–Yves

I'll pass the suggestions along to the Folio Producer team, thanks.

Windows thumbnail viewer

can someone please point me to a good, free thumbnail viewer for PSD files in Explorer? I've googled and seen the pay ones, and saw one on CNET for free (but it only worked on 1/2 of the PSD's for some reason).
Many thanks.

I seldom look for a photo file in Explorer as I use Bridge in PsCS4. Better than Explorer, by far. If you don't like Bridge then I suggest that you try IrfanView. This is a standalone program and has nothing to do with Explorer.
My guess about some PSD photos not being shown is that they were not saved in compatibility mode. Most photo browsers cannot read the layers. However, Compatibility mode adds a flattened layer that can be read by some browsers. This can be set under Preferences: File Handling.

Can I show a color bar instead of a color bullet in iCal Monthly view for all my events in all calendars?

In the Monthly view of iCal the only events that show a color bar in the event is the Birthday Calendar. All other events in all my other calendars only show a color bullet next to the event (unless I click on that event which then shows as a color bar). I would like to know if it is possible for all the calendar events to have a color bar in the monthly view instead of just that tiny color bullet.

Greetings Judith,
Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed. By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
Example:
Today is 4-16-2012.
If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone. If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
Once the events are removed go back to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
Hope that helps.

Performance, minimum bandwidth, thumbnail previews for PDF and InDesign Files with web content viewer

Hi,
We are considering using DPS with a web content viewer for large PDFs and/or InDesign files. The client using a web viewer might have very limited bandwidth (some as low as 256Kbps). We ask:
1 - How well does the web viewer perform with very large PDFs and InDesign files (500 MB+) with limited bandwidth? Does the file stream in chunks and the PDF shows as soon as the first page or two are available, with the rest loading in the background, or does the entire file come down in one part and then shown?
2 - Can PDF and InDesign files support thumbnail previews? For example, one image per PDF page and user can scroll forward and back.
Your thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
-Stephen

Hi Stephen,
The way the web viewer works is that it converts the PDF/InDesign files to PNGs along with additional HTML assets. Assets are downloaded as they’re ready for a given page (e.g. first, page 1 is filled with its assets as they become available, then page 2, etc), so a reader wouldn’t need to wait for the entire article to load. The next few pages are also loaded in the background, so the reader wouldn’t be likely to notice lag as they flipped through pages to the next page after reading the current one. So the lag will depend on the size of an individual page.
For your question around thumbnails, the web viewer does not load a preview image so the reader would need to wait for the assets I described above to load.
Hope this helps...

I want to search Time Machine for an appointment that has been deleted from my current view of iCal. Can I "restore" a previous version of iCal without losing all the entries I've made to the calendar since that prior date?

I want to search Time Machine for an appointment that has been deleted from my current view of iCal. Can I "restore" a previous version of iCal without losing all the entries I've made to the calendar since that prior date?

No. I tried it on my Time Machine (I had just made one change today, so I knew I would not be left in the lurch if I failed) and when I clicked on restore I got this message:
It seems you have several options. I chose 'Keep Both'. I suggest that you proceed with your search.
Ciao.
