Bridge Freezing, Not Displaying Thumbnails, Says Disk Space is Low and to Purge Cache

Hello,
I'm working in Bridge CS5 on a Mac 0S X version 10.9.2. I have 12 GB of RAM and the server has 240 TB capacity, 76.69 available.
Recently I've received the following error message while processing large photo shoots with both DNG and JPEG files: Bridge is running low on memory. It is recommended that Bridge is restarted.
I have also been manually caching large photo shoots and my cache preferences were set to Keep 100% Preview In Cache and Automatically Export Cache To Folder When Possible. My cache size was set to 500,000.  Yesterday, Bridge started to freeze while attempting to open folders. The wheel would spin at the bottom with the message Compiling Criteria. The only way to close Bridge was a Force Quit. This happened several times.
Today, image thumbnails will no longer display, only the DNG/JPEG icons. I received the following error message:
I have tried restarting Bridge while holding the alt/Option key to reset the preferences and checking all three boxes - no luck. I have done the same thing with the boxes unchecked - no luck.  I have tried manually purging the cache from its location in the library - no luck. I have tried resetting the cache preferences from the toolbar - no luck. I have tried deleting the cache files from the folders - nothing changes. I have tried purging the cache for each folder from the tool bar - nothing happens.
I need to restore the thumbnails and rebuild the cache for each folder. Does anybody have an idea what is wrong or how to help?
Many Thanks!

Okay, so I have a solution. If after purging the central cache on the server Bridge continues to not perform normally try emptying the trash. I did this and it worked.

  • Bridge CC not displaying thumbnail/preview large PSD (win7)

    Hello!
    Latest Bridge CC, will not display thumbnail or preview of many of my large (1.5-3gb) PSD files.
    1) I have PURGED CACHE in Prefs
    2) I've individual cleared cache for individual PSDs.
    So, I just see the generic icon.
    My only reason for even using Bridge is to visually select from my large PSD/TIFFS without having to open them first.
    I'm pretty sure these same files previewd when I was running CS6 Bridge.  Lightroom 5's import will show the preview.
    Thanks

    It was strange since the thumbnails work in CS5.1 and 6
    Then you must have set them before to a larger amount, I believe the default is 1000 MB and has been so for as long as I can remember
    But I'm not sure about the generic icon because usually it shows a low quality thumb with black border, like the ones you get when using 'Prefer embedded' as quality.

    To detail the steps, please do as I describe:
    Important
    This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the
    registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry,
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Back-up-the-registry
    To open the Registry Editor, please press Win + R, type regedit in the blank box, press
    Enter. / Or we can type regedit.exe in Windows 8.1 Search, you'll find it easily.
    Now the Registry Editor is open.
    Then we see the pane on left, expand the following path:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
    Then we can see a list on right, find Cache, right click on it, click
    Modify..., under Value data, change the value to something like
    C:\Windows\Temp, click OK.
    Exit Registry Editor.
    As for "You might also right click on the file with file explorer, choose Properties, then General tab and click on the Unblock button." Just find the file, right click on it, choose
    Properties, under General tab, if you see a
    Unblock button, click on it.
    "Some of our customers found it sometimes a permission problem.
    cmd  => dcomcnfg" Do the following:

  • FLVs created with ADOBE MEDIA ENCODER CS6 do not display thumbnails in ADOBE BRIDGE CS6

    Could you please attempt to shed some light on why FLVs created with ADOBE MEDIA ENCODER CS6 do not display thumbnails in ADOBE BRIDGE CS6, yet apple finder is able to display thumbnails for these same FLVs without issue?
    I'm running CS6 Production Premium with ALL updates installed on 10.6.8
    I appreciate any input and help provided the input is provided by someone who either
    A) knows the answer because they actually work for adobe
    B) actually tried this themselves before attempting to provide a solution
    If the conclusion is that it is a codec issue or a header issue with the FLVs You'd have to present a very strong case to back that claim up as it makes no sense whatsoever that CS6 is unable to generate thumbnails for media encoded using CS6, yet Apple finder can without issue. NOT to mention the FLVs in question are CREATED on the same machine with the same codecs installed that is trying to generate previews in Bridge.
    Apologies if my frustration is showing, I've gotten and seen several... incompetent replies on this forum regarding this issue and it has never been actually addressed properly as far as I can tell by Adobe support.

