My edits aren't sticking in Adobe Bridge.

I open from Bridge into Camera Raw, make an edit, then when I return to Bridge the edits haven't applied and I'm left with the original. A .xmp is created but no edits hold. I have to open from Camera Raw into Photoshop to save my edit. Most of my workflow relies on Raw so this is becoming quite a problem.
Can anyone help?!

I can add after looking that the .xmp files do say that I have made edits, so they are simply not applying themselves to the pictures in Bridge.

  • How can I edit a RAW image in Adobe Bridge and/or Photoshop?

    Whenever I drag and drop a photo or group of images from iPhoto. it automatically converts them to jpegs. Even when taken as RAW images. With iPhoto 09, you could do a search of the IMG_#### listed in iPhoto, and a normally-hidden folder full of the original downloaded RAW images turned up in the search. Now, in iPhoto 11, the RAW images newly downloaded DO NOT show up in any system searches (using 10.8.4. It was bad enough when they were hidden... now they are virtually gone.
    I want to use iPhoto for organization and some editing, but some photos I want to work with in the RAW format and save as TIFFs. How do I do that?

    Whenever I drag and drop a photo or group of images from iPhoto. it automatically converts them to jpegs.
    Drag and Drop and Media Browsers access the iPhoto Previews only. No conversion, just the previews.
    With 10.8 Spotlight no longer searches within packages, that's to protect the inexperienced user from trashing his or her library inadvertently - as directly accessing the file can do.
    To use Raws with an external editor:
    First off set your preferred app as an external editor in iPhoto:
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Next: In the iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced, elect to use Raw with your External editor:
    Now when you go to edit the Raw it will be sent to your external editor.
    But there's a kludge here.
    iPhoto sends a copy of the file to Photoshop. In the case of a Jpeg you simply save and it all comes back to iPhoto seamlessly. However, if you use a Save As then Photoshop is creating a new file and iPhoto knows nothing about this.
    Now here's the catch with Raws. You cannot save a Raw. The work you do must be output to a new file, in a new format (jepg, tiff, whatever). However, as the External Editor is making this new file iPhoto has no knowledge of its existence. Therefore you must save it to the desktop and then import it back to iPhoto as a new file.
    This means that you will have your Original Raw and the processed version in iPhoto but they will not be recognised as version and original. iPhoto will see them as two separate shots.

  • Adobe Bridge CS 5 and Photoshop Elements 8 compatibility?

    I have Photoshop Elements 8 installed with Camera Raw 5.5 on a Windows 7 platform.  I recently purchased Photoshop CS 5 which came with Camera Raw 6.2.  Both products work well independently.  Where I'm encountering an issue is when I use Adobe Bridge to access an image file for processing in Camera Raw 6.2, the changes made to the file show up in Adobe Bridge, but are not observable in the Photoshop Elements Organizer.  When I look at the file properties I can see that Camera Raw 6.2 updated the file and the updated date does appear in the PS Elements Organizer.  Also the items listed in the Camera Raw metadata are different in the two products (PS vs PSE).  I'm wondering if Camera Raw 6.2 is writing data in a structure that is not supported by Camera Raw 5.5?  Will updating PSE to the Camera Raw 6.2 version solve this mystery or is likely to introduce a more serious problem?
    I happen to like some of the features of the PSE Organizer that are not available in Adobe Bridge so I'd like to have them work well together.

    Here's some additional information obtained after further investigation.
    I edited a .NEF file from Adobe Bridge using Camera Raw 6.2, then saved the file.  I checked with Windows Explorer to see that the file modification date and time reflected the current time -- they did.  Then I viewed the file in PSE 8 Organizer.  The file did not reflect the changes so I updated the thumbnail.  That made it clear that changes had been made, however, but there was a noticable difference between the renderings of the image in the two applications.  Colors appeared more saturated in the PSE displayed version.
    I've also tried to update the PSE 8 Camera Raw plug-in from the distributed version 5.5 to the current version 6.2 but was not successful.  The online instructions don't seem to address all the fine points of making that work on a Windows 7 64-bit system.
    Another less serious issue is that tags and captions don't seem to be totally mobile between the two applications.

  • Can't update Adobe Bridge CS5

    I just reinstalled Photoshop CS5 on my new replacement desktop processor.  I tried to update it but kept getting the message to close Adobe Bridge CS5.  It is closed.  I've tried the following suggestions from the FAQs:  (1) Went to Task Manager and confirmed that Adobe Bridge is closed.  (2) Tried to go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced to tell PS not to load Bridge at launch.  There is no Advanced and no check/uncheck capability.  (3)  Tried to download the 12.0.3 patch but can't find it anywhere in the downloads showing to me.  HELP!

