Why won't my Adobe Bridge open?

Why won't my Adobe Bridge Open? I keep getting an error message. I first installed the free trial of Illustrator CS 6, but a few days ago joined the creative cloud. I would just uninstall & reinstall Bridge, but its not in the list of apps to install. Since joining the cloud I have also installed photoshop & indesign. Doesn't Adobe have chat support? I used in when first signing up for Cloud. Now I can't find it.
Thanks!

Hi Trisher83,
Bridge gets installed along with other programs (like Illustrator or Photohop) so it might require uninstalling all CS6 products to be able to reinstall it.
I would uninstall all CS6 products and then reinstall one which includes Bridge from a new user account and test to see if you still get the error.
These links might be helpful for reaching support

  • Why won't my adobe Muse open?

    Adobe Muse won't open. It just says it's not responding. I have a big project on this software....I need help!

    Did you try to restart your computer and re-try? Do you get some error message when you try to launch Muse? Are you able to open the application directly i.e. not by double clicking on the Muse site file but on the application icon itself? Is that Mac or Windows?
    Thanks,

  • Why won't Photoshop Elements 12 open?

    After being away for 3 months, I attempted to open and use PSE 12 and it does not open.  Today I uninstalled and reinstalled thinking that would help, but it doesn't.  It appears as though it's going to open, but the little "streaming" just stops.  Your assistance in resolving this problem is greatly appreciated.

    I am not a technician so I can't go too deep in the analysis... I did all I could imagine to do, I would like that somebody from Adobe would take care of this issue finding solution to the problem.

    >Hoping that you get a break through in your troubleshooting. Do not give up. I kept searching and searching for an answer to my Photoshop Elements 12 Full Editor not opening while the Elements Organizer 12 would. I have reams of data from October 2013 to April 2014 troubleshooting of the issue. Everything pointed to an activation issue but I could never target the place to fix until my break through came unexpectedly. And, as I found out, the SLStore Folder and SLCache Folder have "something" to do with activation according to the Adobe person who put forth what turned out to be the solution for me. Based on my encounter with this problem, I would say Windows No, Photoshop Elements activation Yes.

  • Why won't some pdf-files open on tablet/phone?

    I simply get the error saying: The document cannot be opened because it's not a valid pdf-document.
    However I have no problems opening the file with my laptop, only my phone and tablet (Jellybean 4.2.2) won't open it.
    My friends also have managed to open the file on their tablets (android/windows).
    Have reinstalled and checked updates and tried other programs but none has worked for me.
    I simply have no clue and would appreciate help.

    Hey,
    Seems like the problem was in the web browser I was using, as the file just
    didn't download correctly.
    Thanks for the help anyway, much appreciated.

    Hey,
    spent some time discussing this with some friends of mine and found out
    that the document can be opened by downloading it to the computer and
    transferring then to the tablet or phone. The difference is that when
    downloading with tablet/phone I get a .pdf file, which only has some html
    code. So I guess the problem has something to do with the encryption of the
    file. Here are the 2 different files I get as attachments. After all this
    might not have anything to do with adobe, but some other stuff I don't
    really understand.

    And there we have the answer, the device was dropped.  A hardware issue exists... nothing that we can do to fix it but suggest you replace the device with a newer model or seek an Out of Warranty exchange at the Apple store.

  • XMP metadata from Flashbuilder why not visible in Adobe Bridge?

    Hi there,
    I'm currently wondering around XMP metadata and swf files.
    A: Flash CS5: works
    When I use the XMP panel in Flash CS5 and export a swf, open Adobe Bridge CS5 and select the file, the XMP data are correctly displayed.
    B: Flash Builder(Flex 4.1): don't work
    When I use Flashbuilder and add my metadata to the compilation, then compile, open Adobe Bridge CS5 and select the file, nothing is included in metadata.
    Procedure based on the following (same problem if metadata are directly set through compiler arguments):
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=compilers_14.html
    ../src/config/ProductMetaData.xml
    <flex-config>
    <metadata>
        <title>My title</title>
        <description>My description</description>
        <publisher>The publisher</publisher>
        <creator>The creator</creator>
        <language>EN</language>
    </metadata>
    </flex-config>
    compiler argument
    -load-config+=config/ProductMetaData.xml
    As far as understood, on the background the following is added to the swf at compile time:
    <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf='http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#'>
        <rdf:Description rdf:about='' xmlns:dc='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1'>

    </rdf:RDF>
    I've checked that the medata is correctly added to the swf file using this small software polarswf:
    http://download.cnet.com/Polar-SWF-MetaData/3000-6676_4-10738623.html
    I do not know if it is safe to use it in a produciton context at least in trial mode it allows to check the metadata included in your swf.
    I wonder if this metadata coonot be read by Adobe Bridge because they are at a "lower level" than those put by flash CS5 XMP panel?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    This is not a blocking situation, but I'm curious to understand what happend.
    Cedric Madelaine (aka maddec)