    We are all just incompetent users here.  As pointed out before this is just a user to user forum, Adobe rarely checks in.
    I was hoping by now you would have gotten to the bottom of this problem and were offering a solution.

  • .NRW files not displaying thumbnails in Bridge

    .NRW RAW files from Nikon P7800 do not display thumbnails or metadata in Bridge. PsCC, Bridge and CR 8.3 are all showing as up to date on CC Desktop App. Files display correctly in Lr 5.3. Any suggestions ?

    I have:
    PhotoshopCC>Edit>Preferences>CameraRaw>8.3.0.141
    BridgeCC>Edit>CameraRawPreferences>8.2.0.94
    The computer found  6 files  named Camera Raw.8bi.  They are in pairs , two in the CS5 folder and two in the CS6 folder, two in the CC folder. One of each pair has >Program Files(x86)> The other one has  >Program Files>.
    When I go to C:\ Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC\File Formats\ only one (Camera Raw.8bi) file shows. This was created on 18 March 2013 and modified on 3 December 2013.
    If I go to C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC\File Formats\ another (Camera Raw.8bi) file appears, created and modified same date and time as the first one.
    Is this making any sense ? Thanks for your help.
    It appears Bridge is using CR 8.2, the question is why and how do I persuade it to preference CR 8.3
    By the way, I failed to mention it previously CR is converting and editing the NRW files normally, I just can't see their thumbnails in Bridge.

  • LR 5.5 upgrade. I only get the the 32 bit set up and an error when the 64 bit set up should be created. It says not enough disk space and no access to write. The disk space is ok and the 32 bit file was indeed created.

    LR 5.5 upgrade. I only get the the 32 bit set up and an error when the 64 bit set up should be created. It says not enough disk space and no access to write. The disk space is okay and the 32 bit file was indeed created. I have Windows 7 Home edition.

    Hi Rob, Thanks for your input. The temp location is on the C drive with 228 GB free space. My other drives have 123 GB and 204 GB of free space. I can see how the 32 bit set up is perfectly extracted when it stops when coming to the 64 bit set up. I have done the exercise several times and also made new downloads. I am using Norton 360 and Malwarebytes anti-malware but the dowload from Adobe should be trusted.

  • Finder is not correctly reporting available disk space

    finder is not correctly reporting available disk space
    my drive is 50% full but finder shows there is only @ 35% left
    the difference is more than anything needed by the system
    any ideas on what is causing the problem?

    Try this:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • Bridge CC not displaying video files

    Bridge CC not displaying video files - I just installed the new Bridge CC and I am unable to view and play my video files.  The files are Quicktime files.  The title of the file is displayed with a QT logo, yet no video is registered.  Has any one else has had this issue or has any advice?

    This is still not working for me as I've opened another question regarding this here: .mov thumbnails not showing up for Bridge CC on Mac OS X 10.10.2?
    I can view my Quicktime .mov thumbnails in Bridge CS6 but not CC. I have all the latest Adobe CC and Mac OS X 10.10.2 and QT 10.4 updates. I've removed the media cache folder and purged my cache - every possible fix I've seen on the internets and still, no thumbnails for .mov files in Bridge CC. I've toggled the "Generate Monitor-Size Previews" and "Keep 100% Previews" to no avail. I'm working on an important video project for a client and this is the first video assignment I've worked on with CC and so far, it's not working out well.

  • Cannot print to pdf -There is not enough memory or disk space to repaginate this document

    I don't know if this is an Adobe pdf issue or just a Word 2013 thing.
    But I'm now using Word 2013 on Win 8.1, 64 bit, 8Gs of Ram and when I go to print a few select pages of my document a message pop out at me saying
    'There is not enough memory or disk space to repaginate this document'.
    When I had Win 7, the same amount of Ram and Word 2010, I print incrementally to pdf okay. Granted, sometimes certain pages print blank and I have to print it again after restarting the computer but at least I got stuff printed to pdf.
    Now I go to print to pdf as little as 1 single page and that message just pop right up like a really bad penny. As far as I can tell, Adobe is up to date unless I'm missing something.
    Has anyone ever had this issue and got it resolved?

