I’ve been comparing the new Bridge 14.0 to 12.0.4 and like version 13, it still isn’t in a usable state for getting work done. •Folder Panel: The new smooth scrolling for the folders panel is awesome, except it’s around twice as slow as the system scrolling speed so it’s time consuming scrolling a lot of folders. •Content Panel: Similar to v12 the archaic stepped scrolling for the content panel is around 2-4x faster than the system speed. •Content Panel: For v14 file names in the content panel now get truncated to the point of uselessness. If the file name doesn’t fit in the tile space then you’re left with only the first character of the name. In v12 it would truncate the middle of the text so you could still see the most important parts of the file name. •Preview Panel: For v14 the file names in the preview panel get truncated near the beginning instead of in the middle like v12 potentially hiding important text. •Preview Panel: Similar to v12 the file name g
In the Content panel, the thumbnail of MOV files is blue/purple.See the attached screenshot.
Once I starting using a CFexpress Type-B card after a Nikon D850 Firmware update, I've noticed that when I upload new files via Bridge, not all of the files are being read.As an example, I shot 32 images this morning, but when I began uploading via Bridge, it read only 22.I have my Bridge programed to open up the Photo Downloader when I begin the process.But, when I open Photo Downloader first, then Bridge, all of the files I shot are correctly read. Has anyone else have/had this problem? Is there anything that can be done to sort this out?
I have an iMac running Monterey (12.6.8) and when I try to use photo downloader to download images from my CFExpress card I am getting "No Device Found". It works fine with my XQD card in the same drive (the drive reads both types of cards). I can browse thru finder and copy the files manually no problem but I would like to have the photo downloader functionality because I use it to convert filenames, types, and add meta information. And although I've tried to just create presets to do the same function, oddly enough some of the same tasks I can do with photo downloader can't be done with presets. I have also tried with the latest Beta of bridge and receive the same results.
Hi EveryoneI'm experiencing severe issues with Bridge/Get Images from Camera. This is using an iMax 27' with plenty of processing power/64Gb RAM.Here is what is occurring using Bridge and their “Get Images from camera” app.The Get Images sees the card reader/card but fails to recognise correctly the number of images. It stops on 3 and waits to confirm copying. One has to repeatedly force “Refresh” to get the accurate number – I mean 7 or 8 times or more.Once one gets the correct total, copying starts but is way too slow. I left the computer and came back 30 minutes later and it hadn’t finished copying the 2042 images.The whole process stopped and froze at 60% and then eventually returned to Bridge.I've worked through the isssue with Adobe but without any resolution. Is it a problem related to ProGrade?Brian
Adobe Bridge photo downloader no longer works with my CFExpress Type B cards since the update to 2023. It also doesn't show the card as a source in the drop down list. When Windows 11 tries to autoplay I get an error message "Application not found".It worked fine in the previous verions of Bridge.The SD card works, and so does plugging in the camera via USB.
Insert CFexpress card into reader, nothing happens, image downloader ignores new card. Windows 11 Pro build 22621
Does anyone know how to get the Photo Downloader to see the Sandisk CFexpress type B card reader with a Sony CFexpress card? Both Adobe Bridge and LR Clasic see the card reader and card, and can access it. iMac 2012 running Catalina 10.15.6 Is this anything that can be fixed on my end? If not, where do I submit a bug report? Thanks.
Using my usual workflow with Bridge Photo Downloader (version 10.0.4.157), I am unable to download images from a Sandisk 64gb CFExpress card via the card reader to an iMac Pro (mac os Catalina):Adobe Bridge .> File > Get Photos From Camera > No Device Found > Refessh > No Device Found.The CFExpress card reader hardware, with the CFExpress card inserted, is recognised by my computer (Applications >Utilities >System Information > Hardware >USB) as 'Sandisk SDDR-F451'. The CFExpress card is mounted in the Finder as an exterrnal drive (EOS_Digital). The images on the card are available (EOS_Digital >DCIM > images.CR3) and may be directly transferred by drag and drop onto the computer desktop or into an appropriate folder. If the camera, containing the Sandisk CFExpress card is attached directly to the computer via a USB3.1 cable, the images on the card can be transferred using Adobe Bridge Photo Downloader into a selected folder
Since downloading Bridge 2023 update the automatic Photo Downloader has an error message of F:/Application not found. I have a feeling I did the wrong thing and deleted the previous versions of Bridge before downloading the current version. I think that Bridge is trying to search for the downloader application from the F: (card reader) drive rather than where Bridge itself is stored i.e. the C: drive. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Sorry = photography is my thing and not computers yikes.
Hi,I have the following problem:- the cfexpress card is not recognized as a drive by adobe bridgeI cannot import pictures from the cfxpress card with adobe bridge, the cfxpress card is displayed as a drive in the exploer, the pictures are available.System:- Adobe CC 2021- win 10- Sandsik cfexpress reader- wise 128 GB cfxpress card... the problem is only with cfxpress, all other formats work.

