Bridge CS6 'Ultra Compact Mode?'

Hi, can anyone tell me why there is no ultra compact mode in Bridge CS6? Personally this makes Bridge unusable as in compact mode it is too big and clutters up my workspace in InDesign. Is there another way to make it smaller.
Many thanks

why there is no ultra compact mode in Bridge CS6?
They replaced this option in CS5 with the Mini Bridge Panel. This is a panel to be used in Photoshop and InDesign. In InDesign you find it under the menu view/minibridge. Check it and you be presented with a panel that enables you to reach Bridge content within InDesign without the need to switch from application.
However to my personal believe (as a photograper woth PS, not much experience with ID) there is a lot to improve for this panel. But if you first create a collection from content you want to lok at or do need to use I found it usefull to open the MB panel and choose to show the collection. Drag and drop should place your files to the open document.

Anchor ultra compact view to bottom

I like keeping bridge in ultra compact mode, with the little window tucked away in the lower left hand corner of my screen. When I click the "compact mode" button to see some files and open a slightly larger window, it rolls up as I would expect. However, it's rolls out *above* where the ultra-compact window was. When I click the button to switch back to ultra-compact mode, the window rolls *up* not down so I have the window sitting about 3/4 of the way down my screen instead of the corner where I want it. I'm constantly relocating that window, so consider it a "feature request" to have the bridge compact window anchored to a corner/side of the screen.

Hi, Dusty. All digital cameras that I know of write their memory cards in FAT32 format. Macs, which have always been able to read FAT32, have no trouble reading them, with the exception of the XD cards that many Olympus cameras use. Those are often not readable by Macs for some reason, but it isn't because they're FAT32-formatted. The E-410 can use both CF and XD cards, but you should use only CF cards in yours to avoid problems.

Dreamweaver compact mode convert!

Hello, I have a question please, I'm trying to convert my dreamweaver cs6 to compact mode, also to show the css designer and css transaction bar to be able to view the css styles.
please help, Thank you.

The Compact workspace and CSS Designer are not available in Dreamweaver CS6. They are new features in Dreamweaver CC. If you have a subscription to the Creative Cloud, you can download and install the latest version of Dreamweaver CC.
I'm not sure what you mean by the CSS transaction bar. The CSS Transitions panel is available in both Dreamweaver CS6 and CC by selecting Window > CSS Transitions.

Bridge Compact Mode window will not float

I cannot get the Bridge CS3 compact mode window to float on top of Indesign CS3 (or any other application) despite having it checked to do so. Resetting preferences doesnt help. Bridge otherwise works as it should.
Any ideas please?

Dear Bob,
I am having the same problem but your solution does not swork for me. I have 6 VPCs on my "host" PC and 5 of them are working normally but one has gone into shut down mode but will not shut down. Due to memory restirctions, I can only run 2 VPCs at a time
so this one is cutting that to one. I found I can hibernate it by using CTRL-ALT-DEL on the host and doing "End task" on the dodgy VPC, but it still says "Running" in the Virtual Machines folder and it will not let me delete the .vsv file for the dodgy VPC.
If I then rty to open it again, the window opens but with "Shutting down" showing and none of the VM menus work: shut down and restart both say "Cannot shut down this virtual machine"; tools / integration features runs but says it cannot start integration;
Ctrl+Alt+Del does nothing at all. Ideally, I would like to restart the VM to get a few settings from it and then shut it down and delete it (it is a failed development) but right now I would settle for anything that gets rid of it altogether! Any suggestions?
Why doesn't MS provide a way of forcefully shutting down a VM?

Why do Camera Raw mods show in Bridge CS6 on one machine but not the other?

Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CS6 are activated on our two MacBooks. Before adding the second activation, image modifications performed in Camera Raw (8.4.0.199) would show in Bridge on our MacBook Pro. Since then, they don't show on our MacBook Pro but do show on our MacBook Air. On both machines, when we launch an image from Bridge, the modifications show in the Camera Raw window. Is there a setting that we have inadvertenty modified on the MacBook Pro, that controls whether Bridge displays Camera Raw modifications?
Interesting related factoid: the "Camera Raw Preferences" item in the "Abobe Bridge CS6" menu does nothing on our MacBook Pro but works normally on our MacBook Air. It's like Bridge doesn't know that Camera Raw is around (?)

