CS6 Indesign Files stored on Creative Cloud corrupt

I have not had any previous issues with opening Indesign files until today. Any file I try to open from my cloud folder generates a crash error. Paste bin screen shot below. All other Indesign files not in my cloud folder open correctly. Also I visited the creative cloud website and the file previews correctly. When I try to download a version from the site it only generates a null file that is not viewable.
Computer specs
iMac 3.2 GHZ Intel Core i5
Memory 16gb 1600 mhz ddr3
OS X 10.8.3.

You cannot attach screen shots. You must embed them using the camera icon onthe web page, like this:
And the actual crash report, posted on Pastebin.com with a link here, could be even more useful than a screen shot.

Book files stored in Creative Cloud not syncing

Hi everyone!
We are working on a project that is stored in Creative Cloud to take advantage of collaborative workflow. Everything is working fine so far.
I've just created a book and added a few files so that I can sync styles, master pages, etc. This is working flawlessly on my end so far.
The problem comes when another teammate tries to open the book file I've created on his/her end. The book opens but it is empty (no documents listed at all). However if a send the book file to them via email or store it on a network drive and they open it everything works perfect.
So the problem seems to be related with Creative Cloud not syncing the book files properly. Any clue on the matter? We must store the project files on Creative Cloud so work from a network drive is not an option for us.

Yeah, you are absolutely right, we are using Google Drive for pretty much everything else, is way more faster, more reliable and is full featured (how about download entire folders Adobe or zero errors when syncing, Adobe?). And on top of this is cheaper (way more is you ask me).
Sadly, we really MUST work in Adobe CC for this particular project so no scape here.

Replacing a file stored on creative cloud won't load

Why can I not replace my Muse file uploaded on creative cloud? It starts, but won't finish.

Hello,
Are you saying that you're facing issues while publishing the site? If so, what is the error that you get when trying to publish?

Are Files stored on Creative Cloud backed up and can I restore from previous date?

Hello,
One of my laptops was compromised this week due to an email virus. Since then whenever I try to access files I have stored in my Creative Cloud folder while using a different machine none of the files will open. Does Adobe use any kind of backup or archiving which could restore from?
Thanks!
Ken Lamb

Hi Kenelamb,
Did you happen to have the file sync turned on? If they are stored in the cloud then you will be able to retrieve them. Just log in with your Adobe ID to https://creative.adobe.com/archive#
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/desktop-sync-getting-started.html. How are you accessing the files from a different computer? Are you just using a network cable to access them?

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Lightroom Mobile is not a cloud storage service. You shouldn't treat it as a way of backing up your files. You are merely storing Smart Previews of your files in the cloud space, high-quality JPEGs of your files regardless of their original format on your desktop. The point is that they are there so you can continue editing them in a Lightroom-like environment even while away from your desktop/laptop computer. The files in Lightroom Mobile can only be used in Lightroom Mobile.
This is very different from what is offered by the Creative Cloud storage, which can be used to synchronize your files between any device (that can support the individual files).
The vast difference in how each service works and its intended use is why they are separate.

How do images embeded in InDesign link when using Creative Cloud on more than two desktops?

How do images embeded in InDesign link when using Creative Cloud on more than two desktops?

If I am understanding your question correctly, you shouldn't have to worry about embedded images in InDesign. Once embedded, the image is stored within the file.
If you are wondering about linked images... InDesign will follow the path on your computer and, if it does not find the image, you will recieve a notification. Edit: To prevent this, I would suggest packaging your file using File > Package... This will create a folder with all of your fonts and linked graphics so that you need not worry about broken links. I just remembered that you cannot upload folders directly to Creative Cloud so a packaged folder wouldn't be very helpful unless you wanted to upload each file manually.
The best solution I see right now is to either embed the graphics in the document, or upload the images with your document to relink.
I hope this helped,
Michael

I am a new Indesign user and a Creative Cloud member. I was using the Window/Pages drop down window to view my pages alphabetically or by page number and also to determine whether or not my JPEG files were sufficiently HI-Res for the printer. I don't know how I did it but somehow the window has changed so that now it does not have the alphabetical/numerical/Hi-Res information. It just shows the pages in a two page spread in numerical order. How can I restore the window so that I will be able to view the information as I did previously.
Your help will be appreciated,

The pages panel is not the place where you see this information. You can customize the Links panel to show all sorts of things, including the page number, effective and actual ppi, and whether the link is OK or needs updating.

When I save a CS6 InDesign file as an .idml file InDesign crashes and sends a report to Adobe.

When I save a CS6 InDesign file as an .idml file InDesign crashes and sends a report to Adobe.
When I restart InDesign the .idml file is in the directory as well as a locked InDesign file.
I cannot open the .idml file, instead I get the message:
Cannot open "" file. Adobe InDesign maynot support the file format,
a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing,
or the file may be open in another location.
I can however open an InDesign .idml file that was saved from InDesign CC software.
InDesign CC software is also unable to open the .idml file that I created in CS6.

It seems to be a corrupted IDML file. Does it happen with every file or only with that one.
What is the content of that file? Did you embed images or graphics or did you ink them? Size?
Maybe that this would help you: Re: InDesign 6 is crashing when attempting to open a particular document. All others are opening OK.

