Very very big grey Open dialog under Mac OS X

Well, here is something strange: on Mac, 10.10.3 as of today, the Open Dialog is deformed (see screenshot).
I tried deleting prefrences from the User Folder but that made no difference.
Anyone have a clue?

Frans, Igor,
We can see the gray space issue starting from Mac OSX 10.10.3 (works fine in earlier OSX versions) and we are investigating.
Thanks,

    Hi M0M1!
    I have an article for you that seems to describe your issue and can provide some helpful troubleshooting steps for this issue:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Specifically, you will want to focus on this section of the article:
    User-specific troubleshooting
    If you experience the issue in one particular user account, the suggestions below may resolve the issue. Before proceeding, you'll need to make hidden files and folder visible in Windows using steps 1-5.
    Remove iTunes Preference files. Some of the files that iTunes stores settings and preferences in may be unusable. iTunes saves its preferences in two folders. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The locations for the preference folders are:
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Create a new iTunes Library.
    Hold the Shift key while opening iTunes. You'll be asked to choose an iTunes library.
    Choose Create Library.
    In the following window, select a location to save the new iTunes Library.
    Click Save. iTunes will open the new library. After you close iTunes, you can always select the original library by holding the Shift key while opening iTunes.
    Recreate your iTunes Library. If your iTunes library has become unusable, rebuilding it may resolve the issue.
    Check for issues with content files. Sometimes an audio file can cause iTunes to quit unexpectedly or stop responding when it's analyzing gapless playback information. To determine which file may be causing the issue, follow the steps below:
    Quit iTunes.
    Navigate to the iTunes folder:
    Windows Vista: c:\users\username\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes
    Move the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop.
    Open iTunes. You shouldn't see any content in iTunes.
    Choose File > Add Folder to Library.
    Navigate to the folder where your music is located:
    Windows Vista: c:\users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    Choose an artist, album, or song to add to the library.
    Wait for iTunes to successfully add the item to your library and perform the gapless playback scan.
    If successful, continue adding songs to your library.
    If there is an issue with one of your files, you'll notice your issue reappear after you add it to the library. You should repeat these steps, being careful not to add the files that caused the issue.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • SQL Server Management Studio File Open dialog is very slow to change directories

    I am running Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio    10.0.2531.0 on Windows 7 Professional.
    I have an intermittent problem with the File Open dialog. Sometimes it works reasonably well, but often it takes a very long time (a few minutes) to change directory. While it is doing whatever it is doing, the dialog and all of SSMS becomes unresponsive
    - I can't even cancel the dialog. It sometimes changes the cursor to an hourglass and sometimes not.
    I do not have this problem with any other application.
    I can open File Open one time and have this delay for every single directory change or if I open the Look In dropdown then, after closing it I can open it again and it will work with normal delays.
    It is slow more often than it is normal.
    It makes accessing files very impractical.

    Hi,
    10.0.2531.0 is SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 (release April 2009)
    No guarantee this will fix your issue, but may be worth testing the latest Service Pack 3 (released October 2011) to see if that helps

  • Open dialog box photoshop on Mac

    Just switched to mac and I am very frustrated with photoshop. When I click OPEN I see very small thumbnails of my images (75 x 50 pixels)... they are so small and there are NO OPTIONS for making them bigger. This can't be correct. How do I make them larger?
    This also happens in inDesign when I place images ... please help!

    Pressing the space bar while in an Open dialog will bring up a QuickLook preview of the selected file - a little clunky, but it works. You can also use Default Folder X (http://www.stclairsoft.com/DefaultFolderX/) which adds previews below all your Open dialogs, as well as a bunch of other handy navigation features.

  • Mail has become very, very slow.  Do I have a provider problem or is there something I can do with my Mac to speed it up?

    Mail has become very, very slow.  Do I have a provider problem or is there something I can do with my Mac?

