Bridge

Hi, I've been painstakingly assigning keywords to several hundred images the last month in Adobe Bridge 2020 on my Mac (Catalina). Today, when I opened the file to work on more images all the keywords are gone from the panel. Yikes! What do I do? Thanks for any help. Chris

If you're used to using Adobe Bridge and ACR, to speed-up your work procedure, be aware that it's not just the interface that has changed—the speed and functionality seems to require a lot more system resources.  For instance, I'm one who uses the crop feature quite a bit.  When cropping large images, one can no longer just draw a cropping rectangle around the portion of the image you want—you must a watch the screen lag as you drag the corner handles from the edges of your full image to what you want.  Then, when you double-click— you'll get a blank screen—a bug that I've not seen anyone else complain about.  I'm guessing that Adobe is trying to make the experience more like cropping on other programs, but this is really agravating!  The new Geometry tab's anamorphic guideline control seems to be more limited in the amout one can manipulate the crop too.  —Yes—after a good amout of time, I finally figured out where that feature was hidden!  Really he

How do I add Affinity Photo to the Panel which appears after - Open with  ?  I have properly installed Affinity Photo Software as well as Adobe Bridge. I just need to link these two. Thanks.

Hello,  Sorry for my novice question.  I have added a folder as a favourite with a large amount of pictures in it. Every time I enter the folder, Brigde seems to be rebuilding all the thumbnails. I think this has something to do with the cash. However, I don't understand the difference between the cash settings that are a part of the Preferences and those available under the Tools menu. All checkboxes in the cash settings in Preferences are checked but this doesn't seem to solve my issue. Do I have to set the cash settings at folder level via the Tools menu as well? Thanks, Emmanuel

Hi, when I use the export panel and save transparency from psd to tiff it looks black on the thumbnail.  This is OK as it is only the thumbnail. But when I export the same psd with transparency to jpeg, the background of the jpeg is also black.  In the past with image processor, it was standard white. Now it comes.  When I first convert to tiff with transparency and then convert those tiffs to jpeg.  The transparency is converted to white. Very illogic and I guess a bug.  I found one other post on this, but no answer from Adobe.  Also weird there is no report on this.  

como abrir arquivos no photoshop CC 2020 com adobe bridge 

Why is it that, after 15 years, it is still not possible to specify which folder Bridge should open on startup? It's such an easy preference to provide.For example, in FastStone Image Viewer, the choices for which folder to open on startup are:System DefaultLast UsedSpecified So how come a free software can do this whereas the mighty Adobe cannot. It is so frustrating.   

I keep getting this message when I try to delete file from Bridge2020, mac Catalina. Just started after Catalina update. If I delete in Finder first, there is no error message, deletes in Bridge and Finder. If I delete in Bridge first, get error message and image is still in finder.

I put my Bridge and Photoshop in the same screen to show a comparison. Bridge UI is like twice the size of any other app. It's so weird. Is this intentional or some bug? Or some setting that I turn off? 

I used to be able to use Bridge/Output to create basic websites that had thumbnails of all the selected images.  It would even upload them directly to my server.  I used this to preview images for clients.   It appears that Bridge no longer offers the ability to create these preview websites.  Did the feature get removed or am I just missing it somewhere else in the software? If it is gone- can anyone suggest another way of previewing images online for clients?Thanks for any info!

This a known issue and has been confirmed. Process Collections in PS" and that caused an instant Br crash to desktop - no warnings or hesitation. It's consistent, now; every single attempt to choose 

I have the latest version of Adobe Bridge (10.1.0.163) and the latest version of Windows 10 Pro. For no apparent reason, Bridge has "decided" that the default "Open with" option for .braw files (Blackmagic RAW video files) needs to be uTorrent (!).It's a "decision" of Bridge alone, since the OS has the official BRAW player set as the default app to open .braw files. Inside Bridge, I can't see .braw format among the list of file types to change its default app.Any suggestion?

n Bridge 2020 my Canon raw files are not converted to thumbnails but  my still available Bridge 2019 will convert the Canon RAW to thumbnails

How do i get rid of Bridge v10.11 in Windows 10? I ignored it and now it's moved images without my permission or something. I want to get rid of it or make it stop doing anything at all. Thanks! Robyn 

Sorry to see this issue has been showing up in the forum since 2018: doesn't look good!Anyway, fwiw, I'll mention that when I right-click a thumbnail in Bridge and select Open with … Illustrator, Illustrator opens but the file doesn't. Stranger yet, the file appears in the Recent list.I'll mention this in the Illustrator forum as well, to cover both ends of the problem.

