Where's Bridge on my Mac?

I can't find Adobe Bridge on my Mac. I'm a subscriber to Creative Cloud (CS6). When you use the Adobe Application Manager to download all of the respective apps from the Cloud, Bridge is not there, although, supposedly, it comes in with either Illustrator or InDesign, I forget which. But, it's not on my Mac anywhere. How can I get it?
Thanks.

Then something's wrong with your install.

Then reboot. Then reinstall.

  • Migrating from Windows (Adobe PE + Bridge(?)) to Mac (iPhoto + Adobe PE)

    I have a family member who is thinking about switching from Windows to a Mac. She is currenlty using Adobe stuff on Windows (PE 4) where she edits and organizes her photo's.
    I've set her up for trial with one of my Macs with PE 4 installed. Now the question is, will she be using iPhoto or Adobe Bridge on the Mac and what is more important, how can she migrate in either situation?
    Personally, I think iPhoto/PE is the best solution, but how should she migrate her Windows photo database to het Mac and might migrating to Adobe bridge not be easier?

    Gerben:
    If Photo Bridge can write the metadata, primarily the keywords, to the files then importing the folders that the file are located in will create rolls in iPhoto with the same title as those folder. Also the keywords should be read by iPhoto and included in its database.
    As you know iPhoto is a image management application but one with the additional features of slideshows, books,etc. It can group photos by whatever criteria the user want. Bridge is primarily a browser type application.
    To migrate her Windows photos to iPhoto she should first copy the folders of image files to the Mac. Then download and run BatChmod on each folder with the settings shown here, putting your administartive name in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folders into that field. This will assure that the permissions/ownership are properly set before importing into iPhoto.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB file backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • I can't  preview svg files in bridge cs6 on mac 10.6.8. Help!

    Hi, I want to know why can't I preview svg files in bridge cs6 on mac 10.6.8. It's really frustrating as an increasing number of Illustrator files are saved in this format and I need to check through a gazillion of them. Help!

    Thanks for the promt reply Omke!
    That was the reason why the thumbnail icons weren't showing up in Bridge. Saving to include XMP data somehow brings in the previews in Bridge.
    I don't really need SVG files for print jobs (prefer .eps or .ai), however this appears to be the preferred file format at the picture library where I bought the vector images.
    Darn, I was hoping that was not the solution, as in order to view the images in Bridge, I will first have to open and  re-save them.
    Seems painful but thanks all the same. Would there be a way in Bridge to batch open and re-save files in another format, say from .svg to .ai ?

  • Where does Bridge CS5 store the metadata files?

    Where does Bridge CS5 store the metadata files that are created under the Tools menu?  I moved CS5 from one drive to another on my Mac Pro and lost all of them.  I'd like to recover them is possible.

    Yikes!

    First of all, all Adobe applications really need to be installed and reside permanently on your boot volume, i.e. the same volume where your OS resides.  There will be endless grief if you install the applications elsewhere.
    Secondly, I hope by "moved" you mean that you deactivated CS5 and then used the Adobe Uninstaller to uninstall CS5, then re-installed CS5 from the original media, from scratch, and not just drag-copied the Application folder.  And hopefully there's an OS installation on that other drive that will allow you to boot off that drive.
    Third, you need to refer to your preferences in Bridge as you set them to find out whether you were keeping the cache in distributed folders or were using the central database, whether you were using separate xmp sidecar files, whether you had Export Cache to Distributed Folders set in Bridge preferences, etc..

  • Where is bridge?

    I am thinking of subscribing to creative cloud so I am doing the free trial for a month. I have downloaded all the apps but where is bridge?

    Once you've completed installing Photoshop, Adobe Bridge should be listed under All Programs menu on Windows 7 and on Mac it should be seen under Applications.

  • When I am re-installing the Mac OSX snow leopard onto an older Mac I run into the window that says select the disk where you want to install Mac OSX but nothing is there to select

    I am trying to re-install the Mac OSX snow leopard onto an older I mac with a new hard drive.  I run into the "select the disk "where you want to install Mac OSX but there is nothing in the window to select. Any advice?

    After you install a new hard drive, you need to boot to another drive to initialize it to MAC OS Extended (journaled) format and create the partition(s) on the drive. You do this using Disk Utility. Otherwise, the mac operating install process doesn't see a formatted disk to install to.

  • I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

    I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

    The D610 needs ACR 8.3 so you are easily covered there.  I am not entirely clear on the process you are using the bring the files onto your hard drive.  The safest way is to simply bring all the NEF files into a folder on your hard drive, then find them with bridge and open from there.
    If still stuck, open Photoshop, and go Help > About plugins > Camera RAW and check that 8.7 installed OK.

    Could you see whether Firefox will start in its Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    Here's how:
    With Firefox closed, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox.
    A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Does that work?

  • Where are the emoticons in Mac Mail?

    Where are the emoticons in Mac Mail 5.2 on OS 10.7.3?

    I used  colon parentheses with the smiley emoticon  which is the normal code for a smiley. It works on this forum. I used to type these in all the time on Eudora so I'm familiar with the different combinations.
    I added a space after it in the system preferences/language popup and sent myself another letter with it included and it still doesn't work in Mac mail (I added a space before and after it in MacMail).  but it does work in TextEdit now.
    Yes, "use symbol and text substution" is clicked.
    The checkbox is ticked in the replace box; in the next box is the colon/parentheses with a space, and then the smiley in the next box.
    Thanks for trying to help.

  • TS4036 where does icloud store my mac osx recovery key?

    where does icloud store my mac osx recovery key for file vault?

    Note that you have to have specifically chosen to store the key with Apple at the time you created the FileVault encryption, and chosen security questions so that you can identify yourself when you come to retrieve it. If you did not store it with Apple in this way and do not have a record of it elsewhere then you cannot proceed. All this has nothing to do with iCloud and the process is not automatic.
