Bridge: Saving color changes in Camera Raw through final output.

Hello, I am on a Mac and I am trying to use Bridge's Camera Raw to do some simple corrections. I have made a collection to select the photos I want to correct. Now that I am done I am trying to do a Batch Rename and select those files to output to a folder on my desktop. Problem is when I do this the photos look unchanged like I did not correct it. How can this be resolved?

Yes, you're missing something.
Camera profiles are meant to account for different spectral distribution in different light sources, which is something else than different color temperatures. You still have to make all the normal adjustments, like white balancing, to get the image right.

Change Adobe Camera Raw background color

Anybody know how to change the background color in Adobe Camera Raw from grey to white?

Unfortunately there is no option for changing the background color of the UI for ACR. However, this feature is available in Photoshop and Bridge.

Uploaded through Bridge CC photos from my camera; went through the motions, not paying attention, but it did NOT save 'em where I usually save 'em; how can I ask Brindge or just the Mac Finder the last files I downloaded & where I saved 'em too? Oh, yeah, it ERASED the photos from my camera. I basically just need to ask my Mac (OS 10.8) where I downloaded 'em to. Thanks!

Uploaded through Bridge CC photos from my camera; went through the motions, not paying attention,
I'm not sure I do follow this, what do you mean with motions? can you specify this?. I assume you used Photodownloader? BTW, Not paying attention is usually not the best way when importing images...
but it did NOT save 'em where I usually save 'em; how can I ask Brindge or just the Mac Finder the last files I downloaded & where I saved 'em too?
When you import files they are written to your disk and therefor no need for save them, the files are already at your disk or written to the location you choose as destination. You could select your computername in the navigation column and then use the list view and choose the column last modified but this is not always showing the correct result. You could also do a spotlight search (or use the free Easy Find you can download from Devon) and choose to search for the extension you have shot your files in (Raw, jpeg??) and then choose modification date to sort.
There is not a log (at least not to my knowledge) that keeps track of all of your movements unless you have installed such application (don't know if there is one but I think there will be a thrid party or script written by someone). You could try Console (in the utilities folder) that holds your logs and reports but this is usually for crash or forced quit situations.
Oh, yeah, it ERASED the photos from my camera. I basically just need to ask my Mac (OS 10.8) where I downloaded 'em to. Thanks!
Well, this would mean you would have first select the option to do so in Photodownloader. While I use PDL on a daily base I always thought this option should not even be present to choose and you certainly should not use it to delete originals.
Like Curt already stated you have to use the camera software for this with the card in the camera. Either delete but preferable format the card. Mind you, this should not be done before you are sure where your files are written to and after you have checked randomly to see if the previews have build correctly for the newly imported files. Then you should make a back up of those files and only then start thinking about erasing or formatting the card for new use.
If you have not done very strange things (like choosing the card as destination but if so they might still be there- check finder in column mode- or wrote them to an external disk - where they also still should be) the files should be somewhere at your system. Just do an extensive search and if the files are really important check for recovering software for your card.
And follow the steps described above for importing, sometimes we need to learn our lessons the hard way (and I have been there too...)

How do you change PS Camera Raw dialog w/ Asian language to English

I think I was moving too fast using Bridge and accidentally changed a setting.
I opened a jpeg in Camera Raw within Bridge, made some corrections in Bridge Camera Raw, then clicked Done. Later, when I double clicked the corrected image in Bridge so that it would open in PS, the PS Camera Raw dialog opened with an Asian language interface.
How do you change that back to English?
To recap: Camera Raw is in English in Bridge, but Camera Raw is in an Asian language when I double click a Bridge-corrected file and open Camera Raw in PS.
Thanks for any help here!

Bridge CS5 will not open camera raw - but hangs!!

Just installed CS 5 web premium upgrade from CS4 web P - but Bridge CS5 will not open camera raw - it hangs!! - but camera raw can open via Photoshop ext. 64 bit on my Windows 7 pc.
Whats wrong???
Bent Medvind

In that case I would try resetting Bridge preferences by holding down Ctrl as you start Bridge.
Before that, ensure that there isn't a hidden copy of Bridge running under Task Manager > Processes.

Can only open some JPEG files in Camera Raw through Bridge CS3

I'm running Bridge CS3 version 2.0.0.975. I always edit my JPEG files through Camera Raw in Bridge CS3. I only have to Right-Click on the file and select "Open in Camera Raw...". However, I've come into a situation where some jpg files will not open this way; the option is not even there.
I have made sure to tick the box in preferences under Behavior "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge", and also tick the box under Thumbnails -> Performance and File Handling "Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF Files.
These files were originally 16bit Grayscale TIFF files, but I changed them to RGB 8bit JPEG files.
Also, I know the program works because I navigate to an older photo I worked which is a JPEG and the "Open in Camera Raw..." option is there when I Right-Click, but then I navigate back to the image I want to edit, and the option is not there.
Here are links to my screenshots of what I'm talking about. Both images in the last two screenshots are JPEG:

That's a fundamental problem right there, and a clue in all this. You should be able to see JPEGs in the Open As Camera Raw dialog.
What happens if you type in the name?
I'm almost convinced you have a file named .jpg but with a different image format inside. Can you put one of these files online for others to try to open?