Hello Adobe, the year is 2024 and the import of image files in Bridge still does not work via a CF Express card.Why is that? Please be so kind and inform.Thanks an best regardsMartin
Photodownloader (PD) is acting weird with CFExpress & SD/UHS memory cards from a Prograde PG 5.5 card reader (while other memory cards are working normally).PD is recognizing memory card in reader, opening with previous settings of a download, however you cannot select another location folder to download to ((sub))folders are not shown), nor you can select other options like avanced renaming etc. If you hit download it does nothing (no download) or it shows error 0x0000005. Very occasionally it does work, but then next reboot it is not anymore. This is not specific to latest version of Bridge; happen with previous (sub) versions as well. Download of mediafiles using Windows 10 explorer instead works fine without any issue. Again, using other hispeed usb memory card readers, also on same USB connection, works fine. Any help, support or suggestions appreciated.Computer is Windows 10 Pro ASUS Zenith II Extreme Alpha, Prograde connected via USB 3.2 (Gen
Cannot get Photo Downloader to see me CFExpress Card with Bridge 2020, 2021, and 2022. Adobe has not resolved. Works fine if loaded through LR.
Just started using camera with CFexpress card, and found I can not download Cfxepress card via Bridge (unlike SD or CF cards). It apears that Adobe bridge does not recognice CFExpress card as a removable card.And aprrently, it is not an unknown issue! Whan is Abobe Bridge planing to resolve this prtoblem?
Since version 15.1.1.729 I cannot dowlload files using Bridge. My memory card does not show up at all under the "get photos from camera". Win10 file explorer does, however see the card and files on it. Is there a fix to this? Thanks, Ed
I installed Bridge 13 today and now Bridge will not recognize my CF card with Z9 files.. Unistalled 13 and reinstalled 12 and works again. Anyone else have the same problem?
Does this latest version resolve the Sandisk CFexpress reader problem. I am reluctant to upgrade just in case there is still a problem. I am currently using 14.0.2.191.
Since April 2021, have not been able to use Photodownloader in Bridge with my new CFExpress card. It does not detect it. It does detect and function with SD card from same camera and card reader. The CFExpress card is on the desk top. Adobe has not been able to resolve despite numerous calls and attempts. Anyone else having this isssue. Using a work around by directly copying from card to file but it does not convert to DNG as I prefer.
Feature Request: Add Watermarking Natively to BridgeI’d love to see watermarking added as a native option in Adobe Bridge’s Export panel, similar to what Lightroom offers. This would be an excellent function to add to Custom Workflows. When I saw Workflow builder get added to Bridge I assumed the ability to add watermarks was added or coming. Why this matters:Lightroom’s watermark feature is excellent for quick branding during export. Bringing that functionality to Bridge and possibly Camera Raw's export panel would make batch workflows far more efficient.Many of us use Bridge + ACR for culling, edits and batch processing, and having watermarking built in would eliminate the need for Photoshop actions or external scripts.Suggested Enhancements:Support both text and image watermarks (PNG with transparency).Position presets (corners, center), opacity, and scale relative to image size.Ability to save watermark presets and include them in export presets.Be able to preview the wat
I can't believe I have paid for many hours and I have a Dell XPS laptop that had 32gb memory and ran Bridge. Now I have a Dell XPS laptop that has 32gb memory and Bridge won't run because the new AMD snapdragon does not run it. And no mention until I had already bought.
Video files show no thumbnails in Adobe Bridge on my new Mac mini, (Goldengate 27.01) while photo thumbnails display normally. The same video files, on the same NAS, or on local desktop show thumbnails correctly in Bridge on an Intel iMac and on a Windows PC.SystemMac: Mac mini [M 6, [24 MB], macOS [Goldengate 27.01] Bridge: [16.0.x]. I also tried v15.x.x with the same result. Other Adobe apps installed: Photoshop, Media Encoder Files are on the Mac drive as well as the office NAS connected over wired Ethernet (SMB).

Update Bridge so that it will work with the kind of SMB/Network storage most professionals use.For YEARS users have leaned on Bridge to browse and manage files that are stored on network shares. A lot of the time it just works. Until it doesn’t. When people look for support, the answer is always the same: “Bridge was never designed for use with network shares.”Bridge was “designed” 21 years ago. We’re on version 16. It went through some huge growing pains when transitioned to Apple Silicon native. Of course in 2005 Bridge was not designed to work on ARM processors. Yet, here we are.There are HUNDREDS of questions about network shares on this forum alone, going back at least 15 years. People end up here, because nowhere in Adobe’s documentation for Bridge is this confounding limitation mentioned. In the year 2026, why wouldn’t users assume that Bridge simply works like modern software should.If Bridge is somehow network crippled due to its 21 year old “design”, then why not make a new a
