Bridge won't save ratings

Hello all,
I'm having a problem with Bridge and star-ratings. It basically ignores them completely when I try to set them. No matter what I try to set them to, they remain blank.
I'm using Bridge CS6 which I got from Creative Cloud, and it is up to date, on Mac OS X. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks Curt Y. Under 'run as' there was two options both of which were noted as administrator - though I could only use one as we don't have the password for the other. I'm not using an external drive.
The strange thing is that there is no problem applying the metadata to images, just mov files.

  • Bridge won't save changes made in Camera Raw, no idea why this started happening. Details below.

    Once I've selected images to edit, I can make changes in Camera Raw, but then as soon as I hit the 'Done' button, I get the error message "Unable to save the raw conversion settings. There was a write permissions error.". Why? I am the only user on this computer and I have no idea why I would not have permission to access my own work. I could use this fine a few days ago, now everything is not working. I'm using a late Sept 2013 MacBook Pro 15" with OS X Mavericks and the newest software version of Bridge. Please, can anyone help? I need to edit wedding photos and have them done by next week and at this rate I'll have to refund them for all the work I've done. And I can't really afford to do that.
    Any advice at all would be great.

    First, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility.
    Then verify that you have Read and Write permissions to the folder or volume you are saving to.

  • Bridge won't save metadata for .mov files

    Hi.
    I could be trying to do something that Bridge can't do (though I have read that it should). I am trying to add metadata to .mov files. Bridge allows me to enter the text both under 'File info' and in the Metadada IPTC Core fields, however when I 'apply' or click OK they don't save.
    Well, in the IPTC Core when I click 'apply' they are there until I select another file then go back and they aren't.
    I am using Bridge CS5 on a PC with XP.
    Thanks

  • Windows 7/Bridge won't open files in Photoshop CS6 (cloud)

    I recently got the cloud CS6 and installed photoshop cs6, then uninstalled CS5.5. But now, Windows Explorer cannot seem to find Photoshop. If I try to associate the default for any file (.jpeg, .tiff, etc.) with Photoshop, Photoshop does not show up on the list of programs. I must browse to find  Photoshop exe (CS6 64). I click okay, but it continues to open the file in Windows picture viewer and to associate that file type with Windows Picture Viewer.
    If I right-click on the file, it does exactly the same thing. I must browse to Photoshop.exe. But it still opens the file in Windows Picture Viewer.
    Fix 1 Try Bridge Associations: I opened Bridge CS6->Edit>Preferences and made sure the files were associated with photoshop. But, when I then try to open the files from within Bridge, I get the message Windows cannot find c:Program Files\Adobe\AdobePhotoshop CS4 (64Bit)\Photoshop.exe. (my emphasis)  But I haven't had CS4 installed for years. I did not have this problem when I installed CS5. So now I can't open files from either Windows explorer or Adobe Bridge.
    Fix 2 Fix the Registry: So, I opened Regedit and went to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and changed the (Default) from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" . Don't know why the install left this at CS5.1. It SHOULD have changed it. EUREKA! Windows now recognizes Photoshop CS6 and I can associate files with it as usual. But I had to manually associate the native .psd file with Photoshop. along with .jpeg, .tiff and other image files.
    No Fix for Bridge: But back in Bridge CS6, it's not so rosy. I still get Windows cannot find c:Program Files\Adobe\AdobePhotoshop CS4 (64Bit)\Photoshop.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. If I try File--Open with--Photoshop (default), I get the same message. Clearly, Bridge thinks Photoshop CS4 is the default, and I don't know where to change that association. Preferences does not allow browsing. So Bridge is pretty much useless.
    So what should I do about Bridge?
    Bridge CS6 still won't open Photoshop CS6. It's still looking for CS4. I thought about reinstalling Bridge, but when I try to download it, the cloud tells me it is is already installed and won't download. I am a little worried about uninstalling it and trying again. Maybe, I'll end up with no Bridge at all. I am beginning to regret my decision to go cloud. Don't know if the install mess is just cloud or noncloud versions as well. Doesn't seem to apply to all programs either.
    Postcript:
    I had to go to the registry and manually change CS5.1 to CS6 for InDesign and Illustrator as well, and then manually associate .indd and .ai files with those programs. What a pain this is. Obviously, the install program didn't change the normal associations to CS6. Left them with the CS5, and then when I uninstalled that--as anyone would normally do--it lost the association completely.

