CS3 to CS5 Master page issue

Hi, we just got CS5 at work and we're testing the compatibility with our CS3 projects.
Almost everything seems fine aside from this weird problem, i got a master page graphic on master page C that is appearing on a master page B (in the document not in the master page panel). In fact, in every chapter of my book, everytime that Master C is applied on the right page, the left page seems to use that master page too, but its suppose to be B.... and the page panel says B... i can select the graphic, unlock it and delete it... which.. does not seem to be the right thing to do.
is there an option that says that spreads must use the same master pages or something?
In the screenshot below, i'm trying to show the page panel on page 200, that says B, but as you can see, there's a graphic behind my text frame that comes from the page on the right...
Thanks in advance!

I think the solution for this is go to page panel and right click on pages and uncheck option 'Allow selected spread to shuffle' (red box), so you now drag the page down (orange box), I think this will solve the problem for now, but if that happen with a lot of pages, you will need more time to do that with all pages

hope it is clear and useful

Custom Master Page Issue in Intranet

Hi All,
I hope someone can assist with this, we implemented this particular SharePoint 2007 portal approximately 5 years ago. An outside consultant created this custom master page, for some reason out of nowhere we are experiencing this bizarre issue with
the master page and checking in and out documents. I have attached an image showing the error message being displayed below(couldn't attach until my account was verified but it states 'Error invalid viewstate, port 52208, user agent Mozilla/4.0..., viewstate,
referrer, path). I came across one source on the web that stated something about the search box code and it causing issues out of nowhere on the master page. So in my dev environment I made the change and removed the following code from the master
page below.
<td style="padding-top:8px;" valign=top>
            <asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="PlaceHolderSearchArea" runat="server">
            <SharePoint:DelegateControl runat="server" ControlId="SmallSearchInputBox"/>
            </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</td>
As soon as this code is removed and the page is published again everything begins to work again, the problem is I can't remove search from this intranet portal as it is heavily used. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

By any chance, do you still have access to the solution package in which the master page was contained? Normally, you would see another .ascx user control overriding the delegate search control in there. I'm almost positive that this custom control is
what causing this issue.

Master page issue

Has the problem of objects in the master pages falling out of the document after exporting to pdf been addressed in CS6?

Two very recent threads on this:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018754?tstart=60
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1016281?tstart=30
Both threads mention CS6, but I can personally vow this also happens with CS4 -- only last month, an intern ran afoul of it and all I needed was a single glance to spot the issue.
I have a habit of *never* straddling objects across master pages; it could be I learned not to as much as a decade ago. I'm pretty sure every now and then it was mentioned as a harmful bug in this forum.

Custom Master Page issue with Document Set Libraries

Details: Publishing site using SharePoint 2013. The SharePoint is on my company's servers.
Have a custom Master page that has a navigation banner (built with HTML/CSS/javascript). The site has it applied successfully to the "Site Master Page" but when I also apply it to the "System Master Page", the libraries that have
Document Set type content do not show the files within. We'd like to be successful in applying to the "System Master Page" as that allows the banner to show when an actual library is accessed. Any suggestions, please?

Thanks. I've been experimenting with this for a few days now, and there's lots I don't understand about why and such, but your process above works. That's a big load off me right now and I really appreciate it. I'm going to be able to survive the initial
roll-out and implementation of the new site. Going forward, I've got lots to learn and find out, I've already heard that there's a desire to really redesign the master page for the site and subsites, way beyond the little CSS customization I did. Fun.
If you've got a little time though, perhaps you can provide some explanation. If not, no problem.
On step 6, when I do as you detail, click the System Master Page and reset all the subsites, it seems to work fine with my custom master page. If I do that with the Site Master Page settings, my custom page causes the redirect issue in the subsites again.
This is whether I do the Site Master Page by itself, or in conjunction with the System Master Page settings. If I revert back to the Seattle master page in the Site Master Page settings and my custom pate in the System Master Page, the issue goes away again.
It is completely messing with my head, trying to figure out why that would be, and this is all beside trying to figure out why adding the one little CSS reference to the Seattle master to create my master page breaks things (sometimes!).
Just fyi, what I've ended up with for now is pulling my custom master page out of the system and using the Alternate CSS URL to add my custom CSS to the Seattle master page on the sites. As I thought about all this, I decided I didn't want to leave the breakable
custom page out there for some unsuspecting site manager to accidentally pick and get everyone screaming about the broken sites.

