Bridge

Bring tabs like a webbrowser or a Finder window or any other Adobe app has.In Bridge these tabs just have to contain folder paths, so we could easily drag files from one to another tab to copy or move them from one folder location to another. Really a missing thing for an advanced file browser I guess. Who is with me? Please vote up if so.

Hi wizards,If I have multiple versions of Bridge installed (2024, 2025), it always try to open the newest version to run.Is there a way to target a specific version?Thanks in advance

Adobe Bridge can be useful, but I only want it to launch when I want it to launch. For some reason, it keeps auto launching after I do anything in Photoshop. Please make this stop!

Hello community i just installed Bridge 2024 from the Creative Cloud and it's not showing any thumbnails. my computer is a new Mac M2 so it's not a memory problem. Does someone know how to solve it?

 Hallo Adobe-Community, seit mehreren Jahren nutze ich die Adobe-Software „InDesign“ in Verbindung mit der Adobe „Bridge“. Nun musste ich in den letzten Tagen einen neuen Computer kaufen, da der alte komplett seinen Geist aufgegeben hat.Bei der Installation (ich nutze einen IMac mit M4 Prozessor, 16 GB Arbeitsspeicher und dem Betriebssystem Sequoia Version 15.2) von Bridge erscheint immer ein Hinweis „Bridge kann nicht unter diesem Betriebssystem installiert werden.Du musst ein Upgrade ausführen“. Nach meinen Informationen ist dies die neueste Betriebssystem-Software und auch die anderen Systemanforderungen scheinen mir erfüllt.Was kann ich tun, um wieder auf Bridge zugreifen zu können?Ich benötige eigentliche nur die Bridge Danke vorab für alle hilfreichen Tipps

It doesn't let me create a New Folder, how do I activate the option to create the Folder and give it a Name.

I have uninstalled and re-installed Bridge.I have rebooted Bridge with Ctr-Alt-Shift, reset preferences, purged all caches.Under tools, Batch rename is greyed out at the very top of the menu. Ctrl-Alt-R does nothing. Right Click on files that need to be re-named allows me to re-name one file, manually. Where did Batch Rename go?

J'ai créé un dossier sous Bridge, puis un sous-dossier intitulé "REF" toujours dans ce même dossier et toujours par l'intermédiaire de Bridge. Pourtant la flêche qui est censée indiquer un sous-dossier dans la partie navigation n'est pas présente. Hors je n'affiche habituellement pas les dossiers dans la partie contenu pour simplifier mon affichage.J'ai raffraichi, quitté et relancé, rien n'y fait, ce sous-dossier n'apparait juste pas dans la navigation. Je suis sur macOS 14.7.1 et Bridge 15.0.2 

Adobe Bridge 2025 always shows this message.Quick Action not applied.The operation could not be completed due to an unknown error.TKX

I was selecting a file in Bridge when my elbow slipped and I may have swiped the folder left. The folder has now disappeared from the entire system. It contained 232 photos. I had created the folder a short while before in the process of doing some "house keeping" in Bridge so it had not been backed up yet. It had been put into Lightroom CC but the folder now shows a ? mark and is unable to find the location of the folder. Any ideas on where it might be hiding?

HELP ME!!! I had all the irreplaceable pictures of my daughter's prom this last weekend and in the process of moving and renaming the folder, Bridge LOST all but one of the files.  I am a photographer so I use Bridge constantly and have never had this happen before. HELP! ANYONE!  I've searched the entire hard drive, trash, ran recovery programs searched the cache and done everything I can think of and they are simply vanished.  There were there. The camera card was reformatted so they are gone from that too.

This problem has been ongoing since at least March of 2022. https://community.adobe.com/t5/bridge/ct-p/ct-bridge?page=1&sort=latest_replies&filter=all&lang=all&tabid=discussions It's a basic function and PNG is one of the most popular ways to store and share images since they're lossless and supported by just about everything. It just makes no sense for this problem to continue for years on end. The last couple of years have been a whirlwind of new ideas and updates, some of which have been incredible but before adding more you should really stop and just take a moment to fix the things that are broken.  

I don't seem to be able to find and activate the option to auto advance when rating an image.

thanks for any idea how to fix, that shostcuts for labels and stars is not working.... 🙂 its set up correctly, but nothing happens

I have followed the instructions on how to use Workflow to Batch Rename.1. I click "New Workflow" and "Batch Rename"2. I enter a new name for the workflow and click "Save"3. I enter the destination folder4. I enter the details on how I want the file to be named5. I drag my images onto the saved Workflow6. I get a message saying that changes have been made. Save? I click "Save"7. All the changes I've made to the filename disappear :-(.What am I doing wrong?

