    If so, go ahead and purge it.

  • CS5 Design Premium Installation Adobe Bridge problem

    When I try and install CS5 Design Premium it fails because it wants me to close Adobe Bridge (which is not open) and won't let me go any further. I tried uninstalling CS3 but it won't let me because it wants me to close Adobe Bridge.
    What Now?

    There shoult be a Bridge icon in the system tray (bottom right corner), close Bridge from here and run the uninstaller or if you don't find this icon you can kill process Bridge.exe but this is not always the best way to overcome a problem. I would recommend closing the application from system tray icon.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Bridge problem, Anyone help?

    Hi
    I am using After Effects and want to add an effect to Text i use the brower presets option which opens Adobe Bridge.  Adobe Bridge normally allow a preview of the effect in the preview section.  However where the preview should be an 'unidentified file' icon appears with the file name eg Character Shuffle In.ffx.
    If anyone can help with this it would be much appreciated.  I am using CS5 on windows 7 64 bit.

  • Problem viewing video-content folders in Adobe Bridge

    Hi there.
    I have problem browsing folders inside Adobe Bridge CS6. When I get into a folder that contains files that are not just images, Adobe Bridge would not responding and would have to be closed. With the folders contains only images I have no freezing issue and Adobe Bridge run very fast and normal. I usually store images and videos inside the same folder on my image-video albums. I am running windows 8.1 on my laptop computer. I have selected several files with diverse formats inside a test folder each time to check if the program is able to represent the folder or not. I choose a mp4 file inside an image album and it did not response. I replaced mp4 with a ts video file, a wma (audio) file and a docx file (Microsoft word) to see if Bridge can show the folder or not.  Only in case of Microsoft word file the program worked but with the mouse indicator twinkling. Is there any solution to the problem? Should I use a newer version of PS to overcome this drawback?
    Thanks for your attention.

    Even the latest versions of Photoshop do not support all types of video files, only some.

  • Problem with Adobe Bridge

    Hello. I have just downloaded a trial version of Adobe Photoshop - to try it out before I buy it. However, I am having problems with not being able to view images and folders I have just created in Adobe Bridge. For example, I've just edited an image but I can only see it in Finder, not in Adobe Bridge. Is this an issue with cached files and is there anything I can do? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks Curt, In Bridge I can see all the images in my Photo library that were created previously (everything using Adobe Lightroom). The issue has only arisen with new images, and folders, that I am creating now - since downloading the trial version of Photoshop. For example, an image I shoot now and save on my hard drive, will not show up in Bridge, nor will a folder I create say for today's images. I can see everything however in the Mac 'Finder' program, so I know they are there.
    I have Adobe Bridge CS6 BUT I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 - both are trial versions. Could this be the issue, I don't think so but I am trying to download the trial of Adobe PS6 as its that version that I would buy. I inadvertently downloaded, and installed, the trial version of PS CS5.

  • Problem loading images in adobe bridge html photo gallery

    Can someone please, please help me!? I can not figure out why the images will not load in my adobe bridge html photo gallery cs5. I am not getting any error messages in Firefox and just the x in internet explorer.
    Here is the link to the gallery page on the site: http://www.irishwetlands.ie/Gallery.html
    I created the gallery as a html file for compatibality reasons due to accesbility issues with flash, and followed the general insturctions. The gallery folder is called wetlandsgallery and it is loading everything style-wise except the images themselves.
    I then made the gallery within an iframe so it would be more similar to the other pages on the site and contain the menu bar - but no change on the lack of images!
    Having looked around online I think it might be something to do with the bin folder?? Does this have some secutity somewhere thats protecting the images? I am also unsure if I filled in the FTP info correctly when creating the site as I was  getting the message "could not connect to FTP server" so I had to copy over the file from my hard drive to the server provider files. All the tutortials say to load your gallery and no mention of what to do when it won't connect to FTP server.
    If you could also tell me how to edit the image sizes that would be a great help too, as any size changes I make to either the bin/large or bin/thumnail images makes no difference in what appears in the preview?
    Help would be very greatfully appreciated as I am pulling my hair out trying to figure it out with no sucess and a possible bald patch!
    Thanks in advance,
    Áine

