Bridge

I have the same problem as a lot of people in that whenever I try to delete or move an image I get the dreaded error message. I have followed the advice in previous posts - changing permissions by unlocking the padlock but when I go back into the 'get info' tab the padlock is on again. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, purged cache but now I am all out of ideas. Please help. I am using Mac Sequoia 15.6.1. I can delet files from Finder but this is not a good option 

I bought a new MAC yesterday (see stats below). this morning before doing anything else on the MAC, I completed  a clean install of Photoshop and Bridge.  -Bridge is not reading the Western Digital external hard drive (EHD). -Photoshop reads the EHD with no problem.I can  import multiple images from the EHD via Script/Load Files into Stack to do focus stacking in PS.  -Even after giving Bridge permission in Security/Privacy in Settings (and rebooting), it still will not read the EHD. The EHD icon shows in the Content window next to the Mac HD, but when I click on the EHD, the message in the window says “No items to display”. I’ve waited several minutes hoping Bridge was needing to read the files.   -Accessing the EHD with PS shows up immediately with folders/files readily accessible.  I had this problem with Bridge 2024 on my 2015 MacBook. After working with tech support (we could never figure out the problem), I decided to keep us

Hi, I have Windows 11 and randomly when I go to transfer raw files off my SD card using Bridge, it will show this locked icon for the folders of the SD card. This only happens sometimes, but lately more often. This prevents me from rating/staring the photos I want to transfer. There is NOT a physical lock on my sd card. I checked that first. 

I'm running a Mac Studio, using OS Sequoia Version 15.6.1 (software updated today - 14th Sept 25), and using Photoshop CC 26.10.0 adn Bridge 15.1.1.729, both updated 26 days ago. When attempt a batch action from bridge, choosing Tools>Photoshop>Batch, it looks like it is going to work, but nothing happens.  I have tried TIOATIOA to no avail.  Any ideas?? 

Requesting best path to learn how to use Adobe Bridge, had it for years, just never went to it as did all with PSHP . Just saw so much on Bridge of mine, no idea how to put it in PSHP - is that what you do and so ....for me, this is new found fun once I 'get it' (howto) thank you to   anyone out there, kindred spirits in art. CDW.  I want to make a children's book ! 

When I make changes to photos in bridge using camera raw, it only changes it on bridge. I figured this is like any other photo editing application where it also changes the original source image. For example, when I use a photo editing app on my phone like Snapseed, once I make the changes on the app, it'll actually change the original image in my photos. Is it possible to make it so that when I change images on bridge, it also changes the original source images I have on file?

I frequently display a smaller sized preview when checking the balance of the overall image.I think the algorithm for this display has changed since bridge ver. 2023. The attached image is an enlarged screenshot of the preview panel with the smaller size.In ver.2022 and before, when "use software rendering" was checked, the preview was smooth.However, ver.2023 and 2024 have jaggies and are difficult to see. This is especially true for thin objects and objects with high border contrast, such as beards and wires. The problem is that the accuracy is changing between the reduced output and the preview of the same size in bridge.(That's why I used to use this option, but it no longer works and I can't update recent version) I would like a fix.   

Photoshop Bridge v15.11. When launched, shows an error message with the Bridge's logo in it and nothing else (see pic). When click OK to the message, Bridge quits. I restarted the computer (Mac OS 15.6) and the error continued there. I uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge and the error message is still there. Got fixed temporarelly with a "Hard Reset" method but when launched again the error message shows again. Any ideas? Thanks.

Bridge opens .psds in Illustratror even though the file type association is photoshop 2025. psd did open in the photoshp beta version until we deleted the beta. Cheers Steve

Dear Community,  after manually setting InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, and Bridge (all up to date as of 10/9/25) to Europe Prepress 3, Adobe RGB (1998) and Coated Fogra39 (ISO 12647-2:2004) and clicking Apply in Bridge (having selected Europe Prepress 3), no synchronziation happens. After restarting all said applications, InDesign and Bridge say they are synchronized, Illustrator says they aren't, and Photoshop and Acrobat don't say anything. What am I missing here? Thanks!