Like the title says, how can I get the webp file type association in Bridge? I know about changing the opener preferences.xml file, but that isn't working. When I try to open a webp file from Bridge, it still has the file type associated with Photoshop 2023 for some reason. Of course, I don't have that installed as we are on 2025. I can't even get webp to show in the list of file types in Bridge so that I can change the association. It's in the xml file, in alphabetical order too. What is my next step? It is absolutely ridiculous that this hasn't been added officially yet. 

On a previous PC i made a script to copy labels and ratings from jpg to raw. I made it because I save both raw and jpg when photographing and when I look through Bridge load the jpg faster. So my workflow:Rate, label, delete jpgCopy rating etc to rawEdit the raw-files with high rating But nothing happens when I run this script (except the deselect all, that works). May you tell me why? #target bridge if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) { labelRate = MenuElement.create("command", "Label Rate from JPGs", "at the end of Tools","labelRate"); } labelRate.onSelect = function () { app.document.deselectAll(); var sels =app.document.getSelection("jpg"); for(var a in sels){ var sourceFile = File(sels.spec); var destFile = File(sourceFile.toString().replace(/jpg$/i,"arw")); if(!destFile.exists) continue; var thumb = new Thumbnail(destFile); thumb.rating = sels.rating; thumb.label = sels.label; } }; 

I have the latest version of Adobe Bridge CC on WIN 11. And although the preferred language for apps is set to German, Bridge is displayed in English. All other apps are displayed in German. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't help either. How can I change this?

See Update #1, 2025-01-16 below.See Update #2, 2025-01-16 below When using the latest version of Bridge (15.0.2.432) I have noticed that sometimes Bridge has a continued (very) high CPU usage for no reason. I can reproduce this 100% (system details below): start Bridgeenter "maximized" mode for the Bridge app window (so that the Bridge window fills the whole screen)enter "Filmstrip" modego to a folder with more than around 40 images (see below *)   (I have tested this with both small JPEGs and with large TIFFs, see also about filters below)Bridge may or may not generate thumbnails and/or previews (does not matter for this bug/problem)wait until the CPU usage for Bridge falls to its idle level (around 0.1% in my case)now enter "Light Table" modeat first nothing happenscover part or the whole Bridge windows with another app (I used the Task Manager when experimenting)then bring the Bridge window to the front, so that the Bridge window is fully exposed a

Adobe Bridge 15.0.1 is still slow. The last working fast version was 14.0.0. I don't understand what you did to it. 😞 The preview function is still slow to load since version 14.0.1 and it takes a few seconds longer. Try to focus on this problem. Waiting for the preview to render is really annoying. It happens even after all the thumbnails and previews are rendered and cached. Thanks I am sending a video demonstration of version 14.0.0, which is functional, and the current version 15.0.1, which is slow.V14.0.0  OK V15.0.1 NOT OK  -------------------M1 Max / 32 RAM /2TB SSD / Last mac os update

I find it odd/unnecessary that when I start my MBP, attached by a thunderbold cable to an iMac running with some external disks I ALWAYS need to mount all the disks in MBP, again and again (after MBP being detached). They are there, all the time. For example, it is possible to mount disks directly from another app, Carbon Copy Cloner. That would be a nice feature in Bridge! This is a proposition for Adobe, or if there is a solution let me know!

Hi, since Bridge 2023- new collections created by script do not show up; one has to close and reopen bridge- script items meant to appear in the context menu "after submenu/MoveTo" instead appear in the tools menu

Hello!  When I go and rename a batch and place it in a new folder, it looks as if the image is saved smaller or with a lower quality. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or how to properly batch rename. 

Can we configure an auto-advance (caps lock) shortcut in Bridge like the one in Lightroom? It would cut down on carpal tunnel!!

Bridge was working fine when installed a week ago (6/26/23- version 13.0.3.693) on a Mac Studio M2 max (ventura 13.4). Opened up folder of photos from iPhone 14 and appended meta data as usual (with copyright info etc.). Half the photos show the correct creation date (7/2/23) and the other half the wrong date (6/25/23). In settings I purged all caches- no fix. There are many reasons that is not a good thing- one being the order of listing. Please help!
