Recurring problem with Bridge CS6 64-bit

This happens every time I close Bridge to optimize my resources when I'm working in After Effects. I close out of Bridge - work for a while in After Effects, then need to import a new graphic into the project. When I try to start Bridge, nothing happens. So...I go to the task manager (Win Vista Business 64-bit), and guess what's still running there? bridge.exe - so I close it down in the task manager, then it starts up just fine.

Never done it myself, but isn't there a Mac-style never-close-Bridge thingamy in Preferences (minimise to tray, or Start Bridge at Logon)? I think, when it's ticked, Bridge never closes, it minimised instead.
In Bridge preferences is a setting you can check so that Bridge starts when your computer starts (in other words login to your user account)
When you check this setting in Bridge on a Mac it starts in the background when you start the computer (the application is running but hidden from the desktop)
Hence I always use the option via the system preferences itself because I don't want it to be hidden but immediately active when I start working
However Bridge has it's own mind (sadly enough not limited to this setting only) and every now and then decides to either start hiding itself or even deselect the auto start option totally. To my memory this problem is as old as it first appeared (in CS3?)
I have learned to live with this, although under protest...
Can't think of a reason this setting should not be able in Windows (for Mac it is in the advanced preferences tab 'start bridge at login')
And on a Mac we have three little button icons on a document or open window. A red one to close it, a yellow one to minimize it to the dock and a green one to fit the screen.
Neither of them quits the application itself
That aside I seem to remember other threads about same issue with closing windows and not quitting the application for Windows also.

Problem with Bridge CS6 and MCXRedirector (OS X 10.9.5)

Good afternoon all, I have a very irritating issue with Bridge CS6 that I've pretty much given up on now, so I'm wondering if anyone out there can help me before I do.
The issue lies with Bridge CS6 running in a networked Mac environment, first, a little background: I am using OS X Server's Workgroup Manager facility for various restrictions and folder redirection. Our users had a nasty bug a little while ago that caused saved Photoshop files to end up in ~/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems instead of the actual network home location they selected to save in. While this was happening, a single entry was being used in the MCXRedirectory preference to redirect the entire of ~/Library/Caches/
This was resolved by changing that preference and branching it out a little more, so now the folders subject to redirection are as follows:
~/Library/Caches/Adobe
~/Library/Caches/Adobe Camera Raw
~/Library/Caches/Meta
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Doing this fixed the saving issue with Photoshop, but has in turn broken Bridge. When launched, Bridge immediately fails with the error "Adobe Bridge CS6 quit unexpectedly" and gives the three options to ignore, report or reopen.
Taking away the ~/Library/Caches/Adobe redirection allows Bridge to work as normal again, but then I'm back to square one with Photoshop files saving in TemporaryItems again.
Does anyone have any advice to remedy this annoying problem please?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Bridge version is 5.0.2.4

Sorry, did not solve the problem. The info given did not bear much relation to what I could see in the print drop down box. I have been through all settings I can access and every thing appears normal. The print preview in the print box appears normal and shows colour, but this does not translate to the actual print.
When printing a docuement of 3 pages or more using double sided the result is the first docuement page on one side of a sheet and the last page on the other side, but upside down, despite orientation set to long edge binding. All other pages between first and last are ignored.
When printing docuements originating from printer software such as Print Quality Diagnostic and Make The Most Of Your Printer, the printer performs correctly with good quality printing and colour.
I assume that the Mac update to 10.9.5 has corrupted something but I am not knowkedgeable enough to understand what. Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Have you had problems with Bridge CS6 after CR 8.4 installed?

Adobe Bridge CS6 running on Mac OS X 10.7.5 crashed several times while sorting images . After installing Camera Raw 8.4, images in portrait orientation rotated to landscape and now the rotate image buttons and menuitems are unavailable for raw files including dng's. Camera Raw preferences will not open from Bridge. What is the best approach for uninstalling/reinstalling Bridge and CR updates? Should I reinstall Photoshop as well?

I do recommend that anyone who is having weird issues with iTunes try Dave's suggestion of UNINSTALLING Flip4Mac and see what happens (but will an uninstall get rid of this particular file? who knows).
Good point, and something I should not have trusted without confirming. I just tried it and the uninstaller does not remove that framework. That's a serious "oops" on the part of Telestream (and I did confirm that the Flip4Mac installer does install that framework). The framework folder will need to be removed manually.
Regards.

