Best file manager with SMB and streaming support? Time Capsule access?

Constantly having to jump through hoops it seems, because of no file manager in iOS. Another simple scenario: have 2 disks connected to my Apple Time Capsule. Can accesss them with Android phones, always in trouble finding a good app on iPhone. Any tips? Wish I could also stream my home videos, etc from these disks. Documents 5 (Readdle) can access them via SMB, but not stream, which is nasty for large videos.
Thank you,
Roman

I was experiencing the same problem when I upgraded to a Time Capsule. To fix the problem remove all personal file sharing port mapping settings. Then make sure that the enable file share, and enable over WAN is on and checked for the TC, then update the TC. While that's updating go into the server app and remove any old file sharing protocols from the TC on the server app. Next add a new custom protocol by hitting the + name it file share and set the port to 140. hit the update button and wait for it to finish. Once that's finish go back to the airport utility and find the newly made file share protocol by selecting it under port mapping for the TC. If you don't have the newly made one in there make a new one your self. Name it the same as you did in the server app and set the public TCP ports to 140 and the private TCP ports to 548, make sure the private IP address is set to the same as your server in the reserve. Update the time capsule and you should be able to access both by putting in the appropriate afp://www.yourserver.com:140 for the server and afp://www.yourserver.com:548 for the TC. Have fun, lion server can be a little fussy!

I have a Mac computer and am trying to use a Photoshop CS4 program, but after accessing my desktop files through Adobe Bridge and clicking twice on any of the pictures to get into Photoshop, instead of entering photoshop, I get on the lefthand side an enlarged version of the picture with red, yellow and green buttons on top. Any suggestions on what is wrong, or what can be corrected ?

And there is the problem. Your pictures are opening up in Mac's own Preview app.
Do you want all your jpegs to open in Photoshop, or only when you are in Bridge?
Selecting a program to open a certain file is called: File Type Association.
You can choose this at the MacOS level or the Bridge level.
Here's how to do both:
Either MacOS or Bridge has the wrong app associated with the jpeg. Let's start with MacOS
Close Bridge and Preview. Select one of your jpegs, and press Cmd i, That will bring up the file info window.
Go down to the "Open with" section of File Info.
Choose Photoshop CS4 and click on the Change All... button to apply this choice to every jpeg on your Mac.
Then open Bridge and see if double-clicking opens it in Photoshop.
Now that means all jpegs on your Mac will open in Photoshop. Maybe you don't want that.
You can set your jpegs to open in Preview when Bridge is closed.
When you open Bridge, there is Preferences > File Type Associations where you can direct Bridge to open the jpegs in Photoshop when you are viewing in Bridge.

I am using a new laptop with bridge and when i try to edit it tells me that i need to first launch a qualifying product?

When i try to edit with a new version of Bridge on a new laptop i get an error message that i need to first launch a qualifying product. does anyone know what this means?

close bridge>open a qualifying product (like photoshop)>open bridge from photoshop (file>browse in bridge).
retry opening bridge.

File Browser with multi select....

Is it possible to have a file browser with multi- select??? I have several (possibly dozens) of files in a directory that I'd like to up load using a file browser style item, but be able to select several at a time to up load rather that doing them on at a time. Is this possible???

Different idea, look at this thread, where you could just have multiple file upload capacity in a form.. The multi-select with browser I believe is NOT possible with current version of APEX.

Trouble with bridge and CS3

I had a problem with bridge and now it says to repair the problem i have to reactivate my software. When I go to do that it say I have to take it off another computer before I activate it. But it is not nor has it ever been on another computer. Can anyone help me?

This does not make sense. Did you get the reset window with the 3 options?

I have CC with all the latest versions of photoshop, lightroom, bridge when I'm in PS and click file browse in bridge ... bridge doesn't open instead it brings me to the CC desktop screen

Bridge not opening when doing a browse in bridge from Photoshop cc 2014.. Bridge opens fine on its own..

