Indesign CC 2014 crashes when printing to Fiery server

This is to remind Adobe that issues printing to Fiery print servers from Indesign CC 2014 (10.0 or 10.1) on Mac have not been resolved.
A patch has been provided here: InDesign & Illustrator | Crash while printing to Fiery RIP | MacOS --- however, the problem persists after patching. I should note that the fix at that link only pertains to Indesign 10.0. If you download Indesign 2014 from Creative Cloud you would, at this time, receive 10.1. That script will break 10.1 completely. There is no fix for 10.1.
The original thread for this discussion is here: Indesign CC 2014 crashes when printing It's marked 'Answered' and methinks the ongoing conversation there has been over-looked.
I am bumping this topic to keep the conversation fresh. If anyone else has found solutions to printing to Fiery from Indesign 10.x either by updating Fiery directly or with additional scripts or workarounds, please share them here.
I could publish one of my 10.1 crash logs if I could be advised which pieces are most important, or how to post the unabridged without spamming the forum.
That's the constructive bit. Here's my rant...
After speaking to Adobe on the phone, they tell me this isn't resolved yet because it affects only a small subset of people. I called some peers at other agencies across my region and learned they all use Indesign with Fiery servers. We are not an isolated few! (those fortunate individuals I spoke to are still using CS6 -- and I received some jovial ribbing for having my on-going CC subscription.) I have a lot of printing to do on the Fiery now that these projects are finishing, but i'm held up while down-saving these projects to be used in CC (9.x). Its frustrating, its time-consuming, and its simply unacceptable to CC subscribers as we move in to 2015. I urge Adobe to work with EFI to solve this problem once and for all.

Indesign CC 2014 crashes when printing

Print goes though but crashes every time on multiple files

Same problem here, crashes when finishing printing process, never happened before.
And no - it's not the driver or Mavericks - It functioned without problems before installing CC 2014,
except the rising amount of bugs in Indesign...

Photoshop CC 2014 and Indesign CC 2014 crash when printing

Ever since I installed the CC 2014 versions of Indesign and Photoshop, I am absolutely incapable of printing. As soon as the print dialog comes up, the programs crash. (I don't have this issue with Illustrator CC 2014.) It's quite frustrating. Fortunately, I still have "regular' CC on my computer, so I can print Photoshop files from there. Indesign is a little more problematic because they keep changing the file structure, so i've basically abandoned CC 2014 until the printing issue is solved.
I run Windows 8.1 x64.
Has anyone else encountered this, and if so, how did you fix it (if at all). I can't seem to find any straightforward fixes when I do search, only others with comparable issues. Thanks.

I had the trial version for a month and everything worked fine but now since I've purchased a subscription I am experiencing the same situation with Photoshop CC 2014 and have not been able to find a solution.

InDesign CC 2014 crashes when creating alternative layouts

InDesign CC 2014 crashes when creating alternative layouts. I successfully created alternative layouts in 3 documents, now I cannot create any at all, it just crashes the program.

I just taught a class using Alternative Layouts in InDesign CC 2014 without crashing.
Start by telling us what kind of computer and operating system you're running. Are you having any other problems in InDesign CC 2014? Have you try restoring your preferences?

InDesign CC 2014 crash when saving

I have a random issue where InDesign CC 2014.2 crashes randomly, but I can trigger it regularly when trying to Save to network. I've researched the error report Apple gives me, but there are no forums or solves that have worked. I've tried reinstalling CC, uninstalling only InDesign CC 2014, trashing my preferences, I even blanked the machine and loaded all my stuff back onto it and it still crashes. I've attached the link to the pastebin with the raw dump file. Please help, Adobe!

Are you saving across a network? It looks like it might be losing the connection.

Indesign CC 2014 crashes when duplicated pages within pages panel

running InDesign CC 2014 - mavericks 10.9.3. If I have content on say page one and within the pages panel I click and drag page one to the new page icon (something I do all the time to duplicate a page and it's content) it crashes InDesign. This is happening when I have copy pasted gradient mesh objects from illustrator to indesign. they paste in just fine, and I can copy paste those objects around, but not the whole page within the page panel

Hello march67,
Thanks for the test file. We could reproduce the crash.
We've identified the reason for the crash in your file. The problematic object is the RSS feed icon at the top right of the spread.
We've determined a fix for the crash and it should be available to all users in one of the upcoming patches. In the meanwhile, to prevent the crash, you could use the following workaround : Cut this object onto the clipboard. Duplicate the spread. Then paste the icon back in its place (Edit > Paste in Place).
Sorry for the trouble.
Thanks,

InDesign CC 2014 crashing when I try to update the links

InDesign CC 2014 isn't responding after I updated the links.
I replaced InDesign preferences, moved the missing links into the right file (instead of relinking). The problem is still there and Indesign still not responding. I had to press CMD+ALT+ESC to force to quit. Never had problems when I used InDesign CC and I'm experiencing a lot of trouble since I updated to CC 2014 version.
I'm working on MAC.
Any clue how to solve this?

