MD5 Checksum Changes When Renaming Files in Bridge?
Just like the title says: MD5 checksum seems to be changing when renaming files in Bridge
Is this normal? Is there anyway to disable this? Checksums do not seem to change when renaming a file outside of Bridge (ie; in Windows Explorer or Mac Finder).
Ken
P.S. System is Windows 7 using Bridge CS6 (64bit)
Thanks for the quick reply Curt.
Until you just now asked the question, I could not explain why it should not change. Now, if I understand correctly after googling around a bit, it appears the hash can be computed either with or without the filename (among other things).
Apparently Bridge computes the hash including the filename. It seems there is an option to compute the hash based only on the file contents (ie; without the filename). My assumption was that by default, the checksum was generated using only the files contents (ie; without the filename).
I'm hoping someone can comment definitively on how Adobe Bridge does it and whether or not there's a way to change it.

Key repeat issues when renaming files
I am having trouble with the cursor arrow key repeating when renaming files. When I press and hold the left or right arrows while renaming in Cover Flow view, it starts scrolling through the files instead of moving the cursor through the filename.
This also seems to happen when renaming files on an attached USB device. Instead of moving the cursor it moves the file selection bar after a few cursor repeat actions.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? Is there a fix?This has been bugging me too. I noticed it right back when Leopard was still 10.5.0 and thought they would have at least acknowledged it by now. In coverflow view, the files scroll across the covers, in list mode the folder tree collapses if you hold the left arrow key. And another annoying thing Leopard does is that when you're renaming, if any file in that folder changes, it abandons the rename instead of continuing, making your keystrokes move up and down the list of files without warning.

Bridge freezes when renaming files
When I rename certain files or folders, Bridge freezes on this message:
Updating the cache for items within the folder recursively...
It doesn't happen with all files or folders, but I haven't been able to determine a pattern. I've also had issues with the previews associated with some files (I just get a gray box), so I'm thinking it's obviously a cache issue. I've cleared the cache multiple times with no success. Any ideas?
I'm running OSX 10.6.7 (which brought with it lovely bug in PDFs with PostScript-flavored OpenType fonts), which might be an issue. I'm also using Dropbox 0.7.110, with three other users...there are a whole lot of files in Dropbox that constantly update, so I can see how that might affect it to.localproductions wrote:
…wonder what else it could be...
It could be Time Machine, Spotblight, Dropbox… especially the obnoxious, intrusive Time Machine.

The players: Photoshop, Bridge, Dropbox, Time Machine, Spotlight, Finder
Photoshop
creates a temp file, writes to the temp file, and renames the temp to
replace the original file, plus gets stat on the files.
Bridge only reads the file, and writes to it's database.
Finder gets attributes on the file in the normal folders.
Dropbox
gets stat on the files from 2 different processes (Dropbox,
dbfseventsd), even outside it's directory, even in temporary
directories.
Spotlight (mdworker, mds) gets stat, and reads the
files, even in temporary directories, sometimes while the file is still
being written.
Time Machine (backupd) gets stats, reads the files, and sometimes sets attributes on the files, even in temporary directories.
Photoshop, Bridge and Finder are acting as expected.
While Dropbox and Spotlight are doing some excess work, they don't seem to cause file modifications.
But
Time Machine is doing things wrong and causing file modifications, plus
would fit with the "have the file open a long time" symptom.
and
on my own system I've confirmed that Dropbox and dbfseventsd will get stats on files outside the Dropbox folder.
Dropbox has some bugs to fix.

Can't rename file in Bridge CS6 after update
I recently did an update to bridge CS6, after that I can no longer rename the files in bridge and I don't see the file and format name under the image like I use to. How do I get it back??!! I HATE THIS UPDATE.
Please help!! Thanks!Nevermind I figured it out!
Now how do I delete this question???
Thanks! -
Why is the label color not changing when my file is updated?
I would like the label color to change to white when a file has been updated/changed. Since upgrading to 10.7.2 the file color stays the same. Is there a setting I am missing that will allow the file to go back to white when updated?
Thanks for any input...As far as I know, this is not standard functionality in the Mac OS. Granted this, some third party application, or a script of something, was making this happen for you. Somehow the system update broke it. If you can figure out what software was giving you this feature, maybe you can update it or re-install it.

