Fxp file issue in adobe bridge

Hello, I am posting here because I believe I have a small bug with fxp files in bridge.
Basically, when I go thru Bridge to open an fxp file it opens in Flash Catalyst, but does not load the panels.
If I go thru the program and open the project in Flash Catalyst, not using Bridge in anyway it works fine.
Using Bridge 4.0.3.9 and Flash Catalyst version 1.0.0.273393
My machine is windows 7 - 64bit, i7 920 processor, 6 gig ram, gtx480 card. Drivers should be up to date.
Issue: Panels do not load (stay white) in Flash Catalyst if clicking a .fxp file in Bridge. Does work fine if opened thru the program itself.
Thank you.

Thanks for looking into it. One thing to add.
the panel tabs show up, and I can switch between tabs, unfortunately they are still white with no information in them.
Also the first time I tried to open a fxp file thru bridge, it tried opening them via After Effects, which was wierd.
A quick log off, and it fixed the problem.  I looked to make sure that the fxp extention correctly attached to a CS5 program in preferences, but I did not find a fxp extention listed in there.
Although if I right click the file and use Open with, it says, Flash catalyst is the default program for it.
Thanks again.

  • Viewing RAW file thumbnails in Adobe Bridge

    Hello folks have a problem which is driving me crazy and I'm hoping someone might be able to give me some pointers. Until recently I was able to view my NEF RAW files as thumbnails in Bridge, click on them and they open in camera raw fine. But all of a sudden though, as I open a folder in bridge I get a brief display of thumbnails which then all convert to just a white sheet icon. If i click on any of these identical icons then the file opens as normal in camera raw,but I cant see the thumbnail preview to know which shot is which. Has anyone had/solved this problem - any ideas as to what it might be causing it? All ideas gratefully received. I am using Elements 8 and Bridge CS4. I have looked through Adobes threads and they had some trouble shooting tips on the issue but these have not worked.
    One of the issues they mentioned was checking if your bridge files were in the right place. I am not sure if the bridge file should be inside the Elements file or or not - i am wondering if this might be the problem as i accidentally moved my bridge file and then moved it back to the applications file - so i have included a screen grab of where my files are. and this is what the NEF - RAW thumb looks like instead of a thumbnail
    Any help or pointers very GRATEFULLY received

    Since no one else, like Barbara has replied more to this, at least publically, I will give some suggestions although I'm a Windows user and it would seem you're on a Mac.
    The momentary flashes of image followed by a white sheet icon means that Bridge is initially showing you the camera-embedded JPG preview image, which typically has black bars, and then what is supposed to happen is Bridge uses its ACR to render each RAW using Adobe settings and recreate a new preview.  Apparently something is wrong with Bridge's usage of ACR so the Adobe-specific preview never gets created. 
    Your "new" D300 has been supported since CS3 ACR 4.3.1 so it isn't your CS4 ACR version being older than your camera that is the problem, unless the model of camera was mis-reported. 
    A clarification question: is it the case that NEFs from both your older camera and the newer D300 fail, now, in Bridge?  Another question would be what version of ACR is being used in Bridge and what is being used in Elements.  You can figure this out by doing Help / Plug-ins... / Camera RAW in Elements and maybe there is something similar in the Bridge preferences area.
    As far as what could be wrong:  on a Mac, I believe there is one ACR plug-in for Bridge and another ACR plug-in for Elements, but I have no way to verify where to look on the Mac for them.  Your symptoms suggest that the PSE ACR is ok, and the Bridge ACR went missing or was damaged, recently, and you may be able to fix things by updating the Bridge CS4 ACR plug-in on the Mac to whatever it thinks it needs, or ACR 5.7 if you want the newest one compatible with both CS4 and PSE8, although PSE8 can be updated to ACR 6.1 which wouldn't be compatible with Bridge CS4.
    First, try to use Bridge / Help / Updates to check for a new version of ACR and install one if it finds one to install.  If it sees nothing to update, then try to manually install it via the instructions on the Mac-ACR 5.7 updates page.  There is an install for CS4 and an install for PSE 8.  It isn't clear if you can merely use the update for PSE 8 or need to also do the update for CS4.  I would try both updates if you can find folders that match both the PSE and CS4 ones mentioned in the instructions. 
    To find the ACR 5.7 update for your Mac:
    Go to http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    Change the drop-down up top to Camera RAW - Macintosh and Go
    Click on the ACR 5.7 link.
    On the page that comes up there is a download and instructions for various products including PSE 8.
    You may need to clear your previews cache, again, after installing.

