Any idea why InDesign CS5 doesn't open fully in Windows XP?

When I try to open an InDesign CS5 file in Windows XP, the application appears in the task bar but does not open in the window. I tried right-clicking the icon in the task bar to "maximize" the window but this has no effect.  This problem seems to happen about 60% of the time, at other times it works normally. Any idea what I should do to resolve this issue? -- Thanks

I've no idea why it doesn't open, but I can tell you what worked for me. 
I tried the minimise and then maximise option, ending processes that might be conflicting and so on.  Then in desperation, I changed the screen resolution of my monitor (right click, propoerties, settings, screen resolution).  InDesign appeared and when I changed the resolution back again it was still there. 
Give it a go.

  • My InDesign CS5 Doesn't Open

    When I try to open ID CS5, it says "Starting up Service Registry" than goes blank. It was working fine all day yesterday and than Windows decided to do an auto update over night and now ID CS5 doesn't work.... it is the only program from my CS5 suite that doesn't work.

    Do a system restore  and try again.

  • InDesign CS5 doesn't open.

    It seems that it happens since I have upgraded my Mac OS (now 10.9).
    Photoshop CS5 still works.

    an inplace upgrade is when you don't erase the disk, install the new OS, and reinstall your applications.
    To uninstall and reinstall InDesign, open the application folder and find the uninstaller, run it, then restart the Mac and run the installer again. Don't forget to update to the latest patch once you're done installing.

  • Any idea why my NEF files are opening as JPEGS in Elements 9?

    I'm totally new to shooting raw using a nikon D40X.  I just purchased elements 9 for mac and expected to just be able to open the raw files and have the dialog box open etc.  Instead, they do open in the editor but as jpegs.  Make any sense?

    Here is one theory:  Camera RAW needs a minimum screen height of 1024, so if a RAW file is opened in a short-screen computer then it shows up in PSE w/o your seeing Camera RAW.  This isn't the same as a JPG which would have compression artifacts and some noise-reduction done to it, already, in camera.
    You might also try File / Open As and choose Camera RAW and see if that acts any different.

    Hi,
    Check in Add-ons to see if you have any toolbars installed:
    [[Uninstalling add-ons|Uninstalling add-ons]]
    Because the Ask Toolbar (a custom version I think) is sometimes installed (or offered to be installed) with other programs, such as Foxit Reader.

  • On cold boot or restart, MacPro will not start unless CD Tray is open. Any ideas why ?

    hello Singyt, the bug report associated to this kind of crash indicates that it might be a malware related issue.
    your crash report also shows a file named "urixalog.dll", which doesn't turn up any search hits on google, which is also slightly suspicious. could you search for that file on your pc and upload it to a site like virustotal.com in order to analyze it.
    please do a full scan of your system with the security software already in place and/or a different tool like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes].
    [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]
    edit: the bug report also suggests that a monitoring program named spector pro/360/... which essentially acts like malware, might cause the issue. in case you have that installed please remove it. otherwise [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20crashes%20when%20you%20open%20it#w_backdoor-ulrbot-c here] would be a removal guide for urixalog.dll

  • When sending email from my Mac, Word documents do not send correctly. The recipient cannot open them. Any idea why???

    I have been dealing with this forever. No matter what format I save a Word document in (.doc .docx or whatever else), the recipient (microsoft user) is still not able to open the file in word. Does anyone have any idea why? It's driving me a little nuts.

    Right, I may have misunderstood what you meant by download to desktop. When I click the attachment, I can either "Open with: Text Edit (drop-down menu)" or Save. But save doesn't save to desktop. I can "Open with: Microsoft Word" fine.
    When I compose an email, I click attach. I select the file that is in a .docx format. It appears to load to the email correctly, and if I click that extension, it opens correctly in Word out of the pre-sent email. After being sent, it appears in god knows what format and wishes to open from TextEdit.
    Was I doing something wrong when you wanted me to download to desktop?

    Hello.
    Our recently published Windows Phone app doesn't show in some regions.
    The app is free. During the publishing I have selected "Distribute to all markets at the base tier".
    But I can't see the app in Lithuanian, Latvian or Russian Windows Phone store. Any ideas why?
    It is visible in other stores - USA, Germany, Poland, Spain, Belgium...
    App name is "Kinetic Puzzle - Animals". Below are a few examples:

    Any ideas why? We have spent half of a day trying to find where is the problem, but with no luck. Any help highly appreciated.

    Though its there, just not visible in search , try these : 
    For Russian marketplace :

    You can obviously raise the issue on Windows Phone app store support.

    See what you missed here:

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I believe if you updated your Apple TV, you need iTunes 11 to make it work.