    I was following this post for a LONG time, since I noticed the same problem.
    This week I was getting in it into myself again and I noticed you use load-config. I used these compiler options :
    contributor name
    Sets metadata in the resulting SWF file. For more information, see Adding metadata to SWF files.
    creator name
    Sets metadata in the resulting SWF file. For more information, see Adding metadata to SWF files.
    date text
    Sets metadata in the resulting SWF file. For more information, see Adding metadata to SWF files.
    But that resulted in this XML string where the dc namespace was missing a / on the end of the URI
    That caused the metadata which was added in flashbuilder was only visible in bridge in the rawXML panel, and not the specific fields
    changing the URI in http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ did the trick ( did this in bridge by exporting the rawXML, changed the / , and imported it )
    <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf='http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#'>
        <rdf:Description rdf:about='' xmlns:dc='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1'>
            <dc:format>application/x-shockwave-flash</dc:format>
        </rdf:Description>
    </rdf:RDF>
    Sadly there was no way I could add this / myself everytime.
    BUT then I discoverd this option :
    raw-metadata XML_string
    Defines the metadata for the resulting SWF file. The value of this option overrides any metadata.* compiler options (such as contributor,creator, date, and description).
    This is an advanced option.
    And you could give the exact RAW XML as you  described
    <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf='http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#'>
        <rdf:Description rdf:about='' xmlns:dc='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/'>
            <dc:format>application/x-shockwave-flash</dc:format>
            <dc:title>My title</dc:title>
            <dc:description>
                <rdf:Alt>
                    <rdf:li xml:lang='x-default'>My description</rdf:li>
                </rdf:Alt>
            </dc:description>
            <dc:publisher>The publisher</dc:publisher>
            <dc:creator>The creator</dc:creator>
            <dc:language>EN</dc:language>
        </rdf:Description>
    </rdf:RDF>
    to the compiler. This could also be done in Flash with JSFL.
    In the end I wrote an ANT script which injects the exact XMLstring of metadata to Flash and Flex projects by using the raw-metadata parameter in FLEX and JSFL for flash.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I stop Adobe Bridge opening on start up?

    I have tried going into the preferences for both my Mac and Adobe bridge and it is not ticked to open automatically in either, not even on the list on the Mac.  is there somewhere else I need to look?

    That did it Mende1, quite new to all things Mac so had no idea that even though it was not open on my screen it must have still been running. The icon has disapeared now from the bottom of the screen so I am finally rid of it, thanks.

  • Why won't movie trailer files open in Quicktime

    Each time I try to open a movie trailer file in my Quick time pro I see a down load window with a small X box at the top left hand of the window.
    Why won't these files open. When I go to the same files in Itune Store I have no difficulty downloading and playing

    I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, but nobody gave me a reply. I don't know if it helps in your case, but I eventually found out it was my firewall blocking the download.
    I could view SD trailers but not the HD ones for some reason.

  • Why won't .vcf files automatically open in Numbers anymore?

    Why won't my .vcf folder from Mail open automatically in Numbers anymore?

    Bob,
    Have you tried opening the VCF files in Numbers 2.3 instead of the new version?  Please review this information:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6991
    The best way to get contacts into a table in the new version of Numbers is to copy them from the "Contacts" application and paste into Numbers.  In the previous version of Numbers you dragged contacts from Numbers (version 2.3) and dropped them on a sheet in Numbers.

  • FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?

    What is a raw file?
      A raw file is the unprocessed light data that was captured by your camera sensor. The only settings on your camera that apply to this file are aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. This means that any settings you may have applied to the file, such as white balance, or black and white effects, have no effect. Because this sensor data is raw, it must be processed or baked into an actual image file, that's where the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in comes in.
    What is Adobe Camera Raw?
      ACR interprets the raw data and makes image information out of it. But every camera has a unique sensor and thus has a unique form of raw file. Even though camera manufactures may use the same file extension each time (e.g. Nikon raw files are always .NEF), each camera model has a different way of storing information. Because of this, we must continually update ACR for new cameras. As we add new cameras to the list (over 300 now) we update our published list of supported cameras. Additionally, with the changes to ACR, newer releases will not always be compatible with older versions of Photoshop Elements.
    So, will the my raw files work with Photoshop Elements?
      So if you are wondering if your camera is supported by ACR or will work in Photoshop Elements, first check this list:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
      Once you know whether your camera is supported by ACR and by which version, check this list to see whether your version of Photoshop Elements supports that version of ACR or later:
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
      If your version of Photoshop Elements should open raw files from your camera, make sure you have the latest version of ACR installed. Go to Help > Updates to install the latest ACR release.
      You can also manually download and install ACR updates:
    Macintosh
    Windows
    What if my camera is not compatible with my version of Photoshop Elements?
    Supposing you have a camera that came out after the release of a newer version of Photoshop Elements, so that your version of Elements is no longer recieving updates, you have two basic options:
    Purchase the latest version of Photoshop Elements that supports your camera.
    Use the latest version of the free DNG Converter (for Macintosh or Windows)
    You can convert your files to the universaly compatible DNG format (the files will work with any version of the Camera Raw plug-in). See In depth : Digital Negative (DNG) for more information.
    Where are all of the tools and options that I've seen available in tutorial books and videos?
    Photoshop Elements has fewer tools and options than it's parent Photoshop. These differences are documented here:
    Adobe Camera Raw differences between Photoshop and Photoshop Elements

My file is lost, and I can only find a corrupted version of the file, which is probably an earlier version, and it won't open. How do I get back my finished project?
    I have tried deleting the preferences and opening the corrupted file in bbedit and so far, nothing has worked. My computer says it is opening the file, as the properties have changed and it shows a more recent time that this file has been opened.
    If anyone could help, that would be much apprectaited!
    THANK YOU!!!!

    Essentially the same thing. I double click on the Adobe Shortcut on my desktop, and it opens up for a minute, the blue circle spins and then it just closes. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, downgrading to adobe 9.4 and nothing seems to work.
