Bridge

I like to review my retouch work in Adobe Bridge so I can scroll through my pages consecutively while they are displayed in fit to page size on the screen - BUT - there are times when I want to zoom into a certain section of the particular page to view small details without having to reopen the file in photoshop.  If i try to zoom it just makes the image ridiculously large and I wind up having to revert back to the regular view. To see the actual small details have to re-open the page in photoshop.  Can you please address this issue? I see many people would like a more controlled zoom function in the Bridge full screen preview mode. Either a hot key combo (Ctrl+ or Ctrl -) or perhaps a mouse scrolling option? Others have suggested there is a way to set the mouse scrolling option - but I tried those suggestions and it does not work for me.  Would love to be able to use my TourBox to zoom in and out in full screen preview mode.

Hello, in Bridge, I have a white circle with a blue downward arrow on my desktop folder. I cannot open this folder. I have already set it so that all items from subfolders are displayed. I have also reset Bridge. However, the problem persists. Is there a solution for this? Thank you very much!

I created a preset in Bridge for exporting files with the goal of taking a folder of jpegs, reducing the file size and saving them to a new folder as jpegs. They were exported as PDF. I carefully looked at all the options in the "Edit Preset" panel and the image format is set to jpeg. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

Hi there! I tried Bridge in order to synchronize the monitor colour appearance for all Adobe (»Creative Cloud«) apps under Windows 11. I failed … How to do this successfully? Thanks!!

Hi . . . I'm working on a project and want to sort my images according to lens type using Bridge.  How would I do that? Thank you.

Recently, after updating to Mac OS Tahoe 26, my Adobe apps have been struggling. For example, anytime I try and use Adobe Bridge, every time I click something, it takes a very long time to load, and it happens every time I click anything, even if i just go to a different folder. So, I tried using Photoshop and it did the same thing. Is anyone else experiencing this? Has anyone found a solution?Thanks. Please help! I need to use this for a college assignment. 

How can I create a keyboard shortcut for placing the selected image in InDesign?

I'd like to ask if Adobe Bridge is currently available for free commercial use. I don't see an option to purchase it, so I assume it's free. Or do you have to purchase a product to use it for free?

I want to reset Adobe Bridge to its default settings. How can I do this?   

Bridge 2024 won't uninstall. Creative Cloud! Really? Overpriced and doesn't work

Is it safe to uninstall Adobe Bridge?I can't recall installing it at all and I don't use it but unsure if it's needed on my system for use by other Adobe packages. I also have two Bridge updates sitting in my Creative Cloud window that I'd like to remove if possible.Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I’d like to ask how to change the top title bar to a dark color in Adobe Bridge. I remember it was possible in the 2021 version, but after the updates, I can no longer find this option. Is there a way to enable a dark theme for the title bar in the latest version? Thank you!

I have rebooted multiple times, uninstalled, reinstalled, installed the beta version, and Bridge is still hanging up at 0% when trying to batch rename and move files.

Bridge freezes up much more often when I'm working offline. Oftentimes, I spend more time restarting Bridge than I do working in it. I believe the program (app) is trying to access the internet for some reason and freezing when it fails to do so. Are there any settings that I can use to help remedy this situation? I have no files stored on any cloud, so this is not the problem. For reference, I am using Windows 11 on a computer with an Intel Core Ultra 9 with 32 Gb RAM. Both Windows and Bridge are both fully updated whenever I am online (at least weekly). The problem occurs when I'm updating metadata, shutting down, opening a file, deleting a file, batch renaming, etc. Usually, the only other apps I have open are Windows File Explorer and Photoshop. Thank you for any suggestions you might have.

Installed Bridge 13.0.1.583 to fix all the navigation issues that Adobe introduced into Bridge with the last major release.  That worked, but now the simple task of double-clicking a vector file (tested with .ai or .eps) fails to actually open Illustrator to work on the file. I have to manually open Illustrator then drag the file to open it. I swear I spend more time adjusting my workflows and having to report / monitor issues online than it takes to just work. Please fix.  And please get it together.  The conitnual breaking of normal features to fix something is beyond frustrating.

Hello, everyone. I have a little problem. I have started using Adobe Bridge for my day to day work cause I can edit faster than Lightroom and send out good edited photos fast as I work in the sports photography field. The software is great but I have noticed that it's patchy. I have a Canon 5D mark III and I usually add a star rating to my good images at any point of the game when there is any small breaks so I cut down on "editing/picking the images" time. The big problem is that in 90% of my shoots the software misses about 5-10 images that has a star on the photo. I put the sd card back in the camera and the star is there but when I plug it back in the computer some photos just doesn't have them and this whole workflow is busted because I lose shots. Is there a fix for this? I might try with a sd card reader if the same thing happens.

I have two folders that I frequently switch between in Adobe Bridge (version 14.1.9). I want each folder to retain its own sort order:Folder A → sorted by Date Modified, most recent firstFolder B → sorted by Filename, ascendingHowever, when I navigate between them using Favorites or the Back arrow, Bridge applies the last-used sort to the new folder instead of keeping the per-folder sort.The folders are geographically far apart in the Folders panel, so scrolling to them each time is difficult. Isn’t this what the Favorites panel was created for?Is there a way to make Bridge respect each folder’s individual sort order when switching like this, without having to manually reapply the sort each time?  

On a recent trip, I used a 16-35mm lens together with a couple of other lenses.  Adobe Bridge does not locate images using that lens with either the filter function or the find function.  On the metadata of one image using the 16-35 lens which I located myself all the metadate is correct. I have exhausted all online advice which I can find. Anyone know why Bridge won’t locate the lens? Thank you.

Hi, I'm having an issue with opening PDF files from Bridge. I've been used to just double clicking on the files and they just open but that no longer works (only occasionally). Mostly Adobe will open but not the file. It's really frustrating. I've been using the workaround of 'reveal in finder' and then opening from there but it's not ideal. I'm not sure if this is a bug with Bridge or Acrobat. I've deleted preferences on Bridge, rebooted, checked file association but I'm not having any luck. If any one can help, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks, Jo

I'm trying to process a set of wedding images into jpegs. Doing the same thing I've been doing for the past 20 years but they are not precessing and getting held up in Photoshop. The first folder worked fine last week but then I updated and now it's not working. Hoping to get these images out asap but not sure what to do.

Updated to the latest version although the issues has been around for months.Thumbnail generation: it just lingers inside a folder with raw files and does nothing or takes forever before generating thumbnails even if there are two or three of those.It sometimes hangs when it has to delete a few files.I remember it was very snappy a few years ago and wondering why it got this worse.Does anyone having the same issues? Hints?

In grid and thumbnail view it will only ever have photos in the top row and I have to scroll right and left to view them, this has only been happening recently and not sure what's happened. I've re-installed Bridge and this is still happening, please let me know if someone has resolved this!

I seem to have this recurring issue with my Camera Raw Preset Favourites List keeps disappearing. I have to try to remember which ones I've been using, find them among the hundreds I have, and favourite them again. I thought it was an update, but it happened this week without one.Where does Raw save your favourite selection? I can find my Preset List and Ive even tried to create a folder with my Favourites, but it's not showing up.Is there any best practice?
