Bridge

 I reently installed PS and Bridge 2025. Bridge will not open, When I try I get a message "Program quit because on an unknown error." I am running Sequoia 15.1.1. Sugestions?

Upgraded to the new 2019 Versions of the CC apps today, but I am unable to sync the color settings across apps.  Also, the color setting do not stick within the individual apps. I update the universal color settings in bridge and apply, if I quit and relaunch bridge the color settings indicate they are not synced.If I open Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign the color settings are indeed not synced.  I can manually update the settings in each app, but as soon as I quit, and relaunch, each app, the color settings have reverted back to their 'defaults'.I have deleted all CC applications and data, run the CC Cleaner app, reinstalled CC from scratch and the color setting issue still remains.This behavior isn't happening with the 2018 versions of the apps.  I can set a global color setting in Bridge and it will apply to all apps.The apps maintain the color setting between quit and relaunch.Mainly just curious if anyone else has seen this behavior?

When I open Bridge i'm getting a blank screen with black boxes. I can use the dropdowns but any dialogue boxes that appear are blacked out. I have tried reinstalling the app, emptying the caches and reseting the prefs, I think, as it's difficult to do when i can't see what I'm selecting.

I'm new to javascript with Bridge.I want to pass a filepath to Bridge 2025 using applescript and have Bridge reveal the file and also change the file's star ratings. The filepath is in Numbers and I pass it in a string variable to Bridge. If I use the open command, it works but there's a long delay of about 5 seconds before control is returned back to the ApppleScript -- too painful for many files to be run through quickly this way.When I try to save the code below, I get an "Expected end of line" with javascript highlighted after "do". In Bridge's startup script folder, I put the code shown below as recommended by AI.This *prevents* the function "selectFile" from running until Applescript sends the request to run that function with the parameter "filepath" (according to AI). For ease of finding my script, I'd like to put this script in the StartupScript folder if I can keep it from running at startup, but putting it there isn't essential if it complicates things too much. If

I recently switched from an M1 iMac to a 2019 Intel based Macbook Pro (Running Sonoma 14.5).Ever since the switch, when I open Bridge it creates a large number of cache_.dat files on the external drive where my photos are located. In the Settings there is a cache location instruction which is set to  HD / My username / Libraries / Caches / Adobe Bridge / Cache / v36, but there is no Adobe Bridge folder there (even when viewing hidden files). Instead it seems to be just putting the files on the external drive. There were several thousand files that I had to remove. These files don't gp away when I close the app and don't go away when I tell it to purge cache files.i have uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge and it made no difference. Any thoughts?Thanks!Phil

Dear community, for quite some time now a real weird behaviour of the magnifying glass is annoying me both in Bridge 2024 and 2025. When viewing small images (i.e. 640x400px) it shows a strange facetted-effect.I used Bridge CS6 before - there the magnifying-glass-window was always filled completely with the selected magnification as shown below.Is that a bug in 2024/2025? Do I have some presets wrong? What can be done to have the correct rendering?It's reeeeally annoying when using it for detail research on several images. (CS6 was running on macOS El Capitan. Now I am using Bridge 2024 with macOS Monterey 12.7.6 and also tried Bridge 2025 with a clean install of macOS Sonoma 14.7.2. - Unfortunately both are showing the same effect.) Bridge CS6: Bridge 2024 and 2025:

Using Bridge 15.0.4.534, although this was also the case in the previous version, before i updated just now. WHAT I'M SEEINGI have a folder containing many nested folders, most of which contain image files.In the sidebar, i have the top level folder selected, and below that, i have expanded FILE TYPE.The list of filtering checkboxes under File Type show just the contents of the currently selected folder. GOALHave the Filter > File Type feature return results from all sub-folders Not sure if the above would constitute less of a filter and more of a search.  But i was assuming there'd be some way in Bridge to show me everything of X file type within the current folder PLUS sub-folders. 

I'm experimenting with bridge as a potential tagging alternative to what we are already using. The big problem I'm facing is we cannot tag by changing the file name due to our need to edit with the clips while others on our team tag them. We currently tag in another software using what is essentially the description and keywords. If I could add the clip description to the panel where we could edit it just as if we were editing the clip title, that would pretty much solve the only big issue switching software would cause. I have absolutely zero idea of how to write scripts for this, so if anyone has one that would be a tremendous help!

