What is the keyboart shortcut to renaming a file in Bridge?  I can't find it in menu or even their list anymore thanks!

Bridge 2024 (Version 14), was released today. It is still painfully slow. Manually moving photos is a horrible task. Luckily, Bridge 12 still works perfectly. If it ever stops working my entire workflow is in big trouble! 

Bonjour,Depuis aujourd'hui, j'ai un message d'erreur qui apparaît sur Bridge lorsque j'exporte mes photos, un message d'erreur apparaît : "pour la tâche appliquer les métadonnées, la destination ne peut pas écrire".Quelqu'un a t-il déjà rencontré cette difficulté ?Merci par avance pour votre réponse. Hello,Since today, I have an error message that appears on Bridge when I export my photos, an error message appears: "for the task apply metadata, destination can not write".Has anyone ever encountered this difficulty?Thank you in advance for your response.

Bridge 2021 isn't showing any files or folders on my shared server. Bridge 2020 had no issues. I'm running the most current version of Catalina.

The lists only move about a third of a line instead of one or two lines at once.This makes scrolling through these panels very laggy and slow.

Bonjour, Je ne peux plus utiliser Bridge. Dès que je lance l'application, la fenêtre devient blanche et une autre fenêtre affiche un rapport d'erreur à envoyer ou non. Je ne trouve aucune solution. Merci de m'aider si vous le pouvez. 

When using Adobe Bridge there is a check box called INK. What does it mean? When this box is checked I got short cut files only. 

Hola, cómo están? Estoy teniendo problemas de rendimiento cuando edito imágenes en Camera Raw y Lr, no importa la cantidad de imágenes que tenga en el lote sino que se agrava la situación cuando empiezo a usar máscaras. La memoria ram empieza a elevarse y no tiene límites, llega a consumir casi el 100% de la memoria, lo mismo me pasa con el CPU (procesador), sucede exclusivamente cuando comienzo a agregar máscaras sobre una imagen. Hasta hace dos semanas tenía 16 gb de ram y ahora aumenté a 32 gb y me sucede lo mismo en la misma situación. No se si hay algún problema de configuración en mi pc o cuál es el tema, cualquier ayuda o sugerencia me viene muy bien.  Les las características de la PC: Ssd 512 GB Nvme Western Digital Black Sn770MEMORIA RAM KINGSTONE RENEGADE (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHZ (DUAL CHANNEL)MICRO INTEL (1700) CORE I3-12100F 3.3GHZ ALDER LAKE MB INTEL (1700) ASUS TUF GAMING B660M-PLUS WIFI D4PLACA ASUS DUAL RTX3050 8GBGABINETE ASUS TUF GAMING GT301 ATX

My free Adobe Bridge download wouldn't complete the install w the message my Mac Os 10.15.7 (Catalina) needed to be updated.I'm not going to update my Mac Os. Period.Does this mean I can't install Bridge? If this is the case then WHY doesn't Adobe list this requirement before sending one over to the download/install page??

I updated to the new version of Bridge and Photoshop.  When i chooose an image then Image Processor, Photoshop opens then nothing happens.  Any Advice?

Hi all, Am I getting this wrong or is the format that GPS metadata is presented as in Bridge strange? I had to extract the data using Gimp to get the proper format:Bridge format:35,31.312N23,51.4365EProper format:35° 31' 18.720"23° 51' 26.190" Proper as in being able to look up the coordinates using Google maps.Anyone else having problems with this? Thanks,Carl

I have been a bridge user since the day it came out and consider it to be an essential part of my workflow. That is until the latest versions which are counter productive and useless at teats on a boar hog.That said, is there a way to install the '22 version?Thanks to those who know more than me,Joe

Habe in Verzeichnissen viele Bilder, z.B. 1700 Stück. Von diesen möchte ich einen PDF Kontaktbogen erstellen.4x4 Bilder je Seite, als 16 Stück. Es öffnet sich beim Start der Vorgangs ein Fenster.In diesem lese ich, dass es noch 1 Sekunde dauert und 25% fertig sind.Tatsächlich dauert es auf einem sehr leistungsfähigen MAC mindestens 15 bis 30  Minuten.Sind schon 2 Fehler. Offenbar werden 289 Seiten erstellt.Bei 1700 Dateien und 4x4=16 Bildern je Seite, sollten es wohl eher 106,25 Seiten werden?Ist wieder ein Fehler. Wo ist da der Fehler?

