Bridge

I run Bridge 2024 and 2025 on my PC. I still run 2024 version as when I installed the latest when I start it it attempots to index my complete system..  Why is it indexing everything and not just the folder I am in.  I cannot find anywhere to turn this off? I don't want it thrashing my drive or even accessing folders it doesn't need to.. My 2024 version does not do this. Id appreciate any help. Thanks 

Hello, I am wondering if there is any way to export the output templates I have created and saved so I can easily share them with coworkers to maintain a unified look while avoiding changing each setting on their accounts. Essentially, I'd like to know if Bridge has a feature similar to Illustrator's "New From Template" in which a coworker can open the template I have created and get straight to work. 

Hi,I have problems running Photoshop scripts in Adobe Bridge 15.0.3 (Batch & Image Processor). I always get an error message that "Photoshop startup scripts are not enabled" then I enable them and it is still not working (the startup scripts button get always disabled without me clicking on it). I have this problem since new updates (which were made automatically).I would be grateful for help!

Not sure if this is a bug or a UX decision, but I used to be able to open a folder with the Enter key on the keyboard, and not it just does nothing. If I press Command + Down arrow it opens, but why not with the Enter key like every other previous version?

I'd like to do a first-pass sort to delete the obvious fails--and some failed images are not obvious until you get to a full-screen view.   Can I mark images in any way with a quick slideshow so I can sort & delete the fails at that moment, or after the slideshow?  This is not about removing them from the slideshow, but deleting the files entirely from the folder being used for the slideshow. Review mode as-is does not work for me because of the animation/movement that triggers motion sickness.  Is there a way to kill the silly animation effects and just show the items one by one full-screen and delete from there?  Or is there a better tool/view/option for doing this in Bridge? I've been previewing in Camera Raw, where clicking delete will trash images after I finish running through the previewed group, as long as I open one of the keepers in Photoshop.  But that doesn't give a true full-screen view.   MacOS 15.3.2 Se

I just updated my Mac to Sequoia 15.3 and when I launch Bridge and go to use Photo Downloader its crashing. I have the most recent verison of Bridge. Why can't Adobe keep up

Is it possible to have Bridge visible on one monitor and the preview window full size on another window?I've seen some workarounds but none fit what I need. Win PC.

Old version of Bridge is corrupted (I think). Is it best to de-authorize CS5.5 and reinstall entire suite? 

How can I change the ’Document title’ (Photoshop) of several photos as easily as possible?

Adobe Bridge 15.0.3 is still slow. The last fast and reliable version was 14.0.0. This issue has been present since 14.0.1 and nothing seems to have improved. The preview function continues to load slowly, taking several extra seconds even after thumbnails and previews are fully cached. It seriously affects the workflow, especially when handling large numbers of files. Please prioritize fixing this problem – it’s been around for several versions now. I’ve already shared a video comparison between version 14.0.0 (fast) and 15.0.1 (slow), and unfortunately, version 15.0.3 behaves exactly the same. System Info:MacBook Pro with Apple M1 Max, 32 GB RAM, 2 TB SSDRunning the latest version of macOS (fully up to date as of March 2025) Version 14.0.0 = OKVersion 15.0.3 = Still slow

Am I the only one that is endlessly annoyed by Bridge saying "Loading high quality preview" ON TOP OF every selected image? And even not just once? Raw, tiff you name it. If you want to say that, a proper UX designer would put that in some status bar because it's totally irrelevant. Please note that it's not even loading the full res preview at that point. You have to zoom in for that. Also, it's brurred first and then becomes sharp (in about half a second). It makes it impossible to back-forth compare images it they don't load properly.  Bridge 8.1 (!!) doesn't suffer Either of those problems so I STILL use that. Version 8.1 loads images instantly at the same resolution as 2023 and without any blur or message on top of the photo. Hail the subscription model.

Is there a way to save a collection set?Like for example, I am working on client X and set a bunch of collections.But tomorrow I'll work with client Y and I will have to set new collections for them. Is there a way to have separated collections on bridge? And don't have all collections mixed up?Or another feature that lets me work with different clients collections separately?

