Bridge

HI, my problem is that i I can`t eject SD / CF Cards in Bridge or even with the finder. The Problem starts with Bridge 9. I use since that photo mecanic for my news jobs, but i hate it. When i quit Bridge (10.1.1166) , i can eject the CD / CF card, but this is BS. Is there a solution ?   Best regards Frank

I am a long-time user of Bridge and never experienced this problem before.  It began in the past few days. Bridge 15.0.4.534 and Windows 11 I am finding that, sometimes, but not always, a new file created in Photoshop does not show in Bridge. However if I close and restart Bridge the file shows. Also Tools>Cache>Purge Cache for Folder results in the file appearing. While the problem is intermittent, it happens frequently enough to be a nuisance. Any suggestions?

Bridge 2025 Mac Sequoia on Mac Studo. Opens then crashes. Message just says "Error." If I open with Cmd-Option-Shift and reset preferences and caches, then it works. But I have to do it every time I open Bridge.  Tried it on both Sonoma and Sequoia. Have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. When I reinstall and it asks if I want to use old Preferences, I click No.

Trying to find the way to make "Sort by Date Created" the default when opening a folder of images from the desktop. Googled and found an AI Overview with instructions that say: 1. Go to Settings (Mac); 2. Select the Application Preferences: Choose "Application" from the list of preferences on the left panel. > and there is no "Application" from the list of preferences on the left panel!Typical.Can someone please tell me how to set preferences on the sort list? Below are screenshots.

I'm trying to transfer photos from my SD card to Bridge and I am unable to open the both Bridge 2023 and Bridge 2024. There are no updates available, and I can't even open the app. When I try to open them, the dark gray background pops up and starts to load but immediately gives an error saying Bridge cannot be opened, and then I have to force quit. When I send an error report, it comes back with saying there are no workarounds right now. I'm photographing an event this weekend and need to be able to use Bridge by Monday

Hi there, Bridge (Mac version) which I normally use, suddelly stuck on a folder and its subfolders. Whenever you launch it, it returns on the same set of pictures. You can work on Settings but when you want to do anything else it gets stuck. I tried several times to delete the App and reinstall but it remains all the same. I cleared all caches and I'm really lost.The MAc is a mini M2 8Mb Ram. The folders extracted count some 1000+ elements. I hope someone can help me out. Thanks in advance.

Bridge sometimes immediately goes to bottom of keyword panel after I click on a keyword in my list in that panel to add it to meta. It's a pain to have to keep scrolling up to find where i left off in my list.  Is there a fix?

When viewing the folder contents in the Essentials Workspace, the content flows continuosly from left to right, requiring the use of the horizontal slide bar to see everything. Switching to the Folders Workspace will allow the content to wrap and fill the grid/view of the Content Pane.

3 problems with Bridge today: 1   A few, not many but few thumbnails not showing previews:   I opened in PS, still same .  2  Some have white label.  Bridge often mangles color labels over time and replaced with a generic white, fine, but wont go away even when I select label, no label. how get rid of the white label? 3.  no screenshot need but , most annoying:  Tifs for some reason wont take label, no problem jpegs, dngs, but tifs just wont take a label, worse, when click keypad to add label then jumps to top of the thumbnails. thanks! 

Bridge freezes within five minutes from start. Windows 11. Everything updated. Computer log here.

I created a smart collection in Bridge to select all files on an SSD (where pictures are stored in subfolders) with the following conditions: file name starts with _ and ends with jpg and color profile contains Adobe. Almost 1.500 files are selected. Then I select all files in the collection and batch export converting them in jpg 100% quality keeping the same filename (basically overwriting them). It basically works but after a while (typically after 200-300 files are exported) the export process gets stuck. If I cancel the process and start again, it won't start. If I close Bridge, it doesn't close. I need to force stop Bridge closure and start again, but again after 200 exporst the process gets stuck etc etc etc

