With previous versions of bridge for CS3 I had occasional problems. The most vexing was that some Canon xti Camera raw files (CR2) and dng files could not have their file info changed via bridge. When I would right click on these files, the file menu that came up would lack the choice for modifying file information. It was impossible for these few files to use bridge CS3 to get to fields such as document title, author, author title, description, etc.
If I opened the same exact files in the bridge for CS2, it was possible to modify file info for every one of them. The problem files when later opened in bridge CS3 would show the file info put into them with the CS2 bridge--the one that worked. It was still impossible however in bridge CS3 to modify the file info for these occasional files.
I made the great mistake of upgrading to bridge CS3 2.1.0.100. Today I took more than 240 photos. It is not possible to modify the file info for any of them with lousy bridge 2.2.0.100.
The new version also crashes much more often,simply disappearing without any error messages.
In addition, at least some photos whose file info could be accessed via the older version of bridge CS3, no longer allow such access under the newest bridge version.
The new bridge version is a massive step backward.
Open challenge to Adobe--I will be happy to send you 200 plus problem files that only work properly with older versions of bridge. You could use them to fix bridge.
