Bridge CS5 error in writing meta data - Can't Add Stars

In trying to rate an image file by adding a star, while viewing from Content window, I can't do it either by clicking on the dots below the expanded thumb or in the thumb view below. Nor does the Ctrl button + 1/2/3/4/5 work.
No matter the file format, jpg, psd, raw or tiff. No matter the folder.
Under Edit>Preferences>Thumbnails, there is no option for checking Show Stars.
Something I must have done, but can't recall how to undue.

Did You ever get a solution? I also cannot  rate or apply labels in bridge CS5 with any of the described methods. The files are not locked, the problem is with all types of files (nef, psd, jpeg, tiff). I can modify them in PS without problems. All my files are on an external hard drive. My PS is fully updated. When I ***** on the dots below the file the stars show but immediately disappear when I leave the file. Rating or label do not appear in the filter list, but in edit I can undo rating. I have administrator rigths.
We are the only ones with this problem - I have, howver, failed to see anyone state that the problems is solved.It seems that your thread stopped suddenly. Therefore this message in the hope of reviving it.

  • Problem writing meta data changes in xmp in spite of enabled settings

    Dear Adobe Community
    After struggling with this for two full days and one night, you are my last hope before I give up and migrate to Aperture instead.
    I am having problems with Lightroom 5 writing meta data changes into xmp and including development settings in JPEG, inspite of having ticked all three boxed in catalog settings.
    In spite of having checked all boxes, Lightroom refused to actually perform the actions. I allowed the save action to take a lot longer than the saving indicator showed was needed, but regardless of this no edits made in the photo would be visible outside Lightroom. I also tried unticking and ticking and restarting my compute.
    Therefore, I uninstalled the program and the reinstalled it again (the trial version both times). I added about 5000 images to Lightroom (i.e. referenced). After having made a couple of changes for one photo in development settings, I tried closing the program. However, then this message was then displayed:
    I left the program open and running for about 5-5 hours, then tried closing the program, but the message still came up so I closed the program and restarted the computer. I tried making changes to another photo, saving and then closing and the same message comes up. The program also becomes unresponsive, and of course still no meta data has been saved to the photo, i.e. when opening it outside Lightroom, the edits of the photos is not shown.
    What do do? I would greatly appreciate any insights, since I have now completely hit the wall.
    Oh yes, that´s right:
    What version of Lightroom? Include the minor version number (e.g., Lighroom 4 with the 4.1 update).
    Lightroom 5.3
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
    I installed the program two days ago and then for the second time today.
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
    Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/31.0.1650.63 Safari/537.36
    What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
    JPEG
    If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
    Please see screen dumps above
    What were you doing when the problem occurred?
    Trying to save metadata + trying to open images that it seemed I had saved meta data to
    Has this ever worked before?
    No
    What other software are you running?
    For some time Chrome, Firefox, Itunes. Then I closed all other software.
    Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed?  How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
    4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Has this ever worked before?  If so, do you recall any changes you made to Lightroom, such as adding Plug-ins, presets, etc.?  Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers, or installing/uninstalling any programs?
    No, the problems have been there all the time.

    Hi Rob
    I think you succeeded in partly convincing me. : ) I think I will go for a non-destrucitve program like LR when I am back in Sweden, but will opt for a destructive one for now.  Unfortuntately, I have an Olypmus- so judging from your comment NX2 might not be for me.

    My old snaps are JPEG, but I recently upgraded to an Olympus e-pl5 and will notw (edited by RC) start shooting RAW.
    Note: I edited your statement: I assume you meant now instead of not.
    If you start shooting raw, then you're gonna need a raw processor, regardless of what the next step in the process will be. And there are none better for this purpose than Lightroom, in my opinion. As has been said, you can export those back to Lightroom as jpeg then delete the raws, if storage is a major issue, or convert to Lossy DNG. Both of those options assume you're willing to adopt a non-destructive workflow, from there on out anyway (not an absolute requirement, but probably makes the most sense). It's generally a bad idea to edit a jpeg then resave it as a jpeg, because quality gets progressively worse every time you do that. Still, it's what I (and everybody else) did for years before Lightroom, and if you want to adopt such a workflow then yeah: you'll need a destructive editor that you like (or as I said, you can continue to use Lightroom in that fashion, by exporting new jpegs and deleting originals - really? that's how you want to go???). Reminder: NX2 works great on jpegs, and so is still very much a candidate in my mind - my biggest reservation in recommending it is uncertainty of it's future (it's kinda in limbo right now).

