1) You fix this by right-clicking preview.app from your applications directory, selecting "Get Info", and selecting "Open using Rosseta."

 

2) Wrong forum. This is the news forum.

 

I take it you didn't search around for an answer very hardly. This problem is commonplace and the solution has been posted in numerous places. :-/

 

 

Yep Wrong forum. But It did not work for me. (opening using rosetta).

Yep Wrong forum.

 

Prview.app uses some open GL commands and it is not avilable (for this time) on the most x86 machines.

 

Use iPhoto for pictures.

 

I more the video card you use than the machine.

 

Preview works with "Run with Rosetta".

 

Also you can use Safari or QuickTime to view pictures, Safari loads faster than iPhoto.
