Hi, I have used adobe PS and bridge for years. Suddenly I cannot rename a folder or image using mouse right click. This no longer highlights the folder name etc. Folder definately not open in windows or another program, no message when R click just nothing. Bridge totally up to date and cache compressed. All preferences reset. Any ideas? Ive found a workaround by using "reveal in explorer" and renaming there but would rather have straight forward R click to rename.
Hi, I've tried deleting & reinstalling bridge however the same issue occurs where I'm unable to see the file names as it cuts most of the titles off. Previously this was fine, though for a few months now it's become annoying. Also unable to rename folders in Bridge & have to reveal in finder to do so on the folder itself. Any help to resolve this would be great. Thanks
Hello everyone. I am getting frustrated because Adobe Support keeps transferring me and wont get a response until 2 almost 3 hours later. My app for Bridge doesnt work. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it will not open at all. I dont get an error message or anything. Has anyone else run into this issue? THank you for your time.
cant change the fonts on my laptop . they are to small for reading!! see the setup for the Camera Raw interface. the only thing that changes when i setup the preferances are the fonts on the Bridge (not the ACR or the camera downlader). i have trued also to shange the fonts ot the win font size to 150% > nada
HiCan not open lately Ai, SVG, PDF files, with Illustrator 2020, from Bridge 2020
Hi,ich komme nicht mehr über Bridge auf mein NAS von Synology. Es werden mir nur die Ordner auf dem NAS angezeigt, aber diese sind mit einem Schloss versehen und gesperrt. Ich nutze einen Windows PC mit WINN10 pro. Aus dem Explorer lässt sich alles öffnen. Aus Photoshop auch und in Lightroom ebenso. Ich komme nur nicht über Bridge auf die Fotos. Ich habe Bridge immer zum sortieren genommen. Alles was lokal oder auf USB liegt ist kein Problem nur was auf dem NAS liegt. Woran kann das liegen. Warum erkennt das Bridge nicht bzw. sperrt alle Ordner? Wie gebe ich das frei?
I use bridge to apply my metabata including key words.Ther are some file that the data just does not seem to want to attach to.I keyword it - wait to see the update appears in the metadata window and lock the file.When I go back to the file (even just a minute or so later the data is gone, even though the file is still locked)Currntly have about 40 image that this is happening on but may be more in other folders.What am I doing wrong, if anything?
hello I am pretty sure there is something is not going properly with my BRAND new MACBOOK PRO 16 inch.When I open a folder with 100/200 raw images ,with Adobe bridge , it takes a while to preview them and there is always the round spinning icon playing. what is the problem?How should I solve it?
on a Mac, you can't use a trackpad or Wacom tablet with Bridge to scroll; it goes WAAAAAY too fast. You have to use the down arrow in the scrollbar. Anyone have any hacks or tricks to make it more reasonable? Adobe clearly couldn't care less.
I see that you can save the contact sheets as a PDF but how do I save it if I want to come back to it later and make changes?
I decided to create a workflow on a Windows 10 PC that launches BRIDGE when the card reader initiates after inserting the camera card. The idea is to convert my 14bit Raw Nikon NEF files from my Z6 into DNG files and place them in a a directory so that I can import them into Lightroom. As part of this I want to copy a backup file in the original NEF format. Why is it that I can not change the default targe (#1 in the attached image) and why do I alwasy get an error message that states the DNG froles can not be created as requested in the check box. This really should be a basic functionality that BRIDGE should support as I can perform the task manually in Lightroom Classic but sadly not in Lightroom (CC) Photoshop. There has to be a way to set a different default directory and make this work that I am just missing
CR shows file assoc. for CR3 but there is no image preview on the down loader. I have the latest ver. of Bridge, CR and PS.
Using latest 10.3 on Win10, audio preview of mono wav files only plays in the right channel.
