Bridge/photoshop probelm

I have creative suite 3 installed on my work computer which is a dell xps 420 and I have it installed on my home computer which is a dell inspiron 530s.
On my work computer in bridge I can go to the tools menu and select Photoshop and then functions like photo merge but its not present on my home computer!
Is there a reason for this??? Am I missing an update or something? what have I done wrong??
Thanks for any help or advice

I would not try a re-install yet. In the startup script menu, uncheck all that you do not need. If this is a problem area you can start with none and see if that changes anything. Then add others that you need once it is working. Some users have conflicts with some scripts.
If you have looked at this site you see a reoccurring theme. If you have weird problems it is a good bet to try resetting preferences. When starting Bridge hold down the Ctrl key. If successful you will get a restart window with 3 options. Choose all three. See if that helps.
Not sure what resetting preferences does to the startup scrip menu, but if it adds them all back in you might want to uncheck ones you don't need so you don't get in an endless error loop.
A re-install will not affect the preferences file, so if there are errors there now it will be there after also.

    I shoot with a Canon 7D, have Windows 7 installed on my computer, Adobe CS4 (Bridge & Photoshop). I'm trying to open the CR2 files in Bridge to adjust them before I open them up in Photoshop, but it's giving me an error code saying it's the wrong file type. I downloaded the latest updates for Adobe Raw as well as the DNG converter, however I don't want to have to convert to DNG before opening in Bridge. Please let me know what I can do to open the CR2 files directly in Bridge CS4, thank you!

    Make sure you have the right version...

  • Bridge photoshop batch problem

    Hi there,
    After upgrading to Photoshop CS4 from CS3 (new install), I am having a problem with running Photoshop batch from bridge.
    I have actions that work fine when run from Photoshop but fail when run from bridge.
    I don't seem to be able to run any Photoshop actions from bridge without a failure.
    The error messages include:
    "JavaScript code was missing"
    "The command 'Pixel Genius PhotoKit Capture Sharpener Expert' is not currently available"
    As well as other seemingly random "the command .... is not currently available".
    I am running Vista 64 bit.
    If anyone has any ideas - I would appreciate them.
    Thanks,
    Richard.

    Hi there again,
    An update to this problem.
    The problem appears to be with Bridge-Photoshop communication.
    I select images in bridge, choose Tools->Photoshop->Batch.  Photoshop opens and I select the Action to run and click OK.  At this point, if Photoshop had no image already loaded then the Action fails because there is no image, ie. the selected images from Bridge are not opened in Photoshop.  The error messages are consistent with having no image loaded to run the various action tasks on.
    If Photoshop already had an image loaded, then it proceeds to run the Action, once for the number of images I first selected in Bridge, but on the image that was already loaded - not on the images selected in Bridge.
    I have deinstalled and reinstalled Photoshop and all its updates with no change.  Any ideas at all would be appreciated.
    BTW Image Processor works ok when invoked from Bridge.
    Tks,
    Richard.

  • How does the image time stamp display /modification vary among Bridge, Photoshop, and PS Element Org

    I've noticed some discrepancies between times recorded in my image EXIF data as well as the time displayed with images in Bridge and Photoshop Elements Organizer.  For instance I may have a series of images shot within a few minutes of each other.  After having done some manipulation of a subset of the images and later on showing the sequence in both Bridge and PSE Organizer, I have noticed that the time associated with some of the images has changed.  Bridge and PSE Organizer may actually show times that differ by several hours.  It almost looks like the time is converted from the original camera time to UTC and then possibly back to the time zone where my computer is located.  The pattern is not completely consistent and may depend on what Adobe products have been used to adjust or catalog the images.  I'm looking for a good and complete description of how each product handles the image date and time stamp.  I suspect that there is some inconsistency in how this is done across the products.  I'm currently using Bridge / Photoshop CS6 Extended and Photoshop Elements Organizer 10.0 which were recently upgraded from CS 5 and 8.0 respectively.  I also use Adobe Camera Raw 7.1 to edit the Nikon raw files.  This problem appears to predate the upgrade of my products.

    Well, it must be a system-specific bug of some sort that's been introduced, because I was able to create a 4200 x 3500 image made by mapping an image of similar size to a cylinder, and the cylinder would move/rotate in real time.  Of course, I have a completely different video card and system than you do, but I'm just verifying that it's not broken everywhere.
    Rendering isn't hugely fast, but that's not unexpected with a larger image.
    Maybe being more specific would help.  Is your mesh complex?
    Is it something you'd be willing to share online or describe how to create?  I would be happy to try to match what you're doing more thoroughly to see whether I can reproduce the slowdowns.
    Beyond that, I'm not sure what to suggest...  You don't have a lot of RAM to be working on 15 megapixel images, but as you say the thing to concentrate on is that you're seeing quite different performance from the Ps CS6 beta version.

