Bridge

When I attempt to launch Bridge it says, "The operation could not be completed." My OS is Big Sur 11.1, and Bridge was working fine (even after the update to Big Sur) until a few days ago. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge several times, even installed version 10 to no avail (same alert/error). This is really frustrating, Adobe!

Hi,We are using Adobe Bridge 11.0.1.109 and when we have finished the adjustments and closed file using Photoshop 22.2.0, the photoshop interface stays open obscuring Bridge. What do I need to tick, untick or whatever so that the photoshop interface closes when working in Bridge?

I'm trying to create a shared Bridge cache for a given folder, but everytime I try I get the following error:An error occurred during shared cache export. Would you like to retry?There is no error code or any other information given, I have no clue what I'm doing incorrectly - can anyone give me a pointer on where to start?

Why do some images in Bridge appear as small icons while others are jpg images?

Hi folks,I'm using Bridge 2020, but I believe my question relates to any version. When I open bridge and select a collection to view Bridge tells me that there are X no. of missing files, and asks if would I like to find them. The apparently broken path to the file is shown in this find popup, but I can only see a small portion of the path, so I can't determine which image to look for. Is there a way to see what the missing file is? Scrolling through the path isn't possible, and clicking on browse doesn't take me to the (former) location of the missing file. So I'm unable to search for the mysterious image. Is there a solution to this problem?Thanks!

I'm trying to import some camera raw files into bridge and I keep getting this error message (see below). I already tried updating both bridge and photo downloader and that didn't seem to fix it. It was working fine yesterday, and I didn't change anything. Any suggestions?  

I have had no issues using the Bridge Photo Downloader until recently. I am not sure what changed but now when tick the "convert to DNG" box, my images copy but do not convert. If I open DNG converter I am able to convert the copied files with no error, but this seems an unnecessary second step in my workflow. I have searched the forums but have not found anything to help.All apps are updated. My Windows photo folders are located on an external drive (USB 3.0) with Full Control permissions set. I am running Windows 7 Pro.{Thread renamed by moderator}

I can drag and drop OUT of bridge, but I can't drop images into bridge, why is that?

I update my PS to version 22.2 and Bridge does not recognize the scripts in this version of PS it sends it to an older version of PS

Ratings in Bridge is a huge part of my workflow. Ratings are simply not working. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I've changed the ratings preferences in the settings, and I've also tried clicking on the stars in the essentials workspace. Nothing works. 

Recently upgraded to Big Sur 11.2.1 and updated all Adobe apps. Running on iMac, Retina 5K, 27 inch, late 2014. 3.5 GHz Quad-Core i5. 8GB memory. AMD Radeon R9 M290X 2 GB graphics. I'm dead in the water. Attempting to make any edit or adjustment to an image in Camera Raw while in Bridge will cause Bridge to instantly crash. There are strange graphics occuring for some of the icons and controls as well. Since Bridge is unusable, it is closed. All my Adobe apps are closed. Out of the blue, Bridge error report dialog windows will pop up randomly. Very bizarre.

I added a keyword to some files. Now I want to find the files that contain that keyword. Is there a way of doing this without opening all my folders and subfolders?

I have a Drobo 5N, the share is mounted, drive letter is assigned.  I've updated Bridge, the Drobo, my OS has the latest and greatest, yet Bridge does not see the drive.    Bridge is set to run as administrator.   I am on Windows 10.  The OS can interact with the drive with no issues.  What else can I try?    

Is this going to be fixed anytime soon? The work around is resaving all files to JPGs or PSDs and is a waste of time and rather not do. 

since the last upgrade of Bridge, xmp files are no longer appearing (or being saved?) when I upload files from a camera card and into Bridge. Is there a setting that I need to change?   

