Hello! It would be nice to have a migration script in Bridge too...
In the past, there were folders you could copy, but given the database changes, I'm not sure, I need to check first with the team.
On a Mac, it is in the collections folders in ~Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/Bridge CS5/Collections/
PC(XP): C:Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Bridge CS5\collections
VIsta/7: user/app data/roaming/Adobe/Bridge CS5/Collections
Hope this helps

When upgrading no files are copied from the previous version.  So you will have to find them and copy them over.  Locations are in post above.

  • Bridge cs6 doesn't recognize my cs5.5 .indd files?

    I just upgraded from CS 5.5 to CS 6. When I go into Bridge and double click an old CS5.5 .indd file it tries to open in MS Word. (I find this very strange) If I right click the file and click "open with" the only option it gives me is MS Word. I don't even get that "try another program" button. When i go into InDesign and click file/open the file opens fine. The problem is that Bridge is much faster and I really want to use it. I checked with a coworker that upgraded the same time I did and she is having the same issue only she saves her files to her desktop and can no longer double click to open. Also when she does an "open with" she has multple options but none of them are InDesign. So with that said, I don't think this is a Bridge issue but I wasn't sure where else to post it. Thanks for any help you can give.

    Maybe also try the InDesign forum for this.
    When you look in to Bridge preferences you have the section 'File Type Associations' and inhere you can select the default application to open the files in. Inhere should be a list of all installed versions of ID visible and you can select one as the default.
    Bridge is version specific and it might expect ID CS6 for bridge CS6 but usually it auto selects the correct version upon install. Can you check if the ID version you need is still in the File Type Associations?
    And since your colleague has the same problem, are you working on a server environment?

  • Bridge CS6 for Mac keeps freezing!!

    I find that Bridge CS6 keeps freezing and the only way to fix it is to relaunch it or close the window you're working in. It doesn't seem to affect all windows but only the current window.
    Any advice would be great!

    Any advice would be great!
    First go to the triangle top right next to workspace names and choose reset workspace.
    If still problems try a reset preferences holding down option key while restarting Bridge and choose reset preferences. If this does not help then please provide more detail about exact versions of Bridge, MacOsX, computer and hardware details (RAM, free disc space etc.)

  • How to Replace All the Bridge CS6 Stock Keywords With Bridge CS5 Keywords

    I have CS6 working in a different computer than the one that houses CS5. Bridge CS6 can read CS5 keywords when it opens an "old" photo but it has none of its own (besides the stock ones that came with the program). How can I replace all the stock CS6 keywords with the keywords from CS5?

    Have you tried the Import/Export options from the tiny menu at the top-right of the Keywords panel?

  • Bridge CS6 doesn't allow access to many of my folders on iMac

    iMac with OS X 10.8.2 and Photoshop & Bridge CS6 and Lightroom 4.
    When try and access photos via Bridge most of my folders have a little red circle with a minus inside, denying me access to the folders.
    However, if I use mini Bridge in PS I can access all of my folders.

  • Uninstalling Adobe Bridge CS6 after installing Adobe Bridge CC

    I got all of my Adobe Applications on my MacBook Air through the new Adobe Cloud service. At that time, all of the applications were Adobe CS6. When I saw that Adobe Bridge CC was available, I downloaded it immediately. I had been having problems with Adobe Bridge CS6 working with my Adobe Photoshop CS6. After installing Adobe Bridge CC, I did not find the uninstaller application for Adobe Bridge CS6. I found two copies of the uninstaller for Adobe Bridge CC. Where can I get a copy of the uninstaller for Adobe Bridge CS6 for Mac?

    Vizzpat there is no separate uninstaller for Adobe Bridge CS6.  Adobe Bridge CS6 is installed by several applications.  When those applications have all been removed then Bridge CS6 will be removed as well.
    In general you can locate the uninstallers for Mac OS in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  You can also find additional information regarding installing and removing applications at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 doesn't keep my workspace settings

    I've changed my Expert Mode to Custom Workspace and I set up all my panels as I like them.  This remains the same every time I open and close Photoshop Elements until I reboot my computer.  I am using Windows 7.  It seems that my new settings file is somehow being reset even though I haven't done this myself.  Note that I also have PSE 10 on my computer but haven't used it recently.
    Is there somewhere that I should specify that the workspace must be saved?  I have not had this problem with previous versions of PSE.

