Starting Bridge in CS6

In CS5 you could start Bridge with a single click on a seperate button, always appearent in the PS workspace (on top) and along with a button to arrange windows.
This bar seems to be gone and now you have to open the file menu or use Mini Bridge. Or is there a faster way?

  • Unable to start Bridge in CS6

    I have just installed CS6 from Disc, this runs fine but i am unable to open Bridge, either from within CS6 or by clicking on the Bridge icon in my taskbar.
    I have read many forum discussions on this subject but have yet to find one with a good working answer to resolve the issue.
    Is there a reason for the prolem Adobe? is there a fix or update? i have already checked that i have the latest updates running in CS6.
    I have checked "task manager" on my windows 7 laptop, and it doesnt show any bridge applications running.
    PLEASE HELP, i dont want to use $600 software which i saved up for only to find that a part of it doesnt work.
    Any suggestions
    Andy

    Hi all,
    Well i tried everything that was suggested, including creating an empty folder in the c:\users\user name\app data\roaming\adobe\bridge cs6. Checking my TEMP folder, uninstalling and running adobe script cleaner, re installing, right clicking the bridge.exe and selecting run in compatability mode, pressing shift, control, alt. Launching bridge from within cs6 or on its own.
    I even stood on my head and tried it , lol.
    But eventually i cracked it................i created a new user account in control panel/user accounts, and it worked. I can now open bridge on its own or within CS6.
    So now i have to move all my hundreds of pictures in LR4 to my new user profile. I intend to keep both profiles and just use the "new" one to run CS6 and work on my pictures.
    So to cut a long story short dont waste time with all the other suggestions (as good as they are), just go straight in and create a new user profile and bingo.........
    i am now so happy after a week of pulling my hair out.
    thanks to all that tried to help me as i am sure you eventually let me down the correct path.........
    Andy a happy cs6 and bridge user

  • I cannot start bridge (Mac 10.8.2) CS6. States "the operation could not be completed"

    I cannot start bridge (Mac 10.8.2) CS6. States "the operation could not be completed" but if I use another user account it works fine. I have uninstalled and re-installed Creative Suite but no differene.
    Are there some logs or cache's that I need to delete or something??
    Please help

    but if I use another user account it works fine. I have uninstalled and re-installed Creative Suite but no differene.
    Are there some logs or cache's that I need to delete or something??
    There are a few things to try but it means the problem is in the account itself. un- and reinstall the Suite will not help if you are not also using the Adobe cleaner tool for this job:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    Check this and read the instructions carefully and most important, have a back up of your important settings (in Photoshop your custom actions, tool presets, brushes and workspaces and for Bridge the custom output templates and keyword list, to name the most important for me).
    If you check your user library (by default hidden per OSX 10.7, use menu Go and press option to reveal this library) Inhere is a folder called Application support and most of those settings are here - User/Library/Application Support/Adobe.
    If you copy this folder to a back up location you can always use this to copy the certain wanted parts to the new installed folder.
    Also use a check and repair permissions on your start up disk with Apple disk utility or third party software like Cocktail.
    And finally since your still on 10.8.2 they just recently released 10.8.3
    Usually the update procedure is using the App Store and check software update. BUt in this case it might be useful to find the 10.8.3 Combo Update on the Apple Support section.
    You have to download this yourself and then it is a normal update procedure. The combo update does a bit more refreshing for the user account then the normal update.
    And if all this is not helping you then you can use the Apple recovery disk to reinstall your system, this is what before was known as an Archive and Install procedure. This creates a new user library while all your custom settings and files are being kept.
    But you have to find info for yourself for this and also make sure you have a proper back up of all your important files, but as a wise person you already had done so I believe ?

  • After reinstallation Bridge in CS6 is suffering from 'Not responding' slowing problems.

    Bridge was working fine before reinstall and PS is still fine. Others with similar issues have not found a solution. Is there one???

    Harry,
    Usually resetting preferences by holding down Ctrl key and start Bridge is all you have to do.
    But the address to remember for keywords, labels, cache and other stuff is Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CSx/Bridge
    THe appdata folder is a hidden file so turn that option on in Window Explorer first.
    Here, that address above looks like this:
    C:\Users\harry\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\
    and under that address there is no mention of "Bridge" whatsoever.
    I failed to mention that I am running the Cloud versions of CS6, perhaps that makes a difference?
    See the screen grab, and note that there is no directory or file with "b r i d g e" in it anywhere under the
    directories shown.
    (Note: The full address appears at the bottom of the image)
    Perhaps you meant here: C:\Users\harry\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS6:

  • Accessing Bridge from CS6

    I just installed CS6 upgrade.  I always started Bridge from CS5 meu bar at the top.  There is no Bridge button/icon to start Bridge from the top menu.  I have to access it through the file menu.  Is there a problem or am I missing an option or preference setting?  In CS4 & 5 it was always on the top menu bar????
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Tim

    Curt,
    Thanks for your reply.  There was a problem with the upgrade install and some items not being installed.  Mini Bridge and a few other components were not installed.  The program would run but wtih no Bridge or Mini Bridge icon.
    I used Adobe Chat and they finally figured it out.  A permission setting was not correct, so after getting that sorted out, we reinstalled and it finished correctly and I found the Bridge Icons.  I do wish I could put it back where I was used to using it, but I guess that is progress.  Or Just want to keep up guessing.
    So there was a problem but now it seems to work fine.
    Thanks again for your reply.
    Tim

  • AE CS5 Won't Start Bridge CS5

    From AE CS5, using the short-cut Ctrl-Alt-Shft-O or the menu item Browse in Bridge doesn't start up Bridge - Bridge CS5 will, however, start via Window 7's Start Menu.
    Is there any Preferences or other switch somewhere for enabling this function? (I can't tell you whether this used to work and is broken, or whether it never worked).

    This is an old thread but I found it because I had the same problem with a newly installed Windows 7 and brand new AE as part of the Master Suite. None of the ways to start Bridge from inside AE worked (Brose in Bridge, Browse Template Projects or Browse Presets). I'm just a new user trying to follow the exercises in Classroom in a Book... not a complete idiot but new to this.
    Anyway, after a LOT of random messing around (grrrr...) I looked in "show hidden icons" at the bottom right of my screen and found to my surprise that the Bridge icon was there even though it wouldn't start from AE. I right clicked on it and unchecked "Start Bridge at login" and oddly it now works perfectly from within After Effects.
    Might help someone else.

  • Updating Bridge for CS6

    Updates are downloading but it asks me to close Bridge (Bridge.exe) but program is not open and running. What to do?

    Bridge may have been launched at system startup.  Check to see if Bridge has been set to start at with system start.  Uncheck Preferences > Advanced > Start Bridge at Login, then reboot computer. 
    Or (windows) open Task Manager, click on the Processes Tab and look for any instance of bridge.exe.  If found, close.