Custom master page issue in subsites

Greetings!
I've run into an oddity with a custom master page on my SharePoint 2013 Enterprise server. I copied the html for the seattle master page, renamed it so it wouldn't change the seattle master, made an addition to it to add a reference to a custom css
file, then threw it back up on the site so SP would make a new .master file with it. I created a new web app and site collection, put the custom css file in the Style Library and added the custom master page to the Master Pages.
So, all that being done, I changed the look of the top level site to use the new master page and it looks great and seems to be working as expected. We've got a number of subsites planned for underneath this top level site, I'm thinking no problem, just
put the custom master file in the master pages and we'll be good. So I create a subsite, put the custom master page in the subsite's Master Pages, change the look. The master page and custom css apply and it looks good, but, then the problem starts.
When I go into a document library and change a view or add a view or delete a view I get back an odd response page from SP. In the url I see this: https://topsite/subsite/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=65001
and in the body of the message: 69|pageRedirect|owssvr|https://topsite/subsite/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx|
When I go back into the subsite, whatever change I was attempting when I get these results worked fine.
So, why does my custom master page work fine on the top level, but not on the subsites? If I switch the subsite back to the Seattle.master, the oddity goes away, so that tells me it's something to do with my custom master page and/or custom css. I did
some searching for owssvr.dll?CS=65001 and didn't see anything that helped. I checked IIS and the web.config file and don't have ASP.net tracing on that I could find.
All that the custom css is doing is increasing the size allowable for the site icon (.ms-siteicon-img) to allow for a larger icon (180px square) and it pushes the side Nav Box down a bit to make room for the larger icon and changes the font size for the
side Nave Box (#sideNavBox). Since it works on the top site, I'm not suspecting the css, but, it's not making sense to me why the custom master page wouldn't work in subsites either.
I ran into this issue earlier, it was showing up when deleting folders from the document library. I thought I'd made a boo-boo somewhere in creating the custom master page, or how I'd added it, or something (kind of a learn as I go situation here), so I
deleted the entire web app and recreated it, hoping for a clean start and a good master page and everything would be good. Guess I'm still missing something.
I swear that the ONLY change I made to the seattle html file for my custom page was to add this line just below the corev15.css line: 
So, that's my sad story. Any suggestions, other than to punt on the custom master page?
Thanks!

Team Site Master Page issue

Teamsite Master page Issue

Hi,
I have created team site. I have applied custom master page. But I am getting one error
"The DataSourceID of 'V4QuickLaunchMenu' must be the ID of a control of type IHierarchicalDataSource. A control with ID 'QuickLaunchSiteMap' could not be found."
Can you please tell me where am I wrong.
Shubho

Hi,
The error is always related to the custom navigation provider.
Did you check whether the TopNavigationDataSource has been overridden, or the delegate control exists in your Master Page?

CS3 to CS5 Upgrade - Compatibility Issues...?

Our company is thinking of upgrading to Adobe CS5 and will therefore have to upgrade hardware as well (running Power PC based Macs throughout the art and prepress departments). From what I've heard CS5 only works on Intel based Macs?
They are wanting to do a progressive roll out of new Intel-based iMacs which will obviously come pre loaded with Mac OS 10.6 - we are currently running Mac OS 10.4 on the G5 PPC Macs.
Straight away I see alarm bells ringing... only 1 Mac will be upgraded in each of the Art, Prepress and Digital Departments. There will still be 5 Macs within the area which will still be PPC based (3 in Art, 1 in Prepress and 1 in Digital).
My main question is - would you still be able to run old software (CS3, Quark 6, etc.) on a new Intel iMac so that all Macs across the departments will be able to open the same files regardless of hardware being used?
I know it defeats the purpose of upgrading to new and more powerful software and hardware - but I see no point personally in doing a progressive roll out of hardware and software if it is not going to be done across the entire range of workstations with the same department. Also a lot of outside companies that we deal with have already been upgrading to CS4 and recently CS5. The last time we upgraded hardware was in 2006...
Any replies would be helpful - personally the only way I can see an upgrade working is to apply it across all three departments. It will hit the hip pocket in one huge go but at least everyone will be singing from the same hymn sheet!
Regards, Shaun

The CS3 programs should run fine on those new Macs. Anything older would be a problem.
That said, if you're going to do this, everyone should be upgraded at the same time because of incompatibilities between versions, especially InDesign.
As for Quark, you'll need to check with them. I haven't used it in many many years.

