Bridge

Just like the title of this post says – Why do SOME folders in the left-side Folders list have dropdown arrows, but others do not, but crucially, when there are NO sub-folders contained within it?See the attached screengrab.I have a folder with three other folders contained within it.Folders 2 and 3 have dropdown arrows, but folder 1 does not.This would seem to me to indicate that folders 2 and 3 have sub-folders within them, but you'll notice that the dropdown arrow on folder 2 has been clicked on, and is pointing down, but is not showing any folders contained within it.And believe me, there are no folders within it.As far as I can tell, each of these three sub-folders is, for all intents and purposes, exactly the same.They each have a selection of images in them, and that's it. No sub-folders. No hidden files (I have turned on "View > Show Hidden Files" to check).The images in them are all the same type, just JPGs. They are all named in the same way.Here's a few steps that confuse

Another problem in this bug-ridden CC Bridge.  Sometimes, I can add no data to the raw  Nikon .mov files, though usually I can.  In the current instance, I was adding more data such as location, description, keywords and other to those in a Bridge search, with about 153 .move files.  I had been lucky and only 1 had  given the message that data could not be added.  So I was finalizing, adding another keyword to some, and I got the message that some could not accept data and now there were 11, such files, and they had lost all the previously added keywords, description, headline, title, everything.  As it took an inordinately long time for selected files to highlight that they were selected, and then accept the input data, in the first place, this is extremely annoyting.I previous cases .mov files that would initially accept no data, later for unknown reasons became receptive to such. Also, as in CS6 Bridge  in the camera data sometimes a date of a

Hi, as in the title...how to set a new default saving location when importing photos from my camera?a big thank you in advance

There are many problems with Bridge Photo Downloader1) When using the Photo Downloader why is there no default settings?I want to upload images from my iPhone to my desktop but I do not want them to go into my "C:\My Pictures" folder. I want them to go to an external driver D but I have to set Bridge every time I upload images. Why can't it remember the last settings used, or have a default where I can determine where my images go. It seems to default to a set standard every time but there seems no way of changing this. I add copyright info, Keywords etc and renumber the files on every upload but I have too set this every time. This really slows things down.2) When ~I connect my iPhone to Bridge/Photo Downloader it changes the sort order of the image.It is sorting images not in numeric order, or date taken which would be the logical way to do things, but there doesn't seem to be any logic in the process now.Photo Downloader appears to be sorting images in the date they were last access

OK, in the big scheme of things this isn't a biggie, but if I'm correct this is going to add way too much time to my processing. This is the first I've used Bridge since the last upgrade and since I usually designate which images are done to which degree with the star ranking system I went ahead and did this on over 600 images. When I went to remove them I find that there is on "x" or delete for the stars below the image anymore. I have to pull them up into Camera Raw and even then I can't select all and remove the stars, it has to be done one image at a time. Is this correct? I really do not want to send these images to my bride with these stars on the off chance that she has adobe products and can see them. Question: is there no way to remove these stars like there was before this upgrade? If not this is another case of don't fix it if it ain't broke!Thanks,Linda

I have just noticed that all my folders in Bridge have the same date. This only happened in the last couple of days. Any ideas?

would some one please explain to me once and for all, whether to check these boxes or not and why?Much appreciated!steve z

Hi,question about software vs. GPU accerlated rendering in Bridge CC vs. CS6 (Win10/64).Graphics Card: NVidia Quadro K2200 with 4096 MB GDDR5Bridge CC:→ Does this greyed out option mean Bridge CC can't use GPU acceleration?... vs. Bridge CS6 (same PC, Win10/64):→ however CS6 uses GPU rendering?Thanks!Carlos

I just batched renamed all my photos in a gallery. I wish to undo this. After some research I realized that I could've gone back to the original file name, if I had checked the  "preserve original file name" box. I did not. Why isn't batch rename easily undone? I mean really. A lot of people have had this problem over the years if you look at the forums. I don't understand why Adobe doesn't just make this changeable by a simple undo command.

I've had an issue with the last 3 or 4 updates of Bridge where the File info popups stick, and show over other programs. They gradually multiply, with more and more info boxes sticking, until I have to quit Bridge to use it at all. So I have to always keep Bridge hidden, and quit it a few times a day -- not a very efficient workflow.

I am running Bridge on multiple iMacs of varying ages. All of them had no issues until very recently with sorting images by Date Created. Now none of the computers will do the sorting.Additionally, I cannot Add or Replace Metadata in Bridge or Lightroom CC on any of the machines, either. Adobe - please fix this problem.

I will to erase all keywords of all my photo's, to make a full new organisation of the pictures.When i click om the option and the V, that is not the solution.To click one main keywords is repeat after a few seconds or with a other selection.Message was edited by: Pierre Courtejoie (email removed for privacy)

I keep getting this message, only on my laptop.Bridge has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has disabled GPU rendering which used the graphics hardware.. Please restart Bridge for optimal experience.Check the manufacture website for the latest software.When I go to device manager, and try to update, I get a message, that says the latest drivers, have been installed on my unit.

