Bug Reports

Why is Bridge 15.1.1.729 starting to make thumbnails over and over again? I work in the same directory for weeks by now (6400 items), but every morning when I start Bridge, it starts making thumbs as if it has no thumbs in cache. All thumbs are gone!And when it starts making thumbs, it never finishes the job, but it quits making thumbs, whilst the thumbs are not competed until the whole directory is finished.This behaviour is very annoying, as it is very time-consuming and taking resources. Hope Adobe will fix this asap.......

Issue: In Camera raw, if I save CR3 image to JPG, the JPG image is noticeably brighter in the Bridge display. Bridge version: 15.1.1.729Operating system: Windows 11 Steps to reproduce (Very important): In a numbered list, the exact steps are needed to reproduce the problem. Open raw (CR3) image in Camera RAW Adjust imageSave image as JPG with maximum file size 3000 KBClick "Done"  to save the modifications to the raw file in an XMP sidecarActual result: JPG image appears somehat brighter than raw fileExpected result:JPG and raw should look identical.  It has worked this way in Bridge since I strted using Camera Raw in 2018.  

After opening a photo in Photoshop from Bridge, the edits that are made that affect metadata info, such as size and  ppi, are not automatically reflected, even though the image is refreshed. Only after selecting another photo and reselecting the edited one again, the changes are shown.

In the Camera Raw program, in the Crop function, after selecting the grid view, you cannot disable it to return to the grid of thirds view. The Show/Hide Grid Overlay button (CTRL-SHIFT-G) does not work. 

I updated to 15.1.1.729 and my raw files in neither the thumbnail nor the preview  appear as modified by the sidecar xmp files until I update them in the new version of Bridge. My raw files are Canon CR3.

Product: Adobe Bridge (latest release, macOS Sequoia 15.6)Issue:When a folder is named with only numbers (or numbers combined with underscore, e.g. 1200_628), Bridge does not display the expand arrow in the Folders panel — even though the folder actually contains multiple subfolders.Steps to Reproduce:Create a folder named 1200_628.Add several subfolders inside.Open Bridge and check the Folders panel.No expand arrow is displayed next to the folder.Expected Result:Any folder containing subfolders should display an expand arrow in the Folders panel, regardless of its name.Impact:This behavior causes confusion when organizing and navigating large projects with numeric naming conventions, especially in workflows where folder names are version numbers, dimensions, or ID codes.Request:Please fix so that Bridge consistently shows expand arrows for all folders containing subfolders, independent of naming scheme.

search in Russian language does not work

When trying to rename files, if the filename already includes a dot, bridge would rename the file and trim the extension. For example if I wanted to add a sequence to the filename:Filename:  PXL_20250817_063001570.NIGHT.jgpWould be renamed to 01_PXL_20250817_063001570.NIGHTBridge is obviously confusing the dot in the name and the dot that separates the extension.I have tried String Substitution to remove the dot in the file name but the problem is that String Substitution only has the option of "Original Filename" and "Intermediate Filename" and they both include the extension. I wish we had 2 more options "Original Filename and Extension" and "Intermediate Filename and Extension". So that the current options WOULD NOT include the extension.

I use Bridge to cull sessions, rating images at 1 star to know what I want to import to LR. It worked Sunday, and last night I tried to cull a session and the rating system in Bridge isn't working now. I've restarted the program, restarted the computer, ran all software updates (both apple and adobe), and uninstalled/reinstalled the program, and still nothing. I've tried all the resets/cache purging tips. It won't rate through the Label tab at the top of the page either.

Buongiorno segnalo problemi continui ad eseguire corretta esecuzione procedura di flusso di lavoro x elaborazione file fotografici Nikon.nef :> apertura file con Bridge > elaborazione file con Camera Raw > apertura file con Photoshop .9 volte su 10 il programma mi butta fuori e non riesco a terminare il mio flusso di lavoro.p.s. questo problema si è presentato da fine luglio e nonostante continui aggiornamenti scaricati ad agosto il problema continua !!!!!!!!!!!!grazie correzzioni bug 

I shoot real estate and use the group photos to HDR stacks in Bridge. This is to make it easier to organise the bracketed shots for culling.I encounter a problem with Bridge when using filters (color/rating). When you first make Bridge group your shots to HDR stacks it displays the first bracket as the thumbnail. As soon as you do any kind of filtering, it randomly displays a new thumbnail from the stack. Not terrible bug, but annoying.View attached video for the behaviour. I use Windows 11, Latest edition og Bridge.

Hi. I have an issue with Photoshop (Mac OS Sequoia 15.6). My version 26.9.0 is not embedding the color profile as it should as i save the photo in webp file (Save As with option to embed color profile). When i see the file in Bridge it says "color profile untagged". It does not happen with tiff, png and jpeg files, just with webp.  

Bridge v15.1.0.625 does not show transparency on PSB (Photoshop large document format) files on thumbnails, even not after purging the cache for them. On PSD (Photoshop format) files it is shown as expected. The export works normally.

