Opening Bridge CS4 After Reboot Win7 64

I notice that, in CS4 Win7, when I reboot, Bridge Opens to the Desktop, whereas in CS3 on XP, it opens to the last file before reboot. This is much preferable as there are times that a reboot is called for and having to find that file each time is aggravating. Is there a control for that?
Will CS5 Bridge behave the same as CS4? I sincerely hope not.
Reopening Bridge CS4 does go back to the last file, but not on reboot.
FYI, I deliberately did not upgrade to CS4 for various reasons and I am now evaluating CS4 on Win7 64 so that I might have a baseline for comparison.

Check to see if you have "autoload Bridge on Startup" enabled.  I believe in CS4 they moved that to preferences in Bridge.
It that option is enabled you have to close Bridge first, before shutting down the computer, to revisit the last folder viewed.
IMO this is the default setting of Adobe, but a bad option.  Can cause several other annoyances as well.

  • Can't open bridge cs4 after installing Mac OS Yosemite

  • Unable to open Bridge CS6 after installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 8

    I have been using Bridge CS6 successfully until I installed Photoshop Elements 8 to use with a scanner I bought.  After the installation, when clicking on Bridge CS6 it opens Bridge CS5.   I had a look at some of the forums and tried Ctrl-clicking on Bridge CS6, but it still opens  Bridge CS5.  I have also re-installed Photoshop CS6 in the hope that this will fix it.  Any suggestions as how to get Bridge CS6 going again will be appreciated!

    Thanks for the replies.  I was able to sort this myself after I watched the the following video on how to reset the Adobe preferences:  http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/how-to-reset-photoshop- cs6s-preferences-file/   I did the manual reset where I moved only the preference file to another location e.g. the Desktop.  I restarted my computer.  Closed Bridge CS5 that was running in the background and then clicked on Bridge CS6 and the program opened.  I decided to take a chance to see if this won't fix it and was elated when it worked.  Don't ask my why, but it did the job!

  • Can't dbl left click JPEG icon on desktop -  to then open Bridge CS4

    In CS3 I was able to dbl left click any JPEG icon on my desktop and it would open up Bridge (with view of my Desktop files). Now with CS4 I've set default "opens with" to Bridge CS4 and when I dbl left click on the icon nothing happens?!? Note that PSD files on my desktop have automatically changed to the new CS4 icon - and when I double left click on these PS CS4 opens up. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi bkbl?
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    First check in Applications to see if there is an iTunes icon there?
    If so then just drag the one on your Desktop to the dock, make sure it works and then drag the old one off.

  • Can Photoshop CS3 Be Configured To Open Bridge CS4 On Launch?

    I used PS CS3 for a couple of years and then bought Photoshop Elements 8 last year because I felt it was more modern, included Bridge CS4, was incredibly cheap and would also do everything I wanted.
    I have discovered that PS CS3 has a couple of useful items which are missing in PSE8 so I have just reinstalled it.
    I would like to be able to have it automatically launch the newer CS4 Bridge rather than its own version but it won't.
    Is it possible to do this?
    Alternatively, is it possible to launch CS4 Bridge manually and use it with PS CS3 ?
    I have tried but whenever I double click a photo in Bridge CS4 it also opens PSE8.
    It looks as though the 2 Bridges are inextricably linked with their own versions of Photoshop/Elements.

    Thanks John.
    I suspect that may be the best answer I am likely to get but have not marked the question as answered just in case someone else can add anything.
    Your suggestion does work. I changed JPEG, TIFF and PSD to Photoshop CS3.
    The only (quite major) snag is that if I am using Elements and double-click a photo, it opens Photoshop CS3.
    This wouldn't matter if I was just using PS exclusively but I also want to use PSE at times.
    Looks as though I had better just leave them with their own versions of  Bridge.

  • Problems to open a application after reboot the server

    Hhi there
    after some problems and rebooring the server, i cant open the appliaction anymore. i got the message "unable to connect to server"
    I restarted the services allready and tried to figure out where is the problem in the log files etc. but without success.
    the DB is working without problems. is it possible that the problem is in the firewall or ports? but then I'm wondering why it worked a few minutes before!
    thanks for help!