Again, thanks for the quick answer but in searching around the web I found someone respond that it looked like a issue that would go away with an uninstall and reinstall of PS CC 2014. I did that and rebooted my PC and the round trip now works. I am guessing that the problem was caused when the new version was added without the 2 earlier versions being removed. When I remeoved the older 2 versions, I expect the link was scrambled. Now all is ok.

Workflow issue with Bridge and everything else

Short and sweet. Well, not really.
I use windows - so as a result, for some reason unknown to man (after a decade of waiting), I still cannot see "previews" of most, if not all of any adobe software in the windows dialogue boxes.
think PDF's and the registry hacks we have to do to "enable" previews. But on a mac I can?
So I have to use bridge - a lot.
Now when I have a linked image in illustrator (or whatever) and choose "reveal in bridge" it will hunt and drill down through a multitude of folders and display the image in it's native folder - which I can then open in photoshop for instance - edit it - and Illustrator will detect the change and update. Awesome.
But aside from running a script to send a batch job to a program, it really doesn't "do" anything else that one would expect a "bridge" to do;
     I cannot create a "project" portfolio that would track a client project and all it's related documents.
     Or collaborate with a team.
     I cannot have non destructive edits of a document (such as using an instance of a file like lightroom does) - or "send copy to photoshop" and have Bridge stack the results.
     I cannot combine and tag collections of documents (make a database of stuff).
     I cannot ask Bridge to tell me which documents have placed documents, or (vice versa) which documents are placed into other documents - that would be so cool.
          imagine being able to select a jpeg or psd file and have the option to "Find documents using this file"
          or looking at a "project" and having a list of all first level documents with all their subsequent "placed content" listed all drop down expandable
So my beef today is that I finally spent an hour messing about thinking I had something "wrong" and went through Bridge CS6 with a fine tooth comb trying to find out if anything had changed.
and nope - it still doesn't behave as one would think it would.
Currently, I have some documents that require monthly changes to images, which for the most part came from one photo shoot, and all have essentially the same perspective, appearance, lighting and shading, but all different products and I have a folder of "preformatted images". So monthly I really only need to update the images, and a bit of text. Being posters, InDesign whines a bit for vector art manipulation, so I stick to Illustrator for this job.
But in Illustrator, I cannot choose another image to replace my linked image - without either;
     a: (reveal in bridge), select new replacement image - place as a new image, which then needs to be manipulated as the "old" image was, "remaking" all the adjustments, and then finally deleting the original linked image.
     b: (reveal in bridge) keep bridge open on the image I need (and it's name), go back to illustrator to open the "relink" windows dialogue and "blindly" browse till I find the image I want as shown in bridge.
     c: simply relink and browse blindly to find a file you can't see a preview of and guess, or drag and drop, or all the other non practical ways to replace the image.
Option B gives the desired end result where the image I have in a clipping mask, buried in a document in a certain way, with certain effects, is simply replaced without impacting anything else.
     But this takes quite some time when there are a lot of images.
So Bridge and its promised workflow functionality still isn't living up to it's purpose exactly.
Bridge isn't bridging.
With indesign, it's the same issue - you can't "relink" by revealing in bridge, choosing a "replacement" image and "update"
Maybe a "relink with Bridge" choice in the Links menu?
and in bridge, since Illustrator triggered the request, a button appears to "Replace" - once you finish browsing and highlighting the replacement image you need, just click it and it's done.
So two issues -
Why can't previews of adobe files be shown in windows explorer (still)?
     if they did, I'd really have no use for Bridge.
Why isn't bridge actually communicating with the apps connecting to it?
- and yes, I understand that I cannot ask bridge to go find a placed file and replace it with "this" file, but when illustrator "asks" for "this", bridge should be able to "respond" and give "that" since the app initiated the request.
Bridge should be a workflow tool as advertised - it should literally be able to be a proper workflow hub for all things adobe (and be able to catalogue and track all design file type previews - corel files, cad, 3d, etc)... but as it stands it's just a glorified windows explorer without workflow options.
Bridge hasn't been altered in years, and it's still lingering around - I think - so that we can simply see thumbnails, rather than just allowing each adobe program to make "previews" windows needs.
I can change metadata in windows, I can use freeware to change it extensively.
So aside from the "open in" options and the ability to browse all adobe file types, what's the point?

