Can't view thumbnails in Bridge

I'm running Windows 7 (64 bit), have downloaded the most recent RAW update (4.6) for CS3. I'm able to open RAW files and work with them---just can't view the "thumbnail photo" in Bridge---makes it difficult to view and edit files. What am I missing?? Thanks!

If purging the cache doesn't work, the ACR plug-in (which is called Camera Raw.8bi) may be in the wrong place.
It should be in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS3\File Formats
There is another plug-ins folder in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\ Adobe CS3 folder. If the ACR plug-in is in there, delete it.

How can you view/work on image in CC while still viewing thumbnails in Bridge?

Just switched to CC from CS5. Cannot open an image from Bridge into Photoshop while still viewing thumbnails in Bridge. Killing my workflow by having to reopen Bridge after processing every image in Photoshop. Using two monitors. Another huge frustration: I cannot get Photoshop to open image on secondary monitor. Any suggestions? About ready to cancel subscrition and go back to CS5. Thanks!

Get Info on the file and expand the little "Preview" space in the getInfo box

Can't view thumbnails in cs4 photoshop or bridge

Hi,
I can't view cs2 or DNG files thumbnails in CS4 photoshop or bridge. I'm using vista 64 home premium and recently had to reinstall cs4 on a new disc. It worked fine before on my old disc but now it doesn't.
I've searched through the various topics on this, I've only got one copy of the correct file (Camera Raw.8bi) in the correct folders, CS4 is shown in the bridge / edit / prefs / file type associations.
I can click on a file and it opens in bridge but I just can't see the thumbs.
One point though - the DNG convertor states that it needs camera raw v 7.1 or later so maybe that's why I can't read the dng file (even though I can open them) but it doesn't explain why I can't see the cr2 files.
Any ideas?
thanks,
Doug

Can't view thumbnails of tif files...

Bridge CS4 was working fine before I installed a new OCR software program. Now I can't view any thumbnails of files saved with a tif or tiff extensions. I checked the file type and it is associated with Photoshop CS4, not sure what has happened or how to fix it.
Any help would be appreciated...

Not a computer geek, but this shot tells me the file is not a tif but an omniPage file.
I googled omnipage and came up with this. Hope it is helpful and you have not already been there, done that.
Looks like this is for XP, but if you have Vista procedure should be similar.
Question
I've just installed Omnipage Pro. I've discovered that it has altered
all of the image file associations on my machine. (God, that ****es me
off when they do that!)
Answer
Click the "Restore" button in the File Types dialog, and click OK. Then to
fix the association settings, try the fix from here:

I'm using Iphoto 11. I can only view the thumbnails but am unable to view the picture in full screen.

what happens?

Please Help. I can't view thumbnails on Iphoto '08 after backing up

Hi,
Today I backed up my photos on Iphoto '08 to my external harddisk and deleted the photos on Iphoto afterwards on my macbook to save some space.
Now, having added new photos to my Iphoto library I can't view the events in thumbnails view.
I've already tried to rebuild the Iphoto '08 library with no success.
If I format my macbook will it solve the problem?
Please help me!
Many thanks

After I made a archive copy, I renamed the archiving copy "Iphoto Library old"
then I went to Iphone Library on my macbook and put that in trash.
Then I pressed the option key and opened Iphoto and created a new Iphoto Library.
Iphoto was working fine. I've imported new photos to my Iphoto, but when I go in to the Events,
I see one single photo each time, not all of the photos of all the events like before.
I add photos to my library pressing the import button after connecting my digi cam to my mac.

Can't open raw images in CS2 after install, can't see thumbnails in Bridge

I hope you guys can help.
We just purchased an Acer laptop computer, picked it up yesterday. Hubby is going to use this strictly for working on his pictures when out of town. He didn't even plan to hook it up to the internet. It has Windows Vista Home Premium, 2G of RAM, 120G of hard drive and a CD/DVD player/recorder. I installed Photoshop CS2, Nik Sharpener, Neatimage noise remover and Huey Pro Calibrater onto the computer last night.
When I opened Photoshop & Bridge, opened a DVD of some RAW images, Bridge would not show the thumbnails and I couldn't open any in Photoshop. In Bridge all that showed was a light blue box with CR2 over it and the file name below for each image. When I tried to open one I got a "Can not complete process due to a program error" message. I did open a jpeg image into Photoshop from the ones included in my documents and had no trouble with that. I didn't acutally try to do anything with it so I'm not sure that any of the options in Photoshop actually work, although they were all active with the jpeg image.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to correct these two problems?
Thanks for any help I can get, Linda

Thanks John,
I actually went into Photoshop and ran the update. This gave me the current Camera Raw file 3.7 and an update for Bridge. I downloaded it and it is installed in Photoshop. This gave me thumbnails for the images taken on our Canon Rebel XTI, but not the Canon 30D. I went to the Camera Raw Update page on adobe.com. Found the 30D back in update 3.4. Shouldn't the latest update have all the previous updates included. As I understand the instructions, you are just supposed to replace the older version of Camera Raw with the newer. Will I have to install each update in order to get the support for my camera?
This leads me to another question, I downloaded the 3.4 and was following the instructions for installing it. It says to go to My Computer, open C, or disk with files installed, then navigate to Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS-2\File Formats. My computer wasn't exactly like this, but I did get to the plug-in for Photoshop CS-2. After getting there, move existing Camera Raw.8bi to another location. Copy the Camera Raw Plug-in from the download into the same folder. See why is seems that the current version should have all previous updates?
Anyway, got to the Plug-in file and there is no Camera Raw file in it. I went through all the files in Adobe Program Files that looked like it might have it in it; bridge, ImageReady, and shared files. No Camera Raw to be found. I did open Photoshop up and double checked that it was showing up in the Plug-in list. Yep, it was there. Why can't I find it in the Program Files?
Sorry this is so long, I wanted to check everything I could before replying. Sure hope I can get this straightened out. Linda

Can't view thumbnails or edit recently uploaded photos.

