Bridge

First of all, I love Bridge. Then I updated to Bridge CS3 and was introduced to a basic spartan interface that is missing the easy to use icon links for functions. I can't find "list view"– no option in drop down menu. There's no "file path" that I can see or bring to view– it used to be on top. I need that to locate sources. I can't find "search engine"– where's the manifying glass? Did I update Bridge with missing accoutrements? Humbly yours, j.

Since updating to Bridge 2020, upon opening the program I get the following notification (translated from German):Proxy-Error: An error has occurred while establishing an Internet connection via the proxy server in your network. Contact your network administrator. What is really annoying, is that this message pops up again every 15-20 minutes. When I leave my PC on over the weekend, I have to click first "OK" for at least hundred times until all popups are closing. In our company the Internet is blocked via Proxy and only specific ports/websites are whitelisted. We already whitelisted a lot of domains to get the Creative Cloud to work. After searching I found the below website and we also added all addresses listed here as well to our whitelist.https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/kb/network-endpoints.html However the error message still occurs (although only once now, before adding these domains it popped up twice each time).It would be great to know the specific err

I updated all my CC apps last week (13 November, 2019) and all of them have been working fine except Bridge. The first time I attempted to use it after the update, it opened and closed in the blink of an eye. No error message, no anything. Just there and gone. When restarting Bridge, I held Ctrl+Alt+Shift to reset the Preferences. I also reset my Workspaces. Bridge opened but as soon as I navigated to a different folder or attempted to open a Photoshop or Illustrator file, it crashed again. No error message, it was just gone. I attempted to reopen the app only to have it open and close immediately (no error message, just there and gone again). Again I reset the Preferences and Workspaces to get it to open. I opened a few files, navigated to a few folders before it crashed AGAIN. The only way I can get Bridge to successfully open, not necesarily function, is to reset the Preference and Workstapces. For two days, I have had to reset my Preferences and Workspaces so many ti

Dear Community, everytime I open Bridge 2019 or 2020, the CPU explodes to more than 500%. My iMac freezes, I get a message: "disk is full", so I cannot even save my open files, it is simply impossible to work in this situation. I see that a similar issue was discussed more than one year ago, but apparently there was no solution. Can somebody help me?I work with iMac Retina 5K 27-inch late 20144 GHz Intel Core i7 quad-core32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4 GBmacOS Catalina 10.15Thank you for your help. It's a nightmare! 

When i try to open or browse cr2 files on my imac Mojave 10.14.6 it just hangs and i need to force quit to close it.I can browse select and edit the same files on my windows laptop without any issues

Hi, I'm running Adobe Bridge 2017 (and Photoshop 2015.5) and was unaware that the link to batch converting files in Photoshop is no longer there. Instead there's one single option to Process Collection in Photoshop. I wanted to convert and resize 2 TIFF images to JPG and mindlessly clicked on this option. A process then began automatically whereby 60 of my images started getting "processed" -- incidentally, I have no idea what kind of processing it was applying since no intervening screen came up asking me what I wanted to do -- with numbers being placed on the image thumbnails. It's only then that I realized that this thing doesn't work as before, and wondered where is the Photoshop option to do various different things, as before.I quickly bailed out of there (by force-quitting, hope that wasn't a mistake) but now when I open Bridge, it's stuck on that process. It's showing various thumbnails with these strange numbers on them, and only a partial amount of the images in that file. I

when I rename in batch even just a few images, the program does not respond and crashes 

Whom ever can help me.. please do! Why is my preview in Bridge of a Jpeg image changed to looking over exposed after having the Jpeg image imported from Lightroom?  Even when I look in PS it looks normal but it will not generate a normal preview in Bridge.  Its only starting doing this.  Lightroom and Bridge dont seem to be sinking like it used to.  My version of Bridge is 5.0.2.4 and Lightroom 4.4-CR7.4. Thanks

I'm using Catalina 10.15.1 and Bridge 2020. After processing a RAW image the thumbnail is sometimes displayed with an overall pink hue. Using Tools=>Cache=>Purge Cache restores the thumbnail.         {thread title edited by moderator}

Hi, even logging off to the Adobe Cloud from Windows 10 Home my Adobe Cloud Login Windows Pro does not upgrade to Bridge 10.

I updated bridge, which had been working just fine, but I felt like I should keep everything updated. What a mistake. Now bridge won't open - at all - yet half these forums have troubleshoot steps for when bridge is OPEN. Which I did do, because after I installed it - it opened ONCE + then wouldn't rate pictures, so I reset all the preferences + closed it, once it was closed it would not start up again at all... I deleted every adobe related product off my computer using Adobe's CC Cleaner because whenever I'd go to uninstall bridge it would say it was running + re-downloaded them all. I'm half tempted to just bite the bullet and buy Photo Mechanic because I can't figure out this bug at all + no information listed online helps whatsoever. I also now have issues when selecting "import" in Lightroom, all because I updated bridge. So, I decided to go back to the version of bridge I'd previously used + it doesn't work either.... + lightroom still won't allow me to import files while Bridge

How do we copy or move only images that we have selected (with labels) located in a substructure (subfolders) (keeping the structure of folders in the new location)? I see that we can copy/move selected images in a specific folder easily with the help of the filter, but is it possible to copy/move only labeled images in a tree structure? Is there any way this would be possible without doing it subfolder by subfolder?

