Bridge

I'm suddenly unable to rate or label my files residing on a CfExpress card connected through an external reader.  Last week I was able to, and I am still able to label other files on an Sd card through a different reader.  I tried copying the problem files  to my hard drive, but am still unable to label them.  anyone know why?  Running Windows 11.

Hi Community!I use Bridge descriptions to keep the captions of my photos for a newspaper. It's work perfect for years. In the last month, Bridge no longer saves the metadata. I use a Mac and am up-to-date on the software. Any ideas, suggestions etc. will be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I have a simple change format from raw to jpeg and resize workflow for photos which are on a network drive, with the export on the local folder. The workflow keeps stopping after processing a small number of photos (1, 2, 3 or 4). The network drive is accessed through a wifi link. Is there a reason for this workflow not working? Best regards,Christophe

IPTC provides a collection of fields to tag images of artworks. While "Title" and "Creator" are working ok, Bridge does not save the "Creation date". I assume it's expecting a fully qualified date here, although IPTC clearly states that this is a string field.That's a bug, in my opinion.

Just can't have acces to my external HDD phots as I used to have.... 

As Bridge has sometimes lost my metadata, is there an easy way in which the likes of photo descriptions can be exported into a .csv file (or similar), or alternatively to add photo descriptions from metadata to thumbnails if exporting as contact sheets as a hard-copy backup?

I use bridge as the default folder browser in windows. I don't understand why Adobe removed the shortcut (Ctrl+F4) to close tabs and also removed the option to click on a tab to close them all (Close All). These are such futile things that make a total difference in the daily work routine, greatly optimizing time. Please Adobe, come back with these features that existed before and I don't know why they were removed.Thanks.

This has been going now for like 4 years I think... anytime you want to preview a directory of EXR files, the thumbnails are rendered too dark. The FIX seems to be to toggle the Preview Size setting in the upper right hand drop down to any settting and then back. Then purge the thumbnail cache. The new thumbnails are then rendered correctly. The problem is that rthis must be done everytime you restart Bridge. Please fix this annoyance!

I'm trying to resize a batch of images in adobe bridge via the Photoshop image processor, and whenever I did, all my images produce this error message:"I am unable to create a file in this folder. Please check your access rights to this location" followed by the path to the location of the file.Can anyone help me with this?

Hi there,I have had some issues with Bridge (14.1.1.274) lately, when I try to select and right click "Move to" some files from my card reader to a folder on the PC, it never works. You either have to click it 15 times, or you have to go to File --> Move to, and sometime even in there I have to click it twice... which as you guess is annoying. Does anybody else have this problem or am I alone? Is there any fix, any info?PC has enough power: Dual Xeon X5650, 48GB RAM, nVidia 1060 GPU

I wish that Adobe would correct the Exif data - Exposure mode to display Aperature Priority or Shutter Priority when they are used -- instead of just saying Auto. It works in Lightroom Classic so it should be an easy fix. PLEASE!

This has been bugging me for a while. Ages ago in Bridge if I went to a file's File Info/RAW Data and did seach for a word, "Date" for instance, Bridge would highlight all the instances where the "Date" appeared in the data. Pretty sure I could skip to each instance of the word too. In Bridge 2024 the search just mementarily highlights the first instance of the searched term ... then nothing. I have to visually scan for other instances. What am I missing??? Thanks!

Hi, I've seen a lot of posts about preserving the original filename but I don't really understand them.  I have my original raw files which I need to batch rename to my naming convention but I'd like to keep the original filename somewhere in the metadata.  Is this possible? Ventura 13.6.7Bridge 14.1.1.274

Hello,I have quite irritating problem with Adobe Bridge CC ver. 9.0.2.219x64. Some of PSD thumbnails previews files are not available. Instead of previews there are icons only. I have tried to change names of files and save those ones with different names etc. and still there are no previews visible but icons. At the same time other PSD files form the same session are OK and previews are available. Please see attached print screen.I very much appreciate good advice how to solve this irritating problem.  

