Can anyone provide the code for an Apple Script to force quit the process QuickLookUIService, please? That would be just as quick without having to relaunch Finder altogether.
@@badischerkieler1182 I tried creating one… had no luck using "Automator" as the service (QuickLookUIService) can only be killed using the "pID" which changes every time you relaunch it.... Unfortunately, I don’t know how to quit service without the pID
If you could use Terminal to "kill" "QuickLookUIService" then you could write a script. Usually a prompt will look like this: Terminal [killall QuickLookUIService] But that does nothing. What you can do is find the pID by using the "grep" command: Terminal [ps ax | grep QuickLookUIService] This will give you the pID of the QuickLookUIService Now you can kill the service by typing: Terminal [ kill PIDNUMBER ] (Replace PIDNUMBER with pID of QuickLookUIService) Ideally, you can use this: Terminal [ ps aux | grep QuickLookUIService | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill ] or Terminal: [ kill $(ps aux | grep 'QuickLookUIService' | awk '{print $2}') ] But that gives the wrong pID Programmers, please help! P.S. The QuickLookService is located here: /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLookUI.framework/Versions/A/XPCServices/QuickLookUIService.xpc/Contents/MacOS/QuickLookUIService
This was exactly what I needed! I kept restarting my computer to fix it, but this was great and to the point. I hate trying to find a quick fix and it is a 10 minute video. Thank you.
Я перерыл весь интернет в поисках решения проблемы! И тут вот оно, нашлось. Я уж думал у меня руки кривые какое-то сочетание клавиш случайно зажали. Спасибо огромное за лайфхак!!! I've searched all over the internet, but can't find a solution. And here it is! I even thought my all thumbs hands have typed some keyboard shortcut. Thank you a lot for the lifehack!
This worked for me just by force quitting the Quicklook (Finder). Thank you! I was losing hope after a year and finally found your video! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Hi! This video works but it somehow reverts back and I couldn't view it quickly anymore :( This has to be my fourth time coming back to this video. What else should I do to make it permanent?
You are not alone, unfortunately you just have to keep doing this, it is really annoying pushing the space bar and nothing plays, hopefully Apple gets this taken care asap.
in my case, the video does play with QL, but the chapters (left of the video) do not load completely, some chapters I get the spinning wheel and never load. But if I place the same video file on my NAS, the thumbnails load fine. I tried reseting the cache, but it didn't help.
instantly I could shoot the problem out, thanks. But it looks temporary, the same issue keep comes up. Isn't there any permanant troubleshooting method?
hi there, i tried all of the suggested tricks, restarted finder, restarted my MBP M1Max and it's still not working for me. i'm having trouble with appleprores422 RAW files, not sure if that makes a difference and how i should go about it. the .mov files don't have thumbnail icons at all, spacebar doesn't play anything, etc. please help!
This has got to be the most annoying bug to date, as long as I've had a Mac this was never an issue until this year, I had force quit it twice to work, needs to be fixed asap, I noticed also I'm having problems with the right click option on anything, Adobe premiere and any tab at the top, right click twice sometimes instead of once and I can't click anything in the drop down menu.
Thanks a lot, amigo !!! I'm working with video and when I cant to se preview it was a huge problem for me. Thank you one more time fore effective solution for me !
Thanks for posting, on my side still can't find the missing QuickLookUIService(Finder) on mac. Only able to find Activity Monitor.app which is not the same as yours.
Monterey has so many bugs it’s really frustrating! I wish new MacBook Pro’s came with big sur (although there are still bugs in that OS). I believe after Snow Leopard apple’s OSes get progressively more buggy and this is unacceptable!
for me this happends every time during start up. quiting doesnt work, next time i turn on mac i have the same isue again. does any one has a solution that works for ever?
⚠QUICKEST WAY: ✅✅✅
Hold down [OPTION] + RighClick on Finder (in your dock)
at the bottom of the context menu, select "RELAUNCH"
Nice! Thanks!

That would be just as quick without having to relaunch Finder altogether.

If you could use Terminal to "kill" "QuickLookUIService" then you could write a script.
Usually a prompt will look like this: Terminal [killall QuickLookUIService]
But that does nothing.
What you can do is find the pID by using the "grep" command: Terminal [ps ax | grep QuickLookUIService]
This will give you the pID of the QuickLookUIService
Now you can kill the service by typing: Terminal [ kill PIDNUMBER ]
(Replace PIDNUMBER with pID of QuickLookUIService)
Ideally, you can use this: Terminal [ ps aux | grep QuickLookUIService | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill ]
or
Terminal: [ kill $(ps aux | grep 'QuickLookUIService' | awk '{print $2}') ]
But that gives the wrong pID
Programmers, please help!

Thanks! What’s astounding is that this bug hasn’t been fixed yet..
This has happened kind of often on mac m1 with monterey.
Thank you so much!
This has been driving me crazy ever since I switched my external hard drive out at the beginning of the year. Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for this, my workflow was very slow for a couple of days there. Works on most up to date M1 Mac Os.

Как сделать так чтобы это навсегда так оставалось? через некоторое время опять приходится через принудительное завершение
@@tazlov7 у меня раз в пару месяцев вылезает это. Видимо, никак.
