Adobe Bridge to CS4 Batch Problem

I hope this is the correct forum for this post as I don't know if its a Bridge or CS4 problem.
If I carry out various adjustments in ACR from within bridge, then select a number of the adjusted files and run the CS4 Batch from within Bridge. (I.e. Tools|PhotoShop|Batch...) I'm given the option of the action to run and each file is loaded into CS4 and the action runs file.
The problem is that not all the adjustments made are transfered into CS4 - the most obvious one being any crops.
If I open the same files in CS4 - as in File|Open, then all the adjustments are present.
Have I got something set incorrectly or is this a bug?
Thanks
Mark

I've been having similar loss of adjustments...and haven't got a solution. It seems to me the following happens:
If I launch Photoshop CS4 32bit, open Bridge, and start a batch process, the adjustment from the first opened RAW file is used for ALL files being processed.
If I launch Bridge before and start a batch process, Photoshop CS4 64bit is automatically launched and each image is properly processed using each file's settings. Acutally, I'm not 100% sure I ever have this problem with the 64bit Photoshop even when I launch it first.
At first I thought I was losing my mind...some settings are too subtle to see differences when I quickly glance through a bulk group of photos. But lately I have processed some photos as black and white...and you know something is wrong if ALL of your batch processed photos suddenly show up black and white.

Adobe Bridge in CS4

My Adobe Bridge in CS4 stopped working. Is there a way I can repair just the Bridge program without uninstalling the whole suite. I have tried uninstalling the whole CS4 but I get messages that programs are running and need to stop running before I can uninstall and I can not find how to stop those programs. Thanks. Scruffyy

Create document from template without launching Adobe Bridge (InDesign CS4)

When I select "New Document from Template... while using InDesign CS4, Adobe Bridge launches instead of a search menu.
It's much harder for me to navigate through Bridge than it is with a standard New menu. How can I get InDesign NOT to launch Bridge when this happens?

Just use File > Open... and navigate to the template you want to use.

Adobe Bridge CS6 on Mac problem

I cannot get Adobe Bridge CS6 to run on my Mac. Just bought Photoshop CS6 and downloaded from adobe.

Solved it. Somehow the app itself was in my trash even though the Adobe Bridge CS6 folder was in my Applications folder. Added the app to the folder and was good to go.

Bridge CS4 batch problem

Hi,
I often work from Bridge and use the TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP>BATCH or TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP>LOAD FILES INTO PHOTOSHOP LAYERS
This works well except it has just stopped working for no apparent reason. When I try any of the commands under TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP, photoshop will launch or become active but then just sit there doing nothing.
This has thrown a HUGH spanner in my workflow and is driving me nuts.
I have tried deleting Bridge/photoshop prefs etc but nothing seems to help.
I'm guessing it has something to do with Bridge startup scripts or something.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks.
PS Will post this in the Photoshop forum too as it may be a PS problem.

Sorry, did not read your mail before sending the first answer...
Glad it works again. Remember that OSX is Unix based and does not like
strange caracters in folder and file names, and no slashes or dot's except
the dot before a three caracter file extension.
SOLVED!

CS4- batch problems

Hello,
I was wondering how to get around the CS4 not including the batch action of creating contact sheets for printing multiple pictures at once. I can't upload it to my computer, I'm working on a computer I am not the admin of.
I remember reading something about being able to use Bridge to create the contact sheets but can't remember when or where that was.
Can any one give me instructions to create the sheets in Bridge?
Thank You,
M.J.B

It sounds like—for whatever reason—the application thinks your files are still on your CD.
Check the read/write pemissions on each file. Try moving them to a new folder and then purging the cache for the offending folder(s) through the Tools menu in Bridge.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 Exporting Problem

I recorded a video in 720p, 1280HQ at 30fps, PAL. I then imported these clips onto my pc as MP4 files.
I converted these MP4 files to AVI files using a MPEG4 codec.
The sequence I used of Editing Mode P2 720p 60Hz DVCPROHD.
I need to export my finished project as a Quicktime file using a H.264 codec (16.9) 640x360.
Everytime I try this Adobe Media Encorder encodes the audio only, no video.
Can anyone help?

I can't avoid Quicktime if I can help it at all.
I'm not sure about the PAL thing. My camera has two options for "Video Out!, PAL and NTSC. I'm fairly sure the videos weren't recorded as PAL because they were 30fps.

Help - Adobe Bridge will not delete or reject images (win7)

Hi there everyone, I have a new problem that it seems nobody else has ever had as I can't find any support via google or yahoo.
As a photographer the issue is quote inhibiting.. Basically when I go to delete an image in bridge, it comes up with 'are you sure you want to send this image to the recylce bin' and I click 'yes' then it moves to the next image.. just like its supposed to BUT the image I 'deleted' has not moved from the folder.. it has not gone.
The same happens if I try to 'reject' an image. and yes I have 'show rejected images' selected.. yet just as with delete, when I try to 'reject' an image nothing happens.
* If I hit the delete button, 'do you want to reject this file or delete it?'
If I hit reject OR delete.. nothing happens.
If I hit 'control and delete' it asks me if I am sure I want to delete it.. then the fires remain.
I have a laptop with adobe Bridge on windowsvista, and no problem. My old pc was on windows xp and no problem.
This problem seems to be specific to windows7?
Does Adobe bridge
VERSION CS4
not support win7?

