CS6 freezes when adding page

Mac OSX 10.7.5 using ID CS6
When I try to Layout>Page>Add Page or Insert Pages etc. ID freezes.
All ID updates are installed. Only fix tried so far was to restore preferences.
Any help would be appreciated. Have a deadline tonight, of course.

More likley it's still file damage. Try rebooting and trash the prefs again. In case you don't know how to do that correctly, see Replace Your Preferences
You might also want to look at Adobe Forums: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding for instructions on how to generate a crash from your freeze and get the reports.

Extension Manager CS6 freezes when loading extensions

Extension Manager CS6 freezes when loading extensions
When launching Extension Manager CS6 it starts loading extensions but totally freezes when the last 30 percent of the loading extension bar is still unaccomplished. It is not possible to close the window, not even with the task manager. I have restart the computer to get rid of it.
My OS is Windows 7, 64 bit. The most recent versions of the entire Adobe CS family are installed, freshly updated, including the Extension Manager CS6.
To trace the cause of the problem I tried to create a log file in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager CS6. I logged in as administrator and wrote in the Command Prompt Window:
echo > ExManLog.YES
The log file was created but contains nothing but "ECHO is on".
A possible cause of the problem might be that I have two installed active version of Ajatix Advanced CSS Drop Down Menu, which is an add-on to Dreamweaver. The first version is the free one, the second is the full paid version. I would like to deactivate the first one since which might make the Extension Manager happier. But the only way to deactivate it that I know of is to use the Extension Manager. Catch 22.

Dear Carl, thanks for the advice that made me understand how to remove an extension without using the Extension Manager. However, the problem persists, i.e the Extension Manager freezes soon after it is launched, when the last 30 percent of the loading extension bar is still unaccomplished.
Following your instruction I have tried to remove both my versions of the troublesome DW extension (Ajatix Advanced CSS Drop Down Menu). Which in my case meant that I deleted the following files:
the files com.ajatix.AdvancedCSSMenuLight.mxi, com.ajatix.AdvancedCSSMenuLight.mxi_air and com.ajatix.AdvancedCSSMenuLight.zxp in C:\Users\<My UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store\Dreamweaver CS6
and the files ajxcssmenu2.3.0.mxi, ajxcssmenu2.3.0.mxi_air and ajxcssmenu2.3.0.mxp in C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store\Dreamweaver CS6
In the hope of cleaning out everything from this extension I have also deleted the following files:
AJXCSSMenu.chm, AJXCSSMenu.dll in C:\Users\UpdatusUser\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\JSExtensions
and AJXCSSMenu.chm, AJXCSSMenu.dll, AJXCSSMenuLight.chm, AJXCSSMenuLight.dll in C:\Users\ipb-master\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\JSExtensions
Every time I thus get rid of the Ajitex files the Extension Manager seems happy and loads the only extension I currently have left (Adobe exchange). However when I reinstall the Ajitex extension, the Extension Manager behaves in the same bad manner, freezes after approximately 70 percent of the process of loading extensions. Same thing when I remove this extension and try to install another from Ajitex (Email Spam Blocker). It seems to install all right but afterward the Extension Manager freezes when launched.
Don't know what to do now.

Bridge CS6 crashes when adding tags or ratings

Bridge CS6 crashes when adding tags or ratings. Someone suggested upgrading video driver. It resolved the problem for a short time and then started crashing again when adding tags or ratings. Sometimes it works fine but lately it crashes almost every time I tag or rate one image. I have upgraded my video driver and reset cache and reset preferences.
Never had a crash with Photoshop CS6 or RAW ...only with Bridge when Tagging or Rating

Thanks for your help Paul

Curt Y ....saw your response to another person with the same problem.....video, printer, or scanner drivers could be the problem???? Really? My computer never crashes until I installed Bridge.

HT203793 Playlists freezing when adding music to them now, how to unfreeze?

Playlists freezing when adding music to them now, how to unfreeze? I'm not using Match.

Try closing the Music app completely and then reset your iPad. You will not lose any data.
In order to close the Muisc app, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

[JS CS3] Page side when adding pages

Hello all,
I am using a script to remove oversets by adding pages with linked text frames to the end of the document. When I am done removing the oversets, I check to make sure the document ends on a left page; if not, I am using the code below to add an extra page. However, the page ends up as a second right hand page right next to the previous one. How do I ensure that the page I add is a left-hand page. Thanks in advance.

