It asks me to close CS5 Bridge. It is NOT open. Help.

I am installing PS CS6 from the CD I purchased. I am told to close CS5 Bridge. It is not OPEN. Help.

My apology. I thought it was a live “chat”, and I was also very frustrated.
Yes, I am familiar with the working of Task Master, and I used it. It revealed that PS CS5 Bridge was NOT running. Can you tell me how to “get around” this problem?
Thank you for your time.

    Any and all ideas would be appreciated greatly. Working on a deadline. Thank you so much!

    Cannon 6D requires CS6 with ACR 7.3.  You either have to upgrade or convert to DNG files.

  • Installed Photoshop CC & Bridge CC Updates & now Bridge CC will not open at all

    Operating System - Windows 8.1
    Video Card Version - NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 Driver Version 9.18.13.3788 updated 6-19-14
    Processor - Intel Core i7-3770 12 GB RAM, 64 bit OS
    PS CC 14.21.1 x64
    Bridge CC 6.1.0.116 x64 (I think, I cannot open the program to verify)
    Problem:
    Bridge CC will not open.
    How Problem Began:
    I installed three updates on 6-19-14 - Photoshop CC, Bridge CC and Photoshop CC 2014.  After do that I could not open Bridge from the Windows Start menu, the task bar or from PS CC using  File>Browse in Bridge or File>Browse in Mini Bridge.  When trying to open from Start or the Task Bar the icon highlights for about 2 seconds then goes back to normal.
    There is no error message or any message except when using File>Browse in Mini Bridge in which case a "waiting for Bridge CC..." message shows continuously but Bridge CC never launches.
    NOTE: Bridge CC was used daily prior to updates with no issues.
    Steps Taken So Far:
    I uninstalled Photoshop CC 2014.
    I uninstalled Bridge CC and Photoshop CC and reinstalled them with and without the above updates several times.
    I called Adobe and was given this links with steps to try: Troubleshoot errors, freezes | Adobe Bridge | Windows, Mac OSI could not do any of the steps that required opening Bridge since that is the problem.  But I did verify no other versions were running in background, updated video card dirvers and temporaily disable scanning programs.
    I deleted the SwitchBoard file per this page: Error: Waiting for Bridge | Mini Bridge panel
    I created a new Windows user and attempted to open through that user.
    None of the above had any impact.
    Does anyone have suggestions of next steps to try to resolve this issue and get Bridge CC working again?

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 will not open

    Just started trial of Adobe Photoshop CC  ( CS6 and Bridge CS 6)
    Photoshop  downloaded ok but Bridge CS6 will not open after installation.
    I have used Adobe Bridge with CS2 before but since removing CS2 and installing CS6 and Adobe Bridge 6 64Bit Adobe Bridge will not open.
    Help
    watchet7

    CS2 seems to conflict with CS6.  One user found this to work.  AppData is a hidden folder in case you try this.
    I finally got it to launch via instructions from another web page. In my case, I am running Win 7 Professional 64-bit and previously loaded Photoshop and Bridge versions CS2 (along with Illustrator and InDesign CS2), which might have been part of the problem. The solution for me was to create an empty "Bridge CS2" folder in the C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\. Worked like a charm.
    You might have to use the Adobe Script Cleaner to get rid of traces of the CR2 files.

    I would like to be able to edit MP4s in CS5.  I can not open the file. What am I missing?

    According to the publisher For GoSystem Tax, the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer 8, 9, or 10 is required.  Which means it can't be accessed from an iPad.  This seems weird.  I would recommend you contact the publisher.

  • Bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace

    bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace. this patch was recommended by adobe help to allow creating pdf presentations. the help stated bridge cc was shipped without this and to download aom package win 64. I tried that, and either did something wrong or? I deleted bridge cc 64 bit, then went to cc and downloaded bridge cc (not sure if it is 32 or 64) and the program still does not open. any ideas?

