Can't open Pagemaker 6.5 files in ID CS2 - Vista

I was running ID CS2 on a Windows XP Pro system and had no problems opening Pagemaker 6.5 files. That system recently suffered a processor demise that affected the motherboard and forced me to start over with a new system that's now running Vista Home Premium. All of the programs I use loaded fine on Vista except Pagemaker 6.5. When I try to load it, I get a message saying it's not compatible. So I thought, OK, I'll simply open the Pagemaker files in In Design as I've done in the past and resave them. However, every file I've attempted to open gives me an error message saying the files are damaged and can't be opened. I know none of the files are damaged because I'd recently opened many of the same files in Pagemaker before the other system crashed. BTW, all of the Pagemaker files are on external drives so couldn't have been affected by the crash.
Any ideas how I can get around this?

Thanks, Bob. I have another issue that I can't find any specifics on in the forum.
Do you know why Arial Narrow fonts aren't available in the InDesign or Photoshop font list? I've always used these fonts with no problems in XP Pro, but since going to Vista, they don't show up. They're listed in the Windows font folder. The only one that shows up in InDesign and Photoshop is Arial regular. Arial Narrow shows up and is available in Word and other programs but not Adobe.

  • Can't Open Pagemaker 6.5 Files

    I used to be able to open older PM65 files in Indesign CS2 but  now no matter what file I open I get an error that says Pagemaker file is corrumpt and will not open Or something to that effect.
    I have repaired Indesign but that doesn't help.
    Please let me know if there is a fix. I really would like to open 2 files and I have tried on my cd back up and my usb card neither works.
    Appreciate the help.
    Mary

    Thanks, I guess I will have to wait til we can afford to fix the other computer with xp. Can't imagine why there is no patch for it.
    Appreciate the help. At least I won't keep going crazy thinking I can do something to get it to work.
    Much appreciate,

  • CAN NOT OPEN  CANON EOS20D  RAW FILE IN PHOTOSHOP CS2

    I had Photoshop CS2 installed on my PC some years ago and could open my raw files from my canon eos 20d. I changed the hard drives in my pc to solid state drives and had to reinstall photoshop cs2. I could not activate photoshop as it was too old a version so I had to download from adobe website with their activation code. Now, I can not open any of my canon eos 20d files. I have taken some now photos just a few days ago and the problem still arises. I get the message that it does not recognise this type of file. Any ideas?

  • Hello all.   Hope someone can help me. I recently downloaded some  updates for my imac.  Since doing this the computer starts up but I get no logon box.  The home screen opens but I can't open any programs or files. I've tried rebooting, no joy. Help!!

    Hello all..   I hope someone here can help.  I recently downloaded some updates to my imac.  Since then the computer starts but I get the home screen opening without the logon box.    I can't open any programs or files and if I click on the Safari tab it disappears from the dock.  I've tried rebooting with no joy.
    I contacted technical help at Apple and was told to hold down the ctrl and alt keys with two other keys, I think the S or P keys when powering up. This worked
    and the computer seemed fine but now the problem has reappeared.  Is there a way to removed downloaded updates from the computer or revert it to an earlier state?   Sorry for the long question. Hopefully one of you clever people can help.   Simon

    I have a hard drive icon on my desktop that says 10.6.2....
    I use to have iphoto, it doesnt open anymore, it says there is 1.2gigs on that disk.There are many things on here that are the same way. Where do I start?
    It's always good to go with one thing at a time and stay focused on that. Let's start with the OS you're running. Click on the Apple menu > About This Mac. What does it say under Mac OS X version ?

  • Sorry! Something went wrong - I can't open my icloud pages file anymore

    I can't open my icloud pages file anymore. We are two collaborators working on it and she told me the file was freezing. I have said she can reload the file but it didn't work. Then it was my turn. I have tried from desktop but also from Ipad. The Pages app now crash when I want to open this same file. When I load my icloud page, I see the file, it is here, with the last layout, but can't open. I need to recover that document, it's important to me. Is there any assistance @apple to do so?
    Many thanks!

    I just purchased the new Canon SX60 camera. Despite downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe DNG converter, I receive an error message saying that Photoshop CS4 can't open up/convert raw files (.CR2). This is the same file format as used by the SX50, with which I never had any problem. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this problem? Thanks.

  • I can't open a silverlight dmg file-it always opens Terminal window

    Hi,  I can't open a silverlight dmg file to watch netflix.  I am running Lion on my 2.66ghz iMac i5 with 10.7.3. I can download and install silverlight but when I try to open the file, it always opens the Terminal window.  Please Help.

    It sounds like all your launch services file associations have somehow been corrupted.  I suggest your reset the launch services bake to their initial default settings.
    The easiest way for you to do this is probably to get a maintenence utility like OnyX (download the Lion version for your case).  It has, among many other things, a way to rebuild the launch services.  Launch OnyX.  It will ask for your admin password and a window like below will be dispallyed.
    As you can see from the above picture in OnyX you select Maintenance, Rebuild tab, check the LaunchServices checkbox, and click the Execute button (not shown here but it's at the bottom of the window).
    Note, the above shows the window for the Snow Leopard version of OnyX.  I don't know if the Lion version is different since I don't use Lion.

  • I have downloaded trial for Windows English version, but can't open the Captivate_8_LS21.7z file. I have 32-bit. Will this work or shoudl I redownload?

    I have downloaded trial for Windows English version 1.45GB.
    It has downloaded but I can't open the Captivate_8_LS21.7z file.
    I have 32-bit. Will this work ?

    Hi There,
    In order to download / install Captivate 8 32 bit, you have to download 2 files ( .7z and .exe ) at same location/ folder.
    Once both files downloaded completely then you have to run .exe file and it will extract .7z file first and then it will initialize the installer. You do not have to open .7z file.
    Let me provide you the download links of Captivate 8 32 bit :-
    Open the link mention below in any Web Browser say Internet Explorer
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=captivate
    Sign in with your Adobe id and Password, then you will be redirected to download Web Page of Captivate 8. 
    Do not click on Download. Kindly let that window open as it is.
    Now Copy and paste the link mention below in the new tab/window of the same Web Browser in which you have opened the above link.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.7z
    Then Save the file.
    Do the same for the link mention below and save this .exe file as well.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.exe
    Make sure both the files (.7z and .exe) save/download at the same location/folder.
    NOTE: Wait for both the files to finish download and then run the .exe file.
    Once you run the .exe, it will start extracting the .7z file and will provide Captivate 8 folder on your desktop which will contain setup.exe. Run this setup.exe to install Captivate 8.
    Regards,
    Ajit

  • Since buying Pages 5.2  can't open any Pages 09 files

    Since purchasing and updating to Pages 5.2 I can't open any Pages 09 files.  Tried various things, nothing working.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    There is no such thing as CS8 but CS5 cannot open any INDD file created in a later version. You’ll need to get an IDML file.
