After effects error can't import file alternating characters in.ffx unsupported file type or extension. I am trying to use Bridge to apply effects in my text it worked normally, however after upgrading to After Effect version 23.1 it stops working.I am using Bridge 13.0.1 Checking forums they mentioned that the error can be solved by* Reinstalling Bridge - did not work* Selecting the effect directly in After Effects Animation presets, it applies the effect but I need to select it from Bridge as expected.* Going to menu Animation / Apply Animation preset and browse for the needed effect, once again it works but it is manual and I need to apply from Bridge. 

I would like to create a contact sheet of multiple images in the Adobe Bridge output section, but I am facing the problem that don't know how to make that all images have no separation spaces between them of any kind ( setting the margin to 0 is possible) but every image has a different aspect ratio so if I maintain that ratio gaps will be shown among the cells. I do want to fill those gaps and that means that there should be an option to fill the cell with the image even if a little part of the thumbnail image is cropped (at the top ,bottom or laterals) I want all the images next to each other without any space between them. Is this possible with Bridge. Is there any software if not where I could accomplish this? Thank you.

Hi there, I'm going to post something here because i care about other users. Normally i would wait until someone else post this and see a evasive answer marked as correct answer.  Anywho, Does anyone know how to use the background export so i can continue in Bridge while I’m exporting? @adobe team, please bring back the option to use more windows instead of tabs. 

I'd like to delete in Bridge and that also deletes the file in the Windows folder.. is this possible? Helps a lot in organising files.Thanks for your help.

Is there a temporary option to disable thumbnails while navigating through certain folders?  For example, after I render out a few versions of an animation in a .png sequence where the frame numbers go into the thousands, it would be great to be able to toggle thumbnail preview on or off so I'm not freezing my machine for a few minutes everytime I click into a newly created folder with an animated sequence.  Does such an option exist?(Like the detail view in file explorer on windows)Otherwise I enjoy thumbnails most other times so I don't want to necessarily change the settings across all folders.Any help would be appreciated!

Bridge is not reading 3 of my external hard drives.  In the screenshot, only the first drive is being read in Bridge.  File Explorer is showing that the G drive has a folder (with subfolders and files) but the G drive in Bridge, selected, shows no folders or files. Same for the F and H drives.  Why is this?  Thanks.    

This has been happening for several releases now. I used to use this short cut to rotate images, but now it just locks Bridge up.

I am going through older shoots and found several "reject" files that I decided are not rejects.Now the problem: you can reject a file, but you cannot remove the "reject" label."No label" does not work, you cannot apply a star to it. I researched online before posting here.This is silly. For ten years you have not been able to remove a "reject" label - and still no solution?Some people even bought an exif tool to clean out the reject label. Silly to the power of 2.So is there a way to remove the silly reject label?

Hello, how to turn off auto previews with lens profile in adobe bridge? I shoot mostly with fisheye lenses and I need to see previews of photos in their original state without profile correction in Adobe Bridge. Generating previews with a lens profile is an unnecessary waste of time, clarity and load on the processor. Is there a way to turn it off?

It is very annoyingThanksCesare

Après avoir essayé la dernière version de Photoshop éléments (2023) je l'ai désinstallé...Ensuite je me suis remis au travail dans Bridge et après avoir selectionné une photo j'ai voulu l'ouvrir par la commande "Ouvrir avec" vers photoshop élément 2022..., et là : message d'erreur ci-dessous :Qui pourrait m'aider à rétablir le lien entre Bridge et Photoshop elements 20220comme je l'avais avant d'essayer la V.2023 (ça m'apprendra à vouloir essager un nouveau produit ADOBE, je le regrette amerrement).  JLS.

Hi, Windows system.  New bridge can only access 2 of the 4 external drives. It started with the new version and still happens with the updated latest version.  Old bridge 2022 works just fine.  It doesn't look like anyone else is having this issue? I keep trying to use new version but it is so problematic I go back to the old version.  