I have Adobe Bridge V15. Sometimes when I do a full screen view by pressing the spacebar, then it won't go back in the normal view even on pressing ESC or space bar or any other key. I have to Force Quit this application. It needs to be fixed. It has happened to me quite often.

Hi everybody,I want to have Dublin Core metadata in my templates, and have Bridge recognize the Dublin Core metadata that's been added by other programs. Does anybody know how to do this?Thank you!

Hello. RE: Photos and videos downloaded from iPhone 14 on a Mac Studio max computer. First, I apply permissions to all in folder- I don't know if that is neccessary, but it's a habit to avoid hang-ups with Bridge. Then I append Meta-Data from template list. Never had a problem with this, but now Bridge is acting irratically applying data to some files but not others- option is grayed out. In fact yesterday, I posted a problem with Bridge changing half the files to the wrong creation date and showing the wrong images on teh thumbnail previews. This is a real problem as I need to scrub through video thumbnails and rely on a real "creation date" time-line to save time in production. This also affects and distracts creativity. Every thing is new and up to date. why is all this happening?

Hello Adobe, the year is 2024 and the import of image files in Bridge still does not work via a CF Express card.Why is that? Please be so kind and inform.Thanks an best regardsMartin

Opening Bridge might result in immediate PC crach OR after few files browsed. Photoshop does NOT create reboots (I disabled in Prefrences the use of GPU acceleration inf Photoshop) and it did not help. GPU:   NVDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER with 566.03 driver from 10/22/2024 (issue existed in previous version too)OS:  Win 11 Pro, 10.0.26100 Build 26100  

I've been using Bridge professionally for over 20 years. One question has always baffled me. Why does Bridge create new previews when a set of images is reopened? It might not do if reopened immediately but it does if I open it the next day for instance. I always thought it was because the cache was being held on my main drive but recently got a M.2 SSD drive fitted to solely store bridges cache to see if it would help and it doesn't. I've read every tutorial and guide for the preferences settings.I have a cache size of 500GB and have barely used 50 GB in the month it's been fitted so it isn't full. I have "Keep 100% Previews" marked and to purge after 90 days.I work with large RAW sets for weddings and just feel that Bridge makes for more work than it need for itself and its been like this for decades. Even asking it to view the embedded previews doesn't help.I understand that if I'm viewing the set for the first time or if the set changes in some way then a new preview would be neede

If you need broader file-format support than offered by Lightroom but suffer from performance problems in recent Bridge versions – Eagle(.cool) might be a great companion-app for you.  I continue using Bridge to cull RAW images, to access ACR and to batch process images. To store and retrieve, files, I recently switched to Eagle – a visually super polished and very fast app that supports more than 100 file formats, RAW, Adobe formats, Vectors, even 3D formats.This app will not be for you, if you cannot live without keywording in EXIF and XMP: Eagle uses its own tagging and file annotation in JSON format, which for our particular use-case (sending images with metadata to a web-project) is even more suitable. You'll have the advantages of a typical database tool without running a database: Rename a keyword? Just press F2, and all images in all folders and collections that hold this tag will update: Try that in Bridge… What's also very helpful in our situation, is that one

Why is Desktop always the root directory?

Hi Community, the title says it all. Is there a way to make a smart collection part of a fixed collection? Drag and drop does not seem work. Background: usually I create a basic smart collection about an event. The selection criteria is based on a specific keyword. And every now and then I need to extend this basic collection with some more selected shots for other customers. Adding this specific keyword is no solution - afterwards I will have to remember the added shots and have to remove the keyword.Adding another temporary keyword is no solution as well - keyword handling in Bridge is as challening as brain surgery.... it's just too easy to mess them all up. So I strictly want to avoid unnecessary operational keywords. My idea was to just temporarily create a fixed collection, add the smart basic collection, and add some more selected shots for my purpose. When I don't need the fixed collection any more I just delete it. No keyword messing up, the basic smart col
