Why does Photoshop not show PSD file image tile in 'Open File' when Facebook can?

When selecting a PSD file in Photoshop the image tile just says "PSD" so visually you cannot select it knowing which version it is.  Why can't Photoshop show the image tile like Facebook can instead of having to use Bridge?  Bridge is a huge memory hog and to have to jump back and forth is a pain.  If I choose a file to upload to Facebook, I can see the standard file icons and also the PSD versions.
Any ideas or should this be a request in the next update?

That's happened a more than a couple of times where I spend 20 minutes carefully preparing a post and then find out some else got it.
Anyway, psd icons in the Explorer is a sure sign of the Windows OS. They could work with Adobe to render thumbnails, but seems something I'm not privy to in their internal policies prevents that.
Chris Cox did offer some insights. The OS vendors expect their rules to be followed, so if the OS does not respond properly, it's not Adobe's job to work around that. I do wonder how third party codec vendors do it. I'll have to ask.
Btw, John Ellis has a quicklook plugin for the Mac that renders PSB thumbnails should you be interested.

  • Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

  • Want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through a long procedure each time

    I want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through the long tedious procedure each time I install firefox. It is something that should be in the options tab , and I want to know why it isn't. I am totally frustrated with firefox and getting ready to switch.

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

  • When i go into finder   click on pictures why dose it not show all photos just lets me open iphoto

    when i go into finder   click on pictures why dose it not show all photos just lets me open iphoto 

    Ralph9430 offers a good suggestion.  But you may need to do this before taking his advice:
    Check in iPhoto's Preferences (which you can open from the iPhoto menu).  Look in General, and make sure "Connecting Camera Opens" is set to "Image Capture").
    If it is set to "iPhoto", you won't be able to get to Image Capture easily.

  • Why does is not show the radio buttons

    I want to display the buttons in a row then radio button in a row under the button and then log scroll pane under the radio buttons. This is my code:
            //Add the buttons and the log to this panel.
            add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.PAGE_START);
            add(radioPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
            add(logScrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);When i run it it display the buttons and the logsrollpane. Why does it not display the radio buttons?

    Thanks guys.
    This is my problem. We have a big system that produce lots of log files and the software testers have to manually have to go through the logs file and look for a certain XML tags in the log file.
    What I want to do is help the software testers my developing a small tool that will allow them to open a log file and then click on a radio button corresponding to a xml tags that they are looking for and automatically highlight the tags in the file in yellow color .
    I am not sure how feasible this is and I am stuck.
    This is what I have done so far.
    Can you please guys help me go forward.

  • The firefox icon shows on my desk top and in my task bar, but why does it NOT show in my list of Program files?

    My Firefox icons are showing and usable from the desktop and from the task bar; however, the Mozilla Firefox does not show in my list of program files. Why doesn't it show?

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • I own iLife '11, why does it not show as installed?

    I have iLife '11 loaded on my computer as well as iWork '09.  Why don't they show up as installed from the app store?

    Because they were purchased as a the suite of software, not as individual components that are availablw from the App Store.
    The updates for your iLife and iWork software are available from your Apple menu / Software Update.
    If you had purchased the components, the updates would be available from the App Store.

  • Exchange 2013 Delivery Reports - Why does it not show forwarded mail?

    We just migrated from 2010 to 2013 and all seems to be working well... We started using EOP at the same time with only a few hiccups.  Our Get-MessageTrackingLog command shows all of our email that was delivered or failed, etc... but when I try to run
    "Mail Flow -> Delivery reports", it forces me to select a mailbox and I leave the other fields empty - and it only shows emails that come directly to me.  The problem is, I have half a dozen email accounts that are set to forward their email
    to my exchange account.  None of those emails show up with the delivery reports method - but they DO show up via the powershell get-messagetrackinglog command...
    With EOP I can see all the emails if I use "Mail Flow -> Message Trace"... why does it work with EOP, but on our local box - it's nerfed to just emails who specify my direct exchange address?

    Hi,
    I have tested to use Delivery Reports to search my manually forward messages in my Exchange 2013 CU1 environment. And the forward messages can be searched and listed in the Search results.
    Please make sure the users who forwarded emails to you are in your organization and they are sending
     messages by using the Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Web App email clients. Because Delivery Reports doesn’t track messages send from POP or IMAP email clients. For more information about Delivery Reports, please refer to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150554(v=exchg.150).aspx
    Additionally, I also tested auto-forward scenario:
    User1 is configured to auto-forward messages to User2 in Exchange side(for details, please click
    here), when User3 sends a message to User1, the message is forwarded to User2 automatically. If so, when we use Delivery Report to search this forward message for User2, we
    need to use Search for messages received from User3 instead of User1 to get this forwarded message.
    Thanks,

  • Why does it not show all the pictures when i open myspace

    Hello,
    I have apple mac pro desktop. When i open some profile on www.myspace.com, does my computer not show all pictures on that profile site. Can some one tell me if i need to download some software or plugin to see all pictures on the pages. I use safari beta.

