Bridge

Im trying to edit the metadata on some image files that are .BMP and it will not allow me. I get the error code:" This property cannot be modified." They are my images. and while I cannot edit the meta data of the .bmp files, I CAN edit the JPG versions of the exact same images. Whats up? and no, it is not an issue of the under preferences and thumbnail changing the processing size to something higher. These files are well under the range able to be processed.any help greatly appreciated.

I have updated to Bridge 2020 today. When I connect an external hard drive or SD card reader they appear grayed out and I can't open the files. I was alway able to do this in old Bridge. I can't view my photos anymore. Please help. How do I get round this. I use MacBook Pro.

Anyone know what's going on ? 

Ok. I am running Catalina OS, updated to CC 2020 today and besides deleting the working version of Bridge 2018, I can't re-download it. I need the cut and paste function. Now, forced to do more steps, open the folder I need to move the file to, so that it shows in the selections for the move option to work, now the process of moving leaves a blank thumbnail behind, which has to be deleted manually. REQUEST:Restore the Cut and Paste Function - We need it.           -orRe-enable the download link for Bridge 2018. (which has the working feature of cut and paste working correctly)Correct the issue of temporary blank thumbnails after the move file process. 

I updated to Bridge 10.0 (and Photoshop 21.0) an hour ago. I worked on 10 images w/o a problem, then with one of them, the Bridge metadata reads the old color mode and size, and not what I had changed it to; from rgb to cmyk and from 12 inches to 6 inches wide. I checked 3 times; I opened it in Photoshop; I hit refresh in Bridge. No change. Could you help me?

As of this morning, Bridge (both 2015 and 2019) is effectively ignoring all the XMP files in ANY folder.  I had started editing a batch of images last Friday at work, made ratings choices, already had rotated images, and made global processing changes.  All I did was go home for the weekend and come back to work today.  But today no version of my Bridge applications work right.  None of the edits appear in the thumbnails or preview pane.  I can't rotate images.  I can't even OPEN an image into Photoshop from Bridge - it says PS doesn't recognize that type of file!!  What?  It sure has been recognizing it for the past 15 years - a simple Canon RAW file.  Trying to open a finished jpg results in PS saying "file not found."  Whoa, this is really messed up.This MUST all be connected to issues I had with Creative Cloud last week.  At some point, my Acrobat started saying I couldn't open any PDFs because CC couldn't verify/login to my CC

I am not a frequent user of Bridge, but the CC Desktop App shows me -as in the screen-clip. Why are there two versions? Do I have both? Why is one shown as "New"? Which one should I use? Clicking on the Oxford Cap (Mortarboard) shows both with same Information as Version 10!  

Bridge encoutered a problem and is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache preferences to the correct the situation. What shall I do to make the constantly failure fixed?

Hello!I've got a problem with previews in Adobe Bridge.My current os is 10.15 (19A603). 

Yesterday, I installed Bridge Version 9.1.0.338. It keeps freezing up when I try to move photos and video files from one folder on  the same external hard drive. I have to go force quit and open it again, but the same thing happens. I read about some recent issues regarding this, but the new update doesn't seem to fix it. Very frustrating as I use Bridge extensively for organizing my photo/image files. Many thanks.

I use Bridge at work for image processing and cataloging. I use a workstation with local image storage and a server for storage. Our network is Gig Ethernet, 10Gig to the server, Windows 7 Pro on the processing workstation. I have a decently fast i7 PC with 16GB of RAM. Fully updated Bridge CC.Frequently, I need to find and work with saved images in larger folders (over 9100 images currently) and/or nested folders. Most are JPEG files although I have smaller numbers of active PSD's as well.Listing these folders, even on the internal hard drive, takes forever. I understand that thumbnails and metadata are read but several minutes before I can work with anything is ridiculous. There are frequent "Not Responding" timeouts of a minute or two, lots and lots of lag, terrible performance. Delete or rename a file and the ENTIRE folder listing rebuilds, again taking several minutes. I frequently have to switch back and forth between folders and its painful to say the least. Bridge is by far the

PS Bridge show all images soft.  when I bring them into Phtoshop they are sharp. I'm on windows 10. In preferences; My view of images is set to "Keep 100% Previews in Casche.  Plus Casche is purgde every 30 days. I purged all local files. I searched the support community and didn't find anything on this problem. Seems like two updates ago I didn't have this problem. Any advice is greatly appreciated.    

