Bridge Search 14.0

Hi there!

My Bridge Search is not working. No files are found, unless I open the folders in the Bridge directory first. I have hundreds of folders in my Bridge directory and this would take me hours before I can apply one search for one keyword! 

I work on a Mac, my colleague on Windows and she doesn't experience this problem! 
Bridge for me is useless now!

Does anyone know how to deal with this?
THANKS!

Where do you have search searching? Just to the right of the search field, there is a dropdown menu to focus where you want the search to search.

 

One comment: if you're using the Spotlight options, Spotlight is an Apple function that monitors where everything is on your Mac. If you JUST created a new folder and JUST put a bunch of images into that folder, it may take some time for Spotlight to register all of the items there. (How long depends upon how many items you have and how busy your computer is at that point in time. Nonetheless, it's relatively fast, figure minutes to within an hour.

 

Let us know if that solves your issue.
