Bridge doesn't recognize Oly E-620 files with ACR 5.4 Beta

hi:
1.  the good news--> ACR 5.4 is working well as well as DNG. 
2.  problem:  when i open up bridge (CS4), the new RAW files (example:  olympus E-620) don't show up as thumbnails.    i looked around in the preferences, but couldn't see anything that would fix this situation.   any help appreciated.
thanks.  harry shin

hi:
1.  thanks for the reply--> but purging the cache didn't help. 
2.  in re: installation, perhaps there is a different way to install ACR 5.4, but all i did was run the installer.  ACR is certainly working within photoshop CS4 and thus i'm assuming that it should be working in bridge (?)
3.  any further ideas appreciated.

  • Bridge doesn't recognize its own .xmp files

    Using Bridge CS3 on Mac OS 10.5.8. I edit RAW (.nef) files in ACR. When I click done, save, or open image, an .xmp sidecar file is generated and saved in the same folder as the .nef. However, changes made in ACR do not show in the preview thumbnail in Bridge, and when I re-open the file in ACR, my changes are lost. The .xmp file is still there, it's just not applied. It's like Bridge doesn't know the .xmp file is there. The icons in Bridge indicating altered develop settings or crops do not appear after adjudstments are made. Star ratings made in Bridge remain. When this issue began, it would ignore sidecar files for some images, but not others. It is increasing in frequency, or may now be consistent. (If I open the file into Photoshop or save an image file out of ACR, the changes are applied to the developed image file, they are simply ignored by Bridge in regards to the Raw file.)
    Files that were adjusted before the problem began still synchronize with their sidecar files. Looking at the sidecar files in a text editor shows that they contain the adjustments made.
    There were no changes in any installations/updates to software or OS at the time of the problem's onset.
    I've tried using a Camera Raw database instead of sidecar files, and the changes are still lost. I've tried purging caches for Bridge and for ACR. I've tried resetting and dumping preference (.plist) files.
    Anyone have ideas on what I can do to salvage this program as my RAW library manager?

    Matthew,
    Same problem here. But I'm using CS5 in Win7.
    Bridge cannot find its XMP files. Bridge does not see its XMP files. XMP files do not work. Camera Raw settings do not show in thumbnails. ACR settings lost.
    I just now figured out the problem/solution.
    In my case, the association between CR2 files and Bridge was usurped by Canon DPP (the Canon raw converter) which I just installed this afternoon. When I installed it, there was no immediate problem. But when I started a new work session tonight, Bridge acted as if the XMP files weren't even there.
    Solution: In Windows, to set a file association, you just right-click on a file (in this case the CR2 file) and select "Open With", and then navigate to Bridge (in my case Bridge CS5). That re-establishes the link between Bridge and its own XMP files. Then simply purge your cache and let Bridge rebuild it using its XMPs (which it can now find again) to rebuild the cache with the adjustments that are stored in the XMPs.
    I don't know how to do this on a Mac, but the principle is the same.
    I hope this solves your problem.

  • Current CS4 Bridge doesn't recognize Olympus E-620 RAW.  Why?

    1.  I have updated everything via Adobe updater (AUG 2009) and yet Bridge doesn't render the Olympus E620 RAW files as a thumbnail.    Does anyone know what in the world is going on? 
        This shouldn't be the case because adobe does support the Olympus E620 RAW files;  I'm able to use DNG to convert the E-620 RAW files to DNG.   The current version of ACR also is able to open up the E620 RAW files.    Thus, there is just some strange thing going on with Bridge in which it can't render a preview of the RAW file. 
    2.  Any help much appreciated because this is really driving me nuts. 
    Thanks.  Harry Shin

    Have you already tried to purge the cache. Point bridge to the folder with
    the icon files and go to the menu tools / cache / purge cache for folder.

  • I'm trying to send a jpeg from the Imac to a windows PC.  The windows PC doesn't recognize it as a "file" with the paper clip.  Why?  The same file from my iPhone makes it fine.  It is sent as "windows friendly" attachment.

