Automatic download with Bridge in Vista

I recently upgraded to Windows Vista and now I can't find how to set Bridge to automatically download photos from the CF card once inserted in the card reader. With XP this happened automatically after I installed Photoshop but not so under Vista. I have an option to set a default program to autorun when you insert a CD or other media with pictures on it but the only choices I get are (translated from Dutch): "Import photos with Windows", "Display photos with Windows", "Open folder and display files with Windows Explorer", "Take no action". No Adobe Bridge and I can't find any option to add other programs.
Anyone knows how to do this?
Thanks.

According to a technote on Adobe support: "Bridge and Photoshop Elements are 32-bit applications. When the 64-bit editions of Windows XP and Windows Vista detect that a new device or media has been connected, they do not recognize 32-bit applications as programs that can be used to download or manage the content"
Too bad :( I'll have to download manually with Bridge then because I'm running Vista 64 bit here.

    Downloading with Bridge CS5
    When I download from my SD card with Bridge, it only stores 9 images into a folder (date named), so I get several folders created all with just 9 images in them!
    How do I reset this to only have one folder created with ALL images in it?

    Are you by any chance taking exactly just 9 shots per day?   Are folders created by date?
    Exactly what version of CS5 are you running? CS5 12.what?
    What's the exact version of your OS?
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

  • Automatic downloads with multiple accounts

    My wife and I share a MacBook Pro and we each have our own user accounts on the computer. After I set that up, I can no longer enable automatic downloads in iTunes. It gives me an error saying that the computer is already associated with an Apple ID and I can only auto-download with one apple ID every 90 days. This doesn't make sense to me since we each have our own accounts like I mentioned. We also have separate iTunes accounts. This is really annoying because a big selling point of iCloud is that if I buy something on my iPhone that it will show up on my iPad and MBP.

    Hi, I also have a German and American account, for many reasons. I hope Apple re-thinks this quickly, as I know many people in my same situation. I am American but live in Germany because I am part of the US Forces still here. I am also married to a German. We love our iPhone and iPad, but can only afford 1 of each and share their use! So you can probably understand why we have the two accounts, hope Apple can also, and not think just about the $$! There are many Apps that I use that are only available in one store or the other and not both. Example, here, our cell provider is A German firm, naturally, they provide many Apps with services for free or at reduced fees, navigation for one example. But, of course, none of these are in the American Store! So, what Apple is trying to tell all those Americans who work for the Armed Forces or serve their Country all over the world is, if you want to use your US account and use local country Apps and services from an account where you are serving you MUST buy a 2nd device for that account or wait 90 days every time you need to access the other account?! Come on Apple, I know they have legal copyright issues to deal with and control, but hey, Steve, we live in a Global World now, of all companies, I would think that Apple would be the first to shed some of the regional limitations and think Global for their customers!

  • Why is google automatically downloaded with flashplayer?

    When downloading Flashplayer it automatically downloaded the Google taskbar and Google Chrome.  I do NOT want these on my computer and want to know why you are forcing them on me.  No option to not download was given.

    To prevent this, use the direct links for Internet Explorer or direct links for other browsers to download Flash Player installer.
    The Mac OS X installer is here
    Bookmark those for future use, as Adobe updates the installers at those links when they are released.

  • Reader 9.2.0 Problem Downloading with Firefox and Vista

    After upgrading my adobe reader to 9.2.0 I have been unable to download the weekly pdf report from my US News and World Report site which worked fine before the upgrade. I am using Firefox on a home VISTA premium platform. Strangely, I can download using internet explorer 8 on the computer. I have been unable to resolve on the Firefox help forum. Thanks!

    By chance I've found a workaround.
    I noticed that the same bug occurred in Reader 8, so used the workaround recommended for that release.
    I assigned a local printer as the default Windows printer. Reader then allows me to print so I can choose which printer (remote) on which to print.
    However, it's poor that Adobe haven't yet fixed in Reader 9.0 a bug that was reported in Reader 8.

  • HT201272 "Automatic Downloads" with audio books?

    I cannot get an audio book I purchased through iTunes on my laptop onto my iPhone at all.  Any suggestions?

    Audiobooks are not mentioned as being part of icloud.
    Pat is referring to ibooks which are NOT audiobooks.   This is how you redownload purchases which are part of icloud.  As I said earlier, audiobooks are not mentioned as part of icloud.  It is your responsibility to backup your purchases.

  • Video not automatically downloading in Photo Dowloader

    With my past Canon cameras, including the Canon 880IS, the videos taken with the camera would automatically download with the Photo Downloader of Photoshop Elements 6.0 without any special settings.  My new cameras, Canon D10 and Canon 7D, the videos do not download.  Is there a special setting I should be using?  The first time I tried to download photos and video from the Canon 7D, my catalog crashed with a fatal error and had to be restored because it could not be automatically repaired in the Catalog dialog box.  I'm worried to try it again.  Are there file size issues that could cause it not to download?

    Hi,
    Can you please tell which version are you using and on which platform? Please Also tell, if the video files are visible in the advanced dialog of downloader?
    Thanks/Tarun

  • Automatic downloads for music on ipod

    what does the box mean when it says " this device is already associated with an apple id. if you turn on automatic downloads with your apple id, you cannot auto download or download past purchases with a different apple id

    Exactly what it says. You can only change the automatic downloads for a single ID on a device every 90 days.