    I finally found the answer to my question by continuing to search.  Adobe Bridge was running in the background.  To stop it, I had to go to Task Manager>Processes.  Additionally,  Edit>Preferences>Advanced was in Adobe Bridge -- not Photoshop.  I'm all squared away.

  • Adobe Bridge saving my edited files in an 'unknown format' - Losing my work

    When I edit an image in Photoshop through Adobe Bridge and save it as a jpeg, it is not saving as selected. Instead, it is saving the edited image in an 'unknown' and unusable format. I loose  my editing work. I discovered this doesn't happen if I save the image in a new folder but I would still like to fix this problem; I've been editing for two years without this issue. Has anyone else experienced this problem or know how to fix it?

    Adobe Bridge does not "save", open or edit anything other than the metadata.  The files are saved by whatever application hands them  to them, whether that be Photoshop, Camera Raw, Illustrator, MS Word or whatever. 
    If files are being lost in just one folder, you have corruption in that particular folder.  The first step is to go to the Tools menu in Bridge, and run the "Purge Cache for Folder 'xxxxyyy'"  command.  The next step is to create a brand new folder, not inside the corrupted one, and move all your files there.
    You should also run Apple's Disk Utility to Repair the Disk and to Repair Permissions for your disk.
    Next time, please provide details about your setup.

  • Editing and sharing custom metadata/keywords through Adobe Drive in Adobe Bridge

    I am part of a four-person video production unit operating within a local governmental entity. We are currently using four licenses of Adobe Master Collection CS5, and are about to get access to dedicated SAN storage.
    We would like each user to have the ability to assign specific keywords to any given video clip (or remove keywords from clips) within Adobe Bridge, and have the three other users see the same results. I've noticed that Bridge alone will allow for keywords to be added or removed, but this list is specific to each user. Importing one list into other users' profiles is a start, but would no longer work, once keywords are added or taken away.
    The overview page for Adobe Drive 3 says that it, "allows users to edit and view custom metadata/properties through Adobe Drive in Adobe Bridge," but I haven't found any explanation in either the website, forums, or user's guides that delves any farther into this area. If we incorporate Adobe Drive/Bridge into our workflow, will we be able to share/sync keywords between users? Is there some other (affordable) solution that would let us do this?
    Thanks for any insight you might be able to offer.
    Chuck

    Hi,
    Thanks for sharing your case.
    The keywords you mentioned is XMP metadata, if all your digital assets are managed by ADEP CQ DAM service, you can use AD3 with built-in ADEP connector to communicate with the DAM server, then, I think it can meet your requirement, it means, the keywords can be set by one user through metadata panel in Bridge, and can be viewed by other users.
    for custom properites, it's different from XMP metadata, it refers to the properties of one asset which is managed by a Content Management service. users have to use another UI to edit/view them in Br after AD3 is installed.
    here are some requirements to use it.
    1) CMIS 1.0 compiliant server should be used to manage all your digital assets
    2) use the built-in CMIS with AD3 to connect to the server.
    if other kind of servers are used, you should develope a custom connector through AD SDK to enable custom properties feature as well as some other handler required by AD SDK
    thanks 

  • I have reinstalled cs4 student edition afther a deactivation by adobe but can not veiw ORF or DNG files in bridge i am runing windows 7

    I have reinstalled cs4 student edition afther a deactivation by adobe but can not veiw ORF or DNG files in bridge i am runing windows 7

    Keep in mind that if your camera is newer than the last released version of Camera Raw (5.7) for Photoshop CS4, Adobe does provide a free solution for compatibility, as Curt has mentioned, through the use of the free DNG Converter application.
    The way that works is this:
    1.  You get your raw images from your new camera into a folder on your computer.
    2.  You run the latest DNG Converter application and choose the folder.
    3.  It converts the entire folder full of images to .DNG files.
    4.  You open a DNG file as you would an older raw file, with your old version of Photoshop.
    While the DNG Converter provides you a way to continue to use your older Photoshop software with a new camera, keep in mind that there are significant improvements in the raw converter in the latest version of Photoshop that may allow you to make better images out of your raw files if you do choose to upgrade Photoshop.