    This is very frustrating.  I use Aperture and share pictures all the time.  The thought that some people can't download jpeg images I send them is very troubling.  As a test, I'm sending them to my work PC which is in front of me.  The file arrives and can be seen in the email, but it does not show up as an attachment and therefore you can't save it.  There's no paper clip in the file when it arrives.  When it's sent, it shows the number of files being sent and the size.  And like I said, if I send a file from my Iphone it arrives as a jpeg file fine on my work pc.  I have checked my default settings and they are set to "windows friendly attachments".  I'm not sure what "at the bottom of the email" means really.  This seems to happen wether I originate the request form Aperture or from the email program on my Imac.  Help!!

    No, that doesn't work for me.  And things seem to be inconsistent.  Where it lets you vary the file size (small/medium/large/actual) when large and actual are the same, it doesn't send the actual jpeg file for windows to open.  When large and actual size files are different when you toggle between the two, the file seems to go through to my windows pc ok.  When I tried this through preview, that's when I noticed this difference, not through just email or Aperture yet.  Help!

  • Bridge doesn't recognize color profiles

    Dear Adobe community,
    I'm using Adobe Bridge CS5.1 (4.1.0.54) and Illustrator CS5.1 (15.1.0), and I'm experiencing a very confusing and disturbing color management problem between these two applications. In short, for some unknown reason Bridge doesn't seem to respect or simply cannot read CMYK color profiles that I've applied to an artwork within Illustrator, but rather labels the file as "Untagged" and displays it with clearly desaturated colors. To illustrate the problem I've created some screenshots having Bridge on the left hand side and Illustrator on the right displaying the same illustration with various color profiles applied. That is, in each case I assigned different color profile to the image in Illustrator, saved the file and took the screenshot of Bridge and Illustrator both displaying the image. Now if you look closely then perhaps you notice that the only time I got a visual match between these applications was when I switched the file to a RGB mode within Illustrator. But even then Bridge did not recognized the correct color profile but interpreted it as "Untagged". Here are the screens:
    Bridge "Untagged" vs. Illustrator "U.S. Web Coated":
    Bridge "Untagged" vs. Illustrator "Coated FOGRA39":
    Bridge "Untagged" vs. Illustrator "Don't Color Manage This Document":
    Bridge "Untagged" vs. Illustrator "Adobe RGB":
    Hope you could see the difference from these tiny images. Looking from my monitor, I can tell you for sure that they are definitely off, except the RGB versions of the illustration. This made me surmise that perhaps Bridge can only display Working RGB profiles correctly and not anything else.
    Here's also my color settings, just in case…
    So... Why is that??? Why are these applications showing me different results while my color settings are supposed to be "Synchronized"? Is there a way to fix this? I have tried to play around with the settings and looked for a solution in the web but to no avail. Could you please help me to find a soulution to this disturbing problem?
    All the best,
    Juhani

    You may have used the broken global Purge Cache command in Bridge Preferences, or the cache is otherwise corrupted. Try Purging the Cache through the Tools menu in Bridge for each folder. Tools > Cache > Purge cache for 'foldername'.

  • Bridge won 't recognize nikon d300 raw files

    What is it with Adobe?  Every time I attempt to use their product I hit another road block.  First it was using LR and PS on a high resolution screen.  Then I purchased their monthly subscription and got multiple versions of PS, not knowing which is the newest and correct version to use.  Is Photoshop CC or Photoshop CS5 the newest version. Now I can't get Bridge CS5 to recognize my Nikon D300 raw files.  Has Adobe lost it's footing?   I am extemely frustrated with Adobe products and apparently so are thousands, if not million of other customers

    You can use the DNG converter to workaround this problem.

  • I'm using a Mac. When I tried to open my iPhoto library in Elements I get the error message "cannot complete request PE doesn't recognize this type of file"?

    I use a Mac. When I try to open my iPhoto Library in Elements I get the error message "cannot complete request, PE does not recognize this type of file." The import option only allows me import a "frame from Video"?