I have Bridge CC2019Running Windows 10 with partitioned hard drives, 112GB of SSD and 1.8 Tb of rotary.The SSD is C drive for programs, the 1.8Tb is D for data. The SSD is showing only 28Gb free, and in no way am I using 84 Gb for programs. I had this problem before and the problem was that Bridge was backing up on C a copy of every image I opened.I managed to navigate to the back up files, but I can't find them again.Any ideas?

I updated my iMac yesterday to Mojave and then updated Bridge. When I right click on file info on an image in Bridge,now I get a blank popup window and the entire computer freezes up and I have Force quit.

My script, which had been working in previous CS and CC versions, is not working in CC 2017.In the snippet below, var webLib2 = new ExternalObject("lib:" + pathToLib2 ); results in an I/O error.Do I need to change my code or is webaccesslib no longer available in CC 2017?if ( !ExternalObject.webaccesslib ){    if( Folder.fs == "Windows" ){        var pathToLib2 = Folder.startup.fsName + "\\webaccesslib.dll";        }    else{        var pathToLib2 = Folder.startup.fsName + "/webaccesslib.bundle";        }    var libfile2 = new File( pathToLib2 );    var webLib2 = new ExternalObject("lib:" + pathToLib2 );   }

I followed the instructions for uninstalling all Photoshop software including associate files, then re-started the computer, and went through the complete process twice.  When I open Bridge, it will load, I can select photos and process in Camera Raw, but eventually Bridge just locks up and I have to close it.  The only program running is Bridge!  I have used Photoshop for years now suddenly it is pretty much a waste of time.iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017)Mojave 10.14.48 GB 2400 MHz DDR4Radeon Pro 575 4 GB

It all started about 24 h. ago with an erroneous, random keystroke. Bridge interface is now unusable. I tried deleting the cache, but it did not helpAll of my image files now appear to reside in one folder, with a number of .DS_store files showing up adjacent to that folderDeselecting 'View items from subfolders' restores some sense of normalcy, but if I reselect 'View items from subfolders', I'm back to the beginning  (all files residing in one folder)Maybe I should carry our a ''clean' restart of Bridge. Is there a keystroke combination to launch an Apple app with all preferences set to their default settings?Web search is not helpful. If one of you can show me how to do that, I would be grateful.Failing that, I would invite an Adobe screen share. Have been ion hold since 2050 Eastern., attempting to contact a live help agent.jwc

I have windows 7 64 bit. I just started using bridge 2019 yesterday, everything was ok, and now the labels do not show in the thumbnails in the contents window. the label description which I changed also reverted to the original "review" for the blue color. The label menu in the toolbar at top is also dimmed out. what is wrong?I have 24,000 files to enter.

Since updating to a new iMac Pro and Mojave in late 2018 — have experience sound and video playback issues from day 1. Video playback is rapid and sputtering. Viewing on youtube too... videos with just play and rip through every video on the list. iTunes music playback is super fast... aka chipmunk style. Text and other alerts are abbreviated and sound more like a bad pot on a speaker volume knob.Discovered that quitting Adobe Bridge and then restarting resolves the issue.

I've noticed that Adobe Bridge CC (9.0.1.216 x64) sometimes creates stripes in images. "Purge cache for the selection" fixes the problem. The attached image shows what it looks like before rebuilding the cache.At this moment, I can't say if the stripes only happen with TIFs.

Hi, glitch has JUST showed up in Bridge. Anything I double click on opens After Effects - automatically jumps to try opening file with After Effects instead of using App defaulted to in Bridges Preferences. FYI.Yours dusty

hi can anyone help me please. I have a Canon EOS camera that has no usb cable with it. So I bought a scadisc card reader to transfer photos in to Bridge. When I transfer the photos they are recognised by bridge and they transfer ok, but there is no option as before when using a usb cable with my Olympus camera to tag photos, apply further info or batch name them. There’s just nothing, they just download and then that’s it. There’s no opportunity to rename files or anything else that I used to be able to do with my old camera and a usb cable.Am I missing something here, or is this the way it is when using a card reader to transfer photos from an eos camera to my Bridge app on a iMac?bobthetrrier

When I try to open a photo from Bridge in Photoshop it Defaults to Photoshop 2018. But I want the Photos to open in Photohshop 2019. HOw do I change the default setting?

Since upgrading to Bridge CC 2019, double-clicking an image is opening Adobe After Effects instead of Photoshop CC 2019.There are no obvious changes to make in Bridge Preferences to change.When I left-click on an image in Bridge and choose to open it in Photoshop, if photoshop is already running, the image is opened in a new instance of Photoshop. And yes, there is only one copy of Photoshop CC 2019 on my hard drive.Adobe Tech support, please advise,David