Slideshow stalls after three imagesBridge Version 15.11.729Windows 11 24H2 (I9 CPU and Nvidia RTX A4500 GPU)Bridge slideshow fails to work correctly (halts completely on the third image) and occasionally causes Bridge to crash in the following circumstances:The selected images are from a collection (smart or not)Images are selected by choosing a higher level folder and using View>Show Items from SubfoldersThis is not dependent upon the file type - tested with JPEG, DNG and TIFF nor the number of images.Slide duration, Caption, type of fill (Centred, Scaled to Fit, Scaled to Fill) Transition Options and Transition Speed do not seem to affect this issue for better or worse. Note that there is no problem with the slideshow displaying correctly when the images are from a single folder, regardless of the number of images in that folder or their type. First posted about this issue in Nov 2023 but did not receive a single response.NVIDIA GPU studio driver updated many times

Bridge suddenly crashed and will not completely start. Upon starting, an error message will show, then when I clear the error message, it crashes. Auto report is turned on, so hopefully the system information is somewhere in the Adobe troubleshooting system.I uninstalled and reinstalled, and this did not fix it. I uninstalled and rolled back a few times to different older versions, and this did not fix it.  Every time I chose to not carry over the old preferences, so there shouldn't be any old preference files, but I suspect a file somewhere has been corrupted and is not being cleared with a reinstall.Screenshots. After the reinstall, the. usual "What's New" pops up.  In behind is the error messageThis is the unhelpful error message. Clicking on OK clears the message and Bridge then crashes. 

After the latest update the loop/magnifing device in the preview panel is not working properly and appears fuzzy despite the actual file once opened and enlarged (ctrl +) is quite clear and in focus

When I start Bridge it takes at least 30 seconds before anything appears in the program - all of the side panels and main content panel are totally empty. When I click anywhere on the program during this time, the title bar changes to "Bridge (Not Responding)" and the cursor just spins - clicking anywhere again just turns the display light grey and produces a pop-up with 2 options - "close the program" or "wait for program to respond". This occurs whether Bridge opens in a totally empty folder or one containing over 500 RAW photos. My first thought was that the Bridge cache was either full or exceeded the allocated size, but compacting the cache, purging 100% previews in cache and purging all local cache files doesn't affect this behaviour. When Bridge is starting, the Windows Task Manager shows Bridge using 0% cpu, no disk activity, and program not responding.I always keep Bridge up to date, so has affected previous versions during the past 2-3 months but has now become

On the daily I'm using the shortcuts to change a picture's star and I got tired of using ctrl+1/ctrl+2/ctrl+3 etc. So I wanted to change them to 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and remove the ctrl key all together. However, even after changing it, those keys still default to some kind of navigation actions.  I don't know if I set it up wrong or something.

Adobe Bridge 2025 (15.1.1.729) on my MacBook M1 Pro running Sequoia 15.5.  When I preview a selected thumbnail by hitting the space bar, Bridge displays a full-screen image and a notification that it is generating a 100% High Quality Image. However, the image is not 100% pixel for pixel and appears blurry. I can force Bridge to generate the preview with this workaround:1. Click the preview to zoom out to "fit in window" view.2. Click again to 100% zoom in.After a second, I get the real pixel preview. So I know Bridge can do it, but this method of clicking in and out costs so much time with multiple images. Note: once the rendering of the image is complete, the preview looks good from there. This only happens to new images. I've tried every variety of preference settings for cache and cache management. Is there a fix other than reverting Bridge 2025 for this? Script support is also gone from Bridge 2025, so I can't use a script to force the preview generation. If I h

I add metadata to raw files in Bridge (version 15.1.1.729), and then export them to jpeg. The problem is that if I make a change to the description metadata item in the jpeg file, using Bridge, other applications (including Preview on MacOS) still show the original description. To get it right I have to make the change on the raw files, delete the jpeg files, and then re-export them. This adds significant time to my workflow.   Using the Jimpl.com metadata viewer I can see that the old description remains in the legacy IIM Caption-Abstract field, while the new one shows up in XMP description. The IPTC doc says that these two map to each other.   The attached jpeg shows the edited description (T. Wicklund #22) in XMP description and the original description (Tim Wicklund #22) in IIM Caption-Abstract. I need to make sure the original description is removed and won't show up again.   Since I cannot alter what is in Caption-Abstract (except by deleting and re-

Since version 15.1.1.729 I cannot dowlload files using Bridge. My memory card does not show up at all under the "get photos from camera". Win10 file explorer does, however see the card and files on it. Is there a fix to this? Thanks, Ed 

Anytime I change or add metadata to an image in a folder all the images in the folder are duplicated.  If I do it again they are triplicated.  I can clean the folder up by jumping to another folder then back to the original.  Never happened before in the 20 years I've been using Bridge.  Any help is appreciated.Bridge 15.1.1.729Imac Ventura 13.7.7 

I am running Bridge 15.1.1 on Windows 11. My problem is that Bridge does not show preview thumbnails for google pixel 8 pro mp4 video files. It works in Lightroom as well as Windows file explorer (after installing hevc codec).

The Full Screen Preview Key Command - Space - does not work on video files. Previews on videos can be initialized manually from the video, or through the key command if any other file type is selected first. Space to Full Screen Preview is a critical QOL feature for any digital media artist! Let's get this working! This mistep has gone on for far too long, and underserves the often under appreciated Bridge. Thank you! OS: Win10
