Bridge

I'd like to tag my assets with custom strings, but navigating to Metadata > IPTC Core > Keywords field every time to add a new field or to delete the many existing fields of bought assets is a bit of a hassle.I can't see the "new keyword" menu that in mentioned in this tutorial:How to use keywords in Adobe BridgeIs there any simple tagging functionality that wouldn't force me to delete all keywords of the bought assets, and would make it easier to add my custom tags to the assets?I want to use tagging to skip creating folders.  

Dear All,I was reading that Adobe Bridge 2022 is now free for all. I a DAM Specialist and want to start using bridge for my asset management. what does the free version offers (For example, bulk editing metadata of RAW and Edited Footage and stills? bulk renaming?)and what does the paid version offers in terms of Media Management?Thanks!

I recently switched from Mac to PC and did a fresh install of Photoshop and Bridge. I'm finding that Bridge is now slower than it was on my Mac even though the PC is a much more powerful computer. Photoshop itself works a good deal better now but not Bridge. I'm having to wait for it to generate thumbnails even on folders I've already opened and looked at in bridge and it's not quick to do so. Also, when I try to move images and folders around in bridge, it is also slow. Much slower than when moving folders in the Windows 10 file manager. It will also leave the file names of folders in place that have been deleted until I quit and reopen Bridge.I suspect all of this is just a settings thing. My computer is....i7 gen 8 processor64 GB ramAll solid state stroage8 GB graphics cardAlmost all horsepower can go to Bridge and Photoshop.Hope someone can recommend some settings that will fix this problem.Thanks!

Previously I made an MP4 video from a selected group of images.  I need to do it again but can't figure out how I did it.  Any help, please?

After todays update of photoshop to 23.5.1 the function "open in camera raw" of one or several files from bridge (context menu) is disabled - does not work any anymore with the message raw editing is not activated. According to forums this happened often in the past but the usual work arounds do not help (starting photoshop first and so on).Going back to 23.5.0 did not help. Reinstalling camera raw did not help ... So is there a solution?Opening raw files by "open" works (but with the nagging message "do you really want ...") - the message does not appear when opening several raw files with "open with camera raw" - so I prefer that. But this does not work any more ...

It's much easier to drag and drop items than to copy paste them, so dual pane mode (or even 3, 4, x, multi  pane mode) would be very useful for Adobe Bridge.Like Total Commander, Midnight Commander, FileZilla etc. has the feature.Couldn't find a way to open 2 different content panels for drag-and-dropping.

Is it possible to open two Bridge windows (or instances) or have two Content tabs open simultaneously? I often alternate between a couple projects or more and it would make life much easier if I didn't have to ... well, I suppose I could create tons of "favorites" but, honestly, then there would either be a ton of them and/or I'd have to change them so frequently and ... okay these are definitely First World Problems, but still ... 

I use bridge to catalog images, once I'm done I then edit most of my images via Camera raw, opening camera raw for raw files via bridge "COMMAND R" gives a completely different result than if I open camera raw as if I was going to open in Photoshop "COMMAND O".  I've attched two files below using both methods. the one using the "COMMAND O" option is much better but still not as good as my previous I7 processor on my 2016 MBP. Im currently on a 2021 M1 Max 16" I imagine its better becaue the version of bridge you have available is still for "intel" do you plan on making a version for the Silicon M1 Chip??? I really hope the answer is yes as Im going crazy not being able to use the feature. It was a huge time saver and it worked better on my old machine. 

Bridge Photo downloader has been crashing like what one could only expect to see in Windows 3.0 30 years ago! The instability of Photoshop with Mac is beyond imagination - and Adobe is just happy collecting subscriptions and seemingly doesn't care about the terrible state of their software.

This problem is sooooo. annoying!!I bought a Macbook Pro M1 Max and Bridge is like a snail or doesn't work at all.I spent 2-3 hours on the phone with Adobe tech support 3 days ago, trying all the fixes and the conclusion was I had to do a deep uninstall of all Adobe products from my machine, resulting in me loosing all of my presets, catalogue’s, settings etc.Of course that was a no go.He said there is no record of this being an issue for other customers.Come on Adobe I see others in the community with the same issue, some from 6 months ago!Get it sorted PLEASE!!!