Hi -Operating on Mac OS 12.6, I upgraded to Bridge 2023 and I am no longer able to download photos via Bridge Photo Downloader. When I select "Get Photos from Camera, it recognized my iPhone, but states "No Valid Files Found".  Up until this upghrade, I could use the "Get Photos from Device", which worked perfectly. Now, that menu line item is no longer an option (unless it moved and I cannot find it).  Any assistance would be appreciated. Z

About a month ago Bridge Downloader stopped recognizing and downloading certain files from my memory card. I've tried various cards and cards readers. I even tried inserting the card directly into the iMac slot. It happens with sd cards or CF cards.Initially when inserting the card it will see a small fraction of the files. For instance I had over 500 CR2 files on my card and the downloader only saw 17. After refreshing it saw a little over 300. I can see and download all of the files in the FinderAnother issue with Bridge I have been having is that adjustments made in Bridge are not saved when loading files as layers in Photoshop. I've tried all of the typical things to repair this but nothing works. I reset the preferences, uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge and tried various versions. Over the years I've developed a workflow using Bridge everyday for my work and this issue is really slowing me down. I've even gotten to the point where I am searching for an alternative soft

Is it too much to ask Adobe to include a feature that allows people to create folders (even top-level folders, not necessarily nested folders) for keeping Collections and Smart Collections organized in Bridge.  This is one area that programs like Lightroom excel (where you can create a folder structure to keep your Collections organized) but Bridge lacks (I know that Collections and Smart Collections are more or less file lists and queries stored in a file, but it would be nice if Bridge could either support the creation of Top-level Folders or be able to traverse a folder structure for the sake of Collections, rather than forcing people to just have a long list of Collections and Smart Collections.

Hello folks,I have bridge 2023, and then click on an image in Windows Explorer, it opens the image in Bridge, but if I click another image in windows explorer while the bridge is open, the new image doesn't show up, I have to close the bridge and click on the image to get it open in Bridge. How to solve this issue? ThanksBiju

Hello, I have an issue with Bridge 2020 that I did not have with the 2018 version.  I want to rename a photo just with a space bar. It worked before but not the 2020 version. Is there a solution? Thank you 

why my images dont uploade? i cant work with this app. Fix it pls

I have two PCs: old with Bridge 2018, that is works good and smooth even if it's running on older PC.And new latest Bridge 2023 on new fast PC, that is not smooth ang glitchy on scrolling. And I'm asking why. I prefer filmstip workflow with horizonlal scrolling. First: I don't see arrows for scrolling, I can scroll only by mouse wheel or by slider. Second: mouse wheel scrolling is not smooth, not intuitive, it's a bad scrolling. I want to see scrolling like in web browser: smooth and responsive. But Bridge 2023 is not smooth. Even more, when I drag slider my mouse, sometimes it's not smooth again, it's jumping. Any changes in settings for mouse in Windows 11 don't have effect on Bridge work. When Bridge 2023 is normal? When there are about 300 RAW files in folder, then it's ok, not difficult to navigate. But if I have 3000 RAW files in folder then it's glitchy. I'm using strong PC and sure it can't be just problem that there is not enough computing power.

(I tried the contact option via the Creative Cloud but the virtual reponese were   not helpful.) Adobe Bridge v13.0.1 BUG as of December 15, 2022  (Updated on my system December 14, 2022)PSD files: Changes made in Photo Shop are not showing up in Adobe Bridge. The corrected version is visible in the preview window, but the preview bar shows only the previous versionJpgs: Once saved in Photoshop, they are not showing up in the preview bar.  I have had to refresh by opening another gallery and then returning to the one affected.Labels: When labelling files, they do not all show up when that label is selected. Example: Chosend PSD and Jpg files were labelled with the Review colour blue. When that colour, jpg and PSD were selected to view, not all files appeared in the Adobe Bridge preview bar. Photoshop v 25.5.3Photoshop Paint Bucket- Not working as previously. Colour now changes by selecting a colour and not by using the bucket tool.

Bug problem when moving through the different folders of file with the arrows of the keyboard.  

Hey ,  I forgot to only select the dng files in a folder. Now I have mixed selection. Some are JPG some are DNG. How can I make a selection so that the selected JPG show up with the DNG files so I can give those (DNG) a rating and erase the rating of the jpgs.  This happens quite some time to me and I guess I am not the only one.  It would be so helpfull if you could sift the selection with a better tool.  When I used to work on avid we could ad such statements to a folder so that I could add and remove several kind of paremeters to a "BIN" "Folder".  And if there is another way of doing this I would love to know how.  thanxs  Peter