    Thank you David__B! Your suggestion worked perfectly. All the files are correctly associated in both Explorer and Bridge. And it didn't take all that long, mostly uninstalling. The Adobe App Manager very efficiently installs several different programs with very little fuss.
    I am not sure, but I think it may have been an old plug-in to Bridge back in the CS4 era that I didn't even know I had that was causing the Bridge file association problems. Uninstalling CS5 after installing CS6 seems to be causing Win Explorer problems, not just for me.  Based on this experience, I would recommend that anyone with several previous installations of Adobe CS do the following:
    Save your plugins and preference files in a back up file.
    Uninstall all the old adobe software.
    Run the the cleaner you suggested. (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html).
    Install CS6 programs from the CCloud or wherever.
    Add your plug-ins back in as you need them one at a time to be sure they work.
    If you have already installed CS6 and are having file association problems, just uninstall everything and start at step one. You probably won't save time trying to fix the registry and manually associate file types--- yada yada yada.
    Steps 1-6 will give you a nice clean install and salvage only  good plug-ins.

  • InDesign CC Won't Save File

    Running InDesign 9.1
    Mac 10.8.5
    I have been using InDesign CC just fine with no issues. I have one file that I have edited for at least a couple of months and have had no issues. All of a suddent today, it won't save. It has all the options to save, but never will actually save. A co-worker can open and save it with no issue, but now I can't. Any thoughts?

    It's a known issue that you can have problems saving an InDesign file if you've dragged and dropped from the Finder or from Adobe Bridge.  It's expected that there will be an update to fix this and other performance issues before too long.
    In the meantime, using File > Place instead of drag-and-drop.

  • Voice Memos won't save my recordings?

    I'm in college so I usually record my classes for further detailing, but I just recently discovered that Voice Memos just won't save my recordings like 2/5 of the time. I already lost like 4 important ones for the past 3 days.
    The thing is that I see it recording, but it just doesn't save it, and it's just sitting there at 00:00:00 with the name tag I had put. I want to die.

    - Does you iTunes library already contain a Voice Memos playlist?  Some users have had to manually create it in order for the sync to occur.
    - Also try resetting your iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Photos won't save to camera roll

    Since I installed iOS7, all the pictures I take with the camera won't save to camera roll. I see them in the lower corner of the camera but when I click on it, they are not in the camera roll. In the camera roll, I just have a bunch of pictures that I deleted months (or years!) ago. I uninstalled my profile and reinstalled it two or three times with always the same result.
    All the settings are ok.
    I installed the profile of a friend on my phone to test it and everything works fine with his profile.
    Anyone can help me out with this issue?

    bluetooth is an APPLE issue: they have blocked many of the 'normal' bluetooth features on 'other' handsets..
    an example you may be thinking of is Sharing a photo via Bluetooth .. simple everywhere else, but can not be done on iphone
    -you have to use it via an app such as iphoto, or send it attatched via an email, from the iphone.
    stupid, annoying, yes.

  • My iPhone 4 refuses to save pictures and at some instances, delete my existing pictures. I take a picture, and then go to camera roll and look, but it doesn't show up. The same thing happens when I try to screenshot things; it won't save.

    My iPhone 4 is severely making me mad. It won't save any pictures I take. I will take the picture, then go to view it in the Camera Roll, and it just won't be there. The same thing occurs when screen shotting things on my iPhone. Some times it won't even let me delete the existing pictures I had on my phone before this all happened. I will click delelte, then it will pause, and eventually close me out of the photos app. However, when I go to settings, it says I have 440MB of pictures on here somewhere. But I can oly see 3 pictures in the camera roll. Also, it says in the camera roll app that it is 'Restoring...' then just sits and loads and won't restore anything at all. HELP ME PLEASE. I have iOS 7.1 currently installed.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format

    HP Officejet Pro  8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format
    The scanner scans the document without a problem but when I select 'SAVE' and
    specify a location and file name, a system error 'The HP scan application was
    unable to save the file to the specified location'.  It will save a regular PDF file
    or a  JPG file with no problem, but trying to save an searchable PDF or .rtf file
    results in the above mentioned system error.
    This problem occurs either from HP SCAN or from the 8600 scan panel.
    The computer is running Windows XP and the I.R.I.S. OCR software is
    loaded.

