Unable to launch mini bridge in CS6

With PS and Bridge open, I'm unable to open mini bridge. Get a display saying 'Waiting for Bridge CS6'... Running on Mac OSX 10.7.4 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, RAM 4GB.
Anyone got any idea what's wrong?

From Mac 10.7 onwards the library folder under Users was hidden, please find the instruction to navigate there.

Unable to launch mini bridge

I have re-installed my edition of PS CS6 on my iMac running Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5. The problem I had before has not resolved. I am unable to launch mini bridge from CS6. Error message is 'Waiting for Brige CS6....'
I went into Finder to delete 'switchboard' from preferences and re-started. The problem continues and 'switchboard' reappears in preferences.
Can anyone help?

Do you have big bridge running before clicking on mini-bridge?

Unable to Open Full and Mini Bridge in CS6

I recently purchased the Student & Mac edition of CS6 and installed it on my Mac OS X 10.7.5. I'm entirely new to CS and was following some video tutorials online, when I discovered that both the full and mini bridge components will not open. If I try to open mini bridge in Photoshop, I get a message "Waiting for Bridge CS6." If I attempt to open Bridge through the file dropdown or from the application file itself, I get an error message that says the operation cannot be completed.
I followed all of Adobe's recommendations here with no success: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/error-waiting-for-bridge-cs5.html I have searched this forum as well, but a similar post was solved by uninstalling a previous version of CS, which is not applicable to me.
Does anyone have any additional suggestions for me? Please let me know if I can provide additional information that is helpful. Thank you very much.

If you also tried a new user account for testing and it did not work there then it indicates you have a false install or install DVD, you might want to use the official uninstaller for Adobe, then use the cleaner tool:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
Read the instructions before acting and make sure you deactivate first and have the correct serial number at hand!
And then make sure you have a legal copy of your install DVD / download installer.
Also before reinstall it might be wise to first run a check and repair permissions using your Apple Disk Utilty (Applications/ Utilities /Apple Disk Utility)
Then try again to install.

Mini bridge in CS6 Photoshop displaying grey thumbnails

Hello,
I"m on a MAC platform and working with CS6 Photoshop with minibridge (thumbnails preview at the bottom). When I preview the images, the thumbnails are all grey.
Does anyone has an answer to switch back to normal view.
Thanks!
sntm

Hello,
Thank you for replying to this discussion. The grey thumbnail preview occurs only in minibridge when I launched Photoshop CS6, not the case with the regular bridge. I can preview thumbnails with images in the regular bridge. Nonetheless, I've tried purging cache but to no avail, grey thumbnails still displaying in the mini bridge.
Thanks,
sntm

Unable to load Mini Bridge or other extensions (PS CC 14.2 x64)

Hello, a few weeks ago I ran into update problems with an update to Adobe CSXS Infrastructure 4, and subsequent updates to Creative Cloud app, Photoshop and Illustrator. The updates would not complete and I could not finish the update to Creative Cloud app to sign in. With help from Adobe online tech, the Creative Cloud app was removed, the Adobe Cleaner run, and CC app reinstalled. Once signed in, I uninstalled Illustrator, downloaded and reinstalled it. After that I was able to finish with the Photoshop CC update.
I've used PS CC quite a bit since then and all seems well, except that I am not able to load Mini Bridge or another 3rd party add in product. The messages I receive are:
Mini Bridge could not be launched because the Mini Bridge extension is not installed
3rd party product - onOne - Cannot complete command because the extension could not be loaded
Today (1/17) I applied the 14.2 x64 update hoping it would correct the problem with extensions but it did not. PS CC 14.2 seems to work fine otherwise.
Any help appreciated.
Tina

I had the same Problem Adobe had me install three new CEPServiceManager4 folder the third try worked. Here is what I wrote back to them
When I ran Help>Updates there were two updates the CSXS update and and Photoshop CC 14.2. Both update installed however Photoshop extension Mini Bridge was missing.
I was able to copy the folder "Adobe Mini Bridge 3" from the my rename "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEPServiceManager4 old\extensions" to the new "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEPServiceManager4\extensions" folder to recover the Mini Bridge extension.

How do I launch mini bridge in photoshop cs5?

Can't find the mini bridge function in in the meny panal on photoshop.
Any tips?

I don't have CS5 currently installed. I'll show you in CC. There is no mini bridge in CC 2014. Mini Bridge is an extension so you can use menu Window>Extension>Mini Bridge to open the Mini Bridge Panel. If the bridge is not running in the background you should see a button in the mini bridge panel you can use to launch the bridge. Once up the mini bridge pabel should function.

Mini Bridge in CS6 InDesign won't sort files

I am running CS6 on Snow Leopard.
When I open the mini bridge panel in InDesign I can't sort any files in the Nav Pod. It has no effect on the file sort.
I have updated the CS software and reset my bridge preferences. Do you have any other suggestions?
Bridge works fine.

I have 8 MB of RAM. I restarted all the software, but not my computer.
It is in the left column that I am having the problem.
There was a previous discussion thread where a user on Mountain Lion was having the same issue, but it wasn't resolved in that discussion thread either.

Mini bridge thumbnails-cs6

Is there a way to change the size of the thumbnails in mini bridge without resizing the panel?
Both on windows 8cp 32 bit.
Message was edited by: R_Kelly

Very cool! Thanks!!
Deke McClelland does mention in the CS6 videos that in the docked position,the thumbnail size is adjustable by dragging the Mini Bridge frame.
I guess that's how the docked Mini Bridge is supposed to work.

