Bridge

Bridge unwantingly renames some files in a folder. In Explorer, all the file names are both full and correct. The original file names are sometimes long (persons full name and title). Sample of this is in attached photo. I am using Windows 11. 

On the Bridge dashboard, everytime I open a folder or close an image in Raw, the thumbnails in Bridge automatically, almost like they are changiung sizes to fit a screen resolution. Often times, epecially when in a hurry, I end up clicking on the wrong image or folder as it moved due to the resizing. Is there a way to change this setting to prevent this from happening? Thanks in advance.

I shoot real estate and use the group photos to HDR stacks in Bridge. This is to make it easier to organise the bracketed shots for culling.I encounter a problem with Bridge when using filters (color/rating). When you first make Bridge group your shots to HDR stacks it displays the first bracket as the thumbnail. As soon as you do any kind of filtering, it randomly displays a new thumbnail from the stack. Not terrible bug, but annoying.View attached video for the behaviour. I use Windows 11, Latest edition og Bridge.

Hi. I have an issue with Photoshop (Mac OS Sequoia 15.6). My version 26.9.0 is not embedding the color profile as it should as i save the photo in webp file (Save As with option to embed color profile). When i see the file in Bridge it says "color profile untagged". It does not happen with tiff, png and jpeg files, just with webp.  

Bridge v15.1.0.625 does not show transparency on PSB (Photoshop large document format) files on thumbnails, even not after purging the cache for them. On PSD (Photoshop format) files it is shown as expected. The export works normally.

Slideshow stalls after three imagesBridge Version 15.11.729Windows 11 24H2 (I9 CPU and Nvidia RTX A4500 GPU)Bridge slideshow fails to work correctly (halts completely on the third image) and occasionally causes Bridge to crash in the following circumstances:The selected images are from a collection (smart or not)Images are selected by choosing a higher level folder and using View>Show Items from SubfoldersThis is not dependent upon the file type - tested with JPEG, DNG and TIFF nor the number of images.Slide duration, Caption, type of fill (Centred, Scaled to Fit, Scaled to Fill) Transition Options and Transition Speed do not seem to affect this issue for better or worse. Note that there is no problem with the slideshow displaying correctly when the images are from a single folder, regardless of the number of images in that folder or their type. First posted about this issue in Nov 2023 but did not receive a single response.NVIDIA GPU studio driver updated many times

Bridge suddenly crashed and will not completely start. Upon starting, an error message will show, then when I clear the error message, it crashes. Auto report is turned on, so hopefully the system information is somewhere in the Adobe troubleshooting system.I uninstalled and reinstalled, and this did not fix it. I uninstalled and rolled back a few times to different older versions, and this did not fix it.  Every time I chose to not carry over the old preferences, so there shouldn't be any old preference files, but I suspect a file somewhere has been corrupted and is not being cleared with a reinstall.Screenshots. After the reinstall, the. usual "What's New" pops up.  In behind is the error messageThis is the unhelpful error message. Clicking on OK clears the message and Bridge then crashes. 

After the latest update the loop/magnifing device in the preview panel is not working properly and appears fuzzy despite the actual file once opened and enlarged (ctrl +) is quite clear and in focus

I have a MacBook Pro (2021-version) M1-chip and 16Gb internal. Bridge 2023 (Cloud cc) doesn't see my network drives. But when I use Photoshop 2023, go to a network-NAS an sthen switch to Bridge ... Bridge sees the network. Howeven, Bridge can't open the network-nas (Synology ds418). Ans as result of that I can't use Bridge.Does anyone of you recognize this problem and if yes, what's a possible solution?

I was batch renaming about 1,200 photos. I manually moved all the photos in chronological order and assigned ratings...some photos had five-star ratings, and others had no ratings. During the batch rename process, Bridge started to act wonky, then the spinning pinwheel. Finally, Bridge crashed. After restarting Bridge, all my files were entirely out of order, and hundreds that previously had five stars now had no rating and vice versa. I noticed that many files had also been assigned a '(1)' ending and some a 'copy' ending. I retraced my steps and realized that I chose a three-digit numbering sequence in the batch rename settings (beginning with 001), but I had over 1,000 photos to batch rename. I think this is what caused the problem. If you've ever watched your finder folder during a batch rename, you will know that Bridge runs a script that maybe creates a copy of the file, then renames and reassigns metadata, etc. I think that my choosing a three-digit ending for a four-digit volum

I have recently changed from 2010 disk based versions of Photoshop, Bridge, Lightroom and Acrobat Pro to the Create Cloud versions.  Unfortunately, Adobe has destroyed the UI, usability and functionality of Acrobat Pro and Lightroom.  Great tools and functions from 2010 have disappeared in the 2023 versions.  The intuitive layouts of 2010 have disappeared in the 2023 versions. I am begging you, Adobe....... please do not destroy Bridge's UI and functionality.  Do not make changes to the UI that shift things around needlessly, do not hide tools within hard to find menus, do not remove functionality. There are some changes in the latest Bridge (compared to 2010) that have been useless.  Eg Metadata info in the Metadata panel has wastefully and unnecessarily been indented so the palette needs to be widened far more to be able to see the information.  Why do the indent?  There was NOTHING achieved by it. Another change in Bridge is that I c