Help. Going a bit bananas. I am diving back into my old photography hobby more seriously and need help selecting the best Adobe program to use. Last week, I used Lightroom CC to import >60,000 images into a consolidated directory. I chose to copy each original into a new location (networked drive) and, in so doing, de-duped many thousands of images. Images previsouly spread across iCloud, Google Photos, DropBox etc are now consolidated into this single Lightroom originals folder. This equates to ~400GB. There is another ~700GB of video to be imported, although this may contain significant duplication. Next comes the digitization of 10 years worth of slides and negatives (which, of course, has zero meta-data). Before I embark on that endeavor, I want to have my photography collection management strategy dialed in. Lightroom CC is steadily working to cloud sync. Process is very slow, but steady. Additionally, my network drive is backed-up to cloud (Backblaze), so
EDIT: I have rolled back to version 9.1.0 and this problem is gone. Not sure what was broken in the later updates, but it makes the app borderline unusable. Hopefully I don't get force-updated out of this (working) version. So for the last several months, Bridge CC has had terrible performance, with preview/thumbnail generation taking much longer than it ever did in the past, using 100% of CPU resources while doing so, constantly locking up and even locking up overall system function, even with Bridge.exe set to low priority. This happens on both systems I use (an i7-4790/24GB/GTX 980 desktop, and a i7-4712/16GB/Quadro K1100M laptop). Both are using SSD for storage. I have: Cleared bridge cache.Added dedicated bridge cache SSD to desktop system (no other use)Updated all CC software to newest versions as availableDone clean installations of CC software, graphics drivers on both systemsTried "prefer embedded" thumbnails (has no appreciable effect)Turned off exporting
An action I've created that runs well from inside Photoshop is not behaving in the same way (or so it seems) when triggered via Bridge/Tools/Photoshop/Batch. In short, the action processes an image layer through a color fill layer, stepping through 10 blend modes, "merging" each combination to a new layer before proceeding to the next blend. Then, it executes the "Layers to File" script, exporting those ten layers to a specified destination folder, and finally, closes the original file without saving changes to the file. Works as expected and intended inside Photoshop. Triggered from Bridge, it executes the multiple blend mode layers fine, but when it tries to run the "Layers to file" to save to a folder, it stops with a "duplicate image "dialog box. I've tried various options and overrides in the Batch dialog box, but I get a little lost trying to understand what's actually happening. I'm sure it's GIGO, but not sure why. Thoughts?
batch re-name not work on Bridge2020, jpeg files.
Possibly since I downloaded Catalina ( not certain) when I open a folder as a filmstrip in Bridge I get a strip of black boxes not the images as thumbnails. But when I click on each one they open OK. Any advice would be appreciated.John Price
I cannot open a group of ARW files in ACR 12.2 using Bridge 10.03.138. If fact I can't open one ARW with Bridge. I can Select the group of files in Photoshop and have them open as a group in ACR. This works fine with the same group of files a computer running Bridge 10.02.131 and ACR 12.1. Any Suggestions?
Hi, opening any jpg or raw file via bridge (10.0.3) in camera raw the program crashes, how can I solve 'thanks.
When double clicking on any file type in Bridge, it opens After Effects. This is regardless of what program is selected in "File Type Association". Selecting Photoshop or Illustrator does not work, even when reset. From the looks of this support community, this glitch has been a problem for well over a year. "Updating After Effects" is the most moderator sited fix which has not, and still does not work (I'm updated on both Br 10.0.3 and Ae 17.0.2), and "Uninstall After Effects" has been the fix suggested by the community which just straight up isn't happening as After Effects is a program I use daily and bridge is just a support program. Adobe Team, please, this needs a legitimate, long term, fix. It's unacceptable for a high-tier developer to have such a long standing, reoccuring bug associated with the 2nd most common computer imput (double-click). Please stop suggesting "have you tried turning it off and back on again?" or making buggy patches. It's unsulting to your users
I use Bridge to edit Title and keywords on my images, then I upload to Adobe Stock.When I put keywords on my images I usually do it with copy and paste from internet sites.However usually my images have almost 50 keywords, and I want to limit this number.Is there a way to limit the number of keywords in Bridge, or, better yet, cut some of them in Bridge with the purpose to have at most 30 of them in every image?Thanks in advance
As the title suggests. I have tried setting keywords via adobe bridge and on illustrator itself but when i upload the AI file via the contributor portal they dont show only the auto generated ones. Same goes for title. Any help would be appriciated.
Hello, I work for a small program that is looking to use bridge to better search for and organize our photos (~50,000 or so). I've gotten it up and running on my machine and keyworded some batches of photos and the search feature seems to work at a reasonable speed for the folders that have already been indexed. I did a test run of exporting the cache for a specific sub-folder with about 400 photos and my coworker was able to import the cache and search within that at a reasonable speed. However, the export process took several minutes as did the import process on her computer, and that was just a sub-folder in a much larger photos folder we would like to export the cache for. My question is- how often do you need to re-export a shared cache (and have all users import that version to their machine)? Does this need to be done every time a single photo is deleted, moved, renamed, rekeyworded? I understand that the process of generating the cache for all users is time-cons
When Bridge opens on the folder it was last opened/closed in, it takes a long time to load, constantly 'building criteria' as if all the images are newly imported. I've searched the forums, have tried all the tweaks and settings, but it's still iceberg slow. Bridge CS5 is noticeably quicker, as if the cache info is being read immediately. CS6 is behaving as if the cache file has been deleted. It hasn't. I have tried the "flush the cache" to see if maybe it's corrupted. No joy. I have boosted cache size. No joy. I've compacted, automatically exported cache to folders, everything... Nothing seems to fix the snail slowness.
