Bridge 2 monitors

I should know this but I don't does the bridge work with 2 monitors like photoshop? If so How?

Hi
I am using two monitors with Bridge, its BRILLIANT.... however I did not need to do anything special to set it up to work with adobe products.. just set up the PC to work with both and drag and drop accross the screens. Its so good....
However I do have trouble with Adobe connect is simply is not working for me - although I am not yet sure if that has anything to do with two screen use or not?
Hope this did not muddy your water further.

  • Bridge Dual Monitors CS3 Workspace Questions

    I can't seem to figure out a few things regarding running dual monitors. Run windows XP, have the latest bridge/cs 3 updates. Sometimes everything works fine, other times it doesn't.
    I like having my preview pane on monitor #1, directly in front of me. I also like opening the selected photo in RAW from monitor #1 and having the RAW window come up on monitor #1.
    Most often the RAW window will open up on Monitor #2, which I do not want to happen. On Monitor #2, I have my content pane and my metadata & folders showing.
    I've reversed 1:2 and 2:2 and can't get it to work right either. Could someone provide some guidance? Been searching options and can't figure it out.
    Another topic that is not related to dual montiors. Sometimes my preview tab, will not show the selected photo in it. I usually reset Bridge on start up and it'll be there...but sometimes the photo disappears. The tab will still be there. Any help/ideas would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I discovered that with dual monitors if the window is maximized it has no preview image (default workspace), just a green pane. If you use the double headed arrow and pull back the dividing line between thumb/preview pane or preview/metadata pane it revels dozens of "copies" of underneath. The preview will only show up when the thumb window pane is moved quite a ways to the left. It is almost like the real workspace is on the bottom and the others are on top.
    The solution I have found is to click RESTORE DOWN (middle window icon) and then everything works correctly, even if I enlarge the window to full monitor. If I maximize it reverts again. Am using Vista and 2 monitors. Can work with this now that I know what to do, but a little puzzling. For anyone not seeing a preview image, or metadata, might be worth while to see if maximize window mode is the problem.
    Perhaps you could experiment with maximize - restore down and see if it helps with your problem.
    Probably get a better response if you post questions in Bridge question forum rather than feature forum.

  • Essbase Analytical Link Bridge Status Monitoring

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there any way for monitoring EAL bridge and set up an alert whenever it goes down due to bridge failure.
    Thanks,
    Arvind.

    Hi,
    Are you connecting with the admin user ? if not make sure you have necessary access rights.
    Also try to connect on the sql server with the eal login (in my case "epmdb") and check if you can open the tables.

  • Bridge CS3 & ACR with dual monitors

    Question: In a dual-monitor Windows XP setup, how do I control which monitor ACR opens on when opened from Bridge?
    Background: In my workflow, I use Bridge to open small batches of DNGs in ACR. What I want is to have Bridge on monitor #2 (uncalibrated), but have ACR open on monitor #1 (calibrated). At first I had Bridge opening on #1 and couldn't get ACR to open on #2. Then I figured out how to move ACR to #2, but now it always opens on #2, regardless of where Bridge is. How to fix?
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Okay, I think I've figured out how this works, although (1) the way it appears to function is exactly opposite to how I think it should function, and (2) I still can't figure out how to fix it.
    If I open ACR from Bridge on the primary monitor (#1 for short, as designated in Windows XP), ACR will open on the primary monitor by default. If I leave Bridge on the primary monitor but move ACR to the secondary monitor (#2 for short), ACR will continue to open on #2. If, however, I move Bridge to #2, there is no way to get ACR to open on #1; no matter what I do, it will always open on #2. If I then move Bridge back to #1, ACR might open on either monitor. If it continues then to open on #2 the only way to force it to move back to #1 is to open Photoshop on #1 and then open ACR from Photoshop.
    First of all, it's stupid that I can't tell ACR to open wherever I want it to. But it is particularly stupid that one cannot make ACR open on #1 unless Bridge is also open on #1. The reason is that Windows XP only has native support for color calibration on the primary monitor (#1). If I'm using Bridge and ACR next to each other, I naturally care more about color calibration in ACR, where I'm actually editing photos, than I do in Bridge. Yet it is impossible to get ACR to open on the calibrated monitor! This can only be described as a bug, albeit one that won't get fixed due to the age of XP and CS3.
    (Yes, I am aware that Microsoft makes a control-panel plugin that supposedly allows calibration of both monitors, but I have been unable to get it to work correctly. By all accounts it is somewhat fragile, doesn't offer support for all dual-monitor graphics cards, there isn't a list of cards it does and doesn't support, and Microsoft doesn't even offer support for the plugin. Way to go, Microsoft.)

