CS6 Bridge & .DNG questions

Trying out CS6, Bridge doesn't open:
File > Browse Bridge = cursor changes to hourglass but Bridge never opens;
File > Browse in Mini Bridge = " waiting for CS6 Bridge..." message indefinitely;
am I missing step? ACR8.3 & TIF process all work AFAICT...
I've read about CS2-CS6 conflict, what is latest on how to overcome?
I shoot RX10 RAWs, Sony .ARW doesn't offer text fields.
.DNG offers several, including Description field -- I want my RAWs captioned.
(& am assuming .DNG field will transfer to TIF Description field upon conversion)
But what, if anything, do I lose by converting .ARW to .DNG & keeping only .DNG...?
(use of rather lousy Sony converter, I assume; what else?)

> In Bridge, hover your mouse on the right of those truncated texts, the cursor will change to a double arrow that will let you expand the descriptions.
Thanks! Yes, I soon discovered that I needed to expand column rather than just window...

CS6 Bridge "Lens Specification Data" appears incorrect (W7 Pro 64Bit SP1)

Viewing Camera Data (Exif) in CS6 Bridge
Noc ahgnges to default settings applied in CS6 Bridge
Observed Results:
The new "Lens Specification Data" under the Camera Data (Exif) appears to be be correctly reporting the lens type but shows the lens as "f/0" which is incorrect
This appears to be the case with pictures taken with two different lenes both of which are reported as f/0
Further up in the same tab the "Lens" data is correctly reported for the lens type and maximum aperture.
Expected Result:
Wasd to see the maximum aperture of the lens reproted in addition to the lens type, which I would ahve expected to be the same data as reproted under the "Lens" information higher up in the same panel.
Which begs the question what is the difference between the "Lens" information and the "Lens Specification Data" meant to be ?
Observed these results with the following two lenses:
EF-S17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM
System Info:
Won't let me paste in :(

Hi Baichao,
Thank you for your response.
The camera in questions is a Canon 7D (actullay I shoot with a pair of 7D's and the results are the same for both cameras), the files are both .CR2 and .JPG, with the same results being seen for both file formats. the images have not been edited in any other applications but viewed immediately after donwload to the PC from the memory card.
I have also viewed these and other older images in both the CS6 and CS5 versions of bridge for comparision purposes and see the same differences irrespective of how old the image is or if its been previously edited in CS5 for both .CR2 and .JPG files.
In addition I also don't see an indication of the subject distance displayed in CS6 bridge, although the option is selected and works as expected in CS5 bridge.
I will send you a seperate email with screen shots showing an example in both CS5 and CS6.
Regards Mark

Nope, you can install it on your new computer with no issues. The disc contains both the 32 and 64 bit versions.

Mac CS6 Bridge will not open

I know this has been discussed a lot on the forums and I have read all of those, but I am frustrated after 3 weeks of working on this. I bouht my wife Photoshop CS6 for xmas and loaded on our iMac running 10.8.2. She was running Elements 8. CS6 Bridge will not open. Get a message "operation can not be completed". It will also not open from inside Photoshop either. Following other posts, went into Library and deleted switchboard folder, plist files, and other listed files. Did an option start on CS6 and reset to factory, delete thunbnails. Performed PRAM and disk permissions repair. None of this has fixed the problem. The only thing that works is creating a new user account. Bridge opens fine in my test account. Next step is to make test account the main account; however, this is going to be a pain. Any other ideas before I undertake this?

Looks like you have tried all the suggested methods, so good job on that. Your solution to create a new account is one that has worked for many where nothing else has worked. This usually means some permission or default setting has not been affected by your actions.
The only suggestion I can offer is to uninstall CS6, run Adobe Script Cleaner, then reinstall. Hope this works.

Opening files in CS6 Bridge

When I try to open a file in photoshop from CS6 Bridge I get an error message: "Windows cannot find 'C:\Windows\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe' Make sure you have typed the name correctly and then try again."
I just moved from CS5 to CS6 and do not have CS4 on my machine.

Did you uninstall CS6 beta before you installed CS6 final? If not uninstall now. You machine may be fairly well messed up by now.
If your only Adobe product is CS6 here is what I would do.
Save any files you might want from PS and Bridge then deactivate and uninstall PS.
Download and run the Adobe Script Cleaner, follow instructions.
Install CS6 and reactivate. If it asks for qualifiying s/n, use the CS5 #, no need to have it installed.

I am trying to output a PDF gallery from CS6 bridge in 10.8.5 on a Mac. No options are available from the pull-down Output arrow.

Hello,
Although not as simple as it should be you can use a program like "Grab" to take a screenshot of the frame in the preview window in iMovie.

CS6 Bridge web gallery - HTML Gallery template problem

In CS6 Bridge, a web gallery created with the HTML Gallery template puts the images in a directory with a path of content\bin\images. This prevents the images from being served from IIS - the bin directory is by default a "Hidden segment". There is no need for the directory hierarchy generated to use the name "bin".
I know how to work around the issue, but it would be better if the issue was not present in the first place. I tried to report it as a problem on photoshop.com, but was unable to login.
How do I report this problem to Adobe?

(Me again, my previous Adobe ID broke). We don't have Dreamweaver, and the users who create and upload web galleries would not be able to use such tools (or a text editor which works on several files at the same time). My workaround is to have a directory dedicated to their web galleries using a web.config file of
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <security>
            <requestFiltering>
                <hiddenSegments>
                    <remove segment="bin" />
                </hiddenSegments>
            </requestFiltering>
        </security>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>
So that the HTML web galleries' "bin" sub-directories are accessible.

