Bridge

I have an idea....an option to reduce number of displayed images or current images read to display mathematically. 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 etc. You could then have pages with the other photos ready to be displayed and not qued up all together. Get my point?If I use "Collections" to find all images with say "Beer" as a keyword, I get 3945 images under that term within the "Content" window. This slows down my computer considerably. Granted it's an 8 year old Windows workstation, but it has a Intel 3.5GHz Xeon, 32GB EEC RAM and a old NVIDIA Quadro K4200 graphics card...but it should be able to render those without turning into quicksand. If I use "Filter" to finetune with another keyword, say "Outdoors" I get 599 images and everything runs smooth as butter on a ward summers day.So If I can flip a switch to only que up 1/4 of those 3945 images, everything would be smoother. I don't NEED all those to be available immediately anyway.

Adobe Bridge freezes for 15 seconds. That happens with .mov files (with alpha channel). And when I preview (pressing play) the video is not seen, only the audio is played.

I recently recovered a large lot of files that had been inadvertently deleted. Most of them came back like this:What is it, and how do I convert it to JPG?  This is new to me. Please be gentle - I'm not a tech expert. Or point me in the right direction if this isn't the place to ask. Thank you!!Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello,In Bridge 2024,1. Search criteria are empty.2 . change the color of the exposure. It's quite slow.All other settings seem to migrate fine in Bridge.

I have scanned a number of family photos that have relevant information written on the back.  I have currently scanned the front and back into two separate files.  I'd like to keep both images together in one photo so they stay together and not get lost.  I've used photoshop 2023 and loaded them as a stack then labeled each layer as front and back.  Is there a better way to accomplish this with a large number of photos? My goal is to preserve photos and information for future generations.

Hi everyone !I made a takeout of all the pictures of my Google Photos because I want to sort them (because it's a mess in here). I'm not a photograph, but I'm used to take screenshots or download a lot of pictures from the Internet.I noticed that in the metadata, there is some information about the camera who was used when it's a photo, and there is nothing when it's a screenshot. I want to put the photos in a first folder and all the screenshots, memes, etc in another folders, and separate them by the presence or the absence of data about the camera.  I'm not sure to be clear enough, to write in a perfect english (I'm not an english native speaker).  I'm also not used to Adobe Bridge (or any Adobe Software, to be honest), so I don't know if it's important but you'll know it. Thank for your help ! 

When I let Bridge index a folder of RAW files, initially the CPU usage is high, then it drops after all RAW files have been indexed. But Bridge continues to use 20-25% CPU, even if it apparently is doing nothing. When I exit Bridge (i.e. I close the window), this 20-25% CPU continues in the background.It only stops when I kill the Bridge process in the task manager. Is there any way to preven Bridge from using 20-25% CPU when it's doing nothing?

Started using Adobe Bridge Downloader on Ventura. It allows clear file name format e.g 20231020-102311-name. Unfortunately subfolder names are not as clear 20231020 instead of 2023-10-20. My eyes are getting painful. Lack of conistency between file name and subfolder name. Also lack of consistency between Bridge and Lightroom Classic. For years all my folders and subfolders where getting clear names 2023-10-20 so why it is not possible in Bridge. That is just stupid!

Hi, the 'Date created' metadata is wrong on some of my photos but when I try to edit them in Bridge I'm getting a message saying "This property cannot be modified": Any ideas on how to fix this please? I can actually edit some other metadata (it has a pencil next to it) - just not this. Thank you 🙂 

I'm new to these fora so maybe this isn't the place to discuss a BRIDGE problem, but I'm hoping for some guidance.I'm using Windows 10, PS 25, Bridge 14.01, and I don't use Lightroom or the cloud.I have been using the TOP OF STACK feature in BRIDGE to display a JPG of a completed composite for many years while the rest of the stack sontains composite sub frames. Over the last several versions of Bridge these .jpgs have lost their top of stack status when I re-open a subdirectory. This used to happen to only some stacks,I now open the stack, re-apply top of stack status to the .jpg and close the stack, but with 14.01 I additionally have to check show .jpgs to even see them in an opened stack.

So, with the latest update of Adobe Bridge, AI format files are now showing transparency grid in Bridge preview and thumbnails, instead of standard white background (the way it's been, like forever). Unchecking "Show Transparency Grid" in the the thumbnail preview options drop-down actually makes it worse... rendering the artboard background as dark grey instead (screenshots attached).The worst part about this is that the transparency grid seems to be generated completely at random, as you can see in the screenshot (DIKUW_Logo_R1 vs DIKUW_Logo_R2), where one shows transparent background and the other artboard-white. There's no difference in the setup of these two files, as far as I can see... they're both presentation files for a 2 rounds of a logo design. R2 was in fact generated from R1 (resaved with a different name and updated content).I find this new development extremely annoying... can anyone shed some light on what's happening here and/or how I can remedy this?Thank you.