Hello, seems to be gone from tools in bridge. Need to batch process some pics, but it hjas gone from it's usual place. Thanks in advance

Help - my MAC OS Catalina updated to version 10.15.7 and now my Adobe Bridge 2021 has stopped working.  I get the Adobe Bridge error message:  This operation could not be completed.  An unknown operating system has occurred."  Would very, very much appreciate some assistance from some kind soul.  JH

I just added photos in Adobe bridge and did a batch reaname like I always do. Now all the files I renamed are white squares and I can't open them. Has this happened to anyone before? If so how do I fix this?

I'm having massive trouble with the search engine of Adobe Bridge CC 2019 which delivers no results in caseof searching for keywords. This is an essential function for my daily work. I have thousands of tagged files.CC 2018 still works and is showing the correct results. Any idea?Settings are the same in both applications.

It seems that while they keep updating this to make things take more steps and time, they don't bother getting rid of the bugs.  So I have a folder of videos (.mov from Nikon camera) that were mostly thumbnails but some icons.  I updated the copyright metadata so they all changed to icons and I can't choose to work on in Premiere Pro.  I go to CS6, where I can always count on thumbnails and start selecting and then I notice that 72 of 91 clips in the folder have the wrong date of 11/24/2019 that has no realtionship or time to when they were taken, in 2020.  This is a new favorite assigned date for Bridge because before it was always giving some date years before.  I have talked previously to Adobe techs about this problem and they say maybe the camera has the wrong date, and I answer no, why would the NEF files just before and after have the right date.  I go back to CC, where the wrong dates are the same, and there are 2 thumbs and 89 icons.  So CC n

Hi all,I have run a batch rename that has gone wrong and can't undo. Now my files contain repetitions: Asia.jpgAsia.jpgAsia.jpgAsia.jpg Is there a way to use String Substitution to identify and remove repetitions?Many thanks

Hello,I have been using Bridge for keyword assignments so I can better organize and find photos that I've taken. But I have noticed that sometimes I will have two different issues. I will attach photos for each issue. Issue 1: Photos that are assigned a sub-keyword will not register under their parent keyword in the Filter section. Figure 1: Notice that I have assigned the "blog" keyword to these photos. Notice on the left that the "blog" keyword isn't registered under its Parent keyword "Themes" in the Filter panel. It should register as "Themes/blog". _____________________________________________________________________________________ Issue 2: When filtering down photos by a keyword (that has a parent keyword / though I don't know if that's related), under the Keywords panel the associated Parent-keyword/Sub-keyword doesn't show that it is checked. Last but not least, as photos are selected in Bridge, Keywords start to appear under Other Keywords/Parent-keyw

I am having endless trouble with KEYWORDS. At the moment I have created several keywords with sub keywords. One of the keywords is Wildlife. Rather foolishly I created a sub keyword under Wildlife. This sub word was Birds and that sub word contains many sub-sub keywords. I thought it better to move the Birds keyword out of Wildlife, so I renamed it Wildlife Birds and dragged it out of Wildlife. So far so good. But now, Wildlife Birds is the number one keyword, listed above all others, non alphabeticaly. That is Wildlife Birds comes above Aviation, Antarctica, etc. etc. I cannot drag it to below the still exisiting Wildlife Keyword folder. How do I get it to take its proper alphabetical place, please?

Every time I close Adobe Bridge and reopen my Camera Uploads in DropBox on next startup, Bridge repopulates the folder - there are over 10000 photos in there...it take about 20 minutes! Am I missing the setting to keep the libary?

So I am currently trying to make a PDF contact sheet in adobe bridge. I have my pictures selected and I can view them in Essentials and Libraries but when I switch to Output to put the pictures onto the canvas, the pictures dissapear and I cant drag them onto my contact sheet, aka my content panel is not showing on my output page. I do not think it is secretly pulled down somewhere somewhere. I have no idea why it is not showing up or how to get it there. Here are some screenshots of what I am looking at. I would also like to note I have to click that drop down arrow next to film strip to get to output, but I noticed it tutorials it was already there and people did not need to press that arrow.
