Can you rename files in Bridge and relink in InDesign automatically?

I have a 250+ page InDesign file with 800+ links to images.
The problem I'm having is the images have French file names.  I want to remove the French text and rename the images to English.
If I rename the images in Adobe Bridge will the Indesign links remain?
I'm using CS5.5

Unfortunately no.
But fortunately there's a script!

  • Can't label files in bridge, and problem with starred files

    I'm working with CS3 on saving raw files to jpegs, and I usually organize them by 5 starring my favorites as well as labeling them, and just in the last 2 days Bridge has been acting up and won't label the files. Also, it will 5 star them, but only about a 1/4 of them show up in the filter as being starred. Any ideas? I already checked my access, and I can read and write to them.... the only thing I can think of is that I ran a few updates a day or two ago.... help! this is getting really frustrating and slowing down my workflow...

  • Can you link files between illustrator and photoshop and maintain layers?

    Want to be able to open an AI file in photoshop, maintain the layers I have in illustrator and be able to edit the AI file and have those edits automatically appear in photoshop.  I think this is possible.

    Do you mean you want an Illustrator Smart Object’s Layers represented as Photoshop Layers and still be linked to one ai/pdf file?
    If so I have to disagree with your assumption:
    I think this is possible.
    While Photoshop Smart Objects have Layer Comps capabilities in Photoshop CC 2014 Illustrator Layers (and pdf Layers) are quite different from Photoshop Layers.
    What exactly are you trying to achieve?

  • How can I orf files in bridge and photoshop cs4

    I have downloaded the latest plugins but still can't open raw files form my OMD-E-m5

    OM-D E-M5
    ORF
    6.7, 7.1
    That camera was supported for the first time in ACR 6.7 which requires CS5 to run.
    Your options are to upgrade to Photoshop CS6, CC or CC2014, or to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG converter 8.6 on each batch of raw ORF files in order to convert them to raw DNGs that you can then open in your CS4 installation.
    Note that you will be leaving a lot of image quality on the table if you go that last route as significant improvements have been made to ACR in the latest versions.
    Just a clarification in general, not necessarily referencing this or any other post:
    Remember, you are not addressing Adobe here in the user forums.  You are requesting help from volunteers users just like you who give their time free of charge. No one has any obligation to answer your questions.

  • Can you move files back and forth between an iPad and a PC using iTunes?

    If I read this article correctly, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094 I should be able to connect my iPad to my PC, fire up iTunes and then on the Apps tab in iTunes I should be able to click on an app, Pages for example and then just drag files onto the Pages Documents column from a Windows Explorer window.
    This is great.  I was hoping to use DropBox but it is such a hassle I don't know why people are so thrilled with DropBox on iPad.  If I can just move files back and forth using iTunes that should be fairly easy.  I wish there was a way to just upload my files to iCloud from my PC but the iCloud control panel app for Windows only seems to connect Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. I want to be able to just carry my iPad and not have to deal with a computer. 
    I thought that they said that you didn't need to have a computer to have an iPad.  I guess if you have a computer and then GET an iPad its a different story, unless you have a Mac of course.
    Anyway my question is: can you move files back and forth between a PC and an iPad using just iTunes?

    I still need to do some trial and error testing with DropBox and my iPad.  But can I link my iPad to my DropBox account so that I can always see the files on DropBox when I open Pages on my iPad?  I just want one place to store my documents, and iCloud doesn't seem to be up to the task when it comes to opening a fil;e, editing it and then saving it back to iCloud.  I just want a networked storage location that works like a networked drive on my LAN.
    I realize that hollywood and the music industry are up in arms about file sharing on the Cloud which is why so many things are made more difficult than they need to be.

  • MD5 Checksum Changes When Renaming Files in Bridge?

    Just like the title says: MD5 checksum seems to be changing when renaming files in Bridge
    Is this normal? Is there anyway to disable this? Checksums do not seem to change when renaming a file outside of Bridge (ie; in Windows Explorer or Mac Finder).

