Why is bridge cs4 skipping files when batch renaming images?

When batch renaming in bridge, I select all the files and then start with the first image to rename them. Over the last few months, it is randomly skipping images. It will also jump the number that image should have gotten, so typically we can manually go through and rename the file so it will line up properly.
Just wondering why this is happening all of the sudden when it worked perfectly for years!

Sorry Patrick, Did not see the previews before, only saw the thread via
email and they don't show the samples you provide.
After seeing those files it looks definitely like corrupted images. I cannot
imagine Bridge to cause this. Rereading your post, it more looks the result
of a bad functioning write/read process on the external HD or a bad USB
cable.
Assuming you have back up could you test this on either an other HD or a
DVD. Just copy the files again to those devices and retry. That would proof
the fault lies with the external HD.
Could you report back on that?
Thanks for your tips. I tried, BUT didnt solve my problem.
Have you seen how the pictures are distracted ?
They seem hav gotten some kind of alien-verystrange-crazy-adjusments

Why does Bridge blow out thumbnails when adding new images?

Using Win 7 (64b) with CS6 and Bridge 5.0.2.4 x64 (CS6). I use Bridge in my workflow to catalog and tag images. I added 7000+ older photos in various file formats, Canon CR2, TIF, JPG, and PSD to my single directory containing all shots. As Bridge created thumbnails for all newly added shots, everything was looking good but then I noticed Bridge went back and lightened many of the thumbnails by ~ 1 EV. A few images were lightened by as much 2-3 EV and unusable (non-identifiable images).
When launching the non-identifiable image in Photoshop CS6 from bridge, tonal values and exposure are just fine. The images can be edited and saved. Tried solving by deleting image from directory. then restoring it (with different filename) before restarting Bridge. In one case, it worked. The newly renamed and regenerated thumbnail was fine. In other cases, no matter what I do, the image blows out.
This is quite frustrating. Thumbnails just plain look bad. Don't have a lot more hair to pull.
Thanks for any help

Hmmm. That's not very convenient and it doesn't prevent my mistake. At the cost of a lot more typing, it can prevent other scripts from accidentally referencing or colliding with your variable names, but it doesn't prevent you from accidentally colliding with other people's variables if you leave off the object qualifier when you are typing.
When I saw a reference to namespaces in something I was reading, It thought it was more like real namespaces (e.g. C++ namespaces) where you define a scope where all declared or referenced variables are automatically in that namespace unless they are explicitly referenced/declared otherwise. Does JavaScript not have that capability?
It would be more like this:
namespace MyProgram {
var i = 3;
// lots of other code here
With a real namespace, "i" wouldn't be a global variable. It's real name/declaration would be MyProgram.i or MyProgram::i depending upon the syntax.
Does JavaScript not have real namespaces?
I get that I can explicitly declare everything to a scope of MyProgram to simulate some benefits of namespaces, but that's a lot of extra typing and, presumably a bunch of extra work for the interpreter since there's at least one extra dictionary lookup for every variable or function reference.

Why does Bridge open raw files (ndg) in Raw window even though the 'Open in Photoshop' option is...

I don't understand why in Bridge there are 2 choices, -1- Open raw and -2- Open in Photoshop and yet both choices give you the same result--The raw window opens with PS below it. After having worked on my raw NEF files I save it to dng. My thinking behind this, is that I alreay have done what was needed and would now like to start working on it within Photoshop. It seems that the only way to automatically open it directly within PS is if I save it as a tiff, psd or jpg. But since this is not what I want to do then why must I add extra steps as opposed to just opening it hwere I want. I mean the 2 choices are there, so why not do what it is being asked?

