Getting CS4 Bridge to Sequence in Time Taken...

I use 2 cameras for events.
Both cameras are syncd to date and time.
They are not set up to avoid the possibility of overwriting by the same filename assigned by the camera. This seems potentially problematic and is not foolproof.
The workflow I tried was:
Load D700 files into one folder
Load D90 files into another folder.
Batch rename the D700 files as a text/sequence e.g. Event_001 to 099
Add the D90 files to the D700 folder.
Select all and batch rename e.g Event_001 to 250.
Next Select All and sort by Date Created (i.e. the date taken in camera)
Select All and Batch Rename e.g. Event_001 to 250.
Note I have checked the Time Taken filter in Meta Data
Now, there may be a smarter way of going about this, but at no time did Bridge ever sort in order of time taken so that all my photos for the day could be put into sequence.
Bridge only sorted by date taken and then by file name order.
Summary objective:
To end up with all photos taken using two cameras and multicards arranged in sequence by TIME TAKEN, without the fear of accidentally overwriting files of the same name assigned by the different cameras
Any help with this, please?

I'd recommend a creative use of bridge's batch rename:  Load all photos from one camera into your desired folder.  Batch rename them all by prefixing the camera's file name with a camera-unique tag such as D7 -- something that would not be possible as the first two characters of camera created file names.  Then load all photos from the other camera into the folder.  At his point there should be no filename synonyms. 
I sort by Date Created (English language selected, I don't see a 'time taken' sort option in Bridge). 
I regularly do a variation of this with Canon camera files: load files from one camera's memory cards, batch rename the first three characters (IMG) to a camera-specific string, then repeat for other cameras.

  • 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!

  • Sorting photos by date/time taken, when date/time created is not an option?

    I'm so sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I can't find it on Google or in the forums...
    I need to sort wedding photos from multiple photographers by date taken so I can sort through the wedding as a full event. Sorting by the date/time the file was created will not suffice because I had to convert all photos from one of my photogs from NEF to DNG (D610 files not compatible with CS5), so the 'date created' for those DNG file is days later than all the other images. Thus, sorting by "date created' batches all the photos from one of my photogs together at the end.
    Is there any option in Bridge that will actually read the metadata and sort by the shoot time of the image?
    Thanks for any help!

      There has been a known bug in PSE9 although only affecting raw images and caused by the Camera Raw 6.4 update. The timestamp gets changed by one hour each time an image is modified. I don’t know if your issue is related but the work around is to revert to ACR 6.3
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/915/cpsid_91582.html
    The only other work around is to temporarily switch to folder location view, if your images were imported from a single folder. Click on the display button (near top right in Organizer) to change the browser view. If you click on the folder in the left hand pane the files will normally be in sequential file name order which usually mirrors the date/time taken. From the folder location it’s possible to create an instant album, which can then be used as the basis of a slideshow.

  • 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!

  • Removing CS3 bridge, keeping CS4 Bridge...

    I am cleaning out previous version of CS3 suite from a mac. However I've had some issues that I wondered if anyone has a solution to.
    When running CS3 Bridge, images there are not in CS4 Bridge. There is no export feature I know of (is there?). How do I get everything that is in CS3 Bridge to CS4 to show up before I delete CS3 apps ?  (this macbook pro I am using was loaded from CS2 days up to CS4...I have inherited it at work and need to make room but still keep images intact, plus I never used Bridge before so any noob help is appreciated)

    Bridge only creates preview thumbs for its own cache library and not the
    original files, they keep untouched in the same folders as you have them now
    on your system.
    You can safely uninstall CS3 without losing images. However you will need to
    cache the images again when opening CS4 but that is only taking some time.
    You will need to recreate new workspaces for PS and Bridge and also set the
    preferences again to your wishes but that is only once. Keep in mind that
    actions and brushes that you have created or loaded on your CS3 app don't
    copy automatically. Best you save them from PS CS3 first in a folder you can
    easily access and in CS4 load them again from that folder.
    For exact location for prefs in CS3 and CS4 see those knowledge base

  • 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 to get the loaded client sequence file path/name?

    I added a step in Process model, and wanted to get currently loaded client sequence file name/path. I used the variable of "SequenceFile.Path" but then I realized what I would get is the process model file path, not loaded client sequence file path/name. How can I get loaded client sequence file path/name?
    Thanks!
    Jacky

    I dont understand what you are trying to achieve.  Can you provide more information.
    If you are trying to dynamically load and run a client sequence file at run time you need to make a couple of calls to the TS API from inside the process model, Engine.GetSequenceFileEx to get a reference to your sequence identified by its pathname, and then Execution.ClientFile to tell the process model which sequence you want to run.

    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>

    Thanks!

    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.

         trace("Mouse clicked");

  • 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  :-)
