Photoshop/bridge tools 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 tolls 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?
Thanks for any help or advice

Ive checked the menu and there all checked.
When I load bridge a window comes up with the following in it.
"There where problems loading a start up script last time bridge was launched. Would you like to load them now?"
If you click no bridge opens and it appears to work but the some features are missing (like the tools for Photoshop) if you click yes a new window opens saying "adobe bridge has stopped working"
Should I try a re install?

  • CS5 Bridge Tools\Photoshop Menu Options aren't working ...

    The CS5 Bridge Tools\Photoshop Menu Options that contain the Image Processing / Photomerge / HDR Pro features that open images from Bridge into Photoshop isn't working ... has this happened to anyone else?  Have you any ideas how to fix this?
    I've cleared cache, windows temp files, and moved the majority of my files to my NAS drive, so the laptop (Window 8 64-bit) is fine ... or so it seems!

    Did you have to uninstall everything and reinstall 2014? CC 2014 was installed automatically. My program files show Ps CC and Ps CC 2014. The automatic installation of 2014 is what caused the problem.

  • Photoshop missing in bridge tools menu since CC2014 upgrade

    Photoshop is missing from the Bridge Tools menu since my CC2014 upgrade.
    How do I get it back?
    Any help?
    I'm dead in the water.
    r.

    Well, My Ps CC is long gone and, apparently, re-installing it does not solve the problem.  I posted another discussion on this issue within this forum entitled "Many communication issues between Photoshop CC 2014 and Bridge since update."  Sorry, had forgotten about this one.  I also tried calling Adobe's Tech support, but they don't seem even to be aware of such issues and were not able to present a solution over the phone.  So far, here is a summary of what is happening with me, which I hope will help pinpoint everyone else's issues:
    1. "Browse in Bridge" from Photoshop will result on CC app window opening asking if I am sure that I want to update "this Bridge version."  I have no idea of what this means.  I already updated Bridge and Photoshop over and over and the issue still occurs.
    2. Bridge tools menu does not have the options to open images in Photoshop any longer.  This is to me the most frustrating issue of all.
    3. Mini Bridge is absent from Ps CC 2014
    So, could Adobe please help here?

  • Photoshop- Batch tool missing in Bridge?

    My Photoshop-> Batch is missing from the bridge tools menu?  And when I go into Photoshop to automate->Batch I can't choose Bridge as a source. It is there, but it is not in bold(i.e.cannot be selected.)
    I have checked my Bridge->Preferences-> Start up script, and all Photoshop options are checked there. I have also tried enabling them agin, and then restarting Bridge, and resetting Bridge Preferences, still  nothing.  I also tried to delete plist files in my library- I just deleted the bridge one- but I'm not sure what that really does, in any case, it didn't work.
    I used to work. Any suggestions??

    But my problem is that in Bridge, all I have under the tools menu is cache, the Photoshop->Batch option isn't there anymore.
    In that case, something is wrong with your install. Only thing I can offer is to do an uninstall and a fresh install.

  • Photoshop missing from bridge tools menu

    I have upgraded from CS2 to CS3 and now cannot access Photoshop automate features via bridge as the Photoshop menu item is missing from the Bridge tools menu. I am running XP professional all programmes are up to date

    All items are checked in Startup Scripts dialog, but when I click on Reveal My Startup Scripts, the folder is blank.
    In /Library/Application Support/Adobe, there is no Startup Scripts CS5 folder.
    I have now uninstalled CS5, used the cleaner and reinstalled it from different download files seven times, so I doubt that's the problem.
    Don't know what to do next.

  • Photoshop not apiring in bridge tools

    Hi and welcome to the forum
    Can you tell us what version of Photoshop you are using, and what operating system?

  • Why with Maverick, in Bridge /tools , photoshop isnt there anymore?

    Why with Maverick, in Bridge /tools, photpshop option is not there anymore ?

    According problem 1: this is not normal behavior and you could try first to restart Bridge holding down option key to reset the preferences.
    But if you experience this also on the server I don't know if this solutions works. And according to problem 2, you should open a case on Adobe support using the little contact button top right on this page, not many users (including me) of this forum are using a server or know a lot about of that workflow :-(
    You could try a forum search also on the word server (Search for forum only works when you are on the mainpage with al the post for Bridge for some strange reason...)

  • Photoshop/Bridge CS4 problem with AFP shares

    Hello,
    I have recently purchased Photoshop CS4 and encountered the following problem: when opening images from a NAS share connected via AFP using File/Open command, Photoshop will correctly display the list of files but Open command in the File open dialog remains disabled after a file is selected from the list.However, I can open the same file by dragging and dropping it from the Finder to the Photoshop Dock icon or later using the Open recent menu command.
    Similar problem is visible in Bridge: it will not display the image thumbnails from any of the subfolders in the network share.
    I am using Leopard with the latest updates, I have a read/write permissions to the network share and Photoshop/Bridge are the only applications that have problems browsing/opening files from the network share. The NAS unit is a Synology DS-107+ with the latest official firmware.
    Futhermore, I have noticed that I can work around the problem by opening the same directory in Finder. After the image thumbnails are visible in Finder, both Photoshop and Bridge will correctly open all files in that directory but opening files from other directories still has the problem.
    Does anyone have any idea on what might be causing this strange problem?

