Bridge doesn´t show preview of tif-images

Hi,
I uses Bridge CS6 on a Mac with MacOS 10.9.2. Suddenly bridge doesn´t show previews of Tif-images. It´s also impossible to fill in any metadata. The program also says that the image isn´t tagged with any color profile. I don´t have these problems with jpegs, only with Tif-images. I even get previews on the RAW-images. Does anyone know what the problem can be?

I guess I have to try to reinstall the program.......
I'm 99,99 % sure that won't help solving your problem because to possible being effective you also should use the Adobe Clean tool to get rid of a lot of the hidden files that just stay put during a normal reinstall. But if you want to do something easier instead of reinstall, quit Bridge and go to the user library (by default hidden per OSX 7, use Finder, menu Go with option to reveal this library)
In the preferences folder is plist file for Bridge (com.adobe.bridge5.plist), drag this file to the trash. Then in same library go to the folder Caches / Adobe/ Bridge CS5 and inhere delete both plug in and folder called Cache. (this means recaching the previews and thumbs).
Then restart Bridge holding down option key and again choose 'reset prefs'. All previous deleted items will be replaced with new, fresh and empty ones and you have an almost like factory settings Bridge without the need of reinstall.
But I really suspect it comes down to the Tiff files so maybe also a reset of preferences in PS might be worth a try.

  • [solved] Nautilus on Gnome doesn't show preview img of any video file

    Nautilus on Gnome 2.24 doesn't show preview image of any video file. Images are normal. Somebody have this issue too?

    Nautilus uses Totem and Gstreamer codecs to show video thumbs. Maybe a reinstall would solve the problem. Actually, I have no idea other then this.

  • Thumbnails in Bridge don't show adjustments made to image

    I have Photoshop CS4 on a Macbook Pro, OS 10.6.7.
    After I open a raw image (DNG & PEF) in Bridge and make adjustments, such as cropping or adjusting exposure, the changes do not show in Bridge thumbnails after I close the image.  It thumbnails work fine with jpeg and TIF images. I have reinstalled Photoshop CS4, but it did not correct the problem with raw images. How can I fix the problem? Thanks.

    I have selected the fastest thumbnails without success. I can just save the
    image as a TIF and see the changes.
    Choosing the prefer Embedded thumbnails is what it says, it shows the thumbnail that is embedded when you have created it. first with the camera, after that saving as a new file (e.g. tiff) creates a new embedded thumbnail that shows the changes if you saved the file that had changes to it.
    As long as the thumb is surrounded by a thick black border it has not cached as preview with or without ACR settings.
    If you have the Path bar in Bridge active (see if under the menu window there is a checkmark in front of 'path bar' you will see at the right side the little checker board icons most left of the row. The left checkerboard icon is for 'embedded thumbs only the right icon gives you the option HQ on demand and Always HQ.
    If speed is really such an issue you could choose HQ on demand but to be honest, if you wait a little longer with the setting Always HQ and let Bridge do its caching first you gain more speed in the following process of searching and selecting files, because they already are HQ and don't need to build previews or reflect settings after you have changed those

  • Importing into Lightroom with card reader doesn't show previews

    I am using Lightroom 2.4 with Adobe 5.4 Raw on a Windows XP based laptop -- however the problem I am having also presents on my desktop which also uses Lightroom 2.4 with Adobe 5.4 and Windows XP.  In fact the issue is completely the same on both computers:   When I try to import photos directly into Lightroom using a card reader, the interface opens, but does not show the previews -- and yes, the show preview box is checked.  The preview boxes are there, but they are completely greyed out.  If I use the same card reader but direct it to open into Photoshop Elements it shows the previews and it also shows them in Bridge for CS4. So clearly the problem doesn't lie with the computer or card or cardreader.   It seems only in Lightroom that the previews do not show up.  Adobe raw supports my camera which is set to shoot raw and it also makes a JPG copy, but neither show up.
    I spent more than an hour with a tech trying to get this to work and didn't solve the problem.  I'm hoping that someone has some bright ideas that will help me out.

