Filter Image Without Type on OSX?

Hello List:

Is it possible to use any kind of wildcard with file filtering on OSX?

I have several JPEG images that show no file type (just the empty boxes)
which often happens when Preview gets ahold of them.  Then when trying to
filter a list of images in an answer file dialog using "JPEG", the
aforementioned JPEGs are grayed out and not selectable.  Is there any way to
work around this?  (Rev 3.5)

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Scott,

If you are absolutely sure that all of the files
are going to be "JPEG" then just rename
the files so that they all have .jpg put onto
the end of them.  Then perform your process.

I hope this helps!
