Bridge

I updated PS to the 21.0.2 and left the older version on my PC (windows). I set the Bridge preferences to have the 21.0.2 version be the default. However, when I use Bridge to open an image in RAW then click Open File, RAW opens the older version instead of the new 21.0.2 version of PS. I looked for something in RAW to set a default but found no way to do it. Is this an operator error or an Adobe error?  

Hi there, I am trying to batch rename and the preview does not fit on the screen. I am running on Windows 10, and on the recommended Windows resolution 1920x1080. I realize that Bridge is asking for a minimum of 2560 x 1600. What a bummer.Can anyone help?  Please be advised, I am not a techie:)  

The information box that pops up on each file when hovering over, is constantly on my screen. How do you get it to go away?

After the first update Bridge 2020 still usless. You take our money every month. Record profits. PLEASE HIRE ENOUGH COMPETENT PEOPLE AND FIX THIS! PLEASE!

Help! I unplugged my laptop from our network to take it home, and when I later plugged it back in and launched Bridge, all the remote drives and outboard hard drives appeared in the main window with lock symbols in the top right hand corner. Clicking on the drive icon just opens a Finder window, rather than Bridge. If I right-click and go 'Unlock Item' nothing happens. What's wrong? Or what am I doing wrong?

In previous versions of Bridge, I had several folders set up as "favorites", upon "updating" to 2020, those folders are gone.  And Bridge has no intention of letting me set them back up.  All attempts to set up folders as favorite causes the app to pause "to think about it",  then do nothing... Anyone else run into this annoying bug?

Hey, Going to try to give as much information as possible. I shot a session through Capture Pro and all imagery was saved in to a session file on my MacBook hardrive ( operating Mojave 10.14.3 ). All imagery was saved and fine, I went to generate a contact sheet through Bridge and I believe I must have pressed a short cut that deleted the files out of Bridge but in doing so it removed them from my Macbook entirely. They are not in the trash on the system, it was emptied automatically is what I'm presuming. I have run recovery software ( EASEUS DATA RECOVERY ) and it pulls through the imagery data but not the images themselves. I've seen other people discussing the issue of Bridge removing files from a hardrive but I've not seen any back steps to take to recover. If there is any steps someone can suggest I would be really appreciate it.  

I used Bridge to assign keywords of family members to more than 500 digitized photographs.  I gave each daughter a USB of these photos which they view on a digital frame.  My goal in assigning keywords per photo was to enable my family (and future generations) to learn the identity of past generations, great grandparents and such.... While I can see the embedded keywords when I open a photo in Windows/Pictures, neither of my daughters can see those tags when they tried to open a file on their computers.   Feels like I did a lot of work for no return. Other than creating an Excel with each file name and columns of individual's name per image (a time-consuming project), I don't know how to embed keywords so that they are viewable by other users on another computer. I looked up exporting keywords, but that's just the list of keywords, it is not cvs format to import into excel. I appreciate any help with this.

Hi I'm new to Adobe Bridge. Lightweight programs like FastStone, Imagine, or FastPicture viewer have an ability to allow the user to click the GPS data and open up the GPS program of choice (e.g. Google Map) so I can see where the picture was taken. In Adobe Bridge, is there an one-click solution to view the coordinate on a map? Or do I have to manually enter the data on Google Map? Thanks

I just updated to Bridge v10.0.1.126; running Mac OS Mojave v10.14.6 on an Apple Mac Pro.  My Custom Workspaces are not showing up in the new Bridge. I checked, and my Custom Workspaces are in the correct folder as follows: User > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Bridge CC 2020 > Workspaces I rather not have to recreate all my custom workspaces. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated! Mark W.

Hello together, since Bridge 10 i no more can open a bunch of selected jpgs or every other types with the option "open with" in context or in the dropdown menu "file"   I can open only 1 file with that feature, if i select only 2 the context option "open with" is gone or greyed out.   This drives me crazy while i do this the whole day and i can see no reason why this elemantary feature is gone?   Can someone help me out with this? Thanks and regards   {Thread renamed by moderator}

I have recently started using Bridge 2020 on a MacBook Pro High Sierra (coming from the old Bridge CS5).  There are a number of degradations in the new Bridge 2020 and I can't see what's actually better - overall it seems to be clumsy port of the old bridge which worked rather well.  I shall create a different thread for each problem. My Macbook pro is 13" and the inbuilt retina screen has 2560 x 1600 pixels.  I routinely use files having 900x1350 pixels.  Under the old bridge, when viewing the file using "Full Screen Preview", it would zoom into the file and would fill in the screen so that the height is scaled up (1350 to 1600).  The same problem exists for the Slideshow functionality.  AFAIK there is no option to tell Bridge to scale up Previews.... I can see the rationale for this, but there ought to be at least a preference option allowing scale up.  This problem did not exist under Bridge CS5. Thanks in advance

