White Balance NOT Synchronizing in Bridge CS5

Instead of LR3 I use Bridge CS5 and the camera raw tool for my edits (it's all the same tools and runs faster.) ANyways, a strange problem i noticed recently after SEVERAL job edits.. I noticed the white balance was not the same on all my files. THIS IS A HUGE *** PROBLEM FOR ME! I tried everything but for some reason Bridge is not synchronizing the white balance, even if I just have white balance selected.. I need to have all my files the same.. I doesn NOT work in the camera raw module and it does NOT work when you right click, go to settings, copy settings and then paste settings..
Any one else experienced this?
I have ACR 6.1 installed

Is the WB As Shot, perhaps?  Synchronizing As Shot as your WB does exactly that, sets the WB to whatever the camera was set to, which if it is Auto WB in the camera, then the Temp/Tint values will be different for each photo.  If you want all the WB settings to be the same Temp/Tint values you must change the WB to Custom or use one of the built-in WB selections that has a constant set of Temp/Tint numbers. 
What I usually do is modify the As Shot WB to something slightly different by changing the Tint value and then set the Tint value back to what it was if necessary, which will make it say Custom instead of As Shot, and then synchronize with this Custom value.

  • Image Processor does not start through Bridge CS5

    Image Processor does not start through Bridge CS5, it starts only PS and nothing happen. I do not know, how to repair it.

    Most likely you do not have the startup files checked.
    In Bridge go to edit/preferences/startup scripts.  Make sure you have a check mark for Bridge and Photoshop.  Without that they can't talk to each other.

  • LR4 metadata changes are not read in Bridge CS5

    I am saving the metadata in LR4 (as I normally do with LR3) and not all the adjustments are registering in Bridge CS5 or Adobe Camera RAW. 
    The develop panels (i.e. tone, presence) in LR4 have obviously changed and don't exactly match the current Adobe Camera RAW adjustment panel and so I am noticing that all the topmost develop tools such as Tone (Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites, Blacks) and Presence (clarity, vibrance, saturation) are not registering/landing in Bridge.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    You can't get this info in a contact sheet, neither is it easy to get other then look at the camera setting you have used to shoot the files. Maybe it is somewhere hidden deep down in the exif data but I can't find it with exact numbers.
    Shooting Raw those WB figures are irrelevant because you can set color temperature and tint to whatever you like. Shooting jpeg your options are limited because of the fact the Raw data is already processed and changing temperature and tint effects the whole image.
    Try shoot a Raw and jpeg together from the same scene. One with daylight and one with artificial light conditions. (personally I have set my WB in camera fixed at 5500 but with auto settings you can also see the difference) Try to correct the jpeg and the Raw file in ACR and see what I mean.
    And to be honest, if your instructor at College would like to have this he also should tell you why he wants it and how you can deliver it...

  • Files from Windows Vista do not open in Bridge CS5

    I am having trouble opening my images from Window Explorer level with Bridge.
    I tried to open my jpgs with "open with" option  and my PC does nothing. Same happens when I double click the raw images.
    I have my jpgs assigned to open in windows but I assigned my raw files to open in Bridge CS5 unfortunately raws will not open after double click.
    Can someone help?
    Thanks

    Perhaps it is just semantics, but you want the double click to open in Photoshop CS5 and not Bridge.  Same thing with the raw it should open in ACR and not Bridge, as Bridge is just a browser.
    With your raw problem.  If you open photoshop and click help/about plug-in/camera raw you should get one version listed.  Most camera raw problems result from ACR in wrong folder, or more than one version in the folder.

  • Why does my infrared custom white balance not load into Lightroom or CameraRaw?

    The preview shows the correct WB, but the full render removes WB and any monochromatic color profiles.
    Correct WB that I want. As seen from back of camera
    Once the full preview loads. DO NOT WANT.
    White balance is at 2000, the coolest it can go. I cannot recreate the custom WB that is in camera. I can make all of the B&W, but I want the custom WB so I can do a proper channel mix in PS.
    Thank you for any help.

    You can use the DNG Profile Editor to add a negative bias to the WB settings in an existing camera profile and save it as a new profile (for IR) so you can adjust the effective WB lower than 2000K:
    http://stevencastle.wordpress.com/2010/07/17/processing-infrared-shots-in-adobe-camera-raw /
    It still won’t pick up what the camera did, but you can adjust things lower, at least.
    If this one page doesn’t make sense Google for (DNG Profile Editor IR white balance)

  • Creative Ultra for Notebook, white balance not working??

    After years of use with my Creative Notebook Cam Pro I decided to upgrade and get the Ultra for Notebook because it's a CCD and works better in lower light conditions.
    The drivers install fine however I cannot adjust the white balance nothing changes when I click apply. I have both 98SE and XP drivers installed and it appears that the bug is present in both sets of drivers.
    This is a big disappointment because using this cam indoor with artificial lighting is next to being useless. Furthermore there's no saturation controls included in the drivers so I couldn't reduce the colour to b/w even if I wanted to.
    As a product that's been on the market for nearly 2 years I'm surprised that no bug fixes have been issued for this problem I'm sure it's been mentioned before here?
    Does anyone know if CLabs will fix the problem soon because as it stands this product isn't worthy of my time or money.
    Richard S.

    It should be directly underneath the image preview - press the T key if it's not there.

  • "Open with" in Windows does not work for Bridge CS5

    When I right click on a picture to open it with Bridge CS5 nothing happens. Does anybody know how to fix this?
    It worked with older version of Bridge and it stopped once I installed the CS5.
    I have Windows Vista.

