CS4 Bridge smart collectione by aperture value

I would like to create a collection from scanning several thousands photos - based on aperture value. However aperture is not available when setting criteria in smart collection definition. Or am I missing something?
Vlad

It is really annoying - no aperture value field is selectable in metadata. The only one aperture related option is "max aperture value" which defines in some way the lens but not actual shooting situation. Adobe listen - aperture value is one of the most rudimentary parameters for a photographer - it is nice to have it in filters - but it has to be accessible in some easy way (at least accessible if not easy) in folders and their subfolders. Or maybe I am totally dumb - now I really do not know.

Bridge CC (German) doesn't display aperture values correctly

Hi everyone,
the German edition of Bridge CC still seems to have the same bug as Bridge CS6:
Bridge displays aperture values as integer values both in the filter column and in the metadata box, e.g. f1.4 is shown as 1.0, f2.8 is shown as 2.0, f5.6 is shown as 5.0 etc.
I've reported this bug last year to Adobe and they call it a "known issue" due to the decimal sign ("," instead of "."). Unfortunately, Adobe didn't care to correct it for the CC-Upgrade.
It can be corrected manually by changing the variable "Decimal" from "," to "." in the file strings.txt which can be found in the folder "Content/Resources/de.lproj" (accessible, when right-clicking on Bridge.app, => "Show content"). You will need admin rights to do so.
So far I've had to repeat these steps after each Camera Raw Upgrade which is a little annoying.
I hope this can help other's having this issue.
Cheers, Joe

Thank you for bring that up again. I too thought after you told then exactly what to do, and they acknowledged it the changes were made.
If others having this problem (probably European languages) they have a workaround.

CS4 Bridge, icon in place of image??

Hi Guys.
I do hope someone out there can help to shed some light on the following problem I am experiencing in CS4 Bridge on my new Mac. The O/S on my Mac is Snow Leopard 10.6.6
My original mac continued to crash and therefore Apple swapped it for a new and up to date model, all the software has been loaded and appears to work ok except that in Bridge when I should see a preview of a Raw image, all I see is the "icon" symbol, a plain piece of paper with a lens aperture in the middle. I have checked all the preference settings with my old Mac and all appears to be ok.
I am currently using Canon 1Ds MK III and 1D MKIV cameras.
Can anyone please tell me how to rectify this matter?
I have been on to the Adobe Tech Support and all they continue to do is pass me from pillar to post. In fact the phone is currently on hold and has been now for in excess of 40mins??? At their cost, it's a ring back!!
Many thanks in anticipation.

Hi.
Thanks for your reply. In answer to your suggestions/questions, yes if I double click on the icon in bridge (where the image should be) the icon/image opens up correctly in the Raw convertor ready for processing. Your second question, have I downloaded plug-in V5.7 - Yes.
Today I have had three technicians on attempting to help me for approximately one hour each and then a techi teamleader for a further 1.5 hours, still no joy.
Adobe have promised to ring me back tomorrow which some new ideas and hopefully a solution!!!
One step we will be taking is to uninstall and reinstall the software completely.
Any ideas/suggestions welcome.
Cheers

How can you save a customized Web Gallery in CS4 Bridge?

While trying out some the Web Galleries in CS4 Bridge, I have customized several using the customizing options. The info I type in is saved automatically but if I change from one gallery to another, all the customized choices for colors, etc., returns to the default version. Surely there is a way to save what I have input? Kind of ridiculous if you have to do this every time you want to make a gallery. Also, seems that some galleries have more customizing options while others leave those options off. Is this just a bad oversight by Adobe? In the HTML web option, anyway to have it list the file number/name below the image?

I was surprised that no one wanted to answer this question.
I waited long enough.
I still don't have this working properly

How do I find images in LR 2.4 (imported from CS4 Bridge) that have color labels already assigned In CS4 Bridge? I have set both Bridge and LR color labels text to match (eg Green for green, etc).