    P.S. System is Windows 7 using Bridge CS6 (64bit)

    Thanks for the quick reply Curt.
    Until you just now asked the question, I could not explain why it should not change. Now, if I understand correctly after googling around a bit, it appears the hash can be computed either with or without the filename (among other things).
    Apparently Bridge computes the hash including the filename. It seems there is an option to compute the hash based only on the file contents (ie; without the filename). My assumption was that by default, the checksum was generated using only the files contents (ie; without the filename).
    I'm hoping someone can comment definitively on how Adobe Bridge does it and whether or not there's a way to change it.

  • Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I am operating with CS4. Photoshop produces an error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

    Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I have operating with CS4. Photoshop produces and error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

    Assuming you mean 5D Mark III, Photoshop CS4 cannot directly open raw files from your camera.
    Generally speaking, Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras when they released a new major version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS4 is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
    You can double check this yourself:
    First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    If you find your camera is supported by your version of Photoshop, you need to download the latest update for Camera Raw. There's more information on how to do that here:
    Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
    If your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
    Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
    The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

  • Can't rename files on an external harddrive,

    I import my pictures into Lightroom using the following format YYYYMMDD - XXXX.  For example, a picture with a file number 2113 taken on Dec 16th, 2011 would be ranamed 20111216 - 2113.  I import them to my computer first and then move them to an external hard drive when the storage on my computer gets tight.  For a while, I accidently was adding a space to the front of my file name, so it would import as " 20111216 - 2113" instead of "20111216 - 2113"  notice the space at the beginning file name.   This space was maintained when the file lived on my computer, but it was removed when I moved the lightroom folder to my external hard drive.   As a result, all of the files that are on the external hard drive show up as "missing or deleted."  Light room thinks there should be a space in the front, but none of the files on the hard drive do.  I have to locate each and every file by hand, and the "find nearby photos" check box doesn't help, because all the files are missing the space.   Is there a way to batch rename files in lightroom, even when the file is missing?  I need to change all the names in my catalogue to take out the space at the front so I can then easily locate the files on my external hard drive.   Can someone help me out?  There has to be a better, faster, easier way to do this other than individually locating each and every file on my external hard drive.
    Thanks for your help,
    matt

    Lightroom can't rename files while they're missing.  If you batch rename the files on the external hard drive, to include the space again, LR should find them and then you can rename them within LR to remove the space again.

  • How can I rename files without creating a duplicate?

    How can I rename files without creating a duplicate?  And secondly, for some reason I can no longer save pdf files [i.e., bank statements] where I want - the Save As function is gone?

    In many new cases, Save As is now called Duplicate in ML. It uses the same command-S keystroke. Older apps still have Save As. When you do a Duplicate operation, you will create an UNTITLED document. You have to save that duplicated document to complete the process.
    So in 10.6.x, you would do ...
    * Save As ...
    * Give the file a new name + Chose the location for the file
    * Click the Save button
    Now in 10.8.x, you do ...
    * Duplicate ...
    * Save ...
    * Give the file a name + Chose the location for the file
    * Click the Save button
    As baltwo mentioned, you have to search the Preferences of your browser to determine what is has set for the default Download folder.

  • Can you save your own theme and button set up so I can use the same format

    Can you save your own theme and button set up, so I can use this same format for similar content. I want to keep the button content and the theme the same without having to create it everytime? I am trying to streamline the process for multiple dvd's with the same menu and buttons but different content. Does that make sense?

    I am only new to this caper too, but I am pretty sure you can save a theme as a favourite by pressing the "save theme as favourite" button under file. If you have edited an existing theme but don't want to lose it, make sure you untick the replace existing button.

  • Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same macbook pro?

    Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same MacBook Pro?
    Specifically, I used the Migration Assistant to move music and photos from my old PC to my new MacBook. 
    Somehow, I missed the fact that it was creating a new user account when it was doing this.  So none of music and photos are in the user account I originally set-up.  Instead, all these files are now in a different account.
    I'd like to consolidate all my files on the one user account and delete the other one.
    Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it?
    Thank you.

    you can crop files from one account to another using the Public Dropbox which every user account has.  Log into the user that has the files you want to move, then drag the folder you want to the new users' dropbox:
    I suggest a small scale test on a few files first before moving gigabytes of files.

    How can you rename your iPod in iTunes 11?
    I am using a Mac and an iPod Nano (the old longer one)

    Double-click the name in the device summary screen to get a cursor, and edit the name. In previous versions of iTunes, you could change the name by clicking it once.
