Is this due to lack of space on my Starch drive and or my main hard drive?

Opening Bridge (the latest v.) resulted in old workspaces (MBP Pro M2). Restore of SavedWorkspaces from a TM Bup didn’t help. ChatGPT’s advices didn’t work. What can I do?

I have a bunch of camera photos that did not get GPS coordinates while shooting. I want to manually add the coordinates in Bridge but I can’t seem to do this. First off, I am aware that Bridge uses a specific format for its format because I keep getting this: I have the information and format that is required and can add one coordinate, Lattitude, I can't just click in the Longitude section to add that info without getting the above warning. Is there a way to turn that off so I can add the second coordinate? Is there a better way to do this?  I don’t really know why this should be so difficult. Your help would really be appreciated.

Hello everyone,I have recently transitioned from Windows 11 to a Mac Mini M4, using a Mac keyboard and a Keychron M6 mouse. On Windows, I relied heavily on FastStone Image Viewer because of its speed and intuitive navigation.Since moving to macOS, I have tried XnView; while it allows for mouse wheel navigation, I found it has other limitations compared to what I’m used to in FastStone. I would much prefer to use Adobe Bridge, but I am struggling with the mouse controls.Specifically, I would like to use the mouse wheel to scroll to the next or previous image. Currently, it seems that the mouse wheel, along with the left and right mouse buttons, are all defaulted to zooming/enlarging functions. Having three different physical inputs dedicated to the same magnifying action feels redundant for my workflow, and I would much prefer to reassign the wheel to navigation.Is there a setting I am missing to enable "Mouse Wheel to Next/Previous Image" in Bridge? If this isn't natively supported in

Bridge launches normally however is very very slow and does not work properly when not connected to the internet. It nowhere states that Bridge must be connected to the internet to work properly. I am not talking about launching or verifying subscription. Is there some setting that I must change?

I would really like to copy / paste keywords. I have several photos from a fitness shoot where I separate keywords by amenity, equipment, exercises, etc. Many times, we circle back and do the same exercise as early just later in the day in a different location. I like to view my photos in the Filmstrip, so I don't see the exercises we'll be repeating in a grid view.Is there a way to copy / paste keywords so that I don't have to click the boxes for each individual photo as I scroll through the photos in Filmstrip view?

I have the problem that Bridge photo downloader duplicates my files, so that I have to manually go through and delete every second image after the import. Any Idea what might be causing this? Camera is Fuji X-H2. Bridge Version 16.03

I have just tried to open Adobe Bridge 2026 and this message comes up: You can't open the application "Adobe Bridge 2026" because it may be damaged or incomplete. can anyone tell me how two fix this please?Thanks 

I want to be able to click on an images thumbnail in Bridge, and have the image open for viewing in Windows Photo Viewer in W11.    All online searches point me to amending the file association. BUT, there is no Photo.exe to link to since the W11 Photo viewer appears to be a DLL OR is there another way to trigger this ? How do I associate JPG’s or any/all Bridge thumbnails to open in Windows Photo viewer instead of Elements. Native "Windows Explorer" opens JPG's into W11 Photo Viewer.  But when the Bridge association is set to "Explorer settings" they still open into Elements. Selecting the DLL appears to list Photoviewer but then when I click it says there are no associations with JPGs.  Around in circles.  

I'm trying to switch from Picasa to Bridge as my photo organizer.  My main problem with Bridge is that it doesn't automatically recognize the tags created in Picasa as keywords. It seems to recognize them as "unassigned" keywords and displays them in the keyword panel in italics, but each one has to be right-clicked on and converted to "Persistent" to remove the italics and have the keyword entered into Bridge's library of keywords.  Since I have hundreds of keywords, that's not going to work for me.  Is there a faster way?

Have been able to add keywords and change capture time in Bridge (all versions) up until recently. However, created a few with Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra this month. None of these are able to be edited by Bridge - tried all versions, including the latest beta. The videos were taken in H.264 format.Current version Bridge is 16.0.2.23Is there anything else I can do?

My last Windows 10 desktop gave up the ghost rather suddenly, and I moved to a Windows 11 HP desktop replacement.  Of course I had to re-install my favourite programmes and in the process the file “Adobe Bridge Keywords.xml” from my old system was overwritten by a new file with just a few American  suggestions for Keywords (eg: Places/New York, Events/Thanksgiving etc.)  appearing on Bridge when I opened it.  I kick myself for not making a better System Backup.Today I started the job of giving my photos Keywords again by creating the beginning of a Keyword tree in the Keywords panel. My new Keyword list appeared in the Adobe Bridge Keywords.xml file.  Before linking the photos to the Keywords I  opened a folder dated 2004 in Bridge and found that the Keyword Panel was populated with the original Keywords that applied to these photos, although all in Italic Text .  This was a surprise to me as I had thought the keyword designations for these photos had been lost when the “Adobe Bridge K

Currently using Bridge 2026, but have Bridge 2020 in my Apps list (Windows 11). Try to uninstall 2020 but get the message ‘Specified product is not installed on this machine.’ Suggestion has been made to reinstall Bridge 2020 to correct any problems and then try to uninstall it. However, cannot find a Bridge 2020 installation file!

