I am having the same issue with Bridge.

Version: 15.0.0.397.

Bought a new card reader: Xcellon CFexpress Type B and UHS-II SD Card Reader

Bought a new card: Lexar 256GB Professional CFexpress Type B Card DIAMOND Series      

Write Speed
Maximum: 1700 MB/s
Sustained: 1600 MB/s
Minimum: 400 MB/s

 

Operating system is: Windows 11 Home (version: 23H2 / OS build: 22631.4931)

 

I can see the files on the card vis file explorer.

I can open the files in Photoshop.

 

What gives?

 

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling Bridge.

This is a system limitation, because of how CF Express cards are handled by the OS. Lightroom has the same problem. Just copy the files with the Finder/Windows Explorer instead.

That's not quite right. Lightroom works perfectly with CF Express cards.

Hey Martin, we're sorry for the trouble. 

 

We need more details to help you. What version of Bridge and operating system are you working on? Have you allowed Full Disk access to Bridge?

 

If not, follow the below steps to Allow Full Disk Access for Adobe Bride: 

Go to your System Preferences and select Security and Privacy. Now click on the Privacy setting. Now click on the lock on the bottom left and provide your Administrator code. Now select the Full Disk Access option and click on the "+" symbol.

 

Let us know how it goes. 

Thanks, 

Shivani

Hi Shivani, I'm using the latest version of Bridge.
The operating system is Win11 in the latest version.

I use Lexar RW 520 as CF Express Reader.
The cards are also from Lexar.

Best regards
Martin

A small addendum

Bridge can recognize SD cards that are used in the reader.
Importing images is no problem here
