The title says it all: Unzip should only extract and refresh the display. Opening a new window is not helpful, as this forces a context change / potential disorientation. Please let Bridge extract zips right in context like every other tool.

We recently purchased a Synology RS815+ NAS for use by our Creative team running Mac OS X.  We set up indexing on the NAS and the OS X clients are able to search for and find files on the NAS with no problems.With Bridge, however, it's a different story.  Bridge doesn't bring up any search results unless you first use Bridge to go into the directory containing the file you are searching for.  If you reboot the Mac it resets everything so that it again brings up no search results, even for files it found before the reboot, until you again manually browse the parent folder in Bridge.  Does anybody know how to successfully search a NAS drive using Bridge?Many thanks,Nick

it would be great to implement some adobe bridge features like the rating- and labeling-system into frame.io. if i could upload my pictures from adobe bridge directly into frame.io including my ratings/labels, where other colaborators could see in frame.io my ratings and have the same ability to filter photos by ratings and even apply their own ratings, would be just great.

Can adobe bridge be used offline? I tried to install it but it wanted me to log in. I'm a very private person and the type of photos I want to use in bridge aren't the kind I want my name on.

Explanation on what is wrong: No matter what I do, Bridge seems to generate lower quality thumbnails when it works on them. When bridge has a chance to cache a thumbnail, it will always cache an extremely low quality grainy thumbnail that is nearly unreadable. When I prevent it from caching them, they can look ok for a little bit, but inevitably (when I click on them or when it decides to generate thumnbails for a folder), it will cache and extremely bad looking thumbnail. I am attaching 2 example files, one of them is the thumbnail before it processes it, and the worse looking grainy one is after the file has been clicked on. This just cannot be how bridge is intended to process thumbnails, they look incredibly bad. Note: This is also happening in the preview window if it is set to certain settings and reduced to a lower viewport size. How I can reproduce it: I use the zoom hotkey on the folder window and it will reload all of the thumbnails into a much more v

It seems since today's update, the sort order is not sticking when I do a manual sort.It may stick for a while, but then will unstick.The version is 13.0.0.562, Windows 11.

When in Filmstrip view, there is a pane that shows thumbnails of every file and photo in the current folder. There is a scrollbar at the bottom of this pane. Whenever I delete any file, the scrollbar automatically jumps all the way back to the begining (left). How can I make it stop doing this? I need the scrollbar to remain where it was. Since I have to scroll, often a long ways, and then find and recognize the place where I just was, this feature makes it nearly impossible to cull photos using Bridge for any folder with more than a few files in it.

Until yesterday I never had an issue copying or moving files and folders from one location to another in Bridge on a Windows 10 PC.  Starting yesterday, and continuing today, I try to copy or move files and the small screen displays the box "Moving (or copying) Files estimated remaining time" and remains blank. Nothing moves.  Nothing changes.  I've cleared the cache, increased the cache, rebooted the computer, and every now and then it works, but mostly doesn't.  I do not have this problem on my Macbook.  I do not recall any updates in the past couple of days.  This is a critical blow to workflow and I deal with 1000's of images . . .

I'd like to start by saying that I love Adobe Bridge. But unfortunately, like Apple, every “upgrade” seems to come with numerous headaches. I still can’t believe Adobe would get rid of the ability to open multiple windows in BR 2023. And with the new BR 2024, users can no longer adjust the interface uniformly (it’s just black, dark, and white). Also in BR 2024, when multiple windows are open, and I click on one, all the BR windows come to the front. In BR 2021, I can have numerous windows open, and when I click on one, just that one window comes up as active. So an older version of Bridge has more functionality than the two newest versions. This is why I fear updates.

Cet outil pour redresser les verticales ou horizontales a disparu de la liste des outils de modification il n'y a plus que l'outil "optique" est ce normal??Cordialement

I only need to input a description to work with Indesign captions, keywords (tags), and perhaps a headline. I started under IPTC (IIM, Legacy), and it seems to work, but there are so many options. What are the differences? I found an article in Adobe but it did not include the Attributes section. When I select "Attributes" to show under preferences it does not. I did not take any of these photos. I am organizing them for a client and uploading them into Forever.  

