Hyperlinks in epubs? Indesign CC 2014

Hi everyone,
Apologies if this has been asked before, but I have search and can't seem to find an answer. I have created an ePub for iBooks/iPad. Inserted hyperlinks, tests ok in the dialog box, but doesn't work at all on the iPad. I know the link works as I printed the book to PDF and it worked. I am using the Fixed Layout.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Vic

Hi Steve, I am a regular subscriber to Creative Cloud and have updated all apps. My version of Adobe InDesign does show 2014.1 under About InDesign.
Believe it or not, one of the more helpful videos out in Adobe TV land showed interactive under the Object menu:
See 5:30 on this page: https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/how-to/interactivity-fixed-layout-epub.html?set=indesign- -key-techniques--epub-fixed-layout I finally found the answer here at Adobe forums (monica). Now I have it installed in the panel on the right.
I'm on an iMac and use all Apple products. I've tossed Windows to the wind.
Thank you so much for your support.
Mary

Unable to find the "EPUB Interactivity Preview panel" in InDesign CC 2014?

I can´t find the "EPUB Interactivity Preview panel" in InDesign CC 2014? Or the EPUB workspace?

Moved to InDesign EPUB forum.
Are you sure you've installed the CC2014.1 update? My guess is that you have not.
Check the Creative Cloud desktop app for updates.

InDesign CC 2014 and FXL EPUBs

Hi all,
I've been testing the new EPUB 3 Fixed Layout export feature in InDesign CC 2014 and it looks terrific!
But... I've been analyzing the HTML/CSS it generates. Does anyone els did so also? If so, what are your impressions? I am curious about that...
Cheers,
Ignacio

InDesign CC 2014 tryout has only some new features and some others are old: strangest thing ever.

Hi everyone, I have installed a tryout on InDesign CC 2014 today to work on epubs. The app is having all sort of problems. It crashed while making packages. I resetted the prefs and this was fixed.
But the most annoying and strange things are the new features: some are showing (like the export fixed layout epub option), others are not (interactivity menu is exactly the old one, bookmarks options in export panel are not showing).
I had uninstalled it and installed again. It is still not working. I work on an iMac with sys 10.9.5 (Yosemite).
I need to keep the old version running for compatibility issues. I can't delete it.
I am stuck: any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

For example: I have the "export fixed layout epub" (which I do not have in InDesign CC) , but I do not have the bookmarks option in the export panel. I still see SWF preview, but not the epub interactivity menu under -> view -> interactivity. To be more precise: I am following a Lynda.com course about epub: I'm not guessing what to look for or what button to click. I have to follow very careful instruction step-by-step that I can't follow because the program miss some parts.
I attach an image to better explain. It's in italian, but if you just count the options you will see that one is missing: the bookmark (and last) one.

Hi,
I am trying to compile sample project of Indesign CC 2014 using VC++ 2013. but it is showing me following error:

Thanks in advance,

You probably need to post this over in the InDesign SDK forum, but I'm not sure that's even the right place. Can you explain in plain language what this "project" is?

Fehlermeldung: "Adobe InDesign CC 2014 funktioniert nicht mehr"

Hallo zusammen.
Ich bekomme seit heute eine Fehlermeldung wenn ich InDesign öffnen will. Der Wortlaut ist: "Adobe InDesign CC 2014 funktioniert nicht mehr"
Dann kann ich nur noch das Fenster schliessen und das war es. Bei PS und Ai gibt es keinerlei Probleme.
Ich hab schon die Fehlersuche bei Adobe in Anspruch genommen und z.B. nicht funktionierende Schriften entfernt, das Programm als Admin versucht zu starten und auch in Creativ Cloud abgemeldet und wieder angemeldet. Das Problem ist weiterhin da.
Woran kann es nur liegen?

Ja, deinstalliert und neu installiert war auch eine der ersten Massnahmen.

I am working on a file I created in Indesign CC 2014 and when I try to rearrange pages in the Pages menu or try to package the file, I get the spinning wheel for 20 mins. then it crashes. What should I do?