Synchronize Files error on Creative Cloud desktop

Hi there,
I can't synchronize anymore my files with the creative cloud Desktop.
I am running Creative Cloud Windows 8.1 64 bits. My OS and my softwares are uptodate. I think it's since 1 or two CC Desktop update that i can't synchronize files anymore. Fonts are still synchronized.
I've tryed evrything i could:
     -remove and reinstall CC desktop
     -stop synchronize, star again
     -place the folder to default location
     -no file in the folder
And even with no files in it it can't synchronize lol
When i remove and re-install it works fine, i can put files and it's synchronize well. But when i re-start my comp it show "error can't synchronize"
At work I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bits CC Team and it works fine. The only difference is my Anti virus, F-secure at work, Avast at home.
I Hope you've got some ideas for me..
Cheers

I agree... a late evening talk would be better than chat. I think I'll have to give a call next week and hopefully talk to someone that I can explain the situation.
Right now CC is working okay with exception of the files and fonts.. I'm enjoying the latest software and can see all the apps and able to install as needed. I've just recently explored the other features. Such as storing files in the cloud account.
I thought it would be easy. The website uploaded them fine and a few test files are there but I just don't see them in the CC desktop app. Also the "Turn File and Font Sync OFF" in the dropdown at
top of the app looks the same. It won't toggle when clicked on.
It's hard to determine what is current information sometimes that I'm reading on forums. I have seen where the files feature is not available yet but I'm just not sure if that was from the past or still not working. There should be a page that you can go to that is the very most up to date information and maybe there is but I haven't found it.
I was able to get Typekit font account and for a moment I thought that was going to work. It showed under Fonts in the CC app on my desktop but that's all it did was show up. The moment I tried to retrieve a font through clicking it then everything under Font disappeared and now when I click the Fonts tab it's a blank white window with the wheel spinning in the center like it's loading.
One last thing regarding the files syncing. I believe there is suppose to be a folder on your computer that it creates and that's where the files are on your computer that match those in the cloud storage. I can't find that folder on my computer. I've done a search but no folder. I'm on Windows 7. Might still go back to that feature not being available though and just part of that.
If I find something out useful I'll let you know. I'll call on Monday if I can.
Thanks for the reply.

Installation file cleanup. Creative Cloud

Installation file cleanup. Creative Cloud has installed many files that i do not need is there an easy way to get rid of them?
Such as the user agrement in 15 differant languages
I want a lean and mean computer without all of the crap.
Also can i just install the 64 bit apps when both are downloaded ie photoshop 32 and photoshop64?
I followed the directions on reinstalling encore and now i also have bridge cs6 with bridge cc.
This is a bad way to run software company.

To find all the crap, start with all the 64 bit applications in C:\Program Files\Adobe like AE, Au, BR, FL, IL, etc. They all contain directories named:
AMT
AMT Languages
dict
Legal
LM Resources
Locales
OBL Res
Resources
zDictionaries
or similar names. Some of these directories are hidden in other directories, so you may have to drill down a bit and be careful not to delete stuff like .XML files or icon files. Nearly all the language related subdirectories and files in there can be deleted, I only left en_GB and en_US in place, because I only use the English US version. Note that not all applications have the exact same directory structure or contain the exact same files.
Now move to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe and repeat the above steps for all Adobe applications.
Next step is to repeat this for C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe and for C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe again. I know it is tedious work, but you free more than 2 GB of space.
For ages I have filed feature requests to use a common depository for all the legal documents and languages to be used by all Adobe applications, whether you have only one or all applications and to limit the number of languages to only the OS language, the Adobe language of choice and possibly the locale in the keyboard settings, instead of all 44 languages. One could even add a check box option to select more languages if one desires.

Am I required to save files to the Creative Cloud, or may I use a local file server?

Am I required to save files to the Creative Cloud, or may I use a local file server for in-office sharing?

You are not required to save files to the Creative Cloud.
The online file storage is merely and an additional service, but there are several benefits:
You file is backed up online in case the file is accidently deleted locally or your hard drive crashes.
Image previews of InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop files in the web browser for someone who does not have these programs and would otherwise be unable to view the file.
Share the file with someone else allowing them to comment and download.

Music is not stored on Creative Cloud in same format as it is on my personal computer---i.e. wav or mp3 ?????

Music files are not stored on Creative Cloud in same format as they are on my personal computer--- i.e. as wav or mpe files --- how come?

This is essentially my question as well - I have a personal CC account and I would like to use my personal libraries on my work computer.
Since that involves signing in to CC on my work computer, I am wondering if that will mess up my employer's CC license on my computer (or in general)
Anyone at Adobe have an opinion on this question?

How do I move my Muse file to the Creative Cloud folder without losing all the links to assets?

I'd like to keep my .muse files in the Creative Cloud folder so they will be accessible from anywhere, and always backed up. But I have many hundreds of links to image assets etc, and am worried that if I move the Muse file to the CC folder the links will be broken.
The links situation with Muse already seems worrying to me — my images are all arranged in folders but Muse seems unable to deal with this properly so can have trouble finding them. So if I move not only the Muse file but all the image files and folders, will Muse still be able to operate, or will I be faced with potentially having to spend many hours manually linking the image files?
Is there a recommended way of arranging assets etc when working with Muse using the Creative Cloud folder?
Thanks

Move from the Creative Cloud to the Muse forum. They will be able to help you here with the issue of Muse finding your images.
The Creative Cloud file storage will do nothing to change any of your files, it will just store them. But you will not be able to make your Muse sight work from within the Creative Cloud.

Do you mean you are trying to sync files from Creative Cloud to mobile and it doesn't work? I don't know much about Lightroom. It's better to ask your question at Photoshop Lightroom.
