Could you send me one of the files, to see if I can see a thumbnail of it?

I'd be fascinated to know if this made a difference.

I have to go, I'm so sorry. I have to take my son to a birthday party. How many sets of images have this problem?

Oh gee, you mustn't do that! https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/02/trash-those-jpegs.html I don't suppose you still have the files on the card?

This is starting to point to something about the import process. How did you get the photos from camera to computer; and did you change your method in any way, recently?

A jpeg that you saved after editing? Or did you shoot Raw+Jpeg in camera?

And is it only the raw files? Once you edit and save as a PSD, you can see the thumbnail of that ok?

Interesting. But you can still open the files ok?

Hi Jo, can you still see thumbnails of older images? Is it just the newest photos that won't generate? Or can you not see any thumbnails at all?

What was the solution?

To keep your mind at ease, you can download the little "DisplayProfile" app that I referenced in this article. Once both screens are calibrated, you can drag that app from screen to screen, and each time you do so, you'll see it change to reflect the profile being used for that screen.

Don't worry, it won't Just calibrate the second screen the same way you always did. Your graphics card will know the difference.

Firstly, you should know that resizing is the most important part of printing. If your lab needs 300ppi, you provide 300ppi. End of story. Secondly, you're NOT increasing it!!!!!!!! The resolution of the photo (at its full size) is WAAAAAAAAY higher than 300ppi when the size is 17mm wide. Try it and see! In the Image Size dialog, temporarily turn off the "Resample image" checkbox, then change the width to 17mm. You'll see the resolution shoot up to the thousands, probably.

WHAT????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Come on, you're in the Print Sharpening Class. I can't believe you'd even ask that question.

72ppi? Are you nuts?

No, the colour of the blanket is wildly varied, immediately below the child.

How did you go?

No, because you can't make actions in Elements, you have to make them in Photoshop. But Elements has fewer functions than Photoshop, so you have to be careful to only use functions that Elements has.

Elements is the far more complicating factor. It's pretty rare for actions not to work on older versions of Photoshop ... but it's very common for actions not to work in Elements. So you'll definitely need at least one version of that, if you intend to do this seriously.

Oh, hooray!!! How is your raw processing going?

Then I don't know, sorry. The only issue I know of is that Firefox doesn't play nicely with secondary screens. Have you tried resetting Firefox?

You don't have another screen plugged into it? You're just using the computer's own screen?

You have an iMac, is that correct?

So Safari matches Photoshop, but Firefox doesn't?

That's weird. You've checked to make sure your monitor calibration is still ok?