Spry master pages

Hi guys,
Now before i begin...i am a PHP developer and i have been
building master and details pages using PHP& MYSQL for quite
some time now an i am now experimenting with SPRY...I have created
a master page in which i list database records using sprys
xmldataset and pagedview.
Now what i want to accomplish is an ability to implement a
simple "publish" | unpublish mechanism...no usually in PHP you
would reload the page, update the database and the output the
records with the updates...but i;m using spry...
so here is my scenarios
1) use the same dataset to send and load data refreshing the
list with the updated info...(problem) how does this work with
pagination? especially if i wanted to delete?
2) implement a custom xhRequestProcessor that will send
modification and recive updates that will trigger a regionupdate on
the dataset that will affect only the currentrows so that ONLY the
records that have been modified are updated...(problem) can i use a
spry feature to do this? what if i wanted to handle multiple
records can the dataset/ currentrow functions facilitate this?
what do you guys think?
can i get some advise on a course of action to take?

I'm not familiar with this Atlast/Master Pages issue cause
I'm not an asp.net user.
Perhaps someone else more familiar with this can comment. Can
you give a brief summary of what the problem is?

Everytime I copy pages from one ID CS3 doc to another, it re-applies the master page objects!!

Please Help,
This is a topic I would really like to get to the bottom of.
We have InDesign CS3 templates for creating our reports.
These templates contain around 10 different master pages with grey placeholder image boxes and text boxes with dummy text.
When we copy pages from one ID document to another, all the master page objects that were originally assigned to the pages are re-applied!!
Resulting in lots of grey dummy boxes and text boxes re-appearing on top of the page items!!
It's so annoying because we always customise the pages once we've pulled down master pages to work on, so when we copy pages across to other documents we have to apply the blank master to be able to kick out all the master objects easily. Then we need to add the page numbers and footers back onto the blank master page.
My question is, is there a way to switch this off, so when I move or copy pages from one document to another, nothing happens relating to master page objects, the pages simply just copy across as they are?
Please help! If not I may have to ask an external developer to write a script to fix this, it drives 900 of us crazy!
thanks in advance for any help.
Or am I just being ridiculous and not actually realising you can switch this off, doh!

Just a bit of further clarification on this issue (very few people really understand what's going on with master pages and overridden master page items):
When you override a master page item, the object is moved to a local page, but a connection is maintained with the original master page item. This a) allows for the override to be removed (and return the object to its original state). This also, b) allows for changes made to the original master page item (other than the changes made to the local item from the point that it was overridden) to effect the local item as well.
When the connection to the master page item cannot be maintained, the local item gets disconnected totally from the master page, and becomes a regular, run-of-the-mill page item.
In light of this, there's three ways you can end up with duplicate master items:
Reapplying a master page (or applying a new one). When you reapply a master, all overridden master page items get detached from the master, and the original mster page item appears again in its original state. Most of the time this produces unwanted duplication of objects. To fix up your page, you have two options: a) Delete the master page item, and b) copying the contents of the original to the new master page item. The disadvantage of "a" is that you end up with an item which is totally detached from the master, and changing the item on the master will have no effect on the local item. The disadavantage of "b" is that it's a lot of work...
Moving a page to a different document. When you move a page to a different document which has the same master as the one originally applied, the master in the new doc is applied, and the effects are identical to reapplying a master page (i.e. overridden objects are detached). If the applied master (i.e. a master with the same name) does not exist in the new doc, the master is transferred over to the new doc along with the page, and the connections to the master page are preserved (well, re-created actually...). The workarounds in case #1 apply here as well.
When page sides change in a document, the objects on the facing page appears.
What happens here is a bit confusing, but here's an approximate explanation:
When you apply a master to a page or spread in InDesign, what you are actually doing is applying an entire spread to an individual page. You can thing of a master spread as an overlay (or more precisely: underlay) on the page with a window cut out to the exact page dimensions.
When the page side changes that "window cut-out" shifts to show the master spread items which correspond to the position within the spread of your current page (i.e. recto or verso). All objects which exist outside the window shift out of view (but still exist!).
When an object is overridden, the position of the object is defined by its location on the local page, NOT its position on the master spread. When the page then changes sides, the object remains where it was on the page (even though the object it's connected to on the master spread moves out of the window of view). A corresponding object on the facing page of the master (if it exists) will then show in addition to the overridden one.
Now remember: contrary to the first two cases, both objects are based on master ones: one visible one and one invisible one.
Dealing with this third case requires much more care than the first two.
The obvious way to deal with this would be similar to the first two, but if you remove the local object and transfer the content to the new maste object, the invisible master object on the non-visible page was actually removed, so when the page sides change again, the object will now be connected to the now-invisible master page item, and the correct master page item will be gone!
The "correct" way to deal with this would be to transfer the content to the new master page item and remove overrides (not delete!) on the local item (which will make it disappear, because it moves back to the invisible page). Of course, when page sides change again, it becomes necessary to repeat the entire process.
If the local object gets deleted, then your master spread is missing objects with no visible indicator of the fact. This can lead to confusion when the document might be edited at some later point in time.
I believe that this complicated and un-intuitive behavior of master pages is part of the reason people tend to avoid using master page items. Documents tend to get messed up in really odd ways... It's a real shame, because extensive use of master page items has a lot of potential for streamlining workflows and saving an awful lot of time. This behavior really puts a damper on really using master pages as templates.
Getting master page items to work the way they "should" was a big part of what I was trying to accomplish with AutoFlow Pro... When the master page items are defined as such (i.e. given a unique name), AutoFlow Pro solves all three of the above issues by keeping overridden master page items connected to the master page items on the currently applied master (and when a new master is applied as well!).
(When I have a bit of spare time, I think I'll write this up on my blog with some visuals to make this easier to grasp...)

