CC bridge hangs opening folders

CC bridge hangs opening folders, I am using Win 7 64 bit.
At this point I am using Bridge CS5 to browse folders, that works flawlessly.
Is there a way to fix or reinstall program ?

Hi vega9,

Unfortunately it is difficult to say if the issue you are experiencing is due to the same root cause as some of the other individuals on this thread. I will try my best to isolate it and find out if it is.
Can you also elaborate on the issues you are experiencing with importing Edge Animate files?
Thank you for your patience,

I do not want Bridge to be the default program for opening folders.

I have recently upgraded from CS5.5 to CS6 Design and Web Premium. Since my upgrade, when I click on any “folder” IExplorer no longer is my default browser for my folders. Bridge now opens all my folders. This is very annoying. I DO NOT want Bridge to be default. I tried uninstalling Bridge and it did not work, Bridge must have corrupted my registry.
When I tried to open a folder it warns me there is no program associated with this file. This is unbelievable that Adobe would do this. Why would you not give the user a chance to choose if they wanted Bridge to be the default folder browser. Or at least have an easy way to revert it back to IE.

I HATE that every time I try to open a “FOLDER” Bridge opens.
It seems the Adobe Forums are unreachable due to an update but using email I do respond nevertheless.
To be Honest, I don't understand how you are able at all to start Bridge when opening a folder?? Can you report back with details of System and version info of Bridge and maybe explain your workflow?
And Bridge is only slow for the first time, it needs to cache files first. Which brings me to the point that Bridge is a file browser and not so much as a folder browser. You can use the folder panel for an overview of the system content and folder structure and for fast and easy navigating.

After reinstalling Yosemite 10.10.2 Bridge opens folders very slowly.

Thanks Ian! I see the other topics now, and I did the deauthorize thing, although it said this computer was not authorized (I know it was because I just bought songs on it.) So I authorized it again and now it works fine! Except now it says there are 3 computers authorized, I only have 2. I guess it thinks this computer is authorized twice now somehow? I hope this bug gets fixed.

Bridge default opens images in After Effects.

I am working in Bridge CS 5 (4.0.5.11) on a Mac Pro OS X 10.6.8. I am trying to open files (jpg, psd, bmps) in Photoshop CS 5 and the default is set to PS but Bridge is opening the images in After Effects. Where or how do I reset the default for files to open in Photoshop and not After Effects? When I right-click on the image the default is set to PS but still opening in AE.
Thanks for the help.

I forgot to do so and had to recreate from scratch.
Downside from resetting prefs is indeed you loose some settings, I always recreate them from scratch and have done so often in the past that I almost can dream this. Plus side is in this way you will learn more about Bridge and its prefs and will become more used to it. Maybe even discovering things you never new of
I rely heavily on the folder panel and have only 4 main folders in the favorites that I also don't use very often. The folder panel gives you so much more overview and options, you should give it a try.
Anyway, glad it worked out for you :-0

Bridge hangs when pngs are in network share

Ok I have a weird issue Bridge hangs when I have a png in a folder on a network share if remove the png file from the folder the other items produce thumbnails work fine on a pc with the pngs just on macs bridge crashes and if you try to open the file it crashes photoshop.
smb share

It doesn't matter if its OS 10.4, 10.5 or 10.6
Intel or G5 Macs
Photoshop/Bridge CS3 or CS4
Adobe photoshop and Bridge crash opening/viewing and saving BMP,PNG or GIF on a large (over 1TB) windows SMB file server.
we didn't have this problem before the server was enlarged to over 1TB
also the same files work fine when 1st copied off the server onto the Mac desktop.
Also the finder and "preview" program in Mac OS 10,5 and 10,6 have no problems with the files on the server, its just photoshop and bridge :-(

Bridge CS3 opens at wrong location

My older versions of Bridge always opened wherever I last closed it. Now it picks a file and stays there for about a week until it shifts to another file for another week. It's a time waster for me to have to reopen the file every time.
Any suggestions?
thanks!
Karen

Usually Bridge opens with the folder and workflow last open when quitting the application.
If not try resetting the preferences using shift + option + command keys while starting Bridge. Choose reset preferences and normally you should be OK.

HELP. ............Hi folks hope some one can help me please.Having a problem in Bridge I open my images in ACR, as I open files in a folder and lets say they are labeled in yellow they are all going back to the camera raw default , in other words no matter what work I have done, inc cropping they all go back to ,as they came out of camera. What on earth is happening? I am on PS CS6. I might point out everything was working normally up to yesterday, when this first started.
I recently changed computer to 64bit from 32bit, not sure if this causing the problem or not. Any help would be appreciated.

Robert,
Would you be so kind to rephrase your question with concise, precise information and without any "let's say that" hypotheticals? Sorry, I can't quite follow you.
Also please give exact versions of Photoshop CS6 (13.what.what), of Bridge and of your OS.
Thanks.