  • Permission Issue with Adobe Bridge

    Hello Support,
    We are an all mac environment, and we are trying to import and export templates of metadata from Adobe Bridge. The files we are accessing are on a file server on our network. When making changes to metadata using Adobe Bridge we are getting permission denied. The permissions are fine, as we can add, delete, and modify files in the same server directories using finder or other applications. This has happened in the past and the resolution was to create a a whole new profile on the local mac.The new profile then had no issues with importing and exporting metadata. However, this is now the third time we have had to create a new profile on the local mac to resolve this permission issue within Adboe Bridge. We are running Adobe Bridge CS5 version 4.0.0.5.2.9. We are wondering if there is a permanent solution to this, seeing as we do not want to have to re-create a new profile every 3-4 months. Could there be a setting in Adobe that we need to edit or anything else that would avoid us having to re-create the profile? Thanks in advance for all advice to this issue.

    any help at all would be gladly appreciated. Also, is there a phone number or chat support with Adobe support that anyone can provide?

  • FFX file preview with Adobe Bridge

    Hello all,
    I did post a similar thread in the Adobe Bridge Forum but I thought that possibly the AE comunity may understand my problem a little better.
    I wanted to begin learning After Effects CS4, unfortunately Adobe Bridge CS4 is halting my education.
    My approach to viewing the presets, I begin from within after effects, I click the drop down tool bar on the right hand side of the [effects & presets] panel, I then click browse presets
    If I explore any kind of After effects CS4 preset, and preview it inside of Adobe bridge, my pc freezes. The preview window, within Bridge CS4 turns blank white while it freezes,
    the Windows toolbar of Bridge CS4, says not responding temporarily, if a wait a little while around 30-45 seconds I regain control of my pc again, the preview box occasionally will show a still image and sometimes it will stay white or flickers. If I do wait the 30-45 seconds the toolbar window no longer says 'not responding' I can click to a (non) After effects preset folder, (for example) 'My family pictures' and it will operate normally but if I go back to the After effects CS4 presets again the freezing will occur once more.
    What I find strange is that Adobe Bridge previewing, works absolutely fine for my photoshop documents, Illustrator documents, and any Jpeg photos I have, all after effect presets fail to preview, regardless of type if it's a still shape background or animated sprite, the same freeze issue occurs
    I was wondering if anyone has helpful tips?
    so far I have downloaded all important driver updates for my graphics card, my card is a nVidia GeForce 7900 GS 256, I have also reinstalled bridge and AfterEffects, I have downloaded the latest Quicktime player, I tried reinstalling it additionally.
    I am a Windows vista user, also I have enough RAM I believe, just over 3 Giga
    I dont know how useful the info is on my Pc spec is, but I thought it could be worth mentioning.
    I have looked for a few hours to find some kind of thread with a solution, I have been unsuccessful, I hope someone can help.
    Kindest regards Julian

    Hi Mylenium, thanks for sparing me some of your time.
    I did as you said, within my QT panel, *GDI only* sadly had no positive effect from my perspective, the freezing occured as it has always
    For future reference is this setting how I should have it normally, or should i put it back on DirectX accel?
    any other thoughts on what the problem could be?
    regards Julian

