In Finder you can preview files just by hitting space.

This function is broken since some days. Where to look at to repair this? Is there a setting in library, preferences or elsewhere?

Using: Snow Leopard, latest updates installed.

    Does Command-Y work as shortcut in Finder? Does qlmanage -p path/to/file work in Terminal?

  • Is the menu item File » Quick Look activated or deactivated when a file is selected in Finder? Is its keyboard shortcut Command-Y? Does Quick Look work in other applications, such as Mail (click an attachment once, then press Space)?

  • Well, it is strange... Shortly after the problem occurred it worked again, then the problem occurred again. At the moment it works... Maybe some kind of background service could be inactive some times?
