Bridge CS3 not showing images

Today Bridge CS3 partially stopped working.  Images do not show up in the content window but this is inconsistent.  It happens with only selected folders.  The data under filters does show the folder data.  If I try to open (clicking on) a non-existent image in the content window, PS or Camera RAW will open for that image.  I have one internal HD and 3 external LaCie drives.  Copy an affected folder to a different HD or to the desktop sometimes works but only intermittantly.  All the permits, etc. for the folders are the same, read/write permission granted and everything else the same.  Sometimes folders that previously opened do not open at a later time.
I've tried restarting the computer and Bridge, no difference.  Two events occurred prior to the problem.  I installed Apple's latest security update and the new Adobe Reader update.  Other than that nothing particular occurred.  I am also using Lightroom2 which is working OK.  The image are in the folders OK, open in PS, etc.  They just don't show up in Bridge.
My computer skills are medium, been user since Photoshop 6.0, taken a number of PS workshops at SFW and Maine, and am competent at using the program.  This is over my head. Help.

Thanks Ramon,
It works but with a few other problems I pretty well sorted through.  It took a couple of Bridge quit and restarts to get Bridge to open the external drives. Now that's OK.  Then it seems at times to hang up trying to generate thumbnails, have to force quit Bridge and try over.  Since Bridge worked fairly well for several years, I'm wondering what happened.  Maybe just one of life's mysteries.
I have CS4 on the shelf, installed it and couldn't get the drivers for my Epson 2200 installed.  The CS4 included generic driver is junk, Epson quit supporting the 2200, so I re-installed CS3 for the time being.

    Breezley,
    OnLocation CS3 used Direct Draw to create the video window.  In Vista, you may have noticed that OnLocation CS3 would disable 'Aero' themed desktops as they did not support Direct Draw.  Windows 7 does not have this functionality, so you must disable the Aero theme manually to see the video in OnLocation CS3.
    To do this, right click on open desktop and choose Personalize.
    This will display available Themes.
    Scroll down to the 'Basic and High Contrast Themes'.
    Choose any one of the basic or high contrast themes.
    Restart OnLocation CS3.
    This should bring your video back into view.

  • Bridge does not show image previews anymore on one of my drives

    Bridge isn't showing image previews on one of my drives. I have tried resetting the preferences as well as deleting the cache to no avail.

    I don't believe so, because it operates as expected in finder. It's only bridge that doesn't seem to want to create the thumbnails. I went to the thread you posted, Robert, but unfortunately I'm not on Windows and don't see any "online" or "offline" options.
    Transporter is not a cloud service. It's actually a local hardware device, so it's more a network drive than anything else.

  • Bridge CS3 Not Showing JPG/PSD Files

    Running version 2.1.1.9 on a Mac G5 Dual 2.5 w/4.5 GB of Ram under OS 10.5.2.
    BRidge for some reason today first stopped showing entire folders of JPGs files. Refreshing folders and restarting Bridge did not fix the problem. Rebooted the machine and now entire folders of PSD files are not being seen either.
    How do I trash the prefs for Bridge and any other ideas on fixing this?
    Thanks,
    mark

    Trashing prefs did not help. Did a complete reinstall and seems to be working again.

  • Bridge CS3 not displaying images all of sudden

    So I use Bridge as my image browser and then open images in PS3 for editing. So today, folders full of photos that I have been working on no longer display in Bridge. It gives an accurate items count in the lower right hand corner, and most folders on the hard drive will populate thumbnails and display, but others, particularly newer folders show nothing like they are empty. I've tried purging caches, but to no avail. The images display in finder so I know they are there. No filters are on to keep me from seeing the images. Any ideas?

    Wow, one more development. If I double click somewhere in the main browser window in actually opens a photo in PS3 (as I have it set to do, and do often during workflow). Still, there is NOTHING to indicate there are any thumbnail there to click. Hmmm.

    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 (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,

    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,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,

  • Adobe Bridge will not show items in subfolder even when this option is checked.

    Adobe Bridge will not show items in subfolder even when this option is checked. It works on one computer but not the other-both working on the same system/ version of adobe cc.
    How can I fix this bug?

    Check to see what is different between setups.  You may want to reset prefences in the balky computer.

  • My mac will not show images when on the internet?

    My mac will not show images when on the internet?  I think I have inadvertently changed some settings but nor sure which one.

    I am going to assume you are using Safari here. If so then go to the Apple menu bar and hit Safari-> Preferences.  Under the Apperance tab there is a check box that is called "Display images when the page opens".  Check if that is unticked.

  • Bridge does not show my Camera Raw Adjustments in previews or thumbnails.

    Bridge CS6 on my Mac is not showing my Camera Raw adjustments in a preview pane or thumbnail.
    Here's how it worked until recently:
    I open a .CR2
    I make some adjustments
    I click "Done"
    The thumbnail and the preview show the adjustments I made
    Now, it works like this:
    Open a .CR2
    Make adjustments
    Click "Done"
    The preview and thumbnail don't show all the adjustments. I can't see the results of noise removal, but I can see a drastic change in Exposure
    If I double-click the CR2 file, it opens in Camera Raw, and I see all my adjustments, including noise removal.
    Here's what I've tried, but saw  no difference (I restarted Bridge every time):
    Purge Cache
    Purge Cache for Selection
    Replaced Camera Raw plug-in as described here: Camera Raw 8.4 | No metadata or Camera Raw edit
         (Doing so made Camera Raw disappear in Bridge, so I restored the original file)
    Reset Preferences
    Reset Standard Workspaces
    All the above fixes were inspired by this thread: Re: Bridge CS6 not showing Camera Raw adjustments
    Why don't I see the noise removal effect in the previews? I am sure I saw it a few weeks ago. I rely on that, to help me sort and cull photos.
    I'm hoping there's a preference toggle that I accidentally changed. It's definitely a puzzle. (Version: Bridge CS6 5.0.1.21 5.0.2.4)
    Message was edited by: moonatwork after updating Bridge version. I tried all the above fixes again, after updating Bridge. It actually got worse. I tried replacing the Camera Raw plugin, which failed as before. I then restored the previous plugin, as before, but Bridge now fails to honor the preference, "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge" and instead always opens Photoshop.

