What happened to Camera Raw in Bridge CS6

What is going on with Adobe? What happened to the Camera Raw features in Bridge CS6? It was working perfectly fine in previous versions.
Working on a MAC, first sign, when I go in the AdobeBridge CS 6 drop down menu, select Camera Raw Preferences... nothing happens. Then, selecting any JPEG, right-click, no option to open in Camera Raw like before.
Should I install something to have this activate? Am I missing a piece? We just bought 10 version of hte Creative suite and we rely on Bridge a lot to work our photos, specially Camera Raw...
Any clue, someone?

This from another post. Hope this works.
CAMERA RAW (ACR):
To get to ACR:
File>open (Mac) or open as (windows) and pick file. Change format at bottom to Camera Raw from selection list
File>browse in Bridge, right click or hold ctrl and click on tiff or jpg and select open in camera raw
There are also preferences you can choose under "file compatibility" to prefer ACR for supported RAW files

Problem beim Start von Camera RAW in Bridge cs6

Hallo,
ich habe soweit alle chats durchgesucht aber keine passende Antwort gefunden. Mein Problem ist das folgende:
habe die" Adobe Creative suite produktion premium cs6" im September 2012 gekauft.
Ich mache den ordner mit den Fotos in Bridge auf, sobald ich aber versuche die Bilder mit camera raw in PhotoShop zu öffnen, hängt sich das ganze Programm auf. Es geht garnichts mehr, es kommt auch keine Meldung - es hängt nur. Es ist dann auch nicht möglich das Bridge Fenster einfach zu schließen, es geht nur noch über den Task Manager.
Das selbe passiert auch wenn ich einfach auf das Bild in Bridge rechts klicke und "Öffnen mit PhotoShop" anklicke. Das Prögramm rastet ein, das Photoshop Fenster geht zwar auf, bleibt aber leer und hängt sich ebenfalls auf.
Davor gab es keine Probleme damit, es lief einwandfrei. Ich habe schon eine Rücksetzung des PC's gemacht auf bis vor einer Woche, es hat leider nichts gebracht.
Weis jemand woran es liegen könnte? kann man es beheben ohne dass man eine Neuinstallation durchführt?
Vielen Dank im Voraus an alle die etwas für die Lösung meines Problems beitragen wollen!

When I try open a batch of files in camera raw using Bridge CS6, an error message appears.

The only work around appears to be to then choose to open these files in PhotoShop CS6. This wil then display the adjustment screen in the normal way.
Presumably this is a bug. Any other suggestions.

I get the same thing in Mac OSX 10.7.3. When I control-click on a preview and select 'open in camera raw' I get a dialog that says it's not enabled and requires a qualifying app to have been launched first:
I've launched bridge and photoshop and if I open an app from the mini-bridge within photoshop, camera raw is launched.

I cant open Camera Raw in Bridge cs6 - MAC

Hello - I'm using a Mac and use photoshop/bridge CS6. Today as i opened bridge to batch edit photos in camera raw, the "open in camera raw" option was not available to click on. It worked perfectly yesterday and now today it's not. Is there a way to fix this? help!!

You mean, you right-click a RAW file in Bridge and want to select "Open in Camera Raw" and this is not available?
Then you need to perhaps reinstall ACR.

Can only open some JPEG files in Camera Raw through Bridge CS3

I'm running Bridge CS3 version 2.0.0.975. I always edit my JPEG files through Camera Raw in Bridge CS3. I only have to Right-Click on the file and select "Open in Camera Raw...". However, I've come into a situation where some jpg files will not open this way; the option is not even there.
I have made sure to tick the box in preferences under Behavior "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge", and also tick the box under Thumbnails -> Performance and File Handling "Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF Files.
These files were originally 16bit Grayscale TIFF files, but I changed them to RGB 8bit JPEG files.
Also, I know the program works because I navigate to an older photo I worked which is a JPEG and the "Open in Camera Raw..." option is there when I Right-Click, but then I navigate back to the image I want to edit, and the option is not there.
Here are links to my screenshots of what I'm talking about. Both images in the last two screenshots are JPEG:
General Prefs - http://img535.imageshack.us/i/prefgeneral.png/
Thumbnail Prefs - http://img716.imageshack.us/i/prefthumbnails.png/
Camera Raw Option - http://img847.imageshack.us/i/option.png/

When I open Photoshop CS3, then go File -> Open As and change the Format Type to "Camera Raw", the JPEG files vanish and I can only see the TIF files. When I open them, it doesn't open in Camera Raw, but rather opens like a normal file would.
That's a fundamental problem right there, and a clue in all this. You should be able to see JPEGs in the Open As Camera Raw dialog.
What happens if you type in the name?
I'm almost convinced you have a file named .jpg but with a different image format inside. Can you put one of these files online for others to try to open?

Thank you

Details, please. Platform, exact version of Photoshop and of your OS, what trouble shooting steps you've taken so far, etc,
First thing to try, if it had worked before, is to Purge the Cache in Bridge.

How to open Camera Raw in Bridge, it comes up with the following error

How to open Camera Raw in Bridge, it comes up with the following error Bridge parent application is not Active   Bridge requires that a qualifing product has been lanched at least once to enable this feature. It opens in Photoshop CS6 & Elements 10 but not Bridge?

