since the update to v13 (today) i cannot open files to Photoshop (v24) when i use CameraRaw through bridge. Not by 'OPEN' 'OPEN AS OBJECT'' or 'OPEN AS COPY' clicking on eiter of these nothing happens. The only way to open a image in Photoshop through bridge is FILE->OPEN WITH->ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 2023 (DEFAULT)

So not by dubbel clicking on a file or throught the 'OPEN IN CAMERARAW" icon. It wil open in CRaw but i cannot continue to Photoshop

Apple M1 Montery v12.6

Hi, @ERobicheaux, have you tried Resetting Bridge's Preferences?

Quit Bridge (if running). Just before clicking on Bridge in the Dock or double-clicking the application for the Mac, press Command-Option-Shift. For PCs, press Control-Alt-Shift. Then open Bridge BUT KEEP your fingers on those keys until you see a window pop up. From the window, choose “Reset Preferences," "Entire Thumbnail Cache,” and/or "Reset Standard Workspaces.” In your case, choose "Reset Preferences."

I have a similar issue. I think it just started. Mac OS Sequoia 15.3, PS 26.3, Bridge 15.0.2, PS Beta 26.4.....I can no longer double click on an image and have it open in PS. What is maddening is that in Bridge Settings/Applications/ one can chose the application to launch. Tried uninstalling and reinstalled. Yes, it works to drag the image from Bridge to the toolbar where the PS icon is and it will open in PS. That is a work around but not acceptable. One would like a discount off of our mothly fee for programs that do not work correctly. If Adobe wants us to use Bridge as our image browser, it needs to work correctly.

Interesting, this solved the problem. What is interesting is that I rreinstalled Bridge twice, one keeping the Preferences, and the other deleting the Preference and did not write my post here until after I did the second install. It must be an issue the the cache. Thanks, it is a big deal as I like to use Bridge to go through my image files and double click to get a larger look.

In my case the problem is solved with a new laptop and a clean install of Adobe software.

I have a similar problem. I get error trying to open images from Bridge since Adobe Updated CC to PS25.

Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2024\Photoshop.exe'.
Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

This is my error. I tried logging out of CC and rebooting, no change

Problem is still (or again) there. Is this bug recognized/logged by Adobe?

I am on a Macbook Pro with latest versions of everything. Tried an older version of ACR but problem remains.

Did a reinstall of Bridge, ACR and PS and no luck either.

Yes, it is possible to "Open With Adobe Photoshop" from Bridge but that is not desirable in many cases because it is an extra step.

Make sure that you are using the Public Release version of Bridge (14.0.1.137) because the Beta version is older and does not work on Macs running on Sonoma.

Thank you for the answer. I am on Ventura 13.6.1 and use only non-beta versions of Adobe software.

Yesterday I removed all of the Adobe suite with CC cleaner and the problem still presists.

If I open in Lightroom, adjust, then go through the menu above: Photo>open in PS 2023 it opens. I just can't go through ACR.

I am using Windows, but holding Shift key and clicking on a Raw file in Bridge opens it directly in Photoshop.

When I drag multiple images from Bridge into PS it only opens one of the images in Camera Raw. Not good for my workflow AT ALL.

Habe das gleiche Problem (Windows 10 pro): aus der Bridge Camera Raw öffnen, bearbeiten, aber ein Öffnen in PS ist nicht möglich; springt einfach wieder in die Bridge zurück.

What I have found is rather than just doing a Command-r or double-clicking the raw file, drag the raw file onto PS from Bridge. Then it will work properly.

An unfortunate extra step until this is fixed.

o.k., dann mal wieder, wie bei fast allen updates, in Geduld üben. Danke für das Zeigen des Umweges....

I have the exact same issue. Images won't open in PS after I have done my pre-edit in ACR. Have to go back to Bridge and redo it all again, and then they will open the second time around which is super strange.

Cmd R opens a NEF in ACR, and Cmd O or a double-click is opening it in Ps 2023, for me.

It may be that there is a problem with other kinds of RAW files from different cameras?

In that case, the next version of ACR may fix the problem.

just did a thorough test with the following RAW files:

Sony .ARW,

Fuji .RAF,

Canon .CR2

Olympus .ORF

Phase One .IIQ

Hasselblad .3FR

Nikon .NEF

Kodak .DCR

Minolta .MRW

And also some .JPG

None of them opens in Ps through Bridge-> CameraRaw.

When opening any of these files straight into Ps (from the finder or from Ps->FILE->OPEN) it opens up in CameraRaw and then in Ps with no problems.

So in my case the problem only exists in Bridge

I've noticed a similar problem but find that Raw files open from bridge using the "open ion camera raw" button but then: I can open the raw file in Photoshop only if there are no edits in camera raw.