If I may step in in this discussion, I always use DNG but never have used ACR to achieve this result.
As Curt stated the changes made in ACR to a Raw file (or for that matter a DNG file) are undoable without problems.
My workflow (using Canon CR2 but that is not important, let's say a dSLR generated Raw File) is to use Photodownloader in Bridge (not perfect by far but still the best and easiest way for me).
I connect my CF card using a card reader and let Adobe Photodownloader do the work.
Inhere I use several options:
- convert the CR2 file to a DNG
- back up the original CR2 on a separate disk
- rename the DNG to yyyymmdd (shot date) and sequence number
- add a metadata template for copyright to all the DNG files.
Sorting out the keepers I open the DNG in ACR and either hit Open (for open directly in PS) or use save as Tiff or PSD depending on next step in development or simply hit Done to apply changes and leave it for later use.
The advantage of having both ACR in PS and Bridge is huge. The only difference between both is that by default PS has the Open Button selected and Bridge (open in Camera Raw) has the Done button selected, thats all.
But here is the good part, you can use both simultaneously! For example have PS in film strip mode with multiple files selected and when changes are ready hit Save as start the process but locks up PS itself. Switch to Bridge and use Open in Camera Raw and start with the next job while ACR PS is still running in the background
When I open a DNG in PS using ACR in either PS or Bridge I continue developing with actions and fine tune with layer mask, brush etc etc.
Sometimes use Save As for PSD with the layers still active (huge files) when needing to revisit or not quite ready. But mostly I use an action to flatten the files and save as PSD.
Both DNG and PSD are ending up in my archive, my clients receive whet they want, PSD, Tiff but mostly jpeg and resized.
When having the job finished and every once in a while I clear out the original CR2 files from Back up because in all the years I use DNG (at least 5 years) I never had to use the original CR2 instead of the DNG that is thoroughly backed up as is the original PSD.
But since disk space is cheap you can choose to keep them.
An other option is to include the original raw file in the DNG but I would not recommend that because the file size is getting almost twice as big.
The biggest plus side for me using DNG is that the xmp data is written directly to the file while original CR2 or NEF needs an xmp side car file next to it with this data.
However saving changes to metadata is taking a bit longer to a DNG then to an XMP side car file, depending on system resources and time this never been a real problem for me

Adobe Bridge CS4 pops error when Update Option from Help is launched

Hi All,
when i m trying to Launch the Update from the help menu of Adobe Bridge it pops-up with a error messge instead of launching update.
The error says
Adobe Bridge
Bridge is not in a position to check for updates.
The cause of the error may lie in the fact that an Internet connection can be established or that you are logged in as a user without administrator privileges.
Ok
Please help what is the probable cause for this.
I have tried disabling the updateoption by
1) Adding the Enterprise DWORD value in registry HKLM\Software\Adobe\Updater
2) Adding the "Update" "Suppress" value in "Application.XML.Override" file while installing the CS4 Suite
I am using Vista Build is the behavioural diff seen on XP n Vista
Thank You

Hey
Apologies I dont think I had made myself clear.
I am trying to package Adobe Photoshop CS4 which has Adobe Bridge as a component. As per the company standards, I am suppossed to be deploying this package & installing it using silent setup. Since this is a corporate environment, they do not want any auto updates to be enabled, as well as disable all menu items related to updates. Hence I had checked through the Adobe Support Site and followed the instructions provided by using the Adobe Deployment Toolkit and supressed the updates using the tool.
Inspite of following the steps mentioned in the Deployment Kit and the guides associated with it, I was unable to supress the Updates options that reflects under Help Menu for Adobe Bridge CS4. All the other associated programs like photoshop, Extend Scripts etc the updates are disabled. The problem seems to be only with the Adobe Bridge Update.
I have also tried disabling the update option by
1) Adding the Enterprise DWORD value in registry HKLM\Software\Adobe\Updater
2) Adding the "Update" "Suppress" value in "Application.XML.Override" file while installing the CS4 Suite
Inspite of trying the above steps the update option in the menu is still enabled and when I click on the updates menu item I get the following error message.
Adobe Bridge
Bridge is not in a position to check for updates.
The cause of the error may lie in the fact that an Internet connection can be established or that you are logged in as a user without administrator privileges.

NEVER MIND: ANSWERED: Clicking on photo in Bridge CS4 opens file not in PSE 8 but in Preview

On my Mac (OS 10.6.8) I had to re-download and reinstall Photoshop Elements 8 after my hard drive crash because I don't at all like Photoshop Elements 10. (Sorry, Adobe.) Now, when I'm browsing in Bridge CS4 (which I much prefer over Organizer; sorry, Adobe) and click on a photo to open it, it opens not in PSE 8 but in Preview. The Bridge Preferences does not address where files open, so I can't figure out how to get it to default to open in PSE 8 and not Preview. Any ideas, please?
PS: Before the crash, clicking on a photo in CS4 opened it in PSE 8, not Preview.
A nice person on Google+ answered the question with this reply:
"Open bridge, then Go to Bridge (Menu bar) Preferences.
File Type Associations, change them over to PSE8 in the right hand column."

You do understand that bridge is just a browser and not an asset management program like iphoto or organizer?
You would need to get your photos out of the iphoto library unless you are using a referenced library. In any case, you don't want to be using two different programs with two different keywording methods. You cannot use bridge on the iphoto library file itself, no, even if you don't care about losing the photos it contains.