I've just installed Bridge on my new MB Pro, with M1 chipset, and Big Sur. After installation Bridge doesn't open. Error message: Write permission error. Do you have any idea how to fix this problem? Thank you. 

Fugetaboutit.

Maybe this is already well understood, but it is new to me and I thought I would share. I was trying to cull through a series of similar photos in a folder. I decided to set all files with a Rating of 3 and then as I viewed each file individually I would rate the image up or down from 3 as I decided whether the image was better or worse. I wanted to then filter on only images greater than 3. What I noticed was that the filter for Rating disappeared from the Filter palette/panel. After some fiddling and comparing with an older version of Bridge, I discovered that if all files in the folder have the same Rating value then the filter disappears, but once I change at least one file to have a different Rating value from the rest, then the Rating filter appears once more. Starnge but true (for me).Peter

Hey there, I just started to just Bridge after years of being frustrated with Lightroom's speed (or lack thereof). I really like how preview and Camera Raw load images (almost) instantly and I am impressed by the fact that camera raw zooms to 100 % in no time. Trying that with Lr takes a couple of seconds to really load the image (on a good day). But there are quiet a few things I'm not so keen on. 1. Zooming in in Camera Raw "selects" the picture, so I cannot skip through them with the arrow keys anymore, unless I reselect the picture in the filmstrip or press ctrl+arrow. Not a biggie, but foces me to jump between mouse an keyboard with my right hand and slows things down.2. Zooming in the "full screen preview" in Br takes as long as in Lr. Why is Camera Raw so much quicker? Is there a way to review pictures and control sharpness at the same time? Review mode has the rather useful magnifying glass I know from C1, where I liked working with it, but only display

Bonjour,Bridge pointe sur Photoshop 2021, alors que je voudrais qu'il soit lié à Photoshop 2022.Que dois-je faire?Avec mes remerciementsPhilippe

Hey all, I need to rename a lot of files. When I do Batch Rename in Bridge and then synchronize the folder in Lightroom Classic, all of the keywords are gone. Is there a way to rename files without removing keywords? Thanks!

I have been trying to set up a smart collection in Bridge using the date field and I get an error message "Please provide a valid date in the form of dd mm yyyy."        I have tried EVERY date format I can think of with absolutely no luck.Please help, it's driving me nutsDavid

When I use the function search to find photos from my archive through metadata, it doesn't works when those files are in an external drive, however, it works if the files are in the Pc... since most of my archive is in the external drive could be helpful find a solution. Thanks

Hello, photos in Bridge 2022 do not open in Photoshop 2022 on my computer. I have checked the Bridge Preferences for the File handling, but could only find a File Type Association that refers to the 2 cameras I have that have RAW file as an option. Can someone please help with this problem? Thank you!

Hi allI am using NAS to store my images and videos. My question is, after giving keyword to a picture if I move the place of that image from A folder to B folder in the same NAS, will bridge be able to search the image? Thanking you in anticipation Regards

Many of metadata that are normal in standard image files like PNG and JPG are missing in Webp. Please fix them, thanks. Attached image is an example of JPG metadata.  

File properties has a field called Dimensions. This must be renamed. that is an improper label. Rename that filed Pixels.File Properties is missing: Document Unit: Inch, cm, pixel, point...etc. Dimension: Once bridge includes Document Unit, create a the field Dimensions. Granted, artboards can be of different sizes. let's start very simple for now. let's just go with a default for artboard 1,Future updates can include Dimensional information for subsequent artboards. What's funny is JPGs and PSDs have this information. pixel, resolution, and inches even though much of the work here may only ever be displayed on a screen, while Illustrator files are more often printed meaning actual Dimensional information is so much more important to have. 

Estoy en la fase de pruebas con bridge y veo que no me aparece el filtraje de fotos por lente ni por camara. ¿a que es debido?Gracias