Item appears twice in Mini Bridge InDesign CS6

One of our guys here keeps seeing duplicate items in Mini Bridge in InDesign CS6. When looking at the folder in Bridge, Finder or Windows Explorer, we can see just one of each image in there, but looking at the folder via Mini Bridge shows one or two of the images in duplicate.
It seems it doesn't matter which of the duplicates he drags on the page, either of them works fine. But it is cluttering up his Mini Bridge panel and he's worried that he might accidentally delete items by trying to get rid of the duplicates.
It only affects this one user. I've suggested deleting his InDesign preference files it's not fixing the problem.
Any suggestions? I have to say that Mini Bridge in InDesign CS6 has been surprisingly problematic compared with CS5. I wish Adobe had left it alone.
Ali

I suspect the problem is in Bridge, not ID.
Try clearing the Bridge caches or, if that doesn't work, resetting the Bridge prefs. On my Windows system you can do either of those by holding down Ctrl + Alt + Shift as Bridge starts up. On Mac I presume Cmd + Control + Opt + Shift would work the same.

Mini Bridge PS CS6 "Waiting for Bridge"? mac os x 10.8.3

Mini bridge says "waiting for Bridge" II removed /library/application Support/Adobe/Switchborard folder and alo the switch board preference file in home directory, restarted computer, etc and message changed from "no items found" to "Waiting for Bridge"

Hi Curt Y, Thanks for replaying, it actually "Quits unexpectedly", which one is the option botton?, I tried, cmd + shift, and cmd, shift + ctrl, didn't work.
I'm working on a project in which I have to name several pictures, and I just drag them into a template in PSD and change the name, could the amount of images I'm working have something to the with the quitting?
Thanks again!

Unable to Launch Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 using High-Performance on AMD Radeon Graphic Card

I have been unable to launch Adobe Premiere Pro since installing it with the error message "Adobe Premiere Pro could not find any capable video play modules. Please update your video display drivers and start again"
Here are my specs:
Lenovo Ideapad U400
Windows 7 (64bit)
Intel i5 2.5 ghz processor
AMD Radeon 6470M graphics card
The only occasion during which I have successfully launched Premiere Pro was after reverting to the default graphics card on my computer and uninstalling AMD Radeon, otherwise, I have tried to change Premiere Pro to run on High-Performance on Catalyst Control Center to no avail, I do not wish to revert to the Standard Graphics Card as it slows down my computers performance one hell of a lot, neither do I wish to have to constantly uninstall and reinstall my AMD Radeon Graphics Card when I use Premiere Pro. Thank you for your time.

Update:
- with Intel (R) HD Graphics Card disabled, Catalyst Control Center reports that no AMD Graphic card is installed
- using Device Manager under Control Panel, AMD Radeon 6470M was verified to be up-to-date
- Premiere Pro works so long as I disable the Intel card before launch, however, I re-enable it upon startup to get rid of the 800x600 resolution
- AMD Mobility Radeon Driver Verification Tool is unable to verify and update my driver, refers me to lenovo to update it.
- My graphics card is up-to-date as verified by lenovo
- Intel (R) HD Graphics Card now up-to-date
- Display currently mainly using Intel (R) HD Graphics Card (Possibly why it caps resolution at 1024x768 when disabled) I'm not sure how to switch the main Graphics Card used, Catalyst Control Center doesn't seem to have the option.
- when disabled, computer reverts to vgasave instead of Radeon
- Disabling Radeon does nothing to existing display
- After updating my Intel card, Catalyst Control Center reported CCC was not supported by the current display adapter
- CCC worked after rolling back Intel card
From what I infer, I believe the problem to root from my intel card being the main card used, if there is anyway to switch my radeon card to the default instead of the Intel card, do tell me, I believe this may solve the problem, I apologise for troubling you guys, and I'm starting to feel that I shouldn't be troubling Adobe with my problem with AMD, this discussion is probably really out of place but I hope it will help out others with a similar problem.

Unable to use Mini Bridge

When I try to browse in Mini Bridge all I get is it hanging with "Waiting for Adobe Bridge CC". Any ideas, I'm on an iMac with the latest Mavericks

I too have this problem. I'm also using Mavericks on a pretty powerful iMac. I had this problem while using the trial version of Photoshop CC and Bridge CC - both worked fine individually but when I clicked "Browse with Mini Bridge" I got the "Waiting for Bridge CC" message. Oddly, I did not have any issues when I created and tried a "Test Account" on the same iMac.
I uninstalled all trial versions of Photoshop CC and Bridge CC including all plist files, caches and anything else I could find. I then bought and installed a Photoshop and Bridge CC subscription and still have the problem. However, everthing works fine in the Test Account.
There was no Firewall running during the installation or testing.
Since Mini Bridge works fine in the Test Account it seems there is an issues with my main account not the software installation.
Any ideas other than running the applications in the Test Account.
Thanks;
Tom

Camera Raw images unable to open in bridge or CS6?!

I am unable to open my raw images from bridge to ps cs6. The error comes up as 'Camera Raw Cannot open this file'. I have tried downloading the latest camera raw updates and patch installers, but nothing still works. Please help!

We're going to need a bit more information than that.
Are you using ACR 8.8? Press F in Camera Raw to check the version in the title bar.
Which camera make/model produced the raw files?
How did you get the files onto your computer (connection & software)?
Have you tried the camera manufacturer's own software to open the files?

Starts but does not work mini bridge in CS6

Help me, please ...

I have seen this myself moving domains to a different server. The way I got around it was to set the Hostname Verification for the admin and managed servers to None. This is done via the admin console, SSL tab, Advanced.

If you expect an answer you might want to clarify what you mean with this, what system you are on and when it started to behave like this, at this moment I have no clue what your problem is?