    Exportant (the option is invisible by default, but can be made visible by editing a text config file). To be clear: I do not recommend using Exportant for this purpose until after you've got everything else setup and functioning, and even then it would be worth reconsidering.

    Via Publish Services.

  • No image preview in Bridge and unable to write meta data files

    I recently converted my CR2 files to DNG files using the DNG converter. For the most part it worked. However, for some files, something went wrong. When I looked at a folder of newly converted dng files using Bridge, I noticed that some files didn't have a preview. These same files won't allow meta data to be written either. Are these files corrupt? What is wrong and how do I fix it? I tried to open these files in CR and they do open. Wierd thing is that if I open the file in CR, then click save file as dng, it will then show a preview in Bridge.

    Yes. The original RAW file (CR2) allows me to write metadata. In fact, if I write the metadata to the CR2 file first, then convert to DNG, all the metadata is there - even for the files that at first do not have a preview in Bridge.
    But the reason I'm converting to DNG is because I want my original archive files to be in a non-propriatory format.
    Even though I can get around the current issues of no preview and writing metadata, my main concern is whether or not there is a problem with the conversion. I don't want to find out later that the file is corrupt. I'm worried that the issues with previewing and writing metadata are symptoms of some bigger problem.
    Any ideas?

  • Adobe Bridge CS5, error when creating contact sheet "There is insufficient disk space..."

    I am running Bridge CS5 for the first time and I receive this error when attempting to create a contact sheet. "There is insufficient disk space to complete this operation." The image files I am using are web optimized and very small. The error even occurs when attempting one small image. I have gone back to using Bridge CS4 and it works just fine. Any help?
    Thanks!

    I think I narrowed this down to having a network volume mounted with a share name of "Users".  The strange thing is even you if unmount the volume you will still have problems.  However, if you avoid mounting the volume entirely (from boot) it will be OK.
    The solution, it appears, is to rename the sharepoint to something other than "Users".  This worked for us.  I'm not sure if it matters whether the server is Windows or Mac OS.  In our case the sharepoint was an AFP volume on Mac OS.
    We had other errors related to Bridge such as "unable to create folder" and the path in the message appeared to be /Users/currentUser/.....  which made no sense at all.  However, if Bridge was internally trying to use /Volumes/Users (the mounted sharepoint), it would not only not find "currentUser", but it would not have permissions to create that folder either.
    So, another possible solution could be to grant file creation rights on the network volume "Users".  Another not-so-great idea.
    Hope that helps someone else!

  • The "write key" configurat​ion file vi use of "trim string" prior to writing the data can modify any string data written.

    I tried to use the config VIs to record some front-panel settings for later restoration, one of which could be a single space character (part of a string parsing system).
    I soon discovered that whenever I tried to save that single-space value to an INI file, only a null string was saved.
    After doing some digging I discovered that buried in the Write Key vi is a worker vi called Config Data Modify that uses Trim String on the string data before it is written to the file and that's what was eating my string character. I don't know whether this is a bug or a feature but there are at least three ways to fix it.
    1) Assuming you want to leave the library VIs alone, you can pre-process any stings sent to "write key" to replace all spaces with "\20" and then post-process all strings read using "read key" to replace all instances of \20 with spaces.
      and if you don't mind modifying the library VIs, either to save/use under a different name or to stick back into the library in a modified state (caution - can cause problems when you move code to another machine with an un-modified library) then...
    2) You can yank the trim-string out of the Config Data Modify vi and hope that it does not have any undesirable side effects with regards to the other routines that use Config Data Modify (so far I have not found any in my limited testing)
    or
    3)  You can modify the string pre-processing vi, Remove Unprintable Chars, to add the space character to the list of characters that get swapped out automatically.
    Note that both option #1 (as suggested above) and option #3 will produce an INI file data entry that looks like    key="\20Hello\20World\20"   while option #2 produces an entry that looks like   key=" Hello World "

    Hi Warren,
    there's a 4th option:
    Simply set the "write raw string" input of the write key function to TRUE
    This option only appears when a string is wired to that function!
    Just re-checked:
    I think it's a limitation of the config file format. It's text based and (leading) spaces in the value are "overseen" as whitespaces. So your next option would be to use quotes around your string with spaces...