I have had the same problem with Windows 7 64bit until I figured it out about 15 minutes ago. It has to do with file permissions that are set automatically by Windows. If you go to "My Computer", find the root folder that your photos are in, right click on the folder, and select "Properties" from the context menu, under the "General" tab, you will probably see that the "Read Only" box is checked. You will need to uncheck it and select "Apply". When it prompts you, select that you want this applied to all folders below the root photo folder. I assume you have your photos in multiple folders under a main folder. Then select the "Security" tab on the same "Properties" menu. You need to make sure that the users listed (you have to select them one at a time if there are several) have permissions to modify the files. I found this out after I completed the unchecking of the "Read Only" box and went back to Bridge. It didn't work until I went back and made the corrections under the "Security Tab". I hope this explanation isn't too muddy. Feel free to ask me for clarification or, for that matter, I am sure people in the forum can give you more erudite explanations of what I just wrote.

Adobe Bridge permission issues when working with network account

We have some users using Adobe Bridge CS3, CS4 and CS5.
They are using Bridge to browse arround the file server.
I have ACL's so the users can have full access using the Finder, deleting, making folders etc.
Users are logged in to their AD account with their home folder synced to a Mac OS X server 10.6.4.
Unless they are Posix owner of a folder they can't make changes or nothing using Bridge.
If they log in to a local account on a Mac and then manually connect to a share on the same server all is fine with Bridge. They can make folders, delete files etc etc.
Any ideas?
I know Adobe made it easy for themselfs years ago by simply stating it is not supported to work on a server using any Adobe app.

As you said Adobe washed their hands of the matter and as any business customer is almost certainly going to use a server, and as Adobe products are so expensive pretty much only business customers can afford them, this is totally inexcusable.
I had a similar network login related problem with Acrobat Pro in version 7.0 which after +two years+ (no exaggeration) was eventually fixed in Acrobat Pro 8.1. Unfortunately it was then broken again in Acrobat Pro 9.0. Based on my experiences with Acrobat Pro and due to a totally different reason (nothing to to do with using Adobe SW) I found that when I switched from using AFP for network home directories to instead using NFS, my problems with Adobe software and network login accounts went away.
So, it might be worth your thinking about switching to using NFS for home directories as a workaround.
Adobe have become even worse than Microsoft for their software. They use a variety of sucky installers instead of Apple's free Installer (Microsoft have switched to using Apple's Installer), they use product activation, they are even worse than MS Office at working with servers. The only redeeming fact Adobe has is that their Mac and Windows products are mostly equivalent unlike Microsoft who still cripple their Mac software.

Adobe Bridge CS3 windows error

Hi,
When I open Bridge cs3 on its own after a few seconds the window banner comes up. Adobe bridge has encountered a problem and needs to close.We are sorry for any inconvenience. The same happens if I try to open bridge from within Photoshop cs3
I can still work in the programme ok and move the windows error aside, I would like to fix the problem, Tried to debug but the programme just closes.
I use windows xp pro with all the latest updates that are available.
have any others experienced this problem and how to fix it.
Thanking you in advance.

No messageto see, but you can check your Startup Scripts in Bridge preferences. Mine are like this:

Help, which windows Service msut be on to run Adobe Bridge CS3?

hi all,
I'm having trouble opening Adobe Bridge CS3, theres a windows popup that says "Adobe Bridge has encountered a problem and needs to close" error message when i try to start.
I can run the other Adobe Cs3 applications fine, i've been playing around with the disabling of windows services to increase bootup time. i'm afraid i may have accidentally disabled something necessary
pls advice on how to get it working.. i'm on win xp pro sp2
thanks

When you get the "Bridge has encountered an error" popup box, check the technical info hyperlink to see what's the problem. It may point to a DLL that had an error.
From there, check the web to see what that DLL relates to, which may or may not give you a lead. Maybe something that needs to be running in WinXP, maybe a 3rd party product that needs to be fixed/removed/re-installed.
Why do I say this? I had the same issue on Bridge after getting the trial version. Worked for a while, then suddenly stopped working with the same startup dialog box and a quick shutdown. Digging a bit as above pointed to a DLL that was related to Quicktime. I went to the Apple site and downloaded/installed the latest version of Quicktime, and the Brige problem was cured.

Reinstalling Adobe Photoshop nothing has changed. Adobe updates are installed.
The operating system is Windows 7 64-bit.

Hello, wck.org. As it happens, there's no such thing as "Adobe Photoshop CS6 Elements". Do you have Photoshop CS6? I would suggest that you would do better posting in the Bridge forum, since PSE isn't based on CS6 and doesn't include Bridge, so there aren't many people here who can help with problems with Bridge CS6:

Elements 8.0 and Adobe Bridge CS4 problem

I have two problems that appeared in Elemens 8.0 and Adobe Brigde CS4 recently. I'm using the Mac version and a Macbook Pro (4 months old).
I don't really know where to address the problem, but I hope someone in this forum would be able to advice me.
Problem 1
When I browse a RAW-file in Bridge and click the photo to view a 100% zoom and then go back to a normal view, after a few seconds the photo turns alot darker. I've got alot of macro photos of flower and they really loose structure in this process and I would say they get damaged.
On the attached file the left photo is the photo I've viewed and closed and the right one is the original file. Does anyone have an explanation to this problem? I do like to review my files and do a 100% zoom before I choose the best one, but this is not possible in Bridge due to this problem.
Problem 2
After postprocessing my photos in Elements some of them cannot be viewed through Brigde anymore, they get sort of unclear and some show pixels. If I use Finder or other programmes to view the files they look perfectly allright. See examples below, the left one is a screendump from Bridge and the second one is the processed file.

I think this solved the problem, at least some of it.
I deleted the bridge plist file and also ran an update of Bridge CS4. I wasn't sure how to update ACR in bridge, so I didn't do that.
But when I start Bridge now, only some of the files changes color slightly in the thumbnails view. The zoom (loading 100%) also looks different, it zoomed to 800% earlier even though it said 100%, it sort of never ended.
Thank you Barbara, I'm ever so grateful. Now I know where to go if I have more problems
