OS X :: 10.5.6 Icon Preview View Mode - No Thumbnail Images?

Dec 19, 2008

After upgrading to 10.5.6, the vast majority of my recently created, saved, or altered image files (JPEGs and PNGs, mostly) no longer feature a thumbnail preview image while in icon preview view mode. Rather, they merely display generic icons indicating what kind of file they are.

This is unbelievably frustrating. Is anyone else experiencing this?

EDIT: It effects old (read: not recently created, saved, or altered) image files as well. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which image files are affected; one folder will display thumbnails, the next will be full of generic icons.

PS, this is not an iPhoto issue. All my iPhoto images have thumbnails, as per usual. This issue concerns image files in folders and on the desktop.

Final Cut Pro X :: Filmstrip View Has Projects With Black Thumbnail Images

Sep 3, 2014

I have a lot of projects, I go to browser filmstrip view -- some projects have thumbnail images as a reference, others just black. 

Is there a way to set the thumbnail/poster image for individual projects filmstrips? Or a way to reset the project somehow so that it grabs an image from a project's video and uses that as a reference poster frame? 

It's nice having visual cues of a projects content in the browser window and it's driving me crazy that 1/2 of my project's show up as black.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: When Will Finder Show A Thumbnail Or Preview Of The Raw File Images From The Canon 5d Mark Iii

May 23, 2012

I am wondering if anyone has an update on when finder will show a thumbnail for the raw files from the Canon 5d mark III? I've done all the updates possible and nothing has changed, I can't do a quick preview either, it just shows the extension image, not the actual image taken. (The symbol for crw).

OS X V10.7 Lion :: .mov Files Missing Icon Images, Won't Play In Preview App

Jun 4, 2012

My .mov files no longer have icon images and will no longer play in the preview app.They all worked fine in snow leopard. Most of the files were shot on a canon 5d and then formatted to prores422 with mpeg streamclip. very basic stuff. This is seriously slowing down my work process as I use the preview app contantly when sorting new footage. All of the clips play fine in QT but not in preview.

OS X :: How To Disable Icon Preview In Column View

Oct 29, 2009

To stop the lagging of broswing server folders using OSX column view, I'd like to disable the 'icon preview' in OSX as the caching if the icon previews is what is grinding out fileserver browsing on our AFP server down. In Leopard 10.5 this option/checkbox is visible under the Finders View Options but on our Tiger Macs, the icon preview checkbox is missing?

Under View Options there are only the other two checkboxes visible which are the preview column and show icons. In Tiger you can turn off Icon Preview for desktop items as the icon preview option is available when you ctrl+click on the desktop but I cant seem to do it for anywhere else, in particular for when I browse server folders.

Software :: Unable To View Thumbnails In Imovie Hd / Each Thumbnail Is Shaded In Green

Mar 31, 2009

I upgraded to imovie 08 last year and have not been able to learn how to use it. As I still have imovie hd, I opened a new project in the old imovie hd and imported some photos and movies (.mov) files. When the movies and photos came in, each thumbnail is shaded in green. I cannot see through this green shading to the photos or movies at all. Even when I click on the thumbnail of either a photo or movie it just comes up as a large green square, however when I 'play' the movie file from the clip viewer I can see the contents of the movie. As soon as I stop playing it, the clip goes back to having the green shading over the top. Have you heard of this before and is there anything I can try to fix it. I have looked in the forum but cannot see anything specific to this problem

OS X :: Preview Not Opening FDF Files Or Images?

Sep 22, 2010

Recently the preview program has stopped working. I cannot open PDF files or image files, i.e. jpeg. The only thing I can think of that I've done recently is installing a program called "MailRaider." I just uninstalled it using a program called "Appdelete."

I tried this suggestion from the apple discussion forum that did not work:

Go to the finder, find one of the PDFs you can not open. then click on that PDF one time. go to the file menu, chose get info from the file menu. the inspector window that pops up will include a section on open with. expand that section and click on the open with menu and chose preview. then click the "Change All.." button.

all PDF should now open with preview. you can repeat this process with jpegs, gifs, tifs, pngs, extra as needed.

