CS6 Mini-Bridge showing corrupt image

I didn't know whether to post this in Bridge or here since Mini-Bridge is called from within CS6.  I've rarely used Mini-Bridge in the past because it required Bridge to be running, so I didn't see the need.  A discussion on another forum had me take a look at Mini-Bridge.  It now appears to run without Bridge, though it appears to make some sort of connection to Bridge and have it run in the background.  I pointed it to a folder and noticed several corrupt images.  I then opened Bridge and they looked fine.  I did a screenshot and the image appears corrupt in Mini-Bridge, but fine in Bridge (5.0.2), ACR (7.3), and CS6 (13.0.1).  Mini-Bridge will show several of the images corrupted, while they all look fine in Bridge or any other program.  I'm running Windows7. 
The following screenshots show the problem.  Any thoughts?
Thanks, Dennis

Mini Bridge always requires Bridge to be active for showing the content of the Bridge files. If you start mini bridge in PS without having Bridge itself zctive a message should appear that you have to launch Bridge and also a launch button to do the task for you.
In Bridge first select the file that appears corrupted in MB and with right mouse click menu choose 'purge cache for selection'. If this is not working first try a reset of the preferences for Photoshop ( on a Mac this is restart PS with holding down shift, option and command key, should be something similar in Windows)
This might work for MB but also resets the other PS prefs to factory default so you have to set your custom wishes again. Not a big deal but you have to be aware of this :-)
Same can be done for Bridge itself with restart Bridge and holding down control key and choose reset preferences. But if your first attempt with purge cache for selection works you can choose the menu tools in Bridge and while having the folder content of the problem files in the content panel choose cache/ purge cache for folder and let it rebuild.

  • Photoshop cs6 mini bridge navigation

    hi all, recently updated to cs6 - open the 'new and improved' mini bridge to much disapointment,
    incs5, i had mini bridge set to have ONE navigation window, which showed thumnails and well as folders, which behaved much like in finder in the fact that i could click on a folder within the navigation window and start typing the name of another folder (on the same level) to get to it quickly, and simply hit enter to open a folder.
    now i have a navigation panel (which i cannot start typing the letters of file name into, and have to scroll through a list of folders to get where i want), and a preview panel that does not show any subfolders within, only images, although i can navigate though images WITHIN a folder by typing an image name.
    i can't even find where to set minibridge preferences  ( in cs5 it was under 'home') so im not sure if this customisable functionality still exists and i just cant find it, or adobe have made a very big mistake by making bridge much less time efficient only alowing navigation by clicking through folders....
    anyone know how to set preferences?

  • Photoshop CS6: Mini Bridge's Reveal in Bridge clears Bridge Filter list

    I have Bridge CS6's Filter List set to reveal jpegs,PSDs,PNGs,and Tiff files,because those are the common file types I open in Photoshop. I even turn on "Keep Filter when browsing",so I do not have to repeat in each folder.
    Then later I will be in Photoshop using the handy mini-bridge. I move to a folder and decide to use the Reveal in Bridge button for a certain image. Clicking on that image does indeed reveal it in Bridge,but it also turns off all my filter selections and I have to set them again.
    Any fix for this?

    Adobe needs to realize that if "as designed" results in users thinking it's a bug or otherwise not useful — then it's a bad design choice and should be revised. They need to leave options in place for people that don't agree with some of their "new" aka bad ideas.
    Assuming users don't want to use Mini Bridge vertically is just ridiculous — especially since you can't dock it to the bottom in InDesign like you can in Photoshop.
    And not showing folders in the thumbnail view is most unintuative thing to do here. If it's a Mini Bridge, why doesn't it behave like bridge and at least have a check box for filtering out folders or something.
    Mini Bridge is kind of useless now.

  • CS6 Mini Bridge - Thumbnail size and preview

    I've just upgraded to CS6 (design & web premium) and was setting up my workspace in InDesign, and after adding (docking) Mini Bridge there seems to be no preview or anyway to change the size of the thumbnails I can view.
    I use Mini Bridge a lot as we have folders that include 100+ assets in, and it's good to see a small thumbnail to quick scan, then to click on it to see more detail.  Now all I can see is a maximum of 6 thumbnails, which means I will need to scroll a lot to find anything.
    I've read the following topic from the PS CS6 Beta forum (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4286375#4286375#4286375), and was wondering if this "as designed" thinking has been rolled over to  InDesign, meaning that in order to  change the thumbnail size (with no preview), I have to have Mini Bridge undocked and if I want to see more detail, I have to enlarge the thumbnail, then reduce again to carry on searching?
    If so, it seems like a massive oversight, as InDesign is a layout tool and having easy access to multiple documents to include (and to see what they are) is vital, which isn't helped by the seemingly arcane way to access folders.
    Hopefully this is me just being a bit dim and missing something obvious, otherwise it's going to cause a lot of hassle in my day to day work.
    If anyone has a definitive answer, that would be great.
    Cheers.