I want to use Adobe 1998 as my working color space in all my Adobe Cloud applications (Photoshop, Camera Raw, Bridge, InDesign.) I have that set up in Photoshop, but get the warning that my color settings are not synced. I go to Bridge to synchronize them there, but Bridge only offers synchronization settings for CMYK (newspapers and other press work) or "Monitor." What do I need to do?

Hi,I just loaded about 1300 images from a recent trip into Bridge and I realized that the date stamp "Date Created" in the exif and metadata is not correct.  I'm still trying to figure out how the date in my camera changed, but the time stamp on every image is off a few months and 4 years.  The date in my camera was Januray 2014, ugh.  But the question remains, is it possible to change the date and in a batch style?  I'm not worried about the time, but I would like to have the correct date showing under the "File Properties" section.  Please help?Many thanks,Ruth

I've seen a lot of discussions about the keyboard shortcuts in Bridge 2024, but can't seem to find anything specific to this. Previously, Command+D could be set to navigate to the desktop but in this current version it is set to duplicate. Totally fine, I was going to create a new shortcut in the customization toolbar—but I can't find any command that will navigate to the desktop that I could even assign to any keyboard combo. It's totally possible that I'm just not seeing that desktop option, but I've dug through each and every command in the list. Is that command completely gone from shortcut options? It's messing with my workflow.

This is very frustrating. I can't even rename a file. I only have Bridge open, I both tried to click the file name and right click>rename file.Adobe Bridge warning pops up:The process cannot access the files because it is being used by another process.I've experienced this with Windows with the preview pane having "access" to the file but even if I close the preview pane, it still doesn't work.Help.

The later versions of Bridge keeps regenerating thumbnails every time the Bridge app window gets into focus. It has been like this for a while (used to be OK, not quite sure when this error was introduced). I have been hoping this would be fixed, but no luck so far. Here is a repeatable sequence that will show this problem: 1) Select a smart collection in Bridge (workspace Filmstrip used)In my case the collection targets a folder with 13 sub-folders (looking for files with one or more stars) holding the following file types:    .acr: 6 files   .CR2: 6274 files   .dng: 400 files   .psd: 2415 files   .xmp: 6274 files    TOTAL: 15369 files 2) Wait until things stabilize (no more activity generated by Bridge) 3) Place any (other) program window on top of the Bridge window 4) Observe that Bridge is still quiet 5) Remove (like minimize) the window now on top so that the Bridge window is fully

Hi, I have been batch renaming files, but while doing so, I had to overwrite on my files multiple times and now i am unable to find the original filename which the camera had assigned at the time that the image was taken. While renaming multiple times, I had not realised that the original camera filename will be overwritten. An example of a camera filename is DSC1001. I tried looking into the File info > Raw Data and couldnt find it. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I have this PNG file exported from AI. It's a design with colours. I exported with ' Export > Export As'.  Why is the color mode in Bitmap and there is no dimension data? A month ago with the same export method, I would have the metadata showing the colour mode sRGB with Dimensions (in inches) and Dimensions (in cm).  Anything to do with the recent update? I am already on the updated version.  Please help.

I have restarted - my programs are up to date - but I cannot label or star my images - any suggestions?

I don't recall an update happening, but all of a sudden I can't view thumbs nor previews in Bridge 2024 v 12-0-4-286, which is obviously crushing my productivity. But it seems only for footage shot on a DJI Mini 3, as I CAN view thumbs/previews for all other MP4 footage (see attached screenshot). Suggestions?  

I have reported this before, but here is the visual proof: Bridge 14 at times shows the wrong path in the address bar. It is worth noting that the first displayed path (a search result path) wasn't used before today. It must be some older, cached entry from some previous session.Please don't ask me to send in files or to look at my system. You won't find anything unusual – this is solely a Bridge-problem.Visible in the clip:Active content tab shows a wrong pathUser changes tab to force a refreshUser changes back to previous tabNew path shown
