Label shortcuts no longer work.

As of today, the shortcuts Bridge for labelling (either numerical or cmd-x) don't seem to work. I have both Bridge (beta) and Bridge installed and the shortcuts don't seem to work with either. Even when I manually add a label it won't show it. 

 

Help!

Ah, right. I wondered if that was the case but it didn't seem likely as it works in other Adobe apps. Hopefully there will be an update soon. I'll report to Apple too. 

Thank you.

Do you maybe have an external service, such as Dropbox watching your folders? We have this setup and Bridge struggles, particularly with Label-assignment. Once I pause Dropbox syncing, Labels work again, also via Hotkeys. I see similar issues when assigning keywords, but labels are worse.

I always wanted to script this. If Bridge has focus and Command X gets run (hotkeys get pressed), pause Dropbox for an hour and show a toast message. If anyone knows how to do this on Windows (Autohotkey, possibly?) I'd be happy to learn.

Obviously, it would be far better when Adobe would resolve this problem (automatically retry failed assignments).

Sorry, Mac OS 15 and latest Bridge updates installed. This is both labels and ratings. The shortcuts are fine in Camera Raw and save perfectly. I suspect the labels/ratings are there but are not showing as the Edit menu says "Undo rating" after I hit the shortcut.
