Bridge won't save changes made in Camera Raw, no idea why this started happening. Details below.

Once I've selected images to edit, I can make changes in Camera Raw, but then as soon as I hit the 'Done' button, I get the error message "Unable to save the raw conversion settings. There was a write permissions error.". Why? I am the only user on this computer and I have no idea why I would not have permission to access my own work. I could use this fine a few days ago, now everything is not working. I'm using a late Sept 2013 MacBook Pro 15" with OS X Mavericks and the newest software version of Bridge. Please, can anyone help? I need to edit wedding photos and have them done by next week and at this rate I'll have to refund them for all the work I've done. And I can't really afford to do that.
Any advice at all would be great.

First, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility.
Then verify that you have Read and Write permissions to the folder or volume you are saving to.

    Bridge won't allow me to open Camera Raw because a qualifying product has not been launched, any suggestions?

    Actually, it may be more to it. I just wasted good 7 hours on the issue: I transferred a big external drive from old WinXp system to my new W7 system, and faced the ownership mayhem ever since.
    No matter what I did to the Volume Owner, Files Owner and attributes, recursive Directory Ownership jobs enduring tens of minutes at a time, nothing helped really.
    Because you might have one more issue:
    Use "Folder Options", either from Tools menu in Explorer, if menu shows, or via Control Panel.
    Click on View tab, and find the box for "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)". Ignore that recommendation, uncheck.
    Go now to the root directory of your troubled drive and you will see a hidden file "System Volume Information". This can be the "bad guy." Ensure that you have access to that file using the Properties / Security tab in a customary fashion! In my case that file was "padlocked", a small lock icon was placed over the folder icon to indicate that.
    Only once I changed that, I was able to access the LR catalogs as a regular user. And only than LR was finally able to access existing previews and to display the grid image icons!
    Ugrh.... Windows, the "personal computer system" is a mess, a labyrinth of convoluted intertwined dependencies, maybe created in competing departments and piled up atop of each other in an unseemly fashion. Compared to Unix and its derivatives it is a nightmare, which is a part of our lives for decades already.
    I think that all the Apple users are now double-happy to have made the transition, when they see such "problems."

  • Why don't changes made in camera raw with the adjustment brush carry into photoshop?

    Why don't changes made in camera raw with the adjustment brush carry into photoshop?

    Using the Open button in ACR to get to PS doesn’t create a PSD or a TIF, it just transfers the image in memory. 
    As has been asked, already, what are the precise steps of your workflow starting with your painting the adjustment brush strokes in ACR and seeing the image in PS without the strokes, and what exact versions of PS and ACR are you using? 
    Use Help / About Photoshop..., and Help / About Plug-ins... / Camera Raw...

  • CC & PS WON'T LAUNCH / BRIDGE WON'T LET ME EDIT IN CAMERA RAW

    I'm on Mac OS X. First problem I encountered today was that Bridge would not let me edit in Camera Raw. It gave me this warning:
    Camera Raw editing is not enabled.
    Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product
    has been launched at least once to enable this feature
    I tried launching PS and my short cut bounces in my dock like it is going to open, then nothing happens. Same thing when I try to launch CC or the Uninstall manager. So I found on a different forum to run the Adobe Cleaner and it did the same thing. Have many projects I have to complete for my job. Thanks in advance for any help!

    ...Turns out the ONE obvious thing I hadn't tried was to go into the CC App itself, into preferences, then log out of my Adobe account and back in again - fixed the issue!
    I couldn't believe its so simple and feel a bit stupid - but I had completely uninstalled the main CC App then re-downloaded it from Adobe, it downloaded already logged in as I was logged in on the website.
    I hope this helps someone else with the same issue, as I had scoured the forums and the Adobe FAQ pages and hadn't found any solution. I stumbled across this whilst waiting for an agent to answer on the live chat!

  • Bridge Not Showing Changes made in Camera Raw

    Hi I work on an iMac (Mac OS X, version 10.4.11), and am currently trialing CS4.  My problem is that I have been processing Canon Raw files in Camera Raw, but when I view the images in the preview pane of Bridge, it is not showing the changes that I have made.
    This is just a sudden problem.  I have been working like this for ages in CS3, and it was even working properly in this trial version of CS4, but literally all of a sudden in the middle of processing a wedding shoot it stopped showing the changes.  So half the images now show the changes but the rest do not, and it no longer shows any of the changes I make in Camera Raw
    Does anyone have any answers to why this suddenly changed?
    Cheers Da     ni

    "Sudden" is usually a sign to trash your suddenly corrupted preferences.  Hold down the option key as you launch Bridge.
    You may also need to Purge the Cache for each offending folder through the Tools Menu in Bridge.
    Also check your thubmnail  options:

  • Changes made in Camer Raw are not visible in Bridge

    I'm editing the RAW images in Camera raw started from Bridge (Ctr- R). By returning to Bridge with "done" the changes are not visible. This worked until recently.
    s there any setting which prevents Bridge taking in consideration the info from the XMP file ?
    Re-starting Camera Raw I can see the changes from the previous session ...
    thanks in advance

    I love these quick solutions also. 

