Bridge CS4 crashes system

I suddenly have a problem with Bridge CS4 causing my computer to crash (blue screen of death), whenever I try to use the bridge.  I contacted Adobe through their 'portal' several times over the past week and have received no help whatsoever.  I also called their hotline on three occasions and was assured that someone would be in touch, but heard nothing.  I'm a week on this problem and cannot use CS4 and bridge.  I uninstalled (thorough cleaning) and reinstalled CS4 four times and the problem persists.

For any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Emirkill,

Thank you!

This seems to do it for me. I was a point where CS4 Bridge wouldn't even launch, so I first made the tour to hold Ctrl-Alt-Del at the launch and allowed me to restore preferences and she launched without problem (never uninstalled or reinstalled CS4). Immediately, I went into the preferences advanced and changed software rendering. The I tried all the movements that gave me the BSOD and it kept just to work. So I cross my fingers that at least will continue to work until the next version.

Of course, I understand the mileage may very for others, but worth a try, it worked for me.

  • Bridge CS4 crashes

    I have Photoshop CS4 on 32 XP system. Bridge would break to blue screen whenever I try to switch from film to view essentials. In desperation, I uninstalled ch & bridge then reinstalled after the driver update for G-force 8800 GT Nvidea.  Now bridge will not launch.  Gives a message of Windows this program had to shut it down before it still goes to the start screen.  Now the CTRL while launching translates a bit of HD but no message or visible activity of the office.  PS itself seems to work ok after re - install.  Help, please!

    You said in your 1st post you had no success with reset preferences.  Have you tried this with the old drivers?

    Hold down the CTRL key and then click the start icon.  Should get a reset with 3 options window.  Choose all 3.

    Open the Task Manager, look in the processes tab and make sure that there is no bridge.exe listed.  Sometimes with autostart can run in the background.

    Hi geckoartstudio,

    Greetings.

    • It depends on what kind of work you do.
    • You can get rid of Photoshop elements 11, but I think you should keep the other application where you need it.
    • Adobe Bridge is the kind of an organizer.
    • The extension manager is used to install plugins adobe or third, but 4 CS is old enough, the most recent version is CC

    I think you can get rid of them, once you make sure you don't need those for your work.

  • Bridge CS4 does not detect my camera Nikon D800, impossible to download the RAW files

    Hello

    I could download my RAW files, until I upgraded to El Capitan and now my Bridge CS4 can not detect my Nikon D800, I'm always on CS4, but until a month or two ago, it worked perfectly. I have the latest version of the Camera RAW software, too. Any suggestions?

    Thank you in advance!

    CS4 software will not work under El Capitan (Mac OS X 10.11). The software is too old and will never be updated, because it is the end of life.

    You need to restore a previous version of the operating system or upgrade Adobe Creative Cloud.

  • El Capitan open Photoshop CS4, but not Bridge CS4

    Have tried to open Bridge in El Capitan of applications and also 'browse them in Bridge' of Photoshop CS4, but bridge keeps crashing. I know that CS4 is getting old, but if PhotoShop CS4 works, why not fill... suggestions welcomed.

    Try and update the Camera raw for CS4 Bridge

    Mac: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter: for Macintosh: Camera Raw 5.7 update

    Windows: Adobe - Photoshop: for Windows: Camera Raw 5.7 update

    Also, check if you are able to see the thumbnails for Nef files in the Finder

    Let us know if it helps.

  • Bridge CS4 image previews are too small

    In Bridge CS4, can't do the preview images to show something larger than a large thumbnail view, see the image below.  I tried all the preferences in the Edit menu (miniatures for example: do not treat more game to 10 000 MB files, cache options are keep 100% previews in cache export checked/automatically cache files when the size slider possible checked / cache is set to 50%, rendering software saw size of monitor checked/unchecked/generate checked).  None of these options change anything for the size of the preview image.  I have a XOC DX10.1 ATI Radeon HD4890 1 GB, so my video card is not the issue.  I am running Windows 7 Ult x 64 on ASUS P8P67 Deluxe with 16 GB of RAM and over 2 TB of HARD drive space. So my system should not be a problem either.  Here are examples of work images that have been installed with Illustrator cs4.  How can I increase the size of these images?

    Also, these images are showing everything in the image of the AI, not individual images in each file.  How to show individual images in each file HAVE as if they were separate pictures, like Illustrator?

    bridge.jpg

    I don't know anything about the .ai or Illustrator files.  But I think would be it has something to do with how IIlustarator saves the file.  Look to see if there are other options.  As can a test you convert the .ai to another form and see the evolution of the size of the thumbnails?

    You might ask this question in the Illustrator forum too.

    If you find a response message that others would like to know also.

  • Keywords in Bridge CS4 - Delete when the bridge is narrow.

    Greetings

    I went through and applied tags to hundreds of images, with a respective hierarchy as well. As long as bridge remains open and turned on my computer I have access to sort and find files based on keywords.

    'Closing bridge': and all the keywords are missing from the keyword pane, with the exception of a few who are present with bridge as examples that are always there.

    I can re - select all images and keywords will load again in the keyword pane, but that takes time to manage.

    It's like some preferences file does not play, or key words are not saved in the keywords pane. I loaded this app from Photoshop CS4 again.

    One person suggested I go to preferences and UN-click 'Keywords read hierarchy' then open all my image files and even once, click on the pictures to reload the keywords in the keyword pane again. Then return to the preferences and re - click Read hierarchy of the keywords again, and everything to be in order. I did twice, once with starting point before clicking the RHK button again.