    Hello TrailsEnd,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're receiving an error message "The HP scan application was unable to save the file to the specified location". I will do my best to assist you!

  • Logic Pro 9 won't save, hangs and quits??

    I have just installed the latest software Logic Pro 9 with the latest update.
    It won't save it hangs and quits??

    First of all, you are still in Learn Mode, as the button on the bottom right is still darkened. Click it so it becomes lighter, meaning learn mode is no longer active. Then proceed to delete all the assignments, in your screenshot I can see the top message is assigned to A#1 (look at the "input Message" values on the right). But the rest of the assignments do not look like you conciously made them, it's a bit of a mess. You should be aware that cmd-L opens the CA-window, and engages Learn Mode, meaning that whatever is the very first MIDI message you send will be "learnt" as a controller assignment, and it will no longer be availbale as regular MIDI. That's how notes can "disappear" if you're unaware of this function. To open the CA window without engaging Learn Mode, use cmd-K.
    (and clicking on the smaller picture will present the full size picture, no need to add that extra link.)

  • Updated Firefox won't save my preferences; reverts to original settings.

    A few days ago, Firefox updated itself to the 18.0.1 version. Now, each time Firefox updates itself, I tend to lose some of my preferences, those being: opening new tabs as a blank page, tabs being on the bottom, and showing my windows and tabs from last time. Usually, though, once I go and change these things back to the way I like them, they stay like that and I have no further problems.
    However, this time Firefox won't save my preferences. The tabs go back to being on top, the tabs I last closed aren't there, and these tool bars I don't want keep appearing. Instead, three tabs are always there upon opening Firefox: Welcome to Firefox, Mozilla Firefox Start Page, and Yahoo! Toolbar. Also, when opening a new tab, the page says, "page does not exist" or something, and the URL is not even comprehensible, just random letters like someone bashed their head into the keyboard, something like: "jkfui87$^&%$$09."
    I've tried resetting Firefox like it says in the "How to fix preferences that won't save" page, but it didn't help. As for deleting certain files from the profile folder, before I resetted Firefox, I only had "user" and "prefs" and "Invalidprefs" which weren't exactly what that self-helping page asked for so I didn't delete them. After I resetted Firefox I lost the "user" file, but I still have the other two. Should I try deleting them even if they're not exactly like the page describes? They are missing the ".js" part so I haven't felt comfortable messing with them.
    Please give me some advice. I'm tired of having to go change my settings in "about:config" each time I open Firefox. But I really don't want to try anything that would delete my bookmarks or history, as I'm very dependent of them.

    Obviously no one here actually READS these things, I tried all of that even did a clean install, even uninstalled all user data and THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE!
    Your help is completely useless, All you people do is copy and paste the same thing over and over. If it didn't work the first 20 times it's still not going to work no matter how many times you copy and paste the same fucking link.
    You have lost a die hard fan of Firefox, I am switching to another browser.
    Unfortunately I tried older versions of Firefox and had to go all the way back to Firefox 4 and now the problem is fixed.

  • IDVD won't 'Save as...'

    I've just upgraded to iDVD 7.0.1 and my main project now won't 'Save as...' or 'Archive...'. If I select either of those items from the menu, the program instantly crashes, without even a Crash Report Form to reply to Apple.
    Oddly, I can 'Save', so there's an obvious workaround: duplicate the project file in the Finder, then use that to work with.
    I've restarted the machine, obviously, and checked everything I can think of. Is anyone else finding this bug?

  • Samsung 1630w won't save as pdf

    After all the hassles with 10.5 and an hp1012, I just got a Samsung ML1630W. It is wireless, set up with airport (11g) no problems. But it won't save as pdf (in print). It says go to file>save. I hate to jinks a new printer that works, but it seems apple released samsung drivers when leopard came out. I was wondering if this might work. I think this printer is a newer model, though. Any ideas or work arounds.

    Oh, probably just a distiller hiccup. Glad to hear it works now. I have had my share of Adobe background processes problems, too, and I wouldn't have thought to reboot right away either. Make sure to mark this question 'answered' when you get a chance.