    Hi,
    After talking to 3 different Canon techs who didn't know anything about
    this and told me it was Adobe's fault, a 4th Canon tech e-mailed me a list
    of the Elements software that is "compatible" with the Canon Pro-10
    printer. The list stops at Elements 12! In other words, Canon has not
    written the software for their plug-in to work with Elements 13 yet. I
    personally am stunned by this. Considering how popular Adobe Elements is,
    you'd think Canon would be up-to-date on having their new printer's plug-in
    work with Elements 13, which has been out there for some time.
    Not only that, Canon's more expensive printer, the Canon PRO-100, also has
    the same problem. My friend just bought one and told me the plug-in doesn't
    work with Elements 13.
    I have figured out a solution, if it will be of help. I had just
    uninstalled Adobe Elements 12 and when I saw that Canon's plug-in worked
    with Elements 12, I quickly reinstalled it. Sure enough, when I clicked on
    AUTOMATION TOOLS there was the Canon plug-in, and when I clicked on it, the
    Canon print screen opened. So I decided I would do my photo editing in
    Elements 13, and when ready to print I would open the photo in Elements 12
    and print it there. Hope that helps.

  • Import or transfere Settings, Collections etc to new CS5 Install

    I have installed Photoshop CS5 on a new Computer.   I have CS5 on my old computer.
    How do I import or transfere  all the settings, Bridge collections and all other personalizations for all components of CS5 to my new installation?

    Hello!
    Yes, my link was for other users that might find your thread and are migrating from CS4 to 5 on the same computer.
    I'm wondering if the script could not be adapted for your case, to put them all on the desktop to move them to another machine.
    I will try to contact whoever made that wonderful script.
    To find where your presets are saved: see this document: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/828/cpsid_82893.html
    It says: for XP
    Saved presets
    [User defined]
    Documents and Settings/[Username]/Application Data/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Presets/[feature name]
    for vista/7
    Saved Presets
    [User defined]
    Users/[Username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Presets/[feature name]
    The important part is SAVED presets:
    It is not because you created a custom brush, and default gradient, etc. and that it is showing in your brush/gradients/... panels that it is saved on the machine. You need to use the preset manager, and make sure that all your custom created presets are saved in a new set. Just for this presets migration, I  would recommend to do it on your desktop so that you will be able to save the files easily to a CD/Thumb drive
    Ditto for actions, patterns, etc.
    Here is a document about the presets manager http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-74b0a.h tml
    We learn there that those folders are hidden by default on the Windows platform. Follow the steps to make them visible
    (to find those documents, I went to the online Photoshop help, and performed this search: http://community.adobe.com/help/search.html?q=location%20presets&hl=en_US&lr=en_US&l=photo shop_product_adobelr
    I will format and add this information for the FAQ, as it is not the first time that I see questions about moving/backing up presets.

  • HELP - computer doesn't keep icons in list view, etc from one day to next

    Every day when I turn on my MAC (at work), the settings from the previous day are gone. I prefer my files/folders to be in "list" view, but they are always in large icon view and scattered all over the window. Each day I have to change every folder I open to list view manually. How to I get my computer to remember my settings so that I don't have to change it each day? our "expert" computer guy here at work has no clue, just saying it should automatically remember it, but it won't. Other areas where the same type of thing is occuring: I use InDesign everyday and always want my documents in inches. However, it usually defaults back to picas so when i open a new doc each day, i have to go in and change the settings back to inches. Also, any folders I click on open up a window so large it runs from the top to off the bottom of my screen. i have to go to to Window>Zoom Window so it gets back on the screen where I can size it down. All these things, although minor, are just such a hassle to have to do every single day. any advice is very welcome!! I am by no means advanced on a MAC, so please break things down for me as best you can.