  • Adobe bridge or iphoto with photoshop elements

    Hi I am a new Mac user - have come from windows then linux and finally hoping to be less frustrated on a Mac!!
    I am just learning about all of the features on iphoto, adobe bridge and elements (which i have used before). I need the editing capacity of elements but am unsure of which photo database / organisational system would be best for me to work with it.
    I am not a photographer but have lots of photos and I do a lot of website editing.
    Currently I have several versions of an original photo, eg cropped and rescaled to particular dimensions for a particular site and in other dimensions for another site - some sites have 100kb limits, some pictures need to be specific sizes - eg 555 x 135 pixels but don't have such specific size limitations. i currently organise these by putting crop or web or header file name extensions to the original file and save as.
    I re-use the files a lot so need to keep the saved versions - otherwise I have to re-edit them each time.
    In iphoto it seems that I need to make duplicates of the original to be able to have several versions all side by side to choose from but this will triple or quadruple the hard disk space when i just need to save the versions (much smaller in size) as different files.
    Otherwise I think I need to save it to the desktop and then import it which is time consuming and messy.
    In bridge it seems more flexible for this particular feature but it doesn't seem to have all the features that iphoto has for other projects like making books, calenders, the face recognition etc.
    I know I need to choose between the two and stick with one, but am unsure which would be best.
    Is there a way to save various versions of an original in iphoto easily after it is edited in photoshop and to have some system of naming the files so I can see which version it is as it not always easy to see quality differences in a thumbnail?
    Thank you very much for your advice.

    iPhoto is a Mom and Pop photo organiser and you’re usage is a bit beyond that.
    In iphoto it seems that I need to make duplicates of the original to be able to have several versions all side by side to choose from but this will triple or quadruple the hard disk space when i just need to save the versions (much smaller in size) as different files.
    Yes you will. Aperture has the ability to have different versions from one Master.
    Otherwise I think I need to save it to the desktop and then import it which is time consuming and messy.
    Hard to see what that would save really.
    Is there a way to save various versions of an original in iphoto easily after it is edited in photoshop and to have some system of naming the files so I can see which version it is as it not always easy to see quality differences in a thumbnail?
    No, you can’t have different versions from one Master (see above) but if you duplicate a file you can give the dupe a title.

  • Adobe Bridge Canon .mov Metadata Importing

    I am using Adobe Bridge CS4 on Windows XP SP3 32bit.
    I have recently seen the light and am now going through my years of photos and videos and adding metadata tags and key words. I realise that my image files which consist mostly of Canon RAW files largely look after them self in that all the meta data recorded by the camera is easily read. Things like aperture, lens type etc are easily seen and seen to be accurately captured.
    With my video files however (at the moment I'm concentrating on 5D Mark II video files) I have come to realise that there is no metadata like there is in photos embedded within the file. Bridge just picks up the basic file info which is relatively inaccurate when it comes to creation date etc. After becoming disillusioned with the lack of metadata on my videos I then realised that when I use Zoom Browser (Canon image and video browsing software) that it has a stack of information that Bridge doesn't see. After some investigating I opened some .thm files with note pad and found the metadata stored in those.
    From what I understand these are known as side car files. However as I want one program to rule them all, I want Bridge to have all the metadata. I had planned on manually entering all the data that I could read from Zoom Browser into Bridge but even this won't work because things like Aperture and Creation Date aren't editable fields in Bridge.
    Is there a way I can get Bridge to extract the data from these .thm files?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Curt,
    Thanks for your reply. Yes, White Balance is checked in preferences/metadata. All of the Exposure metadata entries are also checked.
    I forgot to mention that my version of Camera Raw is 4.5 (the latest).
    You know, although White Balance is checked, I cannot find a White Balance text entry on any of the metadata lists (File properties, IPTC core, Camera Data (EXIF), etc.). The only place where I can see the White Balance setting in on the upper left corner of the Metadata tab, under the f-stop value.
    Here is a personal question for you: When you browse your pictures in Adobe Bridge and you select one that was taken with a specific White Balance (not Auto), does your Adobe Bridge display an icon for that particular White Balance setting? I just want to eliminate the possibility that this happening only in my computer.
    Thanks a lot for your time and attention.

