The re-write of Bridge, in my opinion, is the worst software product release of all time. And I have been a personal computer user since Vic-20. I disliked it then, I dislike it more now. It still lacks much of the features of the old one. It certainly in every area performs WORSE than the original version. On Mac and PC both.Multi-monitor support is terrribleMulti-window support is a joke; it didn't even have it to begin with. (Really Adobe? that's a feature?)Keyboard shortcuts from original are either missing or don't work. I can look them up in the new fancy keyboard shortcut UI (totally a waste IMO - looks nice, terrible to use) and they are there, but they do not work. You look up shortcuts and they don't work. Nice~!Slideshow is so super broken - I don't even try to use it anymore. Being able to switch between thumbnails and your workspace layout doesn't exist anymoreIt's so super slow. Beyond ridiculous slooooow.It is so bad (and don't get me wrong, Photoshop has a lot of a
Zooming in ACR is perfect, so why is it so cumbersome in Bridge, it is same-author program package, and it is in Bridge that I need the perfect zoom function, as thát is where the selection process happen....?In ACR, You can in the settings set the default zooming to for instance 400%, which is perfect in terms of checking whether the image is actually 100% sharp, NOT THE LEAST because it zoom in exactly where You click, however in Bridge, it zoom to 100 percent, somewhere in the vicinity of where You clicked, and it is for one thing VERY cumbersome to drag the image - bit for bit - to the eye that You for instance want to check, if it didn't zoom in exactly where You clicked (which it doesn't do 8 out of 10 times), and likewise it is also quite difficult to get it to the 400%, or whatever level You want to get to, as it more or less zoom in and out frantically (exactly this may be a matter of mouse sensitivity though, however, unlike ACR, it is not possble to preset a zoomlevel in the
Lmao... apparently the dev team have heard somany complaints about slow scrolling for so long that they've coded in huge jumps on scroll events as somesort of "fix" for what must have been atrocious performance. If y'all need to make such huge jumps on each scroll event - I mean, scroll events fire more than any other UI event, a veritable flood of them...And how did you code such a thing without a throttle or debounce? It might be an genuine solution/feature if it actually stopped after scrolling an entire page on a single one of the 800 or so scroll events that get sent with the tiniest swipe of my trackpad, I can't even use the scroll bar, since apparently that has the same kludgy event handling tied to it. Keyboard nav kinda works, but even that feels super unnatural.And ok, maybe debouncing or throttling the Spaceballs-esque Ludicrous Speed scrolling is hard or something - but why not a toggle to turn it off, or a multiplier setting that could be adj
The "maximize current panel" shortcut (` key) doesn't work on QWERTZ (German) keyboards and likely on most non-English keyboards as well.Those who don't have an English keyboard with version 13 lose Tab to Hide and get locked out of the Subwindow magnification feature too (I saw no other way to run this command). The issue, obviously, could get solved with editable keyboard shortcuts: A feature Bridge users have been asking for, since day one.I already posted this as a comment in another thread, but I thought I should give it a thread on its own. Maybe someone from the Bridge Team reads this feedback right after the major release.
I would like to open RAW-files directly into Photoshop without going through Camera Raw (ACR). Actual Result: this is only possible with shift double clicking using the mouse Expected Result: a keyboard shortcut (e.g. Shift-Enter) or the option to add such a keyboard shortcut
Hi, I can't seem to get Camera Raw to work with my new MacBook Pro. The internet has told me to try different things, but I might be too big of an idiot to understand what to do. I have attached screenshots of why I can't change settings or delete a file I don't seem to have. Any help would be much appreciated.
SorryIt started working - No need for assistance
Using I mac v. 15.5 and latest v of Bridge, I cannot rotate pictures-symols are grayed-out. I have removed Br and reinstalled it and restarted I mac and this still has the problem. Fix???
The folders are just showing as the folder icon which makes it difficult to gauge at a glance which folders are empty.Bridge ↑vsFile explorer ↓(yes they're not the same location).
Not getting DDS previews. Tried copying Intel Textureworks and Nvdia DDS plugins from photoshop to Bridge but still no previews.Is this the state of things? Or am i missing something. Thx.
[ Adobe Bridge V.15.0.3 ] Bonjour, la plupart de mes photos en RAW ne sont pas possible de mettre un libellé tel que une note, étiquette. Aucun soucis sur mes photos en JPEG. Il y a également un cadenas sur les vignettes qui me montrent bien que ce n'est pas possible. Une idée pour y résoudre?
Mittendrin geht die CPU Last auf 100% und es kommt alles ins stocken.Beim der letzten Version lief alles einwandfrei. Wie kann das sein das regelmäßig nach Updates solche Probleme auftauchen. So wird das arbeiten mit Bridge zu einer Qual.
I used a period "." in the naming of my file sequence on Bridge (.psd). Now those files appear as blank, unreadable documents and I can't recover them. When I try to rename them using Batch Rename, Bridge is not able to change the name. I think it thinks that the "." indicates the format of the file. HELP!!!!!!
Since two weeeks, Bridge crashes upon starting. I can't even access the preferences since the program closes immediately. I de-installed it and reinstalled it, but to no avail. The version is 15.0.3 and I am using OS Sequoia 15.3.2

I was prompted to update my Adobe Bridge, and upon launching the updated software, I was met with constant crashing. I can't even scroll more than two lines into a folder before the program closes. For reference, here are my system specs: Windows 10 AMD Ryzen 5 3600 16GB of RAM (2x8GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Zotac RTX 3060 12GB OC Adata Swordfish 250GB M.2-2280 NVME SSD (This is the drive with the files I'm attempting to access) If someone knows what to do about this, it would be greatly appreciated if you could help me out, as this program is literally unusable at this point. {Title edited by Moderator}

I can't believe Adobe is dropping support for Bridge 12 in Sequoia. It's still the most stable version of Bridge in my opinion. We had all sorts of issues with Bridge 14+ on an M2 Mac mini. There were weird thumbnail caching issues with external usb hard drives. They would constantly reload and take forever to reload every time you launched the app. Labeling and tagging images would sometimes revert for no reason. Any chance you could just revert the changes and go back to Bridge 12 when everything worked? If not, I'm afraid we're stuck on Sonoma for the forseeable future. These newer Bridge updates have just gotten worse and worse.
Bridge 15.0.4 crashes everytime when trying to labelling, rating, writing metadata in Macos Ventura.It happens everytime since I updated to this version.And won't open .cr3 files in bridge itself.
I have several folders of family photos nested like this: 2025 Jan 01 20 Feb 01 132024 Jan 01 20 Feb 01 13 Inside each folder I have certain images tagged with the red label. Is there an action or a batch process that can copy all of the red images from the nested folders into one folder on my desktop?
I just installed Bridge 2025 on my new Mac Studio. I got an error message "GPU Rendering is Disabled" and something about Photo Downloader not working. Has something to do with Adobe not bothering to update Bridge for Apple Silicon processors (after three years?). How will GPU Rendering being disabled affect my work experience with Bridge? What's not goin to work? Thanks.
