Thumbnails disappear when change to any folder

In Photoshop CS2 when I first start Bridge (CS2 1.0.4.6) my thumbnails show up fine for the Desktop. As soon as I change to any folder the thumbnails turn all white. No matter what folder I change to they are all white, and the number of thumbnails stays the same regardless of how many images are in the folder.
When I return to the Desktop folder, all the thumbnails are white. If I close Bridge and reopen, the Desktop thumbnails reappear until I change folders again.
Can anyone help - my Bridge is definitely broken.

1. Do you have adequate cache space? Is it on C drive, or a dedicated drive or partition? If it is nearly full that could cause problems.
        - 35 GB available on C: using a centralized cache in default location
2. Compact the cache. That will get rid of all unmached files and thumbnails, and reduce its size.
        - I have no option in Bridge to compact the cache that I can find - either in the preferences or from the cache menu (I am using Bridge CS2 with Photoshop CS2)
3. Delete temp file with a product like cclean
        - What temp file? I have used CCleaner on numerrous occassions for cleaning up but only recall some files located in a   \CameraRaw\cache location
4. Go to a folder that has problems. Then go to Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder
        - Did this many times - does not fix problem.
5. Close program then restart and see if problems are still there in xxx folder
         - same as #4 - opened and closed Bridge and Photoshop many times trying to purge and rebuild. still broken.
6. Open Windows Explorer and look at thumbnails. Look at contents of each folder closely and see if any do not have a thumbnail. That would indicate you have corrupted files there or bad suffix. Figure out what it is and fix or delete
     - The files are all okay - Windows Explorer displays thumbnails and I have no problem using Adobe Lightroom and working on any of the files.

Video tracks disappear when changing between sequences in premiere CS6

Dear people, can you please help me find out why video tracks disappear when changing between sequences in premiere CS6.
All it shows is the audio track and it is maximized to the first frame of the sequence. Video tracks are there but hidden - although video IS showing up in the program monitor.
When I pull the tracks down in the timeline window using the dividing line between the video and audio tracks and set the sequence work area back it works fine, however it is a great annoyance having to do this every time when i swap between sequences.
Can anybody please suggest a solution to this?
I'd appreciate any help.
MD

This is the audio tracks problem i cannot overcome:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1586025
(basically every type of audio i drop/place onto the timeline becomes left channel only, regardless of it being music or camera-recorded audio.
In the source monitor everything plays back just fine, but when placed to the timeline - it becomes LEFT only.
Weird.... (or am I and not it)

Files disappear when creating a new folder

I'm new to mac....got a macbook this week. I'm in Iraq so I have very limited access to anything. No internet for my mac at the moment...so I can't update even if there are ones. I assume I have the currenct version of everything though. The question...
While switching over my files I decided to reorganize them. I'm working on my external HD and creating many new folders for all my files. On numerous occasions now (4) I have created a new file the standard way...right click>new>file...then named it. On these occasions I have done this it has renamed the previous file I had worked in (even though it was not selected) and then the contents of the file disappeared. This leaves me with the new file I created and another identical file of the same name...now with nothing in it. Some of my files I have backed up, but the last one deleted many videos that I didn't. Happens randomly at no particular time. If I select the file and view its contents often it will briefly change its name back to the original name, but still nothing in it. Then next selection of anything will switch it back. Have not been able to fine the files anywhere. Tired of losing my files. Any ideas??? Thanks.

Hi Craig and Welcome to Apple Discussions....
First of all, thank you for all you are doing. It's so appreciated! Just be safe and come home soon.
Now... I have a feeling your external hard drive is the culprit. Read here:
Changing the names of items
You can easily change the name of a file, folder, or disk on your computer.
IMPORTANT: To avoid problems using Mac OS X or applications on your computer, don't move or change the names of folders that came with your system (such as the Library folder or your home). You should also not change the names of applications or items associated with specific applications. If you accidentally change the name of an installed item and you experience problems, you can change the name back.
Locate the item you want to rename on your desktop or in a Finder window.
Click the item to select it, then click the name. The name is highlighted and you will be able to edit it.
Type the new name and press Return.
Some document names have a file extension, such as ".txt" or ".jpg." If you change the name of a file and delete the extension, some applications may no longer recognize the file. To ensure the file can be recognized by the application that created it, change only the part of the name that comes before the extension, or open the file using the appropriate application, then save the file with a new name.
You cannot change the name of an item in the Finder window's sidebar. You must locate the item on your desktop or in a Finder window to highlight and change the name.
And more here:
Getting information about files and folders
You can view and modify information about files, applications, and volumes in the Info window. This information can include:
Comments that Spotlight can search on
Who can view and modify the item.
The applications that can open it.
Metadata that describes a file's contents and how it was created. For example, a photo's Info window may contain the picture's dimensions, exposure time, and the make and model of the camera.
To see information for one or more items, select the items and choose File > Get Info. An Info window opens for each selected item.
To see a summary of information about several items, select the items then hold down the Control key as you choose File > Get Summary Info. A window summarizes information on all selected items, including their total size.
To see information about each item as you select it, select one of the items then hold down the Option key as you choose File > Show Inspector. An Inspector window displays information on the selected item. When you select another item, the Inspector's contents are replaced with information on that item.
I realize that's a lot to digest and your time might be limited. This is something that only takes a few minutes and might help immediately.
Go to MacintoshHD/Applications/Utilities and locae Disk Utility. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left and then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Depending on the size of your drive, it should only take a few minutes. When it's finished, Quit Disk Utility from the Menu.
Here's how to find out exactly which Mac OS you are running. Click the Apple logo top left of your screen then click, About This Mac. A pane will open. Just under "Mac OS X" will be the version number. ie., 10.4.x
Reboot your MacBook and see if this helps.... I'm retired and have time... if you need one on one help e-mail me: [email protected]
It's the least I can do