Problem with Master Pages CS5

Hello there,
I started updating a file I created several years ago in InDesign CS3. I am currently running CS5.
I have multiple master pages set up in this facing pages document. Sometimes I applied Master A to the left-hand page and Master D to the right-hand page.
The problem is, on Master A there is a rule set up that extends from the centre spine out towards the outside edge of the page. Master D does not have that rule. However, on any set of pages where I have applied Master A to the left-hand page and Master D to the right-hand page the rule is showing up, as if I have applied the Master A to the right hand page as well.
The rule on Master A starts at the centre spine EXACTLY. If I move the rule on the right-hand page slight out from the centre, the rule won't show up.
I have included some screenshots to illustrate the problem. I'd appreciate any help! Thanks!
Master A screenshot
Master D screenshot
Master A applied on the left-hand page, Master D applied on the right-hand page.

Thanks again for your response Peter.
I have 5 of these files.
I tried the export to IDML from CS5, and then opened that and it didn't work.
I tried reassigning the problem page to Master A, then changed it to D. That didn't work either.

InDesign CS5 shuts down when inserting left master page.

InDesign CS5 is shutting down whenever I attempt to insert a page from a master. I am attempting to insert a verso page before a spread. Normally it would bump the current verso to recto and the recto down to the next spread. (I need to add many blank versos in a document that has facing pages.) I have the latest update (7.0.3), and have read all previous posts on similar issues. Have tried several fixes (including deleting columns on the master pages which I have done, to no avail.) and am about ready to save all of my files back down to CS4 just so I can get the work done. Is there a remedy to this bug yet? I was hoping that 7.0.3 fixed it, (and the random elements that appear from master pages on documents that have been converted from CS4), but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Is anyone else having this trouble? Adobe? are you working on this problem? Thanks for any help.

We're seeing more reports of trouble with leagcy files in CS5 than any previous version. I'm now advocating that files you intend to convert should be exported to .inx or .idml from the original version, then open that instead of the .indd in CS5.
And if this pops up again with a file that you can't get to work with a simple export to .idml for CS5, try opening that in CS4 and re-export to .inx, then move that back to CS5. you never know.

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Links should not create any problems in Keynote. If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
Try this repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
4
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
5
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
6
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
7
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
let us know if this helped

CS5: Watch out for a master page bug

I found a pretty serious bug in CS5. I opened a catalog I created with CS4, which has master pages for page frames. I also have occasional left or right title pages which have no frames, and [none] selected as master.
Elements aligned to spread center on right or left page will sometimes appear on the spread even if the page has [none] as master, but the facing page has a master applied.
This is difficult to explain, but it seems that the new page system has messed up something and CS5 thinks the element is overlapping both master pages, even tho it's only aligned to center. If I nudge the element by 0,01 mm away from center, it will disappear from the facing page.
Check your layouts before sending to print.

How exactly would that work?
I export from CS4 and open the exported to CS5?
or
I open the CS4 document in CS5, export and re-load exported to again CS5?
