Cannot open cs6 files in cc

Hello,
I recently subscribed to CC after completeing a project on the trial version. However since purchasing CC I have been unable to open any of the CS6 files I had downloaded (I could open them whilst on the trial period). Yesterday I just kept receiving the error message " Cannot open the file **** Adobe Indesign may not support the file format, a plug in that supports the file format may be missing or the file may be open in another application" Today I cannot even click to open any of the files, they are in a faded typeset in the documnents or downloads folders. I can open any indesign files I have created from scratch though? So it seems it is just the files originally created in CS6 that are affected. I am working on a macbook, if that makes any difference.
Many Thanks for your help.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your help. I am working on the 9.2 version Willi.
I am unable to open the downloaded cs6 files on their own, even from the file menu, as the error message appears, but today they are no longer in faded type in the folder, and I am able to click on them and drop into a new indesign file and resave.
So thank you for your help.

Indesign cannot open "old files" CS6.

I was supposed to do a few adjustments in a project, i have opened it before and been working in it alot.. (2 months since last time i was working with this project) When i was supposed to do some minor fixes etc on this project yesterday i cannot open the file. The project it self are only on 8900 kB. What to do???? I can open my recently "newly" made and used projects.... Ive tryed some other projects that was also old, all between 2-6 months.. And it is just randomly witch i can open and witch i "Cannot open"..
This is the error for CS6.
This is the error for CS 5.5.
If you got some suggestions scream out! Will try it all that have worked before.. (If someone have had this same problem atleast!)
Sincerely,
David

First, a tip: Try manually breaking the links to the file by moving that document you want to open to your desktop or another directory or such and then try opening them... (corrupt image previews and/or images can then be largely elminated as a potential cause)
As @Peter mentioned, we (Markzware - link here to how that works) can likely fix this file. Interesting notes from @jongware above. Without having seen this file, our research shows there are various reasons an InDesign file can head south and corrupt or crash on you. Just like a doctor can not always say what caused the problem, there are some basic steps we all should take. For instance, OS up to date, InDesign using the latest update available, enough disk space and scartch disk space for heavy Adobe design operations. Here is a list of some of the most common issues with bad INDD documents:
* Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
* Corrupt Image(s)
* Power Failure
* Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
* Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
Here is a video on how to tackle the font caches of InDesign, which is good to do once and a while anyway:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf5ZuiaYgus
For checking individual font files (fonts are like mini apps really), we recommend either FontExplorer XPro or Extensis Suitcase Fusion 4, with the later perhaps the more popular of the two.
You can contact me on [email protected] if you need assistance with us trying to recover your bad InDesign CS file further. We also have a PDF to InDesign conversion tool called PDF2DTP if you have a PDF.
Friendly Regards,
David Dilling of Markzware

Cannot open eps files on maverick oSX with CS6

I cannot open eps files on maverick oSX with CS6. AI and FW just hang and need to force quit to continue.
I have tried using FW but no success. I can open old files but no new ones (existing on my computer) since upgrading to Maverick on a Macbook air.
The files will open in Photoshop (as raster) and are able to be placed in ID.
No Plugins in AI or FW.
Latest Java update.

If you can't open them, but place them, then the files might have been created with a newer version (like CC) or they might just be (partly) corrupt.
You can try and create a new Illustrator file and place the EPS in it (embedded).

Cannot open CS6, it craves JBX-plugin, and my Mac doesn't recognize the file so I can't download

I wonder why CS6 is not complete when downloaded? Why should I have to download JBX? If needed it should be a part of Indesign. My Mac doesn't have a name of a file to open and download, so now I simply don't have CS6 and can't convert my book to Kindle for sales on Amazon.
Terribly disappointed!
/maria

I am using OS X 10.9.2 and I'm attaching the error message I get. I am
trying to install InDesign CS6 in order to convert my book to Kindle, but
Amazon's plug-in only works with InDesign CS6 NOT with InDesign CC.
I am attaching the Kindle Plugin also.

Error message "cannot open resource file" ID CS6

CS6 InDesign, getting error message "cannot find resource file" Tried deleting prefs but didn't work.

I'm sorry. I'm running OS 10.7.5 and had previous error messages about several plugins not loading due to color panel missing. Deleted prefs, added color panel back with Manage Extensions then got the "cannot open resource file" error. I know the error message above is different and I thought I had fixed it but somehow it didn't change when I updated my post. I also have a couple of old versions of CS on my computer and I don't know if I should uninstall those or if it doesn't matter. I don't know how to do that, either. I'm not very computer literate so every problem is difficult for me. Thank you.

"Cannot open resource file" when InDesign CS6 starts.

I have an Intel Mac Pro running OS/X Snow Leopard.
When I open InDesign CS6 I get an error "Cannot open resource file", but there is no indication of what file it can't open.
When I click OK in the dialog box, InDesign opens and appears to be working.
I am concerned that this may cause a problem as I continue to use it.
Is there any way I can correct this issue?
I also have InDesign CS5.5 installed on the same Mac and it runs fine with no resource error.

