CS4 Bridge Preview stops working

While in Bridge, if I press the space bar to zoom in on an image preview, the image enlarges just fine to full screen, but when I press the space bar again to return to the normal preview, the normal preview window is blank. It remains blank when I click on other images too. The only way I can get the normal sized preview to return is to go to "workspace" and re-click the workspace I was already in and it seems to clear the problem up - until I want to zoom in by using the spacebar again.
Another, possibly separate, problem is when I do use the space bar to zoom in on an image, if I click to zoom in even more, sometimes (not always) it tells me the image is "not available" and it does not zoom in any closer.
Does anyone have any input on this problem?
Windows XP, 3G RAM
Thank you,
Monte

Monte,
I have noticed the same thing regarding the missing preview after returning from space bar/review mode. I have what is supposed to be a CS4/OpenGL compatible card (Nvidia 8800GT).
I suppose this is one of those things that Adobe blames on Nvidia and Nvidia blames on Adobe.
I have found a relatively simple way to get the preview back though. I just minimize Bridge and then bring it back. That seems to work. In Windows, this can be done pretty easily by just clicking on Bridge in the task bar twice (once to minimize and once to bring it back).

  • "Adobe Bridge has stopped working"

    Just installed CS2 Version 9.0.  Having "Adobe Bridge has stopped working"  Windows 7 Pro 64.  Is there a solution to this problem?
    Thanks?

    Curt,
    Thanks for getting back to me.
    Bridge had worked before.  When I refer to BRIDGE I mean that I go to a
    folder of photos in PS and select file/browse to open.  This feature
    does work with other folders of photos.  It was when I downloaded photos
    from my cell phone into a folder and in PS went to file/browse the
    browser will open and then I get a message "Adobe Bridge has stopped
    working."
    I can still go to another photo folder in PS and select file/browse and
    it will work, the problem is with the photos from my cell photo.
    Do you have any ideas.
    I have the latest  versions of PS.
    Thanks,

    I am having this same problem, but I am using windows 8.1  (64 bit) -  Toshiba Click 2 pro, 1920 x 1080 resolution.
    I just installed Design Standard CS6, everything said these would be compatible,

  • Adobe Bridge (CS6) Stopped Working & Application Manager Fails No Matter What

    Adobe Bridge (CS6) Stopped Working & Application Manager Fails No Matter What I do.
    I have uninsalled, ran the cleaner, installed, and Bridge will not open, Application manager will not run.

    Good luck with that, and don't forget to deactivate CS6. 
    My system is slowing down after nearly two years, and I am dreading a reinstall - there always seems to be something you have forgotten!  What really worries me is what happens to existing raid0 arrays seeing as the mainboard needs drivers.   They are backed up, but I just don't trust a single level backup, and will have to add a further 3Tb of drive space to make a straight copy of the raid0 arrays.  I also like the idea of Windows 8.1, but dread finding out that the drivers don't work!
    The Premiere Pro hardware forum is the perfect place to ask about stuff like that.  Harm, Bill, Erik etc. are super clued up on such things, so I shall run my concerns past them before committing. 
    So I wish you good luck again, and I know you'll make a plan before going ahead with it.

  • **Bridge  Has stopped working

    I'm having a problem with my Bridge. As soon as I attempt to open I recieve an Error message "Adobe Bridge has stopped working" (it won't even open). I'm running Vista and I've never had this problem. I recently added a printer drive for Epson r-1800. Has anyone had this problem before.

    you should probably check in the bridge forum...

  • Bridge suddenly stopped working

    Hello everybody,
    My Adobe Bridge just stopped working without any reason.
    An hour ago i used it without any problems, now when i start it, the program freezes instantly and the only thing i can do is close it.
    I read the sticky topic on it, and i tried installing the newest graphic driver and removing 3rd party plugins. I couldn't find the preferences so i could not reset them.
    Does anybody have any idea how i can make my bridge work again ? Because this is REALLY annoying.
    Thanks in advance !
    Kindest regards,
    mambo88

    Yes i am, my pc settings are pretty much the same as when Bridge worked.
    It was really weird; i was just using PS and Bridge untill i was finished. Then i closed both, but after a while i remembered i had to do some additional photoshopping so i opened both programs again. Ever since then bridge wouldn't start anymore.

  • [Solved]Vbox 3.1.2 - Bridged networking stopped working on Arch guest

    After upgrading Virtual Box to 3.1.2 (both ose and puel versions apply here) bridged networking stopped working on an Arch guest which I use as a test server.
    While writing this post I solved the problem. What I did was to enable NAT on the first adapter and Bridging on the second. After booting into to the guest I did the following;
    # ifconfig eth1 up
    # dhcpcd eth1
    I shutdown the guest and removed the NAT adapter so only the bridged one remained, booted it and voilá for some mysterious and unfathomable reason bridging now works again.

