Will CS5 Bridge transfer to Lightroom 3?

I'm currently using CS5 Bridge and was wondering if I used Lightroom 3 whether all of my information (star ratings, collections, etc.) would easily transfer.  I understand Bridge is "on its way out" in the future and am concerned that my current organizational tools such as mentioned will be lost.

I haven't heard "Bridge is on it's way out"...but all your metadata (ratings, keywords, etc) should be retained as long as you're saving the metadata with your files and using sidecar files for raw files (if any). I'm not sure how Collections are handled between the two apps. Probably a better question for the Bridge forum:

  • Will the Keywords transfer from Lightroom to Bridge?

    Will the Keywords transfer from Lightroom to Bridge

    In LR once you add a keyword, have that thunbnail highlighted and (if on a Mac) hit the Command Key + the S key and it will send the info so it will be readable in Bridge. Or go to Metadata and click to send metadata to file. (I don't know the shortcut for a PC)  I haven't done it with PSCC yet, but in CS6 I quite often had to close out Bridge and re-start it and the keywords showed up.

  • How can I use the templates I generated in CS5 Bridge, in Lightroom 4.4?

    How can I use the templates I generated in CS5 Bridge, in Lightroom 4.4 ?
    It appears that I can not link the templates which I have been using in Bridge for some time to Lightroom 4.4.
    Is this done on purpose?
    Thanks in advance
    Doppy

    I assume these are metadata templates?
    in Bridge, apply a template to an image which has no other metadata (eg a dummy image ) and then import the image into Lightroom, ensuring no metadata applied in the Import dialog. Now in Lightroom's Metadata panel, save the metadata as a new Metadata Preset.
    Repeat for each template.

  • After CS6beta install, how to I tell CS5 bridge to open images in Photoshop CS5?

    I am not ready to do all of my work in CS6 now, I am just trying to learn the interface.  But now I cannot opening anything through bridge or windows explorer using Photoshop CS5 at all.  The only way that I can open any image file in CS5 is to do it directly from Photoshop in the file open menu.  How can I set Bridge CS5 to at least have Photoshop CS5 as an option, if not the default?

    Open Photoshop CS5, and launch Bridge from there (Ctrl Alt o) That will open Bridge CS5, and load images into Photoshop CS5.

  • 'Adjustment Brush' in CS5 Bridge

    The adjustment brush in my CS5 Bridge is no longer working. Can some offer me a solution?

    The adjustment brush in my CS5 Bridge is no longer working
    This is a tool in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) and ACR is a plug in that works in both Photoshop and Bridge. If you choose to open a file by pointing at it in the Bridge content panel it opens in ACR using Photoshop.
    If you choose to Open In Camera Raw it opens in ACR using Bridge.
    So first test both options, but it is likely you will get a better answer in the dedicated Camera Raw forum.

  • CS5 Bridge stutters

    I upgraded from CS4 to CS5 with no
    issues. I can open both the 32 and 64 bit version of PS with no issues.
    But when I open CS5 Bridge, the PC slows and my mouse stutters. My processor meter jumps up to 50% and then down to zero...like its stuck...and will continue to do this until I close bridge...and then all is fine.
    I have 8GB of memory and have tried all forms of settings in the PS memory allocation, cache sites, etc...nothing changes.
    I have tried resetting bridge using the CNTRL command on opening. I have tries manual removing cache loacstions, etc.
    All with no change.
    I even tried removing and reloading CS5...no change.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I have a case open but the PFD response "every two days try this" is getting really frustrating!!!!

  • Does Photoshop CS5, Elements 8 and Lightroom 3 support Windows 7 64 bit Home Edition?

    Does Photoshop CS5, Elements 8 and Lightroom 3 support Windows 7 64 bit Home Edition?  Any issue installing these products on a new PC when I already have it installed on another PC?  I am getting a new PC to replace XP machine I already have.

    Yes, Photoshop runs on all editions of Windows 7 as far as I know.
    And the Photoshop EULA does give you the option to install and activate the software on a second machine.  Once you no longer need the XP system, assuming it's still functional, just deactivate the Adobe software on it and you'll be able to have the same flexibility again in the future.
    If ever you have a licensing agreement question, all the EULAs are online here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/
    A side note:  Windows Home Premium may do all you need for now, but keep in mind there is a Windows Anytime Upgrade you can buy in the future that will allow you to move up to a higher edition of Windows 7 later if you should feel you need more features.
    This page has some information on that, and also describes the edition differences pretty thoroughly.  I especially like the nice table they've built:

  • Can I use photoshop cc and bridge without using lightroom

    Generally i prefer to ignore lightroom and start from Bridge.  I am currently using CS5.  Said another way, if i purchase PS CC do i have to use lightroom?

    Yes, you can use Photoshop+Bridge without using Lightroom.

  • Will deleting bridge affect Illustrator?

    I have Bridge CS3, CS4, and CS5. I only need one Bridge, and prefer to only have CS5.
    Will deleting bridge cs4 affect illustrator cs4? There is no uninstall option, and I have read that to uninstall bridge, a person must uninstall the other software in that suite. However, I don't want to do that, but delete the versions of bridge that are just wasted hard drive space.
    If I delete the Bridge CS3 and CS4 folders, will it affect the cs3 and cs4 programs? If so, is there a way to delete them, but have it so that if I click bridge within Flash or Illustrator, that it will open CS5?

    How about on the PC? It is not in my budget to replace my hard drive,
    and it is pretty full, so I need to remove whatever programs, etc that I
    don't need in order to be effective. Where might I find the
    uninstaller?  I am able to enter into bridge cs5 and open files within
    photoshop cs2. I think I can do the same with bridge cs5 and flash cs3
    or illustrator cs4.
    Yes you can use bridge CS5 with earlier versions of the other apps, they are not tied together. The only issue that you may come across is starting bridge from inside ofthe other apps. As they don't have an option in their preferences for specifying which Bridge you want to use. But Bridge does allow you to specify which apps to use. If that makes sense.
    Edit: As for hard drives you can pick up a drive for a little under a hundred depending on what size you want. Also most PC's will allow a secondary drive which you can use for your data and keep your apps on the master drive.
    Though I prefer to use the secondary as a backup drive.
    Your choice...

  • Will Photoshop Touch work with Lightroom?

    I have read that Photoshop Touch for the iPad will work with Adobe CS5.  Will it also work with Lightroom?  Being able to easiy import photos etc.?  thanks,

    Hi Evertsa,
    Sorry for the delay. There is a plug-in for Photoshop that allows you to import Photoshop Touch project files into Photoshop CS5 on a computer by transferring the file through a the Creative Cloud website (https://creative.adobe.com/) and importing with a special plug-in. If you sent out jpeg copy of a project from within PS Touch to somewhere you could import it on a computer into your Lightroom catalog that would work (via email would be the easiest), but its not natively setup to work with Lightroom.
    Check out this doc that describes the workflow with Photoshop CS5.

    There is another option if the Macbook will start up in Target Disk Mode.
    Restart the computer while holding down the T key. If you see the firewire symbol moving around on the screen you can connect this one to another one in TDM. You will need a suitable cable to connect the two Macs.
