Indesign CS5 and CS5.5 crash on new document / Lion 10.7

Hello!
In our agency we encountered a problem since upgrading to OS X Lion 10.7. Both our Indesign CS5 and CS5.5 keep crashing on us whetver we open an existing document or create a new one. We tried to clean-up our installations, deleted both, installed just CS5 and/ CS5.5 - trashed preferences etc. pp. Nothing worked.
Indesign opens like it should - but the moment we create a document it just hangs with the spinning ball - does anyone else can recreate the issue? We use no plugins in indesign only the app "Fontcase" from the Appstore to maintain our collection of fonts.. but we even tried to deactivate this app to see if it helps - no success.
We currently cant set up the system new since it is time consuming and just our last choice.. is there some other way to find the problem? We also never see the adobe crash-reporter.. not even after 10-15 minutes as stated in the lion os x issue list.
Thanks!

Ah, this is easy.
You have a problem with the SING module, see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408816.html.

InDesign CS5.5 freezing upon opening new document Lion 10.7.3?

Hi there,
When launching CS5.5 InDesign, I select 'New document'. After it is setup (1-2 seconds), it freezes and InDesign is non functional and you have to force quit.
My console log states:
CFURLCreateWithBytes was passed these invalid URLBytes: ‘/Applications/Adobe InDesign CS5.5/Adobe InDesign CS5.5.app/Contents/Frameworks’ (a file system path instead of an URL string). The URL created will not work with most file URL functions. CFURLCreateFromFileSystemRepresentation should be used instead.
The freeze occurs in the admin account and logged in domain user.
I have tried updating InDesign- nothing.
Uninstalling through Adobe uninstaller and reinstalling- nothing.
Not using plugins. We are using Extensis Universal Type Client but I wuit it and turned off the Core to see if that helps- nothing.
Ive repair permissions- nothing
Rebooted- nothing
I ended up upgrading to CS6 and had no problems. I would like to resolve this CS5.5 issue though. Any help?

I copied Mac OS: [Startup Disk]/Library/Applications Support/Adobe/SING/Mark II/Datastore to the desktop and deleted it from that directory. Did the same for the Mark II folder (Solution 2)
-Failing that the first time, I uninstall/reinstall and didnt bother to update, which is why you see the original InDesign. I'll try and update InDesign and move to 10.7.4 to see if that does anything. My
Mac OS: [Startup Disk]/Library/Applications Support/Adobe/SING/Mark II/Datastore does not currently have these folders because I took them out. Maybe I'll run the crash report again and post it. I have to wait for the designer to finish for the day. I'll update possibly tomorrow.
Thank you!

InDesign CS4 and CS5 scripting on Windows 7 unstable

Hello, have not found any solutions to our previous issues with RPC errors while scripting InDesign CS4 and CS5 on Windows 7.
Even more problematic, I just installed a trial version of InDesign CS5 on Windows 7, created a small JavaScript script that places a counter text from 1 to 10.000 in a one page, one frame document and found out this crashes when the counter is at around 4500 or so. This was the same issue with CS4, that's why I tried CS5.
These scripts run fine with CS4 on Windows XP and Vista. So what is the problem with scripting Indesign on Windows 7 ? Are there any settings that should be changed in Windows 7 to create a more stable situation ? Need to allocate more memory somehow ?
Anxious to know, for now I try avoiding Windows 7.
Roelof Janssen

Shouldn't be a problem but you should be aware that if you upgrade to CS5.5 now you'll get a free upgrade to CS6 when it ships.

Indesign CS5 and CS5.5 missed INX

If cant able to delete the colors from swatchs that time export to inx and open it in text editor and find the color value and just delete it in Indesign CS3.,
But we missed inx in CS5 and CS5.5, Hope everybudy know that .INX is replaced by IDML,
If in case we face the above issue how can we solve it,

If this is just to delete colour swatches that you can't get rid of any other way there's a faster way that might work.
Make an object that uses the swatch.
Cut that object to a new InDesign document.
Save and close that new document.
Place that new document into the original document.
Delete it.
You should be able to now delete the swatch.
It's taken me longer to type this than it would have to do it!

