Bridge

Hi there! i have just changed to a new macbook pro (2024 m4 max) and when using adobe bridge to organize videos i come up with an issue whith the thumbnail preview.I see thumbnails decolorated in a blueish tone, but when i go mouse over them they show correctly.Is there any info about this?I was asked to install rosetta in order to run premiere, did this affect this preview?Thanks!

my files are labeled sequentially.  1, 2, 3, 4 I have it set to 'sort manually' however, when I move a group of files (1,2,3,4) to another spot, they automatically switch to 4,3,2,1  If I move it back to the orig location, it goes back to 1,2,3,4In addition, the window of files will "jump" a row so it's confusing to look for the location you were at. (hope that's clear) This is completely frustrating when i'm looking at a folder with 600 files, manually sorting them.Please help. This happened because of this update I did not ask for.It's now impossible for me to go back to the old Bridge 😞

I've had this across multiple versions now, bridge just can't keep up. Running a fully specced mac and it consistently wigs out then shows duplicates of one image. If I flick through on preview all the duplicates are there too. I need to force quite bridge and reopen it to get rid of the non existant duplicates. Farrrrrking frusreating. Why is Bridge so slow and horrrible these days!

I am most concerned dabout retaining labeling on my folders and files in Bridge.  I can see where the preferences are in User>Library>Applifation Support>Adobe>Bridge folder, but I am not sure which one handles this?  Is it possible to replace the ones on my new mac with the old ones to get that labeling back? I should note, on the old mac all the info including worksspaces is in a folder: Bridge 2025.  On the new mac there is an "Adobe Bridge2025" folder and a "Bridge 2025 Extensions" which does not exist on the old mac.  Can I just replace the Adobe Bridge 2025 with the Bridge 2025 from my old mac?  Or maybe just the contents? Any helpful advice would be appreciated. thanks.

Ich habe eine Frage/Problem: wenn ich aus Bridge eine Auswahl an Bildern via "Benutzerdefinierter Export" exportiere, habe ich die Möglichkeit im letzten Abschnitt verschiedene Optionen zu wählen, wie mit den Metadaten verfahren werden soll.U.a. steht mir die nachfolgende Option zur Verfügung:_ _ _ursprüngliche Metadaten einschließen- Alle außer Kamera- und Camera RAW-Informationen√ Ortsinformationen entfernen_ _ _ Wenn ich diese Option wähle, gehe ich davon aus, dass in meinen exportierten Bildern KEINE Kamera-Informationen und Ortsinformationen mehr enthalten sind. Aber die Kamera-Infos bleiben in den Bildern enhalten! Wo liegt der Fehler? Bzw. wie kann ich die Infos über die verwendete Kamera, Optik, Blende usw. in einem Stapel entfernen?Vielen Dank.

How do you filter images by resolution using Adobe Bridge (e.g. I only want to look at pictures with a resolution of 1920x1080)?

Hello, there. Let's see if anybody can help...I have a Bridge script that renames and move the visibleThumbnails to new folders.Easy like this: I have 15 visibleThumbnails, then the script will creates 15 folders and move each visibleThumbnail to its own folder.BUT...I need another function to run over the new created folders.This another function is being called after the loop that create the folders.But this another function never runs unless I put an alert at its beginning. Any help?

hi!there is any way to resize metadata field in side panel? On screen Description (Opis in polish, seen on screen) is smaller than Header (Nagłówek), but frequently I need to see all data in desscription and I can't resize that field.I know, that I can press commmand-I and see all metadata with resizable fields and widows - but maybe there is a way to resize it in side panel?Best regards,Mateusz. 

I am super frustrated. Tried 4 different versions. Nothing works. Any suggestions?

Bridge is crashing when trying to search, using CMD+F. i have tried restarting my Mac Pro and rebuilding preferences. this is happening in both Bridge 2024 and 2025. Running Sequoia. Does anyone use an alternative to Bridge that they are happy with? Would be nice if Adobe would step up and fix Bridge, the crashing and freezing is nothing new.