  • Adobe bridge vs. iphoto

    i now use adobe bridge (which acts like 'finder') to view/organize photos because i like to organize them my own way.
    can i use iphoto with out "copying" my photos into iphoto?  this seems like a huge waste of space.
    is there a way to not have iphoto organize my pics for me (like the option for music in itunes)?
    a few years ago i tried iphoto and hated the way it organized your actual photos, with huge hierarchical folder trees.  i would prefer to not be program dependent for organization.
    since i have a macbook pro, an ipad and an iphone - and the icloud is coming this fall, i want to be all prepared and organized for the migration.
    is iphoto the way to go?

    is iphoto the way to go?
    Depends...
    Here's the thing: When you say this:
    i now use adobe bridge (which acts like 'finder') to view/organize photos because i like to organize them my own way.
    ...You're not entirely accurate. What you're actually doing is using the Finder to organise the files and then Bridge to view this organisation.
    So, I can understand your frustration when you say
    i tried iphoto and hated the way it organized your actual photos, with huge hierarchical folder trees.
    But it doesn't. Yes it organises files into folders but your files are not your Photos.
    iPhoto is designed for people who want to organise their Photos and to take the chore of file management away. How iPhoto organises the files is of no relevance, you do all your work in the iPhoto Window, organising your photos, a job that is done with no reference to the location of the files on the HD. Iphoto tracks the relationship between the two, of course, but does it in the background and is invisible to you.
    So, you have to make a small leap: That jpeg file is not your Photo, it's just a container that carries your photo. So forget about the container and, instead, focus on the contents: Your photos.
    If you can make that leap you can easily become a contented user of iPhoto. If you can't, then forget about it because you'll never be happy with it.
    How the files are stored on the HD is of no relevance, because after importing you never need to access them again (tho' of course, there are ways too - see below). Anything you need to do with your Photos - edit them, email them, upload them, print them, use in other apps, whatever - but literally, anything you can do either with or via iPhoto. You can edit them in iPhoto. You can edit them in Photoshop. You can email with Apple's Mail, or via a Web Browser and the Gmail service. You can easily get your photos into iPhoto and just as easily get them out again. You can get the Original, unedited file you imported, or the edited version of it. Any metadata that you add in iPhoto can be written to the files on export and so on.
    (Small caveat: Faces can't be written to the file. There's no protocol for sharing faces on any photo application, made by anyone on any system.)
    So, there's no wasted space and yes, you can organise your Photos any way you want.
    i would prefer to not be program dependent for organization.
    But you always are. Right now you're dependent on a mixture of the Finder and Bridge for it. If they are on a computer then some app is managing them
    To your specific question:
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing. The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.
    This is an attractive option for some users at face value, but it contains a significant number of issues that you might want to consider before making the decision to run a Referenced Library
    How to do it:
    iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck the box at 'Copy items to the iPhoto Library'
    Now when you import iPhoto makes an alias in the Library Package that points to the stored file. Note: iPhoto still creates a thumbnail of the image and it makes a Preview of edited photos inside the Library Package.
    Issues?
    1. You are responsible for file management. That's more work:
    You must first move the files from your camera to the storage location before importing.
    If you want to delete files then you must first trash them from iPhoto and then afterwards find them in your storage and trash them.
    Thereafter, you cannot move the files on early versions of iPhoto at all, on iPhoto 08 and later you may move them on the same Volume or Disk. If you move them to a new volume or disk the aliases my break. If they are on an different volume and you move them the aliases will break.
    You cannot rename the files.
    Migrating: moving to a new machine, moving the files to another disk are all a lot more complex.
    2. You gain no extra functionality from running a Referenced Library. Nothing. This is just storage. You still manage the files via iPhoto. You edit them with iPhoto or via iPhoto's External Editor setting, otherwise you're changes will not be available in iPhoto. You don't save  byte of storage space.
    3.  If you have the Library on one volume and the photos on another you if anything changes in the path to a file (Like if you upgrade your machine, move the files on the NAS or on to another one?) then the alias will break, and you'll have to repair it manually. For every photo in the Library. One at a time.
    Why do you want to run a Referenced Library?
    Because my photos won't fit on my HD?
    You can run a Managed library from an external disk. Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    You're worried about accessing the files?
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    You want to edit them in Photoshop and not iPhoto
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Iphoto is not for everyone, and may well not be for you. But it's not the ogre or dragon that it might seem. If you want to organise you Photos  then it's pretty good for the guy with a point and shoot camera. However, if you want to organise files then stick with a file organiser.
    My best advice to you:
    Create an iPhoto Library. Import 250 pics, and explore.

