Display issues when opening InDesign CC files

I have had CC since it was released and I am having an issue. when i open a INDD file, indesign will open correctly, but the document will not display. I can see the scroll bars, and can move the mouse auround and the cursor will change like it's hovering over a frame. but not visual document. It also collapses all my panels.
It lookes like this
I am running Indesign CC, Win 7 pro 64bit
Core i7-3770 3.4ghz
16gb memory
NVIDIA gforse GT 640
500GB WD Velociraptor
Any thoughts?

  • Paragraph style issue when opening imdl (CS5) file in CS4

    Sending a CS5 file to a printer using CS4.  When they open the imdl file in CS4, it changes the paragraph style in the pull quotes. The initial character, whether a letter or a quote, appears tiny.  It looks like a paragraph style issue.  The 'quote' paragraph style in CS4 has a drop cap set on it. 
    Has anyone else had this problem or have a suggested fix? Certainly, we can check our files in CS4 before sending each time, but what a pain!

    IDML is meant as an interchange format, and is far from "the same file but in another version".
    If your printer wants a CS4 file, send them a CS4 file. Better yet, ask them why you have to send them native files anyway and what's their problem with a PDF?

  • Authentication prompt issue when opening an office file in a document library with read permission for domain users

    An user as part of the domain users tries to open an office file from a document library but he got an authentication prompt asking him to authenticate. Domain users has only access to this library and not to the whole site. This uses to work in SharePoint
    2007 without any problem but not in SharePoint 2013, we didn't have a workflow on SP2007.
    Domain users has read access to only this document library in the site, but he shouldn't get an authentication prompt since he is part of the domain users and he is not trying to modify the document, he can open the document but gets two prompts, he can't
    also see the list using explorer view since nothings appears using the explorer view.
    Now, when opening the file, we can see..Updating Workflow Status, but we don't have any workflow working on this site or library, event any feature related to workflow.
    If we go to the event viewer in the server, we find this information,
    I also checked this thread but I couldn't find this scenario.
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/91bc770b-bb70-4885-a4ad-a243edb88753/event-id-8026-workflow-soap-getworkflowdataforitem-failed-doc-library-no-workflow?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
    I also created another list with the same permissions and using other office files but got the same behavior.
    Now, we have migrated this site from SP2007 to SP2013.
    Any ideas?

    OK, I am going to throw out a lot of ideas here so hopefully they get you closer to a diagnosis. Hang on :)
    Does it happen to work for some users but not others? If so, try logging in on the "good" computer with the "bad" username. This will tell you if the problem is related to the end-user's system. Also, once the user downloads a document
    successfully can they open and work on it in Word? Also, does the document library have any custom content types associated with it or does it just use 'Document'?
    I notice that there are other folks on the web that have run into this same problem and the similarity seems to be that they are either on SharePoint 2007 or have upgraded from 2007. Did this doc library start out as a 2007 library?
    What you might want to do is this: Make a site collection from scratch in 2013 (or find one that you know was created in 2013). Choose team site (or whatever you want) for the root web and set up the security the same way you have it on the malfunctioning
    library. Now, use windows explorer to copy and paste some of the documents to the new location. Be sure you recreate any needed content types. Now test it from the troubled user's computer.
    I'm thinking there may be something that is different about the library since it was migrated through various versions and updates since 2007. I've sometimes found that there can be problems (especially with user profiles but that's a different story) with
    things that go through this evolution.

    "An unexpected error has occurred.  PDFMaker quits silently when creating a PDF" is the error.
    The dwg has been created by Archicad 15.  Dwg's created by other apps work ok.  Is there some content I need to remove from the dwg?
    I can send the file if anyone thinks they can help.

