Question

Bridge 12 and Mac OS Sequoia

I can't believe Adobe is dropping support for Bridge 12 in Sequoia. It's still the most stable version of Bridge in my opinion. We had all sorts of issues with Bridge 14+ on an M2 Mac mini. There were weird thumbnail caching issues with external usb hard drives. They would constantly reload and take forever to reload every time you launched the app. Labeling and tagging images would sometimes revert for no reason. Any chance you could just revert the changes and go back to Bridge 12 when everything worked? If not, I'm afraid we're stuck on Sonoma for the forseeable future. These newer Bridge updates have just gotten worse and worse.

Bridge 12 still works fine on Sequoia, both Intel and Apple Silicon, but apparently Adobe is dropping it from the CC App. So make sure you have a copy archived. I still use v12 in production because its more stable and has a better feature set than the newer releases. v15 is a big improvement over v13 but development progress is glacial.