When I installed the latest version of Bridge, I mistakenly denied access to media on my computer. Now Bridge is essentially useless, as it cannot see any files at all. How can I correct this and edit the permissions? I tried uninstalling Bridge, and when prompted, chose to discard preferences. On reinstalling, I still cannot see files in the viewer window, so it would seem that the permissions choices carried over.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hye community, I wrote custom XMP metadata to add on images and medias. It works like a charm on Bridge 2022 but a bug appears on UI n 2023 version(update the day of the demo to my partners... fate...). The views are ok on 'Information panel' (Files > Informations) but doens't works on 'Metadata panel', as shown on the image linked : Image of the bug on Bridge 2023  A read the documentation another time, line by line and I've tryed many ways to rewrite XML files that describes custom XMP schema and view but nothing works. This time, I think there's a bug.All the files could be found on the github repository in Nemateria extension folderThank you community for yours help.

Bridge is creating multiple copies of photos when I download from my camera.  I'm using a Z7 and running on Windows 10 - Bridge is up to date.  This just started a few days ago.  When I use the Photo Downloader it creates two copies of each photo from my camera - I then have to delete every other one before I start actually downloading.  Anyone have any ideas??  

In the View/Details I really only want to see the photo name, Date Created, Date Modified and my description and keywords.  How do I get rid of the size of the photo, the color profile, the focal length, etc. etc.  I've gone over my Metadata settings and have almost everything 'unchecked' but I still see too much info for me. Thank you for any help.

I have a new Dell XPS laptop with Windows 11. I want to be able to view video thumbnails in Bridge 14 (2024). All .mp4 videos are appearing. However, Bridge is only showing thumbnails for some .mov files. All of these .mov files are from the same iPhone 13, all shot using the same setting, yet some thumbnails appear and some show the video editor icon instead of a thumbnail. The thumbnails that appear and the ones that don't both have the same metadata, Quicktime Video. What's more, all the thumbnails appear in Lightroom and Windows Explorer. This only happens in Bridge. I have tried clearing cache, turning on (and off) User Software Rendering and any other online solutions I could find. Is there any way to fix this?

I am editing on Adobe Bridge and brigde quit automatically when i am Panoraming 3 Photos. I loss all my edits so any one please tell me how i can recover all my edits or xmp file

I've  been a bridge fan and user since it was introduced. In V15, one of my favorites and most used function and an important part of my workflow is the search box in the upper right hand corner. In V15, I cannot find the search function. Can someone help me?Thanks to those who know more than me,Joe

I'm not sure what changed, but the Loupe keeps disappearing when the pic finishes loading. It just started one day and I can't fix it. What happens: I will click on a pic in the left column, then click on the pic in the Preview pan. The loupe shows up and magnifies properly. It then disappears after the pic finishes loading. (After "(Loading 100%)" message disappears). I click on the pic again and it will then stay just fine.But then when I choose a different pic in the list, either by clicking on it or press the Down Arrow key, the loupe will disappear again. It used to always stay. Troubleshooting:-Reset Bridge preferences (Ctrl-Alt-Shift during startup)-Updated to the latest (v13.0.4.755)-Installed v14.0.0.102-Updated latest Nvidia drivers-Rebooted multiple times. I can't find any settings that would affect it within Bridge. Is this configured elsewhere or is there some sort of Performance or Cache preference that will help with this?

PLEASE NOTE I HAVE RESOLVED THIS QUERY BUT I CAN'T DELETE THE POST. I closed everything & re-opened it, & 'select all' re-appeared when I hover over the place where it used to be.I've just opened some Raw images for editing from Bridge into Camera Raw, but it seems to have migrated to version 17.3.1 & several settings essential to my workflow are missing from the main interface. In particular the 'Select all' option which was at the top right corner of the thumbnail panel. I searched around & found that it seems to be hidden in a tiny 'filmstrip' icon at the bottom of the screen. It's hard to select anything here as the list vanishes when you take your finger off the 'select' corner or the trackpad, but when I did manage to try & click on 'select all' it just went grey & became disabled, but the images were still not selected. It is now totally disabled and I can't use it at all. PLEASE can someone tell me how to stop this idiocy, and get this feature back where

Windows 11 / 32G Ram / Core i7I have just installed bridge after a C-drive dust/reinstall and I cannot get an icon to display on my desktop to save my neck. Can anyone help?Thanks to those who know more than me,Joe
