Why no thumbnails when exporting files???

I'm running a mac pro with os10.4.9. Whenever I save or export a file (jpg--psd-- or tiff) in photoshop cs3-- I always get a thumbnail of the image as an icon.
But whenever I export using Lightroom v1.0-- I only get the generic icon for psd-- jpg-- or tiff--
but never a thumbnail-- which makes sorting very difficult-- since you have to open the image to see what it is. Any ideas what's going on.
In PS_CS3 preferences you have the choice for a thumbnail-- but I don't see that option in Lightroom.

I think that's just the way LR v1.0 behaves.
You're probably aware that if you open an OS 10.4.9 finder window in the Column mode (instead of the Icon or List mode), you can click on these generic icon files and see a Preview. That's it, for now, AFAIK.

Why no thumbnail when exporting psd or jpg?

When I export an image out of Lightroom the subsequent file has only the generic icon and no thumbnail. Is there a way to export with a thumbnail?

Do you have 'Show Icon Preview' turned on in Finder View Options, Cmd-J?

Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

No. This is NOT true. I've been battling with this for a couple hours.
I choose Export>Versions
choose
Subfolder Format: Project Name
no custom subfolder
Name Format: Current Version Name.
Aperture creates project folders for each image and names them Projects1, Projects2, Projects3 etc.
To be sure, I have no project named Projects
x
This particular Aperture library has 16 projects. you can see in the screen grab it's created more than 30 folders
If I uncheck the Subfolder, that is say NONE, I just get images and images and images, not in their project folders (of course, because I've said NONE, so why would it put them in project folders?)
I just want to export the entire library and have the versions placed in folders named by the projects from which they came.... ez enough, no?

Error when exporting file from LR5.2 - file created

After updating to LR5.2, I receive an error when exporting files to another disk drive. a file is created, but a warning appears "Unable to Export: "An internal error has occurred: Win32 API error 2 ("The system cannot find the file specified.") when calling ShellExecuteExW from AgWorkspace.shellExecute". I also have CC iunstalled for other applications, but originally installed LR5 as a standalone Adobe application. I tried removing the program and reinstalling through CC, with no change in this behavior.

Lightroom 4 - Slowdown when exporting files

Hi.
I'v been experiencing some slowdown on my PC when exporting files from LR4. No matter the size, or if it's .jpg or .TIFF... it always gives me some frezzes (mouse etc)
I have a high end machine, and i don't think that's the problem....
Does anyone have a similar problem or a solution?
CPU
Motherboard
Graphics
RAM
Phenom II X6 1055T @4.0ghz
ASUS Crosshair FORMULA IV
CrossFire ATI RADEON 6850 940/1150
8GB DDR3 CORSAIR VENGANCE @1525mhz
Hard Drive
OS
Monitor
Samsung 500GB / Seagate 500GB / Seagate 1TB
Windows 7 ULTIMATE x64
Dell U2410 IPS
Lastest ATI driver...

None either... CPU always at 0% before exporting.
But i think i found the problem, it's related to my HDD. I was reading some articles, and decided to use my HDD as AHCI instead of IDE.
I had to modify some regs to install the drivers, but after that the slowdown where almost inexistent...
Now i need to know where the problem is, if it's with HDD or motherboard..
Thanks.

Lightroom looses EXIF Thumbnail when exporting

I already have deselected "Minimum Metadata", but Lightroom 1.3 as well as Lightroom 2 Beta doesn't embed an exif thumbnail when exporting.
Is there any trick to do that? Other Data like camera model or shutter speed isn't affected, and the original image imported into lightroom had an exif thumb.
Thanks for reading

Why are my prints shrinking when exporting files from NEF to Tiff despite not ticking the re-size box!