// Set a variable for the active document.
var oDoc = app.activeDocument;
// Call a function to remove the oversets
// Make sure the document ends on a left page.
if (oDoc.pages[-1].side == PageSideOptions.RIGHT_HAND)
AddPageAndLinkedTextFrame(oDoc);
function AddPageAndLinkedTextFrame(oDoc)
var oPage = oDoc.pages.add(LocationOptions.AFTER,oDoc.pages[-1]);
var oTextFrame = oPage.textFrames.add();
oTextFrame.geometricBounds = GetPageMarginBounds(oDoc,oPage);
oTextFrame.previousTextFrame = oDoc.pages[-2].textFrames[0];

in "standard" document - without page shuffling, etc. - you can do something like this (VB):
if mydoc.pages.item(a) mod 2 then
' right page
else
' left page
endif

Zoom settings change when adding pages

Hi
When adding a page to a document with this code:
app.activeDocument.pages.add(LocationOptions.AT_END);
InDesign automatically reverts the zoom setting to FIT_TO_PAGE
Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
I would like that it should stay at whatever it was.
Help will be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Davey

1) is there a difference between what I wrote "layoutWindows[0]" and what you wrote "windows[0]"?
Yup, "layoutWindows" refer to just the layout windows -- the ones one is normally working in. The other kind is "storyWindows", which is what you get when you open a text in the "Story Editor". There are vast differences between the two, such as "zoom" (you cannot zoom in on the story editor window).
Using "windows", without specifying the kind, you get a list containing both types; and using "windows[0]", you get the very first one, whether it is a story window or a layout window. Then, if it happens to be a story window, csm_phil's script will Crash & Burn because you cannot zoom in on a story window.
Your version will work correctly, and just in case you might have a story editor window open, it's best to stick to "layoutWindows" if you want to change a layout window property.
2) Although this does help, is there a way to prevent it from happening?
The reason I ask is because in a script which adds many pages, (e.g., MultiPageImporter script), the script needs to do this after adding each page.
No, you cannot prevent it in any way. It's just ID's default built-in behavior (although it seems strange that this only happens when using a script!).
But I disagree with your assessment it needs to be done "after adding each page". ID does not store the zoom percentage for each separate page and so it is enough to read the current zoom, add as much pages as you like, then set the zoom.

Acrobat freezes when adding a signature field

We are currently using Acrobat 9.5.5 (updated on 12th June 2013) on a windows 7 (64-bit) machine, when adding a signature field to a PDF that has been created using the AdobePDF printer (from a file created in AutoCAD 2013) Acrobat freezes and starts to use excessive amounts of RAM (peaking at around 1.9GB), and eventually either crashes or after about 30 seconds adds the field.
We've tried to use Acrobat XI (trial version), but this seems to make the problem worse (using over 3.5GB of RAM) and taking in excess of a minute to eventually add the field.
The problem seems to be limited to certain files, 2 in particular are causing the problem, both of which are around 5MB in size, when we add a signature to other smaller files the problem isn't as crippling, the "freeze" only stays for a couple of seconds and the field is usually added.

When adding pages, keeping size the same

It seemed so easy but, NO. How does one attach pages from a file and keep the pages the same size?

I may not described my problem clearly. The last page of the document I wish to add to, when it is displayed full-screen is shown to be 18.4% (Zoom to page level). The first page of the new document (File) I want to add, when it is displayed full screen, is shown to be 71.1% (Zoom to page level). The result of adding the new page is that, when the complete document is viewed, the last page (the newly-added page) is miniscule, compared to the preceding page. I simply do not have enough experience to figure out what to do.