This file fixed my problem: Camera Raw.plugin.zip
It was a flaw un the latest Camera Raw updare, as described in the thread

Good and bad things about Bridge CS6 Beta

The good thing first: No memory leaks anymore. No crashing, no freezing, no write errors when running Bridge scripts on large numbers of image files. Ah—what a relief!
In comparison this this, the bad things are just trifles. First—when selecting the exposure data to show up under each thumbnail then the aperture number will get rounded down to the nearest integer. So, for example, apertures of f/1.4, f/1.7, f/2, f/2.8, f/3.5, f/5.6, f/6.3, f/6.7 will get presented as 1.0, 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 6.0, 6.0, respectively. In the EXIF data, the aperture numbers are correct, and Camera Raw 7.0 will display the correct numbers. Second—when starting Bridge CS6 or Photoshop CS6 then the monitor will get switched off for a brief moment. The screen goes completely black for two seconds or so, then returns as if it was in stand-by mode. It's nothing severe but very annoying.

What camera produced the files?
Doesn't matter. I have files from two different cameras, Sony A900 and Leica M9, all shot in both JPEG and raw format (ARW for the Sony; DNG 1.0 for the Leica). The issue occurs with the thumbnails of both the JPEG and raw files. For the very same files, the issue is not there in Bridge CS5.

Well ... the previous version of the display driver actually was the latest, at the time of installing CS6 Beta. The current driver version came out only two days ago.

Adobe Bridge CS6 display question

I am a landscape photographer. Many times I shoot multiple exposures of the same scene to combine them later in HDR. These are generally 3 or 5 exposures taken at the same time. It would be very useful to see each set of multiple exposures on a separate line in Adobe Bridge so I can quickly choose which set to use for processing in HDR. Does anybody know how to do that? I could not see it in the View options in the menu bar of Bridge. I am using Adobe Bridge CS6 (5.0.1.21) on MAC OSX 10.6.8. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

You can't do so in Bridge when having different amounts of series. If you shot always 5 you could drag the content window to a new size in combination with changing the thumbnail size so 5 thumbs would show in a row. The same with 3 but there is no way to have a content window showing 1 line with 3 and 1 line with 5 files in the same panel.
In filmstrip mode you have 1 single line but that does not meet you wishes also.
There is the option to auto stack for HDR or Photomerge (Stacks / Auto stack Panorama-HDR) but frankly spoken this sucks because it either does not do the job properly or simply crashes Bridge to my experience.

Can't see CR2 files in Adobe Bridge CS6

I have recently purchased Canon 5D Mark iii and have taken a few shots in RAW mode. When I try to open the file in Adobe Bridge CS6, I can't view the file.
I also have a canon T2i and the raw file from that camera show perfectly fine.
What could be the problem? All my CS6 software is up to date.

Updated to ACR 8.4? There is an issue:
The fix is to download a 8.4 again via the link below and follow the instructions to replace the existing 8.4 plugin:

Adobe Bridge CS6 Mac cannot be launched

Dear Adobe community!
I just installed my brand new CS6 Design & Web Premium Suite on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.3 and installed all of the available CS6 updates.
Unfortunately I cannot launch Bridge (version 5.0.2.4) from my account (admin privileges) - after double clicking the icon the application window shows up for just a fraction of a second and I receive a pop-up window saying something like "operation could not be completed successfully" (I am running a German language version).
- Trying to start Bridge from PS results in the same error mesage.
- Trashing the Bridge preference file did not change anything.
- Starting Bridge with the option key pressed and forcing reset of all parameters to default does not change anything.
- Booting my Mac into safe mode (pressing shift key on startup) does not help.
But creating a new user on my single-user Mac allows to launch Bridge when logged in to that new account.
I'd be more than happy to receive some helpful coments from the experts around here!