    Hello Áine,
    1. Is it really necessary to comment out this part in your source code?
    <!--<p><img src="images/GalleryImages/Gallery1_
                    -----stuff del-----
                    Grasshopper" title="Grasshopper" />
                     </p><br />-->
    Using your source code without these things I could see some of your images.
    2. Looking to your website with my IE8 into image 7 (e.g.) I saw this:
    what means there is a reference to a html file, not to an image. ???
    3. Here it becomes interesting (completely contrary to my point 2.), looking for your path:
    http://www.irishwetlands.ie/images/GalleryImages/Gallery1_Selection%20of%20IRWC%20members% 20at%20the%20Gearagh.jpg
    I can see this image in my IE8 (some people in front of a "wetland". But still I've to assume (as Murray already did too), that there is something wrong with your upload and the pathes.
    4. Allow me to make one brief point, we talked about here on several occasions:  please don't use spaces in image, folders or filenames. I'll quote Murray: In general, URL encoding spaces does not lead to problems. ... Whatever the details are, though, using spaces in filenames or paths is a bad practice which WILL lead to problems.
    5. What concerns the image sizes, maybe later (I didn't understand your question correctly I fear). There is still my language barrier, I'm sorry.

    I have problem with adobe bridge cs6. Every time I open it Bridge tells me to Purge Cache. I have CS6 on two computers and it works fine on one of them. I have tried to reinstall it without succeeding to fix the problem. Does anyone have the same problem and a solution to it?

    You must have a Mac.  Try this.
    Quit Bridge, from user library (NOT system and root library) preferences folder find and delete the com.adobe.bridge5.plist file manual. Do this also in same user library caches folder (Caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6) and inhere find and the folder called 'cache' and drag it to the trash.
    restart Bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences, then try again.

  • Problem: Adobe Bridge CC has stopped working

    I run a Windows computer with Windows 8 64bits OS. When I try to start Adobe Bridge CC I get a message "Adobe Bridge CC has stopped working". I Tried to delete preferences (started with ctrl-key) but no cigar. Then I uninstalled Adobe Bridge and reinstalled it, but still no cigar. The same message occurs whenever I try to open a folder with more than a few pictures in it. My only option is "Close program". Someone has a solution?

    I got the reset window but only two options was available (the reset workspace was greyed out). My machine has 16GB ram. The "funny" thing is that suddenly the problem disappeared. I installed Bridge CS6 to circumvent, but one day I started CC again and everything was ok.

  • Adobe Bridge colour management problems

    It appears that jpeg images, converted from Neffs, are not being displayed correctly in Bridge, V2.1.1.9. They display overexposed and open from Bridge into Photoshop CS3 overexposed (faithfully overexposed to Adobe Bridge's representation) and yet shift clicking, or opening in Photoshop CS3 directly from the file the images display correctly. I have tried purging the cache for one of the offending folders but this has not resolved the issue.
    I have also Optioned clicked, on launch, and cleared all prefs - this rectifies the problem but once Adobe Bridge is relaunched the files initially preview correctly but then Bridge decides to amend (I can see this happening) and display overexposed thumbnails once again.
    It appears that all Canon jpegs saved from RAW (.CR2) files are okay. All Nikon NEFF files display correctly, as do Tiffs saved from the NEFFS, the error appears to be restricted to jpeg images saved from NEF files.
    I am using Leopard MacPro 2.8 quad - all Adobe and Apple software up to date, freshly installed and monitor calibrated - correct monitor profile being used, not hosed, as CS3 is good. I am not running the CS3 suite just Bridge, ACR and CS3.
    I didn't suffer from this problem on my previous PowerMac G5 (it recently died hence new MacPro), with the same images, using Tiger, Adobe Bridge and CS3 - could this be one of Leopard's many teething problems?
    I have some low res screen grabs to demonstrate the problem but I am not sure if, and how, I can upload them to this forum?

