Bridge CS5 downloading images

I'm trying to download my pics from a card reader on a Mac via Bridge rather than Lightroom. It can see my images but when I try to select a destination folder it freezes leaving the only option to force quit. Any suggestions please.

And you may want to provide more information.
Other than that are application and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs, system maintenance etc.)?

Why do thumbnails in Bridge CS5 open in CS3? How to fix?

I have both CS3 and CS5 installed on new computer running under Windows 7. I do not want to uninstall CS3 until I fully understand CS5. The problem: When I click thumbnail image in Bridge CS5, the image appears in CS3. I have gone to 'preferences' and tried to figure out how to fix this problem; also looked via windows 7 control panel at default settings; also tried to follow previous discussion on similar problem -- all without success. Help will be much appreciated.

CS5 and CS3 to both independant programs and should not interfere with each other. I would recommend you do not uninstall CS3 as that frequently causes massive file association problems. However, only one program can be active at the same time.
CS3 and CS5 use sepearte cache, so there is no cross association. What you are probably seeing is incorrect file association.
While in CS5 go to edit/pref/file type associations and see what the default is set to. You want it to be CS5. Might click on the radio button at bottom to reset all if that is the problem.

Using Bridge to Import Images from Camera to Harddrive. Question inside...

I have Bridge automatically download images when my camera is connected.
I was wondering if it was possible to have Bridge ONLY download RAW (nef) and JPEG files. because i also shoot video with one of my cameras, but it downloads my AVI files as well.
thanks for your help

Don't know about AVI but if you select the advanced dialog in Photodownloader you can put checkmarks on the files you want to be downloaded or not. You can also set the option create subfolders to a set of names or dates.
Beside that, it is common knowledge that the use of a separate card reader for downloading images to the computer is preferred above the connection from camera to computer :-)

If you had given us sensible information, I could look it up for you if your efforts fail.
Right now, I don't even know if you are on a Mac or on a Windows box.

Downloading Camera Images in Bridge CS5 (Cannon 500D)

Hi,
I'm trying to download images from my Cannon 500D camera in bridge. It seems that the Photo Browser gets stuck reading the first CR2 file. When the Photo Downloader is in advanced mode (so you see the thumbnails) you just get a generic icon of the flower for the first CR2 file and then everyone after that (including the JPGs) is a hour glass.
Bridge displays the thumbnails and opens CR2 files that are already on my hard drive, its just an issue when accessing them from my camera.
Thanks,
Jo.

I am using a USB cable to connect my camera to my PC. If I take the SD card out and use my laptop card reader it works fine.
Thanks,
Jo.

There was a bug in CS5.1 is this the version you are using? If so here is a solution from a past thread.
If you want to maintain the Downloader dialog preferences (advanced dialog, metadata, etc.) the answer is in the thread referenced previously, but from what I've found, here's a little clarification.
N.B. This is for Windows 7 x64 (Home premium, but probably the same for Pro/Ultimate). This may work for macs too (change directory of course)
1) Create a new folder called "Bridge CS5" (leave the Bridge CS5.1 folder at least for now. you may want to redirect your cache)
EX: C:\Users\[Your USER NAME HERE]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS5
2) Copy the "APDPreferences.xml" file - if you have one - from the Bridge CS5.1 folder to the new "Bridge CS5" folder you just created (should be the only required file in the folder). It's OK to leave the folder empty too.
3) Make your changes to the downloader dialog, save a file or two, exit normally.
When you open it again, it should return to the defaults you just set up.

ITunes connects, but neither Image Capture, nor Bridge Photo Downloader see iPhone

Hello. When I connect my iPhone (4, running 5.1.1) to my mac (10.8.1), iTunes starts syncing (so I see the connection works in principle), but neither Adobe Bridge CS5 Photo Downloader, nor Image Capture sees the Device. Bridge says: Source – Get Photos from <None Detected>. The <Refresh List> command brings no change. In Image Capture, both the Devices and the Shared menu item remain empty, the message its main window says: No camera or scanner connected. I guess that is no unknown problem, but I somehow can't find anything on it.
I'd be greatful for any idea.

Just checked it. The settings in iPhoto are for "Connecting camera opens: iPhoto"
When I connect the phone, iPhoto will launch, but the iPhone will not show up under devices.

Problems with Image Processor in Bridge CS5

I just installed Photoshop and Bridge CS5, and I'm having a couple of problems. First, I can't update to Bridge 4.02. I've downloaded the installer and tried to run it, but I get an error message. All it says is that it can't run the update. The same thing with the Camera Raw updater. The most immediate problem I'm having is that Image Processor in CS5 seems to run differently from how it runs in CS4. Specifically, if I select a bunch of files in Bridge, and ask Image Processor to run an action on them and save to the same location, which is what I've been doing ever since CS2, it opens the files in Photoshop, and leaves them open. This means that pretty soon I've got far too many fiiles open, and my Mac can't cope with it (an iMac Core Duo 2.16Ghz with 4 GB of ram). It also gives me an error message at the end saying it can't process the relevant files, even though it has processed them! In previous versions of Image Processor, it would open the files to run the action, convert to sRGB, etc. and then close each one after saving it to a new folder named "JPEG". How can I get the latest version to behave like this?

Nevermind... I restarted Flash and it miragically appeared! Yay CS5!

Downloading with Bridge CS5

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?

60D images not showing a thumbnail view in Bridge CS5..ideas?

I am having trouble seeing images in raw format from a 60D Canon in Bridge CS5. I have an iMac using OS X 10.9.4..any ideas why I can only see the white file, but can see all images in raw from 5D, 7D, 40D...etc. No updates show up as available on my computer or on the Adobe site. I just can't figure it out!
Thanks for your help.

Make sure your ACR (Adobe camera Raw) plug-in is fully updated. That camera model has been supported since Adobe Camera Raw 6.2.
DO NOT rely on the Adobe auto updater to tell you that there are no updates available. It's totally unreliable in CS5 and earlier versions. The Adobe updater team overseas did not get their act together even halfway right until CS6.
Go into the About Plugin > Camera Raw… menu item in Photoshop to see what version of ACR you have. In CS5, ACR should be at version 6.7, more precisely at 6.7.1.
If you are already updated to ACR 6.2 or higher, then go to the Tools menu in Bridge and Purge Cache for the offending folder(s).

CS5 bridge photo downloader

Why does the photo downloader close all of the image files from which I am selecting files for downloader once the selected files have been donloaded? I have to then start again, and wait for all of the image file thumbnails to once again open.

It would be much more effecient to use the bridge photo downloader with the options of selecting a specific folder and custom name for the images being downloaded.
I can only confirm your concern about the lack of development regarding Photodownloader. It has much potential but needs improvement to make it a key feature for us photographers.
The slow building of thumbs is one of the major flaws. Sadly enough since it was introduced Photodownloader has not changed a bit (and while Bridge is now 64 bit, on my Mac APDL still proofs to be 32 bit…)
Meanwhile a faster workflow would be like Curt provided, download the lot and use Bridge filter panel and date created sort option to move them in to separate folders. At this moment that is a much quicker workflow then restarting and selecting the files in APDL every single time you need a different folder :-0

Image Processor does not start through Bridge CS5

Image Processor does not start through Bridge CS5, it starts only PS and nothing happen. I do not know, how to repair it.

Most likely you do not have the startup files checked.
In Bridge go to edit/preferences/startup scripts. Make sure you have a check mark for Bridge and Photoshop. Without that they can't talk to each other.
