When I open bridge on a new computer its all big text and looks as if its in safe mode?
None of the other apps do this. Any idea why? Can't seem to find an answer in the search feature

thanks

    I actually got it. I went into the preferences and adjusted the settings

    there and now it looks like the rest of the programs.

    Thank you

    It was the interface setting that I ended up adjusting.

    Thank you

      Hi Joer,

      That isn't a great user experience as Bridge user interface is showing unexpectedly large, we're sorry to hear about this. Let us help make it right.

      Which version of Bridge are you using?

      Numerous program settings are stored in the Adobe Bridge preferences file, including display, Adobe Photo Downloader, performance, and file-handling options.

      Restoring preferences returns settings to their defaults and can often correct unusual application behavior.

      • Press and hold the Ctrl key (Windows) or the Option key (Mac OS) while starting Adobe Bridge.
      • Select the three options that'll show up: check mark "Reset Preferences", "Purge all local cache files" and "Reset Standard workspaces".

      Reset Preferences: Returns preferences to their factory defaults. Some labels and ratings may be lost. Adobe Bridge creates a preferences file when it starts.

      Purge All Local Cache Files: Purging all the local cache helps when Adobe Bridge is not displaying thumbnails properly. Adobe Bridge re-creates the cache when it starts.

      Reset Standard Workspaces: Returns Adobe predefined workspaces to their factory default configurations.

      Click OK, to restore Bridge preferences.

      Let us know how it goes,

      Thanks,

      Akash

      That did not seem to do anything. I actually just downloaded the creative

      suite to a new computer and bridge is the only one that opens

      this way. It's like its set on a real low resolution or something. Not sure

      how that could be. Was like that from the first time I opened it. Didn't

      even really use it yet.

      Just loaded the apps I want and opened them to test them. Its a small

      screen computer and it's just a little annoying is all. Any other

      suggestions?

      Joe