Update - problem finally solved!
What happened in between:
I started a chat session with one of the Adobe support guys. He said that the cause for the malfunction was most likely a conflict with permissions.
After I told him that I had tried to repair permissions several times by Apple's Disk Utility without success he suggested me to copy the following file / directory from my newly generated "Test" user (under whom Bridge could be launched effortlessly):
[username]/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.bridge5.0.plist
and the whole directoy
[username]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Bridge CS6
If that would not resolve my problem there was no other "cure" for my problem because of an irreparable permission conflict.
After that I logged in under the new user "Test" and copied the mentioned files / directoy to a separate drive, logged in back as my standard user (the account where Bridge refused to start) and overwrote the files I had just exported before.
Result: Same problems - Bridge refused to start as before.
Dang...
So there is no way to solve this problem like Adobe said?
Presuming that the pending permission problem was the cause for my Bridge-issue I decided to "force" permissions:
I went to OS X Finder, marked the home directoy of my problematic account, typed cmd + I to open the info window, went to the bottom section where permissions are listed, wnet to the user group "admin" and marked this group as "read and write" (it was read only before!) and chose the option to apply theses settings to all of the sub-directories and files (icon with the gear-wheel).
After the changes where applied I restarted my Mac and logged in as my standard user and opened Bridge:
Bridge started but showed the sub-directories of my "Test" account. So I shut down Bridge, deleted the com.adobe.bridge5.0.plist file from my standard account, rebooted my Mac - and voilà - Bridge works like a charme!
FInally I wouldn't say that there was no "plan B"...
Maybe this workaround can be helpful for someone out there!

Oliver

Adobe Bridge CS6 keeps zooming into previews

Hi guys. I'm using Adobe Bridge CS6 to browse some media content, but each time I preview a video, it plays zoomed in about 20% or so. It does this for all video clips, all sizes, no matter how I try to reconfigure the layout, use OUTPUT mode, FILMSTRIP mode, ESSENTIALS etc, it still shows zoomed in.
I'm running Win7 64bit with a GTX570 with updated drivers.
Please help. Thanks.

You mean 200 % instead of 20 %??
Use the loupe on an image and check what the default zoom percentage is, it should show 100 % and if it is at 200 % you have to use your mouse scroll wheel to set it back to 100 % (it runs from 100 % to 200, 400 and 800 %).
If your video files exceed the preview window you have to enlarge this window or if the behavior keeps this way consider to reset the preferences of Bridge holding down control key while restarting Bridge and choose reset prefs.

Can't open file from Bridge CS6 in PS CS6

From Bridge CS6, my files open in Windows Photo Viewer or Live Photo Gallery. When I go to "Open with" on the File menu PS CS6 is not an option. I know this has to be simple but it is driving me nuts and I can't get my photos to open in PS when I double click on one of my tens of thousands of photos.
I just bought CS6 yesterday. Also, do I need to keep the Adobe CS6 file that is on my desktop, or can I delete it now that the program is loaded? It is 1.77 GB. If I even need to reload PS, I can do it from the store on my account, right? Same for the Adobe file that is on my desktop from the LR4 download a couple of months ago. Also, I left PS6 checked on the download for 64 and the regular PS. I have windows 7 so I only need 64 bit. Why is the other PS CS6 (non 64) there? Do I need it? Should I uninstall it? Also, should I uninstall CS4 and CS5? They are all still sitting there, along with LR3 (I use LR4 now). I have huge and multiple hard-drives, so space is not a consideration. But I just want to clean up a little.

Lots of questions here, will see what I can add.
For the file problem go to preferences/file type associations. You should have the option selected CS6 for the extenstion as the default. Might try the radio button on the bottom first to set them to default settings.
If the 1.77g file you are refering to is the one you downloaded and used for installation you can delete it. It is a wise choice to save it to a DVD first so in case you need it in the future you will have it. Also save the serial number in safe place. Acutally safe is not the right word, need to save in place where you can find it if you need it next year. HD can fail.
There are still thrid party plug-ins that do not work in 64 bit mode, hence the 32 bit version. Also there is no 64 bit TWAIN so some still like to use that for scanning.
Some users experience file association and other problems with an uninstall of past versions. So it is safest to leave them be.
If you want to clean up a little resist the urge to move any Adobe programs once is is installed. Can really foul it up.

