quicklook crashing

[fisherking]

this started on the current 13.3 beta. this fails: QuickLookUIService (PID 824) (825)

i can't preview with quicklook until i force quit that service. happening periodically. anyone else seeing this? (and i'll report it now in feedback assist)....

is no one else seeing this? it's happening on both my (m2) macs, both on the current beta.

anyone?... 🤔...

Hey, I'm having the exact same problem on the official release on 13.3 (MbP Apple M1 Max). It's super annoying.
The workaround is to relaunch the finder each time Quicklook freezes/crashes. So very often if you want to go through a series of photos for example...
I filed a bug. I hope they fix it soon.

I can confirm that under macOS 13.3 the QuickLookUIService also becomes unresponsive on an Intel 2020 iMac as well.

definitely something apple needs to fix (hopefully on the current beta...)

Hey, Apple released an update (13.3.1) that fixes the issue, at least for me.
Whew...

Seems like it! It was slightly random, so maybe I am just lucky and haven't hit the bug once again. But I don't think so. I do think this is fixed.

Super good thing; I use that feature continuously.

haven't seen the issue in a while (am on 13.4); am hoping it is, in fact, fixed...

EDIT: just happened again. not yet fixed 😔
