Bridge V 10.1 - Having problems with changing or adding metadata to photo files.

[joep333pas]

Bridge will not let me change, add or delete metadata with this latest version 10.1 that I updated today. I was always able to modify metadata using the metadata tab, but with this new version the program freezes. Any idea as to what to do?

Try resetting Bridge's preferences:

When launching Bridge, Command-Option (Mac)/Control-Alt (Win) + Shift to choose “Reset Preferences”, Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache”, and/or Reset Standard Workspaces”.

Let us know if this works.

Thank you gary_sc,

Clearing the thumbnail cache worked. I appreciate your prompt reply.

I have this same problem adding any metadata to non-raw files. I tried resetting everything, but it still gives me an error message if I try to add keywords or description to a jpeg or tif.
