Bridge

Using a Mac w/Big Sur. Folder of photos crashes opening in Bridge on my iMac Pro but not on my MacBook Pro. Identical software on both computers. Help

Nach Update auf Mac OS 11.1 speichert Bridge keine Fenstereinstellungen mehr. Beim Schliessen geht die aktuelle Einstellung verloren, und es folgen mal die eine mal die andere Fehlermeldung, siehe angehängte Screenshots. Rechtereparatur im OS ist gemacht.

I have a problem with Bridge suddenly crashing while I'm editing Camera RAW files. It almost always happens when I use the keyboard shortcut to zoom the view in or out (⌘+ / ⌘-). The whole program just crashes and shuts down. There are no recovered files available. Sometimes changing the view with keyboard shortcuts works with no problem, and then other times there's just a sudden crash. As a longtime Adobe user it's really hard to get out of the habit of using these keyboard shortcuts, and I shouldn't have to avoid them anyway. Anyone else having this issue? Between this and all the problems with the new PS, I'm losing my mind here!Problem is consistent on both Bridge 2020 and 2021. I'm on a new Mac running Catalina.

Bridge an Photoshop star to open some pictures, one in second, and does not stop. This makes it impossible to start the program in normal way. I can not use Bridge or Photoshop! I hope that Adobe will fix this broblem as soon as possible. Problem started this morning, after I noticed that new versions has been istalled. 

I work on a Mac Powerbook Pro, running Catalina OS. I have Adobe Bridge 2021. When I try to look in my Documents folder, it shows nothing. Zero files or folders, nothing. I have the same Documents folder backed up on an external drive and Bridge works fine with that. It was working fine until today. Any help solving this problem would be appreciated.

I think I might uninstall Bridge 2021.  There are far too many issues in the last few minutes and this computer has hung more often than it has since owning it.  Bridge 2021 should not:cause a system wide slow down because it is resolving some issuesdo everything slower than it has in the last 10 years or sodepend upon Creative Cloud login merely to get Bridge 2021 workingI will be patient with it for a while but it looks as if alternative ways of doing things might be better merely because it avoids the Adobe induced hang on smooth computer operability.  

Hi!Is it possible to watch several movies at the same time on the screen? If I mark several mp4-files and would like to see them playing at the same time, exactly at the same time from the beginning, is it possible? Thanks/ Andreas

I fully understand how to add and edit GPS metadata either in Bridge, Lightroom or a third party application and have been doing this successfully for quite some time.I have just bought a Canon EOS 5D Mk iv which has built in GPS and auto tags images (provided that the function is turned on.)With RAW images which have been tagged by the camera, it seems impossible to edit and save changes to the GPS metadata in Bridge or Lightroom successfully (why would i want to is a different question but largely because it lacks accuracy some of the time.)Edited data is recorded in the associated XMP file, but Bridge is reading the original data from the image itself, and ignoring the XMP file.One solution is to convert the images to DNG before making edits then there is no problem with editing and saving the metadata.Using DNG files creates one issue.  Namely that, should the original RAW file be extracted from the DNG in the future, it contains the ORIGINAL metadata and not the EDITED versio

Years ago I had to stop my subscription to adobe products because various app didn't allow me to change media cache file which rendered my hard drive useless because of all the space taken. Years after, today, I install bridge and quickly my hard drive gets full because of media cache file.I check the preferences. Is it a bad dream, or it is still NOT possible to define the location of the media cache file of bridge (on mac)?

I have created plugins for After Effects and Premiere for a new video file format which has a new file container (ie. not Quicktime or AVI) and so now I can work with these files in those programs (import, export and modify) however Bridge does not recognise these files - is there an SDK that can be used to extend Adobe Bridge to be able to work with the new Video file pes that I have - I can work in C,C++ or Javascript  Many thanks, Nigel

When I created an action in CS6 to taked tiffs and process with various parameters into jpegs, when I'd run the action as a batch from Bridge, they would go into the same folder.  But now in CC, they go to a set folder, and I have to change the last save function to go into the present folder, and so on, every time I want to process a batch in another folder.  I think originally, it was 'save in same folder' but now it is save where last saved.  Can I change that option or do I have to create a new action with all the steps I have in the other? 

Earlier versions of Bridge allowed to export the cache into the folders, where the files were located. This allowed for smooth browsing through the folders, without having to wait for it to access the cache files somewhere else, or even regenerate them, because the allocated cache size had been exeeded. The recent versions don´t allow this anymore, they even reimporte cache date from the folders into the dedicated - limited sized - cache for all. Allthough it is possible to stop this, the cache for new files, automatically goes to the central cache, with now export to the folders possible anymore. The reorganisation of the cache, which seems to be going on while the user is trying to work, seem to be taking time and resources, keeping hard drives rattling and displays freezing, as soon as the PC is started.  With my 300 000+  photo files on 8TB HD space, this has been going on for months now. While I can access newly added files relatively easy, as long as the

User interface scaling options are 100% or 200%, with no other choices.I have difficulty reading the font, especially in the ACR menus, and recognizing the icons using 100%, with font sizing set to its largest option, nearly unusable.200%, with font sizing set to its smallest option, makes the UI enormous, unnecessarily using up my screen real estate, also nearly unusable.See attached for screen shots.Minimal options should be 100, 125, 150, 175, & 200%.I'm quite happy with all of my other applications, e.g., my browsers are set to 100% magnification.My eyes are not what they used to be, requiring reading glasses at times, but still not requiring glasses full time.  These latest UI changes leave much to be desired.

