Questions

I have Bridge 2014 and use its own search tool. Ever since I got a new Mac with the same version of 2014 the search tool can only find certain documents. Other people can find the files fine but I'm the only one with the problem.

It appears that Bridge’s edit menu > Develop Settings > Clear do not remove Camera Raw Settings metadata that is baked into a JPEG file.One can remove all XMP metadata, however that is a little extreme, it should be possible to target only the CRS metadata and clear it, leaving all other metadata intact (this is possible using ExifTool)…I had a go at hacking an existing script, however it does not work. I’m sure that I’m missing something simple! Can anybody please help?// https://forums.adobe.com/thread/290238#target bridge // let EntendScript know what app the script is forclearCRS.execute = function(){// create a method for that object  var sels = app.document.selections;// store the array of selected files  for (var i = 0; i < sels.length; i++){//loop though that array    var md = sels.synchronousMetadata;// get the metadata for the file     md.namespace = "http://ns.adobe.com/camera-raw-settings/1.0/";// set the namespace 

I followed the instructions on the installation page, the OUTPUT button appears in Bridge but doesn't lead to anything when I click it. Another weird thing, when I went to Application Support > Adobe I found that I had a Bridge CC 2017 folder but no Bridge CC 2017 Extensions folder. I bet that's part of the problem but I don't know know what to do and I don't know why adobe keeps making this stuff more complicated with every update. Please help, I need this for work!

Hi!I have uploaded a folder of jpegs into Bridge that I have made minor adjustments to by bringing them into Camera Raw. Now I can't find how to apply the adjustments to the file (or export the images with the new adjustments if that makes sense). I know I could bring them all into Camera raw and save back into the folder one by one but is there an easier way? Hope this makes sense!

... in the preview? Bridge CC 2017 release on W10?

I have added keywords to my illustration assets that I used for searching in Adobe Bridge. Is there a way to search for assets using keywords rather than just the file name in Adobe CC Assets?

I am trying to install the output module on Adobe Bridge. I am totally new to Creative Suite and photoshop. I can't find any information on bridge extensions at all. Here's the page I found on installing the output module- http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/install-output-module-bridge-cc.htmlI downloaded it but after that is says to copy it into the extension folder. Where is the extension folder? Is it is Bridge? Is it in Finder? Any information on extensions is much appreciated! What exactly are extensions? What is the difference between the extension folder and extension manager? Thank you!

Hi,I work in Lightroom where I fill in the caption and rate my pictures with stars.Normally when I open the same set of pictures in Bridge the caption is filled in, with the same star rating.But since this week not anymore. When I open my folder with pictures the caption is blank and no rating. When I want to move my folder to my back up disk, I will be moving pictures with an empty caption. So now I have to fill in and rate the pictures again also in Bridge Does anybody know, how to solve this?

I upgraded my version of Bridge CC to cc version 2017. When I click on the icon it starts for about 1 to2 seconds and then shuts itself off. I have a iMac running OSX Sierra. I tried to reset the preferences to no avail. the version I upgraded from was Bridge CC2015.  This issue initially started when I tried to install the output module for bridge CC 2017.

Using Window 7, with CC17 - everything seems up to date.I am using Bridge's batch rename to rename mov clips. When I select all of the clips in the folder and perform a batch rename one clip is left off.  This happens repeatedly on multiple different folders of movs I've tried.  While I can easily rename the single missed file it is now out of order in the name's sequenial listing.  I have double and triple checked that all the files are selected when I perform the batch rename.Any ideas or advice?thanks,  jeff

When I select and double click a group of *.NEF files in Bridge CC (2017) I get the following popup message: Metadata write operations pending. If you continue and apply Camera Raw settings, they may be overwritten by pending metadata write operation. Not sure what this message means, but if I continue there appears to be no problem.  Any info on this would be appreciated.

We are having the issue with not being able to see our Camera Raw files in bridge.They do open in photo shop, but the files are not visible in bridge.We are currently updated with the latest bridge as well as camera raw settings.Camera raw file is from the Canon 5D Mark 4.We also tried to clear the history in bridge, including the cache.Any Suggestions?