Problem with Bridge CS6 and zooming to 100%

When I click on a file to zoom to 100% it zooms to 800%. I had the same problem in CS5 and fixed it by deleting the com.adobe.bridge.plist, but this does not work with CS6 and I don't even find the plist. I have a Mac with OS X 10.8.2. I found two plists, com.adobe.CSXS.3 and com.adobe.CSXS2Preferences but it didn't fix the problem deleting them.
I use the zoom function alot and would be very grateful if someone could help me. I do not like the preview workspace with the little 100% window, I prefer zooming to 100% by clicking on the file.

It does not work on a Mac, and they have only one set og +/-, at least my Macbook Pro has.
That is a bit strange, it always has worked for that way on both my Mac Pro and my MacBook.
I can use the scroll wheel on my mouse to enlarge the 100 % preview from loupe in preview window to 200, 400 and 800% but also the + and - keys from both my qwerty key board and the number pad of my extended keyboard for the same result.
Hitting tab for full screen preview I don't even have to click, both aforementioned + and - keys set to 100%, 200, 400 and 800% as well my scroll wheel.
All those methods work on both MacPro and MacBook.

Bridge CS6 64-bit and 32-bit FREEZE on Launch

Now I am having problems with Bridge CS6 again. Both 64-bit and 32-bit suddenly have the behavior of freezing on launch. I get the application window open but no icons populate and I can't do anything in the interface. Not even close the application. I have to use Windows Task Manager to quit the application forcibly.
Not sure what's going on. I went to the start menu and hit Ctrl+Bridge 64-bit to give me the options to reset preferences, dump the cache, and one other option that I also checkmarked. Still no dice.
Can anyone help me out before Adobe Customer Support becomes available in 4 hours?

While searching for a set of files on my computer using traditional search in the gui i discovered that the indexing functionality of windows was turned off. I tried to turn it on and search again but kept getting the error that indexing was turned off. I went to the event viewer and saw hundreds of events related to this error. I thought by suspicion that there might be a correlation between this windows malfunction and adobe bridge not functioning properly. After finding an appropriate solution to reset the search functionality of Windows known as 1) Windows Search and also as 2) Indexing, I tried to run Bridge again and now it works just fine. So the solution to the Bridge problem was to fix Windows Search and also fix Indexing of files.

Bridge CS6 64-bit AND 32-bit crash!

I am not sure why this is but Bridge CS6 crashes in either 64-bit version or 32-bit version. I do not have the same problem with Bridge CS5.5 which I believe is 32-bit.
I can't fathom that a 64-bit app with as much memory (more than 8GB) on my machine and a pretty decent NVidia Quaddro card would cause such issues. I had installed the latest video drivers not that long ago (within the past 2-6 months) when I was experiencing a separate issue on a non-adobe software crash on startup. Changing or upgrading the video driver caused the software to become responsive again and this was with a 3D software application.
If 64-bit apps are supposed to see the maximum RAM why would my 32-bit CS5.5 not crash in the following scenario? :
A top-level or sub-top level directory which is displaying results from subfolders and when I navigate to a thumbnail CS6 crashes but CS5.5 does not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I think I have at least 1GB Vram

Curt,
I didn't know exactly which portion of the Event Viewer app to look into so I checked this Windows Vista document which should be the same for Windows 7 which I'm on:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/identify-software-conflicts-system-log.html
I couldn't find an actual Adobe log since no error window came up when it crashed/crashes.
I tried running as administrator as the other person suggested but could not seem to solve the issue.
I still haven't updated my video driver to whatever might have come out last night but I will double check to see if I am running the latest one.
Thanks so far for your responses guys.

By uninstalling the previous version you have fouled up the file association. You can try the manual method of preferences/file type assoications and changing the default. If this does not work there are other ways that involve more work.

Frustrating problem with Bridge 6.1.0

I have been experiencing a frustrating problem with Bridge 6.1.0 and previous versions. Soemtimes when I save a file to a particular folder, the file is present in the Finder window, but is not visible in Bridge. If I move the file from Finder to Bridge by draging it there, then it shows up but it is so frustrating to have to do it this way. I have tried to use the «Refresh» function in Bridge but that does not help. All scripts are turned on in Preferences- I have Mac OS X 10.9.4

The current version will not run on Mac OS 10.6.8. Thanks for any assistance.
The easiest way would be to update to at least 10.7.5 (supported on most older Macs) but maybe you have strong reasons not to do so, however it will put you in to more trouble in the future because newer applications have more often the habit of not being able to support older OS versions due to limitations of this old OS.
Here is the announcement of Adobe:
http://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/moving-ahead-with-mac-os-x-10-7-and-higher/
However PS CC should still work on your system and otherwise CS6 should. As a cloud subscriber you still have access to both CC and CS6 on the Adobe CC download pages. But only PS is a major upgrade (changed to version 2014) and Bridge has just a minor update and should still work on 10.6.8 I would think?
Installing the updates and upgrades did not remove or uninstall the CC versions of PS, otherwise use CC application to install CC again.

