Adobe Bridge (CS2) not working. Even after new installation

Hello,
The Problem was, that Adobe Bridge (CS2 on Windows XP) suddenly stopped the work. After several days of trying to get this program to run again, i deinstalled and installed Photoshop with all it´s programms.
But Bridge still is not working anymore. I can visit some folders once or twice, but after 2 tries, it stopps and give no reaction.
What is wrong with Photoshop ?
regards

You need to reset Bridge preferences by holding
Ctrl+Alt+Shift while starting the program from the icon. You should get a dialog offering three choices select all of them.
This does not happen with a re-install of the program.
If you don't get the dialog box, keep trying till you do.

  • Photoshop not working properly after new installation

    I have a brand new Dell desktop that runs windows 8. I installed the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection and got a message saying that there were errors during installation and some things might not work properly. I uninstalled and did it a second time. Same message.
    I then spoke with an  Adobe agent that helped me download a program to detect what the errors were. He said they were minor issues and shouldn't affect the programs. No help there.
    I then spent hours today speaking with Dell on the phone and the rep took remote control of the computer and did a diagnostics check on the hardware. He said everything is fine. I asked him if it might be the video card needing an update so he ran an update. Same issues, no change.
    We changed the compatability to windows 7 and still no change.
    I then uninstalled the creative suite and tried installing it from the desktop. Still same problems.
    These are the issues in photoshop:
    1)When using certain tools (transform tool, crop tool) the images goes completely black.
    2) The background switches at random- sometimes checkered, sometimes grey, and sometimes black.
    3) Color saturation is incorrectly represented. It switches whenever it wants. For instance, when I zoom in and out it changes.
    In Adobe Bridge some of the RAW images don't show in the program. Some I just can't open. Others open fine. Those images will open in Photoshop but not in Bridge.
    So I have no idea what to do and this is becoming extremely frustrating. I should add I haven't had any problems with Lightroom and it works fine as far as I can tell.
    What could be causing these issues? Could the install CD be damaged?

    I turned off the GPU in Photoshop's preferences as you suggested and everything seems to work properly now in Photoshop. In Adobe bridge the files are also all showing now and there doesn't seem to be the same issue there either.
    I also tried enabling the GPU and changing it to Basic and it continues to work, but when it is changed to advanced when enabled the problems arise again.
    So it seems as though the problem is with the video card or its driver as you said. I am not 100% sure that the Dell rep updated the driver from AMD but I am pretty sure he did. I did go to the AMD website and ran a program to detect if the driver needs to be updated and it resulted in a message saying that the driver is up to date and current.
    As you said this is just a temporary solution and I want to make sure I have a working GPU system. What do you think the problem is then? How would you suggest I proceed? Should I contact Dell and tell them the problem seems to be with the installed video card?

  • The g, h and backspace on my keyboard are not working even after replacing with a new one.

    The g, h and backspace on my keyboard are not working even after replacing with a new one. I have also updated my BIOS still d same. Please help me ASAP.

    How does a usb keyboard attached externally work?
    You might try a "hard reset" where you remove battery and AC charger, hold down power button 20-30 seconds and then reassemble and turn on. Reset BIOS (F10) to default settings, too.

  • Webcam is not working even after I reinstall the system software

    My webcam is not working even after I reinstall the system software.
    My questions are follows:
    Should I bring it to repair or get a external webcam?
    At approximately how much would be cost for repair?
    Which webcam I should get?
    Thank you very much!
    Tian

    Update, I fixed it although it feels more like a workaround. I had to enable the extension in extension manager. That still left a blank panel, but once I closed and reopened the panel I was prompted to login. Seems that closing and reopening the panel is the fix once it is enabled.

  • All iPad buttons are not working even after resetting it (hard, soft and via iTunes).

    All iPad 2 buttons are not working even after I resetting it. I tried both of the hard and soft reset, and even resetting my iPad via iTunes. 
    The volume buttons work after I tried this method : "hold iPad in landscape mode. Push the home button while rotating it to Portrait mode, release it."

    I have the same issue, nothing I did fixed the problem, I would suggest if you can visit apple store and give us your feedback with them.
    for me I can't go to apple store because I don't have any store near me, I will have to wait for 2 months to travel!

