Quick look isn't working on files, it shows an icon only on Mac OS Sonoma
I got a new M3 MBP and have been transferring everything over. On my old MBP 2015 I could use quick look to see what the files were both offline and online. On my new MBP when I do quick look it only gives me an icon. It doesn't show what is in the file or the photo. I really need to be able to see what is in these files. Why isn't allowing me to see what is in them? Does anyone know how to resolve this!!!
Thank you!

Hi they are both, on my 2015 MBP I can quick look the files that are online only and local, but with my new MBP it only shows me an icon. I tested it again with my old computer to make sure I wasn't looking at the ones that were local and online, but the ones that had the little cloud by them I could quick look at them it would show me the image or the file not an icon.
Thank you!
