Questions

I've been using Bridge to sort/tweak/rename timelapse images for many years and over the past year or so I've increasingly run into issues with metadata and file renaming. One example is in file renaming: if I select, say, 1000 images and rename them with a sequence number, Bridge almost always fails to rename a few.  It skips the number that should be assigned to them, so it knows they're there, but those few files don't get renamed.  You can tell when this happens because after you select and rename 1000 files you are left with, say, 996 selected.  The four unselected images did not have their filenames changed.  So I select them all again, rename them all again, and usually after repeating this process two or three times all the files are correctly renamed. Another issue I have is that Bridge incorrectly identifies the date created for a few files and writes that into the XMP data.  These are timelapse sequences so it's easy to tell when that happe

Hi all I'm using Bridge to organize and categorize my photos. I have noticed that by giving 1 star or putting a color label, the photo modifies the date of modification and creation. This is a problem for me because I use backup tools and I don't want it to copy all the photos again . Is there an option that does not modify these dates? I understand that this happens because these parameters are saved in the photo itself and not in a hidden file in the same folder path.  I have found information about labels, but not about the date change after la el photo thank you

Can Adobe Bridge (on iMac19,1; 8-Core Intel Core i9 ; 3.6 GHz) work over a SMB server connection, or must it remain on AFP?  Please help.

Ho provato a spostare 400 file raw dalla scheda a una crtella dell'HD esterno. Bridge si è bloccato e allora ho annullato l'azione. Ma ora non va la funzione SPOSTA FILE, non riesce a spostare neanche un singolo file. Mi potete suggerire una soluzione?

Have a problem with rotating of images. The options for rotating images is not working in bridge right now.Also my vertical images (portraits) are being showed only in horizontal previews.Is there anything i can do about this, maybe somewhere in settings or something?

I can't find the option for this in Bridge and I didn't see any information on this online. How do I go about uploading an image for any file? For example, I want to add a thumbnail preview for 3D models so I can see what they actually are. 

I have a collection of  the last four years of big photographs -- about 600 photos. I've also created about 30 collections with particular subject matter. There are many photographs in more than two collections. Is there any way to look at one particular photograph in Bridge, and find what collections it is in?

Hi, how do I view the size of my library in Bridge? I have a library of family photos and documents and I'd like to be able to see how large it is in total.

Hi,  all my files in a particular folder are not visible in bridge. They are a mixture of jpegs tiffs and psd's. I can see some of the tiffs but not the psd's. They are all present in the macbook finder folder. Ive not had this issue before and cannot work out what has changed. The files are present but at the bottom left of the window it says 43 hidden, indicating the missing thumbnails. I have checked 'show hidden files' but that hasnt helped. Any help would be great - thank you  

When previewing thumbnails (pressing the space bar), the image now flickers—very annoying (the Cap key is not locked). Also, rotating a photo, I hit the key and nothing, then hit it again, and it turns twice, and I have to hit the previous key to correct it the way it should have been in the first command. Also, trying to figure out how to post something is confusing—lucky I copied my post first because it disappeared from the community several times.

Can someone tell me whats going on with Adobe bridge now? Have they fire all the good programmers and hire a bunch of kids???The program are so full in bugs, and everytime there are a new update, new useless things come and other functions i use daily in my workflow dissapear. Its so frustrating...When you ask the support, they blame my computer or setup.IF there was another program i could use, i will stop using Adobe....I actually pay for this, but who cares.I see other people here struggle with same problems as i do. And its so clearly that there has been a big change in the stab. They have moved from a serious platform to a kindergarden for young hiptsters who want to show off i feel...

Can I create a video edit reeel in Adobe portfolio using Bridge as a way to import my videos to play on my new website showcasing my editing work as video? Does Adobe Protfolio support playing videos in real time? 

