There are missing Minecraft versions
In this case, there is no "Snapshot 1.2" while there is a "Snapshot 1.3", while the "Snapshot 1.2" (which is a prerelease of Minecraft 1.2.1) is available on this link https: //assets.minecraft.net/1_2/minecraft.jar , on Mojang servers
I actually found that many Snapshots/Prereleases were missing from the launcher while they were on Mojang servers, e.g.
Snapshots/Prereleases of Minecraft 1.0 like Beta 1.9 Prerelease 1 or Beta 1.9 Prerelease 6
Snapshots of Minecraft 1.1 like as Snapshot 11w47a
Snapshots/Prereleases of Minecraft 1.2.1 like Snapshot 12w03a or Prerelease 1.2
Snapshots of Minecraft 1.3 like Snapshot 12w15a (Prereleases Minecraft 1.3 is already available in the launcher)
And they are all available on Mojang servers, but not in the launcher
I found it weird and that's why I'm here
I know there are missing versions of Minecraft (even if some have been found) but these are not missing, they are on Mojang servers, they are missing only on the launcher

Hi there!
Please, attach launcher_log.txt file and screenshots/video of the issue.
Could you try to reinstall the Launcher? After deleting it, find .minecraft and delete the file - what is important that this file should be deleted from the trash bin, because corrupted files from the old .minecraft file may interract with the newly generated .minecraft file.
Does this issue occur on the newest version of Launcher?