When Place Image in Photoshop, error msg: 'Problem with Photoshop CS6 caused program to stop working

When I 'Place Image' in Photoshop, the following error msg comes up: 'A Problem with Photoshop CS6 has caused the program to stop working, close programme?'
Do I need to adjust my set-up to run this? The PC operates on a 32-bit system/Windows 6.

You need to provide much more info: What files are you trying to place into what document? What are the document sizes, resolution, color mode etc.? Anything else we should know about? This could be a million things from color profile issues to color space mismatches to the files to be placed being damaged or badly structured or a importer module being broken. Also provide exact system info and crash logs:

Problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW

I have a new problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW, and process it as usual, CS6 doesn't want to save it the way it used to. I don't know if I changed something by accident or not.
Here's what happens now: After opening from ACR to CS6 and completinhg all of my work, I choose "Save as..." The save as window opens showing the file name and format. The default format seems to be .PSD. I use the drop down to select .jpg. The file saves normally as a .jpg. When I go to close the image from, I get a new prompt asking, "Save changes to Adobe Photoshop document DSC_xxxx.NEF before closing?
I looked up at the file name in the bar above the work space and noticed that it does NOT change from "DSC_xxxx.NEF" to "DSC_xxxx.jpg" after I have saved the file as a .jpg,in my webesite but it always used to do that. This adds a few extra steps when closing a document and it really slows me down.
In fact, I wouldn't swear to this, but I think it used to save to .jpg by default, without me specifying this.
I don't see a setting in the preferences for what to use as the default file format for saving, so I don't know where to change it back.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Having problems with Bridge shutting down after saving photo in PS Cs5,,,,,,,,, Also when i attempt to update either PS or bridge get an error message in Adobe application manger "Error loading updater workflow"

Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.

Hi I have been having a problem with Bridge in CS4 recently. So uninstalled CS4 and Lightroom 4.4 and reinstalled them on my Desktop PC. When I turned on Bridge through CS4, My thumb nail images disappeared and a thumb nail icon with CR2 appeared. Now some of my images have disappeared from Light room 4.4, but I can find them in CS4 and Bridge now shows some thumb nails as images and some as an icon with CR2. I have spent two weeks going through preferences etc. to find how to resolve my problem. Please can you Help? Meany thanks in advance

I don't use LR and rarely use the bridge so I can not answers about thumbnails in them, However thumbnails in windows file explorer and windows dialog for CS2 files will only show if you have installed codec into windows that will produce them. Windows does not do CR2 thumbnails on its own. I use FastPictureViewer Codec package for RAW File and PSD files thunbmail support.

wen6275,
It looks like you're actually using a camera or phone to take a photo of your monitor.
That's not what is commonly known as a "screen shot".
It looks like you're on a Mac. Hitting Command+Shift+3 places a capture of the contents of your entire monitor on your Desktop; hitting Command+Shift+4 will give you a cross-hairs cursor for you to select just the portion you want to capture.
I'm mentioning this because I fear I'm not construing your original post correctly when you type "I am working with a large files [sic], currently it has 149 layers, all of which are high resolution photographs", so I'm wondering if there's some similar use of your own idiosyncratic nomenclature in your description of your troublesome file.
Perhaps I'm just having a major senior moment myself, but I'm utterly unable to imagine such a file. Would you mind elaborating?

Problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition

Hello all,
I have a problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition (32 bit).
I have successfully installed it immediately after OS installation. But today, i have decided to deinstall it and go for Oracle 10g version for 32 bit.
Everything went normal during installation, but i can see the services is not present in services.msc. Also its throwing some exception for dbca, netca
Now i tried to deinstall it and again go for 11g. But even the same story here..
Can anybody give me a solution for this..
-Regards
Rajesh Menon

SaqibNo need to install a fresh OS. That's like tearing your house down just because you wired a lamp wrong and blew a circuit breaker.
There are MeaLink notes on how to eradicate an Oracle install from Windows, but it boils down to this:
Stop all Oracle services
In the registery:
- Delete all oracle services from the register (HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet
- Delete the entire Oralce folder from HKLM\Software
reboot
Delete the ORACLE_HOME directory and any other Oracle related directories/files. Offhand, it seems like there is an Oracle directory under Program Files.
reboot
