CR 5.5 won't open in Bridge

Just bought Nikon D300S and had to upgrade CR to 5.5 to read the files. Now, images open in CR through PS, as opposed to through Bridge, as I had it set before. Also, am unable to set CS Color settings or append metadata. Is there a go-around for this and/or how long till 5.5 is fully active?

I ran the setup.app in the 5.5 download. I appears to have put the plug-in in the correct spot of CS4.
I've noticed that the metadata append choices are grayed out only for the D300S files, not for D3 files.
Should I assume that the quirks are from being beta?

Old folder of images won't open in Bridge

I've been finding today that all of a sudden images won't open and yet I can preview the images in my Mac finder window. It started when I tried to open an old folder of images and now I can't open any images anywhere, it's like it has got stuck on the old folder and won't budge.
I'm really desperate as now I can't do anything.
I'd really appreciate any advice people may have. I just tried purging the cache but that didn't appear to work and I think Bridge just hung so I just force quit. I have also tried restarting my Mac, but to no avail.
Thanks in advance.
Ross

Fixed it now. I held down shift, option and alt whilst clicking on the Bridge application icon in my dock. I was then able to reset everthing there. It took about 5 minutes for it to delete all the cached thumbnails and goodness knows what else, but at least now it works. technology, don't you just love it when it screws you over!

Canon 7D Mark II files won't open in bridge or photoshop

I am using photoshop CS5 and purchased a canon 7D Mark II and my files won't open. I updated to the photoshop 8.7.1 and my files still won't open. How do I fix this?

Assuming you mean ACR (Adobe Camera Raw plug-in) 8.7.1, not "Photoshop" what you write makes no sense.
ACR 8.7.1 needs at least CS6 to run. You will never be able to open your raw files from that camera directly in CS5. There will be no further updates for the obsolete, unsupported CS5 applications.
You have to go the free, stand alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1. Locate it, download it, install it and then launch and run it on ever folder of raw files to convert them to raw DNGs you can then open in your CS5 setup.

JPEGS won't open in Bridge-even after setting JPEG files to "Open With" Bridge

I have two different computers both with PSCS3. On one I have a number of JPEGs on desktop which I can double left click and Bridge opens and shows the file . On the other PC I am not able to open the JPEGS as above...I double left click...andnothing happens?? I have the JPEG files on both computers set to "open with" Bridge. I was on phone for half an hour today with Adobe...with no solution other than to reinstall. I reinstalled and no change. Any thoughts/solutions would be appreciated.

Yes I did try that. An interesting note is that I had the previous version of Bridge (1.O?) on the machine...and I could set the JPEG "open with" to that version and it would open up the earlier version of Bridge and the file. I uninstalled the earlier version of Bridge since I no longer used it.

Files won't open from Bridge to PS

I have been using CS5 since last year with no bother but suddenly I can't open a file from Bridge into PS, they keep opening in Quick Time.
I have looked in preferences/file association, but all the extensions have "none" beside them and when I try to enable them I keep getting a browse button but I don't know if this is correct and if so what am I browsing for? Can anyone please help. RAW files open in Camera Raw OK.

Have never used Lightroom so hard to say.
Since something happened to Bridge the same event could have affected Lightroom.
Since you tried holding Ctrl and opening Bridge but did not get a reset window if this happens again work with this until it works.
May have to reset preferences in Lightroom but do not know what the keystroke it for that. Might have to go the the Lightroom forum.

Photoshop (CS4) crashed and now won't open

Hi,
I'm been spending most of the day searching for similar threads here, but haven't found a solution...
A couple days ago photoshop hung, I tried to forcequit without luck so I shut the computer off and back on, and since then it won't load. when I click the icon it just bounces in the dock and then disappears. I don't even get to the splash screen.
I had a similar problem with InDesign... and now I noticed Illustrator too won't open.
Bridge works fine though.
Is there any preference files or anything else I can delete?
I tried fixing permissions, that didn't do anything. I am fairly new to the mac so not too sure what else I can do.
Again, sorry if this has been posted before, I haven't found a solution from the threads I found. Thanks
P.S. I tried creating a new user in is osx 10.5.7 and that too wouldn't solve the problem. I'm on a Macbook pro 4gb ram pleanty hd.... etc..

