Hello, Yes, that's what Bridge is used for.

Here is an example:

Which issue are you facing?

I understand that is what Bridge is for but in this particular case, the pencils are missing and the option to add my metadata template or edit any metadata are grayed out. It is available with all other files. But not the PSD files.

Sounds like an issue in your PSD file/s.

Does updating in file>file info lead to a different result or different messages?

What about using a metadata template?

Can you confirm that other PSD or PSB files accept metadata updates?

When resaving as TIFF, then PSD, does the file accept metadata? Don’t add metadata to the TIFF, this is just an intermediate troubleshooting step to see if it cleans the source fille.

Edit: for some this can turn into a religious debate almost as bad as Mac vs. Win. If you search various Adobe and other forums there is a lot of opinion and info.

TIFF vs PSD

psd or tiff

Once I save it as a tif I see the metadata that was added in LR. From then on the copyright metadata appears.