    Thanks TSN.
    (how to check if Ram is full )?
    the memory is 8 G Ram. I only have office 365, Acrobat X1 pro, Gimp, and Inkscape installed. The problem was there before I installed the last two.
    I posted on Microsoft as well and the response was that since I could print the document on regular printer without any issues, then it is an Adobe issue. Using the toolbar is pdfing the full document. That takes a very, very, long time besides at the end of it, many pages are blank in the pdf file and then it is a matter of restarting the computer, re-pdfing until I am tired. So I print the pages incrementally.  Any other way to pdf select pages without any problems?

  • Bridge will not display my image.

    Here is what I get when I try and view an image in Bridge. It has been working fine and then all of a sudden I can't view images.
    Thanks!

    You folder is "building criteria".  THat means it is compiling all the metadata on the images.  You also have the message on the bottom "disk space is low".  This could mean your cache disk is full or if you do not have a seperate cache disk your general disk is getting full.  You should have 10-20% free disk space for system to operate correctly.  For the math challenged if you have a 700 gig drive that would mean 70 to 140 gig of free space.
    Dumping the cache will help, but it will have to be rebuilt.

  • "There is not enough memory or disk space..."

    I am trying to open a .docx file with Word 2004 version 11.6.6 (purchased). However, I always get a message saying, "there is not enough memory or disk space to convert this document" when there is plenty of memory. I have a MacBook Pro version 10.6.8. I downloaded the .XML conversion app. from the Microsoft website to no avail.  However, I can open the same file on my PowerMac G5 also with Word 2004 and the same .XML conversion app. I downloaded for my MacBook Pro from the Microsoft website.  I checked the conversion log of the .XML converter and it says:
    Start time: 2012-02-05 00:12:59 -0500
    Converting file: /Users/xxxxxxxxxxx/Downloads/Formulario-Guía Observación de la Escuela-4.docx
    objc[1541]: Class NLAssertionHandler is implemented in both /Applications/Open XML Converter.app/Contents/SharedSupport/wordcvtr and /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office Converter Support/Open XML for Word.framework/Versions/12/../../../MicrosoftComponentPlugin.framework/Versions /12/MicrosoftComponentPlugin. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.
    Conversion failed
    End time: 2012-02-05 00:13:01 -0500
    What gives?  Is the file I'm trying to open corrupt or is there some kind of update I need for my Office Word program?  How can the file be opening fine on one of my computers, but not the other newer one? 

    I also run Word 2004 and OS X 10.6.8 and have a .docx file that the Microsoft Open XML Converter 1.2.1 will not convertet, yet the same problem .docx file will convert fine on a 10.4.11 OS X Mac.

  • "Not enough memory or disk space" -can't be true

    I'm trying to open a doc file with images. The size of file is 1MB - when I try to open in word or double click on it I get this message; "There is not enough memory or disk space to complete this operation" - which makes no sense. Could the file be corrupt? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Yes. This file is probably corrupt. You may be able to open it "as text" and recover the text.
    "Out of memory" is usually a catch-all error message that almost never means what it says.

  • Can I move cache to external hard drive to save disk space for photoshop and bridge?

    Can I move cache to external hard drive to save disk space for photoshop and bridge?

    So could I take everything off my external hard drive, save it to my Mac, then re-format it for my Mac and move everything back to the external hard drive?
    Yes. Keep in mind that you need to back up all data, including the data on an external drive. So if you're going to use the external drive to store original data, as opposed to backups, then you really need another one to back up the first one. You also need to back up the data on your internal drive, of course. This isn't optional. You must do it, or you'll lose everything sooner or later. All disk drives fail eventually, often with no warning.
    If I do that how do I format the external hard drive for my Mac?
    Launch the Disk Utility application and search the built-in help for "erase."
    Would it be easier to just buy a external hard drive that is for a Mac?
    All external hard drives work with Macs. Some might come pre-formatted for use with Macs, but it only takes a few minutes to do that yourself.