  • Bridge/Photoshop Colour Issues

    Bridge/ Photoshop Colour Issues:
      It appears that there are a few pictures that are noticeably dull, when I load them in Bridge and Photoshop.   Those same pictures are very vibrant when I look at them directly from the SD card or load them into Picassa.  I tried editing the picture, saving it in Photoshop, then opening it up in Picassa and it has the same dullness.  Since having this issue, I have updated the drivers on my Quadro graphics card, but I think it may be something to do with the way that I set up Adobe Bridge, because this is the first time I have imported a large batch of photos from Bridge.  However, I pretty much left everything as the standard settings in Bridge.  Any suggestions?
      FYI - I just started using the Adobe Master Collection, with Win 7 Pro 64 and Huey Pro embedded on my laptop. My colour settings are Huey Pro on my laptop, SRGB in Photoshop and General Purpose for Bridge (I haven’t had this issue before and Huey Pro has been my colour settings on my laptop since I got Adobe).

    That turns off color management in Photoshop, so yes, that would match other applications that aren't color managed at all. You're not fixing the problem, you're just hiding the symptom.
    If you're certain the Photoshop version is wrong, that means your monitor profile is corrupt. A corrupt monitor profile only affects color managed software like Photoshop. Other applications don't use the monitor profile and never touch it.
    If it's merely the fact that Photoshop is different, that's normal and all as it should be. With a valid monitor profile Photoshop is right and the others wrong.

  • Embedding fonts in Bridge (Photoshop CS5)

    Hi folks!
    I'm sorry for posting but I still have trouble with creating PDF via Bridge.
    I have sveral PSD-Files (CS5 made) using several image- and textlayers.
    Now I want to create multipage-PDF using Bridge that comes with PS CS5.
    Works fine so far but Bridge does not embed those fonts used in the PSD!
    Seems to me Bridge just merges all layers to one pixelbased image and saves it in PDF-format.
    But that's no good deal!
    In CS2 there was a much better solution in PS2 allowing to create multipaged PDF with embedded fonts.
    Is there any chance to embed fonts with Bridge?
    Plz don't tell me to use Acrobat or InDesign because I'm only using PS CS5.
    Thx!

  • Lightroom 1.1 - Adobe Camera RAW 4.1 (Bridge, Photoshop CS3) problem

    Dear all,
    I am having some problems with the appearance of files developed in adobe lightroom 1.1 or in adobe camera raw 4.1 from e.g. bridge or photoshop cs3. When developing in lightroom the images look great, however when using acr 4.1 and the same xmp sidecar settings imported from lightroom, the image in acr looks very pale in comparison. For example when using the export into photoshop option in Lightroom, the image in PS3 looks very pale to the one in lightroom. The same problem persists with developing using ACR 4.1 from bridge. I have turned autotoning in ACR off. Also in the color management of PS CS3, the desaturate checkbox is UNchecked.
    I am using an icc profile for my 30" cinema display, calibrated with colory eyes pro and a spyder2.
    Has anybody had similar problems with ACR 4.1 or am I just doing something horribly simple wrong?
    Thanks for your help!
    Immanuel

    Thomas,
    thanks for your reply. In Mac OS X Preview the images look all good and very much like what I see in Lightroom. In any case not as pale or like with a slight white overcast to what I see when using ACR 4.1 from Bridge or Photoshop CS3. In PS color settings, preserving embedded profiles is checked. Yes, it seems to me as well that this is some color management issue. The 30" Cinema display was calibrated using Color Eyes Pro and Spyder2 to Gamma 2.2 and 6500 temp. However, even when reverting to the standard Apple color profile for the monitor, the problem persists.
    No luck so far...

