Some files not previewing in Bridge CS4, only showing icons

This is not new but I finally got to the point where I'm bothered enough to write. I'm browsing folders that have Illustrator, Photoshop, and .tif files, and some files preview, and some just show the icon of the file type. What needs to happen for me to be able to preview ALL the files in the folder I'm browsing? b.t.w., it's not just this folder - it's happened before with other folders and there seems to be no sense to it - some folders I browse everything shows up, others only some files preview and others are as described above. Thanks for any advice...

I would go to tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder. Let the thumbs rebuild and see how it acts. It is best not to start a new action until the spinning wheel in lower right corner stops to indicate it is finished.

i have a totally updated version of cs4 incuding camera raw 5.6 and would like to see my dng files in bridge. i can open a dng file from bridge into camera raw but the thumbnail images in bridge won't show the image only an icon.

Try purging the Bridge cache from within Preference

Why will alias files not preview in Bridge (running version CS5).

help! I'm using Bridge version CS5, on Mac OSX, version 10.7 and I can't get alias files to preview. it just shows up as a pdf icon...any help that could steer me in the direction of what i'm doing wrong would be great! thanks!

You are not doing anything wrong, an Alias is not a file containing a preview, it is just an alias of the original and clicking on it reveals the original file itself.
Try a collection from the files, a collections contains also a kind of an alias but that does show the thumbs as they are.

20D Raw files not valid in Bridge CS4?

Hey there,
I'd appreciate some help with this because I am going out of my mind trying to figure this out.
I am running Bridge/Photoshop Extended CS4 on Windows XP. I have updated to Raw 5.5. I manually replaced the "Camera Raw.8bi" (preserving old copy elswhere on my computer). Both programs were closed completely (including in the tray to close bridge) while updating and even restarted my computer. I have attempted to install the updater (it won't install) but I'm not sure if I need it.
Still, when I select "Get Photos from Camera" in Bridge and then select my 20D, I get the message "No valid files found".
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!!

In Bridge, go to the Tools menu and Purge the Cache for the offending folder(s).
DO NOT use the global Purge Cache command in Bridge Preferences.

Disc Burner. Why are some files not readable or writeable?

Hello,
I am trying to backup my friends computer files on a beige G3 (233 MHz). I am burning about 6 DVDs of AIF music files. Most of the files are about 30 - 40 Megs in size. Often I receive error messages on particular files that read:
"The operation cannot be completed because some data cannot be read or written.
(Error code - 36)"
Followed by the choices: "Stop" or "Continue".
I have a bad feeling that my startup disk is too small but I am not sure.
Most of the files work fine. However some of the files cause disc burner to not be able to use them in the disc image before I burn. Why would this be?
Here are the specifications:
Computer: beige G3 with two hard drives (one SCSI and one ATA hard drive) and a Pioneer DVR-110D DVD writer which is Apple supported (Apple system profiler indicates Apple supported on this DVD writer). My blank DVD disks are Sony Vermatim DVD-R (1 - 16x speed support). Although I think my beige G3 only writes them at about 2 or 4x.
I am using OS 10.1.5. My startup disk which has OS 10.1.5 in it is a 4 GIG SCSI disk. Is this big enough for a startup disk (for creating 4.5 GIG DVDs)? My files are on the second hard drive which is a 40 GIG ATA disk.
I have a bad feeling that my OSX startup drive is too small for disk burning - it is only 4 GIGs in total and OSX Disc burner (Disc copy) is first making a disk image on my startup volume before it burns it. Perhaps that disk image is too large for the startup volume. Is there any way I could ask OSX to put this disk image on the second larger hard drive instead (not the startup drive?).
Here is my process (I hope I am doing this right - I am new at this):
1. I first insert a blank DVD-R
2. A message pops up asking my if I would like to create a blank disc image for this disk (I think this is the typical Disk Copy utility window. I say "yes" and give it a name and choose the "DVD-R or DVD-RAM" option. (I am not sure if there are other important settings to choose here or better settings to use but I guessed the other options that seemed obvious. A blank disk image is created with an icon that looks like a DVD disk.
3. Then I drag my chosen files to this blank disc image. It takes about 30 minutes to copy over. Thats when I receive the error message that some files couldn't be "read or written". The other files work fine but it would be nice if they all worked.
Why would some files not be readable or writeable?
4. Then I choose file/burn in the top menu and the DVD is created. This takes another 20 - 30 minutes. At the very end of the process another message pops up saying:
"Sorry the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (error code -28)" Followed by an "OK" button.
However all the files that made it onto the final DVD are fine - its just that its not all of the ones I originally chose in the first step when dragging to create the disk image.
Am I doing this the right way?
Why are some files not "readable or writeable" as it indicates in the error message?
Is my 4 GIG startup disk too small for this? or are the music files possibly corrupt? or could there be some other possible problem?
Thanks

