Bridge

No offence to the creators and those in management .....etc but it is about time that accessing content libraries in adobe bridge over all other adobe app's should not be an issue , as just a simple amatuer even i see how it makes ADOBE look , not very good and a bit backward ,  not having the technology in place to allow full access to adobe bridge libraries , hopefully this issue is quickly rectified before the competition enables such access in thier systems and starts an avalanche of customers leaving ADOBE to go to the competition who are listening and taking notice of what the subscriptiooon paying $$$$$$$$$$$$ customers are requesting

I am unable to uninstall an older version that is slushing behind in my application list. The only way a might be able to uninstall it is to reinstall the exact same version and then uninstall that one. (It worked for other adobe applications) This older version (it has to be v10.0 )doesn't seem to be available any more.Does someone know how I might be rid of this problem? OS: Windows 10Have the complete CC suite.PS. I have tried all the regular proceedings before posting this question. DS

Hi All Is there a simple metadata re-edit process when one field in the Bridge Metadata Template changes and there are thousands of images to update in a photo library...with the images sitting in an organised single folder but within many multiple subfolders...without the need to open each subfolder to apply the new template changes directly to the images in the subfolder? Say, the IPTC metadata includes an address, email or phone details and one of these changes... Any help appreciated. Many thanksChristoChristo Aitken

I use Adobe Bridge on 2 MacBook Pro's. On my old MBP, OS Catalina, it works fine. On my new one, MBP M1, OS Big Sur, Bridge will not look into my Documents and Download folders. It works on other folders, and it works with Documents on my external backup drive. I have installed the newest version of Bridge and it still doesn't work. Any suggestions are appreciated.   

If I open a JPEG from Bridge in ACR, make some changes then click the Done button to exit ACR the changes I made are visible in Bridge. However, if I view the JPEG file in Windows Explorer the changes are not there. There is no XMP file for the JPEG so where are the changes saved? Does bridge have a catalog that contains the changes like LR or are the changes written into the JPEG in a format that is ignored by other image viewing software? Thanks. By the way, I know that I can  force the changes to disk by clicking the Save Image button in ACR instead of clicking Done but this is messy because there is no way to overwrite the existing JPEG file. Every change generates a new file.

I found plenty of articles explaining how to turn ON color sycning, but no information on how to turn it off. Every time export a PDF from a book file in InDesign, I get an error message about color profiles. I'd like to simply turn off the color syncing. Any ideas how?  

Hallo,Man öffnet den Internet Explorer, dann auf den Ordner mit den Bildern auf der NAS mit rechter Maustaste, auf "In Adobe Bridge 2021 durchsuchen" klicken. Und nun werden die Bilder in der Bridge angezeigt. Es ist kein MAC.LG Leo

The new update now makes the app icon smaller than the other CC icons.

If I go into ACR from Bridge and flip an image vertically (or possibly rotate through 180deg) the resulting image shows correctly in Bridge, but when I do a slideshow (ctrl L) it shows as unflipped. I attach an example

Hi. Basically, whenever I try to do a batch rename in Adobe Bridge CC 2020 the program freezes and it doesn't rename. To shut it down I have to go to Task Manager and End Task. Things I have tried:- Uninstall all Adobe applications and used Adobe Cleaner- Ctrl-Alt-Delete and cleaned preferences- Moved files to another disk drive (including flash drive) and tried to rename there I'm at wits end. Is there a Windows 10 security setting that might be blocking it? Ive seen mention of something like this for Mac. Thank

The newest version of bridge does not include Photoshop actions within Tools menu - can no longer open multiple images from Bridge into layers in same document within Photoshop?

Hello. Have 2 computers, one with Windows 7 and Photoshop CC. Bridge opens, no problem. Have a new computer with Photoshop CC, and Bridge CC will not start. Please do not suggest any changes to Preferences, purging cache and so on, as when I click the Bridge icon or attempt to browse Bridge within Photoshop CC, the hour glass icon appears for a half second, and then nothing. Thanks, Jim.

Hi,Bridge is massively slower than ever.Never did that for years.Worked like charm back in August 2020, folders of 500+ raws (30Mb/ea) with no slow issue. - Opening a folder of only 100 raws, Bridge literrally freeze for almost 1 min, after i could barely use it.- Freeze when openning menus (File, Edit ect...).- Freeze when navigate between images : randomly takes 3-4 sec to change image with arrows in thumbnail view (not full view).- Freeze when click on Filters- Overall : random freezes Anyone have this issue and got a solution ?Thanks for the time What i did :- Resintalled Bridge- Tried to launch Bridge, wait it to "work", close and launch it again : same slows/freeze each time.- Cache cleared- Start up scripts removed Config :- Core i7 9700K- GeForce 2080 Ti- 32GB RAM- 1To SSD (dedicated to photos edit only, no programs on it) (60% full)- Windows 10 Pro on 500Gb SSD (40% full)- Background softs running : Brave (browser) + google sync + discord + adobe CC (no cha

For a while now, I have had an issue where when updating keywords, it comes up with an error the first time, and is usually ok when I try it again/ On more serious occasions it removes the metadata (created date/keywords/location data etc. I use nested keywords, and it tends to happen when either I enter a deep level or do too many updates in quick succession. The error message is not useful, and I dont know whether I could add some debugging to hget more info. (If I call support it tends to work!)

