Bridge

The scrollbar in the side panel for the keywords is too narrow in Bridge 2024. How do you notice that?Because scrolling in the keyword list is too slow (see other bugs), you have to use the scrollbar more often. But since this is too narrow, in 1 out of 3 cases you don't hit the scrollbar but a keyword and are suddenly in the middle of drag & drop mode to move the keyword (which you have to cancel with ESC).Please fix this bug. (BTW: Why do you disable CTRL+V for pasting text here in the forum's posting textbox? - Is this (as Bridge) a trick to reconditioning users back from long-learned behavior?)

Adobe BRIDGE (Beta) v.15.00 does not start rsp. crashes immediately at start. I am working in macOS Monterey v. 12.7.6. - I already tried to deinstall v.15.00 and to download the earlier Bridge-version (worked OK). - But when I later again installed Bridge(Beta) 15.00 it failed again. Does anyone know a solution?(I also allready tried a refreshed download of the creative cloud assistant - but no result on the crash of Bridge 15.00)

Bonjourj'ai importé des photos de mon iphone 8 sur mon ordinateur. J'avais intégré des légendes. Sur Bridge (2023) je ne les retrouve pas dans les métadonnées. Est-ce que mes légendes sont définitivement perdues ? Bridge ne récupère pas les métadonnées comme celles-ci ? J'ai regardé sur les forum d'apple mais la question n'a pas été résolue non plus. Merci pour vos retours

I use the ISO date (year, month, day) as the first part of a keyword, followed by a description.When I enter a new date it is at the very bottom of the list and that requires scrolling, which is not practical.How to change the order of keywords from az into za, or as it is for my application that the last entered date is at the TOP of the list?

Adobe Bridge won't allow me to download raw images from either my Canon 50D or a card reader. I only get "no valid files found." Fortunately, when I plug the card reader into my computer, I can drag and drop the raw files onto my desktop, so I can still get them off of my camera, but, it's not how it should be.   Last week I downloaded 3 updates, so I'm now using:   Photoshop 2021 v22.0 Bridge 2012 v11.0.0.83 Camera Raw 13.0.1   macOS Catalina 10.15.7   [Moved from Using the Community (which is about the forums) to a better forum...

I use a Macbook Pro and store all my photos on an external hardrive. I use Adobe Bridge 2022. Today after plugging in the external hardrive I then open Bridge, it has become very slow and bridge shows a red circle with a white line through all my files! What does this mean & have I lost allmy work?Cheers, Louise

I have struggled with this HORRIBLE application for YEARS, like we all do.Why is is still so totally broken??For the past few days I have been trying to catalogue my images to create a new portfolio.  The only way to do this in Bridge is to use keywords. Is there any way at all to make this "feature" useable?

I'm having a problem with a seemly corrupt folder in Birdge. I tried to open it yesterday and now I'm stuck in a loop.  I get an error just saying 'Error' I click on OK and Bridge closes. I have deleted the folder from my computer, but still every time Bridge opens it goes back to the location of the old folder and the same happens again. I have re-installed it twice but still the same problem. Any one else had this issue?  

At the moment I am shooting in the raw+jpeg mode, as I often send the jpegs to friends that I was out shooting with on the same day, and then properly edit the raws later on. I was wondering if there's a way to delete both the raw and jpeg file pair if I take a poor shot, in order to speed up my workflow rather than going through and deleting both one by one. Many thanks in advance

Hello Bridge Community,is there a smart way to find (or filter) only those images that contain (automatically) applied GPS metadata? I found "Altitude" in the advanced search dropdown but nothing more. The search task should reveal all images which have Latitude and Longitude in the metadata attached.Thanks for your ideas!!Martin

I have been having a lot of problems with Bridge freezing when it opens. By freezing I mean that after the program opens, I get the busy circle and it will show "Not Responding" either right away or as soon as I click on anything . No erorr messages. Task manager shows 0% CPU and 0MB/s Disk activity.I typically open Bridge as follows: in Windows explorer, navigate to target folder, right-click, select "Show more options" then "Browse in Adobe Bridge 2024". I first thought that it had to do with which hard drive the folders were located on, but with more testing  I discovered that the hard drive has nothing to do with this: when I open Bridge from the Windows "Pictures" folder, or any subfolder of that, it works just fine. When I open it from a folder that is not a subfolder of "Pictures" (whether on the same hard drive or a different hard drive) it almost always freezes. The exception is (i.e. it works) when I open a folder with very few images in it. Note, that once Bridge starts

On Windows I moved my Bridge settings folder from %appdata%\Adobe\Bridge 2024 to a shared location so I can use the same settings etc. across multiple devices / OSes.However, on my Mac when I point ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Bridge 2024 to the shared location, it will cause Bridge to crash on opening.I assume there are some files within the Bridge 2024 settings folder where either a OS specific path is used or OS specific files, and this is causing the crash. I wondered what these were (so I can potentially sort the issue)?