Is it possible to have Indesign CS4 and CS5.5 both installed on the same Mac? 10.6.8

We have a bunch of recent Intel macs at our corporation. Currently they should all have 10.6.8. They were all imaged from a base image that has Adobe CS4 embedded in it.
We are now using a packaging software part of the JAMF Casper suite and AAMIE to push CS5.5 to the end users.
The problem is that we want to keep CS4 on the end user's computers in case of issues. That way the end users can try Indesign 5.5 and see if it does everything they need to do and still have Indesign for backwards compatiblity.
So we created a CS5.5 install package using the AAMIE tool which works fine. We then use Casper to spam the package out to a Mac.
The issue that arises is that a few Plugin errors occur during the lauch of Indesign CS5.5 such as:
Adobe inDesign does not recognize InCopy Bridge UI.InDesignPlugin as a valid plug-in.
Adobe InDesign does not recognize InCopyExport.InDesignPlugin as a valid plug-in.
Adobe InDesign does not recognize InCopyExportUI.InDesignPlugin as a valid plug-in.
Adobe InDesign does not recognize InCopyImport.InDesignPlugin as a valid plug-in.
There was one more plugin error that occured before the first one but I forgot to write it down.
If we click okay to them, the application launches okay but when you quit and relaunch it, you still get one of the errors.
Is this because both applications are installed at the same time?
Is it offically okay as per Adobe to have Indesign CS4 and CS5.5 installed on the same Macintosh?
What else should we be considering what to do?

Well currently, I'm just testing this issue. I just installed the trial version of Adobe CS4 suite on my mac and then deployed the CS5.5 package on top off it The resulting errors that I listed above are the same ones that occur when the end user has a licensed volume license install of CS4 and CS5.5.
So I'm still back to square 1 where when I deploy cs5.5 on an end user's mac, they get those plugin errors when they launch Indesign CS5.5.
I am not sure about the licensing restrictions, I asked my Director and he is going to check with our VAR.

Flash CS5 and CS5.5 Crash when compiling

Hey,
We're running into an issue where CS5 and CS5.5 are crashing when compiling an FLA. Our class structure is rather large, and it seems flash is running out of memory. We narrowed it down to commenting/uncommenting any line of code will let it compile or crash. I can literally open any as file from our project, comment out 1 line of code and it will compile, comment it back in and flash crashes. Has anyone run into something like this before, and have any advice on fixing it?

Hi Morf,
I can't reproduce your crash. Can you please send me the file up to the point where you saved? Please zip the file, change .zip extension to .zzz, email the attachment to my attention at [email protected]
Thanks,

Different versions of Adobe Creative Suite Compatibility (CS5 and CS5.5)

Our marketing team has two different versions of Adobe Creative Suite (CS5 and CS5.5). We can save the CS5.5 down to an IDML document so users with CS5 can open/manipulate the file but it reduces the file size significantly. What I do not know is if this saving down process reduces the quality of the file?? I am relatively inexperienced with these programs as I am self-taught. Thanks for your help!

IDML is good for repairing files.
But IDML is not good to be used as exchange in a workflow because every export of IDML can change things in an unexpected way. So I would strongly recommend that everyone in the department involved in the workflow uses the very same version, anything else will let you struggle in a later point of time. When I have to exchange files with a client I use always their versions and avoid IDML in exchanging files in any case possible.
Between CS5.0 and 5.5 are also several changes possible, because some bugs related to the text engine became fixed. E.g. in CS5 if you had an automatic TOC or cross reference in a text frame with 1 or 3 round corners and 3 or 1 normal corners, automatic number got shuffled in that frame, like page 345 became 543. When this was fixed some changes in the text engine have been done.

Two versions of Bridge installed - CS5 and CS5.1 - how to remove one?