Can't Open Folders

Using Leopard 10.5.2
When I try to open a folder, any folder, including the hard drive, the ipod, folders on the desktop, etc. this happens:
1st -- a window opens. In some cases I see the contents of the folder in it, but usually it looks completely empty.
2nd -- after about 1 second the window disappears and everything on the desktop including the hard drive image also disappears.
3rd -- after about 1 second everything on the desktop reappears, complete with the hard drive and other folders. They are all closed.
Spotlight can find folders within folders, and files within folders. Applications can be opened from spotlight or the dock, but not from any folder, such as the applications folder. Some folders can be opened from Recent on the apple menu, but others can't.
I spent a couple hours on the phone to Apple yesterday and they first had me create an account for a phantom user. Logged off as myself, and logged on as the phantom user, and did not have this problem with that account. New problem being: can't access any of my files, because they're all associated with the original user account.
Next we did some complicated stuff to get access to my desktop folder from a new super-administrator account and moved my desktop into the "shared" folder. Went back to my account, and now everything that was on my desktop has disappeared and I still can't open any folders, so I can't get anything that was on the desktop for that account back.
Next we reinstalled the system software using the install and archive option.
This was also a giant step backwards, because it installed 10.5.1 and reset preferences etc back to the defaults but it did not affect the folder bug. So then I ran software update and installed 10.5.2 and now I'm up to about 10 hours of trying to make things work and have only succeeded in making things worse.

Hi I exactly have the same problem . I remarked it noon on my G5, Leopard 10.5.2.
I have 2 Internal Hard Drive.
On the primary one, i have the same symptoms : i could not open folders. Everything stops and restarts. Sometimes it even happens after several clicks in teh lateral bar of the Finder
On the Second internal Hard Drive everything is OK
I thought about rights.. i launched some maintenance & cleanup scripts using ONYX, then reboot... it 's the same.
It's so strange : i reinstalled Leopard from scratch two weeks ago >
I launched backups with Time Machine + Capsule
Recently i installed iLife.
It seems, that after install of Leopard everything was ok.
Recently, one of my update (iDVD) failed. And Safari.
This problems come from my RAM i think :
When i reinstalled Leopard, i should unplug all my upgraded non-Apple RAM.

Adobe CS5 programs have trouble opening folders on external hard drives under 10.10.2

Just upgraded 2 mac's to 10.10.2. One is a late 2013 Mac Pro, the other is a lot-of-the line, BTO iMac 5K. (Processors and Ram are not an issue)
Both InDesign and Illustrator (CS5) are having difficulty opening folders on external hard drives. Mac Pro is connected to a 5GB LaCie d2 via thunderbolt cable, while the 5K is connected to a 2TB WD my book studio for Mac via FW800 with an apple branded Thunderbolt adapter. Both are formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
Using the File>open command then drilling down to the selected folder on the Hard Disk drive, the finder sits blank with the spinning beach ball going.
Other local folders open up quickly and populate file lists with no problems.
Some folders on the external drive can be accessed through the File>open finder dialogue however they are folders that contain fewer sub-folders and files.
Update while typing this...
Both Folders that were giving us problems contained a shortcut. Hiding that shortcut inside anouther local folder seems to have cleared up the trick. This is a short term work around and I am wondering if Apple is aware of this issue or if others have found the same problem as I have and if this work around fixes their issues?

How long have you been running 10.9?
In my case the external drives go to sleep and have to wake up. Not much to do with Mavericks, just hardware sleeping to save energy. Note that 10.9 is much more energy aware and may put things to sleep more often. That may be a fair trade off

My Bridge CC opens in a locked mode - I cannot make any changes (dump cache) - it says "other instances of Adobe Application Manager are running, which must be closed." I have to force quit Bridge to get out of it. I tried to uninstall Bridge and re-install it but it did the same thing. Any ideas where to go next?
The fact that I uninstalled Bridge and reloaded it has me concerned as to what to do next.?

You need to force quit all other (real or fake) instances of the Application Manager. Instructions differ between Mac or Win.
A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.

IMac Won't Allow Me To Install Applications Or Even Open Folders

I have an iMac Intel Core Duo 2.33 GHz, with 2GB of Ram running 10.5.4.
When I booted my Mac last week I noticed a brown area on my screen. After the machine booted I could only open the applications that were in my dock or do a search for them through Spotlight and start the application from there, since it took many clicks to get to my Applications directory to open after clicking GO in the menu bar.
Even after the Applications directory opened (which took forever) I was unable to click on ANY of the applications and scrolling was extremely slow or not at all. I also had to Refresh the Finder just to get it to show up at the top of my screen or close the Application window.
I took the machine in for repair and they replaced the screen and told me that not being able to open folders, go to the Application folder or ANY folder was a software issue and not a hardware issue. They recommended I remove EVERYTHING in my Startup Login Options when I got home and that would fix the problem, it did not - I removed all 4 applications in the startup and nothing changed.
I rarely install applications, but I faithfully repair permissions at least daily and I have installed all of the latest updates Apple released in the last 2 weeks.
Thing I have done so far
1. Repaired Permissions
2. Verified The Disk
3. Reinstalled Leopard And All The Updates
4. Run Most of the options built into Onyx, Maintenance and Mac Pilot, since I have them already installed.
Nothing has made a difference, I am still unable to run anything in my applications directory, open ANY folder on my desktop or any other directory, drag an icon to my applications folder or drag a folder or icon on my desktop.
The only things I can do is run what few applications I have in my Dock and search for Applications using Spotlight and run them from there. They come up quickly and run just fine once they come up.
Any help or suggestions someone could provide would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much for your time!
Randy

