Bridge

Just a question for the Bridge Experts.  Does Bridge cache previews of JPEG files, and if so, why?  I mean aren't previews just another JPEG file?

I accidentally deleted a couple images from adobe bridge when trying to get rid of bad photos I took. I have tried to look for help on numerous websites to no avail. I have the newest version of bridge too.

Hello,I prefer using Adobe Bridge and ACR rather than Adobe Lightroom. However, I have noticed that lightroom will save you photos in the cloud and I can access them on my laptop and on my iPhone in the Adobe Lightroom app. Is there a similar cloud backup system for photos in Bridge and its edits?

I updated to Big Sur and Bridge CS6 is now officially dead. I am now stuck with whatever "improvements" Adobe thinks up every few months to the look of the latest Bridge. The most annoying improvement is the heavy black frame around all the thumbnails. I am constant reminded of the heavy eye makeup on Johnny Depp. Is there an option to remove those frames? Thanks.

For some reason, in the past two hours I haven't been able to directly open up a .tiff or .jpg file into Photoshop from Bridge. Just two hours ago I was opening them right into Photoshop. When I right click on an image in Bridge the only option to open a .tiff or .jpg is opening it into Camera Raw first. There is no option to open those file types directly into Photshop. Any clue why this is would happen all of sudden?

I've been shooting Nikon cameras forever and have never had a problem getting photo's directly from the camera using Bridge, until now.  With my Z7, D800, and older cameras Bridge will find the camera quickly and start the download immediately when I click to start.  With my new D850 I am finding mixed results.  The first time I used Bridge with this new camera everything worked as expected.  The next time, Bridge couldn't find the camera.  Sometimes I have to wait a very very long time for Bridge to recognize the camera.  Sometimes (rarely) it works normally.  Restarting the computer first doesn't seem to make a difference.  It has become faster to just remove the card from the camera and plug it into a card reader. This behavior is only happening with the D850.  My other cameras work as expected.  So I wonder if anyone else has experienced this same problem or anyone has a recommendation to try. Thanks,

Since last update Bridge 2020 PhotoDownloader does not retain  settings, and does not convert to .DNGHow can I  downgrade to Bridge CC 2019?

With previous versions of Bridge you could set a registry key to add an "Open in Adobe Bridge" shortcut to Windows Explorer to open folders in Bridge. This moethod is not working with CC 8.0, and it gives me this error:D:\PhotosApplication not found[OK]Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Bridge]@="Open in Adobe Bridge"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Bridge\command]@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Adobe Bridge CC 2018\\Bridge.exe\" \"%L\""

For some reason I no longer can see contents of a selected folder... I should be able to select a folder and in the preview pane see what files are in it.

I can't open a file in Bridge by double clicking. I have to go to File...Open. I think my trouble began when I enabled the following : "The Bridge extension "photoshop_v2021" has been added to Bridge. Do you want to enable it now? I am now at Bridge 9.1.0.338 and can't go higher.

I recently realized that Bridge 2020 ... and actually started with Bridge 2019 - randomly can't create previews of EXR (either on win10 xeon machines or win10 ryzen3900 machines). When opening in Photoshop 2020 the files are not able to open - because of an error.My first assumption was, that those files got corrupted somehow during the preview process. But thats not the case...It actually happens randomly - as i tried Bridge on other Computers to create a preview of those EXR and different Files were affected.Than i tried open them in Photoshop CS6 and it worked flawlessly. Saving those EXR is also no problem and finally Bridge 2020 were able to create previews and even Photohop2020 were able to open them.There must some issues with Bridge&Photoshop 2020 and Preview-creation.The Photoshop CS6 is a unpleasant work-around - specially when you have to deal with many images.EXR are Rendering-Results from 3dsmax&corona-render

Bonjour,Je cherche  a installer une version ancienne de bridge car mon ordinateur ne me permet pas de mettre a jour window 10 version 1903 ? auriez vous une solution ? merci

Hi ?I was search a file from my HDD using Br menu (Edit-find?,  Ctrl+ F) with Keyword,  but I do not know where this file is located in my HDD (E:) How do I know my file location (folder) ? Thank you inadvance.  

Hello, I have an iMac, less than a year old. Bridge and photoshop are running at the same speed as on my 12 year old PC. I have updated my OS to 'Big Sur' as well as all my Adobe software hoping that would speed things up.Now Bridge is not showing some images when browsing the library... sometimes it won't show any images, just blank, black squares. 

Pointer too small and black. How to fix?

Is it? It used to be only in Photoshop in older versions, but now the Place menu has many apps. And Photoshop is last. Can I modify that list? (I'd like to just keep Ps in order to make my work faster as I do it only with keyboard commands).  

Really hoping to find a solution that will allow me to open metadata entered in Bridge to various files as a Excel spreadsheet.Thanks

Since update 2021 my Bridge is unusable.While scrolling throug my photos it crashes and the only way to leave the program is to force a shut down. Most of the times I can manage to use it with the first 6 photos in my directory and then it freezes.Hopefully there will be a solution for this problem, since it is the first time I cannot use Bridge anymore.

Newest version of the software and Camera Raw. What's weird is that among a set of pictures, only a few cannot be openned while the rest is fine. When I switch to Photoshop (also in newest version), the situation remains. See the attached images for more information. Thanks!

I have a .txt file with a list of 350 images, which I have to select in a folder with more than 2500 images.Is there any way, using this list to automatically make that selection, without having to manually select one by one?Thanks in advance 

Hello,I'm unable to see video thumbnails and/or previews in Bridge 2021 when connected to the server. I can see them when I'm connected directly to a hard drive. Any idea why this is happening? 

I always use this plugin on Bridge to make a resized version of my large files. But after the recent update, I found this plugin no longer works well. It resized my original file size as well. So I lost my large files due to this. This is a serious problem. Please fix it. 

HELP!  Bridge that came with my photoshop CS^ stopped opening.   I looked up updates and basically tells you to get new Bridge, which my system does not support.  I suspect problem has something to do with ADOBE no longer supporting FlashPlayer....    Am I at a total lose here?

I am planning to create an accessible archive of 50+ years worth of photographs, a fair number of them currently in negatives or as prints, the rest in digital form.  I need to go through them, weed out unwanted images, then label and clean up, particularly the older images. My negative files have approximate dates (month/year) and most of the digital images have dates. I have started on the negatives, but find it difficult to keep track, particularly when editing images in Photoshop, as keywords seem to get lost.Any advice or suggestions on how to use Bridge to create and maintain a catalogue will be very welcome. Many thanks, Richard

Hi Just updated to 2021, and couldnt work out why my metadata changes werent saving. Now i see a little tick and cross at the bottom, and it looks like you now have to press tick (apply) after every change. Forget to press that and youve lost all changes. what a pain Is that new? can we select auto save when we move to another image? Also, while im here, can we move the metadata fields? TITLE makes much more sence to be above description to me.Thanks for the help.