    You can't use iPhoto that way.  Poking around in the iphoto library from outside iphoto is just begging for trouble, the fastest way to corrupt your library and lose all your images.
    You have two choices with iphoto:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto. Save, never save as, and don't change the name or format and iphoto will remember your last saved edits and the original, although you have to lose the edited version to revert to the original. This doesn't work with raw files.
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, use File>Open in PSE and then you can make all the changes to name and format that you want. Then import the saved edited version to iphoto as a new file.

  • Bridge Doesn't Like Index Color .gif Files Over Networks?

    It's been a nightmare trying to navigate network folders with Bridge CS3 (Mac 10.5.3, 2x2.8GHz, 4GB ram) It's not uncommon to have to restart Bridge numerous times daily (tried all the fixes mentioned on these threads, and updated to the latest version of Bridge)
    I finally noticed it stops and gives me the spinning wheel every time it encounters a .gif file, so I removed those files from the folder, converted them to RGB and re-saved them as .jpg from Photoshop and bingo! Bridge cached the folder quickly and without incident.
    Is this issue documented anywhere? Is there any way to tell Bridge to just ignore .gif files?

    Just an update,
    I installed Apple's latest patch and Bridge is much more stable, but will still lock up anytime it encounters a network folder with .gif or .png files.
    But at least now I know how to avoid this issue. Maybe future versions of Bridge will allow users to select certain file types to ignore when caching.

  • Bridge doesn't seem to convert my files to DNG what am I doing wrong?

    I am new to Adobe Bridge and to Digital photography so please bear with me if I'm not asking the 'right' questions!
    Basically I have been asked by my uni to supply my photographs as DNG files and to do this via Adobe Bridge.
    I am shooting using a Sony a200 camera in RAW format and using the bridge to 'get photos from camera' I have checked the convert to DNG box but the files it saves do not have a .DNG appendix.
    Am I doing something wrong? or will DNGs keep their original appendix?
    I'm confused! I've tried googling this with no avail so this is my final hope. Help!
    Thanks
    Lisa

    Lisa,
    It's entirely possible that your files are indeed being corrected properly into raw DNG files but you don't see the three-letter extension because you have your Mac preferences set to hide all extensions—which is a terrible idea in the first place.
    Go to the Finder, and under the Finder menu bring up the Preferences dialog box, go to the advanced tag and make sure the "Show all file extensions" box is CHECKED.

  • Mac doesn't recognize shuffle and opening iTunes with Shuffle crashes Mac

    I recently updated to iTunes 7. Now my Mac doesn't recognize my year old shuffle when I plug it in, and when I open iTunes it freezes the Mac.

    I have been monitoring this forum on and off for weeks looking for a solution for my shuffle disfunction and this appears to be it.
    My shuffle would play songs and recharge on my iMac but would not be recognized by iMac by any of the expected means. This problem started after updating to iTunes 7. Tried uninstalling 7, and any of the other suggestions here that could work with out communication between iMac and shuffle, since the shuffle would not link to the computer.
    I had resigned myself to a shuffle that played only the songs currently loaded until it finally died. But, using the 06-06-28 updater worked for me as well, although it was a bit of a quirky process. Once launched, the updater immediately recognized my shuffle (first sign of life in weeks). When I chose the update button, it ran through an update but said there was an error after finishing and that I should disconnect, re-connect, and try again.
    Just disconnecting the shuffle mad the updater crash. I had to restart my mac, but when restarted my shuffle launched itunes and there it was. It appears to be fully functional again and I jut cancel when it says there is an update available for my iPod.
    Thanks djSTP!

  • Installed digital camera raw update 3.8, but Aperture doesn't recognize Oly E-P3 raw files

    I was excited to see that the digital camera raw compatibility update 3.8 purported to provide support for Olympus E-P3 raw files. I installed it from Software Update, and Aperture 3.1.3 (OSX 10.6.8) still showed the raw files as "unsupported". I restarted my Mac, got the same result. I downloaded and installed the standalone update, and again got the same result. Has anyone else had success with the update?