    There are lots of threads on this.  Do a web search.

  • After using PS CS6 for well over a year, Bridge now will not open RAW images in Camera Raw, although

    After using PS CS6 for well over a year, Bridge now will not open RAW images in Camera Raw, although Photoshop does. When I try to open them in Bridge, I receive a popup message that says that it "requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature." Obviously, I have done so hundreds of times since installing and activating CS6. What gives, and how do I fix it?

    Things have now become significantly worse!
    Now when I try to open anything from Bridge, or try to open PhotoShop at all, I receive a popup that gives me 2 options: 1) License PS CC, or 2) continue with my trial of PS CC.
    So far as I know, I have not downloaded any trial of anything from Adobe in many months. In fact, I have no interest in PS CC. I wish simply to use PS CS6.
    I have uninstalled my Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard, of which my PS CS is a part, and reinstalled it but I still am blocked from using my properly licensed programs.
    Please advise.

    Refer this article to reset Winsock to it's default.  Your PCTools may have inserted LSP.

  • 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.

  • Cs5 bridge has option..open in raw converter...greyed out

    i just purchased and installed cs5, love the updates i have seen yet.....but cs5 bridge has stopped opening raw files, it actually never did open the first one..the option to open in camera raw is greyed out...i can use photoshop to open raws, one at a time...tried updating to raw converter 5.7,. cs5 still works, bridge does not...any thoughts?
    Malcolm

    ACR 5.7 is for CS4.
    For CS5 you need Camera Raw 6.1.
    You have to have the ACR in the correct folder and only one file there.

  • Have tried to uninstall FF 3.6.14 to download 4.0 but it then asks me to close FF - trouble is I cannot open it so where to from here?

    When I click the FF icon the hourglass appears but quickly disappears so I cannot open it at all. I thought I'd uninstall it & reinstall but the wizard asks me to close FF first...but it's not open so I'm stymied.

    Hello Sophie,
    I think you should update to the highest level for your particular OS.   Follow these suggestions and be aware it is a big (but free) update.
    Once you are on Snow Leopard 10.3 to 10.6 you will need to apply the Combo updater.  Click on this ☟
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 
    and when it is installed follow by going to software update to pick up the later security and iTunes improvements.   This update should see you with the Garage band version for that 10.6.8 OS.

  • Adobe Bridge CC will not open

    Hello,
    I have quite a few CC products downloaded. Everything has been working fine, but then Bridge stopped opening. I uninstalled Bridge CC and reinstalled and I still can not open the program as a stand alone, or from within Photoshop CC. I click on the application, the icon bounces on the bottom doc and then closes. In Photoshop, I click "browse in Bridge" or "open Mini Bridge"-I get a message,  "waiting for Bridg"e and then the program does not open.
    I started having a problem when I followed Adobe's directions and tried to add the "Import Workspace ( I was trying to made contact sheets in Bridge) into the approporiate application's folder in Bridge. For some reason, this computer did not like me doing this. On my other mac, (not running maverick), everything (the import panel was successfully added) is fine. I went ahead and unistalled Bridge and reinstalled it on my laptop, but still can not open Bridge.
    Before I uninstall and reinstall Bridge CC again, I have a feeling there must be something else I should be doing or checking to see what is going on. Is there a hidden cache? I have just updated all my cc apps and thought maybe there was a bug, but the program still will not open.
    I am using mac, Maverick.
    Here is a screen shot of the program folders.
    Help would be appreciated as the hold time for Adobe is 30 minutes plus.
    Thanks,
    Cheryl

    Ok, 6 hours later it's a fix for me!
    Not sure if it'll work for you but it was quite simple.
    Open Finder > (go) Computer > Macintosh HD (for me) > Users > Click once on the Home icon (main admin) > Get Info >
    click on lock and authorise bottom right > click on cog wheel drop down > click on 'Apply to enclosed items' > OK
    Close info window and try to open bridge