After updating Macbook to Yosemite, Adobe Bridge CS5.1 will not batch rename .jpgs without corrupting the files. How can I fix this?

I have a student who when he tries to batch rename his .jpgs in Adobe Bridge CS5.1, the files will become corrupted and will not be able to open them. The extension is off. How can I correct this for him?

Wait, I just caught this:
lmartinecs wrote:
…The extension is off. How can I correct this for him?
Are you referring to the 3-letter ".jpg" extension being deleted? You can't do that, of course! If that is still the case, you'll have to add it manually to each JPEG file.

Why is Bridge creating XMP files in CS6?

I'm using the CS6 beta on a new set of photos. All I've done so far is batch rename all the files (all raw, all CR2) and edited the IPTC metadata - to add my name, the project name, etc. Now I've got a side-car file for every photo. CS5 just included this stuff in the original file, why not CS6?

Hi,
The 'Camera Raw Database' is written to a local directory on your machine, and won't travel (without an extra step) if you copy the CR2 file to another machine. If you use DNG then the metadata will be stored in the file.
If you store the camera raw settings in the Camera Raw database and plan to move the files to a different location (CD, DVD, another computer, and so forth), you can use the Export Settings To XMP command to export the settings to sidecar XMP files.
You may have been using, and wanting, sidecar .xmp files, but just had them hidden in previous Bridge versions. To hide the .xmp file from the Content panel's display, go to View> Show Hidden Files and toggle the checkmark OFF, by selecting it.

Watermarks not showing on files when batch processed?

Hello,
I am using acrobat pro 9. I am looking to watermark upto 2000 files at work, I have researched and gone through all of the steps to set up a watermarking script for the batch function.
However once the process is complete, the correct files appear in the correct folder but are totally unchaged...the watermarkings are set to be veiwable on screen and when printed.
I can watermark and successfully save files if I do them one at a time, it just all goes out the window when I try to batch them.
I am batching 3D imaged pdf's if that makes any difference (doubt it would as they watermark the same as 2d)
used this link to help create the watermark
http://www.pdfzone.com/c/a/Document-Management/Add-Watermarks-to-PDFs-with-Batch-Processin g/
Can anyone think why I am having this trouble? Is there a simple option I am not selecting etc?
Thanks
Ali.

Ok here is how I have created the batch wateramark:
Advanced > Document Processing > Batch Processing
NEW sequence > input name (3D wateramark)
Select Commands: Add x2 'Add watermark'
This is how I set up the first watermark;
Then the second;
Now watermarks are in place ,select '3D watermark' and 'run sequence'
Edit the options....
The files are then selected > OK.
Loading bar appears, and the process appears to run.
Files then appear in the correct specified folder but are not watermarked.
Thanks.

Why did my CS4 Stop Running When I Installed a Trial Version of Elements?

Why did my Adobe CS4 Stop Running When I Installed a Trial Version of Elements?
I cannot use any of my purchased Adobe CS4 products. I installed a trial version of Elements and none of my licensed CS4 components will run. Please help.

So let me be sure I understand:
You can open Photoshop normally as it was before you saw the trial version?
Bridge CS6 opens, but you cannot see your pictures? Here's an easy way to check:
First reboot your computer. Photoshop CS6 should open normally, that way we know it's fixed. You can exit Photoshop
Now...
Make a shortcut to Bridge CS6 and place it on your desktop.
From Windows Explorer, drag one of your picture folders to the Bridge shortcut.
Bridge should open and show the pictures in your folder.
If it does not, get back to me and we will look at other ideas.

Can I use Bridge CS4 Keyword File in PE10?

I have a nice structured keyword list in PE8's Bridge CS4; I want to use it in PE10's organizer. When I import photos, PE10 brings the keywords for those pix, but not structured with sub keywords.
For example:
Places
North Carolina
Chapel Hill

Thought that might be the case - remake it is then. Thanks Bob.