I Updated LR, and the Mac OS (15.6) in the last few daysoptimized my catalog,restarted my computer and ran disc utilites.nothing works..this has been an ongoing issue, occasionally i have been able to upload images. last time someone told me to try an older version of LR and i got a bunch of images to upload, then updated my OS and and LR thinking it would all work with everything updated. No go. From the chat it told me to trun off the CPU thing, that did not help either. I am totally frustrated, the Z8 has been out for a couple of years, this should be solved by now. I did send crash reports the last time this happened, did not see any results from that. thanks

Or, "How many ways can you screw it up?" Let's look at some of the "enhancements" that Adobe has made from Bridge 2022 in Bridge 2023 (for Windows).Editing the description field. It USED to be that you could type [Ctrl] + [Enter] to commit a change. No more! Adobe has "improved" it by making it seemingly impossible to commit input via the keyboard, and making you move to the mouse (because evewybody likes mousies) and click on the tick icon near the bottom.Clipboard integration. What is going on with that? You can select a description or a set of keywords and bang away on [Ctrl]+[C] until your fingers bleed and it WILL NOT pick the content up into the clipboard. The only way it works is if you select Copy from the right click menu, because once again, evewybody likes mousies and this software wasn't designed, if I can use that word, for adults. This also results in a ridiculous number of visits from the incredibly annoying "Apply Metadata?" dialog, which you can tell Bridge not to

Adobe Bridge became an essential part of my workflow since version 1, but the current version, 15.1.0.635, is a complete bust. It crashes on the first or second click or access.I read some former community solutions and found that on a PC, going into the Roaming folder and deleting the Adobe Bridge and Bridge 2025 folders temporarily fixes the problem. Adobe, if you are listening, I hope this is a good as to the eventual fix.C:>Windows>Users(you)>AppData>Roaming>Adobe>Bridge and Bridge2025Thanks to those who know more than me,Joe

I'm a long time user of Adobe Bridge, basically since it first was introduced.  Over the last year I've run into a consistent problem with Bridge that is making it a big problem to use. And recently I found out a friend who teaches Photography at 2 high schools has been having the same issues. 1) If I have Bridge open to show the Photoshop files in a folder it often will not update and reflect new files. For instance if I save V1, V2 etc of a working file not all of those files will show up. The same thing happens when I add JPEGs to a folder of images I need to work on. The solution has been to quit and restart Bridge, which becomes a bit of a pain. (And yes, I can confirm the files are there by checking in the Finder.)2) Bridge frequently crashes. Quite often it's just random. I will have it open while working on a file in Photoshop etc and will see Bridge has crashed. Other times it's when do something like simply renaming a file. These behaviors have been p

This was working fine in hardware preview on Aug 12. Now on Aug 14, any attempt to preview a .mp4 file hangs the whole Bridge client requiring termination and restart. Other file previews are fine.No other system updates have been performed unless Adobe silently updated MediaCore etc in the last two days. Post-problem, updating to the latest Nvidia driver 580.97 did not fix. Only software rendering works as a workaround. 

When I start Bridge it takes at least 30 seconds before anything appears in the program - all of the side panels and main content panel are totally empty. When I click anywhere on the program during this time, the title bar changes to "Bridge (Not Responding)" and the cursor just spins - clicking anywhere again just turns the display light grey and produces a pop-up with 2 options - "close the program" or "wait for program to respond". This occurs whether Bridge opens in a totally empty folder or one containing over 500 RAW photos. My first thought was that the Bridge cache was either full or exceeded the allocated size, but compacting the cache, purging 100% previews in cache and purging all local cache files doesn't affect this behaviour. When Bridge is starting, the Windows Task Manager shows Bridge using 0% cpu, no disk activity, and program not responding.I always keep Bridge up to date, so has affected previous versions during the past 2-3 months but has now become

I use both Raw and Jpg files and Bridge will not recognize them on external dirves.  It displays the files on my main computer hard drive, but does not communicate with external drives.  Any suggestions?   [Note: I moved you to a new, separate thread as this is a different issue]

Hi,Bridge is the only place when I can`t preview HEVC files. AE and Premiere has no any problem (latest versions as Bridge).Windows Explorer has no any problem, too (K-lite pack). Is there any solution to preview HEVC clips in Bridge?Thanks,Adam

Bridge do not display HVEC (H256) video thumbnails, installed 3rd party (K-Lite) codecs etc, nothing worked up to now.Any ideas how to resolve, or if HVEC is not supported is there an alternative software to Bridge?

Hi Team,I am familiar with changing Tabs by simply hovering and spinning the Scrollwheel. This may be useful for some people. The way you hooked this up, however, leads to highly irritating context changes. Do the following:Open a few Content Tabs. Use visually similar items everywhere (here fashion images)Position your mouse cursor towards the top of one content tab and browseMove your mouse cursor up slightly and keep scrollingYour're now scrolling Content Tabs and have likely landed somewhere entirely differentOne can consider a few things given: When browsing content one will not always know where exactly the mouse cursor is, your mind is busy with other things. Folders of professional users will very often show similar content. Swapping tabs is very subtle – you will likely not even spot it in the attached gif. Please team, turn this switch Tabs by only hovering off by default! There are good reasons why changing tabs in web-browsers doesn't work like that. If you want t

On the daily I'm using the shortcuts to change a picture's star and I got tired of using ctrl+1/ctrl+2/ctrl+3 etc. So I wanted to change them to 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and remove the ctrl key all together. However, even after changing it, those keys still default to some kind of navigation actions.  I don't know if I set it up wrong or something.
