CS4 Cache and "Open Recent"

I keep reading conflicting info on whether to let Bridge export cache files to folders or to maintain a central cache. What is preferable and why?
Second, File>Open Recent is always grayed out and no files are ever listed. Is there some way to make this work?
Thanks.

I think the Bridge cache files exported to folders are in addition to Bridge's central cache.  You would want cache exported to folders if you plan to write those folders to another system or external media and view them in Bridge on another system.
For me, Bridge's Open Recent lists files recently opened by installed Adobe CS apps such as Photoshop.  For example my Open Recent in Bridge lists files that I've recently opened in Photoshop, In Design and Dreamweaver.  There also is a Reveal Recent button in the application bar with submenus for CS apps then a list of recent folders viewed in Bridge.  Does Reveal Recent display anything for you?

  • Issue with "previous recipients" and "open recent"

    Hi,
    When I upgraded my MacBook Pro, I had to manually copy my user folder to my new Mac and I think it's causing a problem with file permissions.
    The main issues of that, is every time I quit an app, my "open recent" list is emptied (and it's not linked with the new system in 10.6 in the global preferences). And the second, is that no new "previous recipients" are added in Mail.
    Has anyone a clue on what I can do?
    Thanks.
    Laurent

    Bump!
    Still looking for a solution.

  • Web cache and open connection count?

    Hi,
    I can get a count of the number of open connections through the webcache admin screen.

    Hi,
    There is an option to send a XML message to the Statistics port & get a XML reply giving the Statistics details you had requested for.
    Refer on how to do this here :
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_02/caching.1012/b14046/invalidate.htm#i1007387
    this page is actually for Invalidation request. Similar thing must be done for statistics request, except that you need to use the statistics port instead of the invalidation port.
    They have also said how to use database triggers for the same:
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_02/caching.1012/b14046/invalidate.htm#sthref1878
    You can get the Statistics DTD from here:
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_02/caching.1012/b14046/dtd.htm#sthref2538
    Hope this helps.

  • CS4 Encore and Photoshop problem

    Hello.  I was using CS4 Encore and opening a pre-packaged menu (Lakeside) and used the right-click "edit in Photoshop" option.  I've used it before without trouble, but it's been a while.  I'm seeing several oddities now and don't know what's going on. 
    1) Right-clicking in Encore and choosing "edit in Photoshop" opens Photoshop but not the actual file.  It just goes to a blank screen in Photoshop.
    2) If I open the file manually and make changes, they don't save.  As in, literally, the file doesn't save.  I can choose save and it doesn't return an error, but every time I choose "close" or "exit" I get the prompt to save again, and after saving if I force quit or something then the file does not exist in my target drive or update in Encore.
    I tried re-associating .psd files with Photoshop but it didn't work (they also appeared to be already associated).  I haven't made any changes lately that I'm aware of. 
    Thanks.

    Well, I like "gremlins."
    Only thing that I can think of, would be if the Library Menu PSD was Read Only, but that should have yielded an error message to that effect.
    Also, the first thing that one normally sees is the warning about PAR (Pixel Aspect Ratio), as all Menus, not designed for BD (Blu-ray Disc) will have a PAR for non-square pixels. A full HD Menu will have a PAR = 1.0 (Square Pixels). That warning is just a reminder about the display, which will be Square Pixels, even though the PAR is not 1.0.
    One oddity, that I have encountered, but on a very limited and random basis, is where the Save from PS does not always update back through the link to Encore. Seems to happen about 1:10 +/- basis. Because I am often working on multiple Menus in a session, I just make sure that I do a Save at least 3x, during the editing process. Why 3x seems to be the magic number is unknown, but then, it always works for me (a few others have found similar issues with Save not updating, but not many). I just do my editing, hit Save (or Ctrl-S), then close up my Layer Sets, and hit Save, or Ctrl+S again, study my work, and do one last Save, or Ctrl+S. That has always worked perfectly, and the Menu does always update in Encore.
    Yeah, probably gremlins...
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Cs4 crashed and now wont open

    before i get my head bit off for being in wrong forum...i feel i am lucky to get this far...
    whilst running batch from within cs4, my computer hung and i was forced to hold the power button as i could not force quit nor close any open programme...after restarting, cs4 bridge wont open, just comes up with open/retry/report...i have un-installed the whole programme and reinstalled but still the same...something must be corrupt, what and where are the big questions and how to find it, delete it, or repair it...oh sure i can live without bridge, but i would rather fix the problem...help please

