View preview files

How do I access all of my "Preview" files saved from my Mac Computer to the icloud on my ipad and iphone?  Is there an app?  The only way to find my files on my ipad or iphone is to go to the preferences and source out the files in my icloud storage.  I would like to access my file more easily using my devices.  Please advice, i find that this is quite an issue with many customers.

No, there is no iOS app at the moment, so you could not open the files on your iPhone and iPad. (I would suggest to use pages instead.)

  • View/preview giant .psb files

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone knew of a good way or an alternative browser maybe to view/preview giant sized .psb files?
    I am now working on files from 5 - 20 GB each, 30 - 50,000 pixels, and am stuck using Bridge to go thru them, which takes forever to create thumbnails, and is often unreliable, as every now and then Bridge will just refuse to create a thumbnail for a certain image or 2 and drives me crazy.
    Any suggestions? Am currently using CS3.
    Yes I know this is an older version, I just wish there was a more efficient way to preview large files. PS obviously generates a flattened image preview every time u save, but the previews Bridge uses are fairly low res to my eye, yet it still takes ridiculously long to load each one, which I dont understand if during the save that preview image should be 'in' the file anyway.
    There's got to be a better way to work with giant files.
    Any tricks you power users know maybe?
    thanks!

    Not as far as I know, Noel.  If I recall correctly, a single installer runs, without offering any options.
    I have both the Ardfry codec and the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack installed.  I have yet to figure out how to tell which one of the two PSD codecs is in play when I am viewing PSD previews, nor how to specify which of the two codecs I want the system to use.  I am not experiencing any problems with the two PSD codecs installed though, so they appear to play nicely together.
    On a side note, Ardfry provides a free plug-in for Directory Opus which adds support for their codec, enabling viewing and thumbnail generation of PSD/PSB within that excellent file explorer.

  • Viewing the file extension in the tphoto humbnails preview

    The file names have the file extensions cut off. Is it possible to view the file with the extension. I need to know if I'm looking at a .jpg or a .nef file (raw file) I tried the preferences and there are choices but none show the extension. I did notice that if your over an image a pop up window appears that shows the entire file name with extension....but I need it on the photo thumbnail. Thanks!

    If I had more time I would give you the short answer but you can find out how to do this and much more in an article that I wrote here:

  • Why do i not have permission to view a file on my mac?

    Why do i not have permission to view a file on my mac?

    Back up all data. Quit Preview if it's running.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following items, if they exist:
    Caches/com.apple.Preview
    Containers/com.apple.Preview
    Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Preview.SandboxedPersistentURLs.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Saved Application State/com.apple.Preview.savedState
    Launch the application and test.

  • Can I slim down the size of the Aperture Library by moving the Preview files elsewhere?

    Hi all,
    I have an Aperture library of almost 20,000 photos, dating back to around 2007. Almost all the master images are stored on an external drive (backed up of course), with only my recent and 'in progress' masters being stored in the library itself. Previously I have had my library split up into one library for each year, with the older years libraries being stored on the external drive where the masters are, in order to keep the size of my 'current' library down. So my current library, stored on my internal SSD, contained only photos from this year and last year, and only a few of the masters for these images. Confusing? Sorry!
    Now, I recently decided to consolidate the libraries into one huge library, because it was annoying to have to switch between libraries to find older photos when I wanted them. I did this, leaving all but the recent masters on the external drives (referenced). I thought that the size of the main library would remain reasonably sized, since there were no extra masters being moved into it. However, the library has grown massively - up to over 70GB, which is huge when you consider it's on a 128GB SSD which is also my startup drive.
    I'm pretty certain the reason for the huge size increase is that the Previews for all the older images are stored in the Library file, rather than anywhere else. This makes sense - they are previews, they're supposed to be able to be viewed with the external drives disconnected. So my question is this. Am I able to change the location of the preview files to be on my OTHER internal hard drive (non-SSD, much larger), so that they're still available without the external drives, but are not cluttering up my startup drive. And, if not, what should I do!?
    Thanks a lot

