PS Bridge not opening my photos !!!

Two days ago I ran PS CC and used bridge to browse and open photos in camera raw. Now all of a sudden, when I try to open a raw file in Bridge I get the message "Bridge's parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature."  WTHell !!!  Come on Adobe. You guys are brighter than this. This should never happen !  And the fact is that I've been a cloud member for over a year and all payments are current !!!!

Something might have glitched. Open Photoshop, Illustrator or even InDesign. Whatever apps you already have installed. Sign in if need be.

  • I can not open CR2-photos (Canon)

    Hello,
    I can not open CR2 photos (Canon). :-(
    Both Bridge and Photoshop CS3. Although I have installed the plug-in Camera Raw 4.6.
    Lightroom 4.3 runs everything fine.
    What should I do?
    Thanks for your help!!!
    Hallo,
    Ich kann keine CR2-Fotos öffnen. :-(
    Sowohl in Bridge als auch Photoshop CS3. Obwohl ich das PlugIn Camera RAW 4.6 installiert habe.
    Lightroom4.3 läuft alles prima.
    Was muss ich noch tun?

    May I thought CS3 Camera Raw to version 4.6 supports only?
    Have I said differently?
    If you have decided to stick with an outdated version of Photoshop you have to accept that support for newer cameras will elude your similarily dated version of Camera Raw.
    But the free current DNG Converter supports the same cameras as the most recent version of Camera Raw.
    In any case you may want to post on the proper Forum.

  • I have a G5 mac using ver 10.4.11 and a newer mac using ver 10.8.4 these are networked. using the new mac i looked up my my photo on the old mac. It then said you need to upgrade your library which it did. Now the old mac can not open the photos

    I have a G5 mac using ver 10.4.11 and a newer mac using ver 10.8.4 these are networked. using the new mac i looked up my my photo on the old mac. It then said you need to upgrade your library which it did. Now the old mac can not open the photos and say that I need to upgrade my I photo to a newer version. The old mac has no more support from apple in software update so I am not sure where I should go from here. can I use new soft ware with the old mac

    The other part of the upgrade message was a warning that once you upgraded you would no longer be able to open the library with the old version which is exaclty what you did and what happened when you choose to continue
    The iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library. Cancel or upgrade.
    So now your choices are to not use iPhoto with the previous version using it onky with the newer version, restore your backup from before you did this upgrade or purchase iPhoto Library Manager and use it to rebuild the library using the older version of iPhoto (instructions are on their web site) thereby downgrading it (without projects)

  • I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. Plug-in camera raw is missing

    I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. a plug-in camera raw  xx is missing. Advice to update does not work. There is no plug-in in the map photoshop plug-ins.

    This is expected. CS4 will never be able to open files from a current version of LR and a modern camera.

  • Can not open Events photos in iPhoto 9.5.1

    can not open Events photos in iPhoto 9.5.1

    We need detaoils
    What does show for the ones that do not have the picture?
    Is is an ! - if do
    This indicates a disconnect between the Thumbnail and the original
    this can be caused by two things
    1 - User action deleting items from inside the iPhoto  library - can be directly - can be from the All images list (never delete from there) - can be from running cleanup software like MacKeeer, CleanMac2  or other dangerous, defective software that improperly deletes or changes things in the iPhoto library - if you have done any of these things you must restore your backup from before you did them and damaged your iPhoto library - and I recommend getting rid of any "clean up software" ASAP (although being essentially MalWear it is not easy)
    2 - corruption of the iPhoto library - If it is not #1 then Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - repair permissions and then rebuild your database

  • Iphoto on my used mac mini will not open my photos from my new macbook air, it says to update software but there arent any available.. please help

    iphoto on my used mac mini will not open my photos from my new macbook air,  it says something about updating the software, but i checked and there arent any updates available... please help

    Sorry for the second post..
    I currently do not have an older version of iPhoto to test this on, but you might also try coping the Originals from the iPhoto Library of iPhoto 11.
    To do that;
    1. Right (control) click on the iPhoto Library in the Picture Folder on the MacBook Air
    2. Select Show Package Content.
    3. Click on the Originals Folder
    4. Navigate to the disired Event or photos and copy those images to your Flash or External Drive, then copy those to the older version of iPhoto.
    Beware do not move, add or delete anything in the iPhoto Library, Apple has intensionally hidden it in later versions to prevent people from messing things up.

  • I am using Mac after recent download I can not open a photo without it crashing

    Can not open a photo with out it crashing, after  a new update with the new Mac OS X system

    Did you trash the prefs after updating to Yosemite? It is usually necessary.
    Quit Elements.
    Launch Finder and find the user Library by clicking the Go menu whilst holding down the Optn (alt) key (n.b. the library is hidden until you press the optn key) and inside the Library folder select the preferences folder. Then trash the following folder/files:
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Paths
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Settings

  • When I Open Iphoto it tells me that it can not open current photo library using this version of iphoto.  Any help on what I can do to fix this without loosing all my previous photos?

    For some reason I tried to open Iphoto and it keeps giving me an error message that It can not open my current photo library. 
    It says "You can't open your current photo library using this version of Iphoto. 
    You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of Iphoto. Do you want to quit and use the latest version of Iphoto, or do you want
    to create a new photo library?"
    I tried updating the software and didn't do nothing for me. 
    Anyone have a solution to this problem, I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    Ok, here is what I would do for that situation. I would back up all your photos on a memory stick, then create a new photo library and re-upload all the photos to the new library. If iphoto wont let you even copy your photos, you should just schedule an appointment at the genius bar. This has never happened to me, but if it did this is what I would be attempting.

  • I can not open i photo. it needs a library that i can use to import photos but i created already books, slide shows and had over 6.000 pictures in the librarybut i can

    i photo does not open. It says i photo needs a photo library but I had more that 6.000 pictures in my library. I created already books and slide shows. it seems everthing is gone.
    I get as reply
    - select a library from list -- but no list
    or
    - find another library
    or
    - create a new one and import photos later
    any chance te recuperate  or  find all I had in i photo

    You can try and recover deleted files from your Mac with an app like File Salvage
    To create a new Library:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'.By default it goes in your Pictures Folder.
    To save book etc that you have created you need to back up your Library.
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    Also, please don't type in block capitals. They are hard to read and on the forum it looks like you'e shouting at everybody.

  • C.C Bridge not opening.

    Hi Folks.
    I purchased and downloaded Creative Cloud and several other programmes,  The download seemed to work but Bridge will not open. It seemes to be listed in the Adobe files but will not open.  When I did eventially get bridge to open it was the Cs5 version not CC. How can I solve the problem?
    Yours.
    Ken Arnold

    Can you try resetting the preferences of Bridge.
    Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears.
    Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.