Adobe Bridge cs5 V 6.0 camera raw problem

Hey guys I went to correct a few photos I took recently, Like anyother time I do this I open bridge find the photo I want then click open in camera raw...here is a picture of the photo in bridge no problem,
When I go into camera raw this happens to every photo, this one shows it the best but each photo I try and edit has this effect where the contrast of the picture goes from low to high... this problem just occured today, I did not install any new programs or change any settings at all... Please help!

this one shows it the best but each photo I try and edit has this effect where the contrast of the picture goes from low to high... this problem just occured today,
I'm not sure what your problem is but I suppose you mean the red color in the sky? This is a warning sign for highlights exceeding the visible range, like the blue color indicates the same for blacks.
If you bring back exposure you will see the red color change as you can do with other sliders.
Top left and top right of your histogram in Camera Raw you see a black and a white triangle with a square around it. If you click on triangle the square disappears indicating the warning color is set to off.

Color differences between Camera RAW 6.2 and Photoshop CS5

Hi,
I have got two problems:
Everytime I open a raw file in Camera Raw, the picture is a bit darker than in Photoshop. The difference is very annoying...
and, apart from that,
2. The pictures in Adobe Bridge look much more saturated and darker than in Camera RAW or Photoshop. The result of my research was, that I have to go to "Edit -> Bridge Color Pre-Settings" and choose the right color-management. But when I klick on the button, it says that the function is something like deactivated. Someone said, I have to buy the entire Creative Suite to activate this function? Is that true?
The color profile I work with: sRGB
I already updated Bridge, Camera RAW and Photoshop. But the problem still exists...
Does anyone know the problems and may help me?
Thanks a lot!
-Aldo

Thanks for your replies.
A few minutes ago I calibrated my display again. Now, the difference between ACR and Photoshop seems to be even greater.
When the calibration was finished, the software offered a before/after-button (Before and after calibration). The "Before-image" was much more dark than the "after-image". Just as dark as the photo is in ACR(!).
Maybe there's a connection. I think Photoshop uses the right profile (the profile generated by the Spyder2Express), but ACR uses some different wrong profile.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

Hmm, they should be the same.
How did you calibrate your display? Where did the display profile come from?
The profile called "Spyder2express.icm" was saved in C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color

Problem using custom color profiles in Camera Raw

Dear Adobe Community,
I've created a custom color profile using the DNG profile editor, and I've been able to open that custom .dcp file in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) through Adobe Bridge. However, when I apply the color profile to the same image, I do not get the same results as I get with the profile editor. When I open the "corrected" RAW file in Adobe Photoshop, the colors are the same wrong colors that I have in Bridge, am I missing something here?

Yes, you're missing something.
Camera profiles are meant to account for different spectral distribution in different light sources, which is something else than different color temperatures. You still have to make all the normal adjustments, like white balancing, to get the image right.

Bridge does not show my Camera Raw Adjustments in previews or thumbnails.

Bridge CS6 on my Mac is not showing my Camera Raw adjustments in a preview pane or thumbnail.
Here's how it worked until recently:
I open a .CR2
I make some adjustments
I click "Done"
The thumbnail and the preview show the adjustments I made
Now, it works like this:
Open a .CR2
Make adjustments
Click "Done"
The preview and thumbnail don't show all the adjustments. I can't see the results of noise removal, but I can see a drastic change in Exposure
If I double-click the CR2 file, it opens in Camera Raw, and I see all my adjustments, including noise removal.
Here's what I've tried, but saw no difference (I restarted Bridge every time):
Purge Cache
Purge Cache for Selection
Replaced Camera Raw plug-in as described here: Camera Raw 8.4 | No metadata or Camera Raw edit
     (Doing so made Camera Raw disappear in Bridge, so I restored the original file)
Reset Preferences
Reset Standard Workspaces
All the above fixes were inspired by this thread: Re: Bridge CS6 not showing Camera Raw adjustments
Why don't I see the noise removal effect in the previews? I am sure I saw it a few weeks ago. I rely on that, to help me sort and cull photos.
I'm hoping there's a preference toggle that I accidentally changed. It's definitely a puzzle. (Version: Bridge CS6 5.0.1.21 5.0.2.4)
Message was edited by: moonatwork after updating Bridge version. I tried all the above fixes again, after updating Bridge. It actually got worse. I tried replacing the Camera Raw plugin, which failed as before. I then restored the previous plugin, as before, but Bridge now fails to honor the preference, "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge" and instead always opens Photoshop.