Can anyone help? I started a 24 page document in Indesign CC 2014 and have been using the file off of a dropbox acct on my two machines (desktop and macbook pro). I need to rearrange some of the pages but when I try to drag and drop the pages in the Pages menu, I get the ominous spinning wheel...for about 20 mins at times. then It will just crash. The document doesn't have a tone of images. I've also tried to collect and package the file but get the same thing.
What should I do?? Help!

try the script at Adobe Community: InDesign 6 is crashing when attempting to open a particular document. All others are opening OK.
I'd also try moving the pages to a new file, though I suspect that will crash too. Divide and conquer might work -- tray one of your operations on half the document at a time, then repeat by dividing any piece that fails, and so on, until you isolate a page, then use the same method to isolate an object (though it's possible you have a corrupt page).

How to make an index in InDesign CC 2014.1 using a topics list?

Hi all,
I have read the long help document on how to make an index in InDesign CC 2014.1 using a topics list, and still can't work out what to do.
I have done a 548 page book, using a document for each chapter, and a book file to put them all together in the right order.
I now need to make an index at the back, as the author has many quotes throughout the book at the start of each chapter and section.
I have a list of those people quoted and want to upload this list and get the index feature in InDesign to find all instances of the name occurring in the entire book.
After reading the help document I still cannot work out how to do this.
My questions are:
1. Do you have to use an InDesign document as a source for the list of topics? If so, should the document be added to the book file or outside it?
It seems a bit recursive to have the list of topics in an ID document that is in the book file.
2. Once you have uploaded the topics into the Index feature, how do you get it to look for all instances of that 'topic' througout the entire book? I can't figure that out from the help documents. What do I select? Do I do it from the Index panel? Do I highlight the text in the source document? Not sure how to do this...
3. I need the names to list surname first of the quoted authors in the index. This command seems to be different between various editions of ID. For ID CC 2014.1 is it ctrl+alt+shift+]
4. To make the surname show first, what do I highlight? The topic? and then do ctrl+alt+shift+] and select find all as well? Or do I have to just go through the text and manually do this and ditch the idea of uploading topics first?
I am confused as you can see and any help with this is appreciated.

Sorry 007, I really thought you were posting a trick question as on the OCP tests.
Anyway, as Justin mentioned, if you have an index on ename, it may be used when doing a comparison predicate statement with the ename value.
What it depends on are several other things: stats, how many rows in the table, use of an index hint, etc.
Rather than questioning the group on this, why not just turn on autotrace and run the query for the different scenarios.
The output will show you if it used the index, number of rows returned, blocks read, etc.
SQL> create table emp (ename varchar2(40));
Table created.
SQL> insert into emp select username from sys.dba_users;
25 rows created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> set autotrace on
SQL> select * from emp where ename != 'SYSTEM';

Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
   1 - filter("ENAME"<>'SYSTEM')As you can see, the above used an index, even though there were only 25 rows in the table.
You can test each of your scenarios, one by one, including use of a hint.

Problems importing images or text via "place" in inDesign CC 2014

I just installed inDesign CC 2014 on my new iMac. I have a major problem when trying to "place" objects/text files in a document. It takes 30 seconds to 2 minutes or more to populate each and every window on the path to the file I need. What is this? Is this a known issue?

I posted this on the forum page thread:
To "populate each window" : after hitting the "place" command keys (cmd+d) on the mac, the window that opens is EMPTY of files and folders. The delay is several minutes now, also on every subsequent window down the path to the actual file that I want to import. Meanwhile, these files are immediately visible in the finder windows when clicking on the desktop. My OX is Yosemite 10.10.1. This lag happens before getting to the stage of seeing the miniature in the mouse pointer.
Is this a known issue in the new CC inDesign 2014? Is Adobe aware of it?

Adobe InDesign CC 2014 has stopped working

So...I am trying to help our Marketing Manager with some problems with Adobe InDesign CC 2014. On startup of the program, more often than not it comes up with:
Adobe InDesign CC 2014 has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Windows doesn't do anything.
We have tried refreshing the preference folders as dictated by other members. No joy. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the whole Adobe suite (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator).
On occasion, InDesign does start up and there is a problem with text boxes. When a text box is moved or resized, copied, the text in the box disappears. It will only return if you select the text tool and hover over the box. It is not to do with snapping to grid lines, etc.
Can someone please advise on what we should do?

