CS4 Bridge not interfacing with Photoshop.

I am evaluating the new Photoshop CS4 (it is purchased copy and not running on the 30 day trial) and have run into a problem in using Bridge CS4.
I am able to open an image using Photoshop's File Open command
BUT when I attempt to do so in Bridge
I get this error
the top line in the error box is:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop.exe
The below that line is this error:
Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate premissions to access the item.
I have full administrator access to the computer in question.

If CS4 is like CS3 and you are using Vista and and external drive you may have to start Bridge in Adminsitartive mode. Right click on Bridge Icon and choose "Run as Administrator". I know sounds silly as you may be only user, but it can work this way.

Bridge not functioning in PhotoShop CS3 Extended

I deactivated Photoshop CS3 on a computer I was no longer using and installed it (CS3) another computer. I activiated CS3 on the new computer. However, when trying to use Bridge, I get a message that says that Adobe no longer supports Bridge Home and Bridge does not function on the new computer. Is there anything I can do to get Bridge to function as part of CS3 Extended?

Thanks, that worked.

hi, sometimes big images could not open with photoshop.ı can open with windows but cant open photoshop.if ı try to open i am seeing a white image.is there any answer for this problem please.

Just to assist those who might help you with this, please give the exact version of Photoshop CS6 you are running, for instance CS6 13.0.1.3.
I had already asked for that in my previous post, but I guess you didn't quite know what I was referencing when I typed "exact version".
Sorry, I cannot help you myself because I don't deal with that kind of 3D images, don't use Windows, and in all frankness I'm not quite following your last post.
Also please give the exact model of your graphics card, so they can check whether it is on the list of cards tested by Adobe.
Thank you.

Can I develop an iOS app that can interface with Photoshop?

I want to create an iOS application for interfacing with Photoshop (and other Adobe apps) and I was just wondering if this was possible.
I know there are official Adobe apps that can do this, but I can't seem to find anything on creating one. It will basically be my own version of "Adobe Nav". I find the official app lacking and have an idea of exactly what I want. I don't think I will release the app in the app store unless there are enough people who want it when I post the finished app. I plan to just run it on my own iPad.

Yes, you'll find the companion app SDK in the normal Photoshop SDK.

CS3 file not compatible with Photoshop CS4?

My son uses Photoshop CS3 at college. He worked all day on an image (120MB), and saved it on a USB stick. When opening at home with Photoshop CS4, the "Reading Photoshop format" appears, then an error message "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
He has been burned before by a USB stick, but all the other files seem OK.
Is there a solution to this?

^First thing I did was make a copy.
QuickTime Picture Viewer (which seems to open other PSD files) says it is corrupted.
Adobe Bridge can read the metadata, gives no preview, and won't open the file.
Any other thoughts?

Bridge is not connunicating with Photoshop CS6

I own Photoshops v CS3, CS5.1 and CS6 which I bought as an update.
All versions were installed on my PC and to make moore room on my hard drive I uninstalled CS3 and CS5.
I now find my Bridge CS6 cannot open images. I get the error message 'Windows cannot find C:/Programme Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Photoshop.exe The Updater in CS6 has never worked for me - I always get an error message (I did uninstall and re-install CS6 about 3 times when I purchased it but this didn't make any difference to the error messages)

Many thanks for your good advice. Bridge is now communicating with Photoshop - Phew!!! Thanks
I have done as you suggested. I already had a backup copy from when I downloaded CS6 earlier in the year and I have re-installed it. Strangely enough I wasn't prompted for my previous version licence no.
However I am still getting error messages which I thought might have been erradicated with these actions (Extension Manager 6.0.8 Update
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7) and I now find the Text Tool doesn't work!
After re-starting my PC the TEXT Tool is now working! There seems to be a bug in my PC!
I have discovered that the Error Code U44M1P7 relates to Extension Manager - I have no idea what this software is - so maybe I don't need it