Thanks, Omke. I tried updating, then applying all the same fixes to the updated version. No change.
I can attach a screenshot, but I must block out names and faces. All you'll see is my Bridge interface, not the faces in the portraits. Hope that helps.

Bridge CS6 insist to open Camera raw files via Photoshop CS6 instead of CC

Hi
I´ve trying to start using Photoshop CC instead of CS6. The problem is that my Bridge CS6 is opening Camera RAWs to Photoshop CS6 as a default instead of CC. I`ve changed Finder defaults and as well as Bridges own File type assosiations to use Photoshop CC as a default, but still it isnt working. I wouldnt want to delete Photoshop CS6 completely.
Any help, anyone?

Which version mac os x are you using?
If it's mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard, then post back before installing bridge cc.
I believe you need to install bridge cc so your camera raw files will open from the camera raw dialog in bridge cc to photoshop cc.
Also of note is the camera raw version for bridge cs6 doesn't have any of the new features that the bridge cc version of camera raw has.
If you open the the Creative Cloud Desktop.app, then you should see Bridge CC available for install.

When I use the command "Place in photoshop" CC from Bridge CC, it skips the Camera Raw Dialog box

I am having an issue when I use the "Place in Photoshop" command from within Bridge CC, it is skipping the Camera Raw Dialog box and not behaving like a normal smart object. This has been my workflow for years and suddenly it's not working in CC. Anyone have any advice? Thanks!

As far as i can tell, if you use Place>In Photoshop from Bridge with a camera raw file and don't have any other documents open, it skips the camera raw dialog, but does place (open as a smart object)
and then you can double click on the smart object icon on the thumbnail in the l;ayers panel to open camera raw.
If you already have a document open then Place>In Photoshop using a camera raw file opens the camera raw dialog before placing the photo.
Also check the photoshop>Preferences>General and verify you have Place or Drag Raster Images as Smart Objects checked.
The above behaviour seems to be the same in photoshop cc as past versions of photoshop, at least on the windows versions.

Photshop CC, Bridge CC, Flash CC and Camera Raw update (Windows 7 Ultimate)

Photoshop CC, Bridge CC, and Flash CC will not update. The error message says to obtain Camera Raw plugin update (Windows). What should I do?

Hi Michelle
I am new to the forum so I apologise. I should have mentioned in my update that the installer that fixed the problem was the ACR 9.0. I had originally used the 8.8 installer which caused the problem from ACR 7.1.
Initially the installer didn't work 64 bit version still had 7.1 but it installed ACR 9.0 on the 32 bit. I then proceeded to manually unzip the exe file ACR 9.0 and coped the 8bi file to the locations stated in my update. This didn't affect the 32 bit cs6 but completely removed ACR from the 64 bit. I re ran the ACR 9.0.exe file and everything was fixed.
I hope that this makes sense. I have now developed a problem on Bridge though. I can open raw file in photoshop but I can't view previews and the camera raw preferences are greyed out. I have read elsewhere that other people have had the same problem.

Can I convert DNG files which were saved as compatible to Camera Raw 6.6 and 7.1 to ones only compatible with Camera Raw 6.6 which would reduce their size from 60 MB to 20MB?

I have been converting my Fuji RAF files to DNG with Lightroom preferences set to make them compatible to Camera Raw 6.6 resulting in approximately 60 MB files. I found that by changing the compatibility to 7.1 only the files are only about 20 MB. Is there any way to reconvert the files to only be compatible with 7.1 and make them about 40 MB smaller? I have not been embedding the original files in either case.

Ah, it might ignore files that are already dng. It might work if you uncheck "Only convert Raw files" but I haven't tried that myself. If it doesn't work that way, try using dng converter and replacing the original (make a backup first) with the new dng file created by the converter. Lightroom should just start using the new dng if it has the same name and is in the same location.

Bridge and displaying Sharpening in Camera Raw.

Hello
Should the previews in Bridge CS5 and the slid show show sharpenig applied in Camera Raw?
Mike Engles

Hello
Thanks for the reply.
I have now noticed that if I apply a very extreme sharpening in RAW,
it does not notice much, if at all, in Bridge. If I use the loupe in
Bridge or zoom to 100% in the slide show, the sharpening is certainly there.
I would have thought that such extreme sharpening would be noticeable
on a 1920 by 1200 monitor in normal slide show or Bridge view.
Perhaps it is using different previews. The curious thing is that
some of my older images are using Adobe 2003 and these show
sharpening in normal Bridge view.When I convert to Adobe 2010, the
preview is rebuilt and the sharpening is no longer apparent.
All very puzzling