    I have Photo Stream enabled with Automatic downloads enabled. Yet when I try to join a Photo stream I get referred to The I Cloud start support page - this happens for both my Mac and my IPad. What can I do?

    The following is from this Apple Document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later

  • I'm trying to turn on automatic downloads, but I see an alert that says 'This device is already associated with an apple ID.'

    I recently bought a new ipod 4 gen 32 G. I had an 8 g .I'm trying to turn on automatic downloads so when I buy a song from Itunes it automatically downloads without plugging it into computer to sync.  When I turn on Auto Downloads, It say...This device is already Associated with an apple ID You can auto-download purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 30 days. When I click OK it turns th downloads off..Can someone help me? I've returned the 8g to regular factory settings as I'm giving it to a friend.

  • Automatic Downloads and Strange Error Message: "You can auto-download purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days"

    Hi gang-
    Yesterday I noticed that iTunes on my iMac had not auto-downloaded several new songs that I had recently purchased on my iPhone.    In iTunes Preferences, under Store -> Automatic Downloads, I always have Music selected so all songs purchased from any device using my Apple ID normally download automatically.
    To troubleshoot this, I double-checked my Preferences and sure enough, Music was de-selected under Automatic Downloads.   I then Selected it and clicked OK.   Here's where it gets weird and I get this error message:
    This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.  You can auto-download purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 84 days.
    I read and re-read this message and none of it seems to apply to me.   I have only one Apple ID.   I am currently logged in with iTunes to that one Apple ID.   All my iTunes Music ever has been purchased with that one Apple ID.   I am not trying to associate this computer or any other with a different Apple ID.
    I logged iTunes out and then back in again and tried all the above- but same error message.
    So, as it is now, I am unable to turn on Automatic Downloads in iTunes.   
    Anyone know what the heck is going on?
    Thanks!
    Dave

    Hey gang-
    Okay, this gets more and more bizarre.   I sent a support email to Apple and basically they said  "...it seems that someone else associated your Mac with their Apple ID. That's the reason your purchases won't download."
    Yikes!   My wife and I live alone- and we have exactly one and only one Apple ID.    Would somebody have needed physical access to my iMac to do that?
    Support then said "You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer."
    Okay- so I logged into My Account in iTunes.   On the list of associated devices, my own iMac is NOT on that list.   But I am logged in under the same Apple ID I've had for years on that iMac.
    So my big question right now is...if my iMac (that I've owned for 5 years) has somehow been dis-associated from my Apple ID, how do I find out what Apple ID it is associated with?
    Thanks gang for trying to help me unravel a mystery.
    Dave
    PS- Here's an Apple Tech article on iTunes associations, but it doesn't really go beyond what we've discussed above:

  • Rename with bridge photo downloader

    If images are being downloaded by Bridge downloader, possibly from a camera CF card, the name assignment should include the ability to name a file with actual time of shooting such as YYYYMMDDHHMMSSms. The time components should be accurate to the millisecond (or what ever is the time granularity of the camera time function).
    For example, if a photo session is shot with multiple cameras (a number of photographers are photographing a sporting event, a single photographer is shooting a dance production or a wedding using two or more cameras, etc), the ability to have a full accurate time of shooting allows all images taken from all cameras to be put into time sequence.
    With the present set of rename options, Bridge download becomes "almost useless" when multiple cameras are used. Other downloaders must be chosen.

    Thanks for the idea. I tried that but it didn't work. The exact same problem happened again with what appears to be the same crash log: Thread 18 Crashing (see below for that specific section)
    Additionally now in the last week I am experiencing Bridge crashing 1-3x/day regardless of the Photo Downloader.
    Adobe, please advise.
    Thanks

  • Problem using Bridge Photo Downloader with new camera

    I have the new Olympus E5. I can't use the Photo Downloader in Bridge for RAW files. It doesn't convert the ORF ( RAW ) files to dng.

    No, in the last several versions of PSE for mac prior to PSE 9, Adobe Bridge was included for keywording and such. The version of bridge that ships with the big Creative Suite programs includes the full Adobe Raw Converter, the one you get with full Photoshop. Elements has always had a somewhat cut down version of the Adobe raw converter--same basic plug-in, but doesn't have all the features enabled.
    In PSE 8, for some reason the full features were not disabled in the version of bridge that ships with PSE (prior to that opening a file into the bridge converter showed you exactly the same features you got if you just opened a raw file directly into the PSE Editor's version of the converter). However, that was just a one-time thing. (I'm guessing they ran out of time or something).
    But all versions of Elements include their own raw converter, with the smaller feature set, whether or not you use Bridge or Organizer. If you don't use bridge or organizer, you can open a raw file into the Elements editor by using File>Open, and that will bring up the PSE converter window.
    In PSE 9, Adobe has stopped shipping any version of bridge, and now includes a version of the Organizer that windows PSE users have been getting. But you can still use bridge if you have it from PSE 8, only you can't update it anymore. You can still update the raw converter in PSE itself.