  • Issue with Adobe Bridge batch rename crashing

    Hi, I have been trying to rename photo files in Adobe Bridge CC using the batch rename tool. I have just started using CC apps. All the updates are done. It crashes after doing just a few files. Started with 40 files at a time, crashed. Empty folder cache. Tried with 20 files, worked for a few times then crashed again. Tried 10 files and it crashed immediately. I found directions online (unfortunately it was for CS5, but I assume it's similar to CC). Any ideas on what to do differently? I really need to get these photos renamed and to a client tomorrow. Thanks in advance for any help.
    Cheryl

    Video card is updated, though I've been getting an error message on it.
    I'm not sure what this should have to do with your batch rename problem. Your specs seem more then sufficient and batch renaming does only save the files you already have cached.
    First check if you have enough free space left on your disk (at least 10 - 15 % free space is needed for good operation of your system and apps) and also try to reset preferences for Bridge by holding down contrl key while restarting Bridge. Check reset preferences from the pop up window and try again.

  • Testing on a Mamiya 645DF  with an Aptus II-7 back.  What do I need to do to make the files readable on Adobe Bridge CS6?

    Hi there.  I'm running tests on a Mamiya 645DF + with an Aptus II-7 back.  The RAW files are "mos."  What do I need to do in order to make the files compatible/readable in Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CS6?
    Thanks!!

    I do not see a camera named "Mamiya 645DF" in the Adobe list of cameras supported by any and all versions of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR).  However, the Leaf Aptus-II 7 has been supported since ACR 4.6 in CS3 and ACR 5.1 in CS4.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Unless Mamiya somehow messes with the raw format of the Leaf back, your files should be opened by any version of ACR that runs with CS6.  The current version is "ACR 8.6 for CS6".
    Try Purging the Cache for the offending folder(s) through the Tools menu in Bridge.
    Tools >  Cache > Purge Cache for Folder "xxxx".

  • View Quark File Previews in Adobe Bridge

    I would like to have a way to preview Quark Files in Bridge. This would be useful for people who switch between Adobe and Quark products or who are migrating from Quark to Adobe products, or like me have taken over a position where I use InDesign, and the person before me used Quark. It would increase my efficiency greatly I believe :-)
    Thank You!

    Is Bridge set up to store the ACR modifications to those XMP files? Only then it can update the preview right after working on it. Else you need to refresh the preview cache.

  • ZEN AO .MSP file issues with Adobe Acrobat

    I'm currently having the following problem...
    I've got two ZEN AO's. One for Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional and one for
    Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard. I've added the latest Adobe Acrobat 7.0.5 .msp
    (Windows Installer Patch) file to it's respective ZEN AO and incremented the
    AO version number. On my test workstations that are cleanly imaged I
    associate and install either Adobe Acrobat 7.0 ZEN AO and neither object
    applies the 7.0.5 msp during the initial installation of the object/package.
    What gives? I've noticed that during the last part of the installation when
    it looks like it's applying the .msp I see "gibberish" in the text field
    right above the progress bar of the ZEN "Distributing blah blah blah" dialog
    box. I can launch Adobe and verify that the patch has not been applied. I
    can then verify (via NAL in myapps.html) the application and the patch
    applies as expected (I can verify that by launching the application). A new
    install of these objects/packages should include the patch should it not?
    Also if the application was previously installed by this "same" AO (only the
    patch has been added and the version number incremented) and I "install" the
    application (keep in mind it's already installed) NAL / Windows Installer
    goes through the routine of installation and then appears to apply the .msp,
    again I notice the gibberish in the text field right above the progress bar
    of the ZEN "Distributing blah blah blah" dialog box. I can then verify the
    application and the patch applies as expected (again, I can verify that by
    launching the application). What is up with this? I can't believe after
    roughly fifteen agent releases (I say fifteen based on the # of releases on
    the agent release TID) that Novell can't get this basic functionality right.
    Windows 2000 SP4 Update Rollup 1 (including all updates)
    Windows XP SP2 (including all updates)
    Novell Client 4.9 SP1 (including all updates)

  • Corel Painter RIF Files In Adobe Bridge CS5.1?