  • PS 6 W7 64 - Bridge when I batch rename both monitors turn into film strip with no way to get back. please help me

    Is there something I am missing about settings with a second monitor? When I batch rename in bridge both monitors (or if I shut one, the remaining one) go into uge vertical images that stream horizontally, with no way to get back to grid or normal view even though essentials is active.

    Try a reset (click on that down pointing arrow) and also  if you have a Mac, toggle the green resize button. It usually forces Bridge to resize to the screen.
    If worse comes to worse, reset Bridge's Preferences as explained here: Troubleshoot errors, freezes | Adobe Bridge | Windows, Mac OS
    When I use a external larger monitor, I select just that monitor.

  • Save Dual Monitor Setup - Bridge CS5?

    I open Bridge on monitor 1. I do a new synchronized window and move the new window to monitor 2. Monitor 1 has my normal workspace definition. I modify the Bridge window on monitor 2 to only have a Content/Preview panel. Thus, when I select a thumbnail on monitor 1 it is shown in the Preview panel on monitor 2. Just what I want.
    How can I configure Bridge to remember this dual monitor setup? As it is now, I have to reconfigure the dual monitor each time I restart.
    Thanks

    Yes.
    Window > New Synchronized Window
    With the new window on top, choose the Window menu, remove all Panels except the Preview window
    Move Content panel over so it is no longer visible and only Preview window is visible
    (Click on thumbnail on monitor 1 and it is shown in Preview mode in Window 2 -- great, just what I want)
    At this point, the Bridge workspace on both monitors is "Mike's Workspace"
    I can save the Monitor 2 workspace to Mike's Dual Workspace.
    Close Bridge on Monitor 2
    Close Bridge on Monitor 1
    Restart Bridge
    Monitor 1 opens as Mike's Dual Workspace, but it is the same as Mike's Workspace
    Change workspace on Monitor 1 to Mike's Workspace - it has the correct configuration.
    Window > New Synchronized Window and start the configuration as before.
    Am I missing something?

  • Color Management in Bridge CS6

    Hello,
    I'm having a strange color management issue in Bridge (64 bit). Essentially, Bridge is not displaying images in either the thumbnails or preview pane using the correct color profile.
    Background: I'm on Windows using a dual monitor setup (both independantly calibrated) but I have the issue even when I use only one monitor. Photoshop has no issues with color settings. I've tried resetting all settings (hitting Ctrl as Bridge starts). I've tried purging my cache and having Bridge generate monitor-size previews.
    The weirdest part is when I start Bridge, for a split second images appear to be in the correct profile, and then Bridge adjusts everything to the wrong color profile.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!

