Sort files by Date added

Question

Is it possible to sort files by date added, specifically on a NAS? I see Created & Modified but many times my files retain their created or modified date, such as when they are opened from a zip file for example.

Many times I'll add files that are too large to send over internet, so need to put them on an external drive for transport.

Thanks!

Sorry, got sidetracked.

The problem before I even begin to try to answer that is that Bridge was never designed to work with a NAS system. As such, there's no way to know if any solution isn't working because the solution is at fault if the whole structure upon which you are working on is not reliable.

You are not the first person to want to work with a NAS system but right now Adobe doesn't seem to want to spend the time (ergo money) on developing it to work with a NAS system.

Anyhow, all that notwithstanding, if you go to Bridge's Preferences and select Metadata, you can see that there's a long list of items not all of which are checked. You might want to play with those to see if you can find what you're looking for.

Good luck!