I have just started shooting RAW files with the mode set to monochrome I have checked the camera settings option in Bridge/Camera Raw preferences. This works fione for my D500 but for the Z8 it starts off in mono as on the back of the camera, but then sets to colour (ie applies Adobe Defauilt. I have checked and ensured the switch is set and when I purge the cache it temporarily reverts to mono before reverting to adobe default. Having done some more tests, it works for the Z8 on Monochrome (MC) and Dramatic (06) modes but not FM (Flat Monochrome), DM (Deep Monochrome) or my customs one C01 which is MC with 2 stops extra contrast). I am now stuck. If I set it to another preset it works well so I think it is what is being writton to the Z8 metadata. Is there a way of checking that the metadata created by Z8 is correct? Thank you in advance. It also works for my Z6 and my sony rx100. So I think it must be something with the Z8 and Adobe. My z8

Hi,I apologize if this is more specific to a Camera Raw, but I am in desperate need for a solution as I need to organize a photoshoot where 3000 photos in .cr3 raw format were taken and all the raw files show serious vignetting in Adobe Bridge but not in Mac Finder.  The jpegs do not show any vignetting as expected. I plan to organize using the raw files only and plan to export the selects as jpegs for the client and hoped a proper lens profile exists for this lens in Camera Raw although I do not see it, only an older, F4 version of this lens (this lens is one of the newer lenses offered by Canon and was backordered until recently). My clients usually sit in with me to view to the Raw files in Bridge. I'd like to know if an update to Bridge or Raw will fix this and the easiest solution for this will be to not display this vignetting in Adobe Bridge for these files. I cannot even upload one of these raw files as the error message displays "The attachment's 097a4074.cr3 content type

Hello, when I want to copy or move a picture from one folder to another, the following message apperas: "an error has occurred during the move operation. Some files may not have been processed". I check all the photos to make sure they are properly saved, but nothing does it. Can anyone help with this issue please? Thank you!

As the subject says, if I try to rate WAV files, the rating I am clicking does nothing.  Rating mp3's works fine.

Adobe - why are you having people use a file type that your own programs cannot preview?Not looking for a solution other than the Adobe Bridge dev team rolling out an update that addresses this.  I've read all the posts prevously made about PSDTs. Fix it or get rid of it.  

In Lightroom Classic, you can assign color labels to folders. In the folder list, these colors display as colored rectangles on the right of the folder name.In Bridge I have assigned color labels to a number of my folders. However, there is no colored rectangles appearing next to those folder names in the folder list. Is there a setting that I need to change in order for the color to visible in the folder list?Thanks in advance for your replies.

Hello,How can I export and then import a workspace in adobe bridge. I have the workspace created now I just need to export another computer. Thanks 

I have reported this bug to Adobe multiple times, but don't expect much to come of it.  For the past few months, Bridge has become very slow on our Mac Studio M1 workstations.  This wasn't the case prior the last update.  Does anyone know the reason?  Simple tasks like sorting through thumbnails have a significant delay associated with it. We have top-spec M1 Mac Studio workstations that are barely a year old, all running Sonoma.  This is really ruining our workflow efficiency.  Adobe if you're listening, kindly look into this matter.  Thank you.

Bridge 2024 crashes everytime and gives the message :"FallDownGoBoom64 has encountered a problem and needs to close"on a iMac with OS Ventura 13.6.5.PS, LrC and AI still work.I don't find an answer what "FallDownGoBoom64" is and how to repair it.I already sent 10 times the crash report to Adobe but no answer.

I really miss the Auotmate and Script in Bridge. I wonder who got the bright idea to remove it and put it in Photoshop. That person didn´t think it through. I hope they bring it back to Bridge again, by all means, have it in Photoshop also. When I work with a big batch of pictures where some use clipping masks and others don´t you get much better visual and sorting capabilities within a folder Bridge when doing tasks. Now it is so awkward and visually worse. You go to Photoshop to execute the task, and then go back to Bridge, back and forth back and forth, make no sense.

How do I add more than one 'open with' option to files on Adobe Bridge, for example I want to be able to open a tif file in both illustrator and photoshop? 

My Bridge keeps crashing, it is totally unuseable. Any advive? I have the latest version and a great laptop
