LR not getting labels and ratings from Bridge - SOMETIMES?

I'm starting to feel a bit masochistic 'cause I just keep trying to use Lightroom... But, there are enough things that are so much easier to do in Bridge that I still use it for everything but Lightroom's Develop module...
Anyhow, in Lightroom I loaded a directory of images (about 70). In Bridge I examined the same directory of images and rated some with 5 stars, and some of those with GREEN...
Back to LR... None of the changes show up. Looked around LR for something that would tell it to update the images in its library. The only thing I could find was the metadata/XMP/Import XMP thing, and that didn't do anything (is there something else in there that I'm just missing?). Finally, I DELETED the whole directory, and imported the images again. STILL no labels or ratings. I even shut down LR and Bridge and restarted LR to see if that'd help... Then did the metadata/XMP/Import again. Still no change.
Now I KNOW this has worked before, 'cause I've seen the images with the labels and ratings... Any ideas how come it refuses to work on these images?
BTW: If I change a label or rating in LR it shows up immediately in Bridge.

Tried that as part of the "how do I get metadata from Bridge into here" activity... On this set it still didn't bring in the changes... It may just be an aberation but its really bizarre to have different sets of images appear differently... But, since I just got killed by LR and its "Out of Memory" message I'm back to square one again anyhow.

    I am trying to down load my new ipad and used general settings and download as directed, but did not get contacts and pictures from iphone.  What do I need to do?

    I do not know how you "down load my new ipad ". You purchase an iPad. Maybe this will help:

  • Can not get mail and  messages from old phone to my new phone

    can not get my mail and text messages transferred from my old Verizon Droid x2 to my LG Optimus  what's the process

        lock321, Let's get your information transferred! Text messages do not transfer from device to device unless you have backed the text messages up with an application on your Droid X2. Do you recall backing your text messages up using our  Verizon Cloud http://vz.to/1BkRU5Tor another 3rd party app? Emails usually transfer over once you add your email account information into the LG Optimus. http://vz.to/1BkRYCK

  • Get playcount and ratings from ipod when pc library doesn't match ipod

    After updating iTunes, the library on my PC was erased.
    So I imported an exportfile 15 months old to the new library and added all songs in my "recently added" (of past 15 mths) on my iPod.
    So far so good.
    The problem is that this new library doesn't match the one on my iPod, though they are the same. The only difference: all ratings and stats that are on my iPod but aren't on my PC.
    Is there any way to get the "library identifier" on my PC and iPod to match again, so my stats and ratings are updated to my PC?
    Cheers,

    Which model of iPod do you have? I have a 160GB Classic (this forum) which _does not_ show Podcasts under the Music folder, and apparently does not have an option to do so. However, I also have a 5th generation 30GB video iPod, which does show Podcasts under the Music folder. Straight away, you'll notice that different modles behave differently, so we need to know.
    So, that's the first thing to sort out.
    Then, on your manual recordings, did you add all the relevant artist information to the file (i.e. the MP3 tags) when you created them? If not, that will be why they only show up in songs, (but there may be another cause too!). You can fill in any missing information by highlighting the song and clicking on *File/Get Info* and adding the info then.
    In the long term, the probably answer to your manual files is to give them their own genre and then search for them that way.

  • Bridge labels and ratings problems involving Premiere Pro

    I recently went on vacations and took a lot of video with my DSLR.  I took a lot of time to organize the footage by batch renaming as well as adding labels and ratings within Bridge.  I had assumed that adding this kind of metadata would stay with the clips upon importing to Premiere Pro but found today when I imported all of my footage the ratings and labels did not appear in Premiere but still appeared in Bridge.  I couldn't find any helpful information on this topic online so any help that could be provided would be much appreciated.
    P.S. All of the footage was recorded to AVCHD .mts filed on a Sony A65 DSLR and im using a 2011 I7 iMac not sure if this information is usful but I thought it couldn't hurt to provide it

    Welcome to the froum.  Your submittal was great.
    I don't know if this will fix your problems, but you need to update to the current versions and see where that takes you.  Click on Downloads/updates at top of page.
    You have Bridge CS4 v.3.0.0.464 and Photoshop CS4 v.11.0 and Camera RAW 5.0.0.178.  Don't know what current version of Bridge is, but you need PS v. 11.0.1 which fixed a number of mistakes.  Also, the current RAW is 5.6 I believe.  I am still on CS3.

    This only seems to happen if I actually edit the photo in Camera RAW, I do not ask to save it (and remember these are JPG files so as I understand it any changes in Camera RAW would not be saved unless I ask to resave the file itself) but to open it directly into Photoshop (and I then save the finished work as a copy to a different place from Photoshop) but the act of making an edit in Camera RAW seems to affect the original file settings in some way, and that looses the labelling etc.
    Edits, keywords, and rating can be stored in the XMP file.  This has the same name as the file and needs to move with the file or you will loose info.  If you move or rename the file, and don't use Bridge, this file could be left behind.  You can see this file in Bridge, if you have show hidden files clicked in View.  You can look at it in Windows Explorer if you have "show hidden files".
    Check to see if you have an XMP file in the new location.  If not then do you workflow in stages and see if you have an XMP file after edits before you save it to another location.
    Hope this helps.

  • What file(s) keep Bridge labels and ratings

    Using Bridge CS4  3.0.0.464, and have lost some of the labls and ratings I had given images. I was unable to regain them
    from .xmp files, or cache files, so had to get them from backed up folders of those images, though all the image files themselves
    were still fine. Would be nice to know as these help me keep track of things if I'd ever lose them again. Thank you.

