How do i close CS5 Bridge.exe when Bridge is not open?

I can't download updates because Bridge CS5 application manager says "close bridge.exe" when Bridge is not open.

You have Bridge set to "open on startup" so it is running in the background. To disable this feature it is in advanced preferences.
To solve your imediate problem, open task manager (ctrl+alt+delete) and click on processes tab. Go down the list and look for any instance of Bridge.exe and close it.

Hi All, I have a big program including a lot of things. When I converted it to an exe file, it cannot be closed properly. I used to load the dynamic vi in this program and cannot close it by clicking "X" of the window. Now I have removed that dynamic load but still cannot close the exe. Could anyone give me some advice? Thank you!

Hi Freelance_LV, thank you for your advise, here is a program for a USB dongle. Here are the answers:
for now, questions:
1. how are you closing the EXE? Panel close (X) on the top right corner/stop or exit button on the GUI?
[A] I use (X) on the top right corner but it did not work. But when I use exit button on the GUI it worked.
2. Or are you using a FP Close invoke node?
[A] No
3.how are you handling the event for Panel close or for Stop/exit button?
[A] events are inside a sequence frame
how many loops are running in parallel inside the EXE?
[A] It is hard to tell. I am not the original creator of this code, but the main structure is this: a big "for" loop, inside there are some sequence frame, and some events in one of the frame.
how are you stopping those loops when the panel is closed or a Stop/Exit button is pressed.
[A] the main loop inlcudes some events, sequence frame, and something like this. And there is a subvi from some previous people's work to close USB.
have you checked if all the loops are closing when you stop the EXE?
[A] Sorry I don't know how to check all the loops are closed.
does this work well when you run the source code?
[A] yes source code can be always be closed well.
have you checked for any errors when yuo stop your EXE?
[A] sorry I don't know how to check for errors?
when you say it cannot be closed properly, there could be two things:
1. the front panel/GUI does not close and it stays there. you cannot perform any GUI actions, or it seems to have hung.
[A] Yes GUI still there. But cannot perform any GUI actions.
2. the GUI closes but you can still it in the task bar below, you will have to use the Task manager to force close the executable.
[A] Not this case.
Thank you very much!

I cannot download Photoshop CC to my PC. It fails at 43% download with request to close Adobe Bridge. However Bridge is not open. I successfully downloaded LightRoom CC.

I cannot uninstall Bridge from my CS4 without installing Photoshop as well. I don't want to lose CS4 until I know I have CC installed successfully yet Photoshop CC will not download because there apears to be a conflict with CS4 Bridge. Advice would be appreciated.

Jeff, Thanks for response. I simply got message 'please close Adobe Bridge, wait a few minutes (43) and try again.'
As far as I was aware Bridge was not open.
However I thought more about it and realised it might be working as a background utility. I disabled Bridge from the start up routine and successfully downloaded Photoshop CC so problem solved.

Terminate the process in task manager or turn off Minibridge in the PS prefs and restart your system.

SQL 2008 R2: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio cannot shut down because a modal dialog is active. Close the active dialog and try again

When starting SQL Server 2008 R2 it hangs , and I cannot exit...so when trying to logoff to reset I get the following "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio cannot shut down because a modal dialog is active. Close the active dialog and try again"Any
ideas?

Big edit...
I have 2008 R2 SP2 installed on my Windows 7 Machine which is also fully updated. The marked answer above is clearly not the solution.
The fix I had posted before did not work. It appeared to work temporarily, but now I am back to the same invisible dialogue. I have not been able to identify any pattern by which this is triggered. I can have an entire day without this
issue and then it appears the next.
The invisible modal dialogue is definitely the connection dialogue. The only way out is to hit the escape key to close it, but then I am no better off without an ability to connect to a server. The dialogue is still invisible when I re-open it.
However, even as I type this post, I have just gotten the dialogue to appear after restarting Management Studio, hitting escape, then clicking connect again. That same pattern failed just minutes ago numerous times. Again, I can't find any pattern.
See you in the clock tower.

I cannot close the icloud backup message and I cannot even shut down the iPad to use any of the apps

I cannot close the icloud backup message and I cannot even shut down the iPad to use any of the apps. Any tips or help would be appreciated

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Since dowloading Ios7, my ipad cannot connect to 3G and when I have no wireless or 3G connection, it closes down and reboots every 2 minutes or so. This happened in central Manchester and also on the Virgin Train from Man. to London. Totally unusable.

Since downloading IOS 702 I cannot access 3G. Also when I have no access to wireless connection my ipad closes down and reboots every couple of minutes. I was trying to raed a book on a train from Manchester to Euston and had to give up. I found that auto-lock had defaulted to 2 minutes. I changed it to never but it made no difference.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

3. The app will fly off the screen

I have just updated my iPad and now cannot access any apps as they just close down straight away. Any ideas why and how to solve?

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
I've also seen it suggested that people try downloading a free app from the store onto the iPad (as that seems to reset something), and then re-try the apps - the free app can then be deleted.