    about A:
    I don't get that, I have a custom made monitor profile based on D65 and with or without this profile the only difference one would spot would be in the total picture, this screenshot shows what I see and that is not as much difference between the Bridge thumb and preview (and in the metadata placard you can see they are 16 bit ProPhoto with on top of it the floating PS panel with the same image. It is one picture of one screen, without my monitor profile (and without knowing what happens during the adding process to the Adobe site) or with, the difference between both applications would not change, only the total picture. (or I really don't understand anything anymore about color management )
    The first threshold question is whether you're using a wide gamut monitor. I'm going to assume the answer is yes. The reason it's essential to embed your monitor profile in your screenshot is if you do not have a wide gamut monitor, someone looking at your image who does will be able to tell since the gamut will be smaller than it should be. If you are not using a wide gamut monitor, that would explain why you cannot see the difference. Additionally, whether you have a wide-gamut monitor or not, if you do not embed a profile, the untagged image will appear way oversaturated when brought into Photoshop (this is happening for me) unless I can guess the approximate color space of your monitor.
    Admittedly, if you are using a wide-gamut monitor, then although the image will be way oversatured without a profile (until I assign one), both the Photoshop portion and Bridge portion should be way oversatured by the same amount. However it's not particularly helpful to use guesswork and approximation when trying to narrow down a problem like this. You say "this screenshot shows what I see," but you have to keep in mind you are looking at it on your monitor. Even though your screenshot will obviously look right to you on your monitor, someone looking at it on a smaller gamut monitor won't see what you're talking about.
    about B:
    There you have a point but this was a current project at hand and at this moment there is a bit over saturation in the wood. In real life I also almost never have to deal with the bright colors of your example. I don't want to go again messing my workspaces to create a screenshot for the files you provided but I can assure you I have less to none difference between both files in both Bridge and PS, like I never have seen your problem on my current computer (Mac Pro, 2 x 2,4 6 core intel Xeon mid 2012 and a lot of RAM and SSD etc including ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB VRAM running OSX 10.8.3) as well as my former MacPro with same graphic card - and two others - that I used since 2008 during OSX 10.5 to 10.7 with all used versions of CS.
    Yea, I understand why you don't want to mess with your workflow. I wouldn't either if I were in the middle of a project. But (assuming you have a wide-gamut monitor) if you finish a project and do get the chance, I encourage you to try the ProPhotoRGB color patch in Photoshop versus Bridge. When you really stray from sRGB, you, like me and Yammer, should see a major difference. I suppose there's the possibility that the Mac version of Bridge works differently, but that doesn't seem likely. It's possible you've never noticed the difference before because (again, assuming you have a wide-gamut monitor) you've never been looking for it, or you don't shoot many subjects with colors vastly outside sRGB - things like flowers, dyes, clothing, bright lights, etc.
    And as for the quote, I also never make my choices based on colors for DNG in Bridge, in fact, I always shoot with manual WB set to 5500 K, whether in daylight or artificial light, I just don't bother because I want my colors to be adjusted in ACR and refined the way I want them in PS. The plus side of manual WB is that all colors are off in the same way and can be adjusted in the correct direction in one go for a series
    That's an interesting idea and really illustrates the beauty of shooting RAW - tons on flexibility. And in fact, whether you use manual white balance, or don't, with RAW everything can be corrected or adjusted from a certain baseline by the same amount after the fact anyway.

  • Out to TV confusion !!!

    There are some threads about this, but no clear answer has been given.
    I have the new MacBook without Firewire, but with the new Apple MiniDisplay Port.
    I want to use Final Cut Pro and monitor on my TV. I'm edditing DV footage.
    How can I see on my TV what I'm edditing?
    I want to view on my TV the normal image everybody is going to see and not view on the TV as if the TV were another monitor, since (as we all know) using a TV as an external monitor won't give us real colors and full preview.
    Some questions I have are:
    1-Connecting what, using what adaptor/device, doing what can I monitor on a TV?
    2-Can I capture on FCP by connecting a camera via USB2.0?
    3-If I connect a camera via USB, can I use this connection as a bridge to monitor on a TV?
    4-Some people have said that using devices like this http://sewelldirect.com/pc-to-tv.asp I can monitor on a TV by connecting a minidisplayport-to-RGB adaptor to this device and then to the TV, but will this really give me a true TV output or just a converted output?
    5-If definitely I can't get TV out from the MacBook without firewire, is there a way to monitor on another digital monitor with an image I can trust?
    Thanks for any help. Excuse my english.

