I´m a student, working with CS3 indesign, it won´t install again completely

I´m a student, working with indesign CS3- it won´t
install again completely and all other adobe programs are not willing
to work (f.e. reader). What can I do?

Hi Mylenium
     After updating the adobe license didn´t work any longer for the
second time, since I bought. First time CS3 cleaning tool was the
solution. But this time it is not possible just to open the
CS3cleaning tool document(PDF)- not with adobe reader, also not with
foxit for example. I removed all adobe stuff to install again, but
installation doesn´t work for the important components- photoshop
etc. At first also adobe reader didn´t work (System told me, to
install photoshop before:-) But after some deinstallation and
reinstallation now just the new downloaded adobe reader X happily
works again. Only solution to reinstall the whole system?? (medion
professional PC, windows vista 5,0 - 2 GB, 32 Bit)
     Thank you for help

[js] CS Scripting not working with CS3

Hello,
We had a JavaScript made for us that enabled the user to exchange certain text within a document.
This script works fine with CS (Ver.3.0.1) but gives a JavaScript Error - #55, Error String: Object does not support the property or method 'findPreferences' with CS3 (Ver.5.0)
I have tried 'tinkering' around with the scripting - but I have zero experience with JavaScript and have not found a solution.
Additionally the people that wrote the initial script are not available.
I have bought several books but they all seem like alien-language to me
Below is the section of origional CS scripting.
Can anyone point out to me WHY this script does not work with CS3?
And WHERE I should start looking - changing?
Thanks in advance for your help and guidence.
Lee
// Exchange the text
function actProjectData(oneDoc, oneResult){
app.findPreferences = null; app.changePreferences = null;
oneDoc.search(undefined, true, true, oneResult[0],{appliedCharacterStyle:oneDoc.characterStyles.item(myProjectTitleCharStyleNa me)}, undefined);
oneDoc.search(undefined, true, true, oneResult[1],{appliedCharacterStyle:oneDoc.characterStyles.item(myOfferNoCharStyleName)}, undefined);
oneDoc.search(undefined, true, true, oneResult[2],{appliedCharacterStyle:oneDoc.characterStyles.item(myOfferDateCharStyleName) }, undefined);
app.findPreferences = null; app.changePreferences = null;

> Come to think of it, maybe it's easier to create a folder "Version 4.0 Scripts" under your scripts folder and place your CS script in there. Maybe that will do the trick. Should have thought of that earlier.
Tried this, but it didn't seem to do anything... But certainly a 'try' worth.
Currently playing around with the:
> app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "a";
app.changeTextPreferences.changeTo = "b";
oneDoc.changeText();
I've got to the point where I have no error messages :-) Now I'm really flying.....
Fact is - not all text and also the wrong text is replaced!!!
I'm currently playing with the script to try and replace
all texts with a given paragraph style with the entered text...
Not proving to be simple for me, but I'm learning rather a lot!
Now that doesn't sound very clear when I go back and read it!
What I want to say is:
Each page of the document has the project name, No & Date on it (each having their own paragraph style)
so
With this script it asks you the Project name, No. and Date and then goes
through the whole document and replaces all instants of those texts with specific paragraph styles with the newly 'entered' text.
Proving to be a little mountain for me - Thought it would only be a hill!

HELP needed in working with established InDesign catalog

I have just inherited the job of up keep and editing of our catalog. The entire catalog is on InDesign cs5. I have never worked with any InDesign programs. It looks to me like the entire thing was done in individual text boxes, I am at a loss as to were to begin, can anyone recommend a tutorial to get me started. I have looked and did not find what I needed.

I like the Visual Quickstart Guides to get to know a new program - lots of pics, captions and tips - besides wordy explanations.
Also indesignsecrets.com for tips once you know the program better - and their pdf magazine - they are quite happy to point out bugs and workarounds. I always find Adobe resources hide the shortcomings and tell you everything is perfect - until the next version of the software where they tell you it wasn't but have now fixed it!
(I have no ties to the above)
This forum seems the most active (and helpful) for sorting individual problems.

