There is now a version 24 of Bridge that works OK.

Went back to the 2022 versions and all is fine again. I'll be waiting a while before I go anywhere near the 2023 versions of either Bridge or PS, lets see if they iron out the issues.

same problem. i have uninstalled the old PS but Bridge thinks I haven't, updated prefences, very annoying.

Ok, I installed Bridge 2023, don't like if for a couple of reasons, so uninstalled, but I now can't use any automated PS scripts from the old 2022 Bridge like 'load files into Phootoshop layers. I get the same error script. I've reset Bridge completely, made no issues, really don't want to have to uninstall/reinstall the whole lot, it's a pain. Is there a workaround. I'm guessing it's a registry issue to dow with path names etc. I'll reinstall the older version of PS to see if it makes any difference.

I just had this problem too. Except I was selecting a bunch of images to create a photomerge. In my windows system, it displayed that I had a Bridge 2021 version and 2022. I uninstalled the 2021 version in my system's settings. Adobe CC popped up and asked if I wanted to delete the app from my system. I said yes and it only deleted the 2021 version and kept the 2022 version, without needing to redownload it. After this I was able to select my photos and move them onto photoshop. Hope this helps

Hi Jim,

 

Bridge is on version 12, PS is on version 23

 

There's a couple of things to try, first I'd rebuild Bridge's Prefs:

First, quit Bridge (if open). Then, when launching Bridge, press Command-Option (Mac)/Control-Alt (Win) + Shift to choose “Reset Preferences”, Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache”, and/or Reset Standard Workspaces.” In your case, chose "Reset Preferences."

 

If that doesn't work, I'd uninstall both Bridge and PS, then reinstall first Bridge and then PS in that order.

 

Let us know what happens.

Versions that are now working hand in hand on my computer are.

PhotoShop 23.0

Bridge 13.0.3

After 5 hours of fighting all the versions and testing it this is the combo that worked for me. You can not have more than one version of PhotoShop on your machine at a time. Make sure you only have one version. Once you get the combo that works for you write it down incase you accidently update and you can then go back to what you were using.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your feedback.

Bridge 2023 will work with Photoshop 2023, and Bridge 2024 will work with Photoshop 2024.

 

Could you please suggest if you have uninstalled / reinstalled the PS beta build.. please uninstall and reinstalled the Photoshop build to get this working.

 

Thanks,

Bridge Team
