Bug Reports

I switched my Panasonic Lumix S1II Camera to the HEIF file system, and when I rate these images in Bridge, the thumbnail disappears and the file is no longer readable in any other program.  Iam running Mac OS 26.2 and Bridge 16.0.1.18.The Lumix Camera is on the newest software update and a model from last year.  

I reverted to using Bridge 5.0.2.4 x64. I don't think the slowliness is justifiable, for me speed is the requirement number 1 in Bridge

I have been scouring the forums to and see that this was a commonly reported issue in the past (didn't see much in the last couple years), but haven't found any solutions. Is there a solution or do I need to find an alternative importer? Any suggestions if I do need something else? I have a Prograde CFExpress/SD card reader, SD cards are identified correctly in the photo downloader, but not the CFexpress card. I understand the issue is tied to the CFexpress card basically being mounted as a harddrive, but it sounds like it has been solved in some versions of Bridge. I see tips on Macs, but that doesn't help me. Saw something about using a AutoPlay settings, but that didn't seem to help either, Bridge didn't show up in options for removeable drives, only memory cards, and didn't seem like the CFexpress card was flagged as a memory card... My setup:Bridge version: 16.0.1.18Card reader: Prograde PG05.5 (CFexpress + SD)Card: Prograde 512GB CFexpress 4.0 Type B GoldOS: W

Hello, I have been having issues with Adobe Bridge. Each time I try to open the Bridge app, I have to restart my laptop in order to open the app, even if I just turned on the computer.. When I start to edit then save, a error message pops up that says, " Unable to save the raw settings. There was a error writing the file. " I have been editing on this SD card with the images just fine, but now nothing is saving! What can I do?? 

After running sucessful Batch Rename to a series of (PNG) files, editing metadata for those files consistently fails to apply those edits to the first file, where the metadata is more or less sucessfully applied to other selected files. (Sometimes, without regularity, one or two files, typically in the 20th to 24th position also fails to apply the metedata to on or two files, but this is not consistent.) Repeating the same metadata edits is sucessful the second time it's attempted to all files. This behavior seems to consistently occur after Batch Rename runs, and does not occur if metadata edits are attempted without a prior Batch Rename.

Can anyone help? Bridge crashing as I tried to rate Olympus RAW (ORF) files. I've shot Olympus since March with no such problem until yesterday. Though I rarely use Lightroom I got the same crash. This is a large folder of large photos. No problem working with processed JPEG files.Updated Bridge, reinstalled, cleared cache re-started computer, updated NVDIA graphics card.Windows 11. Microcenter gaming computer.Thanks.

I just installed Photoshop and Bridge on an M4 Mac Mini connected to a calibrated wide gamut display. Images show correct colors in Photoshop but Bridge thumbnails are oversaturated. They look fine in Bridge on my Windows PC but it seems Bridge on my Mac is ignoring my monitor's color profile and displaying oversaturated thumbnails due to the monitor's wide color gamut. I even asked ChatGPT and Gemini for help. Both gave me different possible solutions, neither worked. 

Bridge doesn't generate thumbnails for certain file types ( *.HEIC, *.PNG, *.MOV etc.)Since Bridge is being used as a simple gallery and media sorting app, being able to see thumbnail previews for all supported file types is a must.Could you please prioritize this feature in a future update?

 Hello, I am running out of patience with using the "Copy to" function via the right-click menu. If I prepare several folders and then use the right-click menu and "copy to" to copy RAW photos to them, usually nothing happens and the copying only works on the xth attempt. If I use Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, it works immediately—but I have to do it for each folder separately, which is time-consuming. Could you please look into this?This happens in both the current (2026) and previous versions of Bridge.Best regards,Michal T.

I just updated to CC2026 including the ACR 18.0. But I've noticed that when I opened a raw-file and during the selection of a preset a messsage appeared that the support of the GPU is stopped due to an unknown failure.  This happened nearly all the time, sometime only after the third file.When this issue appeared I've to restart not only ACR but also Bridge. My operation system is Win10 with the lastest updates.

Is it just me guys? Working on Macbook Pro 2021, M1 Pro. Bridge is 16.0.1.18. I do like the '26 Photoshop and Bridge quite a lot. But then client sent the 16bit images lol. And done. Reset bridge, reset and dump cache is on external SSD drive, the fastest I have - not working.If you have a way how to make it work - I'm all ear, guys! Thanks

Die Bridge 2026 verursacht in Verbindung mit dem RAW Coverter ein Problem.Es kam in der Vergangenheit immer mal wieder dazu, das bei der Bearbeitung undVeränderung der Regler zum Bild, das Bild plötzlich in der Ansicht verschwand undan dessen Stelle nur noch eine schwarze Fläche zu sehen war. Nach den letztenUpdates wird die Fläche auf der die Bilder angezeigt werden grundsätzlich und immerschwarz, sobald ich an einem Bild etwas verändere.Es wäre schön, wenn man das irgendwie wieder in den Griff bekommt. 

