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

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.

Firefox 3.6 requires at least OS X 10.4, the last version of Firefox that worked on OS X 10.3.9 was Firefox 2.0.0.20 which is available from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/

Please help! iPhoto will not import images

I've imported thousands of times and suddenly, today I am unable to import my pictures from one of my memory cards to iPhoto. Now I did click on cancel import, because I wanted to name my roll, etc. That is where the problem started. After I clicked on cancel import, I was never able to get iPhoto to open up to import those photos from that particular memory card again. Do you think the card is corrupt? I am able to view the pictures on my camera...just am unable to import them. What can I do??? I have very important pics on this card!! Thanks for helping.

Oh no! But, I am able to see the pictures on my camera review screen though. If the card was damaged, I wouldn't be able to review the images on the camera right? I think I may have turned off the camera too soon during the initial import, and somehow that messed up the card?? My husband is going to be so ticked off if we can't get these photos to import somehow! And I have some pictures of my niece's graduation on it also! What a nightmare!

CS3 corrupting images

I am using CS3 in OS X 10.5. All of a sudden my photos are getting corrupted. I can see an image in Bridge, but when I click on it the image becomes completely distorted. It becomes colorful horizontal lines. I tried removing CS3 and re-installing it, and the corrupted images looked ok after this, but again when I clicked on them, they would get distorted again. I have no idea what's causing this, but I'm hoping someone can tell me, so I know how to fix it and avoid it in the future.
Thank you!
Tom

Thanks for the reply Chris! That was one of my guesses. I ran disk repair on the drive and it didn't come up with any errors, is there a test for the RAM? I've called Apple before with photoshop issues and they've said they can't really help with 3rd party apps, but this is a fairly new iMac. I will be sure apple care is extended for it and work with them. In the meantime, I deleted all the files that seemed to be having issues and will watch to see if any others have problems, but it seems to be limited to one folder so far.
Thanks,
Tom

Corrupt image files cause upgraded iPhoto to crash

I have been spending some time trying to find and remove corrupt image files from my iPhoto library. These are not just scrambled images when viewed they crash any and every program you view them with. Including Finder. I accidentally put one on my desktop and finder went into a auto restart cycle I could not stop. until I removed the file with pathfinder. I have found about 30 of these so far (my library is about 25,000) Many of these are in the data file but some are not. They are of all types (jpg,tiff,psd) Thorsten Lemke, (Lemke Software) tells me it is a quicktime issue.
Here is a link to one of these files. Warning it will crash safari if you try o view it.
http://vincentdavis.net/try/try.jpg
Here are my questions.
1. is there some way to fix these
2. is there some efficient way to find and remove/fix them?
3. how did this happen? I had no problem before update (that I knew of)
Thanks
Vincent

I did try the link, and as you said - it crashed Safari. However, I have google searched and also searched the Apple Support sites for 'fix corrupt images' with no luck. I'm sorry but I think the only way of knowing is to try and open each of them.
However, I did read on Macworld's site once that sometimes photoshop or other image editing programs can open the corrupt files.
Sorry for not being much help here - I hoped that my first suggestion would have done the trick.

Aperture corrupting images during editing

Hello,
Starting a few days ago, aperture started corrupting images during editing. This was normally at the time of my fist cut, going through doing simple straighten and croping. Sometimes it would happen when doing a small lighten or darken of the exposure. I purchased a new MacBook Pro about a month ago but this only started happening this week. No OS or Aperture upgrades this week. I did have a crash earlier this week and after the crash my Spotlight re-indexed my computer. I updated QuickSilver this week and Awaken. I tried quiting both QS and Awaken but problem still happens. The real scary thing is I usally have to go back and re-import the raw CR2 image to fix the problem, doing an update from master or resetting all adjustments does not fix the problem. Below is an example of an image with the problem. This is a Version Export of a corrupted image, as you can see the cor Can I get any help?

Ernie Stamper:
The Aperture Libraries are on the local drive. I do have an external Firewire drive I can use to test your theory but since I recently replaced the whole laptop at the Apple store so I am thinking it is not hardware related but one of three things: an Aperture bug, my configuration, or memory (see more on memory below).
leonieDF:
I don't think it is related to a hardware issue unless it is memory. I took the laptop into the mac store because I was having a hardware issue not discussed in this thread. The laptop was completely replaced except for the memory since I purchased 8GB of memory after the computer was purchased. I put the 8GB memory back into the new laptop. If this is a memory problem it is not showing up in diagnostics. I am planning on doing two things this weekend. First thing is putting back in the original apply memory and testing. If I still get the issue I am going to do a complete uninstall of Aperture and re-install maybe something in my settings/libaries are corrupted. I am reaching for straws at this point. I might also try a complete reformat and only install Aperture and test to see if something else installed might be causing this, but I can't think of what it would be.

