Bridge

Bridge version 12 will not let me save to the same directories I use with version 11.1.1 for downloading pictures from my camera.   Using Windows 11 now but same when I was running Windows 10, previously I just went back to the older version of Bridge hoping the problem would be resolved by the Windows upgrade or an Adobe fix, but no luck, still must use the older version to download my camera images.

Please help! I keep loosing my pictures. I do use all the most recent soft ware and have a new Imac so that would not be a problem. I also use bridge and photoshop. Everytime when I want to go back to older pictures that I have adjusted through camera raw and sometime through Photoshop I end up having .xmp files but NO PICTURES. What's going on? 

I have rcently upgraded to the latest version of Bridge (october 2021) whilst my export settings are all there in the box the app just stalls and will not export anything. There is the option to do similar in the workflow space (what is the point of this???) but I just want the old export panel to work again, any suggestions of what might be causing the issue with stalling?I'm on Big Sur BTW - all current.Thanks all

Since the latest update I download images via bridge and in the download screen there is a box to tick which opens bridge when download is finished. It used to do this but now doesn't. I spent over an hour with an advisor he took over my computer and not only failed to fix the problem but failed to understand what the problem was completely useless. There is also no way to contact anyone to find out what to do now. The phone line is never answered and there is no email. Any suggestions as to what I do now as I am paying for a service and it is not working and yet it used to?????

As shown bellow, I have 2 folders (the marked ones) which I want to copy and paste to the multiple other folders in the same time. Is there a way in adobe bridge to do this? 

Upgraded to Bridge 12 and after opening the file in the latest ACR to edit the file the stars stars on the edited files have disappeard when I go back into Bridger.  Bridge also 'may' be adding a green label to the file although that does not seem to be consistent.  I don't use labels very often so seeing one under the same circumstances as above made me wonder how it got there. Is this a bug or is there a setting I need to update? Thanks in advance, Shane

Asking for a friend, for real. I have a friend who just despondently threw away hours worth of a video shoot because it was blurry and unusable. He is experienced with photography but new to video editing. I was asking some questions about the footage to see if it may be salvageable. Because apparently, it was sharp and in focus at the shoot, on the camera screen. It wasn't till he got home and opened it on his computer that he discovered it was too blurry. I wondered if maybe he shot in 1080p but tried to view it in his editor enlarged in a 4K sequence or something, without realizing the mismatch. But he said no, he viewed the clips in Bridge. I use Pr and Ae mostly, but not Bridge much, so I'm not familiar with the way it previews video. Is there a possibility that somehow some video preview settings affected the quality of the video playback? Does Bridge allow one to choose the resolution or quality at which it previews video files? Is it possible that, with the wrong settings, a de

I have used Bridge for many years and only just started seeing this issue with the last update. If I minimize Bridge, or go to another program and come back, it autocollapses all my panels, leaving only the content panel open. Then I have to manually hunt down and drag or double-click out the hot edges to get the panels back. I get everything set up, then have to go do something else and when I come back I have to set the panels up all over again. I HATE this. It is SO annoying...I have a saved custom workspace, and have gone through all of the preferences and view and window settings and there is nothing to indicate whether you are okay with this autocollpasing behavior, so apparently no way to get rid of it. Am I missing something? Please somebody tell me this is not a "feature" now. {Thread renamed by moderator}

I'm using Bridge and Photoshop but my pictures keep disappearing in Bridge. Where are they? 

Using Bridge 12.0 cannot use any of the photoshop functions under tools/ photoshop /  a message "install latest version of photoshop"appears. Using latest photoshop 23.0 Anone else having this problem?Marc

As long as I can remember (which is a long time), Bridge has forced re-caching of its thumbnails every time a new version of Camera Raw is installed. I just installed 2018 and here we go again.I've participated in numerous forum discussions over the years, provided ample evidence of the issue, yet Adobe still can't seem to get it. And it seems like a simple problem with an easy solution. I've got over 30,000 images in folders, 100 to 500 images per folder. I "Export Cache to Folders" and keep the main cache size small. So, when I navigate to a folder, Bridge copies the folder cache to the main cache and displays the thumbs. That's very quick. Unless Bridge decides the cache thumbs are "out-of-date", in which case it scans all the main images to rebuild thumbs. That's very slow and gives sluggish performance - from 2 to 5 minutes depending on folder size and image type (raw files take much longer). Many hours over many weeks as I browse my 30,000 images.Why does Bridge decide the thumbs

When in Bridge and selecting Desktop, no files are present.  I go to view and click "view subfolders" (Which I shouldn't have to do everytime), only some or no files show up.  

Hey Folks,My normal photography workflow consists of timesyncing in Bridge, and doing the bulk ofmy photographic toning/contrast etc in Adobe Camera. When I'm done I batch rename everything so it stays time synced. When I rename the .CR2 file the match .XMP file also gets renamed so they stay linked and my edits remain on the renamed file.Now with the new masking option in Bridge 2022, the program is creating an additional .ACR file in addition to the .XMP file but the issue is when I rename my file only the .XMP file gets renamed, not the .ACR file, so I lose all of the masked edits I've done.Any way to automatically rename the .ACR files so that they stay linked to the original .CR2 + .XML files?