  • Feature Request (again); Adobe Bridge Cache Manager

    In Adobe Bridge, the Cache is still a problem and a huge memory hog. I asked for a good Cache Manager over 3 years ago when it was needed CS4.
    Now in CS6, I am disappointed that the cache system in Bridge has not changed. Why do you have a section in the Adobe Forums that asks for 'Feature Request' and then ignore them?
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2652688#2652688
    "I would personally like a tool within Bridge that allows me to manage and control the Cache in a more personal and effective way. I would like a toggle that would keep '100% previews' in one folder for a selected period of time (1 day to 1 month) before the folder's cache is automatically purged. And another toggle that would give me the option to keep a selected folder's cache permanently intact (such as an Important Portfolio Folder or an Edited Images Folder).
    As a photographer, I take and edit a lot of photos. When I import a photoshoot with 1,500 photos (not uncommom at all) I enjoy having the Bridge Previews at 100%, but for only a limited time. Unfortunately, I forget to purge the individual cache of that folder and the cache builds to a point that makes Adobe Bridge CS4 very slow. I then have to Purge the whole Bridge Cache in order to make Bridge run smooth again.

    A Cache Manager tool that lets me either schedule a cache cleaning on a folder, or keep it permanent, would be a huge help. And I don't think that it is unreasonable for me to ask this of Adobe.
    If you submit a feedback poll where Yammer pointed you, and it gets a couple of hundred (thousand?) users agree you might get Adobe's attention.
    I agree with Yammer that Bridge is a low priority project with Adobe.  Think their target audience is the casual user with a few hundred photos added each year.   Your use pattern is more specialized and you either have to adapt with scripts or move to another product IMO.
    The size of cache takes a lot of people by surprise.  It can grow humongous if you use HQ thumbs and save 100% previews.  One can dump the cache in preferences, but many are reluctant to to this as they think it will delete all their keywords and edits.  In addition, to do a search you have to re-index all your files, which can take a long time.
    If you have "export cache to folders" checked, dumping the cache in preferences only dumps the central cache.  To dump the folder cache you have to visit each folder and click on Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder.  Again, most people do not recognize this.  This technique purges both the central and folder cache for this folder only.
    It the 100% previews are the problem for you it would seem like a simple task for the script people to write one that would delete it after xx days as the 100% previews are held in a specific folder.
    Bridge is not a good digital asset manager.  You are probably in that arena dealing with several hundred thousand images.  Omke uses a DAM as it does some functions better than Bridge, but Bridge is still his main program.  Can't remember the name, but if you read these posts you might have seen it.

  • Error Message: Need to purge Cache in Adobe Bridge CC (on PC)

    I tried purging using Adobe Bridge by going to Edit/Preferences/Cache then purging, but it becomes non responsive.  The error message said the problem files were at Users/(my user name)/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/BridgeCC/Cache.   There are 4 files in there that are taking up 124 GB!  Can I simply delete these files or will it corrupt my regular files?  I tried doing as some other forums suggested and hold the ALT key down when opening Bridge before purging, but no luck.

    Yes, you can delete the cache files manually,  Just be advised that Bridge will become very, very slow until it finishes rebuilding its caches.  Depending on your files, that can take a few minutes or several hours.
    A good way of doing it is at night, so you can do it before going to bed and let Bridge rebuild caches overnight.
    If you can, save the cache files before deleting them to an external drive, so that you'll have them as backup if something goes wrong.

  • Adobe Bridge in Photoshop - How to install Bridge and camera raw? And what is it all about?

    Hi everyone! I am actually in love with this adobe photoshop. I used PSCS2 before, but later on upgraded to CS4. But I feel tired in upgrading to CS5.
    One time, I found a tutorial in youtube about camera raw, and would really want to use it. But I was wondering how to install the camera raw. I believe camera raw is a plugin? so I downloaded the plugin here, installed it in my PS. I downloaded a file Camera Raw.8bi and paste it on my C drive - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS4\Plug-ins\File Formats.
    I now am very confused, how will I open it? I do not have adobe bridge!  After I installed the camera raw, I opened my PS. I clicked the file>then browse in bridge. I had an error, it's "error 2 photoshop11 undefined". Which is what I thought, I might have done something wrong with installing it.
    My question is, do you still need adobe bridge installed in order to use camera raw?
    If yes, how does it work? How am I suppose to open camera raw?
    If no, how am I going to open camera raw without bridge?
    And also, where will I download adobe bridge? I cannot find one here for CS4, only adobe bridge for CS5. I am wondering, is it okay to install adobe bridge CS5 and use it with my PS CS4?
    I badly need help!

    The main difference from FTP as far as I can see is that it allows you to edit documents on a remote web server.
    WebDAV was used by the Apple server - MobileMe but is not generally supported by hosting services.
    Using WebDAV you can mount a directory locally. This was how iDisk worked on your Mac and you could drag files onto it to upload them to the remote directory.
    With WebDAV, a number of users can share a directory which is why its used in local networks but presents security problems when using a remote server.
    If you are into file sharing rather than publishing, Dropbox or its new rival SugarSync are more appropriate.