I'm running a legitimate copy of Adobe Design Standard CS6 on a Windows 10 HP laptop.Whenever I open Bridge it utterly kills my internet connection on my machine within 10 - 20 seconds. This lasts as long as Bridge is running - no browser or email client can connect outside.When I exit Bridge, the connection comes back eventually by itself but may take a few minutes. It makes no difference if I already have another Adobe product open at the time or not (Illustrator or Photoshop etc), they do not kill the connection ever, it's only when Bridge opens that the troubles start. I have run this suite on another machine previously with no troubles.I have:Closed all other softwareCleared the cacheUninstalled and then re-installed CS6 suiteRun the troubleshooter on Windows internet connections - no issues foundEnsured Bridge is ticked for Firewall access in Kaspersky Internet Security 2018What am I missing here?

Bridge 8.0.1.282 on macOS 10.13.4I just started using Bridge and have noticed many of my descriptions (IPTC comment field) are not showing up in the metadata panel. They do show up when I do a Get Info on the file in Finder and I can also see them via exiftool in Terminal. The issue spans both scanned pictures and several camera models. I am a recent convert to the mac so most of the descriptions were created using Irfanview or Picassa on Windows, if that makes any difference. Any suggestions on what might be the issue? And what I may do about it?  Thanks

Hi,I am using the Loupe in Bridge to compare quality of two images. I select them together and display them side-by-side and want to compare the quality at 100%. But, the 100% in one appears to be zoomed in at 400%. In the attached image I have zoomed up one to 400% to show that the 400% in one appears to be the same as 100% in the other, and they are both basically the same frames.What could be wrong here?Thanks

Hello Adobe Community,  For years I've had the following problem whe using Adobe Bridge and I'm hoping someone can help me get rid of this issue: When I doule click on a file (say an inDesign file for example) to open in it's program just fine.  But when I go back to Bridge to try to click another file it's frozen/unresponsive.  If I click outside of the Bridge window (say on the Desktop), then BACK into Bridge to make the window active, it fixes the problem - for that one time.  It happens a lot.  Any thoughts?  I've re-installed Bridge over the years, and have constantly upgraded (including the new update from this week) but the same thing always happens.  I hate having to do an extra click outside the Bridge window to unfreeze it and interact with it again. Help!  Any thoughts?  Thanks! - Tony

I’m a new user of Adobe products. I exported my Apple Photos library to a new file on my iMac.  That file is on my hard drive, with no connection to the originating Apple Photos system. The 16,000 exported photos have multiples of 90+ keywords associated to them.  When I click on the ‘Keywords’ tab, I see some of those keywords.  I primarily see different, and inconsistently populated keywords. I tried to create some, and only some are populated. Within the ‘Filters’ tab, I see all of the keywords that are associated to the photos. Is there a way to reconcile the listing of keywords across ‘Keyword and Filter views’ of keywords? When I look at these photos in Adobe Bridge 2020, on the ‘Filter’ tab within, the ‘Keywords or Essentials views’ I can filter the photos on any/all of those keywords. This works fine, but is cumbersome. Is there a way to bundle groups of keywords, so I can open or close grouping of keywords to look/select. As it is now, I have to g

Hi on my new imac 3,6 GHz 8‑Core Intel Core i9 (retina 5k) + LG UltraFine Display 4k , Radeon Pro Vega 48 with 8 GB, 72gb ram, 1TB ssd the adobe bridge is too slow it take minutes to see the content and when I leave a folder and open it again it  take again minutes too load the content. I tried adobe cc2019 and adobe cc2020 first on osx mojave and now on osx catalina - still the same problem. My old mac pro 2013 has not this problem with the same extern ssd. May be a support problem with the graphic card? waiting now 5 months for a patch fix. 

I would like to split all three columns in Bridge. The maximum number of open panels seems to be 5. Is there a way to display 6 open panels? I would like to use something like the "Filmstrip" workspace, but I would like to split the panel space on the right, the way the space is split in the middle and on the left. None of the default workspace options have all three columns of panels split.   [Moving from generic Start/Help forum to the specific Program forum...

Hi Everybody. After updating to Bridge 2020 yesterday, the colors in the preview window are completely off.This happens with all files. Raw, .jpg, .psd ...Any ideas how to fix this?   Thanks!   Equipment:Bridge 10.0.0.124Mac Book Pro, 2015, Mojave 10.14.6Eizo CS2730  

For some reason installing the new Bridge CC 2019 (and After Effects CC 2019) seemed to have done something to text animation previews in Bridge.I just want to browse through the text animations to find one that works for my project. But when I now select an individual animation just a still thumbnail comes up as a preview with no controls to play etc.  There is no animation in the preview - just a still image. Am I just being really thick? Or do I have to change a setting somewhere?
