Hi folks.
Moving / deleting the Preview plist (preferences) file sometimes works.
But if you want the more reliable fix (which doesn't reset your

Hi Michael and Ronni,
I have the same problem with Preview - from memory it's been there pretty

Hi Neil,
One possibility could be that this is a hardware-specific bug, but
Hi People,
After Peter's comments about Preview, I felt perhaps some people are unaware of
what a very good application Preview is.
Quite some time ago Kirk McElhearn, Macworld published this article.

Hi Michael,
Something is wrong with your Preview Application. First try moving the
preference file.
Quit Preview, move the com.apple.preview.plist file out of
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/ to the Desktop, relaunch Preview, and open
