I am trying to use the Mini Bridge in Adobe Photoshop CS6 (desktop) and all I get is "Waiting for Bridge CS6 ..." in the panel at the bottom of the screen.

I am running on a Core i7 iMac with 20GB or RAM and have already done the two applicable steps in the main Adobe  help area relating to Switchboard (Error: Waiting for Bridge | Mini Bridge panel) to no avail. Any ideas?

Have you tried to start the bridge CS6  then open Photoshop CS6 try to use the mini bridge.
I have a problem on windows too.  Sometimes when I open CS6 version 13.1.2 and try to use the mini bridge Its panels has a message Bridge must be running and there is a launch bridge button. When I use that button Bridge  gets launched but may hangs before displaying its application window or anything in the mini bridge panel.  I can terminate the bridge when this happens with windows task manager and start the bridge. After doing that the mini bridge launch button became a reconnect button using it mini bridge then work.
I can also start Bridge CS6 before  Photoshop CS6 and mini bridge works as soon as Photoshop is up and running.

  • Launched bridge, then all it says is waiting for Bridge CS6

    trying to view my pictures on my computer
    in CS6 and I lauched Bridge and now all it says is "waiting for Bridge CS6"
    I have been using Lightroom 4 so I am not a complete idiot, just new to PS CS6. Any help is appreciated.

    In Photoshop, are you launching 'Bridge' or 'MiniBridge'? Usually the error message 'Waiting for Bridge' comes when you try to open MiniBridge in Photoshop.
    The first thing you can try is to purge preferences & cache in Bridge.
    On Mac, hold down the Command (apple), Option and Shift keys as you startup Bridge.  You will get a dialog box asking if you want to reset preferences.
    On Windows, Control Shift Alt and follow the instructions in dialog box.
    Let us know if that fixes your issue. If not, don't panic - there's other solutions!

  • Can't get past "Waiting for Bridge CC" in MiniBridge/Photoshop cc

    I subscript to Photoshop CC and have been using it successfully.  However, I tried starting the program without a connection to the Internet, and I believe it may have loaded a trial version. 
    The problem I amhaving is the MiniBridge doesn't connect with Bridge CC even theough Bride CC is launched.
    I followed the online advice to delete the SwithBoard folder, retarte the computer and then restart Photoshop.  The SwitchBoard folder was reegenerated, but I'm still getting the same message: Waiting for Bridge CC.

    The AppleID is free, what it wants is a credit card on file to use for purchases you make in the future from the App Store and from the iTunes store.  You don't get charged until you make purchases.

  • What is the problem when I turn on my macbook and all I get is a picture of a file folder with a question mark in it?

    First my Macbook is almost 5 yrs old and is probably on it's last leg.  The other day it froze and was making some pretty loud clicking noises.  I turned it off by holding down the power button and tried starting it up again.  At that point the screen was just blue and the noise came back on.  Then a file folder appeared in the middle of the screen with a question mark in it.  Does this mean the hard drive crashed or something?  We blew a hard drive once before (though it didn't happen like this) but I just wanted to check before I go to the store.  If it's something that is bad then I may just be sending this one to the grave and replace it with an iPad.  Any insight into this problem would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • I am getting a "Waiting for Background Program to Close" message when shutting down since the installation of CC 2014

    Hi there
    I know Microsoft support says this message can be neglected. Anyway, I was wondering if anybody has a solution.
    Previous Adobe CC versions did not show this problem. As soon as I end the Adobe CC process in the task manager manually, I can shut down the PC without getting this message.
    Soft- and hardware used:
    Windows 7 64bit, service pack 1 installed
    Intel i7-2600k
    GPU Asus GTX 970 STRIX
    Thanks for any ideas.
    Cheers
    Juerg

    That's most likely simply sloppy programming on one of the web extensions not correctly responding to system shutdown messages and closing their ports... Annoying, but not critical. If you don't use it, you can always turn off TypeKit and the sync features.

  • "Photoshop" Waiting for Bridge CS6... on a MAC BOOK PRO help

        I have a Mac book Pro, with retina display running on OS X version 10.9.4. and I cannot get mini-bridge to run.  Adobe first told me the problem was with Apple, I contacted Apple and the problem was not with them.  Adobe told me the problem was with my service provider and passwords and firewalls on my internet connection, check with Rogers and no problems.  Now I am told by Adobe this problem is with switchboard (Adobe owns this).
         I have tried everything on the FAQ page to fix the problem and I have also spent days on the phone with Adobe.  They have had me uninstall and reinstall all of my Adobe programs numerous times and I have spent hours at a time on the phone trying all kinds of “fixes”.  Adobe has told me on three separate occasions they have escalated this problem to the highest level of technical support and I still have no resolution. We (Adobe and I) have been at this for well over a month now and It’s gotten so, now Adobe doesn't even call me back anymore.
        The reason I so need this fixed is, as I explained to Adobe, I am in night school (now) for Photoshop and I require mini-bridge in class.  I am hoping that someone else out there has had this problem and knows what the fix is because I have no options open to me this time.  When Photoshop is launched and I clicked on mini-bridge all I see is waiting for Bridge CS6… Nothing more happens, Photoshop is version 13.0.6 X64.  I have stayed home the past few times Adobe has said they would call and nobody has called, it's getting costly at work.
    If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated and thank you.
    Help :-(

    Hello Gener7,
         I did try everything on the FAQ page (all steps) I also did them a few more times with "Adobe help" walking me through 2 more times.  I just don't get it, I have been on with Adobe on some days up to 5 hours at a time for over a month now.  I think it must be something with the installation disc but they say no, no, switchboard is just not working on my OS X 10.9.4.  I even took the computer into the apple store here and had them look it over, reinstall everything and they say it's the Adobe software.
         Thank you very much for your help, it's nice to know someone is reading this :-)  I do work around this by saving the files and reopening them in the next program I need but everyone in class is always waiting on me, (it sucks) and I just think it should work.  Hope you have a good day and I will put an update on here if this is ever figured out.
    Thanks one more time :-)

    Hi there,
    The simplest way is to drag it across wirelessly using the 'Airdrop' application once both computers are near one another. 'Airdrop' can be found near the top, on the left hand side menu, within 'Finder'.
