So, I’ve had Bridge crash on me many times. It’s just par for the course. Sometimes it just shuts down. Sometimes it tells me there’s not enough memory to load thumbnails (whether Bridge is the only thing running or not). Usually I can just reopen the program, find where I left off, and continue on my merry way. Usually. I have now dealt with a more annoying crash twice. It crashes and shuts down. I go to reopen and it crashes again. I suggest we try again in the little dialogue box and get another crash. I ignore and restart the computer. Crash again. Nothing I do seems to fix it. Well, here’s the repair I’ve found (in case any of you out there have had such an issue).
When Bridge corrupts and crashes on opening, go to this file:
Main HD (in my case Valencia HD) =>Users =>Your user account (in my case Claire) =>Library =>Application Support =>Adobe =>Bridge CS3 =>Workspaces
Move or delete the !!Last.workspace file.
Now, test Bridge. Did it open? Great! Did it not? Well, I’m not sure what to tell you other than good luck. Oh, and please let me know your solution in case this little fix suddenly quits working for me. 🙂 And now I’m off to finish the edit Bridge so rudely interrupted.
