Using the newest version of Bridge and Illustrator, double clicking an Illustrator document (or press Enter) in Bridge 2024 starts Illustrator but does NOT open the document. Even if Illustrator is already running, the AI document is not loaded. I have to drag&drop it manually in the Illustrator window (or open in manually from within Illustrator). Pleas fix this bug in Bridge 2024

I've recently updated to Bridge 2024 and when importing images from card, photo downloader has automatically broken up the contents of an existing folder into ten subfolders. Can someone tellme what is going on here?

I'm using Bridge 14.0.0 - when I select a single photo or multiple photos and attempt to open the images to Camera Raw -  Bridge crashes. This has happened with previous versions and occurs every several weeks (I was able to edit photos in RAW a couple days ago, but now it just crashes).  I've restarted my computer and cleared cache. Am I missing something here that would cause this defect ?

I have a setup of multiple screens, one of them the native screen of my laptop. I can move Photoshop and Bridge independently on different screens, but when I double-click on a photo in Bridge to make basic edits, it opens a non-window (just an overlay without the nromal frame and top bar) always on the native screen, no matter what screen the main windows of Photoshop and Bridge are. I want the interface on my big screens, that's what they are for. I know it's technically Photoshop that is misbehaving like that, but it is only the version of Photoshop opened from Bridge.

In Adobe Bridge, when I try to right-click to open a jpg image with Adobe Camera Raw, the above message is sent, followed by: 'Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature'.If one of you would please explain the meaning of this, and show me how I can fix it, I would be very grateful.jwc

Hola, tengo un listado de 100 fotos en formato texto con el nombre del archivo. Estas fotos están dentro de una carpeta con 1000 fotos. No soy capaz de buscar esas fotos mediante la función buscar. Si pego el nombre de una foto en la función buscar me la encuentra, en el momento que hay 2 nombres o más, aunque los separe por comas no me los encuentra. Soy fotografo de bodas y obtengo una lista de una selección de fotos favoritas (a traves de una web que la genera) y necesitaría poder filtrar ese listado para hacer una copia en otra carpeta y poder mandar a imprimirlas. Esta función la hace Lightroom, pero las fotos exportadas en jpg tienen el nombre de la pareja y las fotos de lightroom tienen el formato del RAW original. Muchas gracias. //////////////////// Hello, I have a list of 100 photos in text format with the name of the file.

I'm wondering if it's possible to export the Bridge workspace I have setup on my laptop. I've used collections to group my files in Bridge on my laptop, but when I open Bridge on my imac it's not synced. It's the same account for both computers - does anyone know if this is possible?  

I want to copy my Camera Raw-settings to other photos in Adobe Bridge but the programme won't let me do it. A warning sign appears saying "Camera Raw-editing is not activated. If you want to edit in Camera Raw you must have a license for a qualified product", even though I have a valid full Adobe-subscription. Every program is updated, including CR. I have a correct file format from a supported camera model. I can even open the .CR2-files in Camera Raw through double clicking on them in Bridge, but I cannot open CR through Bridge's the menu or copy the Cam Raw-settings to other photos? It has worked flawlessly before.  This function saves me so much time, thank you in advance to anyone who can help me out with this.

How can I use batch rename and string substitution in Bridge to find a variable length date at the beginning of the name and replace it with the YYYYMMDD HHMMSS and leave the string after it the same for each image? 

For your information, many scripts created by Paul Riggott are now posted on Github at this address: GitHub - Paul-Riggott/PS-Scripts: Photoshop ScriptsAs many of his scripts had been created as examples or to help others, I'll scour this forum to reconnect the scripts to the posts, as his website is not up anymore.Paul shares many insights and knowledge with this community, I'll try to correct the links to the new location of his scripts in the various discussions.

I would like to know where Bridge File Info is located in Windows 10.  I will have to do a fresh installation of Windows and all programs so I want to be sure that the information which I have in file info is in the images. Is it saved to the image? Thanks for any advice you can provide. 