I tried uninstalling InDesign, once I figured out how to do that with Creative Cloud that is (it's not an option in the Adobe Application Manager - which I think it should be).
Anyway, after uninstalling and reinstalling, the error is still there.
I also tried Peter's suggestion to remove the InDesign Defaults and InDesign SavedData and have them recreated but that didn't work either. I even tried the cmd-ctrl-opt-shift method to delete the preference files and still I get the "Cannot open resource file" error.
I thought that it was just a glitch since if I click "OK" in the dialogue box InDesign seems to open fine and then even let me open up a document that I had been working on in InDesign CS5.5.
But ....
Even though the document opened fine, as soon as I click on a text field, any text field, InDesign crashes.
I tried three different documents and it does the same thing.
It didn't crash when I selected a graphic or an embedded pdf but it does as soon as I click on any text field.
Does that help narrow down what the resource file error is?
By the way, I can open InDesign CS5.5 just fine (same computer) with no resource file error and it does not crash when I select a text field, so the issue seems to be strictly with CS6.

Have you updated your Photoshop to get the latest Camera Raw update patch? If not go to:
Help >> Updates
This should get you the necessary updates for your camera assuming it is not "too recent".
Good luck and post back.

Cannot open dwg files in Adobe Illustrator CS6 version 16.0.0

I cannot open dwg files in Adobe Illustrator CS6 version 16.0.0
Has any one had this issue before?
Thank you
cgervasio

No, not really. I do get a few error messages when I start up now, but I had transferred everything from my old computer, so figured it was a glitch. The error message was a dialogue box like the others, only it said this:
"Insecure start-up item disabled. Library/Startup Items/.DS_Store/ has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings."
"Insecure start-up item disabled. Library/Startup Items/ES1000Service/ has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings."
"Insecure start-up item disabled. Library/Startup Items/Parallels/ has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings."
I know for sure we have not used Parallels in the past 2 years that I have been here.
As for the other two star-tup items, I am not entirely sure what thier purpose is.
Would any of these have anything to do with it?

I cannot open InDesign files after upgrading to CS6.

Error message is "Cannot open the file *.indd. Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug in that support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application" Can anyone help!

That message means exactly what it says, more or less. The three possibilities are it isn't an InDesign file at all (we see that here a lot), there is a .idlk lock file in the same folder (delete it), or the file has been damaged (frequently happens with flash drives).
If you open the file in a plain text editor like NotePad or TextEdit (it will look like gibberish) and paste the first few lines here we may be able to tell you if the file is damaged or not an InDesign file.

Cannot open RAW file with new camera

I just purchased a Nikon D610 that I use to shoot RAW files. When I inserted the SDHC card in my Mac, I got a message that "Photoshop cannot open this file. If you are attempting to open a raw file from a digital camera, make sure you have the latest Camera Raw update installed via Help>Updates..." This is the first time I've had this problem. With my former Nikon D600, the RAW files opened right away with no problems. I installed Adobe Camera Raw 6.7 and DNG Convertor 8.6, but it still doesn't work.

I've got some good news and some bad news.
The bad news is the D610 is supported in Camera Raw but you need a minimum of version 8.3 for it to work out-of-the-box. I know CC works with updates; I believe CS6 does too w/ updates. If you have anything earlier than that you need to upgrade.
The good news is that the D610 is supported in DNG Converter since version 8.3 but I don't know why it's not working for you. What's happening when you go to convert? Same error message?

Cannot open resource file & missing character color option

"Cannot open the file"

Hi.
I was working with CS6 when I exported a file to pdf and saved it later this morning. Now I'm trying to open it but I recieve the next message:
"Cannot open the file xxxx.indd. Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application."
Also, the file seems to be like 5 GB of weight or so.
Anyone has any solution? I've checked a few posts of this discussion forum about the same message but none of them was helpful for my case.
Thanks in advance and excuse my English.

You seem to already understand that the file is corrupt, so there's little probability that it can be recovered in ID. One possibility, but one I've not used successfully yet, can be found at Adobe Community: Program for restoring corrupted InDesign documents (for Windows only)
Another possibility is the paid service from Markzware: Bad InDesign or Quark File Recovery Submission Form
I have used that service, and it recoverd the text from a very long file successfully, but the index markers were lost, so check your results carefully if you go that route.

Cannot open CS6 Bridge. Always the same ERROR: Bridge has a problem and cannot read the cache

Cannot open CS6 Bridge. Always the same ERROR: Bridge has a problem and cannot read the cache

Try this. This is for CS6 but substitue CC and Bridge 6.
~library/caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6 and inhere should be 2 files:
Adobe Bridge Plug-in Cache
and the folder called Cache. Inhere should be 4 folders called '254', '1024', 'data' and 'full'
All those folders carry the content of the respective quality of the thumbs and preview as well as 100 % cache and Bridge database.
Any way, Since you have not used Bridge you have no relevant amount of cache and I would suggest you quit both PS and Bridge and manual delete both the items (plug in and folder called cache at the end of the Bridge CS6 path mentioned above.
(both files will refresh itself after a restart of Bridge).
To be on the save side also visit in same user library the folder Preferences and look for the file called "com.adobe.bridge5.plist" (yes it is Bridge 5 that comes with CS6, all Adobe apps have their own version number and they are presented in the same Suite version. CS6 has PS version 13 and Bridge version 5 )
also drag this file to the trash.
Then hold down option key (alt) while starting Bridge and this should give you the option to reset the preferences as mentioned earlier in this thread.
Choose reset prefs and try again.
