Dragging files onto Brodge Icon

[Garth Wunsch]

Hi Peter.  This post has just turned into an observation as well as a question.
In the video u drag a folder onto the Bridge icon and voila... all the images open up. Mine don't, at least not when I drop them onto Bridge CS4 (not using Photoshop CS4) but then I thought to try it in Bridge CS3, and it worked (Photoshop CS3 is installed). Any thoughts?

HAve you repaired permissions recently?
What if you drag a single image?

Hi Peter
I had run "repair permissions" about a week ago, but I ran it again just now. Didn't change any behaviour when I dropped a full folder on it, but interestingly enough it opened the full folder when I dragged one image out of the folder... are you clever or what! Not sure if I need to use CS4 now as I don't have any other software installed that it talks to... or so an error message said when I clicked on Camera Raw in  the file selection menu. I think CS4 came with my copy of Dreamweaver... which is another nightmare I'm having

Garth,
I think Camera Raw only works in Bridge if you have Photoshop.