Noise & shapness when view files in Bridge
I am a CS6 user, good but not advanced. I recently upgraded from a Nikon D3 to a D4. When viewing D4 files in Bridge after downloading the images (files) appear to contain a lot of noise and to be unsharpe; they appear sharp on the LCD screen on the camera. I have not experiences with my D3. I believe I have set my preferences properly. When the files are opened in CR or CS6 the noise seems to go away and sharpness is normal; the images print up tack sharp. Any idea what's going on? I'm through out some files that appeared bad, but may have been good.
In Bridge choose folder with bad images. Click Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder. If this solves problem purge cache for rest of system, either globably, or if you have cache exported to folders then the Tools/cache method.

Unable to use reverse geocoding when renaming files
I've asked about this on different discussion boards but no answer so far. The first versions of Lightroom that came with reverse geocoding did not have this problem. But somehow after an update in Lightroom 4 the Google reverse geocoded location fields cannot be used to rename files. This was very convenient for me to export images to people as a landscape photographer working in many places and making it easy for others to locate the place via the filename.
Is this a bug or a Google rights thing? And is there a way to make reverse geocoded metadata permanent (not in gray and italics?) because when I overtype the place myself it does work.
Example below: note that the fields {Country} and {City} or not added to the file name, even though they are in the metadata field.Don't use realtive paths, at least not without making them absolute yourself.
Java gives you the ability to figure out the path from which the executing program was loaded. Use that, together with your relative path, to construct an absolute path. -

Format changing when IDCS3 file exported to PDF
I am using Acrobat 8 version 8.1.2, and InDesign version 5.0.2.
I am noticing a very specific problem when exporting some files to PDF from InDesign.
We often have a format where we have a numbered list of right-aligned number, followed by some text, a leader line, and then another number at the end of the line. This is set up with a left indent and a first line left indent (rather than using the numbered list options, we are required to do it this way where I work), and then the necessary tabs later in the lines.
I am finding since we switched to IDCS3, that when I export to PDF, lines containing this format change in the PDF. The text that appears after the number in the front of the line is pushed over on top of the leader line, leaving a huge white space. On rarer occasions, it will move things in lines that have no indents, but contain tabs that aren't being used.
I have been able to get the files to export correctly by removing the left indent and first-line left indent and using tabs instead (or by removing unused tabs). But we have hundreds of files set up in this manner so going in and changing how they are all set up is problematic to say the least. Many of these are also multi-line and not using the indents means we have to manually tab lines over.
Is this a known issue? Does anyone know why this might happen and how I can prevent it?
I tried posting in the Acrobat forums and it was suggested since it's an export issue that I might get more help from the InDesign folks.Given that the file is being exported to PDF and not going via a driver route, there really is no reason why changing the default printer should make a difference whatsoever in this particular case. Changing default drivers in Microsoft Office applications, yes, but for this situation, no. And since Acrobat doesn't change formatting, the issue sounds like some problem associated with InDesign. Please report this problem directly to Adobe Tech Support and be prepared to send them sample files. Thanks!

Can you rename files in Bridge and relink in InDesign automatically?
I have a 250+ page InDesign file with 800+ links to images.
The problem I'm having is the images have French file names. I want to remove the French text and rename the images to English.
If I rename the images in Adobe Bridge will the Indesign links remain?
I'm using CS5.5Unfortunately no.
But fortunately there's a script!