Windows 8 Pro Adobe Bridge CS6 5.0.1.23 x64 not responding

On my new SSD with a fresh install of Windows 8 Pro and Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium, I regularly get a "(not responding)" warning in Bridge's (5.0.1.23 x64) title bar when opening a folder location, and the program takes around 10-20 seconds to display folder contents. This seems to be an indexing or caching issue, but I have not resolved it through the following fix attempts.
In Bridge settings, I have placed the cache on the OS SSD at "C:\Users\York\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS6\Cache", and I have placed it on a separate internal physical HDD at "D:\Adobe Bridge CS6 temp cache". I have experimented with all other options (100% previews, export, manage, compact, and purge cache - restarting the app after each tweak).
I have Ctrl-opened Bridge to access the "Reset setting" dialog box, where I restored default preferences and purged the cache. This did seem to alleviate the problem temporarily, but it did not resolve it.
I have not uninstalled, repaired, or re-installed Bridge because it is not listed as a standalone app in the "Windows Control Panel > Programs and Features > Uninstall or change a program" window or the Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium installer.
My system is Intel i7-2600K, Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z, Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti, 32GB RAM, Samsung 840 250GB SSD, various HDDs.
My other system, an Intel Quad-Core Q6600, Asus P5Q-Pro, AMD Radeon HD 6950, 8GB RAM, Samsung 840 250GB SSD, various HDDs, does not have this problem.
Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks for the input, Curt. I have not changed the TEMP/TMP directories, which are set per Adobe instructions at http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/bridge-crashes-changing-temp-file.html. Temporary "not responding" freezes (10-20 seconds) are my issue. Crashes, as others are reporting due to the temp directories, are not occurring. Other thoughts are appreciated.

Bridge CS6 crashes on startup after upgrade from CS5

Yesterday I upgraded to Photoshop CS6 using an install disk mailed from Adobe. Photoshop CS6 itself appears to be working fine, but both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Bridge CS6 crash on startup with the standard Windows popup ("Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working. Windows is searching for a solution..."). Bridge CS5 still works great, as it did before the CS6 installation.
The Windows Event Viewer shows the following message for the crash of the 64-bit version:

I've rebooted multiple times and tried reinstalling from the upgrade disk, but the problem persists.
The installation is on a machine dedicated to Photoshop whose system info is included below. I'm running a multi-disk setup with 1 SSD as my C drive, another SSD for Temp and Scratch (in different partitions on the same SSD), and a RAID 5 array of hard drives for the actual image files. To my knowledge I'm running with the latest drivers of everything.
I'm not sure how to move forward at this point. Any information or assistance would be most appreciated.

Thanks Curt, but this is not a virus issue. Think about it, how could the ntdll.dll file be virus infected and yet only impact the running of this single application? That really wouldn't make sense now would it? That library is critical to many windows function and if it were virus infected, I would have more things to worry about that trying to get Bridge to launch.
I already did my homework on that before I posted here and tried some of the things suggested on verifying the integrity of my system files. The Digital Signature Information shows to be okay.
It could be that I upgraded this system from Windows XP Professional to Windows Vista Business and that I have an old (CS2) install that I did not remove from the computer. I have done a variety of things to try and get to the root, but to no avail. I am sure that if I were willing to start completely from scratch and do a clean install of the OS, I may be able to get it to work. I don't really have time to do that however, and since I am not the only person who has had the issue with Bridge failing to start, I suspect the solution lies somewhere within the architecture of Bridge in CS6 that is at the root of my problem.
I am hoping that someone from Adobe will finally figure it out and provide an update that works.

Bridge CS6 freezing on OSX 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion)

I am entering this because it is solved and may help others...

