Yes, i made a brand new project and put a minimal animation but it still won't preview anything. Spacebar doesn't start it either.

Click on the eyeball. It should be blue too.

I have been having this issue as well, and I found a bizarre reason why it was happening in my case. I recently changed my audio hardware to a pair of bluetooth headphones. Switching it back to "speakers" eliminated the issue. Worth a shot to try that, anyway.

Oh my God. This fixed it. I've had this issue intermittently, on several different computers, for years. Thank you!

(On a side note, Adobe, why on Earth would something like changing the audio hardware setting fix this.)
