Questions

I have re-purposed some code I found on this forum for creating a subfolder automagically but there is one little tidbit I cannot figure out how to code correctly. The goal is to grab a selection of RAW images, and create a folder with the name of the first image selected and move the images into it. I have functional code that does all of that, but I cannot figure out how to grab the name of the first file for the folder name. I have band-aided the code to ask for a name, but I am hoping that there is an easy solution for grabbing the first file name. #target bridge if(BridgeTalk.appName == 'bridge'){ selItems = MenuElement.create('command', 'Move DSC Images', 'at the end of Thumbnail'); } selItems.onSelect = function(){ try{ var thumbs = app.document.selections; var a = 0; if(thumbs.length < 1) return; var firstFile = prompt("Last 4 digits of first file name") ; if (firstFile== undefined) {return}; var newFolder = new Folder(app.document.presentationPath+"/"+'DS

Is there a way to add or edit the metadata on graphics files in CC Libraries?  I have some shared libraries of logos and graphics, and I'd like them to have titles and descriptions so that when I place them in Indesign I can use the XMP/IPTC metadata as alt text. This works fine with graphics files I have locally, I just add the metadata in Bridge, but when I bring up a CC Library in Bridge I don't see any way to add or edit the metadata of the files.

I just updated both Bridge (v. 13.0) and Photoshop (v. 24.0.1) and Bridge does not provide the Image Processor/Photoshop option. I uninstalled it and have tried other versions. I have been working on this for hours on two different Windows computers and my Mac, to no avail. ADOBE, FIX THIS RIDICULOUS ISSUE! WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR THIS!!!!!!

Just updated to Bridge 2022. And duess what???  It now takes forever to load the images thumbnail whenever I would go into a folder. I'd used Task Manager to kill the app. I'd open Bridge again. It would display the thumbnail of the last folder without issues but when I go into another folder again, it would take forever to display the thumbnail images again. Quite frustrating.

I try all 2023, 2024 & beta version of Br, but all of them need to force quit finall bcos of the memory problems, it s there any solution for that?I wait 2 months already but seems nothings improved after few times updatingi need to use Br usually, this issue really annoying. 

Since july, 1, Bridge does not reasd files on the NAS server correct. All files have size 0 bytes, and it won't open them. 2 days ago all was OK. Any idea?

I am curious to how much storage Adobe Bridge has? I am needing to store a lot of photos and videos on it.

You know those anxiety nightmares people get sometimes? Like... you're back in college, it's exam week, and you abruptly realize you forgot about a whole class? You meant to drop it months ago but it slipped your mind, so you never attended any lectures, did any readings, or completed any assignments? And the exam is in an hour? Your GPA is going to implode because you forgot about a class for the entire term when you were supposed to be preparing. Bridge 2023 is that class. My theory is that Adobe, busy as it was with the rest of it courseload software, collectively forgot all about Bridge until, like, last Tuesday. Then everybody was all "holy crap, the new Creative Suite rolls out in a week and we forgot about Bridge! Everybody get cracking, quick! Bob: write up six new features to add. Sally: add the features that Bob's writing up. Anna: get your crayons an draw a new UI. Katherine: Coffee! Brett: you're in charge of making it work with Apple Silicon.

Hi, * I looked through the community about relevant post about similar issues didn't find a solution and want to address my specific issue* In Adobe Bridge I went to move photos from an SD card to external HD, I had two batches of photos on the SD card the latest batch from 6-28-2024 and second older batch from 6-15-2024 I selected the photos right clicked "move to" a new folder on my external HD called 6-30-2024  after they finished moving I deleted them then went out of the SD card and into the external HD folder where I just moved them to start editing and only the older files from 6-15-204 have moved and not the newer photos (one's that I really need) from 6-28-2024 about 30-40 raw .CR2 photos are missing. I should have confirmed they were ALL in there before deleting but I can't ctr-z that, I thought it was ok because I can go restore them in Recycling Bin, but they are not there either? I'm not sure what happened to those newer photos as they didn't move into the respec

I recently migrated to a new MacBook Pro (M3Pro) and PhotoDownloader is no longer opening automatically nor detecting any photos. I spoke with support at length and they could not resolve this issue. I had read in various posts here about turning Rosetta on, but that didn't work. Any other suggestions I might try? Thanks for your help.  