    Glad it worked, but permit, if you will, some observations:
    -- Bloated Previews are a known Aperture bug, which came and went  within a few updates in Aperture 3. Getting them back to the proper size is simply a elegant step to take.
    -- A Preview set to your largest screen size and a quality of 6-8 should be all but indistinguishable from the Master at 72-100 dpi screen image. (Not print resolution.) I REALLY doubt you are going to loose any quality.
    -- While using a symlink to stick the Previews on a HD is clever, it may also defeat the whole purpose of using your SSD. Previews are read a lot and are, I suspect, used for all adjustments at less than full resolution. (N.B. I could be VERY wrong on this.) Thus, depending on the amount of RAM on your Mac, you could end up reading and rereading your Previews over a slower link and doing this a lot. You own use will quickly determine if this is an issue or not.
    I have blathered on, at length, about what I think matters for size and speed here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17959625#17959625. Some of this may be of use.
    I went through a lot of these issues when I tried to fit everything on a 128 GB SSD, so I know some of the issues you are facing. As I noted before, you really only need a Library (minus most Masters) of about 30 GB and that is with large, high quality Previews.
    I actually took the SSD out and stuck it in an ancient MacBookPro (in preparation for a trip to Blighty this summer) and have not noticed a huge drop in Aperture speed. (I do miss the speed of applications launch, restart, however.) One thing that I did find that made a small, but nice difference, was keeping all of the Masters on a separate, dedicated drive. Once defragged, etc. that was very fast. Don't know if you could achieve the same results by partitioning a larger drive, but it might well be fun to find out.

  • Cannot view PDF files within Safari 6.0.1

    I have lost the ability to view PDF files within the safari web browser.  When I press on a link to a PDF file a blank/black screen will appear.  If I right click on the page I have the ability to Save the PDF file and then I can open it in preview. 
    I also have AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin installed in ~Library/Internet Plug ins/ ... folder. 
    I have tried deleting these files and restarting Safari but nothing seems to be working. I have tried installing the PDF Browser plugin form Schubert to no avail
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how can I get the ability to view PDF files in Safari using Moutain Lios OSX?

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Viewing PDF files in Firefox on Intel Mac

    Before moving to my MacBook Pro, I used Schubert-IT's PDF Plugin to view pdf files directly in my browser. That plugin is not intel-friendly, though, and Adobe doesn't let mac users utilize reader within their browser, so does anyone know of another program to view pdf files directly in a browser, without having to open preview separately?

    Adobe Reader and its plug-in are PowerPC code, so the plug-in will only execute in a PowerPC application. Since Firefox is now Universal, you have to tell the system to run it under Rosetta in order for it to be able to execute PowerPC plug-ins. To do this, first quit Firefox, then find the its icon in the Finder, issue the Get Info command (or Command-I) and select the "Open using Rosetta" command. Now relaunch. It should be able to run PowerPC plug-ins (and only PowerPC plug-ins) in this mode. It will also take more RAM and run slower.

  • Add a button to activate or not preview file in the folder

    Is there a way to do this thing?
    I'd like to add a button at the top of the finder windows to quickly able or disable preview files in the specific folder.
    Thanks
    Massimiliano

    Open a Finder window, select View->Customize Toolbar, and add QuickLook button to the toolbar. The only other way is to invoke CMD+J and turn off or on icon preview.

  • Saving a book as a PDF file in 5.04 becomes a preview file

    In iphoto 4 i would create lovely books then save as a PDF file which saved as an Acrobat Reader file and opened up just like a book. when i save as a pdf i am getting a preview file
    not what i want! how do i get the acrobat reader back?? anyone????

    Slideshow can be saved as QT movies but they would be way to big to email. If you can get them to a Windows machine it can view them if they have Quicktime for Windows installed. It's a free download from apple.
    There's two ways to backup your library. The first is to save the entire iPhoto Library folder intact. Obviously that will keep all of your data intact, meta, iPhoto organizational, etc. It has to be small enough to be saved to a CD or DVD disk.
    The other way is to burn to disk from within iPhoto portions of the iPhoto library, by albums or rolls, to disk. This will preserve any keywords, comments, and other organizational information that is in iPhoto.

  • Can Prelude use the MXF preview files instead of the full size files?

    It takes forever to load and view my full size MXF files from an XDCamHD disk. (It can also cause Prelude to crash)  It seems like it would be very helpful to be able to view the tiny preview files contained in the "Sub" folder.  You could quickly review your media, decide which files to transfer and then do so with the originals.  Has anyone been able to see those files in the Prelude Ingest window?  I only see the file icon, not the video media.
    I had been using the Sony XDCam Transfer App with Final Cut, but am now trying to create a better workflow all inside Adobe software.