    Yet after two years of Bridge CS4, I can't use this function to search for images.

    And Yes, I select a folder or installation disk for bridge to look for key words.

    After all this time, someone to solve the riddle of trying to make this work. I can't update my Mac. I have a PowerPC, Quick Silver, 2002 G4 1000 double. 10.4.11 is the latest operating system, I believe that I can use.

    Thanks for you help.

    Nice day.

    Are you italicized keywords?  If so, they are temporary and will go away when the bridge is closed.  They will repopulate when the image is open.

    If this is the case right click on the keyword and choose 'make persistent '.

  • Bridge CS5 crashes when opening

    Joseph Heller would be proud.

    Adobe Bridge, CS5 crashes when starting.  I downloaded Photoshop CS5 Extended, installed on my new MacBook Air (this computer has never seen any product of CSx).  Installed CS5 installed SC4 legacy serial number serial number, all right.  Photoshop works very well.  I installed all my plugins Nik and Bokeh Plugin.  All right.  I tried to launch the bridge, and it crashes during launch "not able to be achieved.  An unknown operating system error has occurred. "Adobe has released an update, I downloaded, but when installing, it crashes too (could not perform the update and provided a link to the Adobe support.)

    Hours later with Adobe ovens.  Tried:

    (1) by removing the PLIST file for bridge, no luck.

    (2) tried the trick of the Bridge Option to reset all the preferences in Bridge, no luck.

    (3) bridge created a new account Admin, connected to it, worked.

    (4) technical support adobe says it's now a problem with Apple because the program has worked with the new admin account.

    (5) says Apple book sand, it is a program of Adobe, it should work regardless of what admin account.

    (6) back to Adobe, talked to anyone at the third level (always 1), it's an Apple problem.  He suggests to disable Photoshop, uninstall Photoshop, run a clean script (that I just downloaded but haven't tried) which will remove all the files that have to do with CS5 uninstaller doesn't uninstall (completely logical), re - download and reinstall everything, yet once (I've not tried yet).

    Do a Google search for crashing at the opening of the bridge reveals a frightening amount of comments with people having similar problems (don't even get started me on Adobe Air).

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Here are the locations of specific Bridge preferences, you can try to pass Bridge CS5 files the following paths on the desktop to ensure all get recreated and exist. I know that you had mentioned the PLIST one already in #3.

    [It] in the path would be your specific user account.

    If your user account was not all permissions of read/write on any of these directories, which could also be the cause.

  • Removal of bridge CS3 with Bridge CS4...

    I clean up the previous version of the suite a mac CS3. However, I had a few questions I was wondering if anyone has a solution.

    When you run Bridge CS3, images there Bridge CS4. There is no export function I know (is there?). How to do everything that is in Bridge CS3 to CS4 appears before I have remove the CS3 applications?  (this macbook pro that I use was responsible for CS2 days until CS4... I have inherited at work and need to make room but still keep intact images, I never used before Bridge all noob help is appreciated)

    Bridge creates only preview thumbs for its own library of cache and not the

    the original files, they keep intact in the same files you have now

    on your system.

    You can uninstall safely CS3 without loss of images. However you will need to

    to cache the images again at the opening of CS4, but that takes some time.

    You will need to re-create new areas of work for the PS and the bridge, and then set

    preferences back to your wishes, but that is only once. Keep in mind that

    actions and brushes that you have created or loaded onto your CS3 application not

    automatically copy. Better PS CS3 save you first in a folder, you can

    easy access and in CS4 load again of this issue.

  • Recovery of the Bridge CS4 keywords

    My hard drive crashed and I replaced with a new and improved the o/s to W7 from XP MCE simultaneously.  I got my PSD, JPEG and pictures from camera raw (canon CR2) of the old drive and when I started the bridge in the new facility but most of my "custom" keywords don't appear in the list of keywords, or they don't seem to appear in the EXIF data.  Is there a way to retrieve this info from the old disk image?  (this is the boot drive).

    The keywords under XP file should be here: C:\Documents and Settings\ [user] \Application Data\Adobe\Bridge CS4\Adobe bridge Keywords.xml. You will need to copy to this folder to win7: c:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS4\

    This file contains only the list of keywords in the keywords Panel, when you apply keywords to your files, they are stored in the metadata of the files themselves, unless you're talking about in this case raw files, they must be stored in a. XMP file

  • After saving a rendering bridge CC crash video

    I use photoshop CC15 to make a video

    I already tried different format like avi, mp4, mov, but it's the same thing every time.

    Bridge will not display the video rendering

    ... (win7 64 bit - Nvidia GeForce 780ti)

    I just found this thread and it relates to the video made by PS. apparently even if running Windows 7, you must do this, which seems really weird, but a user Win7 said it worked.

    Adobe Bridge CC crashed cannot open MP4 video files

    Put yourself in the Windows 7 program compatibility mode (I am running Windows 8.1).

    In the event that all do not know how to do this:

    -Right-click on the CC Bridge program and go to "Properties".

    -Select the "Compatibility" tab

    -Check the box under compatibility mode and select Windows 7

    And here's a thread with a different solution, directly related to the Nvidia. This solution is an older version of period and only worked for some, but it could indicate a problem with the video card driver.

    Of course, it's a nasty little problem that keeps popping up. If none of these solutions is useful at all, let us know.
