Bridge

Hey all, after collaborating on creating assets our team has realized it would have been ideal to be consistent with file name Case Usage (DOH). Is there a way to batch rename to 'Sentence or Lower Case? Thanks in advance! JA

Having a lot of trouble with camera raw today... Whenever I try to open an image in Bridge, it will freeze and nonthing will happen. Just hangs indefninately. jpeg, png, raw image format (.NEF), nothing will open in camera raw. Never crashes either, just frozen. Files are stored on a local drive, not a network. Alternatively, I if try to right click a image and open with photoshop, same issue still arises. Just hangs. Nothing happens, never crashes. Dragging an dropping an image from bridge or even directly from file explorer into photoshop won't work either. Anything to do with camera raw doesn't work, it seems. Only way to close bridge is with task manager. What i've tried I've tried clearing the cache, reducing thumbnail file size to 100mb, good ol' rebooting, reinstalling bridge & photoshop, reinstalling camera raw, reinstalling GPU drivers (I run a GTX 1070), disabling hardware acceleration. Nothing helps. All my software and OS are up to date, otherwi

Hello, is there a renaming procedure for having first letters capitalized?Thanks

Hello.Since few weeks ago, Adobe Bridge has started crashing when selectiong batch rename function.

I do my raw developing in LR, then close it down and use Bridge 9.1 for organizing and previewing files, then opening them up in PS. Once I close LR and go back to Bridge, I see that the thumbnails repopulate to show the edits I made in LR. All of a sudden today, the thumbnails are not updating. Not only that, when I open the images in PS RAW, the updates aren't showing there either! As a test, I opended Bridge 8 and the thumbs are all updated. I tried restarting all the programs as well as my computer, and the thumbs just will not update in Bridge 9. Help please!

Quite a while Bridge ( also the previous releases) keeps giving me the trouble of not opening all my directories on my Windows 10 PC.I have to startup the program 2 or 3 times to get access to all my directories.When I close the program, I also get the message that Bridge is trying to recover but this process never ends.Several attempts are already done by Microsoft by means of sending an auto generated report to Microsoft about that problem, but I never get an answer about a possible solution.Is there a work around to get rid of this annoying issue?Are there more customers with this same issue? I am curious about how to get rid of this phenomenon. 

I have 10 family photos a day, the pictures are in a "raw" folder. I give these out to the families for selection one by one via the pic-time.com web gallery. The selected pictures are marked in the web gallery in the gallery and when they are done, they click on the "Send to photographer" button. Then I get an email that a family has finished sorting. By going to the administration interface, I can download the list as a csv file, but there is also an option called "Copy for Lightroom". The filenames of the selected files will then be placed on the clipboard without extensions (e.g.: "DSC_6918,DSC_6949,DSC_6970"), and the selected files will appear when pasted into Lightroom's search field. My question is, can Bridge also do this? I can search for one file at a time, but only if I add new search lines. But this is a lot of work, I want to paste my list and the found files e.g. copy to a separate folder. What do you think?

I want to batch rename a bunch of files (or possibly folders) with the sequence 'name_AA, name_AB... name_BA, name_BB, name_BC' etc.using letter sequence bridge starts with single letters then moves to doubles. Is there any way of doing double letters from the start, as there is with number sequence?

Is there a way for that? I would like to avoid using a mouse.

Hallo,Adobe Bridge crashes daily on my MacStudio (M1 Max, MacOS Ventura 13.6.1) - The system has no memory. Why uses Bridge 178 GB of memory?My system stops running - the only solution ist to quit Bridge: Thank you for help - Greetings from Germany.Dominik

Can anyone pleeeeese tell me how I can import / display iPhone photos into Bridge?When I connect the phone, I can see a list of pics and they display as PS icons but not thumbnails. They won't open if clicked on, also if I view in another format (list I think? ) I see the image PS icons, but they all say 0 bytes.This is the same when using an Andriod phone for images.Any suggestions?

BugsThe panel does not scale with many conditions entered, see attached screenshot.Bridge cannot handle lots of filter-conditions in Smart CollectionsI tried filtering out terms which contain the strings x1, x2 – up to x9.  Bridge showed me the unfiltered result and didn't pop up a toast message, that it failed. If you have that toast feature, please use it 🙂.I noticed that there's a limitation for filter conditions of 10. Not sure whether this is intended.Wish:You offer regular expressions in File Renaming. Please also make it available in Search / Smart Collections. Of course, in my x1- x9 sample I would have preferred to input more precisely what I want to forbid (\d+x\d+). Your current GUI does not allow me this query. 