    Hi AEDave -
    Thanks for your post.
    Wanted to share that we have been working on the performance with the XDCAM optical disc thumbnail load times (as well as other performance enhancements for this format). We are seeing a nice improvement on that front in our recent testing. And as Wes mentioned above we are also looking into how to best handle the proxy files the camera generates as well. Just wanted you to know we have improvements in the works for your workflow!
    Thanks -

  • Viewing AI file in ID as cmyk when the file is rgb. Why?

    I've upgraded from CS5 to CS6 and this is the first time I'll have used Illustrator. I've worked on an rgb file that I downloaded from iStock. I saved it as an rgb file but before I saved the file, I viewed the vector image in cmyk mode just to see what it would look like. I closed the file and opened my document in ID that I wanted to place my AI file into. When I placed it into the ID document, it imported as a cmyk file. I wouldn't have known what had happened if I hadn't viewed it as a cmyk file when I had saved it in Illustrator. I've never experienced this before so am curious as to why this is happening. I'm working in OS10.8.2 on a Mac Pro tower (whether this makes any difference or not, I don't know, but I've been asked these questions before when coming to the forums.) I've seen on other posts this is a color management glitch in CS6. Has there been a fix? Or is there some other bug?

    How do you 'view' the file? A SWF file is meant to be launched from its companion HTML file (name.htm) which will call the JS and CSS files and then launch the SWF.
    Do you see the playbar when you Preview in Browser (F12)? Can you check version number: 8.0.1.242 is the present version of 8.

  • Preview  files

    Hi. A couple of things with previews.
    Is it normal to have a 1 folder with 1 file in it for every preview in the preview directory ? If you delete images does the preview file and folder get removed also. I seem to have more preview folders than images. Some of the preview folders are empty.
    Also I notice that when I go to folders in Library and select all pictures then scroll down the list the thumbnails seem to be blurred at first and the 3 little white dots appear as if Lightroom is re-rendering the images.
    I thought that once it did them the first time it would not do them again unless the image changed.
    As a new user moving from Elements 4 I am trying to get a grasp of how Lightroom is organized so any info much appreciated.
    OS is Windows with SP2.

    "And, the previews are cached, but you'll still see the three dots for a moment as you scroll, but if they're cached they should all go away a whole screen at a time. "
    This constant rendering of thumbnails and previews is the strangest thing about LR. I have a pretty fast computer running XP Pro SP2, 3ghz dual core with 4GB fast RAM, great video card, Matrox P650 128mb and fast SATA 10,000rpm hard drives, optimized in every way recommended by Adobe and it will not stop rendering thumbnails or previews. I render standard size previews (1680) upon import and render 1:1 previews after import.
    I only have about 11k images in my library, mixed JPG and Canon RAW, and I simply cannot browse my images with anything like reasonable speed. LR is the slowest image viewer I have ever tried. Free stuff like Picasa is way faster and so is cheap stuff like ACDC. I mean way, way faster.
    If I show LR a big group of pictures, say 2-3,000 images, it slowly renders the thumbnails as I scroll down screen by screen. The white dots appear for a whole screen, then disappear one by one, not a whole screen at a time. Finally, after the white dots disappear the thumbnail is sharp. If I scroll down say 5 screens of images, then reverse direction, the thumbnails re-render as I go back up the list of files! The 3 white dots reappear even though those thumbnails just rendered 15 seconds before! What in the world is going on? If I try to browse images in Fit or Fill or 1:1 size, the performance is even slower.
    Since my computer flies through images, thumbnail and preview, with every other photo program I have tried, I have to think that LR is the problem.

  • Preview files in iphoto

    Hello,
    I'm trying to free up space on my HD.  I'm using an application called Space Gremlin and it's showing huge numbers of "preview files" in iPhoto.  We have an extensive collection of pictures in the iPhoto library...are these previews needed or can they be deleted? 

    Robert
    Sorry to hear of your problems.
    Right now I would concentrate on getting the pics back, and figure out the iPhoto part later.
    Select one of the pics in the Finder and try change the file suffix: if it's pic.jpg, then try pic.JPG or .jpeg and see if that helps.
    Try open the pics with Graphic Converter, which seems to be less fussy about things. You can download it here: http://www.lemkesoft.com/
    BackUp (if this is the Apple App we're talking about) creates a pkg file. Can you see the one you restored from? Right click on it, and choose 'Show Package Files. Inside you'll find a .dmg file. This contains the actual files. Mount the dmg and see if you can find the files inside it. Can you view them in Preview?
    Regards
