  1. New Adobe Bridge 2019 freezes

    Working in the new Adobe Bridge 2019 today. After working a while, the screen freezes - I can move cursor, etc. however cannot open a file, make a selection, quite Bridge, etc. Only option is to Force Quite Bridge on Mac (current OS) and open again. Open the apps, make a selection and then freezes again. Done this multiple times with same affect. Can no longer continue my work. Was working OK when first installed, however no longer.

  2. Bridge crashes on startup, v14.0.0.102

    Anyone have any ideas of how to fix Adobe Bridge? It crashes every time I open it, after I get a message that says "Error: ParseValue unexpected char".

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled, shut down and restarted, removed all preferences and any previous Bridge files, used older versions of the software, and tried everything in this post: "Troubleshoot Bridge for freezes and performance issues".

    There's nothing about that error message online.

    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.

  4. Bridge version 13.0.2.636 crashing consistently

    A few days ago, I updated my Bridge version to the new version 13.0.2.636.
    After that I have constant crashes in bridge. It easy to reproduce:

    • Start Bridge
    • (Go to a folder with some images)
    • Select one image (for test purposes I select an JPEG image)
    • Hit SPACE to get full screen view
    • Hit SPACE again to get out of full screen view
    • Wait a couple of seconds: ---> CRASH
    • (Or click another image, see below)

    This seems to be 100% repeatable and renders Bridge unusable.
    This is somewhat of a crisis as I rely on Bridge for everyday work.

  5. High CPU usage

    Having generated previews and doing nothing, the CPU load is 80-100% !!!
    When running the previous version, the CPU load is only 1%
    At the moment, viewing and tagging photos is almost impossible with such high CPU usage

  8. 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!.

  12. Bridge v.14.0.0 crashes when open

    I have tried installing and reinstalling the latest Bridge v14.0.0 several times, but as soon as I run it and try selecting any item (or do anything at all), Bridge will crash, and often causes a full system crash. I tried updating my Nvidia driver, but it hasn't made any difference. I am unable to use this version of Bridge. I have used other versions for years without anything like this happening ever before. On top of that Premiere just crashed, again, so I don't know whats going on recently, but I am not very happy about it.

  16. 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.

  17. Can not delete files!

    I just reviewed a photo shoot of 1000+ and wanted to delete about 500 of them. Bridge freezes everytime I try to delete them all at once.

    Tried it several times now, does not work. This has never happened to me before the 2019 version came out!

  19. Silent crash when viewing TIF with text layer

    Bridge goes down without further notice when entering a directory with TIF file(s), that have a text layer in it. I think it is in the program part that generates thumbnails/previews. It is reproducable in two different installations here. I provide a test file with only 'hello world' in Calibri font. - The problem occurs since the last update 27 days ago. - I have Creative suite, so I don't know if there are other products involved in this. It would be fine to have a solution for this.
