image icon problem

I'm using a Nikon 5700 Coolpix, then transfer images from memory card
to a portable hard drive (Smart Disk Flash Trax) while traveling. When
I connect the hard drive to my computer at home and transfer the images
files to my computer hard drive (Apple G4), the file icons appear as
jpeg icons, not thumbnails. The image icons do appear as thumbnails
when I download memory card images via a card reader. With the Flash
Trax downloads, it is impossible to determine image content without
opening each file. I'm aware I can change the view option in Mac OSX
to icon preview to see the icons. But with 100 images in a folder,
it can take a really long time for all the thumbnails to appear. If
anyone can offer suggestions, I would really appreciate it. Last
summer I used the portable hard drive on a trip to so. east asia and
came back with 2500 images. It took me over a month (evenings after
work) to open each file in photoshop, save it, thereby creating a
thumbnail. Yes...I know if I didn't shoot such volume, I wouldn't
have this problem. But that is also the beauty of digital!