Repairing permission daily is a complete waste of time and will not help you. In fact, repairing the disk permissions needs to only be done about 2-3 times a year at best.
You say you verified the disk but did you repair it? Did you get a message that the "disk appears to be o.k."? What kind of install did you do? My guess is you did an archive and install.
Onyx is a troubleshooting tool and should not be used on a regular basis for anything. Caches do not need to be cleaned on a regular basis and everything else Onyx and similar utilities claim to do are handled by the system automatically. Do not use these utilities unless you are having a problem.
My guess is you have a serious problem with file corruption.
Have you tried creating a new account? Try that and see if the problem follows to the new account or not.

Windows Explorer always opens folders in a new window

Yes, yes, I've googled it already. And bing-ed it just for fun too.
This doesn't work:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/samewindow.htm
Nor does this:
http://blog.hansmelis.be/2009/05/17/windows-vista-explorer-opens-folders-in-a-new-window/
Yes, yes, I've checked the Open in same folder option in folder options.
I've used shellex to disable context menu items.
I've rebooted a hundred times.
This is rediculous. Windows should only recognize ONE setting for this and that is the one in folder options. Anything else that affects it is a BUG!
I'm on build 7100 RC.
And I'm quite frustrated with this.
Please help!

<<...tried to import the key from that known-good windows installation ...... (but
was 64bits)...>>
importing x64 keys to an x86 installation may not work. HKLM\WOW6432Node\Classes\Interface would have to be combined with (overwrite)
the standard location and then that be copied/imported to the x86 install. Even then, there might be some unanticipated problems.
It's good that you had a registry backup available in system restore. Although I like the inherent security and reliability in the Vista/Win7 system restore implementations, one thing that I miss was being able to pluck only the registry files from
a restore point; like I used to do with WinXP.
<<...Yes, my case is precisely (Windows Explorer always opens folders in a new window) on
Win7. ....>>
Also, that is too general. There is more nitty-gritty details that have to be verified, such as whether the issue is per-user,
or whether the "Explore" option is in bold and works properly when manually selected. In a lot of cases, that simply may not be in bold which means it's no longer the default action on double-click. (requires different set of steps to resolve,
focusing on another part of the registry) But from what you've stated on JAVA update 20, there well could be some changes to the HKLM portion of that Interface key... don't know. A before and after registry compare usually helps pin down the issue.
EDIT 10y04m24d_130735:
One other thing that occurs to me, is that the dreaded Yahoo toolbar often installs with Sun Microsystems's JAVA. I've removed such toolbars on many browsers because they render IE8 unstable/unreliable with occasional to routine freezes/crashes.

Bridge CC opens older version of PS instead of PS CC

Under Windows 7: Bridge CC "Open" and "Open with->Photoshop (default)" in the thumbnail context menu open PS5 which has been since uninstalled leaving PS6 and PS CC.
"Open in camera raw" opens Camera Raw 8.1 associated with CC programs.
"Place->In Photoshop" opens PS CC
Ai files open in AI CC
All CC programs show as up to date in the CC program manager
I have opened Bridge with Ctl-click, reset preferences and cleared the bridge cache. As expected this did not clear the problem.
Opening a psd file from Windows Fle Explorer opens PS6, not PS CC
I can correct the Windows File Explorer association with Control Panel-> Default Programs -> Set associations but I shouldn't have to. The CC installs should have done that.
How do I correct the file associations that are internal to Bridge? I'm reluctant to Uninstall->Download->reinstall without being relatively sure that will clear the problem.
Thanks.

Update on this issue:
Concerning Ps CS6 seizing Dominance:
I did try UNinstalling and then re-installing Ps CC 14.00 but Ps CS6 still retained "Dominance" (meaning that it was impossible to change System Permissions to recognise that all PSDs should always be opened from the Finder in Ps CC).
Finally I uninstalled Ps CS6 from this HD and now CC has established "Dominance".
Bridge CS6 was NOT removed from my HD when I uninstalled Ps CS6. (You need to keep Bridge CS6 until Adobe replaces the the AOM Panel in Bridge CC.)
Also, choosing the Default File Associations in Bridge CC, now correctly sets all Photoshop-related Associations to Ps CC instead of Ps CS6.
Duplicated from another thread beause there are multiple threads all discussing the same issue!

Want to open folders in the SAME window

I just did a clean install of Leopard, and now whenever I open a folder I get a new window! I doesn't matter what the status of the checkbox "Always open folders in a new window" is in the Finder preferences. I ALWAYS get a new window. Are there any preferences to delete, or other option to stop this?

I need help on this also. I had the problem on 10.4 and hoped that it would go away with Leopard. It has not.
I tried trashing the finder preferences in USER Library and restarting to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated.
