Takes minutes or not at all for EXIF data to load once image is selected in Bridge 14.1.2 on Dell OS Windows 10 Enterprise 10.0.19045.

I've waited so long to post this -- been happening for years. and each time i figure it's something stupid i did or there will be a bug fix update or ok let me clear cache and preferences and maybe that will fix it. ... If i had to guess, this happens about once every 10-14 days. And it drives me insane. i get a few galleries loaded up in bridge -- thumbs all good to go (b/c i like to wait to cull bc can take several min to load everything; otherwise culling is annoyingly slow and will miss some star ratings if i apply them while it's loading the HQ preview; if you know, you know).Then the thumbs will spontaneously, like, 'go stale' or expire or something and Bridge decides to START OVER loading as if seeing the images for the first time. Bridge has been open the whole time and the drive w the cache (single m.2) has remained online.Just now, for example. i have five tabs in bridge w five recent events and everything was good to go (meaning, it was finished last night with loading and c

I am brand new to Bridge and trying to figure it all out.I need a photo organizer just our family photos - but I have a lot and have always organized them by date and used lots of tags/keywords etc. imbedded in the metadata.What I don’t understand about Bridge is that my list of Keywords does not seem to be static. I can’t look at the list of Keywords and see all the names of the members of my family for instance. Can someone explain how this works?Thank you

"Adobe Bridge": How can i see all contents listed by folders and their subfolders? Sorting my files via "Adobe Bridge" I would like to see- all contents including subfolders of a directory (using "Always show items from subfolders")+- the contents listed by folders  displayed in a manner like   "Folder A" + it's contents,  "Folder B" + it's contents, ... A mac-app called "viewit" did exactly that(but it does not fully work on the latest mac systems anymore). I look forward to hearing from you:Any ideas or hints are highly appreciated!

Hello. I have this minor but annoying problem:I have to batch rename several files in a folder in groups of 3-10 files. So what I do is: select the first files, batch rename them, select the next few, rename them and so on. The renaming works fine, but after the batch is processed, Bridge takes me back to the first file in that folder and I have to re-scroll down to where I was before. This is super annoying for folders with 200+ files.I guess this is a bug, since it worked fine for Bridge 2018... I am running Win 10 and Bridge is 10.0.2.131

After installing Bridge 2020 I can no longer open my Google Drive File Stream folder in Bridge. This is happening on my imac desktop and my Macbook Pro laptop. I changed my preferences so the entire folder is available offline but this did not solve the problem. Anyone else having this problem? Suggestions? I also use Dropbox and have no problem there, but switching all my files to Dropbox is not an option as my many of my clients are established on Google. 

Hi All, One thing I need and miss in OS X's Finder is the ability and the tools to better organize my files. I have quite a bit of data on my Mac between the internal and all external drives. It can be challenging at times to browse a find a specific file. With this in mind here is my question: I have looked at some of the options out there including Leap, Path Finder and Commander One but found that they don't offer much more than the Finder does. One option I have found that seems interesting is Adobe's Bridge. It offers the ability to tag files with keywords that can be searched and filtered, files can be rated and also color coded. Is there any reason why Adobe's Bridge would not be a good option as a Finder substitute? Thank you in advance.

Recently images will not open with the spacebar in full screen or any size- only by using Full Screen Preview - not as quick!I am using Bridge 14.1.2.300 and Sonoma 14.6.1.  This has never happened before.!

when I try to open Bridge I get a message that "The operation could not be completed. A write permissions error has occurred." This happens whether I open it from the Creative Cloud icon or going through the Applications folder. There is no suggestion as to how to fix this.

In the previous version of Bridge (13) I had inormation such as file size, dimension,  etc dispayed under each thumbnail. Now all I get is the file name. How can I get these details restored to each thumbnail?

Need some help. Whenever I travel with my laptop, I cannot open Camara Raw. When I click it, the system just hang. I have to click "ESC" to exit and can then only work in Photoshop. I cannot seem to find any solution on the internet. Even if I move my computer in the house to a different location, like in 30 meters away, it just won't open.  Please help! 

