Bridge not responding

When I am adding a keyword to a photo, Bridge hangs up. I have to Alt/Ctrl/Del to exit bridge. This happens fairly frequently.
Any suggestions?
thanks

please describe this problem in details:
1. Bridge version, CS3 or CS4? ACR version 5.1 or 5.2? windows version xp or vista? 64bit or 32bit?
2. photo format, JPEG, TIFF, or RAW format?
3. use metadata panel/Keywords field or use Keyword panel to add keywords?
perhaps you should try "purge cache for bridge". use "ctrl + open bridge" to pop up bridge resetting dialog, and then choose "purge cache"

CS3 bridge not responding

I have been using CS3 Bridge on Vista for over a year with no real problems. Recently I was using it to move some files around and it stopped responding to any command. I closed it via task manager and reopened it. It opened but did not respond to any command and did not preview any photos. I tried reinstalling and then uninstall and reinstall. No help. I went to CS3 via an upgrade from CS2. When I tried the reinstalls I was using the CS3 upgrade disc. Any suggestions to get CS3 Bridge functional again?

The prefs an caches were damaged. Reinstalls don't touch them, so nothing got fixed. You will have to manualyl delete them/ move them out of the way and let the program create new default ones...

CS5: Bridge not responding

When I open the mini bridge then select browse files, my favorites, recent folders, etc do not contain any files. In the content box below it says "waiting for bridge cs5..." and doesn't respond. Does anybody have an idea of what is going on?

I have this same issue, and in services, switchboard is stopped and cannot be started - Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. I have looked at hundreds of messages about this, and tried many of the solutions with no luck. Permissions seem fine, switchboard ini was recreated, etc.

Bridge NOT RESPONDING... re installed PS but still not responding... any Ideas??? (Windows, 64 bit)

Hey glennboyes,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with connecting to the iTunes Store. The following articles may help to resolve your issue:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
"Error 3000" through "3999"
Alerts with codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the gs.apple.com server on ports 80 or 443. This may be because out-of-date or incorrectly configured security or firewall software is interfering, or due to your Internet proxy settings. If you are using a proxy, try removing the proxy settings, or using a known-good network. If that does not resolve the issue, follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Thanks,
Matt M.

CS4 Bridge not responding

I'm having issues when trying to open a photo in CS4 64-bit via Bridge. I'm running the latest version (11.0.2) on win 7 64-bit. My system has been running just fine for about 6 months up until about 3 weeks ago. Using Bridge I try open a pic to do some editing and Bridge just stops responding. If I use windows explorer to open a photo then I also have noticed that whenever I close PS that the photoshop.exe service is still running in task manager and another PS session won't open until I click end process on the existing instance. I don't know if the two isues are related but I thought I'd mention it just in case

Well if overheating is an issue it is certainly not caused by dust inside my pc. I have an Antec 300 case with an intake filter that I clean about every 2-3 weeks. Plus when I installed the TV tuner card about 3 weeks ago I blew out what little dust was inside the case. But I'll check it again just to be sure. I'll try reloading the GPU drivers again but I doubt it'll help since I've essentially already done that. I am a little concerned that MB is crapping out but more concerned that the onboard GPU is going bad. Other than a little flickering my only problems are with photoshop so far. I know that the flickering is not my monitor because I hooked it up to my lapton and I saw no flickering. I also tried switching from DVI to VGA to see if the connector made a difference and it did not. I haven't tried the HDMI yet. I've been trying to figure this out for the past few weeks with no success yet.
I'm thinking that I've got a bad GPU or driver and/or a software problem. Considering getting a PCI-X video card to see if that makes any difference.

Mini Bridge not responding on PS CS6 on Mac

I have installed PS CS6 on my Mac and the link between mini bridge and bridge fails to respond. Message comes up on mini bridge 'waiting for bridge'. I have re-installed the software but still no joy - is anything switched off in preferences? Can anyone help please.

I would recommend by starting with the Adobe Support Advisor - http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/. It will automatically review your installation logs and attempt to locate solutions.
Alternately you can view the installation logs yourself by following the directions listed in Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

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.

Adobe Bridge CS5 Not Responding

Periodically I will click from one folder to another folder in Bridge CS5 and it causes Bridge to freeze and give me a "Not Responding" message. I have never had a problem when running a batch or image processor through Bridge, just when clicking from one folder to another folder. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? If someone could explain it to me in a very simplistic form I'd appreciate it!

If you are building cache when you go to a folder, a spinning arrow in lower left corner, and then click on another folder before the process is finished Bridge can balk. You can get a contaminated cache to foul things up. To rebuild the cache for a folder click tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder.
You might compact the cache (edit/preferences/cache) to reduce its size and make it run more effeciently.

Adobe camera raw will not respond in bridge cs6?

adobe camera raw does not respond in adobe bridge? I am trying to open Jpegs, which i have previously been able to do so by right clicking and opening in adobe camera raw. Now it is unresponsive.

You are definitely in the wrong forum for Bridge CS6 and Adobe Camera Raw. You have posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing focus).
You probably want to be posting in the Photoshop Forum.
http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop
My preliminary findings suggest possible workaround
a. Open camera raw in Photoshop 5 or 5.5 and then open edited raw image in Bridge CS6
or
b. There is a preferences route to check out.
Not being a Photoshop user, this is a quick suggestion where you might start looking. This is apparently a known issue.
The Photoshop users should be able to give you all the details and options you have for workarounds for now.

Bridge CC 64 Windows 8.1 not responding

Installed Bridge CC 64 on a new computer running Windows 8.1.
Intel i5 - 4440S
8GB Ram
Intel 4400 Graphics
Installation went fine. Opens a little slow but what ever you click on, pull-down menus, Computer, Folders I get a "not responding" error at the top of the screen. After about 15-20 seconds the action clicked on will finally work. When I log out of my profile and log into the guest log in, Bridge work fast and perfect. There must be a program or file conflict in my regular profile that is interfering with Bridge. Any ideas where I can start to look?
Thanks

Could you see whether Firefox will start in its Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
Here's how:
With Firefox closed, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Does that work?

CS5 not responding after opening Bridge and Camera Raw

I have been using bridge, camera raw and cs5 since it was released. I have not any problems until this morning. I am able to open Bridge and Camera Raw, but when trying to open PS CS5, it does not respond?
Any suggestions?

Try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776?tstart=0
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

Getting "Not responding" message and bridge freezes

When launching Bridge CC on a PC with Windows 7 it gives a "not responding " message in the title bar. If left alone it will eventually open, but is incredibly slow to go to another folder, gets hung up and gives the same "not responding" message.
It opens to the same folder every time, even if left off at another folder.
I have uninstalled Bridge CC and reinstalled and still get the exact same problem. Also have done registry cleanup and other PC maintenance.
Does anyone know of a solution?

Perhaps someone close (geographically) can give you a hand?
[http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows/view-cpu-utilization-performance-information#1TC=windows-7 This Windows Help article] explains how to check for resource use on your PC.
What I described is a one-step test in Thunderbird: ''On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". '' This would help determine if the problem is among an add-on installed in Thunderbird.
If that doesn't show improvement, the problem is not within Thunderbird but elsewhere in the system. Starting the computer in Safe Mode then helps confirm if the problem is in Windows (and not specifically in Thunderbird).
I understand you may not be comfortable doing this by yourself, perhaps ask someone close to help you in person, by showing them our answers here.