Since the last update  (I use adobe CC) I cannot download photo's from card to my desktop computer (Windows) using Bridge. When I put the card in the reader it says: G:\ Toepassing niet gevonden (application not found). When I try to download photo's using Bridge (get photo's from camera) it says there are no devices found.  The card works, the photo's are on it, because when I try to acces the card I can see all the photo's. I would like to download photo's using Bridge again. Can anyone help me?I tried re-installing bridge, that doesn't work...Please help!  Thanks!! Carla

Hi,When using filters with photos in Adobe Bridge, you have to options filtering by date. You have "creation date" and "date and time, original" ( I am not sure if those are what they are called in English, I am using Bridge in my native language.) Am I right to guess that the first one is when the file is created, the second one is when the photo was taken?  I am curious to know why, when I am filtering photos on my memory card, those two filtering options sho completely different amount of photos? As I said, I am filtering the photos on my memory card before importing them anywhere, so I haven´t created any new files yet. If for example I choose to filter only RAW-photos on the card and then have a look at the creation date (Jun 24 for example), it might show 190 photos. Then, when I look at the original date and time, it might show something like 220 photos, with the same exact filters. Why is that?

I suspect I know the answer to this but is there anyway that Bridge can be made to recogonse and display Affinity Photo ( .afphto ) files?   Your in hope rather than expectation 🙂   Grumpy Hec

Adobe Bridge does not display the directory when viewing the image in the preview window.

Hallo, beim Öffnen der "Ausgabe"-Arbeitsbereiches wird die Vorschau des PDFs viel zu stark hereingezoomt dargestellt. Scheinbar passt sich die Anzeige nicht der Monitorgröße an (2880x1800 auf WIN 11 Laptop 13"). Ich habe es schon mehrfach neu installiert, inklusive älterer Versionen. Bisher scheint das aber nicht das Problem zu sein. Jemand eine Idee, woran es liegen könnte?  

Several weeks ago I installed the beta version of Photoshop and images from Bridge via ACR continued to be opened in the normal Photoshop. Yesterday all of a sudden Bridge opened images from ACR  in the beta version.In Bridge preferences > application Launch Options, I have selected  the version as Adobe Photoshop 2024 so what has gone wrong?

I cannot see Thumbnails nor Previews using Bridge 14.1 on Window 1. I just boxes instead.

Hi,in the new version of Bridge (14.0.4.222) i miss the option to open and edit the metadata for .eps files.To me this is an essential feature for tagging archived .eps-files along with other formats. Has this function been removed by mistake and is it intended to be re-introduced in a future version? Thanks!

Good evening. Since I installed the new version of Adobe Bridge 14.1.0.257 the Image Processor wont work anymore. It just taked me to Photoshop and will NOT run the script with the photo i selected to be processed (convert NEF to GPEG). What should i do, is there a fix? I am also runnning photoshop version 25.9.0. Thank you.

We are a portrait photo studio using Mac OS Sonoma 14.5 and Bridge 2024. All our images are saved on NAS drives after photographing. Then we view and edit in Bridge. Once the editing process is done we move the images into the final folder where they will be stored on the same NAS drive. Prior to updating to Sonoma and Bridge 2024 we had no issues.  Now when dragging and dropping to the new folder we receive an error message: The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “R52_1234.JPG” can’t be read or written.(Error code -36) If we attempt dragging only one image we get the same message...But when we drag it a second time the image will move to the new folder.  But this is very tedious and slow.  Any help to resolve this issue would be very much appreciated!

I have Bridge 14.1.1.274 which I believe is the newest version, and I run Windows 11. Recently, when I try to launch a jpg associated with Photos.exe, the mouse turns to an hourglass and then does nothing...no launch. When I try to launch using Imageglass9.exe, I get an "exception error" (Could not load user settings). Both of these work fine from File Explorer, but not from within Bridge. Until about a month ago, both also worked within Bridge. I have uninstalled Bridge and reinstalled to no avail. I've also run numerous scans but with no success. Below is a snapshot of the file type association preferences. Any help?

Adobe Bridge: 14.1.0.257Windows 11 Home OC Build 22631.3593Just started having issue deleting files.  I click delete from menu or keyboard and a brief flash of a window pops up and disappears (llike the delete window) but then nothing.  I have restarted Bridge and the latpop.  I also noted it is happening in the current beta version of Bridge I have installed. Looks like this has been an issue in the past, is it back??