Bridge 14.0.2 is the worst EVER. It is painfully slow in seaching through files. I am very unproductive using this version. I had to go back to Br 12. Adobe needs to fix whatever is causing this problem FIRST. No other improvements should come before this matter.       [subject edited for clarity — was "👋 Welcome to the Photoshop Community"]    

I enter the title and keywords into basic metadata in Adobe Bridge, but after I got a new mac computer, the keywords no longer appear when I upload images to Adobe Stock and others. Does anyone else experience the same? Any workarounds?

I need to rename a folder full of images. Current file naming convention is Last_First_MonthYear.jpg and I need the file names to drop the _MonthYear and leave only Last_First.jpg.For example:Smith_John_Oct2024.jpg would becomeSmith_John.jpg

Bridge beta 15.0.0.369, macOS Sequoia 15.0. 1920x1080 display, medium UI element size in Bridge prefs. The metadata panel is not drawing properly and is utterly useless. Please see below image.

Since doing a clean install of MacOS, my audio / video files no longer preview in the preview panel Do I need to install a plugin maybe? 

I just installed Bridge on my computer and tried to personalize the layout but everything went wrong. I undocked panels and it became a mess.  How do I reset the default layout in Bridge? FYI, I never save any layouts in Bridge. Thank you  

I am trying to rename a group of images using batch rename in bribge.my file names are as follows:0025_12548.NEF0026_15942.NEF0029_24965.NEF0032_32549.NEF0035_35492.NEF0038_85426.NEF...ETC The first 4 numbers are a sequince number and the last 5 numbers are a student ID number that was changed using a Tether program when the photo was taken. I am needing to remove the sequince number so we have just the student ID number as the file name.12548.NEF15942.NEF24965.NEF32549.NEF35492.NEF85426.NEFI have seen ways to do it with Regular Expression through the community just cant figure it out or is there an easier way?

Hello all! So I ran into this weird problem, when I used Bridge/ACR on an older MacPro with Mojave the other day. I was editing RAW files from my Nikon D810 which worked totally fine, certainly fast enough to be a pleasurable experience.Later I worked on RAW files off a Nikon D7100, which was absolutely horrid. Camera Raw kept slowing down with spinning beach ball and being unresponsive for several seconds. I would have assumed that those D7100 files, being smaller than those D810 files, would have worked even better and faster. How is it possible that Camera Raw is this picky, especially when the files should have put even less strain on the CPU?Doesn't make sense! I hope somebody out there has an idea, because when things are bugging me, I want to get to the bottom of it 🙂 Thanks 🙂 Ginger  

Since arbitrary sizes besides 1, 1.25, and 1.5 work for UI scaling, please allow those instead of constraining to only those three.Just out of curiosity, why switch between an integer and a real?

As of today, the shortcuts Bridge for labelling (either numerical or cmd-x) don't seem to work. I have both Bridge (beta) and Bridge installed and the shortcuts don't seem to work with either. Even when I manually add a label it won't show it.  Help!

Setting up a home network for file and media sharing using a 2014 MacMini as the 'server' with 500GB NVMe, 1TB SATA storage, and various external storage drives.Connected computers will be a 2019 iMac27, another 2014 MacMini and a late 2014 MacBook Pro. Everything will be running the latest version of Ventura, except the MBPro that can't natively go beyond BigSur.Will Bridge function as a shared application, and are there any things I need to be aware of, please? I've noted the comments elsewhere about enabling the Files and Folders and the Full Disk Access settings under Privacy and Security.Currently having no problems using Bridge 2024 connected to my iMac for my DAM (nearly all photography), and I use non-Adobe applications for my processing (e.g. Affinity, DxO and Topaz).

I filed bugs against this in the PR what, five or six versions ago? And its STILL not fixed? In Details View, metadata is truncated or hidden. There is no scrollbar, columns are both way too large and cannot be resized, and it renders the whole thing unusable. 

How does Bridge determine which Adobe Portfolio web site to upload the images to?I tried this feature once and it sent the photos to one of my four Portfolio web sites.How did it choose the one it chose as opposed to the other three sites I have created?Is the decision based on the last site I was working on ? or ... Thanks ...