CS6 Bridge Under Windows 8 Slow Response

When I use CS6 Bridge in Windows 8 (64 bit) it takes about 10 seconds to open a folder. I select an image from the grid and press the spacebar to see it full size. It takes another 10 seconds. If I go to the Menu Bar and click on an item such as Window it takes about 10 seconds to get the drop down list, but if I then slide the cursor over to View and click on it, the menu appears right away and if I then click on Full Screen Preview, the full size image appears immediately. When I check the Widows Resource Monitor there is no unusual activity occurring during these 10 second intervals. It is as if the program is in a wait state pending some event.
When I was running CS6 under Windows 7 (32 bit) everything worked fine. When I run CS4 Bridge on Windows 8 (64 bit) it also runs fine. I have purged the cache, and increaed cache size but to no avail. My system has lots of processing speed, memory and disk space.
Does anyone know what I could do to get CS6 Bridge running correctly in my Windows 8 environment?   Is it possible that there is some kind of incompatibility with
Bridge, Windows 8 and the GPU?

I discussed this "solution" with Adobe back in July. Here is their response.
"There really should be no reason that running in Vista compatability mode would change the behavior of the application. Vista and 7 are so similar at the fundamental level that there shouldn't be any advantage.   Really, this is likely pointing to a lack of OS updates being installed, or installed improperly. One person mentioned that a new user account fixed things. I have a feeling that would true of more folks who are willing to try it. I'll run this by my collegues though."
But if it works it is better than the alternative.    curt
Surprisingly the bit about trying it under a different or new user actually works here. All the aggruvating 5 to 10 second long freezes disappear when used under a fresh account.
Ok, so how can that be parlayed into being able to use Bridge CS6 under my own account?
Does the fact that it works as expected under a new fresh account point to something particular that needs changing or adjustment under my regular account?
The Adobe staff person seems to think it is most likely a problem of (lack of) updates or incorrectly installed updates, but that would not have any bearing if changing to a new account fixes the problem would it?
PS - How does one run in Vista compat mode?

Edits made in earlier Camera Raws are not displaying in CS6 Bridge for PC

All the painstaking adjustments and croppings I've made over the years to my raw files in earlier versions of Camera Raw do not show up in CS6. It's as though I never did any adjustments.
But if I open the files in CS6 Camera Raw and make a tiny tweak adjustment for all files (such as +1 in saturation), then the entire set of previous adjustments DOES show up in CS6 Bridge.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop CS6 a whole bunch of times and this never corrects!
Is there any fix for this? Or did I just get a BAD copy of Photoshop CS6 and am stuck, since there doesn't seem to be ANY support from Adobe for this.
I am subscribed to CC and this problem does not happen in CC Bridge, but I want to maintain CS6 because I don’t trust Adobe to keep the CC price at something I can afford.
PLEASE can someone offer a suggestion???

You have thumbnails set to embedded. They will not show edits unless you opt for some version of HQ thumbnails, but these take up a lot more room and and slower to build. Your choice.

MW64, cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the context menu does not retain recent folder destinations after I close the program

W64, cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the context menu does not retain recent folder destinations after I close the program. The context options that show are the ones from original install. The workspace I set up is also gone. I have every explorer box and cleaner checked to save recent. Had to disable nivedia desktop software because of weird display conflict. Have Dell pro support and they cannot fix. Any ideas to help me with this would be appreciated.

Self-solved! I work in column view in Finder so get there in a Finder window with folders and files appearing.
There really is no problem, just select an ITEM in the COLUMN before right-clicking!
The "old" context menu will appear. If you click in the white space in that column (or anywhere in a Finder window) and then place the cursor over a folder or file WITHOUT selecting it and right-click you will bring up the secondary context menu - Open, Copy, Duplicate, View Options and a greyed out Labels option. No "Move to Trash".

I am having problems opening images renerated in lightroom5 into cs6. Cs6 bridge does not see the lightroom libarary. If I open lightroom and right clik the image, edit in cs6, 6 opens but the picture doesnot follow. What is going on? Give me a hand.

What edition of LR 5? What edition of ACR does PSCS 6 contain. If they are not parallel (same edition number x in [5 or 8].x ), is LR making a tiff or psd rendition of the image?

Photoshop CS6 & Bridge CS5

Presently I have installed on my computer (Windows platform) Photosop extended, Dreamweaver, Premiere pro, encore, all of them CS5
Can I upgrade only Photoshop to CS6 with Bridge CS6 ??
Will Bridge CS6 co-exist with Bridge CS5, or will it overwrite Bridge CS5, in which case, what will I do with my other CS5 software?

Bridge CS5 and Bridge Cs6 will Coexist on the same machine together.
The CS5 apps will invoke Bridge CS5, and the CS6 apps will know to invoke CS6 bridge.
You can however only have one instance of Bridge running at any given time

CS6 Bridge por resolution

I just installed Photoshop CS6. Images that I preview in CS6 bridge using space bar or in filmstrip view are very fuzzy when compared to the same setup in Bridge CS5. Any suggestions?

Purging the cash and having Bridge regenerate previews has fixed the problem.Thanks

Might you have you CS6 Options for thumbnail quality and preview generation set to Prefer Embedded? Check your Bridge "Options for thumbnail quality and preview generation" and compare what you have set in CS6 with your CS5 settings.