    Do not alter or move anything in
    • iMovie Project folder - or -
    • iMovie Events folder
    IMovie get's confused - and damage might well be un-repairable !
    How was the target hard disk formatted ?
    Mac OS Extended - only option that works !
    How much space was there on the target hard disk ?
    1 hour SD-video needs about 13Gb
    HD about 5 times more
    I would
    • Connect second laptop (Mac) via FireWire
    • Start this second one - Keeping T-key down (target mode)
    • Now in iMovie Project resp Events window it will show up as an external hard disk
    Drag-and-drop Events and/or projects over.

  • Can't subtract from time,date, can only add

    I've been having some trouble with times and dates. I wanted to perform a time correction calculation, that is, to find the difference between two times, then add the difference to a third time as a way of "correcting" it. So, you can add and subtract time-date values in Numbers, and you get the difference in a decimal fraction of days. That is, a day is 1, a half a day is .5, etc. This is the same way Excel does things. So far so good.
    The problem is that, for some reason, you can add to data-time values, but not subtract. For example:
    2/27/2008 9:30:00 PM + .01 = 2/27/2008 9:44:00 PM
    great, no problem, but...
    2/27/2008 9:30:00 PM - .01 = 2/27/2008 9:30:00 PM
    Huh? Why can't I subtract? What's even stranger is that it works of you do this:
    2/27/2008 9:30:00 PM + (-.01) = 2/27/2008 9:15:00 PM
    No that's messed up. Subtraction fails but adding a negative number works? This is a crazy bug.

    Hello
    For the add/substract a constant, my first guess was quite simple.
    The parser is defined to accept the operator + not the operator -.
    If it finds a +, is parse the parameter which may be positive or negative.
    If it finds a -, it treats it as a "not allowed" one.
    Alas it's a wrong description.
    If I try to add 1.1, it works.
    If I try to substract 1.1, the integer part is substracted, not the decimal part.
    So, it can't be a feature but a bug.
    I'm a bit reluctant to report it because I'm afraid that the result would be : disable the tip fooling the beast with a fake addition.
    What's your advice ?

  • Why does Bridge CS6 destroy my SWF files after inputting Meta Data?

    I save a swf file to my hard drive.  Then I open Bridge, select the swf file, and type some Meta Data into the panel on the right.  As soon as the data saves and the preview window refreshes, the preview renders completely white (Bridge can no longer preview it).  If I open the file in Flash, some layers and text are now missing.
    It seems that the act of writing meta-data to the swf file actually destroys portions of the file, and I have to go back to the original and re-export.
    We have reproduced this problem on both Mac & PC, on swf files of varying compression & XMP settings.  It is fairly consistent.
    Has anyone run into this and if so does anyone have any suggestions?

    Not a expert on swf files, but this article says you can not use Bridge to add metadata to SWF files.  So maybe that is why you are running into problems.  http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/190/862442

    How can I renams my pics in Bridge CS5?

    Here's what is in the Bridge cs5 help pdf file.  (I was not able to find this same help info from clicking help in Bridge cs5).
    Batch rename files
    You can rename files in a group, or batch. When you batch rename files, you can choose the same settings for all the selected files. For other batch-processing tasks, you can use scripts to run automated tasks.
    1  Select the files that you want to rename.
    2  Choose Tools > Batch Rename.
    3  Set the following options:
    Destination Folder
    Place the renamed files in the same folder, move them to another folder, or place copies in another folder. If you choose to put the renamed files in a different folder, click Browse to select the folder.
    New Filenames
    Choose elements from the menus and enter text as appropriate to create new filenames. Click the Plus button [+] or Minus button [-] to add or delete elements.
    •String Substitution
    Allows you to change all or part of a filename to custom text. First, choose what you want to replace: Original Filename replaces the string from the original filename. Intermediate Filename replaces a string that is defined by preceding options in the New Filenames pop-up menus. Use Regular Expression allows you to use regular expressions to find strings based on patterns in filenames. Replace All replaces all substrings that match the pattern in the source string.
    Options
    Select Preserve Current Filename In XMP Metadata to retain the original filename in the metadata. For Compatibility, select the operating systems with which you want renamed files to be compatible. The current operating system is selected by default, and cannot be deselected.
    Preview
    One current and new filename appear in the Preview area at the bottom of the Batch Rename dialog box. To see how all selected files will be renamed, click the Preview button.
    4  (Optional) Select a preset from the Presets menu to renaming with frequently used naming schemes. To save batch rename settings for reuse, click Save.