    How can I see on my TV what I'm editing?
    You can't. Without firewire you cannot get a signal to your TV. Not DV, not HDV...nothing. USB cannot be used for this, and the monitor connection doesn't work with external boxes like the Matrox MXO.
    Sorry, this machine isn't designed for this. Losing firewire on the MacBooks was a boneheaded move, IMHO.
    1-Connecting what, using what adaptor/device, doing what can I monitor on a TV?
    Nothing. Sorry, all devices are designed for firewire and standard DVI out. Your computer has neither.
    2-Can I capture on FCP by connecting a camera via USB2.0?
    Nope. iMovie, Final Cut Pro both need a firewire connection. Neither see USB as a capture path.
    3-If I connect a camera via USB, can I use this connection as a bridge to monitor on a TV?
    Nope. Neither iMovie nor FCP can do this.
    4-Some people have said that using devices like this http://sewelldirect.com/pc-to-tv.asp I can monitor on a TV
    Nope...gotta read what they say about that device:
    "The PC to TV converter simply mirrors your computer's current video signal for output on an additional display, such as a TV, VCR (to record a new high score perhaps?), or any other video display with an S-Video or RCA input."
    5-If definitely I can't get TV out from the MacBook without firewire, is there a way to monitor on another digital monitor with an image I can trust?
    Nope. You can connect one of the new Apple displays to the computer and then use Digital Cinema Desktop, but that is a low res proxy output and VERY unreliable. The new MacBooks are simply not designed for use with FCP, and are not solutions for editing anything you need to capture from tape. Apple designed this computer for capturing from tapeless cameras and delivering to the internet or DVD...period. A rather stupid and boneheaded move on their part IMHO. Many many people still have DV and HDV cameras.
    I don't want to lay blame on you, but a little research into this machine and what it could and couldn't do before you bought it would have been advisable. If you knew all of this information beforehand, I doubt you would have bought this computer.

  • Why are my stills blurry?

    Please help wise ones. I have a problem in my timeline, after I render my project (1 hour long), a lot of stills blurred or jumped, I have to find the original still, copy & then do a paste attributes to the ones that are in the timeline. Not all stills are blurred after rendering, please help me b/c I can't always see the flawed file until I watch the output. Has anyone had this problem? I thought it was a QT issue & updated, not it. The problems are random therefor hard to figure it out. Please help with your thoughts.
    My project is using FCP6.05, I have a macbook pro, 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, and OSX 10.5.6

    In your Stock do you have the explanation why Apple changed the "windows resolution so you could use macbook with an external broadcast"!
    No. I don't know why Apple does what they do.
    MacBook and external broadcast? Not possible, not with HD anyway. DV? Firewire out from computer to camera or DV bridge, to monitor. HD? Broadcast monitoring? Get a professional computer.
    It he posted that he was working in a Macbook, let´s try to help him with other "could be" problems!
    That IS the problem. I just addressed WHY it looks pixelated. Because FCP doesn't present the footage full quality in the Canvas...so you can get more RT and less (none hopefully) dropped frames. Want to know what it REALLY looks like? Need the pro gear and the proper monitoring. Can't even use the MXO on the MacBooks, can you? Or is there some adapter to get DVI out? IF so, that is the solution.

  • CS3 Color Issue-seeing Green

    All my images have a green cast to them in PS CS3 & Bridge
    My monitor is calibrated
    Images are fine in other applications, just not photoshop
    This issue started after a disk crash and was installed on a new hard disk.
    We have uninstalled it once and ran the clean up utility since then.

    HELP!

    Your display profile changed, or you changed the whitepoint on the display.
    Make sure that your display profile actually matches your display, and it should all be good again.

  • Wireless Issue

    Hi, I'm having what is turning out to be a common issue for iPod Touch users after the 3.1.1 update. I have a 1G 32gb iPod Touch that is no longer able to sustain connections to any wireless network since I updated to 3.1.1. I didn't want to post earlier (because I wanted to try all the solutions I have seen posted here and elsewhere first) but I'm hoping the intelligensia here can help me with this problem.
    Wireless issue: When I try to log on to any network with my touch, it will either not connect automatically at all (although it can certainly see the network - the SSID is broadcast at least in my home), or it will automatically appear to be connected, but no data can be downloaded from the network - there is only the "cannot download from server" message (in Mail) and a neverending "connecting..." circle (in Safari and most other apps).
    I have my router running a mixed network, with WPA encryption, with the latest firmware and still nothing but the impression that the touch has detected the network but can't log on. Sometimes there seems to be a short period where it is able to download something (i.e. I will get an email in my inbox that consists of a title only, with the message "content not downloaded from server") but this is fleeting (less than 5-10 seconds at a time).
    I have cycled, restarted, restored and upgraded the firmware on my router (both with and without security) and nothing seems to have helped on this end, and other computers, both Mac and PC, are able to log on to this network.
    I have renewed the lease of the network, reset the network settings, disabled-enabled the WiFi, restored the iPod and performed every trick on the touch that I can think of or read about here. Nothing helps. I am not having the problem in terms of sensing reduced sensitivity to networks that some people here are mentioning, but I am not able to log on to any network I've tried (so far, 3 private, 5 commercial).
    I don't want to assume its some kind of technical problem with update 3.1.1, but that's the only thing I can think of, with all of the similar complaints posted around the net and the fact that this wasn't an issue a few weeks ago.
    Does anyone wiser than I am have any useful suggestions?