I am trying to edit my photos in the Camera Raw program within Bridge. Every time I use to function it delays so long that it freezes up. For example, I am using the spot removal tool. I click on the spot, I get colorful wheel of death then the action applies. It should apply right as I select the area. What used to take me just a few seconds to edit is now taking me minutes to complete. The whole program is lagging and has progressively gotten worse as the week has gone on. I have uninstalled all my adobe programs and reinstalled them and there is still no improvements. I am using macOS Mojave 10.14.6 as I am terrified to upgrade to Catalina with all the issues I've heard about recently.  Of course this happens when I have hundreds of photos to retouch for a major deadline. Can someone please help me?

In previous versions of Bridge when I moved photos and there were mulitple images that were locked it would ask if I was sure to move those (yes or no) plus there would be a checkbox "apply to all".That checkbox is gone and that ticks me off enormously.Can I get it back somehow?

Hi, in the new Bridge 2020, the previews colors of .psd especially is absolutely wrong, to much green and shadows are very dark. No problem in PS. That's absolutely not useful.I tried to reinstall Bridge 2019, and no colors problems if i refresh the preview with a purge of the cache of the file. If i go back to Bridge 2020 and i reflesh the preview, the colors become wrong again. So the preview module of Bridge 2020 is absolutely broken, you need to keep the one from 2019 version.

Dear all, I'm creating a custom metadata extension for Bridge and I've a little question..I want to be able to add localized metas. The output would be :  <dc:description> <rdf:Alt> <rdf:li xml:lang="fr_FR">Description en fr</rdf:li> <rdf:li xml:lang="oc_OC">Description en oc</rdf:li> </rdf:Alt> </dc:description> Showing example with DC but would be applied to a custom namespace..Using the CC2014 UI SDK and did not find anything about that. Or missed it 😛Thanks a lot ! 

Hi, there About bridge's zoom function,Because the “magnifying glass” function is difficult to use, I want Adobe to make improvements. It was another product, but righthemisphere's "Deep exploration" was easy to use.(now, SAP Visual Enterprise Author) or, If there is a good way to zoom in and zoom out comfortably, please let me know. 

Hi, My images in Bridge are all in the Hidden folder. I cant get it back. Is there a way for me to stop my images from going into the hidden folder. 

Seem to be unable to do clean install of Bridge. What I have right now seems to have some corruptions. I use Revo Uninstaller which removes (I thought) 100% of any software. I want to start clean without any old preferences or old metadata settings in the new install. I clicked no to carrying over preferences and settings every time a popup window asked. The new install is the old install, everything followed! The problems the corruptions are giving me are I use to select a metadata template before downloading from the Flash Card. Now, I select before downloading and then, after downloading, I have to highlight all thumbnails and select the template again for that templete to work. Bridge just decides to download with whatever template it wants. Second problem this corruption does is I used to be able to click once on a thumbnail to work on it. I could double-click to open in Photoshop. Now, if I highlight a thumbnail anywhere (frame or image or file name) Bridge launches Photoshop, la

This is a pretty minor annoyance but it's been coming up for me a lot so I thought I'd post about it. I'm running Bridge 2020, though the same issue existed in 2019, on an imac running osx high sierra. This only occurs when I have multiple windows open in bridge.When I right-click an image and select purge cache for selection, after the thumbnail refreshes if I then immediately hit space to see the image full-screen, bridge will switch to a different open window and show whatever image is selected in that window at full-screen instead.

It used to be that when I hit space to preview an image full-screen, the mouse would disappear when the image came up. At some point that stopped happening, was this a change in Bridge or did I inadvertently change a setting?

When I batch rename selected files in Bridge, it's not renaming some files at the end of the batch. So I'll re-select those ones and try and batch rename them, and it'll do rename a few of them and then leave off some at the end again. It's also changing some JPEG files to CR2 files when I batch rename. 

I've posted a few days ago regarding my Bridge 2020 taking forever to load previews. Seems like the reason it's taking forever is because the previews are HR. I tried switching to Preferred Embeded but it won't switch, even though it says its on Preferred Embeded I still see all the HR previews loading hence it takes forever to generate previews. Any help would be appreciated.  Tried all the obvious fixes, nothing is working. I'm on Win 10, 64GB Ram, Inter iCore7, 6GB Ram video  So far tried rolling back to Version 19 of Bridge and PS, same result.  Thanks

Since updating to Bridge 2020, I have encountered nothing but problems.  Before Bridge 2020, I could open a folder of images in a few seconds.  Now, it takes three to six minutes to open a folder. Then, the process of generating previews (which previously took a minute or two  at most) essentially is never complete.  The program keeps telling me that it is generating previews for the next ten to fifteen minutes, at which point I give up waiting and try to open the images I need in Camera Raw.    This is usually a mistake, because about half the time, when I process the image I want and try to open it in Adobe Photoshop, my whole computer goes nuts. Bridge freezes; Camera Raw freezes.  I wait for five minutes or so.  The freeze is still on.  Bridge says that it is "not responding."   I try to close Bridge and Raw.  Nothing doing.   I go into Task Manager and try to close Bridge and Raw.  Nothing doing.
