Hi, I have a user reporting an issue with Adobe Bridge's latest updates. They use color tagging on Finder, and have been reliably able to carry the color tags over on local fileserver connections on older versions of Bridge, but now can't. She downgraded after noticing the problem only for the problem to continue regardless.

Hello, I need to have a shared over network Bridge cache often 'fresh' and updated.What is the path I should follow?Just export the cache for the folders once in a while, maybe regularly?Or purge the cache first, then re-export it completely, regularly as well?Thanks!

Occationally my keywords seem to just disappear.I'm sure it's a cache issue. So I created a new folder on a larger drive, but I need to tell Bridge to scan all the videos there for the metadata that holds the keywords. If I type in "car" in the search panel (looking for everything with "car" keyword) it says "no item in folder", even though I have a thousand images with "car" keyword that were searchable yesterday.Alternatively, I can go into a folder, highlight the videos, and then the keywords register, and if I type "car" again, it will recognize where it is and show me.However, I have like 20k videos. Is there a button that I can click that scans a folder (and sub-folder) to recognize the keywords of all the videos/images? It will take forever to open each folder, highlight the contents, then move to the next folder. Thanks in advance.Van

Hi Just wondering if anyone knows how to add winrar options in the context menu within bridge? Like in explorer when right clicking a folder or file there is an option in the context menu to "add to archive" or compress folder and so on. Can these options be added to the context menu in Bridge as well? Thanks! 

problème de prévisualisation - Depuis que j'ai installé la dernière version de Bridge, j'ai un problème de prévisualisation. J'ai désinstallé l'application et réinstallé à nouveau, mais le problème persiste. Dès que j'utilise la barre d'espacement pour prévisualiser mon fichier, le curseur se déplace dans l'espace de recherche au lieu d'afficher le fichier.  Est-ce que vous avez une solution pour moi ? 

After the latest Bridge update (12.0.0.234), when I import my files, Adobe Photo Downloader (the utility that comes wit Br) "spawns" other folders with duplicate content. In the example attached there was only one photo in memory (XQD) just formatted. I would appreciate any guidance to avoid this problem. (iMac 27" 2020, OS X 11.6)

Hi all, I am using the RAW converter via Adobe Bridge and have a problem to get the Profiles for the cameras Sony A7iii, Lumix DC-S5 and Leica SL2-S shown as an option. Please be aware that I set up the cameras as a Pre-Set as a Raw Standards in Adobe Bridge but the system doees no show the camera profile as an option. I am wondering that the camera profiles for the M10 and M11 will be shown as an option in Adobe Bridge. Can some advise how to overcome this hurdle? Many thanks in advance.

Under Preferences - Date - no format optionsSome of my thumbnails showed xx/xx/xxxx and some Month/Year as July 2022Am I missing a step somewhere?  Bridge Version 11.1.1.185I have looked at Bridge User Guide and Google - unable to find a way to change the date format.Thank You

Bridge 2022 • V. 12.0.1.246  • MacBookPro M1 • OSX BigSur 11.6.4 When deleting a single file to trash, it moves ALL folder to trash,then show a window with starting parent folder.Happens for evey file, every folder.Uninstall + new installation + flush preferences + restart = same issue. Any idea ?

I updated Bridge this afternoon to version 2022. Afterwards, every time that I attempted to delete an image from a clients folder, it deleted the entire folder of photos. It keeps moving the entire folder to the trash. Once I unistalled the latest version and went back to Bridge 2021, I didn't have the same issue. I can delete one image at a time and not have the entire folder and contents moved to the trash. Can someone please check the latest version and update the bugs? Thank you!Amy Bezek Photography

Hello all -- I have read prior questions on this topic and tried the suggested fixes including reinstalling Bridge but to no avail. RAW images appear in color in the Downloader frame, and are initially in color in the folder when that window pops up but then one by one the color RAW images turn to black and white.  When opened in ACR or PS the images remain black and white.Any new thoughts on this problem?  Thought perhaps that it might be a glitch in ACR given that the D-Lux 7 is so recently introduced but would obviously like to remedy the problem as quickly as I can.Thanks,Gary