Frustration - Iphoto corrupting image files during import (?)

To begin with, I'm a recent convert from Windows to the Mac. I'm running a mac mini at home, and a Macbook with Boot Camp at work (in addition to my desktop pc). All of my software is up to date...
I take alot of pictures with my digital camera (canon powershot). Saturday I took about 300 pictures, took the SD card out of the camera, put it into my Sandisk card reader, imported the pictures into iphoto and everything worked great. I chose to not delete the pictures after the import as I wanted to bring the card into work and upload the pictures on my pc.
The next day (Sunday) I took another 70 or so pictures. I was able to view all of the pictures on my camera that I had taken over the past two days.
I go to do an import , taking the exact same procedures that I took on Saturday (and that I always do). The first thing it does is identifies that there are duplicate pictures. I choose the option of "don't import duplicates" and apply this to all of the other duplicate pictures.
At the end of the import, I got an error message saying that some of the files were corrupt. Now, there were pictures from Saturday that were still on there (and readable/viewable). However, every picture that I took on Sunday was "unreadable" and did not show up in iphoto. I put the card back into the camera, and now I can't view the pictures (they show as "corrupted data".
I then pulled the SD card details up in Finder, and the "corrupt" files still show sizes of 2.4mb to 2.8mb, consistant with the good pictures. It shows the file's "Kind" as JPG Image... I double clicked on them and Preview comes up saying something to the extent that the file is corrupt,
I've taken the Sandisk card reader, plugged it into my Macbook (using iphoto in osx) and was able to view one or two of the pictures from Sunday.
Once I got to work this morning, I plugged the sd card into my Windows machine and it too says the files are corrupt. It shows them being on the card, it shows the file sizes, but I can't open the pictures in anything...
If this was a one time deal, I'd be thinking it may be something I've done to cause the problem. However, this is the third instance I've "lost" all of my photos because of them becoming corrupt during an import into iphoto. There definately appears to be a pattern.
I have somewhere around 8,000 pictures inside iphoto that I've taken and had no problems with. I mention this to illustrate that I'm not doing anything differently than I've done before. I have another 14,000 on my old Dell that I need to move over, but I'm questioning if I should do that now.
Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem might be? Is anyone else experiencing (present or past tense) this problem? Where I'm new to the mac, I understand that I might be doing something wrong. However, I've imported photos to the software (what seems like) hundreds of times, the same way each time. This makes me want to rule out user error...
One other question, I'm saving the "corrupt files" with the hope that there's a software program which will "fix" the files. Do you happen to know of such a piece of software? I'm hoping that I can get them fixed at some point.
Where I'm taking pictures of my kids, its extremely frustrating to find out that the pictures (memories) I was hoping to make prints of are now "gone". Its almost like rolling the dice when doing a photo import any more. Most all of the time it takes, but every now and then the pics are lost...
I'm hoping to identify the problem (either user error, procedure or software issue) and fix it as I really like the mac.
Any help/suggestions you might have for me would greatly be appreciated!

The Chainsaw
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
First: the corrupt files: download Graphic Coverter, a shareware which is often successful where other software isn't. But first, if the Mac will let you, copy the files off the card to the Mac.
I'm in this board a while now, and I can't recall an issue of iPhoto corrupting images on import. After all, it's just a simple file copy, at heart. I would be more inclined to suspect the card. DO you have more than one? Does the problem also occur with the other cards?
Try use Image Capture to download the pics to the Mac first, then import them, see does that help. Image Capture is in your Applications folder.

ITunes sometimes 'thinks' the iPod is corrupted

iTunes sometimes thinks the iPod is corrupted. But it only thinks so if I connect the iPod WHILE itunes is running. If I connect the iPod and then start iTunes there isn't a problem. Or if the message below appears I can click OK.. stop itunes, restart itunes and then iTunes can see the the iPod just fine.
http://codethought.com/images/itunesfailmsg.png
I've tried reformatting the iPod - same thing. I've also flushed my OS installation out.. reinstalled OS X from scratch.. and the problem went away... until today. Now the problem is back.
Any thoughts on how to determine what the root cause might be, or how to diagnose it?

I am having the same problem with my old iPod. I just bought a new iPod an hour ago and same thing.
Help anybody?

Attempting to upgrade to Firefox 3.6 (using an ancient Mac OS 10.3), but received an error message (corrupt image file) when downloading - any way to correct this with my current OS?