Is there a way to show anything other than the filename when in thumbnail view.  I pretty much always want to work in thumbnail view.  However, I also pretty much ALWAYS want to see the file creation date. Is there a way to accomplish this?Thanks

Hi Community,I've filenames like YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_D750.NEF, and others like YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_MS_D750.NEF (extended with milliseconds).I want to find (not batch rename, not find and replace, just find and display) only filenames with the milliseconds extension.Works easily in Windows Explorer search with wildcards ("*_??_*") but not in the Bridge search.So Bridge search cannot be used with well known wildcards?Thanks for your feedback or ideas for a workaround.Martin  

Whilst the vast majority of keyword operations work faultlessly, I have encountered two which do not.They are Deleting and Renaming a keyword from within the Keywords Panel.This first came to my attention when I created a new keyword and made a typo. I simply could not delete or rename this misspelled keyword without either Bridge crashing completely or freezing for a good 5 minutes before becoming responsive once more. In either case the offending keyword was neither deleted nor renamed on the first attempt.  A second attempt was successful but Bridge still froze for several minutes before completion of the operation.I wonder if this is an issue with my system or a universal problem.Please note that I am not referring at all to applying keywords to images which has never been an issue, but to the editing of keywords within the Keywords Panel.I am on Windows 11 and Bridge Version 14.0.3.200.

Why does the job folder of my bridge app close every time I open it for no reason?

Why does it pop up for no reason every time I open the job folder of my bridge app?

Hello, Running Bridge (15.something.something) on a new laptop with fresh installs and I find that Bridge crashes everytime I attempt to open a particular folder of vectors on my local drive. Folder is called "vectors" and contains 10,405 vectors (5.47gB) all within 20 individual folders. I uninstalled 15 and reinstalled 14 with the same error. I reset preferences—even though I haven't been on Bridge long enough to have preferences—and cleared the cache for the crashing folder. Any ideas? Running 15.1.1 on my Macbook Pro. It is just this one fold Thank you!  

Hey all!Another script for you all, much simpler this time. The script just creates a window with a blank text box for you to write in. You can use it to take notes, as a clipboard, a to-do list, or really anything! The window can be found in Window > Scratch Pad. Download the script here: https://github.com/9yz/bridge-scripts/blob/main/scratchPad.jsx If you haven't seen them already, I've also made some other useful scripts recently, you can find them here: https://github.com/9yz/bridge-scripts/ Enjoy!

3 days ago I discovered the direct export command (as opposed to batching stuff to photoshop). It's already failed twice. Today it's stuck on 414 out of 518, and failed to proceed to the next export when I cancelled it.This sort of productivity feature needs to be totally robust. Nobody likes having to do stuff twice, especially when it is such basic stuff as exporting.If you can't guarantee it wont crash, take a leaf out of media encoder's book and save the bloody exports so that they're still pending when you start a new session! This new bridge is hopeless.  

Is it just me or is the Bridge export function completely hopeless? Every other time I use it it fails, for example:It can't handle psd or psb files bigger than 1gbExport to tiff doesn't workExport to jpeg has no option to convert to sRGBDidn't work today to export jpegs from 11 largish tiffs.It would be useful if it works but it seems to get worse with every update. William.  

I have only encountered this issue since Bridge was updated to 2024Now when I go in to my image folders some are fine and have all thumbnails and previews present, some folders have them for some of the images and other folders have none at all - how do I get these back?I have tried resetting brdige compeltely and deleting the cache, but it has made absolutely no difference - when I go back to the folders that had the issues they are in exactly the same state.When I veiw the folders in Windows Explorer there are no issues with seeing all the images. 

I purchased Elements 2025 11/4/2024 from local Staples Store. I’m 90 years old and couldn’t figure out how to  install so had a Staples Tech get my Elements 2025 up and running. A week ago my MacBook Air M2. locked up and I went to Apple Store for a major fix. This required a complete new system Sequoia 15.5.1installation., which wiped out all my non Apple apps including my new PSE2025. I tried to reinstall PSE 2025, and was denied, due to my previous 2025 installation. I Contacted Adobe robot team service which provided a “How To” reinstall the 2025 PSE app to my same MacBook. I tried for over two hours to figure out how to install. Frankly it’’s a VERY complex procedure, I finally gave up.  I went to a professional Tech at the Staples store who installed my original purchased PSE 2025 app, which also became a difficult procure for me to reinstall. This tech worked diligently over one hour trying to figure out how to reinstall the PSE2025 and gave up as he said it

I've been trying to batch rename a bunch of files, but Bridge only lets me batch rename once. The second, third, fourth time I try, it gets stuck at 0% and never moves. If I quit and reset the preferences and clear the cache, it will work once again, but this is not a sustainable way to work. Anyone have any ideas about what might be causing this and what might fix it? I'm on a mac and have updated to the latest version. I also tried going back to Bridge 2024 and ran into the same issue. I was chatting with support for an hour and a half before we got disconnected and I was unable to reestablish connection.

I tested TWICE the same problem (the first time - my fault - without backup). Given a directory “\location\” with contents A,B,C,D , by creating \location\subdir , when I move A,B,C,D not only do they not appear in “subdir” but they DISAPPEAR from \location\ . The same operation done with the operating system works correctly.VERY DANGEROUS
