To all Photoshop users please teach me how to solve this problem. I tried to open Bridge in Photoshop CS5, but got this message instead, what do I do now? Is there something I need to set?

Error

Error 2: photoshop is undefined.

Hi Joby,

That a good question, this is a problem with the bridge, You need to ensure it is not running in desktop.

Adobe needs to be set up to run differently with Bridge.

You can do the following to solve the issue;

  • Press and hold CTRL+ALT+SHIFT while Adobe and its applications are running
  • There is a prompt that appears on changing the preference. You need to confirm it.
  • On the prompt also asking on whether to delete the Photoshop settings file select 'Yes' or 'Ok'.
  • In bridge, there are also similar options that you need to select to change and click 'Ok'.
  • If you installed photoshop and bridge together as part of the suite, you need to uninstall and reinstall the suite to resolve the problem
  • Go to My Computer->Local disk C:->Program files->Common files->Adobe and delete the startup scripts
  • Go to Start->All programs->Control Panel->Add/Remove programs and remove the installed Adobe applications
  • Reinstall adobe from the installation cds

You can then restart the system and restart the adobe applications and it should work normally without the error window or pop-up. 

I hope this solves your query

Thanks