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how I can view Corel Painter 12 RIF file thumbnails in Adobe Bridge CS5.1 For Windows?  Right now Bridge just shows a blank icon.  When I used Painter 11, the RIF file icons showed a thumbnail of its image in Bridge.  When I upgraded to Painter 12 this went away.  I can see the Painter RIF file thumbs in Windows Explorer, but not within any Adobe application.
    Anyone?
    Thanks,
    Michael R.

    Yep, same here. Running Adobe bridge CS5.1, upgraded to Mountain Lion yesterday. Navigated to folder that contained a zip file and Bridge crashed. I removed the zip file, launched Bridge again,and went to that same folder. Worked perfectly. On a hunch, I dragged a zip file back into that folder in Bridge, and *WHAP* down she goes again.
    Looks like we wait for a fix. *sigh*
    Unless...File type association somehow comes into it? Interesting, I just checked (it's under Preferences) and neither a zip file or a doc file is in the list.
    Furthermore, there doesn't seem to be any way to add a new file type. Hm. Don't know if it has anything to do with the crashing, but man, what a pain this is!

  • Problem viewing video-content folders in Adobe Bridge

    Hi there.
    I have problem browsing folders inside Adobe Bridge CS6. When I get into a folder that contains files that are not just images, Adobe Bridge would not responding and would have to be closed. With the folders contains only images I have no freezing issue and Adobe Bridge run very fast and normal. I usually store images and videos inside the same folder on my image-video albums. I am running windows 8.1 on my laptop computer. I have selected several files with diverse formats inside a test folder each time to check if the program is able to represent the folder or not. I choose a mp4 file inside an image album and it did not response. I replaced mp4 with a ts video file, a wma (audio) file and a docx file (Microsoft word) to see if Bridge can show the folder or not.  Only in case of Microsoft word file the program worked but with the mouse indicator twinkling. Is there any solution to the problem? Should I use a newer version of PS to overcome this drawback?
    Thanks for your attention.

    Even the latest versions of Photoshop do not support all types of video files, only some.

  • Unlocking Home folder for Adobe Bridge

    I have an iMac and Adobe Photoshop CS6.  Recently, my settings have changed so that I cannot access my home folder on Adobe Bridge.  It is showing as locked and I can't figure out how to unlock it so that I may access my pictures subfolder.  When I click on the Home folder icon, it opens up a Finder window and it does not show any of my folders or thumbnails in Bridge. If I click on a photo in the Finder window then it launches Photoshop.  Any suggestions as to how I can reset my settings to allow Bridge to access my folders?

      It is showing as locked and I can't figure out how to unlock it so that I may access my pictures subfolder.
    Where is your Home folder showing as locked? Sorry, that is not quite clear. When you are using the file choser in Adobe Bridge or when you are viewing your Home folder in the Finder?
    Are you seeing a padlock icon on the Home folder icon or a non-trespassing sign?

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 File Issues

    Hello all, I just upgraded to the Creative Cloud on my PC, downloaded PS CS6 - Bridge and Camera Raw.  I'm configuring and working with CR2 files, no problem, however, Bridge will not let me delete, rename or update the metadata of my jpgs.
    Any suggestions?
    Captain

    Curt, I'm running Windows 7 with 4 GB RAM - mother board won't support more than that.  I don't think permissions is the problem - same internal drive and the .CR2's work fine.  I can delete bad ones, batch rename and update the metadata no problem, it's just the jpegs.
    OK, I have the same setup on another computer - same Bridge version, no problems with the Jpegs.  Issue here is, it's the backup computer and not my digital processing one with all the necessary drives.
    Both computers are running Win 7 SP1 with 4 GB RAM 3.0 GHz processors.  Only difference is the digi system has 2 monitors.
    Where would I check about "Read Only" for just the jpgs?
