Bridge

I consistently experience Bridge become completely, or at least primarily, unresponsive whenever another Adobe program is busy. The most spcific and usual suspect is InDesign. Whenever it is exporting, re-numbering pages, group relinking, saving or other general common tasks, Bridge becomes unusable and freezes with a white screen (Windows 10). This also happens with Photoshop too, if its saving or opening or othr such tasks Bridge freezes. This is independant of whether or not Bridge was a part of the process. Like im not opening from Bridge, or exporting to a folder that Bridge has open. I can start Bridge after Indesign has begun a process and Bridge remains unresponsive until InDesign is done its task. This forces me to fall back on Windows Explorer to do any navigating through folders and keep working while the other program finishes its task.  Why is this? Are there plans to aleviate this strange dependancy? Any tips to keep Bridge from freezing when another A

Can someone help me modify this Bridge script?  I have used scripts to add file and folder names to the metadata description field and I am trying to adapt one of those scripts to add keywords. But when the keywords are added they end up with quotation marks around the result."keywords; keywords; keyword3" I think the reason is that I am not adding new keywords as part of an array but as a string. But I'm having trouble correcting that. Note that I do not get quotation marks when I use this line of code: Desc=Desc.toString() + "" + FolderName;And with the above line, the script adds the keyword but without a separation of space or commaBut when I modify the line to add semicolon and space I get the quotation marks: Desc=Desc.toString() + "; " + FolderName;The resulting keywords are like this "apple; testfolder"  (in this case apple was an existing keyword that I want to keep and testfolder is the folder containing the selected files. Here is the code.

What happened to Bridge 2020? It's showing icons, not prviews.See Attached

Another update, another bunch of glitches hampering my productivity. Any suggestion on how to fix this? do i need to revert, yet again? Edit* i reverted and its working again, Adobe, please stop releasing buggy, untested software - your PAYING CUSTOMERS should not be used as beta testers.

When trying to access the Camera Raw editor in Bridge 2020, I get an error message saying "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature. " However, I used to be able to use the editor previously so this is a new error. I am using MacOS Catalina 10.15.6 and Bridge 10.1.1 and I have a licensed version of Photoshop CS3.  This error seems to have happened since upgrading to Catalina. CS3 cannot run in Catalina due to the upgrade to 64-bit technology.  While running on the previous iOS I was able to use the Raw Editor. I am unable to find any discussion on the internet on this specific problem with internet searches so any advise will be welcome.

I just installed Bridge, clicking the icon does nothing. Task Manager says a Bridge process spawns, but it's immediately killed. I've added an exclusion in Windows Security, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I've tried installing an older version, I've reset my PC multiple times. I've also tried running as administrator and running from terminal, nothing happens Edit: My PC InfoRyzen 5 3600RTX 2070 (non-super)Windows 10 Home Insider Build 20161.1000Nvidia Graphics Driver v451.67

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if Bridge might be a good tool for my project. I'm part of a small team that is using photos in development of a computer-vision product. We regularly have hundreds of new photos that we need to review, tagging them on photographic characteristics that matter for our product (blur, brightness) and on their content (for a simple example, does this image have a dog in it? a cat?). Once we've reviewed the image set, we release it to the computer-vision developers, who run automated tests on it by filtering it to certain subsets or checking how well their software's interpretation matched the human interpretation. Our team is distributed, not at a single site, not with a common file server (other than Dropbox). A couple of people act as image labelers and reviewers, and a couple more pull images for testing. You'd think there would be great tools for exactly this, and maybe there are, but I haven't found one. Many of them are focused on the act of rev

I can´t find the way to have "preview only sharpen" option on Camera Raw 12.3Thanks

Still another problem with CC Bridge that should never have been released in its current bug-ridden state.  After doing my cropping and sometimes exposure adjustments in RAW, I go to then rate and weed the results in Bridge.  Only none of the results are showing.  XMP hidden files can be displayed but are not having the effect, so the images look as though nothing was done. Or after a long period of time, a row may show the effects.  I press the space bar to get full screen, rate and arrow to the next one, and then after a few, no crop again.I tried clearing the cache and purging and enlarging the camera raw cache from 5G to 50G but no effect.  This never happened in CS6, but of course the only reason I got CC was to read Nikon Z7 files which they wouldn't make available for CS6. 

