Hi,
I am trying to set up a batch process however when I try to select the source folder I am only presented with my Desktop and 1 subfolder on my desktop. I cannot select any other drives/folders.
I am using CS3 on Vista Ultimate 64. My photos are stored in an external WD My Book Drive. I have the same problem when I try to select a destination folder.
Am I doing something wrong that I cannot see any of my other drives/partitions? I have the same issue when I try this through the Image Processor tool as well.
Thanks!

I have indeed seen that same behavior. Haven’t been able to duplicate it since.

I also have this issue. Source folder canot be anywhere but on the desktop. I can change the destination folder though…you have to enter this manually and cannot browse.

A rather major bug.

I have the same issue. I have to go to Bridge and do a batch command from there. If I choose via Photoshop, I only get the Desktop and subfolders there. Very annoying.