Hello, is there a possibility to search adobe bridge for specific file types? For example - Search for all *.psd?Sincerely, Peter

All my application files have disappeared; attempting to open from shortcuts on desktop gets message that "The operation could not be completed. The specified volume could not be found." This applies to all creative cloud apps. The Creative Cloud Installer cannot be opened; I get the same message. Any suggestions?

I like to cull through my photos in Bridge using 100% previews.  When I open a folder, 100% previews are generated, and although it's slow it's worth the wait.  If I close down Bridge and then open the same folder the next day, the previews are generated again.  Is there a way to retain the 100% previews without having to generate them every time I reopen Bridge?

Help! I can work on one photo (or one set of photos) in Bridge but when I go back and choose another one to open in Bridge it always crashes. Every time.  For the last 70 times or more! I know the drive it is on is full. Could that be the problem? Also, when looking to see which drive it is on (I have 4) I saw these previous versions (in the photo). Can I delete the old versions or do I need to keep them?  Or can I move Bridge to my newer, larger drive? If so would I lose all my "Collections"? Thanks SO MUCH!  ~Valerie  

Well, Adobe did it again.  With the recent update to Bridge CC 2019, all imagepreviews are incredibly soft!2018 had the issue but adjusting settings would bring back preview qualitybut seemed to have been fixed.  Now, 2019 comes out and back to really,really soft previews and this time no manner of playing with settings willgive any kind of clarity to the preview.  It also does not matter if the imageneeded to be scaled to fit or the image fit in the window mapped 1:1 with the display pixels.This needs to be fixed!Fortunately, I did a system snapshot before I installed the update so I couldquickly revert back to Bridge CC 2018 which WORKS PROPERLY.

I'm in the process of developing a media and marketing department for my company. I would love to utilize Adobe products such as photoshop and lightroom for photo editing. I'm looking at bridge as a management software that ideally could be downloaded onto multiple PC's in my organization to search and view photos that I've uploaded. I've heard this can be done and is a great option. My problem is that I need to make sure that other PC's can be logged into the same account simultaniously to search and view through my uploads. Also, I understand that Adobe Bridge is free, but I've also been told that I would have to pay extra per license when I subscribe to the Creative Cloud.  In summary: 1) Will this work?2) Is it going to cost extra to use this service on top of my Creative Cloud subscription?  I've heard many different answers from Customer Support, please help!  Thank you for your time! Joe

We have tried to stadardize RGB color conversions within the Adobe products by using Bridge to manage the color settings.The issue is that we get different results when converting in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign even though the color settings are being managed by Bridge. Has anyone else experienced this? 

I can't figure out why my adobe bridge 2019 function help labels will not go away. once they open they stay on the screen until I quit. Everything is updated - not sure what else to do.

Hi,I recently updated Bridge on my Windows PC, and now when I double click an image instead of it automatically opening in  Camera Raw, Windows Photos App opens?  How do I stop that? Thanks,Ruth

Hey all, since updating to Catalina (10.1.5.1) on my macBookPro,  I can't use Adobe BRIDGE anymore without switching to "software rendering" which slows down the workflow extremely. I get ugly pixelated previews when I switch to hardware rendering since I updated my OS. Any advice? The support could'nt help at all. ( 3 sessions with new installations etc) 

Hi All, I am new to Bridge CC, trying to get away from Apple's Photos. Normally, I keep the photo in the SD card without deleting it automatically.  But when I download a second time, Bridge CC does not recognize that the photo has already been download and is downloading for the second time. Is there anyway to prevent this duplication?Many thanks,Apollo

My Macbook updated to a newer version last night. I've just opened up Adobe Bridge and there are no items to display when I select my folder to access my files. How can I make adobe Bridge display my files? 

I've used bridge many times to cull my photos before importing into lightroom. I select all the photos I choose to cull, and then click view>review mode. I deselect the photos I choose not to edit, and delete them, then import them into lightroom.  This time I am getting a red and purple screen that prohibits me from viewing the photos. I've tried searching this forum and I've uninstalled and reinstalled completely to no avail. This problem shows no where else on my computer, only on bridge's review mode. Help please!
