I have a newer PC build sitting behind me and it occurred to me to see how PM10 and TP7 behaved on that machine.  It's the same.  ThumbsPlus (SP2) sees the PSD preview fine, while Photo Manager 10 doesn't see it at all. I'll appreciate any other ideas you, other mods, or users come up with.  Thanks - Dave       Marc Sabatella on "Cannot See Photoshop PSD File Thumbnails in File List" http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/cannot-see-photoshop-psd-file-thumbnails-in-file-list#post-31014 Sat, 22 Nov 2008 22:18:44 +0000 Marc Sabatella 31014@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <blockquote> <cite><a href="#post-30914">Dave McKeen said:</a></cite> In Photoshop CS3 I have Image Previews = Always Save and Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility = Always.  I can see the Photoshop preview thumbnails in ThumbsPlus Pro 7. </blockquote> I don't work with Photoshop, but it sure sounds from the above like there should be thumbs there to display.  Although do make sure there isn't another option in CS3 to save thumbs as something separate from the above. Anyhow, you might try with the various thumb-related options in ACDSee under Tools->Options->File List.  You might need to select images and run Database->Rebuild Thumbnails after changing those options.   Dave McKeen on "Cannot See Photoshop PSD File Thumbnails in File List" http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/cannot-see-photoshop-psd-file-thumbnails-in-file-list#post-30914 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 01:43:52 +0000 Dave McKeen 30914@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ Hi,  I am sure that once upon a time when I browsed to folders containing PSD files I could see the thumbnails of the preview Photoshop stores with the files.  I can't see them now. In In Filters>Configure Filters I had only Show Image Files checked.  If I choose Show All Files I see the PSD listed and a Photoshop icon where I would expect to see the thumb, but can't view the thumb.  In Photoshop CS3 I have Image Previews = Always Save and Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility = Always.  I can see the Photoshop preview thumbnails in ThumbsPlus Pro 7. Any ideas why I'm not seeing the thumbs?  Thanks - Dave