  • Problems getting previews in Bridge to reflect changes made in Camera Raw

    I have updated both my photoshop and camera raw to the most recent. I have purged cache and still when I make changes to an image in camera raw it is not reflected in the previews in Bridge. Anyone else having this issue? or perhaps know how to fix it?

    That was it! I had to change workspaces to get the bridge preview setting buttons to come up but once I found it this was the issue. Thanks so much!

  • PSE 8 doesn't see color changes made in Camera Raw

    I have just installed PSE 8 and am getting started.  I have made changes to an image in Camera Raw through Bridge and when I import it to PSE 8 it doen't have the changes.  It shows the original image.  What do I do to connect the two?  Also Bridge "Creative Suite Color Settings" can't be enabled.  It requires that a qualifing product be launched at least once to enable.  But there is no info that I can find about this.   Does this have anything to do with my problem? 

    At the very bottom of the ACR window you'll see blue link text with the info about the color space, bit depth, etc. of your image. Click it to bring up this window:
    where you can make changes. In PSE, go to Edit>Color Settings.

  • CS6 Bridge does not show adjustments made in Camera Raw

    How can I fix this?

    Dear Gene,
    I LOVE YOU!!!! THAT DID IT!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
    I've spent hours on this issue, had to process 6,000 Iceland images in CS4 and then redo them in CS6 to be able to see the adjustments, and have spent at least 5-6 hours doing many re-installations and trolling the Adobe site in a circle just trying to contact support. WHEW!!!
    I am very grateful for your help!! Thank you.
    My warmest wishes,
    Marianne

  • Firefox keyboard layout changes to something I don't recognize, the traditional [ QWERTY ] reads as [ ',.pyf ] any idea why this would happen or how to change it back short of killing firefox and restarting.

    This happens randomly and infrequently. At first I thought it was my cats fault but it has recently happened while I was sitting at the computer with no feline interference. If someone could let me know how, if it's possible, to change the keyboard layout to QWERTY I will try this next time it happens to see if it can be corrected without restarting firefox. For a larger sample I will include the lines below:
    The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
    yd. 'gcjt xpr,b urq hgmlo rk.p yd. na;f eri
    This is only effecting firefox, no other programs are changed and it does effect all running and new instances of firefox.

    See:
    * http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/The-Language-bar-overview - The Language bar (overview)
    It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
    * Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar.
    * You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar.
    * Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar.
    * You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application.
    * The default keys to rotate the layout is a combination (Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.
    * To avoid an unintentional switch assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctr+Shift)
    * Vista: Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Keyboards and Languages > Change keyboards > Advanced key settings > Change key sequence

  • TS2647 My keynote files keeps saving my document as a package even though "Save new documents as packages" is not selected. I also do not have Stuffit Expander on my system. Any ideas why this is happening?

    My Keynote file is NOT creating a single file but creating a folder with all the decks files.
    1. I have "Save new documents as packages" deselected in Keynote preferences. And…
    2. I do not have StuffIt Expander on my system.
    Any suggestions.

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

  • The images in my project on illustrator appear one way but save differently in PDF. Any idea why this is happening?

    In Illustrator, this is what I see... this is what I want.
    When saved as a PDF, this is what I see... a much harsher white outline on the star fish.
    Anybody know why this is happening?

    First, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility.

  • Address book won't save changes to note field

    Like the header says. Address book won't save changes to note field. There's another thread with the same header:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2591053?threadID=2591053  But it's archived so I had to post this new one.
    If I made a change in any non-note field however, it would stay.
    Note: the notes field can be edited with actually having to go into official "edit" mode. Does this make it more prone to corruption? Why would Apple make the notes field NOT need that extra step of protection. Do they think my notes aren't as important?  How would they know?
    I fixed this one card with a bandaid solution by exporting it and reimporting it.  But I guess I need to do that with all 2,000 of my contacts now. It was mentioned on theother thread that somebody made an address book backup and then deleted every contact in the address book and imported them fresh from the backup and that worked.
    The underlyilng issue is still not solved though. How could this happpen in the first place, and how do I know what other contacts haven't held lthe changes I thought I made?

    Hi,
    Using the Note field
    You can add notes to any contact in Address Book. This makes it easy to keep track of details about a person in your address book.
    Select the person in the Name column in Address Book, then click the Note field in the card.
    The Note field can be edited at any time, even if the card is not in edit mode.
    You could make a dedicated field that requires the edit button...
    Using custom labels
    You can change the label that appears next to a piece of information on a contact's card. For example, you might want to change "work" to "support" next to a phone number.
    Select the contact that you want to change.
    Click the Edit button at the bottom of the window.
    Click the label next to a field, then choose Custom from the pop-up menu.
    Enter a new label for the field.
    The new custom label appears on this contact's card only.
    If you want to change a specific label on all cards in your Address Book, edit the card template. Choose Address Book > Preferences and click Template. The Template pane also allows you to add other types of fields on contact cards, such as a nickname, job title, birthday, anniversary, and URL. Use the Add Field menu.