Adobe Bridge 15.0.3.525  Windows 11 Pro. Laptop Dell G16 I9 64gb of memory, 4TB SSD. Every 5 minutes or so Bridge freezes while I am working with it displaying “Not Responsive” in the title bar for maybe 30 seconds or so without any other error. Regardless how many photos are in the folder. Then it unfreezes like nothing ever happened. It happened with most previous versions too.  Thanks.  

how does one import CSV file metadata into Adobe Bridge selected images?(thus speeding up AI keywording process)

With my old laptop I could rate pictures in Full Screen Preview (Spacebar) mode, then I could see the rating in the lower left corner. But with my new Mac Book Air, I can only rate in the list of the file names. It doesn’t work in Full Screen or Review Mode anymore. How can I fix this?

Duplicate Collections do not preserve custom sort of the original. Tried every suggestion - drag and drop, "pre-set" manual, duplicate file in finder. Each method scrambles the sequence in the new collection. I do not want to rename the files in the original collection. Working with Bridge 2026, Mac OS 26.2.  Is this a hopeless pursuit?

Starting a few days ago, having selected an image to edit in ACR I found that choosing the Brush Tool produced an error message: “Bridge has encountered a problem and has to close.” I reported this but have received no advice by email. I deleted Bridge and re-installed: same problem occurs. I’ve cleared the cache: made no difference. I’ve updated PS & ACR: no difference.Having re-subscribed to Adobe CC only recently I am disenchanted with this persistent fault and zero contact from Adobe.

Working with LOT of images. Editing events. It's the M O S T  D R E A D E D  part of my photo life, because I edit in Bridge aka the slowest editing software on the planet Earth and beyond. Creating previews - takes forever. Getting 100% preview sharpness - takes forever. Exporting using Image Processor - IS. THE. SLOWEST. PROCESS... yeah you guessed it.. On planet Earth and beyond. I think I see my plants growing while waiting for Image processor to render from Raw to JPEG. Will make another post about that too. THIS TIME:I'm looking at 300 images at this moment. I want to scroll down, up, doesn't matter. I grab the scrolling bar, move it down and... the show started... Everything becomes unresponsive, meaning, I cannot stop it, I cannot click anything because - the scroll bar keeps on scrolling. It just scrolls... one screen down, two, three, four, and keeeeeps on scrolling. My options - take a 3 hour break, which I cannot because I AM PAID to edit the images. Or

When I have a folder with images that I want to open in Bridge, I used to be able to drag and drop the folder on the Bridge icon in the dock. This would launch Bridge and open to show all the images in that folder. This no longer works. Instead I have to launch Bridge, navigate to my external drive and then browse down until I get to the folder I want.I have a Mac computer running Ventura MacOS version 13.2.1. My Bridge version is 13.0.3. I have granted Bridge Full Disk Access in System Settings Privacy and Security.Does anyone know how I can get back to dragging and dropping folders onto Bridge?

Hi! I have my PS files on Google’s MyDrive in a folder. MyDrive and the folder are clearly visible and functional on my iMac and MBP M2 at the Finder level. However, Bridge doesn’t see them, although the files are off-line downloaded, physically, on my iMac’s external disk. ChatGPT tells me that I can work with my files in this way (and it sounds just rational). By now, my iMac and MBP are working fine. I haven’t any other issues with my two Macs. This is (once more) a strange thing with Adobe products. No other app in my life has ever objected to follow Finder in my Mac! So, how can I see the files on my Macs?? Regards, TuomasPS. Photoshop user since v. 3. 🙂 Sorry, originally I sent this message accidentally to the Fresco group, as it was not obvious to find, as to how to find “Ask a question”, in contrast to the previous situation (when the tab was clearly visible on the front page).

Hi all!I've made a script to fill in a feature missing from Bridge, the ability to copy metadata between files. It currently only supports a limited subset of metadata fields (the ones I use the most), but I'm happy to fufil requests to add more.Currently, these fields can be copied:HeadlineDescriptionKeywordsAlt Text (Alt Text & Extended Description)Location (Sublocation, City, State, Country, and Country Code)Usage:Select a file.Right click > Copy Property... OR Tools > Copy Property...Select the fields you would like to be copiedSelect the files you would like to paste toRight click > Paste Property OR Tools > Paste Property. You have the option of Overwriting the existing values or Appending, which appends Keywords but overwrites other fields.Installation:Go to Preferences and select the "Startup Scripts" tab.Click "Reveal Scripts in Explorer"Place the script file in the folder that opensRestart BridgeWhen prompted upon restarting, choose to enable the script.If the
