I am running Image 5.x-1.9.
I have chosen the Imagemagick toolkit.
I have copied the proper Imagemagick .inc file to the includes folder in my Drupal installation.
I have checked with my ISP to make sure the convert binary is located where it should be.
I have created filesize presets using imagecache (ImageCache 5.x-2.5).
I have accessed the /admin/settings/image page >Image Sizes and tried to apply my Imagecache preset to the default 'Original/Preview/Thumbnail' labels, rather than using the module defaults, but no image with my resize settings is generated in my files/images folder (which is my default image path). I only end up with an "original" size [myimage].jpg and and a thumbnail size [myimage].thumbnail.jpg.
(I have no problem referencing my Imagecache presets elsewhere on my site, such as in Views. I'm only talking about the Image nodes here, where I seem to have lost the ability to control the greyed-out Original/Preview/Thumbnail Label settings.)
I realize Image 2.x is supposed to fix these issues. I attempted to try the 5.x-2.0-alpha4 version, which resulted in database errors after running update.php, and my losing all my images previously uploaded to my Image nodes using the Image module. (The original images were still in my filles/images folder, but the database no longer referenced them properly.)
I looked for an updrade.txt file to explain issues with upgrading from image 1.x to 2.x but could not find any.
I have been researching support nodes all night and found some patches, but I am not experienced enough to apply them. I thought by trying the Image 2.x version I'd be able to solve the problem, but, like I said, it just resulted in the disappearance of all the images from the Image nodes entirely.
I would appreciate any guidance on regenerating my old images with the sizes I actually set in ImageCache 5.x-2.5 -- i.e. applying the settings to my default Original/Preview/Thumbnail sizes using the Image 5.x-1.9 module, or alternatively, how to regenerate my existing images with my desired sizes using the new Image module 5.x-2.x, without the 2.x version causing so many mysql errors.
Or, at the very least, an idea of why, even with uploading *new* images to *new* image nodes using Image module 5.x-2.x, I can't seem to get my Imagecache presets (as referenced in the Image module Original/Preview/Thumbnail default sizes) to generate properly resized images besides an original size and thumbnail size. (I have since reloaded my site backup to continue using 5.x 1.9 since I couldn't solve this.)
If this is not possible, please consider adding an upgrade.txt file to the Image 2.x version (much in the same way one appeared in the Date 2.x module when upgrading from Date 1.x) to help us get around upgrade issues in our databases.
Thanks very much for your help.

joachim commentedImage doesn't yet use imagecache presets. There's a patch around for 6 somewhere but it needs work.