Sound disappears when changing speaker config

Hello all, I currently have a bit of an annoying issue when using my x-fi titanium card in vista 64 bit.
When I goto change my speaker config from headphones to 5.1 or vice versa, the sound from the running apps disappears
and I have to restart the applications for sound to come back. For example I am playing a song in winamp, i change speaker config
from 5.1 to headphones, sound gone, close winamp and reopen sound is back. Same thing goes for my games.
Any possible solutions to this thanks.

The only thing I don't like about the iPhone headset solution is that the earplugs are uncomfortable, and keep falling out. I basically don't like things stuck in my ear. So I am thinking of buying an actual over-the-ears headset to plug in to the headset port.
A couple of questions:
- Is there any reason at all to go USB headset instead? It seems like a waste of a USB port since there is a headset jack.
- Is there any way of switching the output sound back to the speakers while the headset is plugged in? Or do I have to physically unplug it each time it is not in use for a Skype call (which is the only time I would use it)?
Thanks,
doug

Manually Added Adhoc Approvers disappears when change the Schopping Cart

Hi All,
We are facing a problem in the Shopping Cart , whenever we are login in to the change mode of check status the manually added approver get disappears.Any point on this will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Mahesh Mohan D

Hi,
We are manually adding the users , the system is not determining the approvers for some of the cost centers this is basically for giving the option for user to select his/her approver . Here we are manually adding the two levels of approvers .
For the manual approval case we are using Adhoc-Approval workflow.
We have a scenario for a particular account assignment category, the approvers are not determined through the n-step approval badi but are added manually in the approval preview.
In the case when requisitioner changes any data in the shopping cart which is in awaiting approval or which is rejected by any approver and present in requesitioner inbox, the manually added approvers are disappeared and no approvers are displayed in the approval preview and when the workflow is retriggered with no approvers.
Is there anyway we can store the manually added approvers in the case when the requisitioner changes the cart.
Thanks And Regards
Mahesh Mohan D

Imported text formatting disappearing when changing font in character palette.

Something seems to have changed with my InDesign, and I'm not sure why. Here is what I used to be able to do.
I could import a word doc into a text box. This text would have bold, regular, italics fonts. I would select the text box, then change the font using the character palette by just changing the top font box. For example, if the font imported in as Helvetica but I wanted it all to be Futura, I would select the box and then just type Futura and all of the Helvetica bolds would become Futura Bold, and the Helvetica Italic would become Futura Italic, etc. I didn't have to select each line.
Now if I try to do that same thing, when I select Futura, it just changes ALL the text to Futura Regular. I lose all previous formatting that was imported in from the word doc.
I hope this makes sense.
How can I go back to the way it was?
PLEASE HELP! This is maddening! Not a big deal for a single flyer design but when laying out a book, this could add DAYS to the project.
thanks!

I believe the issue lies in the font palette. Here is what I used to do.
- New document.
- Create text box.
- Select text box.
- CMD + D
- Select word doc
- Text is imported with bolds, italics, etc.
At this point, let's say I want font to be Myriad Pro...but I want the bold to remain bold and italic to remain italic.
- Select text box.
- Type font name into font palette (No dropdown or popup menu used to appear, now it does). Used to just type Myriad Pro then hit return.
- Font in text would retain bolds and italics and become Myriad Pro. So if a line in the text imported as Helvetica Bold, it would now be Myriad Pro Bold.
Now when I do this, it just changed ALL of the text to ONE font. If I type in Myriad Pro, a drop-down menu appears and automatically selects Myriad Pro Condensed.
I hope that helps. I know I'm not crazy. This is what I have done forever. I use InDesign every day...and have for years. I rebooted my mac two days ago and this problem appeared. It seemed like some sort of awful update. haha. When I rebooted, I lost all of my preferences. InDesign went back to points and picas instead of inches. Smart guides appeared, I had to turn those off again. Stuff like that.
Any thoughts?

HT203521 Calendar events disappearing when changing Apple ID

My wife changed her AppleID, and her Calendar events have disappeared from her iCloud account (even though the prompt said they'd be merged).
Her contacts, notes and other iCloud info all seem to still be there. The problem persists across the entire iCloud platform (iOS, OSX, web).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Well Sir, it depends. Sometimes it depends on what email those Calendar events are hooked to. So i would suggest you try checking if her Calendar is actually connected to the right platform by going to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars - Scroll down to the bottom under Calendars - Default Calendar - Tap on it to see if its connected to iCloud or a particular email address. You can fuddle with it to see where all her events are saved. Sometimes it might be that, those events were hooked to her email or something. I hope this helps, please keep me posted.

