Bridge CS6 download function freezes.

What is causing the Bridge download function in my CS 6 to freeze up? Bridge in my CS 5 continues to work properly. How to resolve?

No experience with network nor Windows but Bridge CS6 changed to 64 bit and also changed its database from MySQL to SQLite (and I don't know anything about this technical stuff myself I'm afraid).
Did you already used the advanced Find option in the edit menu (cmd + F) and inhere selected the parent folder on your source and included both options to include all subfolders and non-indexed files?
This first time may take long but after finished indexing it should work faster.

Bridge CS6 Cache and Freezing Issues

I downloaded Bridge CS6 and I have not been able to use it yet. I am on a MacBook Pro running 10.7.4 and every time I launch Bridge I get the following error:
Bridge encountered a problem and is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache Preferences to correct the situation.
When I try to purge the cache Bridge freezes up. If I don't try and purge the cache I am unable to navigate to any folders on my computer and it just hangs. I eventually have to force quit to get out of it. So far Bridge CS6 has been completely unusable.
Please help.
Thanks.

When I go to ~Library/Caches/ there is a folder for com.adobe.bridge5 but there isn't one for com.adobe.bridge6
Your in the wrong folder. Follow the path you have discovered yourself using the pref settings Curt suggested
~library/caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6 and inhere should be 2 files:
Adobe Bridge Plug-in Cache
and the folder called Cache. Inhere should be 4 folders called '254', '1024', 'data' and 'full'
All those folders carry the content of the respective quality of the thumbs and preview as well as 100 % cache and Bridge database.
Any way, Since you have not used Bridge you have no relevant amount of cache and I would suggest you quit both PS and Bridge and manual delete both the items (plug in and folder called cache at the end of the Bridge CS6 path mentioned above.
(both files will refresh itself after a restart of Bridge).
To be on the save side also visit in same user library the folder Preferences and look for the file called "com.adobe.bridge5.plist" (yes it is Bridge 5 that comes with CS6, all Adobe apps have their own version number and they are presented in the same Suite version. CS6 has PS version 13 and Bridge version 5 )
also drag this file to the trash.
Then hold down option key (alt) while starting Bridge and this should give you the option to reset the preferences as mentioned earlier in this thread.
Choose reset prefs and try again.

Bridge CS6 seach function is not working.

Hey
We have 2 mac osX lion machines with Adobe CS6 Design Standard installed. Each machine is connected to the same windows server.
Before we installed CS6 we were running CS5 and in CS5 the search function worked perfectly.
Can anyone helped me with this issue.
Thanks

Bridge starts--no functions--freezes cs6

Cannot get bridge to work in cs6. I am running win 7 64 bit. I would like to try cs6 before purchasing. Can anyone log on and see if they can figure this out? I have tried solutions sugggests in previous posts without any luck.

Hi,
I'm a Bridge QE. I may need to setup a connection with you so that I can check your machine to figure out what happens there. Please tell me the time which is convenient for you if you are willing to do so.
Thanks!

Bridge CS6 Photo downloader freezes on .mov files

Bridge CS 6 photo downloader freezes on .mov files from a T4i. To get the video files I've had to use Bridge CS5 photo downloader.
I have PS CS5, PrPro & AE CS6 if this makes a difference. Photos are no problem downloading.
Any ideas? Thanks.

I shoot both. I use Bridge & ACR CS6 to view and edit Raw files. CS5 doesn't recognise the Raw files (had to convert to dng before I got Bridge CS6). CS6 will download both Raw & Jpeg files. It hangs up on the .mov files.
I use a card reader on my Epson printer. I've cleared the cache in Bridge. How do I resfresh the prefs in Bridge?
My OS:
Intel i7 3770, Windows 7 Pro w/SP1, 64 bit, Intel 520 Series SSD, 32G RAM, 2 – 2T RAID, (1T external), GTX 550 Ti graphics
Thanks for your help.

Why is the download function in Bridge in CS 6 freezing up?

Download in Bridge in CS 6 simply quits. I can switch to CS 5 Bridge and download pictures from my flashcards with no problems. What is wrong?

A complete freeze up of my photo downloader means I won't be able to pull up my source drive or make changes to my import settings. Sometimes I can pull up the source drive but not be able to set the destination. What is odd is that all of these functions work on CS5 Bridge which I have left installed on my machine. Any ideas?

Bridge CS6 64-bit and 32-bit FREEZE on Launch

Now I am having problems with Bridge CS6 again. Both 64-bit and 32-bit suddenly have the behavior of freezing on launch. I get the application window open but no icons populate and I can't do anything in the interface. Not even close the application. I have to use Windows Task Manager to quit the application forcibly.
Not sure what's going on. I went to the start menu and hit Ctrl+Bridge 64-bit to give me the options to reset preferences, dump the cache, and one other option that I also checkmarked. Still no dice.
Can anyone help me out before Adobe Customer Support becomes available in 4 hours?

