i just update the Mac OS to Ventura, and now Preview in Ventura no longer supports .eps again.

anyone can help ? thanks

Correct answer Monika Gause
I guess my question is both....

If I have like 50 photos that are in .eps how can I do a bulk file format
change without opening each one? I know in previous versions of mac os you
could do this in finder but no longer with Ventura which is frustrating

Yes,  Apple has dropped support for EPS, which is the reason that this thread even exists.

So you cannot do the conversion with Apple tools.

Probably the batch that Jolien posted would be an idea. In Illustrator you set up a batch  as well.

Are you sure you used this path:

/System/Library/QuickLook

?

Does anyone know a way to convert eps to jpeg? (Aside from opening each
file in an adobe app or doing it online)

What would be the scope of your question?

- doing it without Adobe?

- doing it for thousands of images at the same time and not having to open every single one

it works now. 

Fix: Missing Icon Preview for EPS files in macOS Monterey

Edit the Info.plist File

  1. Go to the following directory
    /System/Library/QuickLook
  2. Copy the “Illustrator.qlgenerator” file. Paste it on the Desktop.
  3. You have to now right-click on this Illustrator.qlgenerator file. Choose Show package contents.
  4. Go to the “Info.plist” file present in the “Contents” folder by using a text editor.
  5. Search for the below line in that file:
    <string>com.adobe.illustrator.ai-image</string>
  6. Add the below line next to the above line (ensure that both these lines have the same indentation).
    <string>com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript</string>
  7. Save this Info.plist” file. Copy the complete “Illustrator.qlgenerator” file. Type it in the below directory:
    /Library/QuickLook
  8. That’s it.