Hi Laneway,
I can't reproduce that issue. Can we get more info? FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?
Thanks,

InDesign CC 2014 - crash when using links

This issue started happening right after I updated to the CC 2014 version. I am using a Windows 7. I thought it was a memory issue so I make sure to have as little browser/program activity as possible - I noticed it happened more frequently if I was streaming music for example. I'm not sure if that is the problem though, because it just happened again and I didn't have much activity going on. I saved my illustrator documents, closed all the .ai files, then went into InDesign (with only 1 doc open) and updated a link that I changed, then I tried to re-link an image to a new file, was able to browse for the file, but once I clicked open I got the same error.
"InDesign has encountered a problem..." It tries to figure it out, but it doesn't, I do not even have an error code, and then I'm forced to close the program. Fortunately my document is restored in its last state.
Sometimes it crashes before I can browse for a file. Sometimes is happens when I go to Place a new file. Sometimes it happens when I update a link, or even just click on a link.
Again, I have been using InDesign CC for months without this crashing issue, so I'm pretty sure its a bug with the 2014 release.
Please fix it soon!! It's getting really annoying to re-open the program multiple times in one sitting!

Not that I am aware of. The only special font plug-in/program I know about is TypeKit, and I've rarely used it.
As for other programs, I can't think of any non-adobe plugin that might have an impact on Adobe.
Java? Wacom Tablet Plugin? I haven't used my tablet in weeks though.
I'm working on a Dell. The only other programs I had open at the time were Microsoft Outlook, and Gmail in my Chrome Browser.

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).

InDesign CS6: crashes when printing or making pdfs. Going mad! Help?

Similar to another recent post, I'm working on a new MacBook Pro, with new CS6 software. No matter what I try, it crashes instantly when I go to print or make a pdf. Is it a font problem? Mine were managed at first by FontBook and now by Extensis Suitcase 4, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. How have others gotten around this problem? (I'm in a lucky position in that there are no old fonts or old bits of software on the machine -- but it's still crashing! Arrgh!) Thanks if any ideas.

I was having this problem too, and it ended up being a font issue in an old graphic (converted the font to outlines in illustrator and then saved as .eps, unchecking the "embed fonts" checkbox). But now my coworker (who just upgraded to CS6) is having the same problem, and her image doesn't have any fonts in it. We are using PCs.
No resolution here yet.
One thing you might try -
InDesign would also crash when we try to copy the problematic image. So if you aren't sure which image is causing the problem, you can narrow it down by trying to copy each image until InDesign crashes. Then you can look further at that image and see if there are problems with it.
We're still trying to resolve this here, so very interested in any updates.

How do I get inDesign to quit crashing when I try to open a damaged document?

Alright, I'm in a bit of a pinch and behind on deadline because of something completely random and out of the blue happening with inDesign. Here's what happened:
I was working on a magazine layout and printed out a PDF draft. The draft looked normal. I saved, shut my computer, walked away, and came back 30 minutes later to find that 9 pages had gone almost completely blank - even the locked layers were gone. I checked the layers and they were still locked. I thought my content had gotten erased somehow. Then I looked again and saw an overseer text symbol in the middle of one of the spreads. I clicked it and was able to enlarge it somewhat. Doing this gave me the spinning color wheel of doom (I have a Mac running off of Maverick now), and every little zoom and mouse movement gave this result that lasted about 3 minutes at a time. I tried saving again (got the spinning color wheel of doom), then shut down inDesign, and tried again. Same thing happened, only this time I got an automatic recovery notice when it opened. Everything else looked normal. I noticed that the content that had been squished was actually also at a skewed angle as well, like it had been rotated at some strange 3D plane. The story board would also expand to 10 times the normal size every time I tried to move the skewed, overset content. I shut everything down again and restarted my computer. Only this time, whenever I tried to open the problematic document, it would give me the auto recovery request, then promptly crash when I clicked "Yes" for auto recover. I tried multiple times now to open the document, thinking maybe I could just wipe those pages and start over again, but it crashes every time.
Nothing like this has ever happened to me before. I have no idea how this happened, and now it seems like I'm going to loose the entire document, about 40 hours of work. As far as I know, nobody else was near my computer in the 30 minutes it took me to shut it and open it back up again.
Help!
Can anybody shed some light onto this situation? Honestly, I'd be happy to just be able to open the document again so I can erase those problem pages and re-do them... I took screen shots of what inDesign was doing before it crashed:
Here you can see that the "P" in the upper left is all twisted, the same way my content is:
This is a zoomed-out image of how big the storyboard would become when I tried to tweak that overset text/ content...

You can try opening the file "as a copy" from the open dialog. You can also try the blind export to .idml: Adobe Community: InDesign 6 is crashing when attempting to open a particular document. All others are opening OK.
and there's a tool for Windows you can try, if you have access to a windows machine: INDDRecovery — a program for restoring corrupted InDesign documents
After that, it's a question of how much money you want to throw at it. Markzware.com has a paid recovery service that will probably work.

After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file.

After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file. HELP!!!

Howdy,
Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
You might wish to read:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
- You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
- Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
- Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
- Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:

InDesign (CC 2014) crashing every time I try to run a spell check

InDesign (CC 2014) crashing every time I try to run a spell check, I was wondering if anybody has had this before. I'm am also experiencing a delayed response, specially when I try to type, I get the colour wheel for about 5 to 8 seconds every time I click on a text box. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Where are you saving?
What exactly is in the file?
What exactly is in the pattern?