    Couple of steps. One is general housekeeping and the other is performance related.
    If you have an extremely large number of messages in your inbox(es) or sent categories, consider the ones that remain relevant and purge those that are not. Do this regularly. Choose the Mailbox > Erase Deleted Items > In All Accounts...
    Afterwards, you can start by rebuilding your Mailbox indexes within your individual mail accounts. For each Account in the left panel of Mail under Inbox, select it, and then from Mailbox menu, choose Rebuild (bottom of menu). When you are done, exit and restart Mail.
    Still slow?

  • AW6 is very very slow at opening PICT Docs

    I have noticed that AppleWorks 6 is very very slow at opening Apple PICT Documents. The memory of AW6 jumps up tp over 1GB and it takes several minutes (if at all) to open these files. Which happen to open fine in OS 9.
    Any idea what has happened to cause these files to not open or be very very slow? The original file is only 22KB.
    I have noticed some of my drawing programs (Canvas x) fails to open these as well. However, Canvas 5 (OS 9) works fine.
    I have a G4 with OS 10.4.9 and 986MB.
    Thanks

  • Diable "open dialog box" on right mouse click so I can use l mouse to advance to next slide and r mouse click to "go back."  How in PP 2010 for mac????

    I do presentations in PP10.  I am new to macair, and used to Windows.  HOW DO I DISABLE THE "OPEN DIALOG BOX ON RIGHT CLICK"?  I would like to use L mouse to advance slide, and R mouse to go back.  The default is to use R mouse to open dialog box.  I can disable this by unchecking the box in "advanced" on the PC.  How do I do it with the Mac????

    Hi Rod,
    As originally stated in my opening post, the SWF is to be inserted into an Articulate '13 slide (what I called an aggregator originally - I tried not to bring them up since I don't want the chatter about "There's your problem - using Articulate"! ).
    Recall that posting this published file to our LMS did not allow right-mouse click functionality as the flash player menu just gets in the way.
    If I insert the captivate 6 files into Articulate as a Web Object (referencing the entire folder with html, htm and assets, and then posted to our LMS, and it DOES allow RM click operations in both IE and FF (although no sound on the Captivate slide in FF). But this is not what we want to do as this introduces 2 navigation controls (the Captivate one and the Articulate Player).
    Why must anything be posted to a web server for this functionality to work?
    I am able to go into the Captivate 6's published folder, and launch the Captivate demonstration by simply double clicking on the index.html file and this works great in both FF and IE after changing the security settings for flash.
    Again - I can not believe I am the only one out there trying to use the right-mouse click feature to do a software simulation by embedding the Captivate SWF into an Articulate '13 project.

    Ramsudhakar,
    There are several items that could cause these slow down problems. Without knowing more about the way your environment is setup, I could cause more problems, by giving out performance tips. You would need to be more specific in your post.

    I suspect you may have a corrupt photo or image that is causing the sync to fail or quit. You might want to try removing all of your photos by deselecting them in iTunes then sync - and try adding them by each sub-folders until you are able to nail down which sub-folder of photos, that causes the sync to stop or gives you errors.

  • MAC OSX 10.9.5: What is this strange file format in the Open Dialog box?

    Hello all.
    I'd never really noticed this, but I saw a rather unusual file format in the Open dialog box and was wondering why it appeared as it did. It appears as follows from the file/open dialog box:
    To be completely transparent, I'd originally posted this image on my twitter feed to @illustrator. Since then I have been in communication with Scott but the advice has been to reinstall Illustrator. If this had happened on one machine, I'd be inclined to agree that this may do something, but since discovering this unusual format, i've since seen it on six macs running OS 10.9.5 and illustrator version 18.1.0 OR 18.1.1
    Can anyone else confirm that they see the same thing; or if there is a difference, what this format is meant to actually be. I suspect this is a bug but need confirmation by other users.
    Colin

    The error occurs on all machines I have tested. 5 of the machines have the suitcase fusion auto-activation plug-in, but one had no plug-ins at all. All software was installed literally "out of the box" from the creative cloud.
    UPDATE - tested 3 more machines in the office all running 18.1.1 on OSX 10.9.5 and they ALL do the same thing, all installed with the suitcase fusion auto-activation plug-in, but otherwise installed "out of the box" from creative cloud.