This is still now fixed. Can Adobe please take note. Bridge 2026 (issue still not resolved from Bridge 2025).Mac OSX 15.7 Sequoia Try scrolling a loupe over the large preview of an photo (scrolling the loupe with a trackpad or mouse), it does not want to scroll small amounts... so you need to move the mouse faster, at which point the loupe suddenly jumps into action juddering a long distance forward, then stops. A nightmare. Adobe you have my email pleae respond and say you are lookng into this.  It's been 2 years now, and nothing done. This is super basic stuff, plase sort it out, or just ask AI to sort it for you, whatever is easiest for you, just do it, surely me paying you counts for something? I know of NO other software that cannot scroll small amounts, slowly and smoothly, none, except Bridge.

The issue mentioned in the post below has not yet been fixed... (since bridge 2023) https://community.adobe.com/t5/bridge-bugs/preview-panel-of-bridge-2025-still-looks-jagged/idi-p/15513466 https://community.adobe.com/t5/bridge-discussions/rendering-options-and-jaggies-when-preview-size-is-small/m-p/14081999 https://community.adobe.com/t5/bridge-discussions/heavy-aliasing-in-bridge-23-previews/td-p/13417927 

Bridge is trying to render thumbnails from .raw and .RAW Noritsu and Pakon filmscanner files because it's thinking they are Panasonic.raw files. This results in a never ending loop with 600% CPU load with freeze, which even gets my Mac M5 cooking. Please add an option for not rendering certain file types. Besides, i see 100% load on idle with a fresh install with all startup scripts deactivated and CEO extensions removed, sitting in a folder with .dng files.So something is severely wrong here. Sorry for double posting. But the structure here is a bit confusing when coming from google. Breadcrumbs for navigation on smartphones would be a smart approach instead of 5 redirections.

I can enter full screen preview when a still image is selected by pressing the space bar. I can move to a video file using the arrow keys while still in preview. I cannot launch full screen video preview by pressing the space bar.  Bridge 16.0.0 on Windows 11 To repro:- Have a set of still images and videos in a folder.- Select a still image.- Press the space bar.- I see the image in full screen. Nice.- Press the arrow keys to see a video in full screen. Nice.- Press ESC to exit full screen preview.- Select a video.- Press the space bar. Result: Nothing happens.Expected: Space bar enters full screen video preview, just like it does for still images.

Bridge can apply ratings to still images by pressing 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 on the keyboard while in full screen preview. This doesn't work with videos. Bridge 16.0.0 on Windows 11To repro:- Have a set of photos and videos in a folder.- Select a photo and press space bar to launch full screen preview.- Press 1 to apply a 1 star rating.- Press right arrow until you get to a video.- Press 1 to apply a 1 star rating. Result: The video's star rating doesn't change.Expected: 1 star ratiung gets applied to the video just like it is for images.

(in Bridge 16.0.0.63)  OSX 15.6.1   Double click a 2 GIG .psb file and it wont open....  

Ik kan geen foto's meer printen vanuit Photoshop-programma. Bij 'Printerinstelling wordt het programma afgesloten van zodra ik 'Afdrukinstellingen' aanklik.Heeft iemand een tip/oplossing ?

This has happened a couple times in the last year or so ( obviously earlier occurances were tied to other updates ) .  Please correct. I do have the settings as below, so I would expect them to transfer over on the update.Supplemental note, I was unable to drag the bridge 2025 keyword xml file into the bridge 2025 folder using file explorer. I had to actually cut/paste the file.  Very odd.   Scott_Avery_0-1765041083262.png 

Hi, since upgrading to the latest version of Bridge I've got after every launch an announcemt something like this: Adobe Bridge would like to use other apps' information. I find this inappropriate, and I haven't yet found a way to prevent its coming. Please tell me how I can disbale that stupidity! Regards, Tuomas

Both versions of Bridge display files incorrectly, in my case TIFF files, which contain the new “Temperature and Tint” adjustment layer. To get the colors to display correctly, I have to create a merged pixel layer as the top layer. Bridge: 16.0.0.63 and newest Betamacos26 I tried the usual things like clearing the cache and resetting the bridge.As soon as an adjustment layer with temperature and tint is present, the colors are displayed incorrectly. If I place a merged pixel layer as the top layer, the image is displayed correctly.

New Beta Version of Bridge opens Lightrrom not Photohop Beta - I have checked preferances and it is Photoshop Beta that is set but it still opens lightroom. II get around it by righ clicking photo in Bridge and selection open with camera Raw.

I need Bridge to work on my Microsoft Surface Pro (ARM) Windows 11

I installed photoshop 26, set at Bridge/preferences/applications to invoke it and yet when I open a dng file from bridge - camera-raw of photoshop 25 is invoked; the icon of photoshop 26 at the bottom taskbar remains minimized and another expanded icon of photoshop 25 is added there. I have W11.