  • Mini bridge - show open files?

    when bridge was first born as file browser, and integrated into PS did it have the ability of displaying the open files in PS? 
    I'm "kinda" hoping that a bunch of people are going to jump all over this conversation and say... of course it can do it now!
    I'm very old-school and don't like the tabbed windows interface, I'm generally tossing layers around and windows are easier for me, but.... I could see that this would have some use if I was using a smaller display and if I could also use mini bridge to show thumbnails of the open files and use this to switch tabbed images. Or, if I could drag layers onto the thumbnail in Mini Bridge and subsequently bring that tabbed image to front.

    I needed to set the file type association in preferences.

  • Bridge (and mini Bridge) shows no thumbnails

    Bridge CS6 doesn't seem to work at all. The program launches fine on my Mac, but when I point it to a folder of images, I get nothing. No thumbnails or metadata. If I double click on an image (blank thumb), the image properly launches in Photoshop or ACR. I've reset the prefrences and purged the cache, but nothing has changed. At the bottom of the Bridge window, the message never seems to update. It just seems stuck there.
    Any thoughts?

  • Help: Think my bridge is corrupting images

    Hello,
    I'm having problems with Adobe Bridge CS5 to view images that were formerlybeing displayed normally.
    Some of the images I download now also have problems in viewing.
    The format ofof the images is always in Camera Raw 2 ( CR2).
    I work with two Cannon. A 1-Ds Mark III and 5D Mark II and I'm sure the problem is not the equipment.
    Sending a screen shot of the Bridge for you to understand better what happens.
    Need Help. Thanks.

    First of all, Bridge is not changing the file, only metadata if you make changes to them. You could try to use the option to purge the cache for that file (click on the file and with right mouse click choose purge cache for selection from the pop up menu) but to me it seems as a really corrupted file and if you have more it could be also due to your disk (check also your permissions and the disk itself using the Apple Disk Utility

  • Aperture Photo Book: preview shows corrupted images

    I just finalized a photo book in aperture. When running a preview as part of the first steps in buying the book, many pictures turned out to be corrupted. The showed lines and patches of the picture with different colors. I'm afraid to order the book since I'm not sure if the problem will also appear on the actual book. Can anyone help.

  • Bridge shows an image 72 ppi, but when I open the same image in Photoshop (CS5) it is showing 96 ppi???

    Just reloaded Windows 7 last week, and reinstalled CS5.  I don't remember this happening before the reinstall. Is there a setting I am missing?
    Thanks in advance!

    What this is telling you is the ppi value is missing from the metadata. Because it is in the metadata there is nothing to worry about. It can be added at any time with photoshop.
    1)Open the image in Photoshop
    2)Image>Image Size
    3)Type in the correct ppi
    4)click OK
    5)Save file to disk File>Save or if you prefer to use another name to protect the original use File>Save As then type in a name and click OK.
    The main information to protect is the pixel dimensions that pertains to the data it self. If these values change so does the data. To protect the pixel dimensions uncheck resample image if it is checked in the Image Size dialog box.

  • Item appears twice in Mini Bridge InDesign CS6

    One of our guys here keeps seeing duplicate items in Mini Bridge in InDesign CS6. When looking at the folder in Bridge, Finder or Windows Explorer, we can see just one of each image in there, but looking at the folder via Mini Bridge shows one or two of the images in duplicate.
    It seems it doesn't matter which of the duplicates he drags on the page, either of them works fine. But it is cluttering up his Mini Bridge panel and he's worried that he might accidentally delete items by trying to get rid of the duplicates.
    It only affects this one user. I've suggested deleting his InDesign preference files it's not fixing the problem.
    Any suggestions? I have to say that Mini Bridge in InDesign CS6 has been surprisingly problematic compared with CS5. I wish Adobe had left it alone.
    Ali

    I suspect the problem is in Bridge, not ID.
    Try clearing the Bridge caches or, if that doesn't work, resetting the Bridge prefs. On my Windows system you can do either of those by holding down Ctrl + Alt + Shift as Bridge starts up. On Mac I presume Cmd + Control + Opt + Shift would work the same.

  • How do you delete folders within collections in mini bridge?

    How do you delete folders within collections in mini bridge?

    his chapter on Mini Bridge where he talks about organizing your photos getting rid of some and making a folder or file sorry not certain of the terminology under Collections in mini bridge to acess your "keepers" perse.
    Not familiar with this book but if Scott is talking about using mini bridge for sorting images he is way out of line. Mini Bridge (to my opinion next to useless since they screwed it up for CS6 but that is another discussion) should be seen as a shortcut to Bridge itself when working in Photoshop on complex tasks of image or album compilation and prevent you from switching back and forward between the two applications while working on a project.
    Unfortunately some people thought that it might be useful to add more functions to it and now users start believing they don't need bridge itself for this.
    Please use Bridge itself for sorting etc and also try to get hold of a copy of 'Real World Camera Raw' written by Bruce Fraser and Jeff Schewe. They have an edition for about all CS versions and this book will let you know how to really use the power of Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw

  • Mini-bridge CS6 : impossible to show thumbnails

    Impossible to show thumbnails in mini-bridge.
    This bar which was in CS5 is missing in CS6
    Therefore you cannot neither show nor change dimensions of the thumbnails.

    But they do auto-resize as you change the height of mini-bridge, so on my PC I can see sixteen thumbnails when mini-bridge is at its smallest:
