Can't activate InDesign by clicking from another application

Hi
I'm using InDesign 5, using Mac OS 10.7.3.
When I try to click an open InDesign window from another application the window doesn't activate (InDesign appears top left as the name in the top bar but the window isn't active).
The same occurs when I use application switcher.
The only way I can activate the window is to click the top bar (where the title appears).
I've tried reinstalling but to no avail.
Any ideas?
Not debilitating but annoying none the less.
Thanks
Andy

If you upgraded using the MS store, then it is Microsofts responsibilty, they should have given you a new Product key for 8.1.

  • Can I send email address, message, etc. to TB from another application via DLL

    I have an application written in Omnis Studio version 4.X. It has the ability to act as a email client but only supports simple password authentication. I can get around this on the Mac by using AppleScript to send the contents of the email, to & from addresses, et. from my application to Mail. mail then acts as the mail client and processes the emails.
    I'm looking for a similar solution for my Windows users. Can TB accept a DLL message from another application as a way to pass an email from Omnis to TB?
    Thanks,

    No Mike, whilst it is probably possible considerable development effort would be required.
    Have you looked at the[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Command_line_arguments_%28Thunderbird%29 command line switches]? perhaps they will do the job for you, but you still need to press the Send button to actually send the message.

  • Can i use REALTIME EQUALIZER of AUDIGY from another application? API of AUDIGY?? H

    Hi to all,?Can i use EQUALIZER of AUDIGY from another application? need SDK? Help me?For example, VIDEOLAN hasn't a REALTIME EQUALIZER.... i want REALTIME EQUALIZER under VIDEOLAN or other application... can i use API of SOUNDBLASTER AUDIGY from another application and how?

    ? Isn't the Audigy EQ working 'globally' (meaning, if it's enabled then it effects on all audio outputted through Audigy)?
    If you mean programming those API calls into your own software then you'll propably need to dig those functions by 'disassembling' the EQ code (it's maybe not very easy...).

  • When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

    When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

    Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

  • How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?

    How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?
    They chapters are mp3 files. Changing the genre to "audiobook" or "audiobooks" does help.
    I am sure this question will come up a lot, since the book in question is "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," purchased from Pottermore.com.

    The one thing I would add to the instructions above is that the "Media Kind" menu is on the "Option" pane in the "Get Info" Window. This procedure has allowed me not only to make imported audiobooks show up as audiobooks, but imported podcasts show up as podcasts.

  • Can we call an ODI package from another ODI package within same Project?

    hi All,
    Can we call an ODI package from another ODI package within same Project?

    What you can do is get all the interfaces on the old package that you want to be included in the new package. This way, the new package will have the exact code from the old package.Or generate a scenario out of your ("old") package and drag&drop the scenario in the "new" package.
    That seems easier to me, because you can re-use the scenario as often as you want.
    But you have to take care: If you change your original ("old") package, you have to regenerate the scenario, otherwise the changes do not affect the scenario.

  • How AWT TextField can copy/paste from another application?

    Hi,
    We know in applet for the security reason you can not access the getSystemClipboard from the Swing component like JTextField. But We know that with AWT TextField, you can copy and paste from another application. My question is how AWT textfield implemented with this feature. I don't think it is via the systemclipboard. Can some explain this for me?

    the simplest way is to select the part of charactors and drag them into your textfield ^O^

    Safari problem:  when I switch back into safari from another application, the menu bar comes up but no tabs or windows.  What's going on?  Just started yesterday.  I have found a workaround: when I Command Tab back to safari, I hit command T to open a new tab and Command W to close it, and my other tabs are visible.
    I have tried shutting down, closing tabs, with no success.  What's going on and how can I fix it?

    PS:  I'm not sure of the actual OS level, but I have not allowed it to upgrade to Maverick yet; concerned about it because of a few things I've read...

    A Safari extension or third party plugin may be causing the menu bar issue.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    As for which OS X is installed.
    Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
    The version is noted there.
    v10.6 Snow Leopard v10.7 Lion  v10.8 Mountain Lion
    It's your choice whether or not to upgrade to Mavericks. If you decide to do this, make sure your Mac meets the requirements noted here.