.pdf Thumbnails disappear when installing Acrobat Pro 9

Since i have installed Acrobat Pro 9 the .pdf Thumbnails in Windows Explorer won't show up when i choose the the normal Adobe Reader 9 for standard opening .pdf Files (which i do because its faster). I'm using Win7 32bit are there any suggestions ? this is really a bad bug in my mind.

You can try this. Not sure if this will definitly help but I hope this should:
Delete the following preferences folders:
      a) ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
      b) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
      c) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
      d) ~/Library/Preferences/Acrobat Distiller Prefs
      e) ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/
Here ~ represents your home directory. Empty your trash, Restart the machine and then start the Acrobat.

My mouse disappears when moved over any text box?

After downloading Mozilla Firefox, my mouse no longer appears when moved over text boxes, such as the box I am typing in now. Any ideas? Thanks.

when your moving your arrow cursor over textbox its changes to Text cursor
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

If I highlight a file and drag or copy to my SD card sometimes but not always the file will say it has been deleted. The exclamation mark says the original file could not be found. The file is lost.

Pointer disappears when changing displays

Often when I have been working on my PB at the office, then put it to sleep and take it home and plug it into my 20" display and wake it up, there is no mouse pointer visible on the screen. The windows I was working on will have transferred to the big display, and I can tell the mouse is working, because if I move the mouse all the way to the right where the dock is and move it up and down I can see the different dock icons highlight. Occasionally I can move the mouse by "dead reckoning" to a button I need to click to save a file but usually I cannot, and sometimes the results are disastrous, I end up having to force-reboot and lose a lot of work. The problem happens in the other direction also (PB operating closed w/ 20", unplug display, goes to sleep, pointer lost when waking up.) Today that happened and I decided not to use the PB at the office. When I brought it home and plugged it into the display the pointer came back.
I have a hunch this happens more often when a Java-based app is running but I'm not sure.
Any suggestions on how to avoid this? I should be able to do this without problems, right?
Thanks

Welcome to the discussions, Chester
As far as I remember, this was a bug in later versions of OS X 10.3. I used to suffer from it too until I upgraded to Tiger (10.4), which cleared it up. I don't think it has anything to do with Java, because I rarely use Java apps and It used to happen to me a lot.

PE9 Organizer (mac) - thumbnails disappear when there are more than 5 columns

The thumbnails in my Organizer are slow to load, and if I move the slider bar to the left to show more thumbnails they are replaced with the hourglass, and the comment 'building thumbnails' appears bottom left. The thumbnails do not reappear unless I increase the size to five columns or less.
I have disabled media analysis in preferences; I have run a repair on the catalogue; I have selected all the photos and selected 'update thumbnail'. None of this has helped.
I am running PE9 on a Mac, and have about 20,000 photos in my catalogue.
Can anyone help?

Until the Thumbs are completely generated I have the same problem. After they are all generated all is okay. This only happens after I bring in very large folders of photos. Also, look at the space just to the right of the date in the bottom left corner of the screen. If the software is busy you will see a spinning wheel. Any time it is spinning the software will be very slow.

F12 Developer tools disappear when changing zones

I am trying to use the f12 developer network tool to analyze redirects. Unfortunately, every time I migrate from Internet to Intranet zone, the tool disappears. I am guessing this might be by design, but definitely limits the usefulness of the tool. Is there
a way to make it stick? Even if it stops logging, it would be better than disappearing and erasing all the captured data.

Hi，
What is your Windows version and detailed IE 11 version? Please install the latest updates for your Windows, expecially for IE.
Is there anything on your system that would impact loading a browser control from resources in a dll (specifically the F12Resources.dll under C:\program files\internet explorer\f12resources.dll)? For example do you have any virus scanners or settings that
block the loading?
Run sfc/scannow with admin right, and check if it make any differences.
Reset IE for a test if possible.

Movie and TV thumbnails disappear when sync to Ipad

Whenever I sync my Ipad to my Itunes on my MBP to add a movie or tv show to the Ipad, the rest of my movies and TV shows on my Ipad lose the thumbnails to the tv show or movies. Only way to get them back is to delete the show and movies and redownload them. This is VERY frustrating. Is there a better solution that someone knows about?
Thanks
Bryan

I don't use this feature and I'm not sure this is the reason - but do you have restrictions enabled on the devices? If so, I don't know if they will sync from iTunes. You can try turning it off it you have it enabled. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and turn it off and then try to sync the movies.
The other generic fixes would be to restart both of your iDevices and then maybe try a reset - hold down on the sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears. See if they will sync then.

Windows explorer stops working when i open any folder containing .mpg files.

it started happening after i recovered my windows 7 with One Key recovery system.i have installed latest drivers and eliminated viruses but the problem persists..plz help