To follow up, I have some good news. After following your advice Kappy, it now works very well Thanks! Instead of using the 4 GIG volume for the OS, I am now using an 8 GIG partition on an 80 GIG drive. So now the OS has some room to operate. No disk errors occured on my first DVD
Now there was one problem. The second DVD burned gave me an error. I am not sure why but I am going to guess that because I had to installed the OS onto an 8 GIG partition maybe the OS needs to be rebooted in between disk burns because although 8 GIGs is certainly greater than the 4 GIGs I gave it last time, it still isn't a lot of space - maybe just enough to do one DVD at a time. Thats only a guess. So I rebooted to see if that clears the system out ready for the next DVD and I am trying to burn the second DVD again. If I remember I will report back. In any case, yes, this seems to be working. I hope this second DVD burns well too.
Thanks Kappy

RAW thumbnails not visible in Bridge CS4

Well, first of all, forgive me, because I'm VERY behind the times :~) I can't afford to be up to date :~( Also forgive me if I do not use the correct terminology :~)
I just started taking photos in RAW with my Canon G11 and was not able to open them in PS CS4. So I found a thread here and downloaded the update, which fixed that problem. Whew!
Now the problem is that the Thumbnails do not display in Bridge CS4~~just a CR2 icon. Would anyone care to venture a guess as to why that is? Memory? I have a three year old iMac with only 2 GB of RAM, but am planning on installing 4GB as soon as I have time.
Anyway, any thoughts will be appreciated.

.RAF files not recognized in bridge but PS ok. Patch 7.1 installed.

.RAF files not recognized in bridge but PS ok. Patch 7.1 installed. Anyone know the fix?

To me it seems related to your Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) converter. Clue inhere is you only miss the Raw files and have no problems in seeing other formats like jpeg and tiff.
The screenshot you delivered is from the wrong library, however, this same library (the one on system level) also is the location where you should be able to view the correct version of your ACR plugin. The path: library (same as per your screenshot)/Application support/ Adobe/ Plug ins/ CS6/ File Formats. inhere should be only one version of Camera Raw (called: "Camera Raw.plugin") and this should show version 8.3 (141).
I'm not sure about your bridge version number, Bridge 5 comes with PSCS6 but my most recent version of Bridge is 5.0.2.4.
Anyway, if you have only one ACR (8.3) installed in the above mentioned path then you might want to try to delete the Bridge plist file and Bridge cache file manually.
For this you have to Quit Bridge and find the user library (by default hidden, use menu Go in Finder and press option key to reveal).
Inhere find the plist file (user(your user name) / library / Preferences and inhere find and manually delete the file called: "com.adobe.bridge5.plist"
The in same user library find Bridge Cache. User/Library/Caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6. Inhere are 2 files, the adobe Bridge plug in cache and the folder called Cache. delete (or move outside libray) both items.
The restart Bridge (If needed also again hold option key to reset preferences) and this will create fresh files for the previous deleted items, leaving you with an almost out of the box factory set version of Bridge.