What version of lightroom works with CS3?

What version of Lightroom works with Photoshop CS3?

They are different programs, so I imagine they all work with CS3. I don't use Lightroom, but I think Lightroom's ability to interface with Photoshop has evolved over the different versions, but I can't think how the Photoshop version would affect that, so the later the Lightroom version, the better.
BTW Lightroom 6 is rumoured to be coming very soon.

Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1

Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1. I have downloaded the patch, it is installed but the old version is this there in elements. Thanks, esther

OK I think the problem is probably related to the platform swap and you may need your account re-set. Only Adobe staff can do that. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number and previous case number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.

I am having problems with the InDesign it won't download it keeps saying extract when its about 30% then it says failed. How can i get it to download all the way?

I am having problems with the InDesign it won't download it keeps saying extract when its about 30% then it says failed. How can i get it to download all the way?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Using a plugin that only works with CS3 (how to downgrade CS4 to CS3)

I work for a company that sells HP Indigo Presses
HP have produced a plugin called Smartstream Designer which is used to create varible data jobs for the press
Unfortunately at the moment, this plugin only works with Indesign CS3
I have a number of customers who have recently purchased new Apple macintosh computers and the latest version of Indesign (ie CS4)
(1) Is there any way for them to downgrade their copy of Indesign so they can use this plugin
At some time in the future the plugin will be updated to work with CS4 and when that happens they will need to upgrade
(2) will there be any problem performing this upgrade at a later date?
thanks for your help

The only way to downgrade would be to find a CS3 license on the open market, an iffy proposition as authorized resellers no longer have older versions available. The CS4 license would still be fine in the future.

Why cant i work with CS3 programs exept flash?

hi all here - i am new
I tried captivate, because I thougt it would be a tool to
make screen recordings for e-learning. Like to explain people how
to use a software or a backoffice.
But I am getting frustrated now.
I cannot export anything except flash. But I dont wann use
flash. What for?
I am not doing Powerpoint crab.
I bought the "master collection CS3" and didn´t find a
program to make screen recordings.
So I was searching for a software compatible to my CS3 suite.
But I cannot work with those files in Soundbooth, Premiere
Pro of after effects.
I would like to clean the sound and convert the file in
different file formats with the media encoder.
So for what do I really need Captivate if it doesn´t
work together with the other programs?
Is there annother software from Adobe to help me?

Hi Pedro Hofmann and welcome to our community
As you have seen, Captivate is not part of the CS3 suite. It
IS however, part of a different suite. One that is known as
the "Technical Communication Suite" or TCS. That particular suite
contains Framemaker, Acrobat Pro 3D, Captivate and RoboHelp.
Captivate does indeed create e-learning. However, it is a
slide based system similar to PowerPoint. But the end result is
something that is often referred to as a "movie". If you record in
Demonstration mode, it is played back without pausing and with
mouse movements and whatnot. The illusion is that you end up with a
full motion video.
Yes, the output is Flash based. In other words, it relies on
the Flash Player (in the web Browser typically) to present your
output to the user. This is largely because the Flash Player is so
pervasive and has deep penetration. Something like 98-99% of the
browsers in use are "Flash Capable". This is a good thing, as it
means that you don't have too many concerns with ensuring a
specific player or viewer is installed.
Captivate
can be exported to Flash for further or more detailed
tweaking. But it's not yet perfect. One may wonder why it's not
"quite there yet". And for those folks, it's good to keep in mind
that Adobe didn't create Captivate and hasn't had it all that long.
Adobe got Captivate when they acquired Macromedia. And Macromedia
only had it a very short time. They acquired it from eHelp
corporation. And eHelp corporation acquired it from the original
owners and creators. That company was Nexus Concepts.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

Default Mail app not working with yahoo mail. Won't update.

Default Maill app not working with Yahoo Mail.
It stopped working the other day. I tried everything but it wouldn't update new mail. The yahoo account itself is fine because I can see new mail on Yahoo or a yahoo app.
I tried deleting the account and putting it back on, but now it has 0 mail in any part of it. Nothing has synced.
What do I do?
iPad 2 latest OS.