Looks like this happened by installing Photoshop CS5.1 first, then Flash CS5 after that. Now I have two versions of Adobe Bridge, along with Extension Manager and a bunch of other redundant stuff now
This is causing me multiple problems:
1) the right-click menu "Browse with Adobe Brigde CS5" is set to the old version. Probably because it installed afterward (?). This is no good. I want it to default to the newer version obviously.
2) I am getting a lot of performance errors - the "not enough drive space" kind of error, when I just try to zoom in on a single small image in a folder with only a couple images in it. Bear in mind I have 12GB of RAM running here.
How do uninstall the old versions!?? Note, I ALSO have an old old version of Adobe Bridge that came from an install of some CS2 components!!! It's out of control and aggravating.
Please help
- Jon

It is usually recommeded you keep old versions rather than removing them. Some users run in to file association problems when removing older versions. The file association goes back to the version removed if you can comprehend that.
The versions should not conflict with one another. HOWEVER, you can run only one Bridge version at a time.
It is also recommended you install programs in order. So if you installed the newer one first and then the older one you can upset the file associate order. You can try to fix that first and then uninstall if that does not work. Go go edit.file type associations see what the dafault programs are listed as CS5 or CS5.1. There is a radio button on the bottom to reset these to factory default, and this sometimes works.
If not I would uninstall CS5 and CS5.1 and install the older one first. Or if you don't want CS5 on machine just install CS5.1. To be on the safe side you could run Adobe Script cleaner which will delete bits that the uninstall process did not get.

Flex not embedding metadata in CS5 and CS5.5

I believe we have a problem related to:
http://blog.natebeck.net/2011/05/flex-sdk-4-5-doesnt-keep-embed-metadata/
The project is a CS4 fla that has numerous files embedded with metadata tags:
[Embed(source = "campaign.xml", mimeType = "application/octet-stream")] public static var campaignData:Class;
[Embed(source="mirror.pbj", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] public static var MirrorShader:Class;
[Embed(source="rotateCW.pbj", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] public static var RotateCWShader:Class;
[Embed(source = "shopUpgrades.json", mimeType = "application/octet-stream")] public static var upgradesData:Class;
[Embed(source = "help.txt", mimeType = "application/octet-stream")] public static var helpData:Class;
None of the embedded data is being loaded in when compiled with CS5 or CS5.5
This is a serious issue for us as it means that all of our Flash 10 projects are now uncompilable in CS5 and CS5.5 and we are unable to make money on these projects.
What work around can we implement to solve this?

what exactly is your requirement. I have been able to read and write using property XMPString
this is the way to start, refer to extended toolkit documentation for XML class.
var oXML = new XML(app.activeDocument.XMPString);

Retrieve CS5 and CS5.5 installation path from registry

Hello,
I have Photoshop CS5 and CS5.5 (5.1) installed on my PC. I want to retrieve installation path for both but in registry i am able to see only CS5.5 (5.1) path. From where i can retrieve CS5 installation path?
I think registry entry for CS5 is replaced by CS5.1. Is it possible to retrieve CS5 installation path?
Thanks.

Hi Carl,
I had looked at the link you posted earlier too.. I see that you had posetd the answer then too! So, I can post my queries to you directly!
I created a jsx file named "Result.jsx", which I saved in my D drive, with the following code,
resultFile = new File("D:/result.log");
resultFile.open("w");
resultFile.write(BridgeTalk.__diagnostics__);
resultFile.close();
If I run this directly from ESTK, there is no problem, and I get the result.log file. I tried to execute this script via command line as shown in the screenshot,
On executing the above, I got the following error,
What am I doing wrong? I need to do this urgently. Please suggest a solution..
Thanks!

Why do colors come over as Color Book swatches when I copy and paste to a new document?

Why do colors come over as Color Book swatches when I copy and paste to a new document? Original document has CMYK spot color swatches. I copy them and paste them in new document and it gets converted to a Color Book swatch. Why?

Check the spot color options of that document.
It's in the swatches panel's menu.

Yes you could but that also displays the debug movie console which is uneccessary if you just want to quickly test your movie.
I find myself using Test Movie hundreds of times a day and I just want a clean, quick, uncluttered view of how my work will look.
I do use Debug Movie but only occasionally.
More importantly though is that I'm not sure FP11 is ready yet. Its got a pretty horrible bug that really affects my work:

Can you please be a little more clear about what you expect it to do vs. what it's doing.
Are you using the "Full Screen With Menus" mode or the complete "Full Screen" mode? I just tried the "Full Screen With Menus" mode and was able to use the Alt key to initiate menu operations.