When I a open a picture in Camera Raw 12.3 version on iMac, I am not able to see/find white balance tool. How and where can I find it. I see the toggle sampler but not the white balance icon/tool. Please let me know how and where can I find it. Thanks 

As soon as i open Bridge CC 2019 my internet bandwidth seems to limited to a bunch of Kbps. I just updated it from CC 2018. In the 2018 version, for some reason, the software used at 100% my integrated gpu, and browsers did slow down. The 2019 version does not seem to have problems with CPU or GPU usage (at leas from what i see from task manager), but it kinda limits my bandwidth! As soon as i open bridge while watching a video on youtube or something i see the speed in my monitoring software falling down from 10Mbps to some Kbps. But i can't see any bandwidth usage in the task manager excluding the browser in which i am watching the video. This is really strange. While bridge uses the bandwidth i can't even connect to the local router admin page, it just does not work.I am on a dell xps 9560 and windows 10.Just scanned my system with malawarebyes and found nothing wrong.

To all the ACR developers , I hope this post will be read by you : If you wanted to “kill” ACR - you did the right move- I am a very heavy user ( and a teacher) of ACR since day 1. I am sadly realized today that this new version makes my workflow double time (and not beacause of "getting use״  to the new version reason)There are so many “shortcuts” that are now missing , if you are using the ACR with multiply images editing - your workflow is taking double time as I wrote.I will give you 2 case samples (2 of many more) :1- selective brush use to have “+” and “-“ on each editing slide. Now it’s missing. This effecting 3 slowing down issues-A- you cant “jump” In the slide by clicking +/-.B- If you go to next image, the slide is reset automatically. You can’t use the Same brush As you used in the previous image editing. This is BIG BIG BIG hassle !!! If you want to edit the with same Brush setting – you need to reset and adjust the brush. if you need to do the same editing on ne

Dear community, I am currently working on a project to push all the pictures from our products into a new centralised system. In order to do so, I need to enter manually a number of metadata, and I am trying to figure out a way to ease the process. I have been directed to Bridge, but to be honnest, my knowledge of the software is pretty limited. Is there a way to easily:- add filters for sorting?- extract the results (filenames) into a format that you be used in excel?The main thing I need to do is get the colours (CMYK, Pantones, etc.) for each picture, but depending of the file type, it is not available in the same fields. I did manage to filter by color mode, but cannot seem to export "just" the filenames, and I cannot figure out how to get Plates into the filters.Do you have any idea if this is feasible? If not, can you think of another (cheap) software I could use? We are not willing to invest too much for a one off exercise...Thank you for your support 🙂

I have a new PC running Windows 10. My thumbnails were showing up in Bridge until I went into preferences and changed the background color to a lighter grey. Then, they stopped working. I can only see the CR2 sybols in my folders.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge, installed two earlier versions, retarted my computer, re-checked and reset my preferences with my second computer's Bridge settings, increased the "do not process files larger than..." and everything else I've found on this page and the web. I am currently in the newest CC version of Bridge, but I've tried three different ones. I am very frustrated. Please help.   Can't figure out how to delete this, but I read a new post and realized it was b/c I had gone back to the earlier version of ACR. I followed the Bridge recommendation and that worked...

Dopo l'ultimo aggiornamento Bridge non visualizza piu le anteprime dei vari file raw, RAF e ARW, Cosa devo fare??? E mai possibile che dopo un aggiornamento perdo il lavoro di anni????

Whenever I plug in the camera SD card or the portable drive I store photos on, Photo Downloader automatically starts downloading all files from them.  This started with the latest Bridge update a few weeks ago.  How do I turn this off. It is not in Edit- preferences, that I can find.

Hello Everyone,  I have been using Adobe Bridge on Windows 10 to organzie and delete my photos. Ive spent about a week working on deleting duplicates and blurry images. I just noticed yesterday that all of my photos that I deleted, and emptied my recyling are now back as if the days and hours I just spent didn't happen. Ive seen that this has also been an issue for Mac users and there have been resolutions, but I haven't found any helpful tips for windows.  

I just installed bridge.  I have lightroom CC. Synching on lightroom works fine between all of my devices. Bridge does not show any of my files.  How do I see my files in my cloud? 

In Bridge, the thumbnails aren't showing. I didn't like the latest update (it would take way to long -- about 10 seconds -- to get the next image up in Camera Raw), so I tried to use Camera Raw 12.2 . Now, in Bridge, it will only show the PS icon. I've tried to make the Preferences give the larger (10000 mb) thumbnails, but that didn't work. Any suggestions?
