Bridge not assigning keywords to .ai files

[SiD_SiN]

My problem is this, I converted a couple ov Vectors to .ai to assign keywords to it. But Bridge keeps telling me that it can't write Metadata to the files.

Can anyone please help with this?

I've got all the updates for Bridge and I've tried clearing the Cache. Still no luck

How did you convert to *.ai file format and how are you adding the key words? script in both cases?

One thing that I've noticed is common in Bridge (I'm on CS6 at this point - same deal) is that files which should accept key words often do not. My workaround has been to right click the offending file and select Purge Cache for Selection. This can be done with multiple files. In most cases, once this is done, the offending file will accept keywords and Metadata changes.