A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
On the iPhone, tap Settings.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
Tap Add Account.
Tap Other.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
Click Next.
Ensure IMAP is selected.
Enter the following incoming mail server information:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL: Yes
Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail.
Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
Tap Next.
The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
That’s all!

PSE 6 - fixed the organiser to work with raw now editor won't load

Could use some pointers - tech savvy but no expert :-)
Couldn't get the organiser to work with CR2 files from the canon 50D. Download camera raw 5.4 plug-in. Deleted old version to remove the two entries in plug-in issue. Organiser seems to work as expected - except for the odd hang. When I now try to load the editor I get 'file not found'. Which file ?

Ok so I worked out how to get into recovery mode. Turns out I was doing it wrong! I used an external USB drive to access recovery mode.
I ran disk utility which identified and fixed some errors on the HD. I thought this might solve the problem but when I restarted the same problem occurred. I then restored my time machine backup which thankfully worked.
I tried installing mavericks again! Upon restarting and completing the install, I got the message 'OSX has been installed. Your computer will now restart'. After the countdown had finished I got the beach ball which span eternally again, just like last time. After about 10 mins I did a hard reset and again OSX won't load.
Lame...

I have downloaded MAMP for Mac and want to use it for working with Wordpress. I had mysql installed before this and would like to uninstall it and use MAMP. It was easy to turn off Apache and PHP but don't know how to uninstall mysql. Please help!!

I have downloaded MAMP for Mac and want to use it for working with Wordpress. I'm on an Imac with Maverick OS 10.9. I had mysql installed before this and would like to uninstall it and use MAMP. It was easy to turn off Apache and PHP but don't know how to uninstall mysql. Please help!!

It depends on how you installed it. You have to shutdown the MySQL service first. If you used the standard, but obsolete Startup Item, you can do that with the Startup Item. If you created a launchd script, you can do it with launchctl. Once MySQL is no longer running, you can delete the Startup Item or launchd script and the rest of MySQL.

Indesign CS5 won't install

Background:
I had been using InDesign CS5 for a couple years on my Win7 Ultimate x64 machine.   A year and a half ago, I reloaded the OS and didn't reinstall InDesign as I didn't need it then. It's used for a once-yearly project near year-end. My InDesign CS5 is the Pagemaker upgrade, - the install is from the download file gotten via the download manager when licensed from Adobe in 2010. I think it had updated to CS5.5 during that period but I don't have any files to install CS5.5,
Problem:
Tried to re-install it now, and the installer fails. It accepts the serial number but does not complete: ***I've attached the complete list of error messages at the end of this post. I've tried the install multiple times - initially with all the InDesign bells and whistles, then reboot and retried, and then again after rebooting a second time with none of the InDesign extensions chosen (thinking maybe one of those might be the cause) but no changes in symptoms.
Discussion:
I am thinking it is either something fundamental with InDesign CS5 conflicting with some Win7 update since the time when InDesign CS5 worked, or an interaction with the other Adobe products.
Other Adobe products on the machine:
Added after the time InDesign had worked
      Lightroom 3.6, Lightroom 5.7, and Adobe DNG converter.
Had been on, back when it all worked fine:
Photoshop CS5, Dreamweaver CS3, Acrobat 8 Standard and Adobe Reader XI. Helper apps are: Bridge CS3 and CS5, Extension Manager CS3 and CS5, Extendscript Toolkit 2 and CS5 and Device Central CS3 and CS5.
Any help and suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry I didn't get back with you. Thanks for your help. I tried using compatibility mode - no change. Needed to then go through your CCleaner process. Uninstalled everything, did the CCleaner and then reinstalled in release order (most recent versions last).   At that point, all the programs worked fine but would not update. To get update working again, needed to find the link to the current standalone Application Manager exe file. Ran that and now all is right as rain.
Thanks again.