I have a document that I wrote today on my phone, went to open it again and the app kept crashing or it would only open half the file. Is anyone else having this issue? On the preview it shoes the whole file, but when I open it only shows a few paragraphs

I have a document that I wrote today on my phone, went to open it again and the app kept crashing or it would only open half the file. Is anyone else having this issue? On the preview it shoes the whole file, but when I open it only shows a few paragraphs. When I email the file it only shows a few paragraphs, but when I go to open it both on my ipad and iphone it crashes the app.
Everything is up to date.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?
I am running Yosemitie on a iMac.

New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.

New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop. Is there a fix? Surely Adobe make a mistake and not keep up with Nikon.

I looked at the current list http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html and did not see the Nikon DF listed.
Would post in ACR forum and see if they know anything more. http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw

Unable to open CR2 files in PSE8 or Bridge CS4?

Unable to open CR2 files in PSE8 or Bridge CS4? Any help would be appreciated.

You would need PSE 11 to open those files directly into PSE. Your options are:
1. Use DPP instead.
2. Download the free DNG converter and use that to convert your raw files to dng files that your version of the raw converter can open:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5518
3. Upgrade to PSE 11, although that won't help Bridge any.

I reinstalled my OS as I do every year or so. when I install CS4 I do not have Premiere Pro Adobe Premiere Pro Error 1603. Error 1311.Source file not found: F:\Adobe CS4\payloads\AdobePremierePro4All\AdobePremierePro4All1.cab. Verify that the file exists

Error 1603. Error 1311.Source file not found: F:\Adobe CS4\payloads\AdobePremierePro4All\AdobePremierePro4All1.cab. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.

And what exactly? You have not provided any system info or other details.

In Bridge CS4 only icons

In bridge SC4 I cannot see images in Raw or Dng. Bridge only shows icons. However I can open them and convert them to tif's and then they are visible in bridge
Something wrong in Bridge??

Thanks for your thoughts Jim,
After trying everything I gave up and moved to Lightroom which works fine and shows me the pictures
I would have preferred PS with Bridge but alas it won't
May be with a new iMac and CS5, Bridge will work again? Hopefully
greetings Daki

Presets Previews do not display in Bridge CS4

NONE of my presets will display in Bridge CS4. I can not see my text presets from AE, or backgrounds or synthetics...... I can view the thumbnails in the content window but nothing but an icon in the actual preview window. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks!

Is anyone else using Vista 64 Ultimate? If so, are you able to view ANY of your presets in Bridge? Text presets for example? I was hoping SP2 might solve the issue but it still does not work which is cumbersome. I have gone round and round with Adobe help, I have updated every driver, program and BIOS and I still can not view the presets.
Any ideas? Sorry to bring this up again but, "I can't get no satifaction!".
Thanks for your time!

SVG Preview in Bridge CS4

Just wondering what happened to preview for SVG files in Bridge CS4? I have tried 2 computers now and both of them have Scalable Vector Graphic previews in CS2 & CS3, but not CS4.
I know Adobe gave up on supporting it in favor of Flash, but does that mean I can't preview the old SVG files I have on my computer. Half the clip art on the web is in SVG format??

Adobe is most likely getting out of the software business... or maybe just admitting that they're out of it. Look at the disgraceful state of Illustrator, riddled with major design defects and bugs since its inception, and never fixed. I run Corel Draw in a VM rather than waste one more hour on this POS. I've given it many chances, and every time I do I discover more craven stupidity in its design and more incompetence in its execution.
The sad fact is that there's no money or interest in high-complexity computer applications for the general public anymore. That's why Adobe has gotten away with peddling the same defective crap year after year. Writing competing applications for even one platform, let alone two, is a mountainous task that no one is going to take on today.
I wish there were a competent vector art program for the Mac, but there isn't. I've tried every one I can find. The closest I've found is Inkscape, which runs under X11. I love to see Freehand open-sourced.
