I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.3 running Adobe CS3. When I try and open a file from InDesign from the finder (double click in a folder), InDesign will freeze up and I have to do a Force Quit to close it. Unfortunately, this problem is intermittent and doesn't happen all the time, but probably once a day.

seems they are blaming it on a software update from Apple.
I have a new Macbook Air and the lastest software from Apple and Adobe. Can barely work with InDesign or InCopy at the moment!
Adobe InDesign CS6 appears to be crashing with the simplest of tasks many for many of us with new MacBook Pros. Hope Apple/Adobe work swiftly to get this fixed! These machine and this software is far too expensive for this kind of kink.

One day InDesign just disappeared. the rest of CS5 is still in the app folder. i really need to find it because i recently moved and cannot find my software.

I use Adobe CS4 regularly. I could print fine from all apps in CS4 until yesterday when I tried to print from InDesign CS4 and the app crashed. All other apps in CS4 print fine, as do all other apps. I've attempted to create a new print preset and also tried to edit the printer default, but InDesign crashes every time.
The only things I've done differently (or new) was to test a new antivirus app (Anti-Virus Software for Mac Protection | Kaspersky Lab United States) and also to download and try out the new Firefox 11. I also created a couple of pdf files in InDesign (as I've done dozens of times with no problems).

I plan to get a mac book pro this month. I plan to use programs such as photoshop, illustrator, indesign, and dreamweaver on a daily basis. I do not know if I should get the high end model : 2.6GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB750GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpmSuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)MacBook Pro 15-inch Glossy Widescreen Display I can always get an anti glare enclosue of film for the screen. or The lower end model custom built: 2.3GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.3GHz8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB1TB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpmSuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)MacBook Pro 15-inch Hi-Res Antiglare Widescreen Display I guess my concern is the dedicated graphics card as well as the speed of the programs, I do not want a year to pass and my computer is slower than ever.Is the 2.6ghz really more noticable than the 2.3ghz. Does the graphics card 1GB difere from the 512 in terms of performance. I tend to have two to three programs open. I did not plan on exceed $2500 including apple care.

I just purchased CS4 and ID is not responding. It will open a new document but then will not respond and I have to force quit.
Finally figured out that Suitcase was causing problems. Uninstalled it and now Adobe InDesign and Illustrator will not launch. how I can get them started again?

I am looking for a freeware version of a page layout application similar to InDesign for the Mac. My son needs it for school.
About the only one I found was [URL], are there any other alternatives?
Has anyone used page layout programs to do web design? I'm not sure of the capabilities of both, but heard they can.
Are we at a point where a simple HTML (say 3-5 page) site can be entirely done in Quark 6?
My mac with the full version is in the shop and I need to do some work on a project done in InDesign CS3 on another Mac. I'm not having any luck finding a trial version of it anywhere.