Sparse templates (when adding page types)

I'm not sure if this has already been posted in the forum, but I discovered it as I dealt with the growing number of templates, v1.1 templates, and custom templates that my iWeb now has. Also helps stub out the v1.1 'Blank' page type for older custom templates.
When adding templates to iWeb, iWeb seems to like it's TemplatesInfo.plist to contain EVERY page type for EVERY template. However, as I'm developing a new template, I sometimes like to have just a few page types defined... or, sometimes I create a simple template for a simple site that only has a couple of page types.
So, when I am defining the new entries for each template within a page type, I specify a bogus filename (I use "Unavailable.webtemplate") for any entry where I don't have that page type / template combination. For example, if my "DogDays" template only has a Welcome and Blog page type, then in every other page type the DogDays template's entry will use the bogus filename.
Pictures help make this much more clear, so here's a page that I posted to remind me how to add a new page type... I use the bogus "Unavailable.webtemplate" in the example:
http://web.mac.com/dovinci/iWeb/dovinci/New%20Page%20Types.html
It also shows what the "page picker" in iWeb looks like.

Hi,
The design for a calendar date box is determined by the "formRegionBody" class style (at least according to theme 12). You, therefore, need to update this.
In theme 12 ("Blue"), this is defined in the css as:
.formRegionBody {
font-size:12px;
font-weight:normal;
color:#285577;
background-color:#D7DFE6;
border-left:1px solid #BFBFBF; border-top:1px solid #BFBFBF;
border-right:1px solid #FFFFFF;border-bottom:1px solid #FFFFFF;
You can either update the css or add the above in a style tag on your calendar page (adjusting the colours as required).
Regards
Andy

Photoshop CS6 freezes when using Liquify filter

Hi,
sorry for starting this topic again, but reading other discussions didn't help. THe problem is that Photoshop freezes when I use Liquify filter. It is enough just to open it and then click cancel - the Photoshop gets stucked immediately. I have never had such problem before, ran the whole Creative Suite 6 succesfully on my laptop, but after I reinstalled system using an old system image, it is not working properly.
I have Photoshop CS6, Windows 7 64 bit and I have Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000 integrated and NVIDIA GeForce GT540M external graphics cards. I am forcing the laptop to use NVIDIA only for everything, also I force Photoshop itself to start with NVIDIA GPU. Nothing helped.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!

Is it possible the old system image had an old video card driver or you are not running the latest CS6 update? I would first check to be certain you have all the latest CS6 and video card updates.

InDesign CS5 crashes when adding pages - is there an answer yet?

Having scouted around I can see lots of people have this (or a similar) problem, but with far more specific circumstances than mine - e.g. in templates, or with documents created in previous versions, or when adding more than 10 pages, etc.
Mine is a 'virgin' CS5 install, I've been away since PageMaker 6.5 and I'm not trying to salvage any of that stuff! Every time I try to add pages in the middle of a document it crashes, regardless of how many I try to add. A work around which sometimes works is to add them at the end of a document and then drag them to where they are needed.
Looks like this problem is widespread, I see lots of people talking about it going back almost a year, but can find no mention of it or possible solutions from Adobe. Are these forums just a sop to the user, a place to moan and vent without ever getting answers or acknowledgement that a problem exists? No offence Adobe, but I don't have time to join a community or spend hours on forums, I'm too busy. I need software that works and timely answers.

First, I don't recal more than one or two threads reporting a problem like this that wasn't related to some sort of configuration issue on the user's machine (notably the 3-column master issue that John has mentioned), and that hardly qualifies as "widespread" around here. Poviding full details about what version of ID, including the patch level, and your OS, along with exactly what you are doing, what happens, and any error messages you receive, and what you've already tried to solve the problem, will get you better help faster.
Second, you are not talkint to Adobe here. If you want to waste your time talking to tech support, you need to do that on the phone. The people here are user volunteers. We don't write the code and have no influence over what happens in engineering, but we do have a lot of collective real world experience that gladly share, and there are very few problems other than genuine bugs that we don't solve. But if you don't have time to participate in the community there's a pretty good chance the community won't find time for you.

Illustrator CS6 Freezing when opening existing files. Need Help ASAP.

Hello There,
I have the most current version on Illustrator CS6. When opening files, any file, it freezing and I have to force quit the application. I have deleted the pref file with some luck, it will only work for a short time. I have held shift+cmd+opt and this too will work 1 in 10 time. I've uninstalled illustrator multiple times. no progress. I need a fix not a band-aid. I am on a mac running OS X 10.8.3. Is this a known issue? I have a co-working having the same issues.
Any suggestions??
Aaron