I've been a loyal Adobe user for decades and love most of their products. I am writing this to ask a simple question. Why can't a simple fix be written so that we can change the default setting for viewing and sorting in Bridge? Years ago it was possible to set our preference and everytime It opened or reopened it remained set to our custom preference. I understand you can "manually" sort or set a "temporary" sorting preference to your liking, BUT... I have thousands of files and folders that would be too time consuming to go manual at this point, and the temporary fix doesn't even stay applied every time the window is minimized. Tech support doesn't have an answer (other than "going manual"). I'm a freelance designer and my breadth of work is just not photo image work, but depending on a particular project the sorting formula can change. At the very least I'd like to keep my preference set as long as I am working and the computer's on. Since it changed to the current default

I've just installed this new released version on MacOS and an old bug appered back again!When I save a new .psd file from a CR2 one, the photoshop file does not appear in the content of the panel. This was a pretty annoying bug of some previous versions that was fixed after a while and now here it is again! I use Bridge to share photos with my clients, but with this problem I have to spend much more time as I cannot use my saved export rules on iCloud. I wonder how the development teams performs "no regression tests"...Thanks a lot

Hello!First of all, I am fairly familiar with Bridge BUT I do not use collections very often. I have a project with a client now, where I have to do a lot of culling and potentially identifying duplicates. I have around 4000 files in total (not all of them are images). The reason I have been asked is the client is taking over a business and their image assets are a mess. Lots of different folders, most of them empty, lots of them hosting images that aren't usable dating decades ago etc...I waded through most of the different folders and assigned all the files I could find in different collections. My aim there was to not disrupt the somewhat crazy hierarchical system and only work on usable images. Now I have around 4200 images in those folders and only have say 3000 in the collections. so there's 1200 missing, and I'm more or less certain that I put all of them in one of the collections.   So basically, I would like to know if there is a way to locate all the files that aren't in

Hello, I would like to draw attention to the slow loading of the preview when quickly shuffling through the thumbnails. This is happening in the new version of Adobe Bridge 14.0.1It's really annoying to have to wait for the preview to load. My thumbnails are always cached. In version 14 this was fine. I have tested it. Thank you.

Hi! I had batch renamed a handful of images with text and sequence number, but it appears that the file type has changed to the sequence number ? The file types have become 01, 02, 03, etc. I have no idea what has happened but they are for an upcoming assignment so I would appreciate any insight at all 😞 

I wanted to finish the mapping in sp and send it directly to unity via the bridge plugin instead of manually exporting it to a folder and then manually importing it into unity. At present, I have not found a good solution, I want to develop this bridge plug-in by myself, but I do not know where to start, please help me thank you

Drag and dropping a folder to Br (v2024) dock icon in macOS 14 no longer opens that folder. This is super inconvinient. It used to work in Br v2023.

Anybody have any advice about how to deal with corrupted thumbnails in Adobe Bridge? The images open fine, but the thumbnail display is a mess.AND, though the images look fine, a couple of times when I moved them from PS to imagR to RD Works to laser cut, the laser starting cutting the messed up thumbnail version, even though on the screen the image looked fine.

This program has become more complicated and less useable. There are 2 big problems with it that will prevent me from adopting the new verion. Previous versions, i was able to add a shortcut in the system app preferences that would allow placing files in indesign with a shortcut function key of my choice. This no longer works in AB2024. Place in InDesign is not available in the new shortcuts window in this version. The folders that contain recent indesign, photoshop and illustrator files can no longer be added to the favorites panel. I am staying with AB2022 until these problems are addressed. Below are screenshots of the system application shortcuts menu and bridge 2022 shoing recent file folders. Gary, if you're reading this, humble me and tell me i am wrong. Ken?  

Bridge beta 14.0.0.57 - Info in Metadata panel truncated with space wasted. There are no scrollbars or tooltips or any way to show this info. 

 Hello! I get the below error message when i start Adobe Bridge. And the program crashes.Does anyone get this message, and has resolved the issue. Please help. 

Hi, I did some reproductions of 35mm slides in CR2 format. Some of the slides were flipped so I used Camera Raw to flip them back. In the Bridge Film Strip and Preview they are fine, but when I view them in Slide Show, they are in the old orientation. Very strange: I look at one file in Bridge, and when I hit Ctrl+L for Slide Show, it is the other way around..... I cleared all the cache I could get my fingers on, but it still displays the wrong way around in Slide Show.Any ideas?

Since the latest macOS Sonoma update, my Adobe Bridge Application crashes upon startup, giving me this error: I have uninstalled, deleting all preferences and cache multiple times, but nothing works to clear this error.