My version of InDesign CS4, will always crash after sleeping, especially when I have files open from a server volume. I've turned off the sleep hard disks when possible option in sys prefs.
Here is the interesting part of the crash log:
0 PublicLib.dylib 0x010eaf97
ProtectiveShutdown::~ProtectiveShutdown() + 279
1 DataBaseLib.dylib 0x0106deda
SUIDS::HandleLostNetConnect(IDFile const&) + 122
This never used to happen before when leaving files open from a server volume and sleeping.
Is there a way in Indesign to have a gradient fade to 0%? I can't figure out how to do it. I could do it in Photoshop i guess, but there should be a way to do it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to print a duplex copy on a HP CLJ 5550dn with Adobe InDesign CS4, I have recently upgraded from CS2 and had no problems with that in the past.
The problem I am having is that the duplex print only prints 3 quarters of the whole page either site. This is also happening on the one sided printouts too
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on in the attached image below? This is how a PDF file exported from InDesign is printing. It is not displaying like this at all on the screen. The frame around the photo is an EPS file layered on top of the photo. It views fine, and prints fine except for 2 photos.
All the photos print fine, except for 2 of them which have these odd triangles on them. The image is a scan of the printed file. Again, it does not appear when I view the PDF on screen, only when it's printed. If I remove the border/EPS, it will print fine. But I'd like to use the border, so I'd like to know what the problem is.
if there was another program available for mac that preformed a similar function to that of Adobe Indesign CS3? I have heard of a program called Swift Publisher, but that does not seem to suit my needs fully. Pages also seems to be a tad too simple for what I intend it to be. So, to restate, is there a program which performs a similar function to that of Adobe Indesign?
View 4 Replies View RelatedEver since our design studio upgraded to InDesign CS4, some of our machines are now VERY slow to open documents (it takes documents approx. 7�13 times longer to open). Also, just using InDesign seems much slower than CS3 (like dragging things, typing, etc.).
The funny thing is this problem only seems to affect our designers who have PowerPC G5 Macs � not the ones with Intel Macs. I realise CS4 will be optimised for Intel machines, but surely it shouldn't be this much slower on G5s?
I have a Intel Macintosh 2.33 Intel Core 2 Duo
It is running System 10.4.1
I own Adobe Creative Suite 2cs premium with Acrobat professional 8
Adobe updater automatically updated Acrobat and since that happened, my InDesign and Illustrator is not working. When I launch Illustrator it just hangs, and when Iaunch InDesign it asks me to "Personalize my copy" but will not allow me to put my serial number in.
I found cpsid_53468 on the adobe website and downloaded a disk image, followed the directions and installed it in my root library folder, as they described. I have tried this many times, and my software is still not working.
I called the support line, and they tell me that this is not supported anymore.
If this is the case, why is Adobe automatically updating Acrobat 8?
I called them and they told me they are not supporting CS2 any longer.
So I am stuck with this mess.
A colleague of mine has a Mac G5 with OS 10.5.8 and Adobe InDesign CS5 installed which has suddenly stopped working. On top of that she can't drag or drop items either. She didn't have this issue yesterday. She didn't install anything new or added any new hardware.

I was wondering if there was a quicker way to customize the dictionary than telling the spell check to learn the words as I go. EG add one huge text file to the dictionary with all the words or something.
So I've had this MacBook for about 4 years now. There has been recently(3 months ago) had problems with it, such as not being able to select things but that has been fixed by apple due to the swelling of the battery. Therefore it was fixed free of charge. I wanted to mention this just in case it could be relevant to the current problem it has. Recently, on my 2nd account (I have 2 on my macbook), everything suddenly froze and I could not move my mouse. I thought it was probably due to the lag of youtube and having more than 3 applications in use. Therefore, I restarted my computer and it automatically logged in on my 1st account(I set that on my log in settings). So everything works FINE on that account and moves smoothly(it also works fine on the log in screen), with no problems. I log into my second one again and the mouse is still stuck (although I can move it within the first 5 second span). I restart multiple times, the 1st account being fine, ONLY having problems with the second one.
Considering I have important files on the 2nd I decide to take a risk and change the log in settings to automatically log in as the 2nd account. I restarted the laptop and it logged into my 2nd account. And it worked. I was happy and tried to go onto my 1st account as well. Then I encountered the same problem. It seems the mouse only freezes (ONLY the mouse because the keyboard and power button works fine whenever I restart it) on the account that's log in settings are not set to automatic. I have important files on BOTH accounts, therefore deleting one is not a solution. This incident happened 2 months ago. I ignored it since it wasn't that big of a deal and my laptop is still working fine. But changing the log in settings every time I need to switch is rather aggravating, don't you think? Is there anyway I can fix this myself or do I have to bring this to Apple?
I was just sitting doing some homework, when my MacBook Pro suddenly froze. I was using the following programs:
Adobe Photoshop
Messenger for Mac 2011 Beta 6
Skype
Safari with like 3-4 tabs opened
iTunes playing a song
So suddenly the song stopped playing, and I couldn't move the cursor or anything. Everything was frozed, so I had to hold down the power button. Why does this happen, and is there anything I can do to prevent it?