I have both the Creative Suite 6, and Photoshop CC on my computer.  When I use the "Load files into Photoshop Layers" tool in Bridge CS6, it loads my TIFF files into layers in Photoshop CS6, but I'd like it to load those layers in Photoshop CC instead.  How do I accomplish this?  In Preferences, I have the File Type Associations for TIFFs set to Photoshop CC 2017.

Hello! I can label and star rate every file on my hard drive except the audio files from a number of sfx libraries I got from different websites. Neither hotkeys nor label menu or rating column work. What is that? Some bridge settings or some kind of embedded protection these audio files may have? Thanks for your time.

If you close out Bridge while you have Raw files converting, the dialog box of the conversion remains open. Is there a way to re-open Bridge while the conversion is still happening? Thank you

I just installed Photoshop with Bridge for a week's free trial. Before I consider purchasing it, however, I'd like to know if there are any features to remove print (specifically, type) from a photo in my pictures folder. I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to do that.Please tell me how to do that. Thanks.

Hey there,So I am very unfamiliar with Adobe Bridge. I have read up on it and I understand that it allows for a more efficient way of organizing, naming, and cataloging photos and other digital assets. The thing I wanted to know was are the tags and labels you apply to files on Bridge universal? So if you were to upload an image that was handled on Bridge onto Flickr, Barberstock, or some other photography platform, would the image's information and metadata be retained? Thank you.

Hi BR forumI can only set up 21 favorite posts/items in Favorite panel in Bridge CC - I have tried to reset preferences but to no avail.Is there anyway I can get more than 21 items in Favorite panel...?

I was working on a batch of photos in Adobe Bridge when I accidentally hit my hard drive cord, which lost the connection for a second. When I went to hit 'Done' a message box came up that said that the files couldn't be found, and all of my edit work was lost. At least everything since the last time I hit 'Done'. It was two hours of work and hundreds of photos that I had to redo. I spent awhile searching for some kind of autosave or recovery option but none seems to exist. Am I missing something? Is there a way to have an autosave on like there is in Premiere so that if something happens, the work will be saved as I go? Or is there a way to recover that data so I don't have to redo it all? I can't seem to find an answer to this. If someone could help me, I would very much appreciate it. Thanks,- R

After an update 2 weeks ago to Bridge CC (2017) I've not been able to open or use the program. I also attempted to add on the output setting for creating pdfs - perhaps this is an issue? Please help. It might be my most used program (I'm a photo editor) and I can't figure anything out.

I am using Adobe Bridge 2017 on a Mac. What does the New Window command do?I thought it created a new window to import photos in but it didn't seem to do anything form my vantage point.Where should I go to delete these new windows?Thanks[Moved from the non-technical Lounge Forum to the specific Program forum...

Quite often when I select a directory in Bridge I have to wait a minute or more for it to allow me to select a subdirectory.  I have to wait for the program to show the thumbnails for everything in the selected directory.  Needless to say, this causes huge wastes of time when all I want to do is get into a subdirectory.Is there a preference somehwere that tells Bridge to prioritize showing subdirectories (and, ideally, filenames) BEFORE generating thumbnail images?  Such an option would be a tremendous speed-up for my workflow.If it matters, I'm on Windows 10.  And I've had this same problem with both CS6 and the CC version of the Adobe suite on several different computers.Thanks,rgames

Bridge has been slow and freezer 8 out of 10 times this is after the last update

Hello,I would like to know if it is possible in Bridge to transform/export collections into "real" windows files?I explain : I have some photos that I'd like to put into differents files, without creating a duplicate each time, for example I have a head of Augustus, and I want it to be in an "Augustus" file + an alias in a "Museum name" file. This is exactly what Bridge does in Collections, but now I want to have access to the files in my windows documents and not ony in Bridge, to sum up to export/transform those collection into real windows files with alias inside... if it is possible!Thank you so much for your precious help!Paulineps. I'm using Bridge CC 2017