I couldn't read all through your post as I am jetting out of here.
Buy this:
http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/codecs/
and install it. It's relatively cheap. Screen shot is from Windows Explorer.
Handles ID, PSD, etc., files as well. Though the preview uses greeked text for the most part for the ID files.
Take care, Mike

CS4 apps are VERY slow to open Windows file browser with File Open or File Save As commands

We are running CS4 on Windows 7 with all available updates installed. Photoshop and the other CS4 applications are VERY slow to open a Windows file browsing window to select files when File Open or File Save As menu options are run -- it can take as long as a minute or two for the window to open. Once the window opens and a file is selected, then opening or saving the file is very quick. The location of the default directory, whether it is on a local drive or a network drive, makes no difference. Any suggestions as to what the problem might be?

The link that I posted earlier is off. Read this one
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2501584. I discovered in my network that the MS Office File Validation Patch made excel crawl when opening over the network though nothing else changed. At the time I was opening Excel on Office 2003.
You can manually turn this off by editing the registry and tunring it off. Going forward I skipped the patch to keep my sanity. Not sure if this is the same as your issue, but the support article will go into detail how to either have Fix it
clear the issue or change the proper registry keys.

CS3 with Bridge and DNG converter on new MacBook Pro and update recognition

I have CS 3 with Bridge. I installed it on my MAC desktop in 2008 and had to update the DNG converter to recognize my Nikon D700 raw files. I have a new MAC Book Pro and installed the software on it but it does not recognize the raw files, I downloaded the updated DNG converter but unlike the desktop it did not automatically update as I recalled it did in 2008. On the DNG Converter window the #1 selection is select image to convert, #2 Select location to save conver timages and #3 select name for converted images. Not sure what to do here, it all most leads me to believe i need to do this each time I download raw images?
Any step by step help is appreciated!

Photo file issues with iWeb and Aperture....also too much duplicating!!

A little background, before I get into my iWeb issue.....
Years ago I tried iPhoto, but I didn't like how it duplicated all my photo files and I wasn't very fond of the file structure it created. Years later (last month) I got Aperture. Aperture (still has a long way to go) also duplicates all your files and places them in their own file structure. If I can get along with Aperture (and if it will get along with my other programs), I won't mind putting all my files into the file structure it creates. But for now, I still have my original files in the original file structure I have had for many years as a back up.
On to my issue with iWeb and Aperture....
To add photos to iWeb, you can either go into the iWeb media center or you can drag and drop photos from other locations.
1st: iWeb media center
To get my photos into the media center, I would have to load them into iPhoto (iP 6 does allow you to keep your original file structure, but it still creates .jpg files, which fills up your hard-drive. More duplicates I don't need or want). So that is out for me. iP6 will let you view and use your Raw files.
Another way is to drag and drop your file structure directly into the media center window. I don't think this duplicates any files (at least I haven't been able to find any), but it takes an awfully long time to thumbnail all your photos (several hours and still waiting for 22K + files). Also, it won't show any Raw files. Again, out for me.
Aperture won't let you drag and drop its library into the media center at all. So if I was to move all my files into the Aperture Library, I wouldn't be able to access them for iWeb at all.....Out for me.
2nd: Drag and Drop
I was able to drag and drop Raw files directly into iWeb from C1 Pro, Adobe Bridge and Adobe Lightroom.
As I said before, I am trying to move over to Aperture. However, Aperture won't let me drag and drop photos. What is the deal here??? These are both Apple programs and they won't play nice with each other. Very annoying.
Anyway, I put a link below to my iWeb test webpage I made. All the photos were Raw files that I did a drag and drop from C1 Pro, Adobe Bridge and Lightroom. There were no problems with the publishing.
http://web.mac.com/phil_navarro/iWeb/Site%202/Drag%20and%20Drop%20test.html
So, does anyone know if they can get photos from Aperture to work?? Thanks for any responses.