    OKAY...SORTED...FOLLOWING IS FROM A POST FROM THE ADOBE LINK ... I PUT THIS UP IF ANYONE ELSE NEEDS THE INFORMATION...THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP, I CAN PUT MY HAIR BACK IN NOW !!!
    Probably already the case but be sure to have quit Bridge,
    go to the user Library and in the preferences folder find both the plist files for Bridge 3 and for:
    com.adobe.bridge2.plist (Bridge CS3)
    com.adobe.bridge3.plist (Bridge CS4)
    Both these files need to be manually removed to the trash (they rebuild it self with a new fresh file after restarting Bridge again)
    Also go in the same (user) library to the caches folder and find Adobe / Bridge CS4 . In here delete both files (Adobe Bridge Plug-in Cache and Cachefolder) manual to the trash. If you have removed CS3 also do this for this version. Both deleted files will refresh itself with a new empty file after restart. (Note!: With this action you will loose all your previous cache information and have to recache your folders again, if you have not done so before it is no problem, otherwise it can take you some time...)
    Restart Bridge again holding down option key to refresh preferences (only this option should do) again. Now reset the prefs to your wishes and restart Bridge again.
    Also be sure that Bridge as well as Indesign are installed in the application folder at your root system.

  • I recently created a new iPhoto library, why does it now show 2 iPhoto libraries the same and 1 being my new one when I hold option and open iPhoto at the same time?

    I recently created a new iphoto library. It seems now that when I hold down the option key and open iphoto  I now have 2 iphoto libraries (both the same library) as well as my new library which is now my default as I intended but why would I now have 2 listed the same in this box? When I go to finder>pictures there is only the 2!! I hope I am making sense!

    Try the following to see if you can get rid of the ghost:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • When I try to open my Lightroom 5 program it comes up with this message, "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit."  How do I fix this?

    Can someone please let me know how I can fix this error and open my Lightroom?  Thanks.

    You might be quicker help posting in the LR forum rather than the ACR forum, but I believe the way to fix this is to delete the preview cache. 
    Find your catalog folder.
    Close LR.
    Within the catalog folder, delete the FOLDER called Catalog-Name Previews.lrdata
    Start LR.

  • I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?

    I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version (CC2014) and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file>open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?
    I have tried 'Open with' and the version of the program now installed on my computer isn't even suggested as an option and when I browse for it, the file wont open with it anyway

    On Windows (don't know about Mac), the latest version will always take over the file association, and become the default for indd files. It's impossible to change it.
    But there is a plugin for ID that makes this possible. Never tried it myself.

    How do I ask Textedit (if running ) for the list of "open recent" items?
    Thank you

    Thank you. This does the job for "opened documents" in TextEdit and other applications. I wish there were a similar method for "open recent" items. Each application (TextEdit, BBEdit etc) seems to handle the "open recent" items in its own way!
    Thank you again.

    My safari,4.1.3 on the bottom says cancelled opening page. have cleared the cache,and reset but it still does it on some pages,not all. Any ideas

    It's possible that the pages you are attempting to open simply won't work with that old web browser.
    If you're using Mac OS X Tiger, update to the latest version, which is 10.4.11. (You might be using that already. Your profile says you're running 10.4.1, but I bet that's just a typo.)
    Then get the latest version of Safari that will run on Tiger. (And... you have that already: 4.1.3.)
    You might try a more modern browser designed specifically for your current OS. That would be TenFourFox.