I don't know what is causing it but I would say a corrupt font us font explorer to find corrupt fonts then do a search for AdobeFnt and trash these files
except for any ending .db. Then trash the settings folder again, apologize for the ai error of course I mean the PS then see if that works.
You can also disable all fonts except the system fonts and see if that clears things then it is a font.
If this fails then you have to do an archival reinstall of your system and that should clear things..

Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac) won't open .arw files from my Sony RX100. How do I get and install the right version of Camera Raw?

Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac) won't open .arw files from my Sony RX100. I was told to update Camera Raw to at least 7.2. I tried to download this but got a DNG Converter instead. Where is Camera Raw? (it does not show up in a search of my hard drive. There is a folder of camera profiles but no extension or plug-in with this name). How do I find out what version I have already? How do I get the correct version? . . . OR . . . is it the case that Bridge will never open Sony raw files directly and I will have to do a separate conversion process every time I want to use a raw file??. Can someone explain this?
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.

Why won't my Adobe Bridge open?

Why won't my Adobe Bridge Open? I keep getting an error message. I first installed the free trial of Illustrator CS 6, but a few days ago joined the creative cloud. I would just uninstall & reinstall Bridge, but its not in the list of apps to install. Since joining the cloud I have also installed photoshop & indesign. Doesn't Adobe have chat support? I used in when first signing up for Cloud. Now I can't find it.
Thanks!

Hi Trisher83,
Bridge gets installed along with other programs (like Illustrator or Photohop) so it might require uninstalling all CS6 products to be able to reinstall it.
I would uninstall all CS6 products and then reinstall one which includes Bridge from a new user account and test to see if you still get the error.

Why JPEG - TIFF files in Bridge won´t open directly in Photoshop CC 2014?

Since a couple of weeks ago, whenever I click a jpeg or tiff file in Bridge (last reinstalled in 17/08/14) it won’t open directly in Photoshop CC 2014, but in Windows photo viewer. Am I doing something wrong or is it Bridge’s fault?

Thank you for your help. I tried this, but, at least in Windows OS if I do it, every time I'm within any window, a JPEG or TIFF file will open directly in Photoshop, not Windows Viewer. I contacted Adobe support and they sugested me to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop and Bridge. It took me some time, but the problem was solved. I suspect that my issue began the moment I uninstalled Photoshop CC, which was active at the same time with Photoshop CC 2014. So, if you have both, try to live with them or uninstall both apps and reinstall only CC 2014.

Photoshop won't open my raw files and Bridge won't show thumbnails

Hi,
I'm having trouble with my Photoshop CS6 and Bridge CS6 on my Mac. It's been working fine until a few days ago, but now the image thumbnails won't load in Bridge, and I'm not able to open RAW-files in Photoshop (same thing happens when opening both from Bridge or in Finder).
When trying to open the files in Photoshop a pop up message shows up saying this:
"Photoshop cannot open this file.
If you are attempting to open a raw file from a digital camera, make sure you have the latest Camera Raw update installed via Help > Updates.
If the problem persists, visit the following link for more information:
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb407111"
I'm not able to click on updates, so that won't help me much. What can I do to get it back to normal again?

I do not use a Mac but Windows as delivered from Microsoft does not generate Thumbnails for RAW files or even Photoshop Files like PSD in order to seen the in Windows UI like Windows File Explore (Mac Finder) or in File Open and selection Dialog one needs to install some windows add on. I use FastPictureViered Codec Package, When installed on Windows I can have the thumbnails your looking for. Perhaps You need some Mac add on or Apple Update the see thumbnails for RAW files. I see things like this on the web Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 4.06

Bridge won't open images

When I double click an image in Bridge, the image won't open in Photoshop. That's only one of numerous problems I am having with the Bridge that came out with PS CS3, but this has just occurred in the last day. I restarted the computer, but that doesn't work. Any suggestions?

AFAIK, you need to open Bridge, use cmd K to access Prefs, and make sure the box that enables that double click action is checked. hth, kl

Bridge won't open files

I work on a Mac and recently upgraded to Yosemite. I hate it. It is way too slow. Now Bridge won't open my files. I have purged the cache several times and it just gets worse and worse. Any suggestions?

Problem solved. I reset the preferences and it is working better than ever. Must not have Yosemite's fault.

Bridge won´t open multiple jpegs, claim one or more qualifying products need to be opened first.

I´m using photoshop cs 6, and now bridge won´t open multiple jpeg´s, but claims that one or more qualifying products need to be opened first. What is this?

You can use the -no-remote command line switch to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and run multiple Firefox instances simultaneously.