    First: Send Apple a Feedback. This has been an issue since the first days of X and is still not corrected in Tiger, from the posts I see there. Apple needs to know it matters to you. Click on "Discussions" at the top of this page and then look at the bottom left of the list of forums that comes up
    Second: You did send that Feedback, didn't you. In the same corner is the link to the Users' Tips Library. In it—you'll have to do a search—is the tip from Scott Radloff "Making Finder Views Persistant" [title may not be exact] that you want.
    Briefly, Apple's overlay of X onto UNIX broke down here. The 'ownership' of the problem windows belongs to one of those greyed out users like "eppp" and "mysql" that you see under your shortname when you look at Details in a Get Info… window on a file. UNIX needs them, so you need them, but you don't need to defer to their idea of what a perfect window looks like. Not if you're willing to become "root" the superuser and tell them how-to. That's Scott's tip, and do be warned: Rootness is all-powerful, and you must use those powers only for good and immediately renounce them when your task is done.
    Now, what were you going to do first? Good luck.

  • I have just bought a mini ipad for my daughter set it up in my apple id so she could keep all her apps games etc, how do i set up a seperate account for her ipad and also keep my own id @

    I have just bought a mini ipad for my daughter and used my apple id to set it up for her so she can keep all her apps and downloads of my ipad that she was using, i was wondering how do i give her, her own apple id so that she can keep all her apps and then i can two seperate accounts ?

    You cannot transfer the purchases to another account. What she has purchased with your account will always be tied to your ID. That's the way that it works. You can have her create her own Apple ID to use with Cloud account, FaceTime and Messages.
    But if you create a new ID for her, she will have to flip flop between the two Apple ID's in order to update apps, and if she wants to make purchases with her own ID, you also have to consider the fact that she may run the risk of locking herself out of her own ID by downloading a past purchase using your ID, after she starts buying with her own ID.

  • TreeView doesn't display in Bridge CS6 but it does in ESTK

    running Bridge CS6 on Windows 7. 
    Although I tried a lot of existing .jsx scripts first, I have narrowed down my test case to this code typed into the ESTK with targets of ExtendScript Toolkit CS6, Bridge CS5.1 (4.1), Bridge CS6 (5.032), and Bridge CS6 (64 bit) (5.064).
    var w = new Window('dialog');
    var tv = w.add('treeview',undefined);
    tv.add('node','root');
    w.show();
    It works properly with ESTK and CS5.1 targets. 
    On both CS6 targets, the window opens but the treeview widget is blank.  This is the same behavior I saw running SnpXMLTreeView.jsx and the scriptui-2.0.pdf examples.
    On more complex (existing) scripts, it will crash or lockup Bridge CS6.
    A search around the forums and the web shows that I am not the only one having this problem.

    Yes there are a lot of problems with CS6 Bridge Scripting but the Bridge team have still not acknowledged them...
    As an example...

  • Not able to move files to new folders in Bridge CS6

    Hello all.  I am trying to move files around through bridge CS6 but I keep getting :
    " The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient permissions".  How do I fix this annoyance? This is really screwing with my work flow and forcing me not to bother using Bridge.
    Thanks in advance.

    This is really an OS problem as it sets permission levels for operations.   What OS?
    If using Win OS and an external drive, you can start Bridge by right clicking and choosing "run as administrator".

  • Bridge CS6 insist to open Camera raw files via Photoshop CS6 instead of CC

    Hi
    I´ve trying to start using Photoshop CC instead of CS6. The problem is that my Bridge CS6 is opening Camera RAWs to Photoshop CS6 as a default instead of CC. I`ve changed Finder defaults and as well as Bridges own File type assosiations to use Photoshop CC as a default, but still it isnt working. I wouldnt want to delete Photoshop CS6 completely.
    Any help, anyone?

    Which version mac os x are you using?
    If it's mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard, then post back before installing bridge cc.
    I believe you need to install bridge cc so your camera raw files will open from the camera raw dialog in bridge cc to photoshop cc.
    Also of note is the camera raw version for bridge cs6 doesn't have any of the new features that the bridge cc version of camera raw has.
    If you open the the Creative Cloud Desktop.app, then you should see Bridge CC available for install.