You need to look at all programs in your uninstall list, and see if you spot any old trials that are no longer active.
Camera Raw in Bridge and PS are the same program, so its not the program but access. Would have been nice it you had stated OS, but here are locatons of camera raw for both OS.
Win           Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings    note: appdata a hidden file.

Cannot open some jpgs in Camera Raw from Bridge

A couple of days ago, I rated select images from a set as 5 stars, and now I cannot open these in Camera Raw from Bridge. I get no error messages or anything, there is just simply no option to Open in Camera Raw from the File menu, or the right-click menu. The images I did not rate still open in Camera Raw, and not all of the starred ones have this problem - just 20 or so consecutive images. This makes no sense to me, as all the images as far as I can tell should operate the same way. They are all jpgs. I can find workarounds to this like working in Photoshop (all the images still open in Photoshop) or possibly just reloading the photos from the memory card, but I'd like to know why this would even be a problem to avoid it in the future. I'm using CC on Win 8.

I should add that JPGs edited with ACR usually need to be writable for ACR to be able to store the adjustment-settings inside themselves. RAW files typically use an XMP sidecar to store settings, but JPGs typically don't.
If the files weren't read/write then ACR would have no way to store the adjustments in them and so is smart enough to not make them available for editing.
The other hint is that if you copy the files to your desktop--where the permissions are likely to be more friendly, they work.
To check the permissions, right-click on one of the files in Explorer, select Properties from the context menu and look at the Security tab. Look at the various user-groups, like Users, Authenticated Users, Administrators, etc, and see what access each has to one oft he problem files, and then to one of the files that works ok.
You might also check the Effective Rights of a particular user to a particular file by clicking on the Advanced button in the Security tab. Here is an example where I show only Read + Read & Execute access to an NEF for general users, but when I check my own logged in User (steve) I have Full Control which includes all the other access privileges, and this is either because I'm in the Administrators group or I am the owner, I'm not sure. It is possible that Bridge or Photoshop is running in a user context other than your logged in user, or it's possible that another user accessed the files and changed the permissions to them.

Camera Raw (via Bridge) starts to malfunction. Help!

Windows XP Media Centre.
PS CS3.
This is not the first time this has happened to me.
I am editing and saving images in Camera Raw via Bridge and suddenly, I cannot activate the Save Image command. The entire Camera Raw window just greys out and/or the Taskbar pops up in front of the Save Image button.
It's as if the Taskbar is invisibly blocking the Save Image button and appears when I try to use it.
Previously, I've had to use Control/Alt/Delete to close Camera Raw (the Cancel and Done buttons don't work either.
Another weird thing.....if I click on the Heal Tool, it will only appear on the image *above* the highest previous healing mark. If I drag the + tool symbol in amongst previous heal marks, it reverts to the mouse cursor! Bizzare!
Anyone else had this problem?
Any ideas?

Sorted.
Though I didn't touch it, the Toggle to Full Screen Mode had been activated.
This, for some reason, prevents the bottom half of the Camera Screen from working.

Can't open camera raw in bridge. circle grey

Can't open camera raw in Bridge as broken circle is greyed out. Why

Not a clue.
I have no idea what you mean by "broken circle" and no clue as to what platform you're on, Macintosh or Windows, exact version of the OS, Bridge, ACR and Photoshop, what type of machine, RAM, etc.

How do I open my TIF file into Camera Raw from Bridge?

Trying to follow a tutorial on editing an HDR image in photoshop. When instructed to open the TIF image into Camera Raw from Bridge, I don't get the option when I right click. What is going on here?

I was talking about an advanced action, which is not loaded externally but executed on runtime (will be translated to AS). So this will only work if you can pass the value of the variable containing the slide number you want to the SWF. For that you'll need JavaScript and I'm not that acquainted with JS. Have a look at Jim Leichliter's blog:
http://captivatedev.com/series/captivate-javascript-series/
In Captivate you create an advanced action to be triggered on entering the first slide, that will jump to the wanted slide number. If you can figure out how to pass the slide number, could help with the advanced action, I know them rather well:

Opening Camera Raw within Bridge

I just recently installed Photoshop CS3, and within bridge when I try to open up any raw image, it opens it up in camera raw, but within photoshop. I can't find the option that allows me to open camera raw within bridge without having to launch photoshop.
I've tried the help pages and what they've described for me to enable this function can't be found...so weird. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Henry

I would really appreciate anyone figuring this one out. I'd rather not have to reformat my mac AGAIN. I just had to because photoshop cs3 was not installing properly. I am running OSX10.4.10 or somthing like that.
I have Design Premium CS3.
While in Bridge, there is no option to open in CameraRAw, whether I right click or click on File.
In the Preferences, there is no option to make "double click opens in CameraRaw."
Work flow is seriously hampered by this defect.
I purged my cache, but I don't see how to reset all settings.

In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

What operating system are you using?
Which version of camera raw do you have in photoshop cs6?
After you select the Adjustment Brush, the New button should already be enabled.
Then after you draw on an area of the image, the Add button should be enabled, with the option to choose either of the other two buttons; New or Erase
Could you post a screenshot?
Maybe all the adjustment values are set to zero?
(at least one needs to have a value other than zero)