CS4 Bridge not responding

I'm having issues when trying to open a photo in CS4 64-bit via Bridge. I'm running the latest version (11.0.2) on win 7 64-bit. My system has been running just fine for about 6 months up until about 3 weeks ago. Using Bridge I try open a pic to do some editing and Bridge just stops responding. If I use windows explorer to open a photo then I also have noticed that whenever I close PS that the photoshop.exe service is still running in task manager and another PS session won't open until I click end process on the existing instance. I don't know if the two isues are related but I thought I'd mention it just in case

Well if overheating is an issue it is certainly not caused by dust inside my pc. I have an Antec 300 case with an intake filter that I clean about every 2-3 weeks. Plus when I installed the TV tuner card about 3 weeks ago I blew out what little dust was inside the case. But I'll check it again just to be sure. I'll try reloading the GPU drivers again but I doubt it'll help since I've essentially already done that. I am a little concerned that MB is crapping out but more concerned that the onboard GPU is going bad. Other than a little flickering my only problems are with photoshop so far. I know that the flickering is not my monitor because I hooked it up to my lapton and I saw no flickering. I also tried switching from DVI to VGA to see if the connector made a difference and it did not. I haven't tried the HDMI yet. I've been trying to figure this out for the past few weeks with no success yet.
I'm thinking that I've got a bad GPU or driver and/or a software problem. Considering getting a PCI-X video card to see if that makes any difference.

CS4 Bridge not showing all files

I'm working on a 1TB drive in a directory with about 1000 dng files. When use Bridge not all files are shown and there are no filters selected. I go into the directory using Windows Explorer and they are indeed there. I can select the file in Windows Explorer and open it in Photoshop without any problems. Any help would be appreciated.

Strange, when I set the option to show reject and hidden files nothing changed. When I set the show items from subfolders all the images appeared. The strange part is that they are all in the same directory. At least it works now. Thank you for your help, I appreciate it.

My epson stylist 3880 will not print with Photoshop CC on Mac OS 10.9.3. I've already talked to epson, the printer works with Preview.

There is nothing wrong with the printer or drivers. Something is wrong with Photoshop CC. The error box says:
"There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."
Any suggestions?

Hello charlottedk, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are having cartridge and printhead problems. I would like to try and assist.
I would suggest performing a power reset. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would also recommend following the steps in this document on an 'Incompatible Print Cartridge' or 'Print Cartridge Problem' Message Displays on the Computer or P...
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

RAW (NEF) photos from my new Nikon D750 will not open with Photoshop Elements11 Camera RAW.

RAW (NEF) photos from my new Nikon D750 will not open in Camera RAS with Photoshop Elements 11. This has not been a problem with previous Nikon cameras. I'm using a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9.5. How can I solve this problem? Thanks.

Aside from upgrading to pse 13, you can use the 8.7.1 adobe dng converter to convert the files to dng copies, which pse 11 should then open.

Print Studio Pro plugin is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 Editor for Mac

It appears that the latest version of Print Studio Pro PlugIn is not compatible with the Editor version of Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac as available on the App store. The install gives an error saying that it did not find a supported version of Photoshop Elements. This error has been reported before for Elements version 12 but was reportedly fixed in the latest version of Print Studio Pro. Now it appears that this version may support Elements 12 for Mac but not the Editor only version from the app store. Any suggestions for work-around on this?

"Any suggestions for work-around on this?"
No!
Not untill Mac and Adobe and Canon get their collective acts together. Mac (Apple) has the bad habit of upgrading their stuff and not being forthcoming with the particulars given to 3rd party companies like Canon and Adobe.
Besides the cost difference of Mac's the compatibility issues are it's worst features.