    Make sure both computers are turned on and awake. 
    Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
    Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
    Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.

  • Photoshop CS4 Image Processor Stopped Working

    My workflow consists of tagging photos in Bridge then using Photoshop actions via the Image Processor from the Bridge tools>photoshop menu.  All the sudden it stopped working, the image processor box doesn't pop up anymore.  When choosing a folder manually through Photoshop, it says Sorry I Can't Complete The File...... (like it always says when it's successful) but nothing processes.  I have reset all the factory settings.
    OSX 10.5.8 w/ Adobe Suite CS4
    I need to get this project finished today rather than wasting my whole weekend doing manual actions on nearly 2000 photos for the next week straight.  This process has been successful for the past 3 years.
    Thanks so much in advance for your time.

    That must have been an ungodly degree of nesting. 
    The Image Processor is actually a plug-in script, written by Russell Brown.  If you like it, you should try Dr. Brown's Services 2.0.2 (for CS4; for CS5 there's a later beta version available) by the same author and also free.  It's like the Image Processor on steroids.  I haven't used the latter for years, since installing Dr. Brown's Services.

    It seems when i do something simple as typing text, it'll stop working and give me a "Adobe Photoshop suddenly stop working". My CS4 32bit version seems to working fine with whatever i'm working on. I'm running a fresh install of Windows 7 64bit Ultimate on a new computer Intel quad core with 4gig of ram if that helps. Sorry if this have been asked before but i couldn't find anything on these forums. Thanks in advance.

    i deleted the prefs file and now i can open photoshop. but it seems as if it crashes if i open ANY file with ANY text, no matter what the font is.

  • CS4 64-bit stopped working completely

    I have a new computer with wondows 7 and when I installed CS4 it worked perfect in the beginning but after a few weeks PS CS4 64-bit stopped and I could only open the "normal" version.
    If I try to open the 64-bit it says: "Adobe photoshop cs4 does not work anymore, looking for a solution" and after that I can only quit the program.
    Does anybody know what the problem is and how I can fix this?
    thanks in advanced,
    marca

    Sounds like something that was installed or configured is now in conflict with Photoshop CS4 64 bit.
    Did you update anything (e.g., download new video drivers) at the time that Photoshop 64 bit stopped working?
    How long has it been?  Can you consider doing a System Restore back to when it worked?  You might have some stuff to reinstall, but you could check after each to know what it is that's conflicting with Photoshop.
    Hope this helps.
    -Noel
    P.S., Photoshop CS4 64 bit works just fine for me on my fully up-to-date Windows 7 x64 system, so keep heart; it can work.

  • CS4 on Windows7 stopped working, won't start

    I have regularly been using CS4 on Windows7 64 bit but today, it won't open. Windows comes up and says "stopped working" and can't find a solution. Any suggestions?

    Do you get any messages on the screen apart from "stopped working".  you normally get an error number.  Without this, the only solution I can think of is to re-install the package from the disk.  You will need your CDs/DVDs and serial number to get this working again.
    First try to repair the package by going to the control panel.  The screen looks something like this:
    You get options to uninstall, Change or Repair and you want Repair. 
    The above picture is from my Windows 8 machine but your Windows 7 should almost be identical.  But you get the ideas.

  • Gif file preview stopped working

    New computer. Gif file preview was working last night and now I'm just getting a still picture. I installed Photo Impact Pro and that program may have made some changes. I can't preview gifs in that program.  Anyone know a way to restore this feature? I would like to be able to click on a gif file and see it move in preview like it was doing.

    Hi,
    First of all you have to make analysis of the issue.. why its comming..
    thats why i had suggested you to uninstall your newer installed software.. by uninstalling them you can analyse the issue.
    may be programme hadnt installed correctly thats why you are getting this error.
    Please, try to troubleshoot the issue by your self.. uninstall the programme and then check.. if our .gif works with older programme perfectly then your newely installed programme having issue or it was not installed correctly..
    you can install your uninstalled programme later to resolve that issue.

  • The preview stopped working in the develop module.

    Initially the preview worked for 15 minutes and then stopped generating a preview of the desired pre-set.
    Clicking on the pre-set did have the correct picture but the preview wasn't available.
    It would be easier to see what preview you were looking at if you had a higher contrast on the grey background too.

    Hi - I'm seeing the same issue. And yes I am seeing it in Develop with Grid view on second monitor.
    I can reproduce this by hovering over another image in Grid on second monitor (this brings up the new image in Navigator), then going back to main screen and hovering over any preset - no more preset updates to Navigator.
    Interestingly navigator continues to show files if hovered over in Grid on the second monitor though..
    Presets continue to work if clicked so this seems to be purely an issue with updating Navigator with Presets 'on the fly'.