While searching for a set of files on my computer using traditional search in the gui i discovered that the indexing functionality of windows was turned off. I tried to turn it on and search again but kept getting the error that indexing was turned off. I went to the event viewer and saw hundreds of events related to this error. I thought by suspicion that there might be a correlation between this windows malfunction and adobe bridge not functioning properly. After finding an appropriate solution to reset the search functionality of Windows known as 1) Windows Search and also as 2) Indexing, I tried to run Bridge again and now it works just fine. So the solution to the Bridge problem was to fix Windows Search and also fix Indexing of files.

Bridge cs6 freezes when i select video files

Was hoping someone could help me solve this problem
I just installed CS6 master collection however am having a problem with bridge
even though bridge displays thumbnails of my avi files, every time i click on an avi file to select it bridge hangs/freezes and i have to force quit
this also happens when i select all in a folder that has avi files or other video files in it
it even happens when i select a folder that has a video file in it..it just hangs and stops responding
i still have bridge cs5 installed and it is displaying all files in folders perfectly including video files
the avi files are from my camera therefore they are really all around 1-3mins long
OS: Mac 10.6.8
i7
media stored on external hardrive firewire 8

i followed your instructions and after restarting bridge it actually let me select the folder with the video files...it displayed the first 19 preview extractions with their thumbnails in the content pane in less than a second
then it took 40 minutes to show the next 80 and with these there were no thumbnail preview files
it took at least a minute after clicking on a video file for bridge to select it and tho it did display the metadata there were no preview in the preview pane
after restarting bridge a second time..i encountered the same problem as before...inability to even select the folder with the avi files
i dont know if this will help but these 3 error messages appear everytime it hangs ( i don't understand what they mean but maybe you do)

the other theory i have is maybe it has something to do with quicktime 10 player ?
thanx for all your help so far

Any way to download Bridge CS6?

I was really upset that CC doesn't have the PDF-making option that CS6 had. It was an easy, streamlined way to make multi-page contact sheets for my clients. The Contact Sheet function through Photoshop is clunky and time-consuming as hell.
I'd really love to just have a copy of Bridge CS6 for that sole reason.

With your CC subscription you still have access and permission to download and use a CS6 application.
Try this link for a start:
https://creative.adobe.com/products
Choose Photoshop and somewhere is the option to change CC version to CS6 version, download and install and you have Bridge CS6 again

When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue

Hi Jdentremont,
Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to
“X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
2. Delete all the files in this folder.
3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
Best regards,
Eric

After reinstalling CS6 the bridge photo downloader isn't able to read raw files and fails to convert the raw files to DNG. Previously downloaded raw files, now DNG, open up successfully in Camera Raw 7. How do I get the photo downloader to read and convert raw files. MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard. No such problem before this reinstallation.

You should install Camera Raw 4.6.

Bridge CS6 cache problem causes freeze

MacPro early 2008, 10 mb RAM, Apple OSX 10.7.3, CS5 already installed.
CS6 Beta was working fine until today.
Now when I open Bridge CS6 I get "Bridge encountered a problem and is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache Preferences to correct the situation." I then try to purge the cache, but nothing happens and Bridge freezes.
Worse, I cannot use my keyboard at all or perform any mouse click actions if Bridge is the active window. I cannot close Bridge. What I can do is alt/tab to another window, and then Force Close Bridge.
I have tried restarting the MacPro but this does not solve the problem.
The problem started earlier today after I re-edited a nef which I had previously edited in ACR 6. I cancelled all the previous edits first.
Also, yesterday I installed Little Snitch, which I have now uninstalled.
There are no CrashReporter logs for the freezing problem.

How is your disk free space? When I loaded Bridge CS6 the default option was for 100% preview. That takes a lot of time and space to build. Can occupy gigs of space.
I reset thumbnails to embedded. Much smaller and faster and for me works just fine.

Bridge CS6 freezes when generating PDF output (windows 8)

I am using Adobe Bridge CS6 (64bit) on a Windows 8 machine. I have photos that I want to output to PDF. Bridge will freeze in the process of generating the PDF file. I have to go to the Task Manager to quit. Sometimes the PDF file has been made successfully when I look for it. Other times not.

I have photos that I want to output to PDF. Bridge will freeze in the process of generating the PDF file.
How many files and how big are these files?
What filetype do you use?
Output (as Bridge itself) can be very processor demanding on a big task and enough RAM and free space left on start up disk.
How much RAM and free space do you have?

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.)

All I See Is the CC Version, which Never Works Well With My School Assignments. Please Tell Me Where I Go to Find this Cuz the PullDown Arrow Is No Longer Available. BTW - I Didn't See It Listed Under Previous Versions Either.
thanks!

Lyleb64687719 have you utilized the steps listed in CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html to verify the Creative Suite 6 version was not available? What type of a Creative Cloud membership do you have?
You can also download the Creative Suite 6 installation files from Download CS6 products. Installing any of the applications or suites which include Bridge CS6 should allow Bridge CS6 to install.