So, I've recently switched cameras, I've changed from Nikon D800 to Canon EOS R and now when I am about to transfer pictures from my card to my PC via Bridge, when I click ''Get photos from camera'' standard Photo Downloader window apeears, and then when I click Advanced Dialog to see whitch photo I want to download I dont see my pictures as you can see in the attachment. But when I open the same photos from Bridge directly on my SD card, all photos are fine, I see them perfectly. Does anyone knows what is the problem and how to fix it, because I ofter you this metod to transfer my photos. Thanks in advance. 🙂

Hi all,When I'm whittling images, Bridge has started doing this annoying thing of when I delete an image and then press the forward arrow to look at the next image it then jumps forward two images instead of just going to the next image. I have restarted the programme and the mac too and this has not solved it. I've reset bridge as well. Is this a bug since the last update?Using a 2020 iMac running Ventura 13.4.1I have added a video to show what I am referring too

Bridge und Bridge Beta sind installiert auf jeweils 2 Rechnern. Es lassen sich nicht mehr die"Werkzeuge" - "Bildprozessor" aufrufen weil angeblich Startskripte nicht aktiviert sind. Sie sind aber alle aktiviert und der Fehler passiert auf beiden Rechnern. Was ist zu tun?

As a professional photographer and long-time Adobe Bridge / Lightroom / Photoshop user, I have ALWAYS been confused by why there is frequently a one+ second difference between the same image file's "Date Created" and "Date File Created."-- I am *NOT* talking about "Date File Modified" --I have searched for the answer to my question online and have not found a satisfactory explanation.I want to Batch Rename my image files according to the exact HHMMSS I pressed the shutter button and thus the file was created, which should take care of the dreaded _ (1), _ (2), _ (3), etc file extensions 95% of the time.Is there an option to Batch Rename according to the mysteriously more accurate "Date FILE Created" instead of the mysteriously inaccurate "Date Created?"Thanks,Scott

Today I updated to MacOS Monterey knowing there would be problems, and here is the first problem: Bridge crashes instead of opening. I looked at some of the previous posts and gave Bridge permission in the System Preferences, but it still crashes when opening. Photoshop 2022 opens normally, however.What to do?   

This is the message I get from the Output Workspace. Sequoia 15.4.1. Bridge 2025, up-to-date. My Home folder is on an external drive, I hope this is not the issue.  

Since I installed the new version (Bridge v15), some of psd files are not displayed anymore. I unistalled the new version and went back in the old one (v14), but the bug persists. 

I just updated to Bridge 2024 and now suddenly I can't change star ratings and color labels without having to use the command key! Very incovenient to need two hands to do this! I looked at the preferences, figuring I'd just check the box that says you don't need the command key, but its gone!!! There's no option for labeling and starring without command anymore! This needs to be fixed. How is it an improvement to make something harder to do???

Since the recent updates I haven't been able to run any batch actions on files from Bridge into Photoshop. Initially it ran the action but didn't open the files so I got errors that the steps couldn't be run because there was no files open. I uninstalled both and reinstalled, Bridge being first then Photoshop after, and now the action dialogue doesn't even open. After un and reinstalling I don't know what else I can really do. thanks in advance.

I use ACR w/ Photoshop 2026. My workflow is to open RAW files from bridge into ACR. Its hard to get a general feel for some images without opening them in ACR and making a few edits. But for images that are open in ACR, is there any way I can save the rating, even if I don't open the image in Photoshop? I may want to come back to the pics later based on rating without opening them in Photoshop.

Hi everyone,I am tearing my hair out because I can't seem to overwrite a metadata file.  I have created a new one and then try to replace and overwrite the previous details, but it still keeps the old camera EXIF data and not the new one which I require.Does this have anything to do with Document Ancestors? Do I have to run some kind of script to get rid of old data? I have been on this for days now and it is getting me frustrated. Hope someone can help. Thank you.Best regards Paul

Each time I open Photoshop the color sync setting I have chosen in Bridge turns off, and all apps revert to emulating an older version of the respective app with CMS deactivated. I have tried to restart Bridge and reset preferences, settings, cache etc. to no avail. Is there a fix for this?
