  1. The operation could not be completed. An unknown operating system error has occurred.

    Bridge 10.0.4 - Repeated error message on startup.

    I have read the posts that are relevant and reinstalled Bridge, rebooted the computer, checked Privacy settings, removed external drives. Bridge still gives continual error messages as soon as it is started.

    The problem went away for a couple of days and has now returned. On moving a photo from one folder to another it moved the entire folder and then showed four copies of the same folder in the directory tree. Back to the same error message now on restarting. Is this unique to me or are others having similar problems?

  2. Photos not appearing correctly

    There are discrepancies with what appears in Adobe Bridge and Explorer. I clicked on a photo in Bridge and it opened a completely different photo, when I went to Explorer many of my photos are missing or are not the pictures that appear in Explorer!

  3. Adobe Bridge 2020 becomes unresponsive after interaction with another application on a different desktop

    I use multiple virtual desktops on my Windows 10 machine. It appears that every time I interact with an application that's open on a different desktop (e.g. Outlook), Bridge stops responding to User Input. The Title Bar doesn't say (unresponsive) when apps don't respond to OS commands. Neither does it say (unresponsive) in the task manager list. But it stops responding to all input including mouse clicks and gives me a "ding" sound. I have to force close it via Task Manager. (I haven't tested if this happens on a Mac as well.)

    Once I close Bridge via Task Manager,…

  4. I cannot hardly use Bridge I keep gettin popups that lock it up and I click them to go away and they just keep opening new dialog boxes

    When I attempt to use Bridge I keep getting these stupid dialog boxes as popups and you cannot get rid of them they repopulate as fast as you close them until you delete the plist in preferences in Library and restart the darn computer again because Bridge is acting up again and this time that did not even solve it. I am using the fastest version and lates version on my 2019 loaded up iMac Catalina

  6. Adobe Bridge "Get Photos from Camera" bugs RAW files, causing "File Info" to crash when editing multiple RAW files.

    So I spent a couple of hours trying fresh installs, no scripts, fresh preferences etc.....

    I believe I have found a bug which causes RAW files to become bugged after importing RAW files with Bridge's "Get photos from Camera".

    My normal workflow was to import my RAW's in Bridge using the 'Get photos from camera'.
    I would then select all RAWs & use 'File Info' to edit the Metadata of all files at once.

    Recently after an update, Bridge's 'File info' would crash if I selected multiple RAWs to edit, but work fine on a single RAW.

    If I copy…

  12. Bridge freeze and crash on Batch Rename

    Version 9.0.3.279, Win 10
    Batch rename causes freeze.
    Forced quit required.
    Repeatable - happens EVERY time.
    Uninstall/reinstall does not resolve.

    Other bugs in current version
    - cannot select first image in a stack when stack is collapsed.
    - not all subfolders visible (view set to show folders/hidden/reject files) some folders are visible, sometimes. Not dependent on number of images/folders (ie. not excessive quantity of files) All become visible when "show items from subfolders" checked, though obviously also showing everything in folders also!.

    NOT A BUG  ·  Abhishek Seth responded

    This is a feature that helps you auto detect a corrupt GPU and turns on software rendering for quality preview and thumbnail.
    If you correct issues with GPU, this setting will automatically turn off.

  14. Bridge crashes while starting viewing a collection

    I can not open Bridge anymore. Whenever Bridge starts while a collection is being displayed, it will freeze and crash right away. Since I closed Bridge last time after working on a collection it will automatically start viewing thiscollection. That is a problem. It is now impossible to start Bridge anymore since it will freeze and crash immediately.

    The collection contains about 400 pictures. No way to start the app anymore without a work around (right click on a picture in explorer "open in Bridge").

    Please fix asap.

  15. Bridge Crashing or Becomes Unresponsive

    I posted a while back when the new 2018/2019 Bridge came out in November. It was full of bugs for us from slow loading to crashing, etc. Now although the load seems to have picked up speed, I'm getting random crashes. We avoid Lightroom as it doesn't fit our Journalistic workflow, but Bridge isn't helping matters when we are trying to sort, tag and rename and it locks up.

  16. crashes when deleting rejected items

    Adobe Bridge version 9.1.0.338 repeatedly crashes when I instruct it to delete all the items displayed. Specifically each JPEG is stacked with the corresponding RAW (using a script), I then mark some as 'Rejected', I then 'Show Rejected Items Only', select all of these (via control A), then right click/delete (to Recycle Bin). The crash occurs during the progress bar of the delete operation. On re-launching Bridge I need to relocate the working folder, however I find that Bridge had managed to successfully delete all of the marked items.
    I have returned the crash reports to Adobe.

  20. White message box when starting Bridge

    After updating to Bridge 2019 the white message box started appearing when launching Bridge (attached screenshot). It appears for several seconds and I have to wait eveytime for it to go. If I close the message Bridge closes entirely.