What else can I try? Do I need to reinstall the preview application? If so, how do I do that?

OS X :: Leopard And Images - Thumbnails View?

Oct 22, 2007

One of the things that irks me about Mac OS X is how, if you have a folder of images that you do not wish to be included in your iPhoto library, you have to manually change the icon size so as to gain bigger icon previews. On Windows XP, if a folder contains lots or mostly photos, Windows will recognise this and the folder view will change automatically to Thumbnail view, negating any need to manually manage icon size. Does Leopard offer this behavior at all?

OS X :: Possible To Change Quality Of Resized Images With Preview?

Sep 12, 2010

Does anyone know if you can change the quality of a resized image with Preview? I've created a service to resize images down to 800px width, but most of the time the file size is as large as the original. This is resizing screenshots off my mbp (1440x900 res).

OS X :: Preview Not Opening Any Images - No Restriction On Permissions

Feb 22, 2009

Preview will still open .pdf, but not .jpg. It happened suddenly, no rhyme or reason. I've checked the info on the .jpgs, there's no restriction on the permissions that should keep them from opening, and Preview is selected as the app to open them. I've tried trashing the .plist, repairing permissions, and restarting. No dice. I'm running 10.5.6, and haven't installed anything recently.

OS X :: Preview Not Displaying Images Since Snow Leopard

Oct 13, 2009

Since I upgraded to Snow Leopard, I've been noticing that Preview does not display images. A box will open and the background will be there, but no picture. I can scan images, and the automatic preview image that pops up is blank. I can download images from the internet, and they will appear as icons on my desktop, but when I double click them I get an appropriately sized blank Preview box. I can save the image to a thumb drive and put it on my girlfriend's computer (we run identical iMacs, for reference), and it will appear on her computer, but she is using the Adobe suite.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: New Preview Won't Open Single Images

Feb 19, 2012

I have been using preview to investigate screen shots I've been taking. The problem is preview is opening every single file I've viewed with it when I open it. I take a lot of screenshots.

How do I get image preview to open JUST the image I told it to open? How do I make it stop opening multiple images at once when I don't ask it to?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: JPEG Preview Images Blurry After Editing

Jun 8, 2012

When I edit a photograph in photoshop (cs3/cs4 etc, it doesn't matter which version) the preview of that image goes blurry after its saved. The image is the full res still and hasn't lost any quality but when I have the icons that are of a large size they appear really blurry and 'low-res'. I know its a small gripe but it makes things difficult as a photographer when I am trying to organize images that perhaps look similar or I want to see as a whole set.

Mac Pro :: Preview Markup Ruins Images Since Update To Yosemite

Dec 4, 2014

I take screenshots on my Mac Pro and then I usually annotate them using markup in Preview. However, since the update to Yosemite, when I save a marked up image, the colours go weird. It's like they turn negative or super saturated. 

This is a screenshot taken before I mark it up using Preview. I do some markup in Preview (please note, this is a screenshot of the image OPEN in Preview and having markup added to it, but not saved)..Then I save it and this is what happens.. Is it a bug in Preview? I'm on the very latest updates for Yosemite 10.10.1

Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), Early 2008, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470

OS X Yosemite :: Can't View Images Sent Or Received Via IMessage / SMS Text / AIM

Ever since upgrading to Yosemite OS X on my MacBook pro, I've been unable to view pictures that I send or receive via SMS Text and iMessage on my phone, and receive via AIM, within iMessage on my computer. 

All images show up as their file name only, and cannot be viewed or downloaded (see attached screen shots.) 

I can view the images fine on my phone, just not on the computer. I've played around with iMessage settings and nothing seems to work.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Why Does Preview Turn .tiff Images Black When Rotate Them

Apr 23, 2012

I just scanned some negatives (about a 3 hour endeavor) and when I rotated some of the images in TIFF format in Preview, there is a pause as it loads in the information, and then the photo turns black. I tried running it in Photoshop and the images are still black. Is it because the file size is too large so preview decides to throw away all of the information? Are there any ways to get these photos back?  

Info:
Preview, Mac OS X (10.7.3), photos turn black when rotated