Just upgraded Macbook Pro 2019 16" to Sonoma, and now dragged/dropped and downloaded files and images show on desk top for 2 seconds, only to disappear and show up on Bridge...Any suggestions how to adjust this so files remain on desktop as well as bridge as they did on Ventura? Many Thanks!

Please, Please, Please add Dropbox Integration to Bridge....Every time I have to create a simple Dropbox link (or any other dropbox functionality for that matter) for a file or folder I have to right click, open an explorer window then grab create a link from explorer...

En Bridge al pulsar "F" para ir a pantalla completa sin elementos del espacio de trabajo la pantalla empieza a parpadear mientras me muevo por la imagen. Mi GPU es la RTX 3070 completamente compatible y tengo un procesador i7 de decima generación. 

Hi! I'm currently experiencing an issue I hadn't had before in Bridge. Until now, when working on TIFFs and exporting these into different JPEGS in different folders, bridge would automatically embed the same color label and rating as the tiff. However, this isn't happening anymore in bridge 2024.Does anyone know how to fix this?  Thanks in advance 

After much researching and even calling Adobe, with no solutions, I cannot figure out how to manually sort/reorder keywords within my Assigned Keywords list in Adobe Bridge. I'd like a customized and streamlined workflow instead of using the default alphabetized keywords. Alphabetizing keywords isn't helpful to a workflow if kewords are not already next to each other alphabetically. Adobe Support wanted me to number each keyword in the order I wanted them and I had to explain how that is not helpful for writing keywords to metadata or searching. Bridge won't allow me to reorder or drag them where needed. Is this possible?

In a nutshell: I've been using Photoshop since it first came out. I don't need the normal advise sites like to give people such as, "Please make sure your computer is plugged in", or, "Have you tried turning Photoshop on?". Not much help.Here's the deal. When trying to sort images by Date Created in Bridge the actual time the photo was taken isn't being taken into account. As a lot of people are saying, when covering an event with more than one camera it would be nice if there was the ability to sort all of the images by the time, not just the date. Has anyone come up with a solution for this yet? Since upgrading to the latest CC version, 9.0.2, it seems to be worse than ever.I'm open for someone telling me I'm doing something wrong. Wouldn't be the first time I've missed the boat when it comes to understanding something.Any advise would be greatly appreciated.ThanksDiscussion successfully moved from Photoshop to Bridge

Bridge suddenly stopped seeing the files on the sd card.Apple image capture can see them.If I connect the camera with a cable, Bridge can see them.

Hello, in the bridge 2024 version the content window does not show me the names of the files or the number of stars of the ratings in the thumbnails. I work with windows 2010. Thanks

I'm looking for a software solution so that I can access videos files that are on a network drive. Specifically, some sort of database software. Would Adobe Bridge be a good solution for this?

Photoshop and Bridge have both suddenly decided that NEF files are 'not the right kind of document' and refuse to open them. It was working perfectly up to about 10 mins ago. Whats going on?I have closed the apps and restarted my Windows PC and its still the same, it won't open NEF files I'm using the latest versions of both: Bridge is v14.0.1.137, PS is v25.0.0.Any help much appreciated, I have a ton of work to do. Thank you,Brian

Is there any chanche that someday we will be able to use search on a NAS drive in Bridge? Or is Adobe locking us up in their Cloud?Or has anyone has a solution wich i'm not aware about?

I'm having issues with keywords, specifically an added keyword will be shown in "Assigned Keywords" but it wont be ticked off in the keyword list. Trying to tick it off, just un-ticks it right away. For some reason, it's added to "Other Keywords" in italics. Trying to delete the other keyword listing just results in it repopulating. I'm using "Collections" to aggregate a specific keyword and this is where I am at during thisIf I use "Find in Bridge" and go into the specific folder, the same behavior is experienced. So from what I gather, the issue is not with "Collections". I also have the latest Bridge 2023 13.0.5.763 installed (as 2024 has been waaay too buggy for general use for me) and this version does not exhibit this behaviour. In general it is also WAY snappier and less prone to slowdowns or performance slumps.

Please advise that when I open the screen of Camera Raw Beta v 14.01there is a screen without the buttons - see attached shot screen(I'm working on Macbook Pro MacOs Sonoma v 14.0)
