Every once in a while, it will be necessary to move students to different computers. For the most part, the process is fairly easy: just drag your folders from your documents folder to your flash drive, and on the new computer, drag them back to the documents folder.
But, if you've already put a lot of work into your collections in Adobe Bridge, it would be a shame to lose all that. To keep that information, you have to copy and paste your collections "preferences" file.
To get to the preferences file, open a Finder window and go to
User (that's you) > library > Application support > Adobe > BridgeCS5 > Collections.
Drag the Collections folder onto your flash drive. Then, when you get to your new computer, repeat the process, pasting your full Collections folder on top of the empty folder of your new computer.
btw, your keywords should transfer without any extra work on your part. The keywords become part of the "metadata," which is stored in the image itself.
