Problem Adobe Bridge 64 bit or 32 bit and Wacom Intuos tablets on Win 7 or 8

I've recently started using the Wacom Intuos 5 tablet both at work and at home. I've enjoyed the experience for the most part, except for this one problem with Adobe Bridge. I use the 64 bit version, but even in 32 bit the problem was apparent. This problem appears in both Windows 7 and Windows 8.
The Problem
After launching Bridge, attempting to select an image seems to lock the application. You cannot select, double click, anything. If you enable your mouse, the cursor becomes active and acts as if you had held down the mouse button and were dragging over objects.
The Solution
After much searching I finally came across this link on Wacom's support site. It seems that if you have Windows Sticky Notes open, as I did on both machines, the Wacom tablet doesn't work as it should. I didn't realize that Sticky Notes allowed for pen input on the notes, which I discovered attempting to edit text on them.
Shutting down Sticky Notes does indeed fix the Wacom issue. The real question is why Bridge cares if Sticky Notes is open.

I'm having the same exact issue you've described here except that I don't use windows sticky notes
Anyone know if there are other applications that cause a similar issue?
Thanks.

Wacom Intuos Tablet and Pen not working on new iMac with OSX 10.9.4

Hi there, I've been using an A3 Wacom Intuos tablet and pen for many years now on a 2006 iMac for my illustration work, but I cannot get them to appear or work on my new iMac with OSX 10.9.4. I think they are the original Wacom Intuos tablet and pen. Does anyone know if they are just out of date now and aren't supported on the new OSX 10.9.4? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I need to work and it's frustrating!
Many thanks,
Steve

I have done as you suggested; I uninstalled PSE 11 and set my wife's account up as admin and reinstalled from there. Still have the same problem with my wife's account, but when I went to mine it is working correctly. Any ideas on why that would be? I'm sure it should work on both accounts. I have 2 accounts on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and it works on both.
Thanks for your help; at least it's working on my account so that's a great improvement.

Problem: Adobe Bridge CC has stopped working

I run a Windows computer with Windows 8 64bits OS. When I try to start Adobe Bridge CC I get a message "Adobe Bridge CC has stopped working". I Tried to delete preferences (started with ctrl-key) but no cigar. Then I uninstalled Adobe Bridge and reinstalled it, but still no cigar. The same message occurs whenever I try to open a folder with more than a few pictures in it. My only option is "Close program". Someone has a solution?

I got the reset window but only two options was available (the reset workspace was greyed out). My machine has 16GB ram. The "funny" thing is that suddenly the problem disappeared. I installed Bridge CS6 to circumvent, but one day I started CC again and everything was ok.

Adobe Bridge Buttons in Dreamweaver, Flash, and Fireworks?

Hello,
Adobe says that the button to connect to Adobe bridge is in
every CS3 application. I can find it in Photoshop, Illustrator, and
even Contribute, a former Macromedia project, but none of the other
Macromedia projects (Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks) have one. Am I
missing it, or is this a glitch?
Thanks,
Dylan

Go to Edit > Prefs > Enable Version Cue. Once you do
that look in the lower left corner of the flash
application - you should see "Open" with an arrow. Clicking
on it will popup "Reveal in Bridge" button.

Adobe Draw and Wacom Intuos Creative 2

Adobe Draw never support the Wacom Intuos 2 Creative? I would like an official response, as the Wacom has dumped blame the software house.
Thank you in advance, good day.

The latest versions of Adobe Line and Adobe Sketch support Wacom. It will soon be added to Adobe Draw as well. Unfortunately, I can't give you a timeline or schedule more specific than that.
Hope that helps,

Problems with Photoshop or Wacom Intuos Tablet

My new Wacom Intuos Pen and Touch tablet came today with a load of problems.
In Photoshop, the brush size is way bigger than the painted area and I have tried everything including adjusting cursor size and hardness but nothing has worked so far. I have also tried adjusting the sensitivity of the pen but it does not change anything.
In Photoshop, lines are very jagged and does not draw smoothly. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the recent drivers and old drivers but does not work.
If anyone could help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Here is a screenshot showing these problems: http://imgur.com/VY9UYos (Although the outline of the brush is not showing, the painted area is WAY smaller than the size of the brush.)

I think you have in Shape Dynamics the pen pressure set to Size Jitter. This causes the brush stroke to be bigger/smaller depending on the pressure.

Adobe Bridge CS3 2.1 Update and Vista 64 bit

I updated my CS3 applications using the Adobe Updater.
Now when I launch Bridge (either standalone or through one of the other applications in the suite) Windows immediatly reports that Bridge "has stopped working", closes the application and says it is checking for a solution. Needless to say no solution is found.
Bridge was working fine in Vista 64bit before I used the Adobe Updater.
Anyone else seen this?

Bridge CS3 crashing on E6600 DUO Core w/4gig ram two terabytes of drives. Vista Ultimate 64
I too have been encountering the mysterious Bridge crashes .."Stopped working.." .."insufficient disk space to complete."..
and .."insufficient memory .." when processing images in the RAW Plugin. Thiss has been going on for weeks and has been quite frustrating. And yes..this started after using the Adobe Updater ..
Note one line of the Bridge Error report lists:
Fault Module Name: QuickTimeStreamingAuthoring.qtx
I don't know what Quick Time has to do with Bridge ..but..
I went to Apple & got the latest Quicktime for Vista 64..and ALL the crashing problems have ceased! I have even turned back on "MULTI-PROCESSOR" Support. Running smoothly...
So what does Quicktime have to do with bridge image processing?
Please & thanks

Adobe Bridge CC with OSX Yosemite - and i cant open RAW Files in Camera Raw. Does anybody have the same Problem?