ATI Catalyst 13.1 - Not Good with Photoshop CS6 13.0.1

I installed Catalyst 13.1 last night.
On Windows 7 x64 and Photoshop CS6 13.0.1 I still see the GPU-based color-management issue noted in this thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1093163?tstart=0
Some workarounds:
Configure Photoshop to Basic GPU mode and wait for a Photoshop update to potentially fix it so Normal or Advanced mode can be used again.
Uninstall Catalyst 13.1 and install 12.8 specifically (which works okay with Photoshop CS6). After testing a bit further this is probably what I'm going to do.
There may be a problem with the reporting of the VRAM size to Photoshop. I'm not sure what's up, but I have 2GB of VRAM on my ATI 7850, and 2GB was the full amount reported to Photoshop by Catalyst 12.8. With Catalyst 13.1 in place, however, I see the following. Worse yet, the number seems to vary.
Also, there seems to be a problem now with the implementation of the Windows power policy - specifically the power-down of the monitors on inactivity. They do power-down when left idle, but then they power back up again in a few moments.
I have not found a workaround for this issue yet, save for punching the actual power buttons on the monitors.
I found no speed increase or other compelling reason to upgrade to 13.1 in any case. I think that release must be all about gaming and nothing more.
My recommendation, at least until Adobe releases an update that works around the color black-out problem, is to avoid updating to Catalyst 13.1.
-Noel

In all seriousness, I do prefer things that work.
For 5 years or so ATI was on top of the quality heap - long enough that I bought a 4670, 5670, and just recently a 7850 card. However, the last 6 to 8 months have been markedly worse, and unless some kind of major turnaround happens, I am starting to think that ATI is moving down the list, making way for nVidia to dominate. I have heard that AMD in general is having financial troubles.
In my long career in software engineering, having many PCs (and having run departments full of engineers with PCs), I have seen a number of different graphics manufacturers dominate the industry at various times... Matrox, nVidia, ATI... Maybe it's just nVidia's time to shine again.
Assuming you are speaking of "jumping ship" at a higher level to Apple, that thought has crossed my mind, but in all seriousness I don't think you lot have much better a time of it overall. Reference recent Mac-only problems with Photoshop licensing/activation for example. At the moment I enjoy the greater control the PC environment gives me over what I choose to integrate together.
Perhaps it sounds as if "things are bad" for me, but they're not really. For one thing, Catalyst 12.8 really does work pretty well. My system goes for weeks between reboots and I rarely get application crashes. Testing these drivers is something I need to do to keep abreast of problems my own software customers, who use my GPU-accelerated plug-ins, may encounter. Fortunately with the newest Catalyst drivers I've found no problems with my own software, which uses the GPU differently than Photoshop (in these modern times, it's a certainty that no two applications use the GPU in quite the same way).
By the way, I am no fanatic - In addition to two desktop Dell workstations and one laptop Dell PC, I have in the family a Macbook, three iPads, and an AppleTV. Like I said, I like things that work.

Saved printer information is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 11

Hello - After successfully using PSE11 to print photos on my Epson Artisan 810 printer, the printer died and was replaced with an Epson Artisan 837 printer. The new printer works on ALL of my other applications EXCEPT I receive the following error message after hitting 'print' on Photoshop Elements 11.
MESSAGE:
The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements, or the saved printer is no longer available. You will need to check your printer settings before printing.
You can see from the screen print attached that the Epson Artisan 837 is a validly installed printer. All advanced settings were available for selection/modification, and all printer drivers are up to date. Also, uninstalled and reinstalled the printer without resolution of the problem.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction to resolve this issue?
Thanks so much, Debbie
Running:
Windows XP sp3 (up to date)

You did indeed lead down the correct path with only a little modification required in the naming (see below). Thank you so very much!!
Here's what I had to do to get this to work:
1 - I first tried to rename this printer to a generic 'DSLW Printer'. This renaming worked for ALL OTHER applications except Photoshop Elements 11 even after rebooting my PC. Received the identical error message listed in the original message.
2 - I then renamed the printer as 'EPSON Artisan 810 Series'. This was of course a lie but matched the printer as named by the 2010 original Artisan 810 installation. VOILA! This does work for Photoshop Elements 11 (jpg and psd files tested) and the other applications that I've tested. Hopefully all other testing will provide equally successful results.
So problem seems to be resolved BUT is this a question/problem that I should pursue with either Adobe or Epson? I do know that the 810 and 837 only differ in the ability to print from a wider variety of wireless devices (e.g. cell phones & tablets), otherwise the functionality is virtually identical. Did Epson drop the ball or did Adobe? Or maybe it's simply that I'm a die hard XP sp3 (32 bit) user until forced out by Microsoft.
Thanks again!!
Debbie