Hi,We just installed the new version of Bridge (9.1.0.338) and the first thing we noticed is that when editing, if you delete a file, Bridge no longer auto advances to the next image and if you hit an arrow key, it just jumps you back to the beginning. We tested this on two work stations, and the same issue occurred on the second machine after the update. I searched for a preference but couldn't locate anything. For the moment the workaround is to open batches of images in Camera Raw and then edit there but that seems to inefficient, at best.Anyone else see this behavior and/or know how to fix it?Thanks,Brion

Move to just failed to change directory for 17 PNG files (less than 2 MB each). The app froze for minutes without recovery – I had to kill it with Task Manager.Hard to believe that such is at all possible, given superfast NVMe disks (can write several GB per second) and 64 GB RAM. Please join forces to optimize performance. It in this state isn't suitable for professional work.A similar issue was recently reported for Mac. The problem seems to affect all platforms.  [Personal content removed by Moderator.

We often have to apply Metadata from various templates, yet we can't automate the process. It would help us to assign user-created templates via keyboard. Example: The custom shortcut Ctrl+Shift+M could mean "Assign Metadata template Manufacturer-Images" .If you cannot directly target a Template 1, Template 2 etc via ID one might pop up a dropdown to pick from. @nikunj.m  Mods, please leave this staff-ping in place.

The Context Menu items Move To and Copy to in the latest Beta show a highly irritating behaviour: The folder preview (called from Windows system) appears empty. Users could get the impression that content in the target folder got accidentally deleted. Indeed, data inside target folders is just fine, yet the implementation in Bridge is faulty. Steps to reproduce:Create or reuse any testfolder that already holds some files.Pick one or more files and select either Copy to or Move to command from the context menuTarget testfolder (using the browse functionality)Testfolder will appear empty.Please fix soon.

As versões 13 e 14 do bridge estão consumindo toda a internet. Tive de fazer o downgrade para a versão 12.0.4 (que ainda encontra-se disponível na CC). Moro em uma região afastada da cidade e tenho internet à fibra de 100mb, (download 10mb/s). É notável quando estou navegando pela web ou fazendo algum download, abro o bridge (v 13, 14) e a velocidade cai instantaneamente. Não sei se é algum bug do bridge, mas acredito que não deveria consumir tanta internet.   

If you search for files by e.g. a term (contains filename), and then want to move the found files to another folder, the bridge freezes. The problem exists since the Multiwindow Function starts.No Problems with Bridge 2021 or before System: Macbook Pro M1 Max Ventura & Monterey

Hello, I'm completely new to Adobe Bridge and I'm in need of a small help. So I had 200 plus photos (1:1 ratio each) to print. So in the "OUTPUT" section in Adobe Bridge, I have made 12x18-inch pdf (with 4 columns and 6 rows). So, I'll need to cut the pdf after I get it physically printed. My main question that, how do I add custom bleed or crop marks when I export the file so that I'll have a guide to cut it into individual photos? Thank you!

I have been tryintg to upload some files from a memory card to my computer using Adobe Bridge 2024 (Version 14.0.0.102) and am getting a Out of Application Memory message and requiring a force quit of Bridge.  This is a new problem that just started today and I have been using Bridge 2024 regularly for the last few weeks with no issues.   In searching the community I see that there may have been a solution for this in the 2023 version but I see no similar solution for the 2024 version.  I have tried renaming the file in the Bridge Cache Folder and relaunching the app (Bridge 2023 solution) with no success.   I have also tried re-installing the app and the problem persists.  My computer is a MacBook Pro M1 Max with 64 GB of memory.  My MacOS Version is Ventura 13.5.2.  Is there a solution for this problem? 

I would like Bridge to simply preview all file formats when double-clicking on the file, like it does when pressing space-bar. Is this possible?

The attached dialogue came up and i want to ask what exactly does Purge Cashe do?

Seit Update erscheinen die Vorschauen nur bei 3 Ordnern.Beim Ordner Dokumente habe ich seit 3 Tagen nur dieses Icon.Was bedeutet das?

Hi, just installed Adobe Bridge 14 (and Photoshop 2024). (at least the Photoshop has a mac looking interface, where are the Bridge I clearly  windows look) and now when I use Bridge to look for photoshop files in folders, some folders DO NOT show the files names of Photoshop files within some folders. (a few folders with non photoshop files do show file names on non photoshop files in a folder) while I can still see the files, I often add a 'postfix' to a name to mark wick version of a file I am working on. (that I now cant see) so when and where and how will I get my file names back please adobe.?Sandy Barrie.