  • Window 10 upgrade. Graphics driver not working even after re-install

    Notebook pavilion DV6 3280.  Just upgraded to Windows 10 and AMD graphics driver not working even after re-install.  What do I do?  Is there another driver not on the HP Website that I should try?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Touchpad does not work even after format - x220t

    Hi there,
    I've had my X220 tablet for about 10 months and it has been great.  For the last month however, the touchpad and touchpoint have become flaky.  When rebooted or coming out of standby, the touchpoint/touchpad often did not work; after resetting a few times, i would work, but then stop working again when the system when into standby mode.
    I thought this was a driver issue, but uninstalling and reinstalling to the newest drivers did nothing.  I have also updated/reset the BIOS.
    I have more recently have not been able to get the touchpad working at all now and relying on just the touchscreen for input is very frustrating. 
    When Windows 8 CP came out this week, I decided to give the computer a fresh format and reinstall Windows --- maybe that would resolve the issue. No luck.  The touchpoint/touchpad did not work even in Windows 8.
    I read around a bit and have tried disabling JUST the touchpad in the BIOS, and amazingly, the touchpoint will work fine when I do that.  When I disable just the touchpoint or leaving both enabled, neither the touchpad or touchpoint will work.
    As far as I can tell from what I have been able to diagnose, the touchpad is damaged and is causing a conflict with the touchpoint when enabled.  I am not sure of this, but it is my belief now.
    Are there solutions out there for me?  I do have 2 months left on my warranty, but I hope to keep mailing my notebook in for support as a last resort.
    thank you,
    steve

    If you are ready to reinstall Windows, try this method:

    If after that your trackpoint/touchpad still don't work, I think one of them (or both) is defective.

  • MacBook Keys not working even after KeyBoard Firmware update

    My friend's sister bought me a MacBook from the US last October. Fortunately, Apple announced the release of Leopard also on the same month and I got a free upgrade to leopard. I installed leopard about 3 months back. My keyboard was working fine when I had Tiger installed. After I installed Leopard, I remember installing a Keyboard firmware update once through the Software Update.
    About two three weeks back, my MacBook started acting wierd. Some keys were not working (mostly 't', 'q', left shift, left command, zero which is not working even now. I couldn't close the last bracket because the key is not working. I am a php programmer and I can't think of living without the closing bracket and zero keys . But most of the keys works on and off.
    After seeing on several sites that it is a problem with firmware, I once again downloaded the firware update, but couldn't install it since the installation wizard says that my system doesn't need it.
    Can someone plz tell me what to do now? Will reinstalling help?
    Thanks in advance.

    The problem persists everytime I restart my system or wake it up from sleep. But each time different keys have problem. I am now downloading update 10.5.4. Can someone plz help me?

  • Accidentally deleted x protect meta.plist and plug in not working even after downloading latest

    Hi all
    Need some help here. It started off like this - after upgrading to mavericks, i had a problem viewing some java stuff. Googled and read somewhere to delete the x protect meta.plist and thus, did so. After doing that, my youtube videos etc all couldnt work. So googled again and did whatever the rest suggested - download latest version of Java, uninstall java and reinstall again, install other versions of java etc etc. all didnt worked.
    Someone just pointed out that I had deleted a very critical security file (x protect meta.plist) and might have more problems that I thought on my hand.
    Im not very technical or IT saavy, so please kindly advise. Most of the problems surfaced after deleting that file. And right now, plug in for videos are still not working even though I have attempted various 'solutions' suggested in this forum (the not too technical ones) and java is still cranky. Pls advise. thanks!

    Anyone able to help?
    1) How did u solve the missing/out of date plugin?
    - Have tried installing numberous times the latest version - doesnt work
    - Tried uninstalling and then reinstalled earlier versions of java - doesnt work too
    read somewhere to delete the xprotect meta plist - realised much later that piece of advice was for snow leopard OS and thus, did not work too. A forummer told me today this file is a critical security file and i should not have deleted it. WHat can I do now?
    current situation:
    still cant play youtube videos and other videos.
    java on some sites still cant work

  • Lightroom is still not working even after spending several hours on the phone w/ adobe. Suggestions?

    At first, the issue was that we had to type the serial number in every time we used Lightroom. Now, we cannot even get Lightroom to turn on even after typing in our serial number. All we want to do is edit our pictures. How do we get Lightroom to work. I've called adobe a few times and literally spent hours on the phone with them trying different things to get it to work. Still no Lightroom. Any suggestions?

    Which version of Lightroom? Which operating system?
