Questions

I create "contact sheets" in the output module of Bridge to give to clients to show all the images I have prepared.  Lately they are rendered with very high saturation and do not show color accurately - This does not occur all the time nor does it happen to all of the images on each page.  Any ideas on how to correct this?

I need to add date and time photo was taken. I know this is in metadata but I need it to be on the actual image in right hand corner. My Canon 6D doesn't automatically do this. Thanks for your input.

Running latest Adobe CC as of May 2019 (9.0.3.2.79). I occasionally use Bridge and, although a hassle, up until now I could export my latest, edited Lightroom keyword list and import it into Bridge whenever necessary. With this update, I no longer have the import/export capabilities in Bridge's Keyword panel. Any ideas where it went to? Is there an alternative method?

I would like to know why the same PSB is 24,49GB in Bridge, and opened in PS only 13,3GB ?

Trying to clean up some old projects with.jpg's created from .dng. Want to batch rename the pairs but it creates sequential file numbers. As an example if there are 2 images 1.dng 1.jpg   2.dng 2.jpg and I want to rename them Snow1.dng  Snow1.jpg   Snow2.dng  Snow2.jpg  the renaming will be  Snow1.dng  Snow2.jpg  Snow3.dng  Snow4.jpg. It works fine with pairs of RAW and JPG files but not DNG and JPG. Appreciate any suggestions.

When using Bridge 2019 for macOS the size of my thumbnails decrease when I use window managing apps to change the app window e.g. move Bridge's window to half way down the screen. In Bridge 2018 the thumbnails stay the same size, as they should. Can you fix this?

After Bridge CS4 glitched/froze last week while I was entitling an image, I came to the Forum and learned that I should purge central cache. After doing a Force Quit and after rebooting my iMac (OS 10.11.6), I did purges of individual folders first, then the central purge. But now I cannot Find anything using the Find box at the top right of CS4 or from the Edit>Find drop-down menu or by using Spotlight (which shows images, but not the dates or where the images are). I can always go to my hard drive and search for an image there and then, using the date, go back to Bridge and scroll to the date to see the image, but that gets old fast. What can I do to regain the Find feature? (Find works fine everywhere else.)Individual folders in CS4 also now take longer to populate the images and seem to be going through a different process than previously.Can anyone give me a solution to these issues?

New problem that’s started since upgrading to Bridge CC2019 (v 9.0.0.2014 on Mac OS 10.13.6):I work with a lot of Bridge Collections at work, and have others send me Collections from a massive image library at work. I also occasionally need to manually manipulate and edit the files to easily alter the locations of images or find missing images. This means we’re often moving .filelist files in and out of the Collections folder. (Of course, we do all of this when Bridge is closed, then relaunch.) As of the CC2019 upgrade, making changes in the folder sometimes (most of the time) prevents Bridge from relaunching. No error, crash, stall, or report window. Initially get the bouncing icon in the Dock, then… nothing. Even when restoring any removed files or removing new ones, Bridge refuses to launch. The only solution so far is uninstalling and reinstalling through the CC app. When it has launched after a change, Bridge has asked me if I wanted to import preferences from a previous version,

Hey guys- I always wanted to know what these icons (following figure) in adobe bridge refer to. I did some research but I couldnt find out. Considering that I use adobe bridge a lot, I thought maybe these file types can be helpful in becoming more organized.  Thank you

Usually I am able to add the info I want, such as location, keywords, description, etc.  Occasionaly, I get a message that the file doesn't have xmp and can't hold info.  Stranger is when I have all the metadata entered and saved, but then maybe as in the present case, I went to add something to the headline.  It said it can't hold data, and then all my previous info is wiped out and all the fields are blank. This is CC with .mov files

HiBatch rename is misbehaving! If I rename a group of pictures to include Date taken, it will always give one or several the date today! (the date of the batch renaming). I then have to rename those files singly. It didnt do this before.ThanksJohn

I am using Bridge CC 2019. I have made 5 star selects of about 46 jpegs that I am trying to export in a contact sheet with 2 columns and 3 rows to a Tabloid size PDF (8 pages total).The images are high resolution and look great in bridge, but when exported in the PDF they look terrible. They look extremely dark and pixelated compared to how they look in bridge.I am exporting them as "12", the highest quality, and 300 dpi. I tried with "preserve embedded color profile" both selected and deselected.

Hi, I have a client who has about 375,000 pages to scan. They just want to be able to search them by about 6 words. The words are pretty unique, like people's names & DOB etc., so they're not really "keywords". I'm wondering if they just put these words in one meta description field do you think that will work? Would all this go in a cache, that I believe has 100MB limit? So to search they would say "metadata contains xx" and "metadata contains yy"... Do you think the search time would be acceptable?Thanks!