I'm currently trying to update a few programs on my good old (VERY old) Mac Powerbook, but I ran into an error when downloading Firefox version 3.6...I'm currently running Mac OS X 10.3.9, which isn't compatible with the most recent versions of Firefox (or anything, for that matter), but it should still allow an upgrade of version 3.6; however, once the file finished downloading, an error message popped up indicating there's a corrupt image file. Is there any way to work around/correct this problem, or am I stuck with my old version of Firefox until I bite the bullet and upgrade my OS??? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Firefox 3.6 requires at least OS X 10.4, the last version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.3.9 is Firefox 2.0.0.20 available from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/

Can I use Bridge to export image data into a .txt file?

I have a folder of images and I would like to export the File Name, Resolution, Dimensions and Color Mode for each file into one text file. Can I use Bridge to export image data into a .txt file?

Hello
You may try the following AppleScript script. It will ask you to choose a root folder where to start searching for *.map files and then create a CSV file named "out.csv" on desktop which you may import to Excel.
set f to (choose folder with prompt "Choose the root folder to start searching")'s POSIX path
if f ends with "/" then set f to f's text 1 thru -2
do shell script "/usr/bin/perl -CSDA -w <<'EOF' - " & f's quoted form & " > ~/Desktop/out.csv
use strict;
use open IN => ':crlf';
chdir $ARGV[0] or die qq($!);
local $/ = qq(\\0);
my @ff = map {chomp; $_} qx(find . -type f -iname '*.map' -print0);
local $/ = qq(\\n);
#     CSV spec
#     - record separator is CRLF
#     - field separator is comma
#     - every field is quoted
#     - text encoding is UTF-8
local $\\ = qq(\\015\\012);    # CRLF
local $, = qq(,);            # COMMA
# print column header row
my @dd = ('column 1', 'column 2', 'column 3', 'column 4', 'column 5', 'column 6');
print map { s/\"/\"\"/og; qq(\").$_.qq(\"); } @dd;
# print data row per each file
while (@ff) {
    my $f = shift @ff;    # file path
    if ( ! open(IN, '<', $f) ) {
        warn qq(Failed to open $f: $!);
        next;
    $f =~ s%^.*/%%og;    # file name
    @dd = ('', $f, '', '', '', '');
    while (<IN>) {

Checking for corrupt image or element

Hi
Hoping someone may be able to help, I have a 256 page book which I created in InDesign CS3, the book is made up of several documents.
I need to export to a PDF, each time I try it fails as there is a corrupt image. Is there anyway I check the documents for corrupt elements before I create the PDF?
Any help appreciated.

You need to "Divide and Conquer." It's not unusual to have a failure exporting to PDF with low disk space, but that might not be your problem. In either case the first step is the same. Divide the document in half during the export process and see if each half will export separately.
If you can export both halves, you may need to live with that and simply recombine them in Acrobat. I don't recall any definitive answers for what to do fix this. Deleting temporary files may help.
If you still get a failure, divide that section in half and try again (see below). If both sections fail, it could be either a bad font or more than one bad image.
Make a copy of the document and change all the fonts to something simple and reliable, like Times New Roman, and see if that works. If it does, make a new copy of the original and eliminate fonts one by one, starting with cheap or freebie fonts from the web, and test after each replacement.
If only one section failed it's more likely an image, and you should be able to isolate the page by continuing to divide the section that fails. Once you know which page, make a copy, and remove images one by one, starting with .eps if there are any.
If you find a bad image, try resaving it and replacing with a native .ai or .psd.

Why does Bridge always sort images by rating instead of by date modified?

Why does Bridge always sort images by rating instead of by date modified?
This drives me bonkers. Everytime I look for an image I've been working on, I go to Bridge and I'm always presented with the images sorted by rating instead of by date.
Then I click on the microscopic sized, extremely tiny arrow that allows one to choose 'sort by date modified' and I resort them to find the file I need. So that's always 3 extra clicks to find the image.
WHY can't Bridge sort images by date modified and STAY that way every time I come back?
Thanks for any help.
I know I could just keep the recent files rated the highest, but still, I'm wondering if there's a way to make it work the way I'd like it to work?
jn
p.s. Note to Adobe: Please make the selection button for sorting images arrow larger than a fraction of the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Thanks.

WHY can't Bridge sort images by date modified and STAY that way every time I come back?
By default it does stay at the latest selected sort order so this could mean it is due to your install.
First of all try to reset the preferences for Bridge, hold down option key while restarting Bridge and choose reset preferences. This sets it all to default. First try if the problem is solved then set prefs again to your own custom wishes.
Also check and repair permissions for the OSX itself (Apple has disk utility in the utility folder for this job, and there are other 3th party applications)
And be sure to have the latest update for Bridge. (Bridge CS5 should be 4.0.5.11)
In addition to the method Tai Lao pointed you already to there is a third option, use right click mouse button in content window and the pop up menu has also the sort option at the bottom of the row