    Scott Campbell sounds like they 'said':

  • RAW output to an adobe rgb and srgb look identical in bridge but different in PS on wide gamut monitor.

    Photoshop CS6.  Wide gamut HP LP2475w monitor.  Spider 3 Elite calibrated.  Working space adobe rgb.  When outputting a raw to Adobe RGB jpg it looks a bit whacked with color blotches/jumps in PS.  The sRGB of it does not.  BUT......in bridge they look identical.  The adobe rgb jpg almost acts like viewing an image in a non-color aware browser on a wide gamut monitor.  Like bridge shows it right but photoshop is showing it whacked out.  I can't tell what is lying to me and if there is even a problem with the image.  Here is a half second 2 frame gif alternating between the two from a screen cap.  http://www.extremeinstability.com/hmm.gif  Abrupt blotchy color changes with the adobe rgb when viewed in photoshop.  And again, when you look at the two images in bridge they don't show that, they look identical.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    I guess I now learned that Bridge only generates srgb previews.  So I see them the same in there I guess.  Looks like it comes down to the adobe space and jpg.  Oddly enough an 8 bit adobe tiff covers it fine without breaking up.  Can see the 3 on this gif.  http://www.extremeinstability.com/3.gif 

  • How do I get photos to preview in a second monitor on Bridge CC?

    This question must have been asked here before but I wasn't able to find the answer. Sorry if this is a repeat question...
    How do I get photos to preview in a second monitor on Bridge CC? It's harder to find the answer this than I expected it to be.
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Curt. I wondered if that was it.
    In other CC applications I can detatch the tab and drag it over. I guess it's not that bad to do the stretch, though.
    Thanks again.

  • Bridge slideshow spread across 2 monitors

    Recently Adobe Bridge (CS2, version 1.0.4.6, running on Windows XP) has been giving me problems when running the slide show (via cntl-l or view->slide show). I normally run with two monitors and recently Bridge has been spreading the slide show across both monitors - even if I remove the 2nd monitor with the Windows properties dialog. If I maximize the Bridge window it fully occupies one monitor only as expected; it's just the slide show that spans both monitors. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Bridge with no luck.
    Does Bridge, or Photoshop CS2 keep it's own display properties in a file somewhere or registry entry? Should I uninstall and reinstall all of CS2? Are there any other suggestions?
    Thanks.
    /Mark

    I'm not sure I follow which window you're referring to. The main Bridge window fits completely in one monitor or the other. "Maximize" and "Restore" mode behave just like any other app, on either monitor. (Sanity check: you're referring to right clicking on the title bar and selecting either Maximize or Restore, right?)
    I can arbitrarily change the size of the Bridge frame and the slide show stays the same - across both monitors. It looks even more unusual given that the monitors are not the same size so the two halves of the image don't even line up.
    The slide show has no frame edge that I can find so "Restore" mode doesn't seem to be an option. Is there a handle for the slide show frame hidden somewhere that would let me resize it? Nothing seems to jump out when the cursor is at the edges, and right clicking only advances to the next image.
    Something else occurred to me today that might be related. Until recently I had the wallpaper on the two monitors set to two different images. This is done by manipulating Desktop items as described here: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows/dual-monitors-use-a-different-wallpaper-on-each-de sktop/
    In about the same time frame that Bridge started acting up, my 2nd wallpaper image stopped appearing as it should. The frame it was in seemed to move or shrink unexpectedly. Today I removed the 2nd image/desktop item entirely so that both monitors have the same wall paper (the default case), but that didn't help Bridge.