I have both CC 2018 and 2019, however when I open an image in Bridge to edit it defaults to CC 2018. There is nothing in the preference box to get Bridge to use CC 2019. How do I get Bridge to select the correct version of PS as a default?

Earlier today I added some files to Adobe Bridge. No Problem. Now it won't open. I'm running version 9.02.219 of Bridge on Mac OS Mojave 10.14.2. Lots of RAM. When I installed Mojave I did a clean install, so there shouldn't be any legacy issues. Always installed Bridge via Creative Cloud.I have tried rebooting to no avail. I have tried opening Bridge holding down the Option key, and holding down the Shift + Option + Command keys.  The same dialog box pops up either way and I check all three boxes. This has worked when this issue cropped up in earlier versions of Bridge, but this time I get a spinning beach ball and have to force quit.I have about 12,000 images indexed in Bridge, but that is well below the limit. Looking through all the online commentary I get two categories of answer: start it up holding down the keys I mentioned earlier, or 'we have fixed this and please install the latest version of Bridge'. I have been using the latest version. And this has been going on for w

after working perfectly for a long time, now Bridge is crashing whenever I try to mark a photo with a label or a rating. It can open a folder of photos and view them full-screen but marking them makes it immediately crash.  This is completely updated Bridge 2019 and I've restarted my computer a few times. What makes it more baffling is that Bridge 2018 is working perfectly with no problems at all. O talked to an Adobe person for two hours yesterday and it still is not working.

Hello community, i have got serious problem about Adobe Bridge ower the years. The performance of this app while loading files from some folder i am browsing in is really terrible. Can someone help me with that? I have got 1500 images in one folder i need to rename but i really cannot. The Bridge simply stops responding!

In short: all other things equal, would the lower latency of SFP+ (fiber) vs 10GBASE-T (CAT6a) be noticeable when loading thousands of photos into Bridge?  Now the longer explanation: I have the option soon to upgrade my networking equipment and NAS, and happy to spend some $ to make things as *snappy* as possible, especially with loading/importing media for the first time. Right now i have a decent 10gbe setup over CAT6a direct to my QNAP -- and it's good -- but not quite as quick to load media (RAW photos usually) as from a locally connected SSD. I'd love to narrow that performance gap if possible. Wondering if there might be a improvement with Bridge performance by switching to SFP+. On paper, it appears the biggest practical difference is that SFP+ has better latency, so with loading thousands of images, i figure it might actually be noticeable. There are two concurrent users on our current NAS.  And for what it's worth, when i load photos they are usually from a section

Why does Bridge continue to associate with OLD versions of Adobe apps? All Photoshop associations are 2018. Even when it's not installed! And Illustrator is 2018 too. When I reset all associations to default it remains the same. And when I try and change associations the current programs are not available in the dropdown, even though sometimes older versions are! The only way is to navigate to the specific app in Explorer! This is ridiculous!

There is a problem in Adobe Bridge CC 2018 I can´t fix.The output-module to create overview pdf´s shows always wrong colors in preview and in ready pdf. what should I do?I mostly use jpg´s with embedded sRGB Profils for these action. I never had these problems wit adobe bridge CS5.1.best,Paul

Bridge is no longer showing info/details on thumbnail images when images have been opened and changes applied with Camera RAW... this was always there, and no longer is... is there a way to turn this feature back ON in Bridge that I am not seeing?

The plan includes PS and Lightroom.  Does that include Bridge?

HelloWhen I select all and do a batch rename as I have always done one file is missnamed to a different date one day later than all the others.This in new...Help please.John

Hi allIs it possible to export photos from Adobe Bridge onto your hard drive, I can't find any options in the programme.Thanks in advanceJohn

I just did a Rollback to Bridge 2018.Frankly, the consequences of a rollback can't be any worse than using Bridge 2019. I have experienced constant delays starting the application on my current (competent) Windows 10 machine, "ET Phone Home" or (something else), is going on. I have no cloud files, no network shared folders, & have cleared nearly all options that can be disabled. And the crashes, I crash at least once per session though admittedly in some cases if you wait out the (Not Responding) notice in the title bar it, more than not, eventually recover. Left to guess I would say the newer options to interface more deeply with Windows File Explorer may be one of the culprits.  This keeps happening Adobe. While pushing the envelopes to be the first to send your applications to the moon or do full blown publishing on a smartphone, you're making it more and more difficult for those of us on desktops who have been using and supporting you for decades.What's my question?