Infuriating 'Adobe InDesign CC 2014 has stopped working error' has lost me a day. Just got dumped by chat support...

Hi All,
I've taken a few deep breaths before writing this to try and avoid a hugely frustrated rant.
To summarise; since early this morning my previously healthy version of InDesign CC 2014 has been unable to open, crashing at the 'Executing startup services...' stage with the error message 'Adobe InDesign CC 2014 has stopped working'. I worked on it all day yesterday and use it extensively every day more or less, this problem came out of nowhere overnight. I didn't do any kind of system update in the interim period. I'm using a HP Envy dv7 Notebook PC running Windows 8.
I tried as much as I could based on my own very limited knowledge and some forum searching. I re-installed the software. Did that again using the Adobe CC cleaner .exe file in between un-install and re-install. I uninstalled older versions of the software (which all worked fine - as does the rest of the Creative Suite software I have installed. I deleted extensions. None of this helped.
I then went looking for Adobe support and got a guy via Adobe's chat controlling my PC from afar and trying some much deeper technical stuff. After two hours he said that it was an OS issue, sorry... after a bit of dismayed pleading he said OK, I'll try one more thing and made me a new user with administration power, told me to login in to that account and try again. I did, it worked! But it's still broken on my main account and he disconnected in the few minutes I was gone and I now seem to be frozen out of chat help. HELP!
What does this mean? All CS/CC software seems to be working fine on my normal account apart from InDesign CC 2014. I have a huge file, now very close to being overdue, which I was working on in 2014 CC and can't be opened by older versions. The software works on this other account - so I guess I can work there short term. But how do I get it fixed on my main account?
Hopefully someone out there has the answer?
Thanks!
Luke

First, see Replace Your Preferences and do it for the original account.
If that fails to solve the problem, rename the two Adobe folders that contain the prefs in the user profile for that account and copy the folders from the new account where it works. You want to be sure you copy the folders, rather than merge the contents, so you must rename the old folders first.

You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CC 2014" because it is not responding.

For some reason InDesign has decided to stop responding. Acts like it wants to launch but then does nothing. When I try to launch it from the Finder rather than the Dock, I receive this message:
You can’t open the application “Adobe InDesign CC 2014” because it is not responding.
Please advise.

Wild guess here, but the installers are known to fail to set the correct permissions on the preference folders. See Cant launch new inDesign CC | Adobe Community and substitute Version 10 where you see Version 9.

InDesign CC 2014 won't download or install

I'm running OS X 10.6.8 (Mountain Lion?) on a 2011 17" MacBook Pro. I have the Design Standard CC subscription.
I'm getting InDesign CC 2014 Mac files from customers, and they won't open in InDesign CC.
I would install InDesign CC 2014, but don't see a Mac installer in the Adobe Application Manager. (It was automatically pushed and installed to my PC a couple of months ago.)
I suspect I need to upgrade my OS, but I've read that Yosemite is an Adobe-killer, so I'm not doing that!
Mavericks is supposed to be good for Adobe products, but I can't find an installer. Apparently it's no longer available in the Mac App store.
I have a work-around for now, but I can't be the only one with this problem!
We have only two Macs here in my office, both still running Mountain Lion.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Thanks, but I guess I was unclear.
I do have permission to install Apps. I have CC for Teams, I am the administrator.
My issue is that Indesign CC 2014 does not show up on my list of applications in the Application Manager on my Mac.
I also have CC on my PC. InDesign CC 2014 was automatically pushed to the App Manager, I installed it awhile back on my PC. But on my Mac, it's not even available to me.
I've researched it some, and it looks like InDD CC 2014 won't run in Mountain Lion (10.6.8) which would explain why it doesn't show up. Minimum specs = Mac OS X v10.7, v10.8, v10.9, or v10.10, according to Adobe. And I can't find a Mavericks (10.9) installer anywhere. And Yosemite is too new, I'm not going to beta test that.