Hope someone can advise - I'm trying to copy off photos and videos from my iPhone 7 Plus onto my PC (Windows 10). I'm using the latest version of Bridge. The first time I tried, it stalled 60% through processing, giving me the error message seen above.  I came to the community to see others had a similar problem so tried the suggestions of resetting preferences/clearing caches etc. Rebooted the PC and had another go and it stalled at exactly the same place, on the 7946th file processed.  Can anyone suggest what the issue might be? My iPhone is connected properly, so it's charging at the same time. My PC refuses to recognise my iPhone as a device to download the files through Windows' Photo Downloader or pull them out through File Explorer, so I thought Bridge was going to be my saviour.... And in a related issue, Bridge refuses to recognise my husband's iPhone 7 when it's plugged in. Why might that be when it recognises mine? Any help/advice would be

i am trying to view my photos in bridge but the white icon for the photo is all that shows. it's driving me nuts and i have to get this work out. how does one fix this

Bridge Version 12.0.0.234Windows 10 21H1Does anybody know how to type in directly accented letters when creating new Bridge keywords using a UK style keyboard?e.g. Càrn Mòr Dearg ArêteThe familiar key combinations which work with Microsoft Office Apps do not function in Bridge (they don't work here either!) or at least I can't get them to work. I am left typing what I require in a Microsoft Word document then copying and pasting to Bridge, a convoluted process!

Why is the resolution not displayed in the Bridge for .mov-videos but it is in Lightroom? See pictures! Thanks for quick help, Tobias

Please watch this short video.http://www.netbookphotos.com/outgoingfiles/AdobeBridgeWipeKeywords.mov In the first 18 seconds you can see me add keywords, and up the top right side of the screen you can see more and more keyword being added to the metadata. Then I select 'high school student,' and all the keywords entered previously are now wiped.  I have no understanding of why this is happening. If I repreat the exact same steps, it won't happen again. So I never know when the keywords will get wiped. Even when I'm working on keyword on hundreds of files, I never know which images will trigger this problem. It is always random. I'm using bridge 2020, I've downloaded 2019 and I saw the same problem there. I'm about to re-download bridge cs5 to see if it also happens there.  Edit1Also this bug in Bridge will erase the 'date created' info from the metadata as well, also on random files. I never know which ones it will happen to. Not sure what else in the met

Dear all,Would you know what could the issue be?I am trying to use Adobe Bridge to download Canon R5 files to my SSD.I can see this files when I go direct to the CFExpress B from my computer, but this card is not visible for Adobe Bridge 2022. SYSTEM: Mac OS Big Sur 11.3Camera: Canon EOS R5Adobe Bridge 2022CFExpress B Prograde

Hello! I've recently begun using Bridge, and thumbnails are not generating for (most) of my video clips. They do generate for photos and other graphics (ai. etc). Screenshot attached from my user->movies folder where only one thumbnail is generated. There's nothing fundamentally different about that particular file as far as I know. It's 35mb and there are other mp4s that are smaller and larger. Most other folders elsewhere on the computer don't generate thumbnails either. The desktop shows them, but if I move more mp4s onto the desktop, they don't generate. Steps taken so far to troubleshoot:Purged Caches in BridgeReset Preferences on Bridge, Premiere.Reinstalled Bridge and Camera RawMoved location of Bridge media cache Increased thumbnail cache limit (many of the video files are well below 1000mb anyway)Refreshed folders (F5) Specs:2017 iMac 3.8ghz quadcore i5, 24gb RAM. 8gb radeon, OS 11.6Bridge v12 (also didn't work on previous version) I'm at a loss, any sug

Ich habe ein seltsames Problem mit adobe bridge.Bridge zeigt keine Ordnerinhalte mehr an. Lösen lässt sich das Problem kurzfristig durch eine Deinstallation un Neuinstallation. Sobalt ich einen bestimmten Ordner aufrufe kann Bridge die Inhalte dieses Ordners nicht mehr anzeigen und als folge bleiben die Inhalte aller (!!!) anderen Server/Ordner unsichtbar. Und täglich grüßt das Murmeltier: Deinstallation/Installation und alles wieder von vorn. Desweiteren lässt sich die Bridge nicht mehr schließen, außer mit command/alt/esc...Betriebssystem BigSur 11.6Kennt irgendjemand ein ähnliches Problem und kennt Lösungen?

If I open a .dmg file with folders within it - the latest version of Bridge will show *some* but not all of the folders on the disk image. Does anyone have a fix for this?

Bridge CC on my Mac (latest OSX) is not listing external drives in Folder panel after Bridge update. If I search for a file that I know is on the external drive then Bridge will display the thumbnail for that file.

It seems many people work with photos on an external hard drive. Why use an external hard drive instead of keeping the photos on the PC or Mac? Is the reason just about the size of the photo library?I have been using Bridge and Adobe Photoshop Elements 19 to work with scanned geneaolgy photos on a Windows PC.

Bridge 10.0.4I have read the posts that are relevant and reinstalled Bridge, rebooted the computer, checked Privacy settings, removed external drives. Bridge still gives continual error messages as soon as it is started. Any assistance greatly appreciated...