    I don't recommend increasing this setting unless you know for sure that you are experiencing performance or significant latency issues between the HFM application server and the database server. This setting simply allows for a 2 minute timeout rather than a 60 second timeout when HFM is reading or writing to the database. You would be better off correcting the underlying database or connectivty issue. If this were your issue, you would see some messages in the HsvEventLog.log file regarding HFM's repeated but failed attempts to connect to the database server during a SQL statement.
    Also, this setting can be controlled through the EPM Configurator or Web and Server Cofiguration utility as well as altered directly in the registry as you've shown.

  • How can I get my new mac to open same programs after reboot

    I now have a new imac with 10.6.7
    Is there any way like a pc to have it open the same programs and files as it had open before like windows does with windows updates. I need this mainly for my browsers and tabs and mike outlook 2011 email.

    In Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, not yet released to non-developers, this may be achieved with this new functionality:
    Resume
    Resume in Lion allows users to restore your app exactly where they were prior to logging out or restarting. Apps that were last running launch automatically and all open document windows return to where they were. The system automatically manages apps and conserves resources by closing apps that are not being used.

  • Bridge CS4 Won't Reopen the last folder used after reboot . . .

    When I restart Win XP (32 bit) and open Bridge CS4 it opens to a specific folder (the same one every time) but NOT the last one used. My Workspaces also seem to be forgotten. Is there a way to specify the folder that you want Bridge to open?
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    Are you closing Bridge properly (waiting until all processing has finished) before shutting Windows down?

  • Whilst connected to internet itunes will only open once after rebooting and thereafter it will not open again until reboot. When reboot with internet off itunes will open repeatedly. Help

      This problem has only appeared in the past few days before that I had nio problems with itunes. Firstly I discovered that I could only open Itunes once after reboot - thereafter it would not reopen until I reboot again.  I have spent considerable hours yesterday talking to the Apple help by phone and tried all there suggestions including of course reinstalling itunes amongst other things.  Eventually I thought the problem had been solved when I discovered that I could suddenly open Itunes repeatedly without rebooting.  After a short time I then discovered that the reason it was working agai was that I had rebooted with the internet disconnected and itunes would open repeatedly as normal provide I left the internet disconnected.  When I reconnect to internet the problem resurfaces.

  • Bridge CS4 desaturating thumbnails

    Approximately 1 second or less after opening Bridge CS4 it slightly desaturates the colours of the thumbnails - this is especially noticeable with greens. When any image is then opened in PsCS4 it contimues to display the desaturated colours.
    I have compared this bebaviour with Bridge CS3 and PsCS3 where it does not happen, as far as I can tell, because the amount of desaturation is fairly subtle.
    This all started 2 days ago just after I replaced my el cheapo Philips B190B monitor (which nevertheless displays wonderful colours :1280x1024 pixels and probably a fairly narrow  gamut approximating sRGB) with an NEC 2690WUXi2 (1920x1200 displaying 97.8% of AdobeRGB 1998). There may be no connection but I thought that I should mention it.
    All images were produced in Ps within the sRGB Working Space and were duly tagged with the sRGB profile. The problem persits even though I have switched back to the Philips monitor. Both monitors were calibrated and profiled with the iOneD2 puck and the latest Gretag software.
    Anybody else experienced this, or have any idea what may be happening?