    I found out that you can "Browse with Adobe Bridge CS5" when you right click on a folder. However this option is not available for single files. So problem is kind of solved. But if anyone knows how to open single file in Bridge please let me know.
    So have you opened the fly out menu that lists the open wiht programs?  It has a option down on the bottom to set other "open with" options such as open with Bridge.  Does this not work? 
    It works one single files on my machine.

  • White Balance not working

    I'm using Aperture 3.2.2 and when I use the white balance 'pipette' tool to select neutral grey area no changes are applied.  I think I know how this tool works as I have used it in the past.  The image I am trying to adjust I also know needs adjusting as it was shot using bounced flash off an cream surface.  Of course I can manually change the white balance using the temperature and tint sliders but have found better results in the past using the select neutral grey.
    Anyone else having this issue and know of a fix?

    Is it only on certain images that the white balance pipette tool does not work, or is it a general problem?
    If it does not work on any images, delete the Aperture Preference files, as described in
         Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
    for sometimes user interface elements do not work, when preference files are corrupted.
    If only some images cannot be adjusted, then try the library "first aid": repairing permissions and library.

  • White Balance Not Showing As Color Temp

    running ACR 6.1 on Windows XP boxes. I'm used to adjusting white balance by utilizing color temperature settings, but I don't seem to have that option in ACR 6.1--All I have is a sliding scale from -100 to +100 and I don't see any way to change this. Am I stuck with using ACR this way?

    What type of image format is it? 
    The behavior you're describing is for a non-RAW image.  RAW images have absolute temperature.  JPGs and TIFs only have relative temperature because the white-balance has already been baked in so to speak without enough information to reverse-engineer the absolute color temperature.

  • Zoom not working on bridge CS5

    zoom function not working on bridge, when using zoom slider at base, the jpegs move off right of screen a bit before filling next row,

    There are two places on settings where you can tunr zoom on or off for the trackpad.
    They both need to be on for it to work.
    The first is under: system preferences>trackpad>scroll & zoom, then you just need to chekc the box to turn zoom on. ( this is the one you already have checked i think)
    The second is under: system preferences>universal access>seeing, then check the box that says zoom.
    Hope this helps.

  • Lightroom D100 custom white balance not read

    I have a D100 converted to IR use. I shoot with a custom white balance set off green grass. If I open an image in Raw Shooter or Capture I get the balance I expect. In Lightroom it opens as what looks like an unbalanced "pink" IR shot. Manually adjusting the white balance in LR I can't get my normal results - may be related to the fact that the red channel looks completely clipped at the high end which I don't see in RSP.
    The D100 is meant to be supported for reading white balances.
    Any suggestions ?
    Andrew
    ps: I thought I posted this a few days ago but after a couple of days with no response couldn't find it myself so if it is lurking somewhere, apologies !

    Suggestion for a workaround:
    It seems that you want to work with a specific WB value you know.
    Just create a preset with a fixed WB value which you apply by importing your IR shots. Then you don't even have to set it in the camera.
    Besides this with my D70 I get the WB valance values from the camera without probs. I have however no experience with the D100

  • White Balance not Syncing in Lightroom 4.4

    When copying or syncing WB settings from one image to the next, WB settings do not transfer. It did in 4.3. 
    On this system:

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3930K CPU @ 3.20GHz

    I think that the behaviour DdeGannes describes is counter-intuitive. In fact this is the first time I've discovered that it's not a bug (although I long ago worked out how to overcome the problem). A quick Google confirms I am far from the only one.
    I think the logical behaviour would be to sync the temperature values by default, with a possible user-override to apply 'as shot' in the dialogue shown, or in the Preferences file. But even if it is the default it would be good to offer users a way to specifiy that they wish to sync temperature values.
    Part of the reason I shoot RAW is because I don't want to think about WB when shooting. I suspect many people adopt the same approach. Once you've hit Lightroom who cares what WB you shot it at (regardless of whether that was a deliberate choice or you just let the camera do it for you)? At that point if you're changing the temperature values you just want to optimise it so that it looks good on screen.

  • Adobe Bridge - White balance metadata

    When I browse raw files from my Canon EOS Rebel XT/350D in Adobe Bridge I always look at the Metadata tab to check for the f-stop value, speed, white balance settings, etc. of the currently-selected raw image file.
    I noticed that the pictures shot in Automatic White Balance appear on the upper-left portion of the Metadata tab as an icon indicating AWB. However, whenever I take pictures with manually-set white balances, such as shade, day light, tungsten, etc., the metadata tab no longer indicates the white balance I chose, instead, it either shows an icon of a camera or two dashes, as in --.
    Is there any way I can set Adobe Bridge to show the appropriate White Balance icon for pictures I take with manually-set white balances?

    Hi Curt,
    Thanks for your reply. Yes, White Balance is checked in preferences/metadata. All of the Exposure metadata entries are also checked.
    I forgot to mention that my version of Camera Raw is 4.5 (the latest).
    You know, although White Balance is checked, I cannot find a White Balance text entry on any of the metadata lists (File properties, IPTC core, Camera Data (EXIF), etc.). The only place where I can see the White Balance setting in on the upper left corner of the Metadata tab, under the f-stop value.
    Here is a personal question for you: When you browse your pictures in Adobe Bridge and you select one that was taken with a specific White Balance (not Auto), does your Adobe Bridge display an icon for that particular White Balance setting? I just want to eliminate the possibility that this happening only in my computer.
    Thanks a lot for your time and attention.