    PROBLEM SOLVED, sort of any way.
    I figured out my problem and it really has nothing to do with Bridge.
    Basically my D300 along with other digital cameras is adding additional information into the RAW format that Bridge and other programs like Apeture and Lightroom ignore. Stuff like D-Lighting, Color settings and other information that can make the picture look a specific way is simply dropped at import when opening in bridge because those certain settings are specific to Nikons RAW NEF files. Canon does the same thing on their RAW files as well.
    The reason people see the graphics change is because Bridge and other programs usually use the camera's JPG preview with all tweaks to first pull up the thumbnail image in Bridge. When the user clicks on a thumbnail to view the RAW file info or import it into Photoshop, Bridge interprets the RAW info as it can and opens the file. The extra information that helps the photos look a specific way are simply dropped because Bridge does not know how to apply that information.
    So unfortunately for now, I guess I am stuck with Capture NX from Nikon if I really want to see the image as it was taken originally without having to do extra work inside of ACR. And before anyone says it, I know you can build profiles that will import the RAW files the same way every time, but so far I have not been able to tweak the settings where the images look exactly the same to this point. It also looks like Nikons software does a much better job of importing the RAWs with less color noise. Too bad their program is slow and completely crappy to use. Kinda sucks, but I guess that is the name of the game right now.
    Laters,
    Joel

  • Keywords problem using Adobe Bridge CS5

    Hi,
    I've a great many photos in numerous folders all found under one master folder.
    Don't know if this is a flaw in the program or a fault on my part, but what I'm trying to do is keep my keyword list as I continue to add to it...regardless of when I happen to come back to Bridge...'and regardless of what photo I select.
    Problem is, when I close out of Bridge and come back to a particular image, Bridge will show me only a portion of all the keywords I'd entered previously. My workaround involves browsing around to older images which happen to have all the keywords listed. (not meaning that all those keywords are applied to that photo, BUT, they're available). After doing so, the full list of keywords I've added in the past will now be available to any other image I select thereafter.
    I hope I explained that correctly.
    I always figured Adobe Bridge to be pretty intuitive and self explanatory but just now had a look at the CS5 Manual just to be sure I wasn't overlooking something. I couldn't find a solution.
    Would appreciate any help in this regard.
    Thanks in advance.

    Glad the problem is clear now
    When I say at their disposal, I mean keywords from which to be applied to each file. When you create a brand new file, from where would I get the keywords? I certainly don't expect to enter each one individually over and over again for every file. At their disposal in my book would mean: available as a keyword to be applied to the image.
    In the Bridge book this would mean they should be present in the keyword list that shows in the keyword panel. Like Curt stated the keywords that are already saved to a file but are not persistent to the list show in italic, usually at the bottom of the list under 'other keywords'.
    When you need to save keywords to files (whether brand new or old) you only have to select the files you want to have those certain keywords and put a checkmark in front of the keyword from the keyword panel (persistent or italic both work but for the italic to show you have to have files with those keywords in the folder as you have found out yourself by now) and let bridge finish its task to save the data to the files.
    You can create your own keyword list on the go when working and use the menu or right mouse menu in the keyword panel to create a new keyword or nested sub keyword. If you have created this word it will stay present in this list (persistent) but you can also create or edit your list in a simple text editor. A main keyword starts at the beginning of the line, hit return for a new line and 1 x tab to create a sub keyword to nest in the parent. Further nesting in done by return and an extra tab for each nested keyword.
    You can also export the current keyword list using the little menu icon top right to the keyword panel and choose export. Save it with a proper name and open this file in a text editor to get the idea of tabs and lines.
    Sadly enough I don't know a way to export non persistent keywords (italic) but maybe the scripting has a solution for you, if you want to make it persistent to the list you have to do so one by one.
    If you have created your own keyword tree it is also wise to every now and then back it up using the export function. You can also import a new list either to add to your existing words or to clear current and use only the new one.
    btw, going back to what you mentioned originally in as far as bridge needing time to apply a keyword and finish its task...that doesn't even exist on my end. I'm running off 16 gigs of memory and have allotted a huge number for bridge to work with.
    But still, multitasking is not a Bridge gem, if you start assigning keywords from the keywords panel after a few seconds the arrow starts rotating and you have to wait for it being finished, no matter what specs you have (and I use 32 GB RAM on a 12 core processor using SSD…) as soon as the first task starts the keywords that are getting applied need time to save to the files. If you start a new job before it is finished only half of the keywords will be saved.