    When Bridge first finds an image, it displays an icon or a thumbnail built in to the image file, if available. If Bridge is set to show high quality thumbnails, it will then go about rendering its own version of the image thumbnail, using whichever program necessary. This usually takes a fraction of a second to a few seconds per image, depending on content.
    Bridge is a colour-managed application. Basically, it understands document colour profiles and display device profiles, and adjusts colour output accordingly. Sometimes this doesn't happen straight away—there may be a delay after thumbnails are updated, or you might need to force the display profile adjustment by minimising and maximising the window. But, if pictures still don't display their colours correctly, there could be one of two reasons: the images were not recorded correctly, or the computer/software is not set up correctly.
    Assuming (!) your pictures have been made correctly, this leaves your computer set-up. If you are displaying JPEG or PSD images, the problem will probably be down to incorrect calibration and profiling of your monitor. Jumping to a wide-gamut monitor can be a bit of a culture shock, and you notice just how many Windows programs are not colour-managed. You need to be sure that your monitor has been properly calibrated and you are using the correct display profile. You also need to be sure that no other software is interfering with this process, like gamma adjusters and display driver utilities.
    Raw images are different, in that there is no such thing as an out-of-the-camera look, only the embedded thumbnail, which is recorded according to the camera's own develop settings (but if you wanted that look, you wouldn't be shooting raw!). Adobe Camera Raw defaults can (and should) be adjusted to your own taste, and this will have a big effect on the appearance of high quality thumbnails in Bridge. If your defaults are poor, your thumbnails will be poor too.
    Desaturated colours are often the result of displaying a wide-gamut source with a small gamut profile, e.g. displaying an Adobe RGB source with an sRGB profile. The opposite can happen with wide-gamut monitors and non-colour-management-aware programs, and you get garish colours on your expensive new monitor.

  • Adobe Bridge CS4 Unknown Operating System Error

    Hello,
    I recently installed Adobe Bridge CS4 to my new iMac 10.7.2.  I used this software on my Macbook Pro 10.7.1 without any trouble.  When I open Bridge CS4 on my iMac, the following message immediately appears: "The operation could not be completed.  An unknown opperating system error has occurred."  When you click okay it closes and the 'Adobe Bridge CS4 Quit Unexpectedly' box pops up.  I've checked for Adobe updates, but didn't find any.  Has anyone experienced this problem, or have any suggestions?  Thank you so much!  I really appreciate any help you can offer me!

  • ***Bridge CS4 will not show a preview of my .CR2 files***

    OK...
    I have been searching the internet for a couple hours with no luck. Hopefully someone out there can help...
    Equipment:
         Cannon Rebel Xti
         Adobe CS4
         ACR Plug-in 5.5 (latest update installed in its CORRECT place!)
    When i open Bridge CS4 all my raw or .CR2 files dont have a preview. Im thinking it could be because the adobe website says that my Rebel Xti minimum ACR plugin is version 3.6? But dont all the later versions support it anyway?? So 5.5 should work right?? Im at a loss if you have any insight at all that would be great!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • LR 2.5 CR 5.5 Saturation Brush Issue - Won't Open in CS4

    Hi,
    I've updated LR and CS4 to Camera Raw 5.5.  I've noticed on images (raw CR2) that when I apply saturation brush changes in LR (e.g -100%) and then try to open that image for editing in CS4 it just doesn't open!
    Anyone else getting this too?
    Thanks.

    Are you in 64 bit mode???
    I experienced the same issue. Random images would not open in CS4 after making local edits (not just SAT brush). Image would open in NIK or other external editors without a problem. Also, if I reimported the same image file, I could edit in CS4 as long as I did not make local edits.
    Finally, the problem was solved when I switched LR back to 32 bit mode.
    I am running CR 5.5 with the latest Snow Lep version. I suspect this is another 64 bit issue with Adobe/Apple that they will hopefully fix soon.
    Regards,

  • From Bridge CS4 to CS5...

    ...can we save our collections from Bridge CS4 to Bridge CS5? Doesn't look like it. And why won't Bridge CS5 let me open BridgeCS4, which i still have on my laptop?

    ...can we save our collections from Bridge CS4 to Bridge CS5? Doesn't look
    like it.
    You can copy the CS4 collections to the CS5 folder, don't know for sure but
    I think it only works when you are on the same system, collections are more
    a kind of aliases from the original files and those aliases would not find
    the originals on an other system.
    The collections are in the user library:
    User/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Bridge CS4/Collections. In here are
    the collection names with the extension '.filelist'.
    You can copy those to the Bridge CS5 folder in the same location and that
    should work.
    And why won't Bridge CS5 let me open BridgeCS4, which i still have on
    my laptop?
    Don't know what you mean by open Bridge CS4 on your laptop whit Bridge CS5.
    While you can have multiple CS version for PS open at the same time you can
    have only one Bridge version active. By default the Bridge CS5 files open in
    PS CS5, using right mouse click menu you can choose from open with: and
    inhere is a list of all applications that are capable to open that file.