Jedi,
Perhaps you are right.
I am not a web developer and I will never be. I don't feel like spending countless hours learning how to use Dreamweaver or some other Pro web app. iWeb looked like a way to start making websites of my photos for my friends and family (much easier and better than Home Page on .Mac). All I was asking was for a way to drag and drop my photos (especially Raw files) with Aperture. Which I can do with Lightroom, Adobe Bridge and C1 Pro, and without using iPhoto.
I am not a Pro photographer either, but I purchased Aperture based on what was advertised on the Apple website. From that ad, Aperture fit my photo needs almost to a tee. I am looking to adjust Raw files, Crop, Archive and keep my use of Hard Disk space down to a minimum. I can use Photoshop for the other 5% of things I do. However, Aperture has some issues (if you own it, then you already know. If you don't, you can read the Aperture Forum) This is one of the reasons I never went to iPhoto for archiving. I didn't like the way it duplicated all my files, taking up more disk space and its file structure. So even though Aperture won't play nice with other programs, I was surprised that it wouldn't play nice with any Apple programs.
After reading your post and based on what you are saying, everyone either needs to have/learn/use Pro apps only or have/learn/use iApps only. Don't Cross the Streams!!
I guess that means Apple will need to fix DVD Studio Pro. It uses photos that are in your iPhoto library and music from iTunes (iApps in a Pro app??....for shame...."it was never intended"). Also, DVD SP won't read the Aperture library. Does that mean there are 3 platforms? Pro, iApp and Mediocre??
Now I have 2 questions:
1. Can someone please tell me which apps are Pro and iApp, or if there is Mediocre? I don't want to mix them up and "Cross the Streams".
2. Again....is there anyway to use Aperture with iWeb?
TIA,
Narvon

Problems with Bridge and FrameMaker

We are using FrameMaker 9.0.3 and Creative Suite CS4 on Windows XP, with 3 GB of RAM and 150 GB hard drive space. One of us typically runs FrameMaker and Bridge CS4 simultaneously, usually with Illustrator and maybe also Photoshop open at the same time. A few weeks ago, he began having problems. Typically he (1) opens FrameMaker, (2) opens a .fm file located on a network drive, (3) opens Adobe Bridge, then (4) selects a folder located on the network drive in Bridge. At some point, he gets an error (apparently a Windows error) that there are insufficient resources. Sometimes he is able to save his work and sometimes not, but he always has to reboot to be able to work again. He typically reboots 4 or 5 times a day.
Any suggestions as to why this might happen?
Thanks in advance,
Van

Read thruogh this rather lengthy post about "low on resources". Perhaps something in here will help faster than starting from scratch on a new post.

Plug in Issue with Bridge and Photoshop

When attempting to access Bridge in Photoshop (CS5 Extended) I received the following message: "Could not complete the browse in Bridge command because Photoshop was unable to find the JavaScript Plug-in".

How does metadata work with Bridge and Premiere?

We are trying to figure out how to start using metadata with bridge. But it doesnt seem to work. I can load an avi file into premiere and change the metadata fields for description or scene or log or whatever, when i load it into premiere i see that data, when i look at it in bridge i don't see any of the metadata.
I can go into bridge and edit the metadata for a file. and when i look at it in bridge it is always there. but looking at that same file in premiere there is no metadata there.
we have 8 premiere workstations on a fibrechannel network solution we edit with. we want to have about 5TB of stock video clips available with metadata that every machine can search and use in projects.

I know nothing about Premiere, but perhaps they use different methods to store data. With Bridge it puts the metadata on the file. With some programs like PS Elements it puts the metadata in a table. With PSE one can select "write metadata to file" and solve problem. Check with Premiere to see how data is stored.
If you are entering keywords a good check is to look with Windows Explorer and see it there are any "tags" listed after entering it in Premiere. WE and Bridge read the same.