Bridge CS4 not using newly installed Enhanced Image Processing Photoshop script

Hi all,
Hope someone can help here. We just added this Photoshop extention: Enhanced Image Processor by Manovi to our Photoshop CS4's Presets/Scripts folder. Here's my problem. The new image processor opens and runs great - in Photoshop. But when I'm in Bridge CS4 and choose Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor it opens/uses the old script. Does Bridge cache this kind of thing or what's going on.
How can I get Bridge to use the new image processor? (note: Old script was replaced by new one in Photoshop's preset/scripts folder - the old one is no longer there - although we did save a copy of it elsewhere)
Thanks

I don't have CS4… but in CS5 the paths to the files in Photoshop's scripts folder are coded into the functions that call them… Bridge reads these files on request evaluates them then runs… I would suspect the file name may differ from what it's looking for… Have you tried calling it the same and placing it in the same location? If this fails you may need someone to edit the Bridge startup script (not a job for the faint hearted)… Sorry but that ain't going to be me it uses localized strings don't understand them yet… Paul R may well say he can do it I don't know… So NOT cached… but possibly NOT read either in you case…

Would it perhaps help to de-activate, uninstall, and re-install? I have the original installation files from my download.

Fixed (apparently)!
I found a beta driver dated 2006 on the GeForce website and installed it. This allowed me to open "Preferences" and check the "Use Open GL Drawing" check box, which I was unable to do before. The beta driver was not digitally signed, but supposedly enabled 3D and Open GL, which apparently is an issue with CS4. The old driver was version 6.14.10.5216, and the new version is 6.14.10.9381.
There is no explanation for why this worked for so long with the old driver and suddenly stopped, but I don't need to know the answer to that!

Import error on XMP files when bringing in image sequences to AE cs6

Hey everyone,
I'm having difficulty getting AE 6 to import my still image timelapse sequences. It throws an error called-unsupported file type extension. I did not have this problem with cs 5.5.
My workflow goes as follows.
-bring RAW stills into bridge and batch edit them in camera raw.
-move stills to LR timelapse and de-flicker them
-import still sequence into after effects.
The xmp files should change as I edit them in camera raw and in LR timelapse but they will not import into AE cs6.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks for your time.

They are still pictures that were shot in RAW on a still camera. It calls them cr2 files in windows explorer. They are raw image files brought into bridge and when edited in camera raw-the metadata is saved to an xmp file that accompanies each image. Then you bring the images into LR timelapse and it just adjusts the xmp(metadata) files to deflicker them. Much in the same way that camera raw works. You do not have to export the still at all because all of these changes are saved in the metadata. Then you drop the still sequence into AE and export it as video. It just wont let me export them into cs6 with these xmp files.
The raw files are called cr2 files and without the xmp file-they will import into AE. I tried importing some other camera raw files (NEF files) into AE with the xmp's and it worked. For some reason it does not like these RAW cr2 files with the xmp metadata.
Thanks for your time and help,

Batch Renaming Image Files from a list of names

I would like to use the batch rename function in Bridge CS5 to quickly rename newly uploaded image files of our products. I would like to rename the image to it's corresponding product number. The issue is that the product numbers aren't in exact numerical order (ie. the first pic is of product ES2004 and the next one is for ES2012). The product numbers can sometimes end with a letter or a number. The pictures are taken in order of the product numbers on an excel sheet. What's the easiest way to have bridge name the image file to its corresponding part number?

Here is an example script that will do the re-naming also place the original filename into the metadata.
CSV format is fileName,Product IE:
p1020337.jpg,E179562
p1020338.jpg,Z556301
Copy and paste the script into ExtendScript Toolkit (This gets installed with Photoshop)
Open Bridge
Edit > Preferences > Startup Scripts
Click "Reveal My Startup Script"
Save the script into this folder.
Close and restart Bridge and accept the new script.
To use, navigate to the folder with the documents to rename, "Right mouse click Menu" select "Rename to Product" and select your csv file.
#target bridge
if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) {
fileNameToProduct = MenuElement.create("command", "Rename to Product", "at the end of Thumbnail");
fileNameToProduct.onSelect = function () {
renameToProduct();
function renameToProduct(){
var Path =app.document.presentationPath;
var descFile = File.openDialog("Open Product File","CSV File(*.csv):*.csv;");
if(descFile == null) return;
descFile.open('r');
var datFile=[];
while(!descFile.eof){
var line = descFile.readln();
if(line.length > 5) datFile.push(line);
descFile.close();
for(var t in datFile){
var str=datFile[t];
str= str.split(',');
var fileName = File(Path+"/"+ str.shift());
var product = str.shift();
if(!fileName.exists) continue;
var ext = fileName.toString().toLowerCase().match(/[^\.]+$/);
var thumb = new Thumbnail(fileName);
var md = thumb.synchronousMetadata;
md.namespace = "http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/mm/";
md.PreservedFileName = thumb.name;
$.sleep(100); //give it time to update the metadata
var newName = product + "." +ext;
fileName.rename(newName);
alert("All done");

Why is bridge cs4 skipping files when batch renaming images?
