  1. Extremely Slow performance on Network Drives

    I am running Bridge 13.0.3.693 and I have roughly ~43k of photos and MP4's files in a folder. The files are broken into years and then months and span approximately 20 years. These files are stored on Network drive. Some folders have 10 files while other folders may have 500 files.

    The performance of Bridge when starting up is ok at first (not great) but after 15 minutes the performance really starts to drop. As time goes on performance continues to degrade to the point where the User Interface is nearly unresponsive. Even the Windows Task Manager flags the process…

  2. No thumbnails or playback for 4k .mov files

    I am trying to preview the 4k videos shot from an iPhone 12pro. Seems like bridge is unable to do it.

  3. Bridge is Unusable

    Menu bar does not respond/no drop downs, space bar does not open an image for preview. Error windows keep popping up. I have latest updates on Mac M1 Pro.

  4. Image size in thumbnail view is not accurate

    The image size (in centimeters) metadata given in the thumbnail view is never accurate (has never been as far as I've seen in last years). I imagine it is generated by a calculation and rounded off in a way that gives a different result from the number Photoshop will give in the 'Image size' panel. It is almost always off by a millimeter in both axis and is differing along files when dpi is different.

    In example the long side of image all says 25,1 cm but is actually 25 cm.

  5. Now must click twice on a thumbnail to select it.

    In all previous versions of Bridge, it was only necessary to click on a thumbnail in the Content panel once to select it. In Bridge 2023, after working in other panels, I often have to click a thumbnail twice in order to select it. Very annoying.

  6. Files selected after a "Find" do not remain selected after closing "Find."

    I often use "Find" to bring up a set of files, and then select certain of those files with the intention to do an action on them. But when I close the Find feature, the files DO NOT remain selected, which removes the functionality of the Find feature. This has always worked in previous versions of Bridge. Please restore it to Bridge 2023.

  7. CTRL + V Paste functionality

    Maybe enable CTRL+V paste into text fields (like creating a new folder) like literally every other piece of software in existence. I can't believe I'm paying for this piece of garbage software.

  8. image duplication when batch renaming

    Doing a batch rename duplicates all of my images. Bravo Adobe, maybe try beta testing this bloatware before releasing it to the public... it is far and away the buggiest software on my computer.

  9. Bridge spinning wheel of death is worse than ever

    If I save a new PSD to a folder containing (for example) more than 100 other PSDs, Bridge freezes indefinitely, the spinning wheel of death laughing at me as the machine crawls to a molasses speed. When are you going to fix this? Bridge is a mess of performance blockages and freezes. Aren't you even the slightest bit embarrassed?

  10. image preview disappears

    when clicking on or scrolling to an image, it disappears intermittently from the Preview panel. I then have to click on it again to make it visible.

  11. Bridge 13.0.3.693: Incomplete thumbnail display until cache purged

    After selecting a folder in the Folders Panel, most but not all of the thumbnails display in the Content Panel. A complete display of all the thumbnails is only achieved if all files are selected and the Bridge cache for those selections is purged. Quite annoying!

  14. Confuses cards and uploads poorly, slowly photos

    Bridge doesn't let you preview the photo right away.
    Sometimes it shows me the photos from the previous card as if they were the same photos from the next tab. I just see the same photos over and over again

  15. The Operation Could Not Be Completed (13.0.2)

    Bridge 13.0.2 crashes on Mac Silicon (Mac Mini M2 Pro), or when run under Rosetta (Mac Mini M2 Pro). Bridge is unusable. Is this intentional?

  16. bridge exporting

    when exporting with adobe bridge (from .PSD to .Jpeg), the photo turns waaaay darker and more contrasted even though the .PSD file is 100% accurate on the same screen.

  17. Issue Changing Copyright Status When Adding IPTC Core Metadata

    When adding data to all the fields in the IPTC Core fields, as soon as I access the copyright status drop-down menu and make a choice (e.g. "Copyrighted") it automatically asks me if I want to make the changes to the REST of the metadata fields. If I say "Yes", it makes all the changes EXCEPT to the Copyright status; as it stands now I need to do this as a second, ADDITIONAL step...a small issue, but very annoying, especially if I have a large number of files I'm batch-adding metadata to.

  18. Right Arrow-key bug in file naming during 'Export to PDF' in Output Module

    I'm having a consistent problem when renaming a file name or just editing it in the file name field in the Export to PDF dialog window.

    When I have the cursor in the file name field, and use the right arrow key to move one character to the right, it performs a Cancel action and the Window disappeas, and I have to start all over again.

    This happens every single time, this is a very annoying bug that should be fixed immediately.