In ACR I set the images to open as smart objects. When I try to add multiple files as layers via the Photoshop Tools Menu Item, it refuses as it will not work on smart objects. In the previous version of photoshop this worked by opening the images as non smart objects. This worked well, so can we please have it back? 

After the recent update, Bridge now minimizes the folder tree and preview panes any time the program itself is minimized. I'm using a 2020 Dell XPS 15 with a 4K screen. Purging preferences doesn't work, and neither does manually setting the scaling rate. It is the exact same behavior described and shown here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/bridge/how-to-stop-bridge-autocollapsing-panels-bridge-version-9-1-0-338-on-windows-10/td-p/10472136?page=1 Here is a video uploaded by a user who had the same problem: https://assets.adobe.com/public/44661f97-5caf-4d3d-4b0c-cc477e21cbf6

Wenn ich mit Bridge zu einem Ordner navigiere dauert es sehr lange bis der geööfnet wird. Zum Beispiel das Anzeigen der Schreibtisch Ordner z.t. mehrere Minuten, wenn ich dann einen Schreibtisch Ordner öffnen möchte dauert es wieder. Ich habe den selben Effekt an meinen iMac und MacBook.Was zu sehen ist, ist der drehende Kreis.

I am interested to work simultaneously on the metadata in Brige and Lightroom at the same time.Is there a way to edit and save xmp files from Lightroom in Bridge And in the opposite direction?

Is it possible to add a white label to media (as opposed to the default color options)?  i see lots of posts about how these labels unexpectedly show up when photos are imported from another source, but i would actually LOVE extra colors to play with. When editing i sometimes use the colors to help my brain stay organized.  So, white, or whatever – any way to label with ANY color(s) in addition to the five defaults? And even if it can't be done directly, there must be some back-door trick to it, no?  i mean, Bridge clearly has the ability to display a white bar, so there's gotta be some way to trigger it.THANK YOU! YOU GUYS ROCK!

What changed in Bridge that .xmp files are not longer included in .raw ?

Hi, I use Bridge version 11 on Windows 10 with Photoshop CC version 2017. I note that Photoshop option is missing in Tools menu of Bridge. I read on other posts in this Community than to fix this issue, we must have the same version of Bridge and Photoshop. The problem is that I want to keep Photoshop CC 2017, not to update it. Then, if I follow logic, I have to uninstall Bridge version 11 to install a previous version of Bridge compatible with Photoshop CC 2017. Am I right? If so, which version of Bridge fit with Photoshop CC 2017 and where to find it? Thank you! Michel

Everytime I am using bridge for more like 15mins (mostly for previews, instant crash while exporting large files) a sudden shutdown appears - after the restart there is the following panic report: I'im running on a 2017 Macbook pro, 16gb ram, Mojave 10.14I tried deinstalling, re-installing the software, cleaning caches etc.  any help appreciated! *** Panic Report ***panic(cpu 6 caller 0xffffff8002ad87bd): Kernel trap at 0xffffff8002abbdd6, type 13=general protection, registers:CR0: 0x0000000080010033, CR2: 0x00000001c7252000, CR3: 0x00000001804ac1df, CR4: 0x00000000003626e0RAX: 0x000000000047effe, RBX: 0x000000000038fb8c, RCX: 0xffffffffffffff01, RDX: 0x800000038fb8c047RSP: 0xffffff921bc8bab0, RBP: 0xffffff921bc8bb30, RSI: 0x0000000000000000, RDI: 0x00000001804ac000R8:  0xffffff801faab180, R9:  0x0000000000000020, R10: 0x00000001c57ff000, R11: 0x0000000000000000R12: 0xfffffeba87b67ff8, R13: 0xffffff803b1d7d10, R14: 0xffdfff801faab180, R15: 0x0000000000000f

Since I have updated Bridge to the 2019 version I cannot see anymore thumbnails for .MP4 video files when searching in my folders. I can only see thumbnails for .MOV files.Bridge CC allowed to see both. I am sure there must be a setting that I miss that should allow me to see both. Especially that I can see all these thumbnails in explorer for example.I would much appreciate some help.I currently run my computer under Windows 10 64bits.Motherboard : Gigabyte X399 AORUS Gaming 7Processor : AMD Ryzen 1950x (16 coeurs / 32 Threads) 3.5GHRam : 64 GoGraphic Cards 2x ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1080TI 11G  Thanks in advanceMessage was edited by: Sahil Chawla

How long has this issue been plaguing Bridge?I've found questions online about this topic going back many years now....with none of those related questions that are posted here on these Forums having any real resolution or answer....It makes Bridge impossible to use in a group / team setting as an image browser / presenter.I'm not kidding when I say that this simple, stupid, tiny detailed option is the sole reason I have completely stopped using Bridge in a professional setting.Both of the other image cataloging / viewing program I have ever used in an office team situation does this simple and very necessary task perfectly!I'm talking specifically about ThumbsPlus and Extensis Portfolio.When a folder of images are all of various pixel dimensions, and a user checks "Scaled to Fit" in Slideshow Options and then runs the Slideshow, one can reasonably assume that EVERY IMAGE SHOULD BE FIT TO THE CURRENT SCREEN, PROPORTIONALLY! The remainder of the image should be letterboxed.But that simp

.dng files randomly not opening in Bridge all of a sudden today. Some files open, other do not. But if I double-click the same file (that wouldn't open in Bridge) in Finder, it opens in ACR as expected. Error messsage says "no files selected" (but they are) or "file is read-only" (which it is not!)