    Hello deniz aya,
    Welcome to Apple discussions..
    No, you do not need additional software to view the pic, myspace is just not very mac friendly, as they say ( long time coming) they are working on it.
    Myspace pages can be a nightmare, a couple of my friends pages for instance
    have been known to crash my Safari beta & when on version S 2.
    Try using Firefox as well, the "other" browser they recommend other then Safari
    for Mac users, albeit they do not say which version of Safari to use.
    Check pages including the one you have an issue viewing the pics on with the http://validator.w3.org/ to get an idea of how poorly coded they are.
    Eme '~[ ) 
    I just checked my page which has not half the items that other pages use & it Failed validation, 91 Errors, one of my friends pages failed with 490 odd........
    Of course I presume you have flash, as mentioned by QuickTimeKirk.
    To check, in Safari under the Help menu, click on -> Installed plug-ins.
    and check for Flash player.
    Under Safari menu, Safari's preferences, Security tab- Web Content: you have Enable Plug-ins checked correct?

  • Why does itunes not show the ipad in devices?

    Plug the iPad on itunes-windows and it does not show as device. cannot syncronize. The iPad was set up automatically and it is signed to a wifi

    Here's a few things you can try:
    - If you haven't tried disabling your anti virus software and turning off the Firewall, do that then restart your PC and  the iPad.
    - Try another cable to make sure it's that that
    - Try connecting to another computer to verify that your computer is not the issue
    - If none of these work then your iPad might need service. Take it to your nearest Apple Store

  • Why does photoshop cs6 show two camera raw plugins?

    I'm running CS6 on a Mac Pro 1,1 version 10.6.8. I installed the most recent update from adobe (8.4). I did the full install and apparently it's only meant for version 10.7 and higher, but my CS6 still works. I did remove that camera raw file and installed the recommended one (ACR V 8.3.0.141). The program is slower now. When I click on 'About Plug in' it lists 2 'Camera Raw' folders. (there is only one camera raw plug in within the 'File Formats' folder, I did remove the 8.4 version) When I click on the first one it pops up an error message: Could not complete the Camera Raw command because the file was not found. I also am now getting this message occasionally when trying to open jpg files. When I click on the second Camera Raw it pops up the plug in Version 8.3.0.141. Is there any way of un-installing that update or the first version of the plug in?

    Please file an Adobe (not Apple) crash report the next time it crashes and send me the email address you used in the crash report. That way we get all the important information we need to help figure this out.

  • Why does safari not show my websites SVG images and every other browser it is fine ?

    I am a web developer and the way apple has developed there safari is driving everyone mad
    SVG images will work on every other web browser but wont show up in safari
    it is a html website and need to sort this issue out asap have anyone else had the same issue with safari

    I wanted to make it clear that I am not talking about the publically accessible Amazon Store but the Amazon Web Store which is used for those who have an online shop or set up e-commerce.
    The fact that Amazon is a large company does not protect it from making a crappy site. If its e-commerce pages don't work in Safari, that's laziness on the part of their web developers, pure and simple. There's no reason for a modern web site to fail to work in any standards-compliant web browser. This is something you'll need to address with Amazon.

  • When I insert a screen shot or image into the body of an email (not an attachment), why does it not show up after being sent? It works fine in other browsers.

  • Why does LR3 not produce sRGB compatible images?