    I found a solution. My E–P3 raw files still showed up as “unsupported” after reinstalling the update from the standalone updater. I discovered that selecting one of the “unsupported” raw files and having Aperture reprocess it (even though it had never been processed at all) made the file recognizable by Aperture and allowed me to make adjustments to it. I then reprocessed all of my E–P3 raw files and the only problem I have noted is that the vertical files were not auto rotated.
    In reprocessing the raw files, I selected "only photos without adjustments" and "reprocess existing images". I hope this helps anyone who experienced this problem.

  • Bridge doesn't recognize CS5 products

    I recently installed CS5. Shortly after I noticed CS4 was still also residing on my hard drive, so I uninstalled CS4. Now Adobe Bridge CS5 does not recognize that the other cs5 products are installed. It won't open .psd with photoshop or .ai with illustrator, etc. Even if I right click and select "open with" I do not get the option to select the appropriate cs5 product. What's going on here?

    It is not a problem to have different version on the same computer, they are all seperate products even if labeled upgrades.
    Sometimes problems occur when the old version is uninstalled after the new version is installed.
    I would go to Bridge edit/preferences/file type associations.  Look at what is has listed for defaults.  If it is not CS5 go down to the bottom of page and press radio button to reset to factory defaults.
    Hope this clears it up.

  • Is there a way to Uninstall ACR 5.5 and reinstall 5.4? Bridge doesn't recognize this version.

    Hey there. Running Mac os x 10.5.8 on a MacBook Pro...
    I had to reinstall my whole CS4 Master Creative Suite because a couple of the programs went missing.
    First step was uninstalling all the other programs and preferences through Adobe unistaller, then reinstalled and did all the updates. (Photoshop is 11.0.1 now).  All updates finished loading successfully except that it was having trouble with the camera raw 5.4 update. It would say it was installed but when I checked the version in photoshop it would say it is the 5.0.0.178 version. So I updated the camera raw to 5.5 (because I use a Nikon D5000).
    5.5 plugin now works fine in Photoshop but in Bridge, the camera raw preferences is "greyed out" and I can't read any NEFs.
    Don't know where to go from here. The plugins folder in the root Library shows one plugin in the cs4 folder and that is the 5.5.
    When I try to install the 5.4 version again, it reads that it can't install because I am running a newer version.
    Thanks for your help. Got some NEF editing to do and this is a major obstacle....
    Johnny G

    Thanks Jeff. The full path is HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plugins/CS4. It was automatically installed.
    Also, the programs went missing because my computer froze and when I rebooted, any programs that were running at the time were no where to be seen, in the apps folder, in spotlight, the trash, etc. It's a mystery to me and I was a IT tech for quite a few years until recent. (Perhaps aliens abducted my programs.) That's the best I could figure out. Even my Entourage went missing and I needed to reinstall this and import an archived folder of mail - lost the most recent email...
    I bought this computer new a few months ago and have updated to 10.5.8 by the normal "software update" function.
    Purging the folders did not work because Bridge still does not recognize that there is a camera raw plugin installed. The "camera raw preferences" still remains "greyed out" when you click on the Adobe Bridge CS4 tab in Bridge.
    Also, when I go to the Adobe uninstaller, I'm not able to uncheck mark the box for the camera raw....
    Perhaps there is a link to just the 5.4 plugin (standalone?) that I can exchange for the 5.5? The camera raw folder in Application Support/Adobe has all the latest camera preferences including the D5000 which just was updated in ACR. So maybe just making a switch? Or is that too old school?
    Oh yes, created another user account, repaired permissions and any disk issues - yet, same problem.
    Thanks again!
    Johnny

  • LR 4 V 4.4:  Doesn't recognize Nikon D610 NEF files.  What is the fix for this?

    I have Lightroom 4, version 4.4 and it will not recognize the Nikon D610 NEF files.  This version recognizes my Nikon D800 NEF files.  What is wrong and what is the fix?  Thanks.

    I would expect lr6 to come out any day now though. Perhaps an idea is to use dng converter in the mean time? Don't want you to have to spend money twice in a short time.