    Thanks, Omke. I tried updating, then applying all the same fixes to the updated version. No change.
    I can attach a screenshot, but I must block out names and faces. All you'll see is my Bridge interface, not the faces in the portraits. Hope that helps.

  • Jdeveloper visual editor do not show images and other component shapes

    I used jdeveloper(10.1.3.3.0) to create an ADF BC application, I create a jsf jsp file and drag and drop components from ADF Faces Core to this file visual editor, but jdeveloper visual editor do not show images and other component shapes.
    Could you tell me how I can fix this problem?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Actually, I need to make a dummy change to the jsp file and then it will display boxes representing the objects in the visual editor whereas I get an exception in the log:
    javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Cannot find FacesContext
    This does not talk much to me !

  • Mobile Safari not showing images

    Hi there,
    Since upgrading to 4.01 and then 4.02 on my iPhone, Safari seems to intermittently not show images on websites... does anyone know the reason for this and a solution?

    I am having the same issue. I have found in my case the site I was working on is pulling content from JSON and the mobile app is using a Cache Manifest file. When I removed the manifest file reference I could see the images again.

  • JList not showing images

    Have raised a thread giving details of the problem in Java2D forum
    JList not showing images
    Have anybody experienced this issue? I face this issue only when i use swingworker and only for small images (few kBs). It works fine for large images (More than 1MB files). I use Win 7.
    Regards,
    Sreram

    One, do you say because i set the model each time, sometimes the list is not getting repainted? I didn't say that. It's just good concurrency practice to only manipulate models on the EDT, particularly when SwingWorker easily allows the break up of loading the images in a background thread and updating the model on the EDT through the publish/process methods.
    Will the splitting up of worker as process chunks be of any use? Again it's just a good habit to get into for concurrency reasons.
    As for your repainting issue, try changing this line
    item.setImage(getImagefromFile(f)); to
    item.setImage(new ImageIcon(getImageFromFile(f)).getImage()); The ImageIcon class uses MediaTracker to synchronously load images (you can use your own if you want). If you're getting your images via the Toolkit.createImage# methods, then the images need to be loaded. Usually what happens is the toolkit image will get loaded when first drawn. The component that's doing the drawing gets repainted as more of the image comes in. But in the case of a JList, that component is the cell renderer pane and it doesn't care about repaint() calls. So changing the above line will insure the images are already loaded and ready to draw when first shown. tjacobs01 post reminded me of this.

  • Amazon and FaceBook not showing images

    I had a software issue and had to wipe my macbook. Since then, Safari will occasionally not show images on Amazon and sometimes FaceBook. Usually a clean of the history will fix it but sometimes it doesn't. I am not running any extensions and everything is up to date. Any idea what could be causing this?

    Hello Clement! (Be careful in what you post to the Internet, your name is in the screenshot, just sayin' If you want to be able to blur things in screenshots before posting them, try Skitch, it's a free app on the Mac App Store)
    In the past, I've seen this being caused by ISP's DNS servers.
    Try the following:
    Unplug your modem from the power, wait a minute, and plug it back in. If your issue is solved now, celebrate
    If not solved, however, try and see if you have the same issue on another network.
    You can also change the DNS server you use to something like OpenDNS. There is a guide here, preferably set it up on your router, but if that's too technical, try setting it up on your Mac only: https://store.opendns.com/setup/?__utma=247635969.764677354.1418757510.141875751 0.1418757510.1&__utmb=247635969.3.10.1418757510&__utmc=247635969&__utmx=-&__utmz =247635969.1418757510.1.1.utmcsr=google|utmccn=%28organic%29|utmcmd=organic|utmc tr=%28not%20provided%29&__utmv=-&__utmk=7372593#/
    One last thing about changing DNS servers. Really, your internet provider should be more than capable of serving you pictures from Amazon and Facebook (by the way, most of these pics are not hosted by Amazon and Facebook really, but by an outside company called Akamai that a lot of large companies use. So I should probably be saying: "your ISP should not have any trouble serving content from Akamai's servers")
    Hence, the proper advise I should give you is: contact your ISP and ask them if they've been having DNS issues lately. Barring that: you can save yourself some helpdesk pain and use OpenDNS or Google DNS.

  • Mail does not show images anymore server stopped responding on my iPad 2 when attempting to browse web

    Over the last couple of days my ipad 2 has started to play up. First the mail would not show images in mail then when trying to browse the web it now will not open any pages. I have attempted a wipe & reload but still no difference.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • Bridge not showing images in numerical order

    I'm in Bridge CS3 .  Out of a folder full of 108 images all are in numerical order except for 6 that are out of sequence.  I double and triple checked that my filenames were all uniform except for the numbers.  What's going on here, can someone shed some light?  I'm attaching a screen capture showing items 002 - 007 out of sequence.

    According to your screenshot the filter panel shows sort by Date created. If
    you change this (click on the name or the little triangles to show the
    submenu with this option) to sort by filename (you can choose between
    ascending and descending with the other arrow) it will show the correct
    order. There are also more sort orders to choose from