Unfortunately at this point, I am unable to use Bridge 2023 in my production workflow because it is very, very buggy. This list was compiled on Windows 10 Pro, have not yet been able to do much testing on Mac. I do have both Intel and M1 Macs so I will be evaluating it there.   - Move only, no copy for drag-and-drop, even if Option key held down- Favorite not highlighted during drag, making it difficult to determine the drag target- "No Labels" and "No Ratings" in Filter panel (should be "No Label" and "No Rating")- Text spacing in Details mode, still VERY poor layout and use of space. I bugged this several versions ago in pre-release and it hasn't been addressed- No drive info (used/free/items) (this is basic, vital info.)- Metadata panel, poor text layout and wrapping (items truncated instead of wrapped, uses way too much space)- No tooltip for truncated panel text (Impossible to see what has been truncated)- Difficult to dock detached panels- No scrollbar arrows, too narrow scr

In Bridge, when I'm looking at thumbnails of images I have in a folder some of them will show an icon that looks like 3 sliders. Some of them will show an icon that looks like a cropping icon. Most of them have no icons at all. I've attached a screenshot to show what I mean. What are those icons telling me? How did they get on some thumbnails and not on others? 

Hey, I hafe a bunch of photos as BMP Format which I would like to export with Bridge as Tiff´s. It doesn´t matter how I try to export the photos, Bridge won´t do it. The error message says "not supported format". Also I just updated Bridge so that shouldn't be the problem.What can I do to solve that problem?Thanks for your help in advance!

Is there a way to find layered TIFF files in Bridge (or another method, perhaps scripting Bridge/Photoshop)?This came up on another forum, where layered TIFF files may be accidentally saved when they should be layered PSD for this workflow.The best that I have been able to do is use the Bridge FIND command to search all metadata excluding the keyword “Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw” as it appears that in CS6, a flat TIFF contains this phrase in XMP metadata, while a layered TIFF does not. Text layers can be found using the metadata keyword “layers”, however this does not find pixel or adjustment layers.There are alternative options with ExifTool or ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick, however I was looking for a “standard” Adobe option.Any ideas?

I used to quickly see my desktop with Command+D on Mac. I don't know how to set this key command in preferences.Any help would be much appreciated. 

My PC is crashing (shutting down and restarting) every time I start editing in Adobe Bridge. I've updated BIOS, renewed the water cooling component and re-installed the Adobe suite. Still it crashes after a minute or so of editing (in most cases the first file I work on). PLEASE help if you have any idea what might be causing this. On the verge of spending the best part of £2k on a new PC. Thank you!

I have a bunch of .ai files that show up differently in Bridge... some of them only show 1 artboard in the preview while other ones show all the artboards in the Bridge preview (which is the preferred behavior).  How do I force the Bridge previews to include all artboards in the .ai files?  

Today I noticed I can't open images from Bridge in Camera Raw or Photoshop on my Windows10 machine anymore. When I execute one of these commands Bridge freezes. Camera Raw does not open and I have to force Bridge to close in task manager.Photoshop opens but freezes in the image loading screen. Same here i have to force Bridge and Photoshop to close in the task manager.This happened before and after the latest update today.I cleared cache and did multiple reboots. I also tried the opposite way (in Photoshop, search in Bridge), this works fine, but I still can't open the image from Bridge in PS or CR.Any ideas how to fix this? Bridge v14.0.1Photoshop v25.2Windows 10, 22H2, 64 bitIntel Core i7, 32GB RAMNvidia GEForce, Asus Strix GTX1080

I've migrated to a new computer, exported the actions I've been using for years and imported them into Photoshop, where the work as expected. But when I try to batch process from Bridge using Image Processor, something I've done with the same actions 1000s of times, I cannot bypass the dialogue boxes asking me to OK them. Kind of defeats the whole purpose of automation. I've tried toggling the dialogue state in the action pallete, but no setting works to bypass them when in Bridge. I'm sure it's something simple that I may have even had to do before, but I'm a bit desperate to get this to work. As I said, the action itself is literally the same one I've been using for years, and it functions correctly on other computers, so I'm missing something in this new install.  Bridge 14.2.300Photoshop 25.11.0Ventura 13.6.9MacBook Pro 16-inch, 2023

Im running windows 10 pro, and use different Canon SLR cameras but recently it stopped downloading the images from all my cameras. when I plug the camera in the download window pops up. shows the camera and attempts to get the photos. It will stay this way until i shut the camera off.  Ive tried resetting the preferences, checking the auto run setting and updating and reloading bridge.  

I often shoot tethered  into a folder that is open in Bridge - in previous versions ( when running in filmstrip mode for example ) Bridge would auto advance to latest incoming photo - now I need to scroll to see it .  It can be very frustrating on a dynamic fast shoot . Is there any solution / workarounds  to get this behaviour ( Bridge advancing  automatically to latest photo )