    An image that I fine-tuned in the Develop module will look flatter  (less-saturated) when exported as a JPG and viewed in a browser, if the  browser is not colour-managed. This happens despite the fact that the image is exported using the sRGB colour space.
    If I view the JPG image with a colour-managed browser (Firefox with a colour-plugin) then it looks exactly like in the Develop module.
    Why is that? If I select the "sRGB" colour space, I expect LR to not add a colour profile at all and create output that will look identical in colour-managed and non-colour managed browers. I certainly don't expect the output to look flat in comparison to what I fine-tune in the develop module. I selected "Only images with ICC tags." in the Firefox colour managment plugin and still it renders LR images differently than non-managed browers.
    This is not an issue of being fooled by black backgrounds or something like that. Please see the attached screenshot showing a) Firefox colour -managed rendering, b) IE non-colour-managed rendering, and c) LR Develop module view. The effect is much more visible when the images are viewed large but you can still see the differences in hue and saturation of the greens and reds in the below screenshot between the colour-managed renderings (Firefox and LR -> left & right) and non-managed (IE in the middle). Other non-managed applications show the same rendering as IE.
    The free Picasa application manages to procude output that looks identical in all browsers and the Picasa "Develop" view. Please see the second attached screenshot which shows the same browsers in the same order. (The images look different to the images in the first screenshot because I didn't spend a lot of time in Picasa to do fine-tuning and it doesn't allow the same control anyhow.)
    I'm using LR3.2 on Windows XP.
    I noticed a difference between LR Develop module rendering and viewing on the web (or other non-colour-managed applications) before but always put it down to a "black background" illusion.
    I find it unacceptable that I cannot see what I'll get with an sRGB target space within LR unless the application used for viewing is colour-managed. Too many people out there don't use colour-managed applications and the Picasa example shows that it is possible to have a WYSIWYG approach.

    The fact that the image is in sRGB, or any other space for that matter, does not mean it should look in a certain expected way in a non-managed viewer/browser.
    The idea of sRGB is to be the standard colour space.  HP and Microsoft proposed sRGB to achieve the same effect that you get by transforming a media's colour space to the output space without the use of explicit ICC profiles. I understand that nowadays if something isn't explicitly colour-managed it implicitly uses the sRGB colour space. While uncalibrated monitors will not exactly comply (e.g., not have exactly a gamma value of 2.2) they are typically quite close. Are they not?
    Also, if I calibrate my monitor (which I have), isn't the idea that if I feed it with an sRGB image in a non-colour managed application that the image will appear exactly as intended? I thought that a non-colour managed application simply ignores the media's colour space (assuming it is sRGB) but that the OS always uses the monitor profile (be it a standard sRGB one or a profile that resulted from a calibration). As a matter of fact, the latter must be the case because images in non-colour managed applications look differently depending on whether I have the calibration profile for my monitor active or not.
    A non-color managed browser, like Internet explorer, takes the source color assuming it's sRGB (beit with an embedded profile or not) and does not convert to your monitor's color space, assuming all monitors' spaces are sRGB.
    I agree regarding the assumption about the source colour space being sRGB but I'm convinced that the OS always converts into the monitor's colour space. That's what the .icm profiles are for. Are you saying that they are only used for colour-managed applications? Why do I then see a change in Windows XP's colours at the very moment the OS gets around making the colour profile active (during start up)? This overall change in display characteristics also influences non-colour managed applications.
    Bottom line: use color managed software, do no trust or expect anything from non-color-managed software.
    I general I agree with you but I thought the idea of sRGB was to make things work in the absence of explicit colour spaces. I cannot believe that calibrating my monitor (providing the OS with an individual profile of my monitor's colour space) only is supposed to make a difference for colour-managed applications. According to my understanding and my experience, the OS always applies the default .icm colour profile.
    How do you explain that the Picasa output looks the same in Firexfox and IE? Are you saying that the absence of any colour space information in the Picasa output stops the OS from transforming from sRGB into the monitor's colour space? Wouldn't that be a stupid thing to do? Why not always transform into the monitor's colour space?
    Have a look at bullet "4." of "Browsing Scenarios" in "A Standard Default Color Space for the Internet - sRGB":
    4. Image in sRGB, and system has a monitor/output device ICC profile
    In this scenario, the image has been run through a transform that consists of the input device ICC profile, and the sRGB ICC profile, or it was created using devices that conform to sRGB. Because the system has an ICC profile for the output device, the image can be converted to the output device's color space and imaged. The resulting image will be consistent across devices, and will be very close to the original in appearance.
    Clearly there is a difference between LR's output and Picasa's output in terms of triggering a colour space transformation. Since I'm assuming that the transformation into the monitor's colour space always takes place, I came to the conclusion that LR's output is not quite sRGB causing colour-managed applications to perform a media colour space transformation.
    To summarise: You are assuming that "non-colour-managed" means a) ignoring the media's colour space and b) ignoring the output device colour space. I'm assuming that "non-colour-managed" only means a) ignoring the media's colour space but that the OS always respects any present output device colour space profile.
    I admit that I'm not an expert in these matters but I hope you see my points. Not always using the monitor profile would just be terribly daft and defy the purpose of calibration for all but the colour-managed applications. Further clarification would be much appreciated.