In the last few rolls that I uploaded from my camera, the photos do not show up as thumbnails. I can see the photos if I choose "show file" but these can only be viewed in Preview and not in iPhoto. I have tried to copy them back into iPhoto but the program tells me that they are already in my iPhoto library.
Basically it seems the files are in my computer and iPhoto recognizes them as being in the library but I cannot view or edit these pictures. My other photos from past uploads are fine.
Any suggestions?

To repair disk permissions you launch Disk Utility (located in your Applications/Utiities folder), select your HD icon on the left and then click on Repair Disk Permissions.
Permissions are the Unix access control to files. it's what you can set manually on user files in the Info window. Disk Utility fixes and sets those parameters on system files and applications. It's wise to do so after any software installation or update.

Can't view thumbnails, files all JPEG

After installing Photoshop Album SE, every photo I have ever taken was converted to JPEG format. Now, when I go to attach photos to an email (using Yahoo), I can't see the thumbnails (just a JPEG icon). I can't see them in My Computer either.
What is going on? Can I get the old file format back? Should I uninstall the program?
Thanks.

> After installing Photoshop Album SE, every photo I have ever taken was converted to JPEG format.
Sorry. That is impossible. PSA SE does not change the format of anything. JPEG is the usual format out of digital cameras.

How can I view thumbnails with Acrobat?

I don't know if newer versions have this feature or not. I have Acrobat 9. When I search for my files inside the folder, either in Acrobat or Microsoft Explorer, I can see the icons in my folder, I can make them larger or smaller, but .....they're still just Acrobat icons. In one folder alone, I have 100 business cards I scanned. To find the right card, I'd have to click on each and ever one to find the right person.
Isn't there some way that I could click on a document, and it show me a thumbnail of it before I open it?

That sort of preview feature comes from the OS.
Be well...

Can't view raw files in Adobe Bridge CS4

Hi,
I bought a new iMac OS X version 10.8.5 . I have a Canon 5d Mark ii and I shoot in RAW. I installed CS4.. I also downloaded the newest version of the camera raw plug-in (5.7). I placed the plug-in in applications--> adobe photoshop CS4 -->plug-ins--> file formats.
In Bridge, I can only view the grey thumbnail that says CR2. I can click on it and it'll open up into camera raw where I can edit some and then open it into photoshop. I want to be able to view the images in bridge to know which ones I want to open up in camera raw. Also, when I right click on the thumbnail there isn't an option that says "open in camera raw".
Should I also place the camera raw plug-in in the applications-->Adobe Bridge-->plug-ins?
When I click on about plug-ins on photoshop, it's showing me 2 camera raw plug-ins.. version 5.0 and version 5.7. I can't find 5.0 to delete?
Thanks

If you just go to Help>Updates, Bridge should take care of this for you, unless you've managed to get multiple copies of the plug-in into the folder. If you manually installed things, check to see that there is only one plug-in there, then let Bridge do it for you.

Can't view photos in Adobe Bridge

Hi Everyone,
I just upgraded to a desktop, Dell Inspiron 3000 Series with Windows 7. I uploaded my Photoshop CS6 onto my new computer, but I cant view my photos on Bridge. No thumbnail previews, just the name of the photo.CR2. I can however view my Tiff files
Any idea how I can fix this? Would greatly appreciate the help, need to be able to see my photos soon!
Mahalo,
Maria

So, you can't see your RAW files. That probably means you have not applied any updates after installing CS6.
You have to update BOTH Photoshop and the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in. That should work through the Help menu in Photoshop: Help > Updates

Can't view Sony RAW (.ARW) file in Adobe Bridge

Hi all,
Need some assistance here.
I'm currently using Photoshop CS3 and Adobe Bridge.
I've installed the Adobe Camera Raw update version 4.6.
With this, I'm able to do the relevant editing with the Sony Alfa raw files (.ARW) in Camera Raw.
But the funny thing is, when using adobe bridge I can't view the thumbnails as I view it in camera raw / photoshop.
The thumbnails is "blank". This only happens on .ARW files. I'm able to view jpeg files in thumbnail.
When I check the camera raw preferences in adobe bridge, it shows me it's 4.6.
I'm currently using Mac OS X (Leopard).
Do any of you faced this before?
Hope that any of you could shed a light on this matter.
Thank you in advance.

Have you figured out a workaround for this? Most of the forums regarding this issue
are windows related or full of arguments. I'm guessing there may not be a solution to this problem so I'm curious what approach you're taking.
Thanks!