If i try to open any File with Camera Raw exactly nothing happens.

What specific, exact version of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in?
What specific, exact versions of Bridge and of Yosemite?

if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

Adobe Bridge is really bogging down and PS CS5 will not open at all (runtime problem), ideas

Also many thanks to Adobe for not supporting their software.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Problem installing itunes 11.1.5.5 and three previous versions on Win 8.1 to no avail

Prior to attempting to reinstall the last 3 updates of the 64 bit version of itunes I have killed the temp folder, unistalled all of itunes and quicktime includind deleting the folders. I have rebooted, downloaded the newest version, ran the installation as Administrator and installed the software only to get a CoreAudioToolbox.dll missing error with a second reinstall itunes error 126. Then I came across a "fix" that if one found a copy of CoreAudioToolbox on the net and put this with the itunes.exe it would run. So I tried that. (I may have these slightly out of order sorry) and continued this process of adding the missing dll to the itunes folder. At this point it seems the itunes.exe cannot find the following CoreAudioToolbox.dll, CFNetwork.dll, CoreFoundation.dll, CoreGraphics.dll, CoreMedia.dll, QuartzCore.dll, WebKit.dll, libdispatch.dll, libicuin.dll and JavaCoreScript.dll. Now I do not know if these dlls are 32 bit or 64bit when getting them off the net so that is another area where things could go bad but at least I can see a pattern of numerous dlls that itunes.exe can't find. Normally these dlls would be located in the sys folder i believe so something in the installation has misdirected the exe file so it cannot find the proper dlls or it has corrupted a whole string of dlls listed above which seems unlikely. Can someone help me get my itunes running. Its been down several months now and my wife and I both use itunes for our iPhones and iPad so a catastrophic failure of the software is fatal at many levels. Thanks

Try Andrei Cerbu's post here or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.

Browse in Adobe Bridge CS6 - default to 64-bit version

I have Adobe Bridge CS6 32-bit and 64-bit installed. I prefer to use the 64-bit version, but whenever I right-click a folder in Windows Explorer and choose 'Browse in Adobe Bridge CS6', the 32-bit version always opens. How can I make this default to the 64-bit version? There doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall the 32-bit version.

Edit your System Registry on:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Bridge
Change the path that is pointing at 32bit version and set it to point at the location of 64bit version:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS6 (64 Bit)\Bridge.exe "%L"

Keywords problem using Adobe Bridge CS5

Hi,
I've a great many photos in numerous folders all found under one master folder.
Don't know if this is a flaw in the program or a fault on my part, but what I'm trying to do is keep my keyword list as I continue to add to it...regardless of when I happen to come back to Bridge...'and regardless of what photo I select.
Problem is, when I close out of Bridge and come back to a particular image, Bridge will show me only a portion of all the keywords I'd entered previously. My workaround involves browsing around to older images which happen to have all the keywords listed. (not meaning that all those keywords are applied to that photo, BUT, they're available). After doing so, the full list of keywords I've added in the past will now be available to any other image I select thereafter.
I hope I explained that correctly.
I always figured Adobe Bridge to be pretty intuitive and self explanatory but just now had a look at the CS5 Manual just to be sure I wasn't overlooking something. I couldn't find a solution.
Would appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks in advance.

Glad the problem is clear now
When I say at their disposal, I mean keywords from which to be applied to each file. When you create a brand new file, from where would I get the keywords? I certainly don't expect to enter each one individually over and over again for every file. At their disposal in my book would mean: available as a keyword to be applied to the image.
In the Bridge book this would mean they should be present in the keyword list that shows in the keyword panel. Like Curt stated the keywords that are already saved to a file but are not persistent to the list show in italic, usually at the bottom of the list under 'other keywords'.
When you need to save keywords to files (whether brand new or old) you only have to select the files you want to have those certain keywords and put a checkmark in front of the keyword from the keyword panel (persistent or italic both work but for the italic to show you have to have files with those keywords in the folder as you have found out yourself by now) and let bridge finish its task to save the data to the files.
You can create your own keyword list on the go when working and use the menu or right mouse menu in the keyword panel to create a new keyword or nested sub keyword. If you have created this word it will stay present in this list (persistent) but you can also create or edit your list in a simple text editor. A main keyword starts at the beginning of the line, hit return for a new line and 1 x tab to create a sub keyword to nest in the parent. Further nesting in done by return and an extra tab for each nested keyword.
You can also export the current keyword list using the little menu icon top right to the keyword panel and choose export. Save it with a proper name and open this file in a text editor to get the idea of tabs and lines.
Sadly enough I don't know a way to export non persistent keywords (italic) but maybe the scripting has a solution for you, if you want to make it persistent to the list you have to do so one by one.
If you have created your own keyword tree it is also wise to every now and then back it up using the export function. You can also import a new list either to add to your existing words or to clear current and use only the new one.
btw, going back to what you mentioned originally in as far as bridge needing time to apply a keyword and finish its task...that doesn't even exist on my end. I'm running off 16 gigs of memory and have allotted a huge number for bridge to work with.
But still, multitasking is not a Bridge gem, if you start assigning keywords from the keywords panel after a few seconds the arrow starts rotating and you have to wait for it being finished, no matter what specs you have (and I use 32 GB RAM on a 12 core processor using SSD…) as soon as the first task starts the keywords that are getting applied need time to save to the files. If you start a new job before it is finished only half of the keywords will be saved.