When I export/convert my Nikon D7000 based raw files to Tiff files using Lightroom, in preparation for printing, the document size shrinks but the file size increases(see top image below)! This is despite not ticking the 'Resize to Fit' box on the export pop up.I know the file size will increase going from a raw to a Tiff file but I don't understand why this happens when the print size shrinks. This is even more puzzling if I export the same file as a raw file (+its related .xmp file) to another folder then save the file in Elements 9 as a Tiff folder since the size stays as it shoiuld be (see middle image below) I think it must be something to do with the way I am exporting directly to a Tiff format as if I export it as a .dng it still retains its size (see bottom image)
Tiff image exported from Lightroom as a Tiff file then just viewed in Elements 9
Raw file exported from Lightroom as a NEF raw file (with XMP) file then just saved as a Tiff in Elements 9
NEF raw image converted to .dng file through Lightroom & viewed in CS2

Sorry, I think I've obviously confused the issue by not comparing like with like so here are two versions of the exactly the same image, one a Tiff and one a dng. Both images are 6016 x 4016 pixels, 300 pixels per cm and were simply exported from Lightroom. If I were to simply print them without resizing, one image would be significantly larger than the other. Why does this happen is what I really want to know? If I was to resize the smaller version of the image to be the same size as the larger one, would there be any loss of detail in the print? I would expect there to be as CS2 would create data to fill in the gaps resulting in a file that was 859.2M in size.

LR 4 on Windows 8 - Cannot create preview thumbnail when exporting?

I thought I had this figured out but it appears to occur somewhat randomly. Since upgrading to Windows 8 when I export files that I have imported from Canon raw .CR2 for some files it gives an error that "the file could not be written" and lists the original source .CR2 file name. It does not do it everytime but once it happens it happens everytime for that file. When exporting 10 JPG files for example only 3 of them may have this issue. The file still exports and creates the JPG file and the only issue with the exported file appears to be that it did not create the preview thumbnail.
I have tried importing the files into new catalogs, writing to different folders etc but it still happens. Any ideas?

Ok, after lots of attempts to recreate I can do it like this:
Export as JPG to hard drive and select 'limit file size' option and give any size smaller than the full 100% quality JPG would normally create. Using any other options to limit file size such as quality < 100 or resize long edge to 1024 completes successfully.
Can someone else confirm this on Windows 8 with LR 4.2, it only takes a single file?

When exporting files to web pages Aperture keeping losing files, so for instance, if I choose to export 600 images to a new web page, it might do 524 images but not the full 600. I've tried resetting Aperture, it's the latest version etc etc. Help please!

If anyone can help me with this I would be seriously grateful.
When exporting mutliple files to web pages Aperture keeping losing files, so for instance, if I choose to export 600 images to a new web page, it might make 524 pages but not the full 600. I've tried resetting Aperture and its persmission and am using the latest version of 3.
I have 3600 images which I need to upload as sublfolders, each with their own URL and at the moment Aperture is dropping of anything from 1 to 90 images.
This is critical as people need to see each and every on of these images online. So if a file has 600 photos in it, Aperture should make a URL with 600 full image pages. And this is what it's not doing. On small files, say 30 or so it seems to work well, it's when it gets to more than that the problem starts.
I've used Aperture in the past under previous versions and not had this problem.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
Bob.

Hi Jack,
Thanks for responding (as it seems as though no one else has been able to provide any insight as of yet)! Not sure if you saw my recent post, but the version of Aperture on the 2008 MacBook has been upgraded to 3.1.2 (not sure how; I bought it in 2009, but only have OS X 10.5.8... which apparently can't house 3.1.2 of Aperture, but hey, like many other anomalies i'm encountering, I'm no longer surprised!). I am unable to upgrade it any further, as it warns me that my OS X does not fit the requirements. I exported the projects as libraries; however, like I posted before, apparently these are from too old of a version for the new Aperture (3.3.1) to handle and import.
It's getting to the point where I'd almost pay to upgrade the OS X on my previous MacBook (10.5.8) to something newer in order to THEN update Aperture to a newer version; however, my previous MacBook simply cannot handle this (the specs are awful -- hence my decision to save up and upgrade to the newest MBP with Retina).
I've spent hours upon hours transferring files, libraries as projects, previews, versions, even masters (though, apparently some of them aren't accessible?) with no luck. I've rebuilt the library and reprocessed everything. And this is all after having to return one MBP already since Aperture 3.3.1 is glitch-y as it is, and froze everything for having a "managed library". So, now that I know that I have to deal with a referenced library in Aperture... I just need to actually transfer my previous library to my new one (hopefully WITH adjustments since these are years worth of photos and work).
Again, any help is appreciated. I've lost enough sleep, time, and vision health over this at this point.
Also, I know Migration Assistant is an option, I was told that it wouldn't work properly anyway because of the different operating systems, and the potential for problems.

Why can I not export files as epub in Pages '09 4.0.3 Lion?

