Hi everybody,
i don't understand why i have this issue. I use the Grain / Stippled filter and frequently (always now) the filter (in the filter galery) is not available.
The preview is empty (white or black).
If you have a solution because i can not work without this filter.
Thanks.

Try Preferences > Plug-ins > Show all Filter groups and names
Does the layer have content? It will not work on an empty layer.
If you are using Photoshop CC, have a look at Filter > Camera RAW > fx > Grain
It gives a much nicer result than Filter > Texture > Grain ​and with much more control. It's perfect for skin texture if used at lower settings than below.

The most likely cause is having the same or near same colors set in both the Foreground and Background Colors in the Toolbox (Tools panel).
Press the D key to reset your toolbox colors to Foreground Black and Background White and then try the Filter>Texture>Grain>Stippled or Filter>Filter Gallery>Texture>Grain>Stippled

Thank you everyone !!! All of your answers is so nice for me.
But Jeff A. won the trophy. Yes Jeff it's that if you have "the same or near same colors set in both the Foreground and Background Colors in the Toolbox" the preview filter shows you a monochromatic color like both of colrs in the toolbox.
Thank you so much !!