    Dear all,
    I read this post and hope to clarify the design and ask some questions:
    Issue 1:
    How to access folder 'user/app data/Roaming/adobe/bridge' that Curt Y mentioned:
    Please note on Windows 7 or Vista, the folder 'AppData' is hiden by default, you can either show hiden files, folders and drives out by changing the OS folder options, or you can directly input the path '[CurrentUser]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Bridge CS5/' to enter the folder directly.
    Issue 2:
    Where the Labels and Ratings are stored.
    For all the XMP-supported files (e.g: include almost all the Camera Raw files, Images file, PDF, Illustrator files, InDesign files, video, audio, etc. An easy way in Bridge to know whether a file is XMP-supported file or not is to show out a property named 'Supports XMP' in metadata panel by checking on the item in Bridge Preferences -> Metadata -> File Properties -> Supports XMP), the Labels and Ratings are stored in the files themselves, or the file's sidecar file (for Camera Raw files, usually it is the .xmp file with same name of the raw file)
    For all the XMP-unsupported files (e.g: folders, .txt, .doc, .xls, etc...), the Labels and Ratings are stored in the hiden file named .BridgeLabelsAndRatings which located in the same folder with the XMP-unsupported files you labeled/rated.
    As I know, the file's labels and Ratings info won't be stored in the folder '[CurrentUser]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Bridge CS5/'.
    Issue 3:
    Labels and Ratings lost issue
    If you copy/move files inside Bridge, either XMP-supported files or XMP-unsupported file shouldn't lost their label/rating info.
    If you copy/move files outside Bridge, e.g, to copy or move them in Finder or Explorer:
    - XMP-supported files: Camera Raw files which have sidercar file
       will lost label/rating info because Finder/Explorer don't know their sidecar file should be bandled with the camera raw files.
    - XMP-supported files: other files which don't have sidercar file
       Shouldn't lost label/rating info because the metadata has been store in the files themselves.
    - XMP-unsupported files.
       Will lost label/rating info because Finder/Explorer don't know the label/rating info is stored in the hidden file .BridgeLabelsAndRatings and won't copy/move the file together.
    Questions:
    Peterimmn mentioned the label/rating lost when he saved a file, .
    - What application do you use to save the file?
    - What kind of files are you saved?
    - Are the files located on local disk?
    Thanks,
    Melissa

  • Labels and Ratings Unavailable in Bridge

    I'm able to apply neither labels nor ratings to pictures in Bridge.  Additionally, although the Labels and Filters are offered under Select Filter Categories, neither actually appears in the Filter list.   Seems to affect CS5 now as well.

    Can you right click an image from within bridge and goto the label menu, and select a label from there?
    Also to add a rating using a keyboard shortcut, press CMD-1 - 5 depending on the rating level you'd like to rate an image.
    Both labels and ratings can be found under the "Label" menu as well.
    Once labels and rating have been applied, the filter categories will become available.
    If no labels or ratings are found, then the filter categories will not be visible.
    If this doesn't help, let us know what else you're seeing, and what OS you're using
    thanks.

  • I am a student and i bought an macbook air about 1 month ago but i did not get the 100 giftcard from the apple store. can i still get it?

    Hi, I am a student and i bought an macbook air about 1 month ago but i did not get the 100 giftcard from the apple store (that comes when students purchase computers).Am i still eligible to get it?

    Not usually.
    Apple has had similar offerings every year, to which they always establish a time interval for elligibility. I've not seen where they give credit to prior sales on the education perks.

  • Losing folder labels and ratings

    This has been a very frustrating problem that I've had for years, now, and across several versions of Adobe Bridge. In a nutshell, Bridge seems to randomly lose labels and ratings on folders.
    Further information: I am not moving nor copying these folders. If anything, I periodically add some files to some of them, but there are several that I don't even touch. One day, I'll give some of these folders a label and a rating, and the next day, some of them have lost their labels and all of them have lost their ratings. Why is this? I know that labels and ratings are primarily meant for individual files, particularly images likes JPGs, but I've never seen anything that says they cannot be used with folders. Also, note that none of my labels and ratings have disappeared from files; this only seems to be a problem with folders. Please help me to understand and fix this issue.

    Also, note that none of my labels and ratings have disappeared from files; this only seems to be a problem with folders. Please help me to understand and fix this issue.
    Can't help you much because I never have used labels and ratings for folders. However, like a Raw file, folders itself are not capable of storing XMP metadata, while DNG, jpeg, tiff PSD etc, can store this metadata in the file itself. When you rate or label a folder in Bridge this metadata is stored in a hidden file with a document icon called ".BridgeLabelsAndRatings".
    You can check yourself on a folder with subfolders you have not rated before, in Menu View check the option to show hidden files, rate or label one folder and this file will show up. So either something has gone wrong with this file or you did unknowingly removed it somehow, just my guess.

  • Labels and ratings aren't being applied

    Using Adobe Bridge CC 6.1.0.115 on Mac OSX 10.9.5
    Labels and ratings aren't being applied.  Change view options - no luck.  Change label preferences to remove need for command button - no luck.
    Is this a bug?  Why isn't there a Bridge CC 2014 version?
    This is a big problem and the main reason I use Bridge - sorting media to make selects for use.  Please respond and advise - I saw similar threads here with no response.
    Thanks!!

    Ok, I found out that when I added another new CD it seems to stop saving all information once I try to rate the new files, or something like that. For example, I started changing the 'Sort Artist' category for the songs and afterwards started to rate them. This was before I clicked 'Get Album Artwork' as well so then when I closed out and opened iTunes again it had the 'Sort Artist' info right but in the wrong spot and the artwork wasn't there. One song was missing too. Is this a corrupted Library file then? It won't save any changes for any of the other songs either. It always reverts back to the old info. I'm really not sure what to do.