Recurring and repeatable problem where Bridge would send OSX into the "spinning wheel" and lockup the entire system. The only way out was to force a hard reset via button and reboot. It appeared as though the problem occured when I tried to create a new folder so I concluded that it might be a problem with the interaction with Bridge and the underlying File System. Tried: 1) upgrading to latest version of Bridge 2) upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion. Problem persisted.
After numerous attempts, I discovered that the problem was only repeatable in a certain directory. The directory was from a photoshoot with a mixture of RAW and JPEG shots from a Nikon D7000 so the RAW files were .NEF format. I wondered if there was a problem with the .NEF files since I had just started using RAW. The camera produces both .NEF and .JPG and both get dumped in Bridge. Important: Even though I was able to see other directories with the same mix of files, Bridge kept complaining that there was an problem in the "cache" and that I needed to go to Properties->Cache->Purge Cache to "Purge all Thumbnails and Previews" -- which I did, but the problem persisted with this singular directory.
Next, I went to Finder to see if the folder/directory was readable there. Since there seemed to be a problem with the "Thumbnails and Previews" I put Finder in "columns" mode so it was forced to create a preview. I figured if there was a problem creating previews or thumbnails, a lower level render via Finder would be a good test. I went through all 200 files in the directory to see that the previews were created easily. Each preview popped up in under 1 sec. BUT, then I encountered a RAW .NEF file that took over a minute to render and finally showed up as a thumbnail instead of a preview. I concluded that the .NEF file was corrupt and deleted it AND the corresponding .JPG and the problem was solved. Bridge was able to browse (create thumbnail and previews in cache).
Note to Adobe Devs: Bridge needs to have much better recovery from situtations like this. There was clearly NO TIMEOUT on Bridge's efforts to render thumbnails and previews on the corrupted RAW file. Bridge should timeout and present a meaningful error.

"Target folder can not be created" and the pdf message: "There is insufficient disk space to complete this operation"
Assuming you do have enough disk space left (less then 10 % of total amount available for free space is bringing sooner rather then later in to trouble) and you also have sufficient amount of RAM (more then 4GB is strongly advised especially if you are running multiple applications) and also enough VRAM (CS6 needs at least 500MB but 1 GB will give you more benefit).
And also assuming you have run the Adobe Updater for latest Bridge (5.0.1.21) then the first thing I would try is a restart holding down option key and choose reset preferences and then try again.
Personally I don't use Web Gallery but I do use the Output Module almost daily for creating PDF contact sheets (have also multiple custom templates) and have no problem at all using it.
(only difference is I'm still at 10.7 while you moved to Mountain Lion)
Could you report back if this helped you, if not you have to also delete the bridge plist file from user library.

Bridge CS6- Thumbnails gone and metadata too!

Hi everyone.
I am in panic mode.
I am running Bridge CS6 (5.0.2.4) And PS CS6. I recently updated something Can't remember if it was DNG and/or Camera Raw.
My problem started today when i went to view a folder of DNG images in Bridge. Initially the thumbnails of the images showed up, but then one by one, the thumbnails turned into the Adobe DNG icon. This is happening with tiff files too.
I went to Tools>Cache>Purge Cahe for Folder... That did not help. I simply can not re-generate the thumbnails.
I've also noticed that when I click on almost any image, my metadata does not show up in the Meta Data Panel in Bridge.
Another odd thing is all my images are keyworded. I used to be able to click on an image, and see in the Keyword Panel the keywords I chose for that image. That is no longer the case, however when I open that image in Photoshop CS6 and get file info, I see that my keywords and Metadata is there!
And the very last weird thing: If I go to the Bridge menu>Camera raw preferences, nothing happens. I used to be able to set my TIFF and JPEG handling options there.
This happened as I was finishing archiving about 20,000 images so you'll understand that I am a little bit more than upset....
Your help would be most appreciated.
Jonathan

After reading a few things online I decided to try re-installing the DNG/CR Update 8.4.0. That did not help.
I then decided to delete the ACR cache files, the Adobe Bridge 256, 1024, and Full cache folders, since there were tens of thousands of them.
I realize that Bridge might have to rebuild and it would take a while, but was wondering if something got corrupted there.
(I hope this wasn't a mistake).
I relaunched bridge, and as expected, none of my images have thumbnails, but I also see no way to re-generate those!
BTW- All this has happened with my back-up of this archive on a seperate HD.
I am unable to get the CR preference window to show in Bridge but I am able to acces the prefs from within PS CS6!
Going crazy!
