  1. Bridge: file named "?.tiff" caused cache to error and exit on startup v14.0.4

    Folder opens fine initially, but the second open causes a crash with an error box but blank message.
    Holding down shift-option-command allowed me to clear the cache and open the folder, but the next startup crashes.
    By renaming the file from "?.tiff" to "unknown.tiff" I'm able to work around the problem, but this took a long time to debug because of the lack of an error message.
    Thanks.

  2. Bridge keeps regenerating cached thumbnails

    The later versions of Bridge keeps regenerating thumbnails every time the Bridge app window gets into focus. It has been like this for a while (used to be OK, not quite sure when this error was introduced). I have been hoping this would be fixed, but no luck so far.

    Here is a repeatable sequence that will show this problem:

    1) Select a smart collection in Bridge (workspace Filmstrip used)
    In my case the collection targets a folder with 13 sub-folders (looking for files with one or more stars) holding the following file types:

    .acr: 6 files
    .CR2: 6274 files…

  3. Cache not loading (no thumbnails, previews or ratings)

    Bridge version 13.0.4
    Windows 10

    Bridge doesn't seem to load cache when I start it. Once in a while, it will work out of nowhere. The rest of the time, it doesn't load any thumbnails, previews, ratings, or edits.
    I've tried clearing all my cache, updating drivers, restarting, reinstalling, and reverting to older versions. Nothing works, except for when it magically does out of nowhere, and then doesn't again

  5. High CPU after resuming from Windows Sleep on SMB share

    Adobe Bridge (12.0.2.636)
    Windows 10

    I have an SMB networked drive with ~2000 files in a folder. After sleeping the computer and resuming the next day, the Adobe Bridge process constantly consumes ~30% of the CPU.

    This is fairly repeatable, after sleeping/resuming.

    Once in this state, changing the directory in Bridge to a local folder drops the CPU to normal. However, pointing Bridge back to the network drive resumes the CPU at 30%, even though all the thumbnails exist and are rendered.

  6. Manage Cache menu option is missing

    The Manage Cache menu option is still missing from the Tools menu.
    Has this feature been removed from Bridge?
    It is still referenced as a feature in the documentation.

  8. If I turn on "Compact cache on idle" it always asks me to click to comapct the cache...

    In Bridge > Edit > Preferences (Ctrl+K) > Cache page there is a switch:
    "Compact cache on idle (Recommended)"

    If I turn it on it alwys displays a modal window with a question if I want it to compact the cache and waits for my interaction (!!!) to click on the X (close) or the "compact cache now" button.

    So... IMHO it is and I am not idle if I have to click on it.
    And... why I have to click on it if once I've set it in Preferences?
    And... if this appears... why it does not have a…

  10. Annoying Notification.

    This notification keeps reappearing in Bridge no matter what settings I set for my cache or how many times I click on Compact cache now or X-out of the notification.

  11. Bridge 2023 Incorrect Compact Cache Warning

    Bridge 2023. When changing panel sizes in workspace it triggers "Compact Cache" warning. Clearly irrelevant, and my cache is properly set and does not require a manual cache compact. Doesn't matter if I say ok anyway. Just does the same thing the next time I change the size of a panel. Not a real problem, just annoying. Have also reset the warnings in preferences hoping it would give me a chance to say "do not show again." But this did not work.

  12. Slow SD card access M1 Max MBP 2021

    Reading SD cards via the new 2021 M1 MBP SD slot is painful - Bridge takes a long time to cache thumbnails, and then when you're been working on a file, it takes 30 secs or more to update the thumbnail back in Bridge. The same issue does not occur if I use the same SD card in a 3rd [arty SD card reader on the same MBP.

  14. Add a Tool i Bridge for preparing 100% previews in local cache

    As for now the CPU is loaded 100% when generating thumbnails/previews/100% prevews in cache.
    A lot of people report the same problem!
    Please speed up the the process that makes 100% previews in cache.
    As it will probably not be speedy even after that, please provide a tool for preparing 100% previews in local cache on scratch SSD drive (no copy in photo folder (useless for single users) - at least it should be an option).
    It should be possible to select preview generation for af folder and optionally selected or all subfolders.
    When the proposed tool becomes available it…

  15. Shared Cache not working with PSD files

    Version: Bridge 11.0.2.123
    OS: Windows 10.0.19041

    Expected behaviour:
    - When browsing a folder or sub folder that has a shared chache the chache is copied to %AppData%\Adobe\Bridge\SharedChache (later local SharedChache) and thumbnails are displayed rather quickly.
    - Bridge should be responsive after showing the popup when importing the cache.

    Acutal behaviour:
    - Bridge shows the chache import popup when visiting the shared chache root folder (containing only tiff images an one sub folder) as expected.
    - The thumbnails are displayed very quickly as expected.
    - Bridge also copies the JPG 256 and 1024 files to the local SharedChache folder alongside…

  17. Server Does Not Seem to Store Thumbnail Cache

    Photos stored on server. Click folder, wait 10 minutes to see the photos. Go to another folder, wait another 10 minutes to see those photos. Multiply by the 30 or so folders I need to look through and now it has taken HOURS. Next day: Those image thumbnails need to be regenerated again. They were not stored in the cache. More HOURS. COULD YOU PLEASE MAKE IT MUCH MUCH FASTER TO VIEW PHOTOS THAT ARE STORED ON A SERVER.

  18. cache update issue

    Bridge 2020: I save 2 copies of post-processed photos, 1 psd which preserves all the edits and, in a different folder, one jpg. Often, I re-edit a psd to adjust one of the effects, save it (over-writing the previous psd), and then save a new jpg (over-writing the previous jpg in the jpg folder). Almost 99% of the time, Bridge does not update the thumbnail and the preview of the jpg unless I purge the cache for the selected jpg.

    This problem occurs no matter how many photos (50-2500) are present in the psd or the jpg folders.

    System =…

    Why does bridge not use the same catalog as lightroom? they are sister products and the potential for integration/working side-by-side, seems tremendous.

  20. Bridge 10.0.0.124 Cache is not working at all

    I'm actually speechless. It is beyond my imagination how Adobe can release unusable version. To reproduce:
    - Generage cache for some folders and subfolders.
    - wait 2 hours
    - turn off laptop, disconnect external drive go to work
    - attach drive turn on laptop
    - run bridge - go to foder with pre generated cache
    - bridge starts generating thumbnails again