For a few years now, we have been having on and off issues with Bridge reading some of our camera rar images from one computer to another computer. The Camera RAW edited images seem fine on OG computer but once opened in Bridge on another computer some of the file's edits do not appear and image revert back to their "out of camera" form with all ratings and labels removed. Not sure if Bridge can not see the XMP's or some premissions are not allowed. If they are opened again in Camera Raw on "new" computer, it opens a unedited rar then proceeds to overwrite with new data when saved. We've tried purging cache several times on each computer, adding to file handing and reset settings / workspaces as seen in similar posts but nothing seems to work. We have this issue pop up a couple times a year so it's hard to pinpoint what the issue is. We usaully have to work around the problem and run the images seperatly from the respective computers they were edited on. Which is ti

The bridge-acr workflow is unusable after the update. - in bridge, image icon and image preview have different colors - in ACR the geometry/perspective control is bugged.- bridge uses 8gb of RAM being in a folder with only  40 items- in ACR you can't right click and zoom 66, 100, 200%,- in ACR you cant scroll photos with mouse wheel- in ACR, selecting few photos (shift+click) you may click the export icon WHAT ARE YOU DOING????It's a professional tool, we pay for it, damn.

Dear Adobe, You took out the Preview-only sharpening in the latest ACR update. Please restore it. Thanks. 

The option to not apply sharpening to images when processing them in Camera Raw seems to have dissapeared in 10.1.0.163.  How does one stop Camera Raw from applying sharpening to images sent to Photoshop?

Help? New ACR 12.3 Update has me in a mess.I like to soft crop images then save. But, I can't seem to crop with out a size? Whats up with that. I usually leave size blank at 300 dpi. But, I can't for some reason.

I opened bridge today and it had a pop-up asking if I wanted to see the new interface so I thought I would check it out. To my dismay all I saw was Lightroom's clunky interface, Does anyone know how to switch it back to the original Camera Raw editor?  I tried uninstalling bridge and re-installing but that pop-up doesnt show up. 

Just got the latest updates for both photoshop and bridge, I can no longer name folders in bridge.  I have to go into file explorer to name the new folders when I want to seperate my images.  That is annoying.  Furthermore, not when I have both bridge open and photoshop it is maxing out the RAM I have in my computer ( I have way more then enough).  Before the update not a problem with any program, but this is starting to became a problem.  I switched back to adobe from another program for that reasons, now haveing it with these.  What the heck is going on.....

Hello  I'm hoping to find a way to auto stack my raw+jpeg images, so that when I'm culling through photos I don't have to see both versions. I really hope I'm missing something as other adobe products like lr do this very easily. 

Dear community, I am currently working on a project to push all teh 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 teher 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 🙂

When I connect my camera, Canon Eos 7D thepictures can not be down loaded from the camera. I have a Cable and the camera is found by Bridge. Do I need to reinstall Bridge? 

Hello! My bridge tags have stopped working! I can't make a selection of photos! What is the problem?

On my Mac Mini I organized a pile of images using keywords. I made a backup of the list of keywords and loaded it into my macbook pro.Unfortunately when the list of keywords appeared in Bridge and I connected to the server with the images no search was able to find anything that still could be found with the mac mini.I would be very happy to get help in this topic. Thank you!

Hi.  I recently upgraded to Catalina and now my version of Adobe Bridge CS5 doesn't even open anymore.  Its name has changed to Adobe Bridge CS5 alias.  I can't figure out how to upgrade it and I'm not particularly talented with this type of stuff.  Is anyone aware of how a ludite like me can update Bridge?  Much appreciated and apologies if its a stupid question. 

Hallo. Ich möchte in der Adobe Bridge ein Bild mit ‚Luminar 4‘ öffnen. Ich öffne in ‚Adobe Bridge‘ auf einem Bild mit der RMT das Kontext-Menü und es erscheint ‚Öffnen mit‘. Dahinter verbergen sich ‚Photoshop‘ und ‚Lightroom‘. Zu dieser Menü-Auswahl möchte ich das Programm ‚Luminar 4‘ hinzufügen. In den Einstellungen gibt es hierzu keinen Hinweis. Ich habe auch schon den Goggel befragt, aber keine Lösung gefunden. Da ich ‚Lightroom‘ nicht nutze, wäre es schon eine Lösung für mich, wenn ich den ‚Öffnen mit-Lightroom‘ durch ‚Öffnen mit-Luminar 4‘ ersetzen könnte. Hast Du einen Tip oder eine Lösung für mich? Gruß Hans

Hi, I usually use adobe CC on my desktop computer, on win10 I think, no problem.At the moment, I'm on holidays, and, I took an old laptop to work (just a bit) . It runs win8.1. That laptop runs a copy of PS and LR. It's only used once a year... pricisely during my holidays.But this year, I need to install Bridge and AI... Unfortunaletly, I cannot install them bescause the new version seems to accept only win7 and Win10...I hope i'm on the right group.Can someone help me ?Thanks,Chris

There used to be a way that if I launched Bridge it would open to a blank window by default rather than remember the last set of files I was working with. Is that not possible anymore?