It's several years and Photo Downloader continues to function very unreliably.1. On my other computer using OS Big Sur, it doesn't hold the Advanced Settings at all2. On my MacBook Air running OS Mojave, it retains the advanced settings BUT... 3. On both computers and OSs, it quits out midstream of downloading. This can be for large quantities, such as 70 or more, and also for small, such as only 8 photos. I am traveling and losing tons of time doing my daily download of photos. Does someone have the reason and more importantly the fix for this?If someone from Adobe could weigh in and explain why an app so reliable over 5 years ago has become riddled with problems and let us know now to fix (and if impossible, then how soon will it be -- last time I checked over 2 years ago, they indicated it was being worked on and would be soon... what happened?)?Thank you.Shelley

I have the latest version of Bridge installed.I want to export some images to PNG, but I have only an option to choose JPG.Very frustrating, dont know what to do...

I have lost the whole ability to Label (colour label the file with red: cmd-6 for example) or add a rating (Add a number of stars to a file eg with the number cmd-5 for a '5-star' image). When I press these keys it doesn't change in my thumbnail (content frame) or change in my filter frame.  I've never had this problem before and my Bridge is up to date Anyone any solutions for this please? Thanks Dave

How to export photo to email without using the cloud  

Have been with three techs and the issue seems to have gotten worse.   Initial problem was with Bridge adding 3 key words to all my images from a 3-4 year photoshoot.   After working with remote support, the last tech says that Creative Cloud is not working properly.  It shows my account and that my applications are up to date, BUT, PS CC, Bridge all show install on them.    Any image I open (RAW - NEF, DNG, JPEG) immediately  open to PS even though Camera Raw is checked in preferences.  DNG files that go to PS  result in a window that says the format is not supported.   I have a Nikon Z9 and know that HE is not supported but I was working with images from PhotoMechanic into Bridge.   Now nothing works. Tech reinstalled Creative Cloud, PS and Bridge.    I called Apple and we tried to use Time Machine - but that did not work as the applications are being pulled from Adobe CC from latest version so it appears I can't go bac

Step 1: Organize photos in the order I want themStep 2: Batch rename all the photos (10 photos +/-)Step 3: A random order appears after the batch rename and I have to click on the SORT choice again. Question.. When I organize the photos and do the batch rename, why is Bridge "scrambling " the order? Why can't Bridge just keep theim in the order I just set them to? This need to "Sort again" is a killer for our work flow.  Any advice? Bridge team.. time for a bug fix?Thank you!

I just updated to the latest version of Bridge on my Mac, and I can see thumbnails for my photos and when I click on some of them they somtimes show in the Preview window and sometimes they dont, though they never display large when I press spacebar. Is there something I can do to fix this?Thanks

Why is there still no option to add Metadata in a contact sheet? It should be a simple checkbox or dropdown selection in the output window native to Bridge.

When I make smart collections I often use different types of document in the search. I encountering an issue when I either try to add multiple document types or to change the exisiting type of document, I have lost all of the different types of file to look for. This has just started in the past week. I'm using windows 10 and bridge 12.0.1.246 CC is telling me it's up to date, so I'm stumped.   

I am using a SD Card adapter into a Thunderbolt port on the new 24" iMac (MonteryOS). The software is Bridge v12.0.1.246. It seems to be reading the SD card very slowly to display the images into the "Get Photos from Camera" funtion. Is anyone else having this issue and/or is there a solution?   Thank you     {Thread title edited by moderator}

mon mac book pro est en high sierra, comment installer une version antérieure compatible. J'ai un abonnement à jour pour Bridge, PS et LR CC et LR classic

Am I correct in thinking that the webaccesslib is no longer available starting in version 11? The .dll file is not included in the Bridge folder as in previous versions (up to version 10). When I copy it to the correct folder I get an IO error. I'm gussing that Bridge no longer supports 32bit dll files as ExternalObject loadable libraries. Is this correct? Is there an alternative to this to support ftp/sftp via javascripting?