FM 10 xref format changes when updating file
I'm authoring in structured FM 10 using a DITA 1.2 application on Windows 7, but working with FM documents rather than XML files. I was having problems updating cross-references in my existing (structured FM 7.2) files after upgrading to FM 10 -- FM was changing all xref formats to DITA Default Format, which blew away all of my defined formats. So I opened one of the standard structured templates included with FM 10 (DITA_1.2/app/technicalContent/template/topic.template.fm), thinking that I set up my structured application incorrectly.
I know I must be missing something simple, but this is what happens when I create and update a cross-reference:
Using the unmodified structured template and the unmodified DITA 1.2 application that comes with FM 10, add an fm-xref element.
Using the DITA-Cross-Reference dialog box, create the xref (doesn't matter if it's an internal or external xref).
Select See_Title_and_Page xref format. Xref looks fine in the source document.
Select Edit > Update Reference, and select All Cross-References.
When I click Update, FM updates the xref but changes the xref format to DITA Default Format. I can see that the See_Title_and_Page format included in the template uses the <$paratext> building block instead of <$elemtext>, but I can't delete or modify this format and I can't create a new xref format, either, since the DITA Cross-Reference dialog box doesn't give me those options.
However, if I create a new FM book and add this file to it, and then select Edit > Update Book, and select All Cross-References, FM updates the xref and maintains the xref format I chose.
So, why does updating a file remove the selected formats from all xrefs and replace them with DITA Default Format, while updating a book does what I'd expect (and what FM has always done)? And why can't I modify an xref format using the template/DITA 1.2 application that comes with FM10?
Thanks for any assistance.
--SteveHi Saurabh,
Thanks for the reply. I guess it's reassuring to know that the automatic reformatting of xrefs by FM isn't due to something I've overlooked. As long as there's a workaround, I'll keep updating xrefs from a book. Not a great workflow, but it won't block our writing for now.
On the other issue: Thanks, I do know how to edit xref formats and import them from a template. My confusion, however, stems from two things:
I can't edit xref formats in the DITA Cross-Reference dialog box, which is all you see if you're using the DITA 1.2 template that ships with FM 10. I can edit the formats from the Cross-Reference dialog box, but I can't figure out how to access that when using Adobe's template. Adding a new xref or selected an existing one just activates the DITA dialog box, which doesn't have an Edit Format option (shouldn't it? wouldn't you want to be able to edit those formats? or do you always have to do that from one of the application files?).
The DITA Default Format won't go away. In my own docs (DITA 1.1 FM files), I can get to the Cross-Reference dialog box and edit xref formats. If I delete the DITA Default Format, save the file, close it, and then reopen it, the unwanted DITA Default Format is back. I can reapply the formats and element defintitions from the template as much as I like, but any time the file is reopened the deleted format reappears. It won't die, and I have no idea where it's coming from (definitely not the template or the EDD, which I've checked and reimported). Is this some odd default behavior of ditafm_app.dll?
Again, thanks for responding.

Date on photo changes when transferring file
Hello
I have photos in my iphoto library and when I transfer the photo to my desktop it changes the date to some random date. It does not do this with all photos, just some of them. I shoot RAW if this makes a difference and the date on my computer is correctly set.

Hey there...
When you import your photos, the iphoto library keeps the actual date of the photo taken. When you import movie files, the date when you import it is kept, not the actual movie recorded date.
I've not handled RAW files, so I have no idea whatsoever.
Hope this helps. If it doesn't, sorry!

Can't override AI10 when opening files from Bridge or Explorer.
I have Illustrator 10 installed (on windows 7) because I need to work with .cgm files. The problem is that I can't double click to open .ai files in my newer Illustrator CC, they always try to open in AI10. Yes, I've changed the file type association in the windows control panel. It is set to Illustrator CC, but it still opens in AI10. I have to go to AICC every time and use the File > Open menu. I am always forgetting and double clicking files, then I have to wait for AI10 to open, then close it down. Other than uninstalling AI10, I can't figure out how to fix this.
Okay, I think I've finally figured this out. I had to reset the file associations inside the Bridge Preferences. All it was offering me was Illustrator as an option. I had to drill down into the programs to the Illustrator CC.exe file. Why wouldn't that show up as a option in the first place? Anyway it seems to be working now.

Icon doesn't change when copying file
Is there any reason that when I copy a file (.png in this case) to change an icon it doesn't work but when I did it by dragging the picture itself from the website it worked?
you need to make sure you clicked on the icon before copying or pasting it. it should have a blue halo/drop shadow/highlight around it.

Azure Website restarts due to file change when no file has been changed
Hello,
I have a paid subscription site running at LMFitInc.azurewebsites.net. The site seems to randomly restart throughout the day with no obvious reason. Logs (below) indicate that this is in response to a file change though I'm not changing any files & can't
find anything changed searching by date.
Any thoughts?

Thanks,
GeoffThanks Aram, I agree that it looks like a full deployment, however I'm sure I'm not deploying anything. I also filtered the files by date to look for anything that might be changing without my knowledge but came up dry.
I'm in the process of setting this up on a VM where I've got full IIS access with the hope of getting more information.