How do you find images in LR 2.4 that have been imported from CS4 Bridge and have been assigned a color label in Bridge? I have set both LR 2.4 and my CS4 Bridge to match the text for each color to be the same (eg. Green for green, etc), and the filter search in LR 2.4 shows that a label has been assigned, but I am unable to identify and locate the specific images in LR 2.4 that have had a color label assigned from CS4 Bridge. I have tried to search via attribute, metadata, text, etc...Is it necessary to re-assign color labels all over again, image by image, in LR 2.4, or is there a way to automatically have the color labels assigned in CS4 Bridge be assigned and searchable to the images after they have been imported into the LR 2.4 catalogue from the Bridge program?

JohnM.
I closed both programs and re-imported photos and re-tried the action of having LR read the XMP metadata from the CS4 files, and it seems to work now just fine...don't know why now and not before, but thanks much. Is there a way to have LR do this automatically upon import of images from CS4? I tried to do this with an import metadata preset, but no luck. It seems as if I can only do this once the images have already been imported into LR, and then to have to have LR read the metadata from the CS4 Bridge files. thanks gain.

How to get CS4 Bridge Photo Gallery into Dreamweaver?

I am a photographer who is new to Dreamweaver. I followed instructions and created a web gallery in Photoshop CS4 bridge. How do I get that into Dreamweaver???????????

Open DW.
Define your site.
Close DW
Put all the stuff that Bridge spews out into site folder - without changing the file structure.
Open DW
The tickiest part to this if you're new to it all, is defining your site. After that, if you don't have a basice grasp of HTML and CSS Dreamweaver might just turn out to be a bit trickier yet.
If you are not so sure about defining your site, Google it. There are tutorials for it everywhere!

Problem with CS4 Bridge and Camera Raw

I just bought a Canon 5D Mark III and can not open the images in Camera Raw through Bridge. I was told to upgrade the Camera Raw plug in. I have 5.7.0.213 already and that is what I could find to download. Can I upgrade the plug in into CS4 Bridge or how do I make this work.
Please, I need help with this soon.
Thanks, Tom

Isn't there any other option? I don't have a compter that can run CS6 and at the moment, upgrading compters and Photoshop isn't going to happen. All I need is to upgrade the Camera Raw Plug-in. There has to be some sort of work around for this.
Anyone have any ideas?

I shoot with a Canon 7D, have Windows 7 installed on my computer, Adobe CS4 (Bridge & Photoshop). I'm trying to open the CR2 files in Bridge to adjust them before I open them up in Photoshop, but it's giving me an error code saying it's the wrong file type. I downloaded the latest updates for Adobe Raw as well as the DNG converter, however I don't want to have to convert to DNG before opening in Bridge. Please let me know what I can do to open the CR2 files directly in Bridge CS4, thank you!

Make sure you have the right version...

Re-named NEF & jpg files in CS4 Bridge & they turned into "exec" files!?!? SOS

Auto fill subject with an Email link in CS4 Bridge flash web gallery

Is there a way to autofill the subject line of the email link in the CS4 Bridge flab web galleries? I can do it if I use the html gallery, but I prefer the look of the flash galleries.
If I open the "group.xml" file I see code for me email link, exp.: <contactEmail>maillto:[email protected]</contactEmail>
I tried adding the "?subject=My Subject" like I would on an html file but that didn't work. I was hoping for some suggestions.
Thanks!

I want it to work on the click of a mouse: when I run or test the page the email comes up immediately. Here is what I have so far:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:mailto:[email protected]?subject=yoursubject&body=your message"));
/* Mouse Click Event
Clicking on the specified symbol instance executes a function in which you can add your own custom code.
Instructions:
1. Add your custom code on a new line after the line that says "// Start your custom code" below.
The code will execute when the symbol instance is clicked.
button_3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler_6);
function fl_MouseClickHandler_6(event:MouseEvent):void
     // Start your custom code
     // This example code displays the words "Mouse clicked" in the Output panel.
     trace("Mouse clicked");
     // End your custom code
So how do I get the email to open ONLY when the mouse clicks on the link??

Putting a CS4 Bridge gallery INTO an exsisting web page

Is it possible to put a web gallery created in CS4 Bridge into an exsisting web page created in Dreamweaver? I have a site with several pages and would like to have one of my pages display the gallery so that it all looks the same. I am sure it would entail editing the html and scripts which I am somewhat familure with. Just wondering if this is possible.