My company forced an "upgrade" from MacOS Ventura to Sonoma and now Bridge 2021 (v 11.1.4) doesn't load correctly. The app opens but is mostly a white screen with a few boxes showing the correct background color (see attached). The thing is: I discoved that the app seems to be functioning correctly, I can navigate blindly by clicking in the navigator portion of the screen and if I double click in the correct place it will display the rename input (2nd image). I can do pretty much anything in the app if I know where to click, so it seems to be just a simple visual issue.The obvious solution to this is to just upgrade to the latest version of Bridge, but I can't really do that because in v13+ the color schemes changed to only high-contrast, migraine-inducing options (literally, I have astigmatism and the high-contrast themes give me headaches), and v12, which has a lower contrast theme, only works with Photoshop 2022, and that is no longer listed in the 'Other Versions' options on CC Man

I have been making Panoramas for years using Bridge and Photoshop to finish off. Highlight images - Tools- Photoshop- Photomerge. But it now asks me to install the latest version of Photoshop to continue, but I have done this and am on the latest version., not letting me go any further.

here is the correct window in Bridge 2024.    MAC OS Ventura 13.6.1then i clicked on another keyword from the right keyword panel and all keywords in the middle panel went blanki quit Brdige and reopened  same problem. Restarted computer, same problem. Same problem occurs in all of my workspaces. I can't go though refresh, reselect, select one keyword and go through all that over and over.    

when I used all other previous versions of Bridge, on my 27" iMac 2012 (32 gig 1Tb High Sierra) I could open as many windows as I liked. Usually2 to 3, as I often used it to sort my PSD's etc. and look for multiple images.. (have 250,000+ Posters). It was so great a tool, that I actually gave 1 hours lectures on it at computer clubs. (lost that computer after the Feb 2022 floods, when it simply fused when I plugged it back in after. then got a 8Gig M1 imac. (biggest I could buy in Feb) Now the Bridge 2023 will only let me open on window.  that is a load of @$% to me.. it is a deal breaker... and I want to re install Bridge 2022, but I cant find out where I do that... anyone know how.? regards, Sandy

I often need to look at details between images in Review Mode to assign ratings, select/discard images, etc.  It would be helpful to be able to load the images at 100% magnification and then pan around the images in Review Mode to be able to see those details and make decisions.  I find the loupe cumbersome to use for this.  It would be much better to be able to view the entire image at full size and then just move around it in the open image window.

if I rename a file on the desktop it is not updated within bridge. the refresh is also delayed by several minutes. Solutions?

Goodmorning,How do I fix this? Anyone...

Hello, I just updated to Adobe Bridge 2023. When I want to delete images (and not only reject them), I always used the shortcut  Control+delete. But in the Bridge 2023, that  only works fine in the full image preview. It does not work anymore in the overviews of the workspaces like like library view, lighttable view and so on. My system:- Windows 11, latest version- Adobe Bridge 2023, lateste version RegardsAnja

I have a PC running Windows 11 22H2 and have Bridge 14.01.137. installed. Camera - Nikon Z8 The Photo Downloader cannot detect a device despite the fact that Windows and Lightroom can both see it without any issues. I'm using a CF Express/SDXC USB 3 card reader.Does anyone know how I might persuade Bridge to access the card reader? I've tried an older SD USB 2 card reader and that isn't detected by the Bridge Photo Downloader either. Thanks

Please, make LABELS and RATINGS work again, as before!1. The colour labels of labeled photographs/images should be visible in the overview row again.2. Ratings ***** should be visible in the pull-down-/drop-down menu if right mouse click is usedIf there is a possibility to change this in the settings, please let me know.Mac Studio 2022 M1 Max, Ventura 13.0.1.Adobe Bridge German language, 14.0.1.137Great, if this could be done before X-Mas (2023). Thanks! 😉

My team uses InDesign to create proposals for our company. We have an InDesign template that we all start with that has commonly used pages and layouts to customize.  We are trying to find a process to streamline the proposal creation, including a way to search for proposal pages by tag or keyword (for example, someone created a page about our DEI initiatives but it's not in our main template. They could search "DEI" and find pages created that are tagged with the DEI tag, select it and bring it into their document).  I have played around in the Bridge a bit but a lot of what I am seeing is targeted towards photography and photo assets so I am struggling to see how it may apply to our needs.  I did notice that if place a file from the bridge into a file, it places as a static image, not an editable design. Is that the only way?  If anyone has experience using Bridge as this sort of proposal content management, I'd love to hear how you do it.&nbsp

Recently updated my Bridge version. However seems that after processing one or two files in Photoshop and saving files as *.psb, returning to Bridge the thumbnails do not show for the newest saved files (psb).
