Adobe Bridge 2024 didn't import keywords

I opened Bridge today and it had automatically updated to 2024. When it asked me to imprort previous settings, I said yes, but my keywords did not import. Are my keywords totally gone because of the automatic update? Why did they not import over when I said yes?

Merryn,

 

I ended up going back to version 12.04.286 Adobe 2022. I hate doing that, but I totally can't work without my CV.

Thanks.

I think the problem is that there are extra Tabs to the right of each keyword. Sometimes there are two Tabs, sometimes there are more. I think this is messing up How Bridge is parsing the file.

 

I can see the Tabs in Notepad++

 

I removed the trailing Tabs and got this:

 

Is this closer to what you were expecting?

Hello,

I am trying the beta version of Bridge. I tried to import my controlled vocabulary into keywords. It doesn’t bring the whole list in. When I am importing, I choose “clear and import”. I am importing a tab delimited Excel file. Am I doing something wrong? It used to work. I kind of need that feature to do my job.

Thanks in advance!

Totally having the same problem. Bridge is useless to me if I can't do this. I hope they fix this ASAP!

Are you just seeing the generic default keywords in 2024?

No, my keywords list is there, but it has aphabetized all my words and moved them out of their parent/child format. Totally won't work for me. I've reverted back to the 2022 version.