As you say it's probably a matter of getting the html generated by the gallery and insert it into your own pages. I'm not familiar with creating such a gallery, but the technotes do bring up some links that may be helpful (hopefully :-)

Complex smart albums in Aperture

Hello,
I thought I saw a complex smart album in either Aperture or iPhoto which combined two sets of "opposing" criteria.
Example:
Any
Album name is "album1"
Album name is "album 2"
All
Names do not contain "word"
If I remeber correctly there was a clearly defined line in the Smart Album creation window.
Has anyone seen this as well

Hi Frank,
yes, you can combine several rules in a smart Filter or a Smart Album in Aperture, even with opposing criteria.
But this only works for rules using regular albums - I never succeeded, when I tried to reference a "Smart Album" in these rules.
Regards
Léonie
For example, this Smart album computes the difference album between two Aperture albums: All images in the Screensaver that are not in the gallery and are not rejected.
Added: But complex rules combining "Any" and "All" I have only seen in iTunes, not in Aperture; the only exeption I know of are keywords. You can have a toplevel combination of "any" or "all", and at the keywords level again a new combination.

CS4 Bridge Colour Issue.

Using my Canon 5D MKII, I shoot everything in RAW with the colour space set in the camera to Adobe RGB. Looking at the RAW files in Adobe CS4 Bridge, the Metadata file properties states that the Colour profile is 'Untagged'. Is that correct - or should it say Adobe RGB?
When you open up the RAW file in ACR, it states that the image has the Adobe RGB profile at the bottom of the screen and when it comes into PS, no profile mismatch warning comes up. Its only when you save the image as a PSD file when the metadata Colour Profile states Adobe RGB.
Also...
Since moving onto Windows Vista, if I am displaying images in Bridge through a video projector, the colours look over-saturated, whilst images displayed in other applications look fine. This does not happen on my standard monitor.
Any ideas what might be causing this?

Ray, it will do a lot more good if you file an official bug report at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
Be sure to describe the configuration in extreme detail.

CS4 Bridge crashes system

I am suddenly having a problem with CS4 Bridge causing my computer to crash (blue screen of death) whenever I attempt to use Bridge. I have contacted Adobe through their "support portal" several times over the past week and have receive no assistance whatsoever. I have also called their telephone support three times and was assured that someone would be in touch but have heard nothing. I am one week into this problem and am unable to use CS4 and bridge. I have uninstalled (complete cleansing) and reinstalled CS4 four times and the problem persists.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Wil Tifft

I've posted the following in other Post for the same problem... hope it helps (no one seem to even mention what i've done so, maybe i'm genius or plain stupid)
Hi!
I hope you've managed to solve the problem. But just in case i'll tell you that i had the same headache and i've solved (or worked around it) by enabling the Software rendering under the Bridge Advanced Preferences Tab.
The thing is that Bridge will work fine until you want to use the magnifying glass on the preview tab (it will ralentize a bit)... But, you can still make your thumbnails on the content tab bigger so you don't have to zoom in all the time except you need to view some tiny details on the file you are looking for.
That worked for me... and i didn't even tried any of the other solutions shown here... i'll hope that in time the nVidia drivers get updated soon and this problem will disappear. Unfortunately, to try and see if it is fixed you'll have to turn off Bridge's software rendering after updating the driver and then take the risk of another sudden reboot.
Cheers!

Help: Controlling transitions in flash web galleries from CS4/Bridge

Hi all,
Is there a way to control the transitions from one image to the next when generating a flash web gallery? I'm using CS4/Bridge on WinXP.
The fade out/in from one image to the next is very chunky, no matter what the file size. And that's on my local copy before I've uploaded it to the web.
I also haven't found a way to generate web galleries from within CS4 itself (looked at file/automate, as well as window/output, but nothing obvious in either location).
Many thanks for your help!
j

Your procedures are correct. The pertinent features have been moved from PS to Bridge. You can use the old method by finding the respective scripts on your install DVD's Extras section (or downloading them). Regarding transition performance and speed I don't think you can do anything. that is solely determined by the Flash template used for that and if you have no way of creating your own ones, there doesn't seem much point in even worrying about things you may not be able to change. Use it or loose it, if you allow me to put it that way. You can however certainly find enough other gallery tools on the web, they may just require you to change your approach and learn some basic web design stuff...