Hi all, I use Bridge for the first view of my raw files. I rate my files to continue in lightroom later.Normally I love to work with the full screen, but I need the meta data like aperture, shutter speed and the ISO setting. Is it possible to show these datas in the full screen mode? Thx and regards, Moritz

Bridge v15 hangs for approx. 30 seconds each time it starts, whether or not the current folder contains any files or is empty. If I click on Bridge during this time, the display turns grey and I the title bar displays a "not responding" caption - further clicks cause a Windows dialog to open with options to wait for the program to respond or terminate the program.This used to be a problem early this year but one of the spring 2025 updates cured this, until it restarted after an August 2025 update, but now it occurs every time the program starts. I have purged all 100% previews in cache and also purged all local cache files, but this makes no difference to the delay when Bridge starts. It doesn't make any difference whether the current folder is on an internal SSD or not - I don't use Bridge with any external drives. My PC is running the current version of Windows 11 with the latest updates and a Ryzen 7 cpu, 32Gb RAM and plenty of free disk space. All of my Adobe programs are

Windows11 with Bridge 15.1.1 reinstalled. Bridge opens, don't find photos on d: drive and freezes

Every time I try to batch rename files in Adobe Bridge 15.1.1.729 Bridge freezes when it reaches ca. 10%Sometimes I want to change the following order of my pictures, so I give a picture which has a name and number already a number of the pictures which it should follow with suffix 'b'.When I want to rename the series of pictures, Bridge freezes and when I stop the action and stop and start Bridge again. The renumbered pictures are at the end of the row, with "temp1" at the end of the name. Then I try the action again, and then it works.I had online help from Adobe 2 times. They installed Adobe Bridge again and that helps, but only for 1 or 2 times using the batch rename function, then the problem starts again.My numbering looks like this: 5809_ESP_Provincia-de-Salamanca_La-Alberca So when I change the number, I put "b" after the number of the picture that should be first to this one, as i.e. 5782b_ESP_Provincia-de-Salamanca_La-Alberca, and then I rename the pictures unt

Images aren't showing up in Bridge from my new Nikon Z5II Any suggestions on what is the issue?  Thanks! 

Title: Filter Panel is incomplete - Only shows 3 options after clean reinstallBody:Hello,I am having a persistent issue with my Adobe Bridge Filter panel. The panel only displays three filter options: "Date Created," "Date Modified," and "Color Mode."

Hallo. Warum kann ich in Bridge nur mit Strg+ Ziffer Bewerten udnd Beschriften? Kann ich das irgendwo ändern, dass ich nur die Ziffer eingebn brauche, so wie in LRc? Früher gab es ein Häkchen in den Voreinstellungen; das fehlt jetzt bei mir!

OSX 13.7.1. I don't use Bridge much, but wanted to check a few things out this morning & found that both 2024 and 2025 are crashing when starting up. It looks like it's doing so just before loading images or the rest of the interface or something. 2024 asked me if I wanted to add two scripts this morning, which I did; when that wouldn't start up, I installed 2025, which has the same problem, so wondering if something in those two scripts did it. That said, I can't find the startup scripts. Unfortunately the Adobe article I saw only showed how to activate/deactivate them from within Bridge. Any help appreciated!  

Why is Bridge 15.1.1.729 starting to make thumbnails over and over again? I work in the same directory for weeks by now (6400 items), but every morning when I start Bridge, it starts making thumbs as if it has no thumbs in cache. All thumbs are gone!And when it starts making thumbs, it never finishes the job, but it quits making thumbs, whilst the thumbs are not competed until the whole directory is finished.This behaviour is very annoying, as it is very time-consuming and taking resources. Hope Adobe will fix this asap.......

I have Adobe Bridge 15.1.1.729 and im trying to use the find option to look for all my .mov files in my external drive, i use filename criteria ends with .mov, and the thing just finds 300 elements i know i have more than 11,000 .mov files, what is happening? im 35 years old and since i have 14 i can't remember just one version of any adobe software working flawless

After opening a photo in Photoshop from Bridge, the edits that are made that affect metadata info, such as size and  ppi, are not automatically reflected, even though the image is refreshed. Only after selecting another photo and reselecting the edited one again, the changes are shown.

As I'm culling in Bridge, it keeps refreshing and going back to the top of the folder. I then have to scroll down to where I was to continue rating photos. After another minute or two, it will do it again. Does anyone have  a solution for this? It has been doing it that past 2 days. I have updated the program, updated my computer, shut everything down, etc and nothing has worked so far. Any help is greatly appreciated!