    I tried to respond before, but I think the message didn't go through.  Sorry.  Because my Lightroom hasn't been working the way it is supposed to, I have been doing what you suggest -- saving the photos from my card reader to a file through Bridge -- which does open the previews -- and then importing them to Lightroom.  But it means one extra step and Lightroom's strength is supposed to be work flow, so I would like to get it to work properly.  I think that if the card reader were faulty -- and the problem occurs with several different card readers -- that it wouldn't show the previews in Bridge or even Photoshop Elements, which it does.  So I think there is some problem with Lightroom, not the card reader.  Any other suggestions?  I'd be happy to know about them.  Meanwhile, thanks for your reply.

  • Since recent CC upgrade, Bridge doesn't show colors of labels. What gives?

    Hi All,
    Just upgraded CC and all of a sudden all the thumbnalls in Bridge show white bars instead of labels on the thumbnails. When I go to the Filter I can select to view only those with green, red, or whatever, so the information on what the color is is there. Is this just my problem or is it a bug? This is the Mac version running Mountain Lion on a 13" retina display.
    Thanks,
    Ed Merrin

    Thanks, Omke. You helped lead me to a trail that solved the problem, although how it came to be is not too clear. I thought it would be good for me to describe the specifics in case someone else encounters this.
    Briefly, I have used the label colors for years, through multiple versions of Bridge, to help organize and sort through images. It has become second nature to me. I recently went traveling and came back and began sorting through and labeling my new images. Everything seemed fine, but in retrospect I was paying attention to the color of the label and not the name attached to each color.
    Eventually the time came to do something with older files, and that's when the problem surfaced. All the labiels were white. When I looked at the filter panel, the thumbnails in the browser would be correctly identified by the text name of the color,but no colors would be displayed. For instance, if I selected the word red (but with a white circle next to it), only the "red" thmbnails would be in the browser, and the same for any other "color." So they could be identified, even thought here was no way to tell them apart visually by label, since they were all white. On the other hand, the newer files, although they had red or green etc under the thumbnail,were identified as something else. Specifically, red was "Selected," and other colors had other terms I can't remember. The transition was easy to find. All files labeled from October of this year to the present had the new monikers and showed colors, whereas everything before (back to 2006) were white.
    So I went to the preferences, and lo and behold each color had a word next to it (as I mentioned above red was "Selected") instead of the name of the color, as it had been before.
    It was much easier to change the newer files than thousands of old ones, obviously, so I changed the preference panel by typing the color names in to replace the other categorie names that some greater authority had apparently invented. Bingo, all the old files now had color labels and it was the new ones that were white! That was easily fixed by changing labels of the new files in the drop down menu to the appropriate color name  (the colors names were unavailable until I changed the preferences).
    Apparently, around the end of September or early October my preferences were changed, probably after an update, and I never noticed. Previously, whenever I  updated Phtotshop/Bridge the preferences were carried over without any intervention from me.
    So go figure.

  • Only safari doesn't show the home page image - why?

    Hello
    Wonder why the home page image/masthead doesn't show on the home page, ONLY in Safari/mac - every other browser shows it. Would love a fix.
    Thoughts?
    thank you

    Thanks very much for the thoughts - I redid that alternate masthead for ie5.5 and updated the link - yes, now the ALTERNATE banner shows but NOT the image I need, which does still show in other browsers. Only in Safari does the alternate masthead now show, but not the main masthead needed.
    Below is the code that directs the image for ie 5.5 but why would this affect Safari?
    =============
    using System;
    using System.Data;
    using System.Configuration;
    using System.Collections;
    using System.Web;
    using System.Web.Security;
    using System.Web.UI;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
    using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
    public partial class DefaultPage : BasePage
    protected void Page_LoadComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
    if (!IsCallback)
    // IE 5.5 isn't able to render the dynamic menu items correctly if
    // the size of the header image is too large. To work around this problem,
    // IE 5.5 gets a different header image than the other browsers.
    if (Request.Browser.Id == "ie55")
    mastheadImg.ImageUrl = String.Format("~/Images/homepage/masthead9.jpg", Page.Theme != null ? Page.Theme : Page.StyleSheetTheme);
    mastheadImg.Height = 206;
    litHeaderHeight.Text = "206px";
    ===============
    Also, here's the code that fixed the Safari fly out menu problem but has caused Safari to not show the proper masthead/image. Any thoughts?
    =====================
    using System;
    using System.Data;
    using System.Configuration;
    using System.Web;
    using System.Web.Security;
    using System.Web.UI;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
    using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

