Anyone seen or have a solution for this ... ?
After several (not measured how many) days of doing similar previews, I
try a macOS preview to do a 'quick look' at something like a JPG or PDF
and I get the spinning beach ball and a 'pause' of what feels like a
minute. And then the preview appears. It seems to happen on quick look
and also if opening a folder where it wants to do a preview of a file
I'm highlighting. The same happens in the Applications folder if
clicking on an App and macOS is wanting to show the app's preview icon
in the finder window. I did a Malwarebytes scan just in case.
Eventually I can't live with it and do a restart. Then it all works fine
again, until the next time. I have loads of free memory and around 33%
free disk space. I've googled for solutions and tried one (deleting the
folder ~Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview) but that didn't fix it
unless the restart afterwards was necessary too. I'm currently in the
period where its all working fine so can't yet reproduce anything or
check on possible fixes.
Thought I'd ask the group if anyone else had come across this. No doubt
an upgrade to macOS (to High Sierra or Mojave) might fix it but I'm not
at a convenient point to do this currently.