    This is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • Creative cloud photoshop blur tool not work as it should be

    creative cloud photoshop blur tool not work as it should be !
    I go to blur a painting i am doing and it does not blur enough and I am using wacom Intuos 5 med pen tablet.
    and I even set the tablets sensitivty for pressure lower then default and still not getting the blur tool to do its job.
    I even adjusted the brush settings too to be able to blur even more on hard settings, still nothing.
    at least it not bluring enough to see any major changes.
    the only way i can blur anything is by using the fliters blur or the brushes ( mixer brush ) settings to mix colors and do it that way.
    (note) I will not post my systems specs sorry I don't do that and even the tech from adobe said I do not have to. and so I wont !
    just need advise not to share system specs.
    and thats what this forums board is for getting advice and read what others say about the issue at hand.
    it's not to post or share system specs  !!!
    so with that out of the way I need advice only please ?

    Hi,
    It might be your image is too big in terms of pixel dimensions for the blur tool to work well.
    If you zoom to 100% do you see any change when using the blur tool?
    What are the pixel dimensions of the image?
    (Image>Image Size)
    If you try a small image, does the blur tool work?
    What about when you use the mouse instead of your tablet?
    Can you at least tell us what operating system and version of photoshop your using?

  • Photos look awful in Photoshop & Bridge but fine in all other programs; how can i fix this?

    I just got a new windows 7 64-bit laptop (Sony Vaio vpcf226fm/b) and installed photoshop cs5 extended on it and began to look through some of my photos with Bridge and notied that they were all very washed out and desaturated.  In addition, certain parts of some of the pictures were very low-resolution...I'm not exactly sure how to describe it, but darker parts of the photos would have the same sort of effect you get when saving an gif image at very low quality.  Id take a screenshot but unfortunately am not at home right now.  Anyway, I thought the laptop might be messed up but the same pictures look fine when viewed in any other program...its just photoshop and bridge that they appear so poorly in.  I messed around with the color settings but couldn't make much progress...finally the only thing that I found to work was, with an image open, to go to View - Proof Colors and that would make the photo appear the same as in the rest of the programs, without the washed out/desaturated look and without the lo-resolution areas.  I can't find a way to make that stick, though, or a way to apply it to Bridge.
    So what can I do?  And what's likely to be causing this in the first place?

    Alright, I'm back home now.
    Here's what I mean about the major difference in saturation...the top photo is a screenshot from Canon's Zoombrowser software and the bottom photo is a screenshot of the same photo in Adobe Bridge CS5:
    As you can see, there's also a greyish/bluish tint when viewed with Photoshop/Bridge as well.
    And here's what I mean about parts of some of the photos being very low-resolution...you can see it especially well in this underexposed photo (the lower left and right corners and the edges of the clouds), again Zoombrowser on top and Bridge on the bottom:
    What are your Edit > Color Settings? (A screenshot might be more convenient than typing it up.)
    Have the images been saved with the ICC-Profiles embedded or not?
    Here's a screenshot of the color settings:
    Also, the images haven't been saved by anything else before, they're straight off the camera, unedited.
    How have you calibrated your display? And have you changed your display controls since it was calibrated?
    Basically, this is a symptom of your display profile not matching your display, and it'll only affect color managed applications that rely on the display profile.
    I haven't calibrated the display and wasn't really planning to since it's a laptop and is going to be used mainly for photo and video viewing rather than editing; my desktop is what I do almost all my editing work with, but since this laptop is new and much faster I was planning on using it to sort through and organize all my hundreds of thousands of photos, then transfer that selection to my desktop for post-processing.  However, it's still important that I have a fairly accurate display on the laptop since I don't want to delete something that looks bad if it turns out that it only looked bad because of the laptop's display.
    I put the new laptop next to my desktop's monitor and then borrowed two other laptops and put those on the same table too and had all four computers display the same image; the laptop was clearly the odd one out both when viewing the image in Photoshop as well as when viewing it in Zoombrowser.  In Zoombrowser it was far more bright and saturated than the other 3 displays and in Photoshop it was far less saturated than the other 3, plus it had low-resolution areas like in the second screenshot whereas the other 3 did not...so I'm not sure what to do now.  The non-color managed photos are apparently being displayed inaccurately by being overly bright and saturated and the color-managed photos are being displayed inaccurately  by being too desaturated plus having lo-res areas.  Any help?

  • Photoshop Bridge always crashes during a copy process.

    While moving a folder with Photoshop Bridge the application crashed and the folder has disappeared on my disk.
    Why dose Photoshop Bridge always stalls while moving and copying files or folders? What's the background and the solution to prevent this?
    Is there a solution to recover the files. Standard recovery software dose not work.

    Hi together,
    "loosing" the files was my mistake. I have took some time for investigations. I don't know why but I moved the two folders to my C: disk into my personal picture folder. The biggest mistake was that I have not searched on my C: disk. I searched on every disk in my PC by I missed searching on C:. Sorry for any confusion regarding this matter. By the way, I am happy that my pictures didn't get lost.
    Any way, I am still facing the main failure : Bridge always crashes after I am moving or copying files, even by using drag and drop.
    I have now completely updated my PC to exclude any driver bugs (SATA, video card, chipset, LAN, USB, audio, motherboard bios). I have also installed a new data disk. Please hold in mind, my PC is actually running very stable. There is no issues with any other software.
    At the end the situation has not changed ... Bridge always crashes after moving or copying files.
    Any ideas what I can change to get rid of this problem ?