I was wondering why there is no option to export files as an epub format in Pages '09. Any ideas?

You need at least Pages ´09 v. 4.0.4, If you don't want Auto Save in Pages stay away from 4.1.
This page will let you choose which update to download (look at the right column)

Illustrator CS6 : Some layers are missing when exporting files

Hello all,
I'm trying to export my project for use in Adobe Director 11, and I'm encountering a problem with the export feature that I believe to be a legit bug, and seeing from the amount of threads related with my problem, I believe some other people have encountered it too. I provided some pics for an easier explanation.
So.. firstly, the image below is the screenshot of my project in AI, combination of paths, mask and pictures.
Next I'm trying to export it to PNG without artboard & use transparent background. Notice that the export preview still shows the image that I expect as the export result.
Below is the exported image.
As you can see, some part of the project is 'missing' in the exported files. The problem still occurred no matter I exported it to png, jpg, even psd. Changing the export resolution and anti-aliasing setting doesn't help.
I've encountered the same problem with different project for at least 5 times in like the last 8 months, and I find that each time I encountered the problem, it can only be temporary fixed by some specific procedures and sometimes each problem won't work with the same workaround. For example, one time I can properly export the project after I copy & paste the 'missing' layers and delete the original layers, in other time I have to select the 'missing' layers, move it a little and then move them back to its first location in order to export it properly. I also find that copying the entire layer that I want to export to a new document works a few times. I can't remember some other solutions I have tried that works, but if these solutions doesn't work anymore, I have to find another and it's pretty confusing since it happen to be 'random'.
Since I believe that this happen to be a program bug, I would love if one of those Adobe guy read this post and direct the problem directly to the AI team or something so it can be fixed in the next updates. Until then, anyone ever experienced the problem? What did you guys do to 'fix' the problem?
Many thanks for people who help me here.
P.S. As I'm writing the last part, exporting my current project to PNG with transparent background seems to be working properly after I tried to export to PNG with white as the background color, I dunno why, but it works now. I still want to know other workarounds to 'fix' the problem though, that could be helpful for other people out there.

The first thing I was going to ask was if you saved as PDF earlier, but then I noticed you specifically said not in your first post. I have lost two layered high res images in the last couple of months due to getting mixed up after exporting to PDF for print. I still don't know how it happened, but I have to assume user error.
I also note you are using CS6 which has the JDI features, so saving as a JPG would not have flaterened the layers. I almost never use TIFF as it feels better to use PSD as it is the native format, and it limits the opertunity to mess up. So I am not being very helpful. If you absolutely didn't save out as JPG or PFD or similar, then you have to start thinking bug, but I have never heard of this happening outside of user error.
[EDIT] Whoops. Overlap. I called for my breakfast half way through typing my answer. Glad you got it fixed

InDesign CS5 freezes when exporting file as PDF

InDesign CS5 (7.0.4) run on iMac (OS 10.7.5).
I find that when exporting a document as PDF InDesign suddenly and randomly freezes at some point during the export process.
The only option is to force quit InDesign.
On relaunch InDesign has forgotten all the presets I had saved (eg Document Preset, Preflight Profile).
This happens fairly frequently but I cannot find a pattern to it or an obvious cause.
Thanks in advance or any help anyone can offer!!

Audio problems when exporting files from Premiere Pro CS5

I try to post in English.
I have audio problems in Premiere Pro CS5 when exporting a film.
I cut an interview. The sound seems not to be synchronized when exporting a file. It doesn´t matter what file format I export. On cutting points the sound is different to the sound I hear in premiere. In premiere the audio sounds very good but in exported file I hear cracks on cutting points.
When I reimport the audio file an put it in the timeline the synch point is correct but the interview differs about 2 frames to the original audio in premiere.
The material was filmed on Sony ex3. The files are XDCam HD. I have updated the production suite.
Thanks for answers
Frieder

Also, make sure that you check the box marked "Export Audio" if you want a MP4 extension.

Eliminate flicker when exporting file with a matte

I have a short FCP7 sequence with a moving garbage matte. It looks fine when I play it in the timeline, but when exported to QuickTime there's now a flickering on the matte with each frame.
What do I change in the settings so it looks the same in QuickTime as it does in FCP?

More info Please:
• Sequence settings - (command-0)
• Footage properties - (select a clip, press command-9)
• Export settings