  • Indesign slow with Bridge -Photoshop-Illustrator

    Hello there,
    First, sorry for my english i'm French.
    One of my collegue is experiencing  issue with CS6 indesign.
    Installed in a PC with Intel core i7 370 2.93/2.93 gHZ, 16 GB RAM.
    Windows seven 64 bits.
    Once he open a files of more than 10 Mb in Indisign and open in the same times Bridge or photoshop to integrate pictures or illustrator the PC get really slow and the users must wait several minutes to get the work done.
    I never use myself The CS6 so I don't know if this behaviour is normal.
    Before that the user was using CS4 and he did not have so much trouble with the same kind of files and he was doing the same work on it.
    Beside the CS6, the unit has some standart software installed, Microsoft office 2003 and basically that's all except web navigator and some soft like cccleaner,VLC,Quicktime, nero burning room, kaspersky antivirus...
    He never get any error message, or blue screen or whatever...microsoft and adobe updates are done.
    All users in the services have the same hardware and software and this is the only one who had issue, the only difference is that he is working on bigger files.
    I have ask him to try to work on the PC of his colllegue to check if issue appears to but he willbe able to do the test tomorow PM only.
    When we have migrate from CS4 to CS6, I did not reinstall windows, just desinstalled CS4 and then install CS6.
    I didn't use the CS cleaner tool....
    Did someone knows where the issue can come from ? drive access or software related ?
    It's busy timing for now so I don't want to reinstall all the PC and CS6 before knowing it will solved the issue.
    Thx a lot,
    Elisa

    Is there any technical support when you buy CS6 ???
    I mean our compagny had Cs4 before and now -  like there is no upgrade anymore-  we bought 9 complete CS6 license ( including 2 master) and no help from adobe ?
    So basically:  adobe, it's we get your money we are happy if  you have issue,  we don't give a s**t !!!

  • Camera RAW changes not staying in Bridge/Photoshop

    Hi all,
    I've started having trouble with changes in Camera RAW not sticking once they're closed. I've got the XMP files, and Bridge shows the little icon to show it's been changed, but the changes aren't staying. I've tried clearing the cache, restarting the program and rebooting to no avail. To answer the preferred questions:
    Photoshop CC, 14.2.1 64x
    Totally updated
    Windows 8.1 Pro
    Nikon d800 RAW (NEF) files
    No error messages
    Making adjustments in Camera RAW (Photoshop) and then clicking 'done' when complete. This has always in the past saved the changes made until I make more, reset them, or delete the XMP file.
    Always worked previously
    Chrome, anti-virus. Never been an issue previously. Bridge usually runs at the same time.
    Using a Microsoft Surface Pro, 4GB RAM, over 50GB free on the drive. No changes made to the system, since I let it run as-is. No updates to hardware, no brushes, no plugins.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the reply, Trevor! I've been on this internets for a long while now, and the first thing i notice in forums are that people never seem to follow the posting guidelines and never seem to provide info that's needed to help them (see: many photog forums where people ask for lens/camera recs and never tell us budget, needs, current equipment, or what they actually WANT to photograph!), so I find it's expedient to actually provide necessary information! Gettng gold stars for well-thought out, thorough explanations: what a novel concept!
    Incidentally, I think I just worked it out. I added my external drive to my desktop PC to see if there was a difference, then noticed the same issue occurring. I had a sudden thought that the preview thumbnail wasn't showing up, and realised that the option to choose preview settings ('generate 100% previews' or 'prefer embedded') will make the edits disappear if you also have the cache purged.
    Cheers anyway!

  • Viewing CR2 files in Bridge/Photoshop

    Using the CS4 suite, downloaded the Camera Raw 5.6 updater and it doesn't seem to do anything.
    How can I view CR2 Canon raw files in Bridge and open in Photoshop?

    What camera model/make are you using?  If a later model ACR of CS4 might not cover it.

  • Bridge & Photoshop CS5, opening Photoshop files from Bridge

    If I open Bridge in Photoshop CS5, & double click on a jpeg thumbnail in Bridge, it will not automatically open the file in Photoshop. Why?
    How can I change my settings so that the files selected in Bridge will automatically open in Photoshop when double clicked?

    Hi, when you go to Bridge/Preferences/file Type Associations, & you see the box with a list of file formats in bold on the left, you will see a program name or the word 'None' next to each one, & an arrow to click on, to the right of each one.
    If you have 'None' written there, it means it hasn't got a program allocated to it, or it may have some other program written there instead.
    What you need is to see Adobe Photoshop CS5 in the list on the right, next to every file format that you use.
    You could try clicking on the Reset to Default button at the bottom of the box to see if it brings up Adobe Photoshop CS5 automatically.
    If it doesn't, or brings up other programs instead, click on each of the arrows on the right inside the box, then hit 'Browse'', then look on your hard disk for the program file for CS5, & select the actual application set up file 'Set-up.exe''.
    That's what worked for me.
    Good luck!