Please do you know how to solve the problem with video from Samsung phone? Bridge does not play or display them. However, they are functional in Adobe Premiere.Thanks in advance for the reply;)

I was reverted back recently to Bridge 2020 because the updates crashed my computer and now I can't see TIFF previews.  Anyone know how to fix this?  Thanks in advance.  

Hi, my name is Thijs. I use Bridge all the time to browse my raw files, open them via ACR into Photoshop. Since around Dec 1st, Bridge is taking up 90-100% CPU for minutes, even after finishing creating thumbnails and previews. I noticed it because Photoshop was laggy. Before, Bridge would take up a considerable amount of resources to create thumbs/previews, but would settle down immediately after. To give you an idea: on a folder with 200 CR2 Canon raw files, it takes appr. 50 seconds to create thumbs/previews. But then it goes on for about 10 minutes at 90% CPU. And it takes appr 3.5 GB RAM. This leaves Photoshop very laggy, hard to work with. When I switch to another folder with only a few small jpgs, the CPU slows down to 2%. When I focus back on the original folder, it goes back up to 80-95%.The problem seems not to occur with jpgs and tiffs, so it might also be a Camera Raw issue? I'm on Windows 10. My computer is an i9 with 64GB RAM, and an NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB graphics card

Attached is a sample of some illustrations I made for my book Cinematography: Theory and Practive. Several years ago, probably CS4, I think. I am not able to do this again in CS6 or Bridge 2021. How can I get back to a display where the margins between photos on as small as in this sample? Also, can I export or screen capture this entire screen directly from Bridge?Thanks

Hello !  Do you know how to open an image with Camera Raw with Adobe Bridge javascript scripting ?  I manage to :- target Bridge application,- get a list of all the .jpg images inside the folder "/Users/input_directory" (i'm using a Mac),- select one image in the list (here the second image), - display the image in a new document- select the thumbnail that corresponds to the fileThe code is below :   #target bridge-4.0; var files = Folder("/Users/input_directory/").getFiles("*.jpg"); var file_test = files[2]; var doc = new Document(file_test); var selectedThumbnails = app.document.getSelection(); var thumb = selectedThumbnails[0];  Do you know how i can edit the image using Camera Raw by scripting, and then export it (in raw, dng or another format) ?Documentation about Adobe Bridge can be downloaded here : https://console.adobe.io/downloads/brIn JavaScript SDK samples, there are 2 files : - SnpInspectMetadata.jsx- SnpMo

Just need to know how to do it. Using Catalina10.15.7. Until then, I'll use Bridge 2020. At least it acts normal.

Why has Bridge sufddenly stopoped displaying thumbnails for my Canon CR2 files, and TIFF Files.Displaying JPEG and PSD no problem, but Canon RAW CR2 can't see them.Win 7 64 Bit, Bridge 10.1.1.166And Bridge has also stopped displaying thumbnails for video files, in fact, If there is a video file in a folder, Bridge just freeezes completely when it comes to video. Was trying to organise video files from my phone and Bridge just gave up. Another fix by Adobe which was supposed to make things better!! has only made it worse. Again.

Hi, when i write to any data field with jpegs in Bridge there is a data writing error but raw files are writing ok.

Good evening!Despite my system meets all the requirements wrote down by Adobe (https://helpx.adobe.com/br/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cc-gpu-card-faq.html), Adobe Bridge 11.0 does not uses a single bit of my GPU resources (Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti, with 4 Gb of memory, DDR5), opening Adobe Camera Raw 13.1. and so does Abobe Photoshop 22.1. Otherwise, the latest version of Lightroom Classic, Adobe Bridge 10.1.1 and Adobe Photoshop 21.2.4 makes full use of my GPU when opening the same Adobe Camera Raw 13.1. and I do have a very acceptable performance opening Nikon's D850 and Nikon's D810 raw files.I think that it is relatively simple, a programing task, to Adobe solve this compatibility issue (or bug), on an up next update.A Nvidia GTX 1080, with 8 Gb of memory, that problably can solve my problem, costs on Amazon.com.br, about US$ 800,00 (approximately 4,200 BRL$). It's a lot of money for a not so great improvement of CC 2021 over CC 2020.My Destop Hardware Specs:O.S.: Windows 10, release 2004Syst

Since installing Bridge 2021, the CPU usage appears to rocket when I first launch Bridge. You can even hear the fans on my PC getting louder when its in use. I've found if you close it down and relaunch it, the CPU use reduces considerably. This didn't happen on the older versions. Anyone having the same issue? FYI my PC specs are:W10 ProIntel i5-9400F 2.90GHz32gb RAM
