Cannot run batch directly from Bridge

Hi,
I often work from Bridge and use the TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP>BATCH or TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP>LOAD FILES INTO PHOTOSHOP LAYERS
This works well except it has just stopped working for no apparent reason. When I try any of the commands under TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP, photoshop will launch or become active but then just sit there doing nothing.
This has thrown a HUGH spanner in my workflow and is driving me nuts.
I have tried deleting Bridge/photoshop prefs etc but nothing seems to help.
I'm guessing it has something to do with Bridge startup scripts or something.
I can batch via the Photoshop Automate menu but this is nowhere as efficient for me - I then have to hunt for the files etc.
Weird how it did work then not. The only change I made was installing a new version of ACR, but that was a week or so ago.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks.

SOLVED!
I renamed the folder containing my files and it now works. As far as I can tell there was something corrupt in the folder name - it was originally COPY>PASTed from an email, so maybe there was a hidden character or something else weird that confused Photoshop when it tried to run the script.
Weird.

Cannot run batch program from Java Application

Hi All,
Im trying to run a batch file under windows from my Java Program. The batch file is located in the following path:
C:\Program Files\MyApp\runme.bat
The above-entioned path contains white space which is not allowed in NT.
Im trying following code:
import java.io.*;
public class Exec {
public static void main(String args) {
try {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start C:/Program Files/MyApp/runme.bat");
}catch(Exception ex){ ex.printStackTrace();}
How to run this file?
Thanks in advance.
Ketan Malekar

or use the overload that takes an array of strings as argument
String[] command = {"cmd", "/c", "start", "C:/Program Files/MyApp/runme.bat");
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);

Running Batch Actions in Bridge causes PS's Preferences window to open repeatedly

I just upgraded to CC at work, and ever since I've had a problem when I batch run Photoshop Actions from Bridge.
I have some simple Actions set up in PS to do some conversions for large batches of images (convert to RGB, resize, change DPI, etc.). But when I run them from Bridge like I always have, it causes Photoshop to open the Preferences window to the "Units & Rulers" tab. And that, unfortunately, pauses the batch conversion until I close the Preferences window. This happens at least once per file, but usually twice. Pretty annoying.
I never had this problem when I was using CS6, but just in case there was some sort of incompatibility with my old Actions, I remade one of them in CC, but the Preferences window still pops up.
This only happens when I run Batch Actions from Bridge. When I run the Action on a single file from PS, it works fine.
Any ideas? Maybe I've found a new bug?
Thanks!

BTW, I was able to get around this problem by opening all the files I wanted to run the Action on using Bridge, then manually triggering the Batch dialog via Photoshop and using the 'Source: Opened Files' option:
Using this system, I didn't get any errors. Luckily, I also didn't have a huge number of files. If I did, I'd probably have to copy them all into a temp folder using Bridge, then run using 'Source: Folder'. Definitely a pain when they are all right there in Bridge ready to be batched.

Batch developing from Bridge

How do I batch develop my edited images that were open in Bridge and edited in CameraRAW? Normally I have to then open those images it PS only to save them as JPGs which feels like waste of time. Can this be done directly from Bridge?
yaro

Another option is to select the files in bridge and open them in camera raw. Select All, then Save Images (button at bottom of camrra raw).

Why do dialogs open for javascript actions when started from a batch operation from bridge?

I have a fairly simple script (written in javascript) that duplicates the current document and
does some other manipulations. I also have recorded an action that executes this script.
When I run the action manually, everything works beautifully. When I run the action via
the batch command from bridge, every operation in the script brings up the associated dialog.
I am obviously missing something, but what?

Make sure you have this line at the begining of your script...
app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;

Emailing directly from Bridge

How can I email directly from Bridge? I have CS6

You could do it in CS3 but the option does not seem to apprea in CS4. Very strange. For CS3 go to Tools>Photoshop Services>Online Portfolios and Galleries>Share photos with flickr.

Upload pictures directly from Bridge to Flickr or other photo sharing site.

Upload pictures directly from Bridge to Flickr or other photo sharing site.
But flickr is the most important. Many people are searching for a plugin or patch or something to be able to this.
Because of that many people are using Picasa because you can download a plugin for it and then with this plugin you can upload photos to flickr directly from picasa. Please make it also possible in Adobe Bridge.
I am using Adobe Bridge CS3 with latest updates.
Thank you.

DBMS_JOB.RUN: cannot run a job from a job

I'm trying to set up a job to automatically run every October 1st. The "submit" part of this job is pretty simple, but I am getting some errors on the "run" part:
declare
job_nbr binary_integer;
BEGIN
dbms_job.submit(job => job_nbr,
          what => 'RESET_ORDER_NBR_SEQ;',
          next_date => to_date('10/1/2008', 'mm/dd/yyyy'),
          interval => 'add_months(sysdate,12)');
dbms_job.run(job_nbr);
COMMIT;
END;
When I run this script, I get the following error: "ORA-32317: cannot run a job from a job". I know this is due to the dbms_job.run because I don't get the error when I comment this line out. Also, even when I moved the dbms_job.run into its own script (and even hard-coded the job_nbr, so the dbms_job.run was the only line in the script), it still gave me the same error. This is working in SQL Developer when but not in Application Express. It seems to be something specific to the "run", since "submit" and "remove" work fine. Has anyone had any problems like this?

MBETTIS,
Rather than including dbms_job.run in your PL/SQL block, why don't you just schedule the job to run via next_date?
Also, the interval will be computed after the job successfully executes. So if your job takes 5 minutes to run, the value of SYSDATE in your interval may "slide" after each execution. Consider using some form of TRUNC against the SYSDATE in your interval if you want to achieve a consistent execution time.

Am useing a PC. Have Photoshop CS5, suddenly cannot move Raw files from bridge (or anywhere else) into photoshop. Jpeg move into photoshop ok, did get error message 1 what do I do to correct this om bridge (or anywhere else for that matter)

Useing a PC
Have Photoshop CS5
Suddenly cannot move Raw Files from Bridge (or anywhere else) into photoshop.
I Can move Jpegs into ps the only issue is with Raw files
I did get error1 message but as do not know what that means its no help
any suggestions?

Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.

Discrepancy when running JS in batch mode from Bridge vs. Photoshop

I have an action that calls the following bit of javascript. When I run the action on a single file I have no problem. When I run the action using Batch from Photoshop CS3 I don't have any problems. When I run the action using Batch from Bridge CS3, I get prompted with a dialog box at line 2, I have to hit Enter to get past line 3, and have to hit Enter after the last line. Can anyone explain why the behavior would be different depending on where it's called from? How can I modify the javascript to get around this?
] var docRef = activeDocument;
var layerRef = docRef.artLayers.add();
layerRef.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
var textRef = layerRef.textItem;
textRef.position = [4, 9.546666666667];
textRef.justification = Justification.CENTER;
textRef.font = 'Verdana';
textRef.size = 10;
textRef.contents = docRef.name.split('_')[1].split('-')[0];
Thanks,
Nate

You might want to try and put a

at the top of the script. It should suppress the dialogs.