    /// Summary description for BasePage
    /// </summary>
    public class BasePage : Page
    public BasePage()
    protected override void OnPreInit(EventArgs e)
    base.OnPreInit(e);
    if (this.Request.ServerVariables["httpuseragent"].ToLower().Contains("safari"))
    Page.ClientTarget = "uplevel";

  • Adobe Bridge Doesn't show all files in a folder

    I am using a MacPro with 8GB of Ram and 1TB HD running Mountain Lion.  I have a network folder that has about 320 GB of files in it.  This is spread out between about 255 different Illustrator files.  When I view them in Finder, all the files show up.  When I view them in Bridge, I can only get 200 to show up.  If I click refresh, it goes to a different number. If I repeat, it changes again.  This worked on the old Machine but doesn't seem to work on the New one.  I'm guessing its a setting but can't seem to find that particular one.  Has anyone ran into this?  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    While Bridge is not assigned for use over a network your problem seems cache related to me. When in a problem folder go to the menu tools / cache / and choose purge cache for folder and see if this helps you.

  • Bridge CS6 - extremely slow preview updates and image deleting

    1. Updating previews (100%) is very slow.
    Bridge CS6 has problems updating the previews of images that get edited.
    While creating preview from scratch is rather swift, updating previews takes about six minutes on a MacBook Pro retina with 16Gb RAM.
    After one minute the preview gets updated,  but then the busy signal in the low left corner just keeps turning and turning for five more minutes.
    Why is this happening? Is Bridge still busy with those previews? Why? The preview has already been updated, why those extra five minutes of business?
    2. Image deleting is painfully slow.
    You type Command + Delete, and nothing is happening for five, six seconds.
    Only then the images get deleted.
    Has anybody else noticed these two hold-ups?
    Edit:
    I just went back after writing and editing this post, and Bridge is still busy with the preview update. This is now 15 minutes after the image had been edited. The busy signal in the lower left corner just never turns off again.
    It feels like Bridge has also problems working in the background. As soon as you open e.g. a browser to bridge the waiting for bridge, Bridge seems to keep the busy signal rotating, but not actually doing anything until you close the browser again. Which is why I just had a 15 minute wait for an image preview to finally update. The time spent in the browser did not "count".

    Hi Noel,
    Yes, I did the upgrade, and I did not experience any problems.
    Only, the issues above were not fixed in the update.
    Are you not experiencing the same issues? (I'm on a Mac).
    C. Pfaffenbichler, I was actually looking for a dedicated Bridge forum, but I couldn't see a Bridge icon.

  • Finder doesn't show that a disk image has been ejected.

    I am having an issue with finder in Mavericks. When I want to eject a disk image, I click the eject button and nothing happens. I can drag it to the trash, same issue. It just sits there. I think it is ejecting the disk image because I can right click and remove it from the sidebar, then trash it and empty the trash without issue. Finder just doesn't seem to show that it has already ejected.
    Mavericks was done from a clean install (made a USB flash install drive, formatted, installed from there). All system updates are current.
    Anyone have an idea in what I can try to fix this? Not critical, but annoying.

    You can try dialing *228 and choose option 1 to reset your network settings - if that doesn't work then perhaps a call to customer service will help.

  • Smartform doesn't show preview when the records exceed the main window size

    Hi
    When i print the smart form having line items exceeding the main window size on the page it does not show the preview. The internal table loop goes into infinite loop. Is there any means whereby if the records don't fit on the main window of the page will be continued to the next page. Right now I have no clue how it is to be resolved. I feel the problem is in layout, as when i remove the main window the internal table code works fine and it does not move in infinite loop. Please help me resolve this issue.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi
    I have deleted the table from main window and instead inserted a loop.
    Also i created the two pages. But the problem still persists.
    But for my requirement my each line item in the main window has 3 lines.
    Also my layout will be the same for all pages so is there a need to create a new page.
    Is there any mechanism whereby if the line items dont fit on the mainwindow of the page will automatically continue on another page without having to define it.. please guide? Right now the smartform goes in infinite loop if it doesn't fit in main window size
    Thanks

    I have only used Acrobat Pro, not Standard. Does Standard have a Content Pane? If so, I would try selecting each content element on the page till I found the image, and drag it above the text elements in the content order.