    We all can learn from this. Whenever you get stuck in a customer-service situation that goes nowhere, as soon as you become aware of the futility, get the name and employee ID of the person, then say, "I don't mean to be rude, I think we're both wasting our time. Perhaps you weren't trained for this issue, or perhaps your system isn't displaying the correct information. It doesn't matter, because I'm not getting proper customer support this way. Please ESCALATE this to your highest-level manager IMMEDIATELY. If that person isn't availabe, ESCALATE me to that person's highest-level manager. If you haven't been given the proper training, you can use this to inform your manager that you need the training. Thanks for trying to help. I appreciate it. I have copied and saved this chat session. NOW PLEASE ESCALATE THIS CASE AS I HAVE REQUESTED ABOVE. I'm waiting now... "
    The point is that you're a customer, and the company needs customers, so the individual who's failing to deliver good service needs to be identified so they can be properly trained, and so that problems in the system can also be identified, but more important is that you get the service you're entitled to.
    If you search the forum for similar questions, you'll see the kind of information that the volunteer users like yourself on the forum need to know about your system and files involved, so they can help you better.
    Good luck.

    Wow. Okay...
    I'll let the real veterans in this forum tackle your issues one after the other. But, I can tell you, all will be well.

    To be completely honest, FCPX is a RAM hog. It just is. But, RAM is relatively cheap, and the pay-off is good.
    4GB is right on the edge, IMHO. 16G is ideal.
    I wish you luck, hang in there, and standby for more help.

  • Display a default subsequence when openning a sequence file in the TestStand editor

    Is there a way to set the default sequence displayed when openning up a sequence file?
    Seems that the steps for MainSequence are typically displayed first when openning an existing sequence.
    How do I set it to display another subsequence I created when I open the sequence file.
    Or if it is displaying a subsequence other than MainSequence, how do I set it back to display MainSequence by default when reopenning the file in TestStand.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Jeff,
    Sequences are stored in sequence files in 0-N order.  The default sequence will be the 0th one.  To change the order in the sequence editor you can click on the Sequence bar above the sequences.  Keep clicking until there are no arrows on it.  This is the true order of sequences in the sequence file.  Drag the one you want visible to the top.
    See the image so you know what I'm talking about.
    Hope this helps,

  • Issues when opening EPS files

    Hi
    I'm encountering a problem when opening a EPS file in Illustrator for editing
    when I open the file and ungroup the object the stokes are all messed up and broken.
    As an example the light colour in the image below is what one of my lines looks like when imported
    if anyone knows how I might be able to stop this from happening when I open the file I would be very gratefull
    thanks

    Depending on where the file originated, this could be perfectly normal. Might be expanded strokes that break apart or something similar... anyway, impossible to know without more details or the file itself...

  • PDFs not displaying images when opened in Google Chrome.

    My PDFs are not displaying images when opened in Chrome. They do display in other browsers and when saved to the desktop. I have tested on multiple machines. Is there a problem with how they are saved? Here is a test: http://www.omnils.com/userfiles/files/Brochures/KL-003_REV_0914_APEX_CR_SPEC_SHEET_lo.pdf

    "... a known Chrome issue."  The resolution lies with Google for this - nothing you can do (other than disable the "in house" browser add-on and enable Adobe's (if you have Reader or Acrobat installed)).
    A similar issue exists with other, contemporary, browser releases.
    The "fix" is these software houses to deploy PDF viewer browser add-ons that actually comply with ISO 32000.
    Perhaps their lazy approach reflects the attitude of "Hey, Adobe will get the hit not us."
    Provide your users a feed-back mechanism; you'd be able to respond with the suggestion that they ping on the appropriate software houses to provide adequate software.
    Be well...

  • Office 2013 applications cannot be made to show the "Documents" folder when opening and saving files

    (Windows Server 2012R2 and Windows 8.1 PRO)
    We are redirecting the user's "Documents" folder to the network (using Folder Redirection). The OS hides this fact however, and most applications simply see the "Documents" folder when opening or saving files, including Office 2003.
    Office 2013 however displays the actual path, which in this case is:
    \\sever1\redirect$\username\documents
    Even if you forcibly set the "Default local file location:"  in the Options Save area to the 'Documents' folder in, say, Word, Word immediately converts the local path to the network path.
    Is there anyway to get Office 2013 to follow the virtual path? All of other apps follow it and expose the users only to "Documents".
    Thank you so much.
    Dana

    There's nothing in my FAQ concerning screen savers, so I'm unsure why you decided to take that approach. From your description, it looks like you only tried a few of the suggestions before throwing in the towel. That's fine, it's your call.
    I don't have the problems you described with 10.4.7. Usually when folks have problems after an update, these are caused by either installing an update on an already-corrutped system or they've installed third-party applications or hardware that have been rendered incompatible by the update.
    Before installing software updates, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems and gives you a fallback position in case trouble arises.
    Good luck!

  • Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7

    Hi, I ‘am a Graphic Designer and first time working in UAE Windows 7 is basically the only OS here. My PC is:
    HP Elite 7000
    Intel® Core™ i5 CPU 2.67GHz
    4GB RAM
    32-bit
    Now to the problem, not that knowledgeable in IT stuff so here goes:
    1. Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7. (You will actually see a “Not Responding” word coming out while opening and saving files, whether small or large files)
    2. Locked layers occasionally are moved accidentally.(Working on multiple layers is normal so we need to lock it specially the once on top. But there are times I still manage to select locked layers)
    3. After typing and locking the text, pressing “V” for the arrow key shortcut is still added to the text that is locked. (After typing I lock the text layer with my mouse and Press “V” to activate the arrow key… yes the arrow key is activated but the text is still typing the actual keyboard pressed)
    I’ve only use the brand new PC and installer for a month now. Not sure if this is compatibility issues or something else I’m not aware of.
    Thanks in advance to people that will reply.
    Cheers!!!

    Well I’m still wondering if it is compatibility issues because I’m also having problem with Photoshop CS5. These 3 are all bought at the same time (PC, Illustrator and Photoshop installers). The problem I’m having in Photoshop is not that too important, every time I Ctrl+O to view files, all PSD are shown in white paper like icons, no preview, and saving as well.
    Or I just purchased a corrupted or pirated installers… Adobe updates are done every time I’m prompted.

  • What happens to entities on layers when opening FH MX files in AI CS 5?

    Hi,
    when opening Freehand MX files with multiple layers - and multiple entities on these layers -, we figured out that all entities are to be found on the first layer (alphabetic sequence) in Illustrator. In other words: the entire structure of our FH document is completely destroyed and all entities are lying on only 1 layer.
    Did anyone of you encounter the same issue? And if so, did you find a solution to fix this problem?
    Many thanks for your assistance in advance!
    Greetings from sunny Germany,
    Andreas

    Monika,
    this occurs in any existing FH MX file we are opening in AI CS5. And we have hundreds of thousands of them. I don't think that our objects are somewhat "special" - just the regular types of paths, text etc.
    What I find really amazing is that all existing layers within the FH MX file are properly being migrated into the resulting .AI file. To me, this means that AI CS5 recognizes and translates the layer structure correctly. So far so good - apart from placing/leaving the existing objects on their respective layers.
    Strange, isn't it?

  • Unable to Open InDesign CC files with InDesign 6

    I've upraged InDesign 6 to the 8,02 level and still unable to Open INDesign CC files (which were upgraded to CC8). Is there a solution? An upgrade to IND6?

    This is only an option if you actually have access to CC. I ended up installing CC on my machine along with CS6 when we started receiving CC files from our customers.  Until I did that I had to call clients and ask them to resave their files to IDML and resend them.
    As far as I know there is no way to upgrade CS6 to a point that you can open CC files with it.

  • Feh showing black images when opening certain .bmp files

    Hi all,
    I've been using feh (I'm using imagemagick too) from quite a bit and today I noticed it shows plain black images when opening certain .bmp files, those files are obtained from a Java WebService and they may not be correcty formed, still firefox can correctly visualize them. Would it be possible to make feh correctly display them ?

    I've set Photoshop to ask me if there's a conflict with embedded color schemes but it doesn't ask when opening this file. So I presume it doesn't use any specific profile. (Can I check this directly somehow?)
    EDIT: I've now set to ask if there is no profile embedded and Photoshop now says that the image has no embedded RGB profile.
    My color profile within Photoshop is set to sRGB which is the default for my display.
    When I try switching to other RGB profiles in the list, the colors change but the distortions are still there no matter which profile I choose.

  • When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?

    When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?

    Usually the Window menu allows you to adjust window placement in Microsoft Office products.
    If not, connect an external display or projector and change the resolution to the maximum.   
    Save the document with the window residing on the main screen with the Dock.
    That will force it to open on the main screen in the future.