In the Adobe bridge 2025 version, I have a problem with moving files in a folder in a specific order to give them a name, for example from 01 to 10. When I select several files and want to move them lower or higher in a folder, it happens so quickly that it prevents me from precisely placing the files where I want to use Batch Rename. In version 2024 this happens much slower.Is it possible to change the file dragging speed somewhere?

I've been experiencing issues with the Batch command. After selecting a group of files and navigating to Tools > Photoshop > Batch, the batch window sometimes fails to open. Reinstalling Photoshop and Bridge without retaining my previous settings seemed to resolve the issue initially, but the problem still occurs occasionally. I've discovered that the issue is related to the filenames of the selected files. When the Batch command doesn't work, renaming the files to something simple like 0001.jpg, 0002.jpg, 0003.jpg, etc., makes it function properly. I've tried to determine if the problem is due to the filename length, the pathname length or specific characters in the filename, but haven't had any success. I'm content with my workaround. However, I'm curious if anyone else has encountered this problem or has any suggestions on what might be causing it. Thanks in advance.

I need to know how to turn off the stupid "loupe" view in Bridge. I need to know how to force it to expand a picture to 100% when I click on the picture, like you can in Lightroom classic. I do NOT want to have take my hand off the mouse and move it to the space bar then back to the mouse to move it around then back to the spacebar to shrink it back down. To me that's just a lot of extra, usless, steps to take. So please tell me how to turn off the ignorant "loupe" view that pops up when you click an image in Bridge with no way to expand the stupid little "magnify window" or "loupe" if that's what you call it.  There must be a way becasue only idiots would make a bunch of interacting programs and have each of them use a different command for the same function.... And I know the people at Adobe are not idiots...

On several occasions, CC Bridge has lost all files in a collection. I understand it can happen when using a secondary drive. But with a primary, working drive? Any ideas why this occurs?Windows 11Bridge 15.0.3.525Source drive: WD 8TB external

When I return an image to bridge after editing in Camera Raw , the exposure is automatically increase , which makes the images unusable.!🥶

I am using an MSI WS75 loaded with Windows 11 Pro and the latest version of Bridge - today it is V 15.0.3.525. it has been a few months since I needed to import any images from a camera. Today I needed to. Besides being a bit annoyed that there is no longer an icon in the toolbar to download images from a memory card, I found the download under FILE. I downloaded a dozen or so, and then later down loaded a few more. It was then that I realized that Bridge was opening another (secondary) window. I found where the "off /on" switch is at in the camera download dialog, but what I can't figure out is that I cannot see the 2nd set of images that I downloaded in the normal Bridge window. I have to open a 2nd window to see them. Doesn't matter how many times I tried (5 times) I still cannot see the 2nd set of images in the "main " window. if I open a secondary window, I am looking at all my pictures, including 5 sets of the last pictures I tried to down load. How do I turn this thing off so th

Der gute alte Doppelklick scheint im Adobe-Workflow irgendwie unter die Räder geraten zu sein. Ob in der Dokumenten-Vorschau (zuletzt benutzt) in den Apps selbst oder unter Bridge: ein Doppelklick auf (Adobe-)Dokumente öffnet Dokumente in den zugeordneten Apps einfach nicht mehr.Hier hilft dann zwar immer noch das umständlichere Kontextmenü oder das Ziehen auf  die betreffenden Icons im Dock … aber: warum Bewährtes nicht beibehalten?Oder kennt jemand eine Lösung?(Bridge 15.0.3.525 Mac Studio, Sequoia 15.3.2

I am unable to get Bridge to work correctly when I am not connected to the internet. It does launch correctly but then continually hangs and is very slow. I cannot rate images and then it hangs. Is there a setting I must change somewhere?

Bridge launches normally however is very very slow and does not work properly when not connected to the internet. It nowhere states that Bridge must be connected to the internet to work properly. I am not talking about launching or verifying subscription. Is there some setting that I must change?

As soon as I select a single image file in Bridge up comes an error panel saying "Unable to draw image. GDI Status, value overflow." Pressing OK on the panel does NOT get rid of it and I can go ahead and work despite it. Found nothing on the web about this. Reinstalled Bridge, no fix. Current Bridge, Windows 10 64 version.

I can not give labels and stars in preview in the newest version of Bridge.Can anybody help me with this problem?
