Does InDesign CS6 projects integrate with InDesign CC?

I have one user that has InDesign CS6 and we looking at doing the subscription for InDesign CC for another user. If InDesign CS6 creates a project, can InDesign CC open, edit, and save this project and visa versa?
Thank you

If you buy a subscription you can also install CS6, and that's waht you should be suing for collaboration with users who have CS6. CC can open CS6 files, but going the other direction requires export to .idml and there may be differences after the conversion.

Sequences is displaying wrong media when CS6 project opened with CC

I recently upgraded from CS6 to CC. I have many old projects that I have made in CS6. A few of my clients have requested changes recently and when I opened the project it opened in CC instead of CS6. This did not seem a big deal to me as I have done this with older versions of Premiere and never had an issue unless for some reason i went back versions. However this time is different. I have noticed on more than one project that when I export a sequence something goes wrong.
Lets say I am working with a wedding reception
-In preimere it plays fine the first time i open it.
-then i export it
-when i watch my exported clip it is messed up
-when i reopen the project it plays messed up
now what i mean by messed up is the clip will start lets say instead of at the entrence of the bridal party but durning the toasts, with the wrong audio to go with it. that will play through then the dances start. when it switches to a different clip i will now again be watching footage of the toasts.
the sequence within the project looks fine. each cut clip in the timeline has the right file name, and is trimed how I had it and as for the overall look like i said it looks fine, however upon playback it will play the worng clips just like in the exported file.
I have no idea why it is doing this of how to fix it quickly.
anyone have any tips of thoughts.....

DOES WORKFLOW 2.6 INTEGRATE WITH OID & CAN IT USE DIGITAL SIGNATURES?

We are currently implementing a standalone version of workflow 2.6 and would like to use digital signing along with it. Can it use OID for authentication and subsequently make use of signatures stored there?

Hello Pranav:
If your user infirmation is stored into 8i database tables you should be able to configure the Directory Integration tools built into OID 2.1.1.1 to migrate these users to OID. To get yourself up to OID 2.1.1.1 you must fisrt be at 2.1.1 which is bundled with Oracle 8.1.7 EE. Take a look at the Admin guide for 2.1.1.1. It has information about how to configure this.
Thanks,

Why does InDesign CS6 forget my preferences when I re-start?

Why does InDesign CS6 forget my preferences when I re-start? Not every time, but often. It's very frustrating to have to re-enter all my prefs. Every once in a while I start up InDesign CS6 and the new document dialog shows page sizes in po (I always use inches) and the prefs all seem to revert to default.

Do you have a Windows PC and when shutting down, is Indesign still open? If so, this can result in a damaged preferences when still writing while Indesign is being terminated by the system.

Indesign CS6 on MACs with OS 10.8 are having problems with links

Hi
Indesign CS6 on MACs with 10.8 are having problems with links. All links to other files have to be updated when opening a file although definitely nothing has changed to the linked files.
We can rule out our company's networking and the system hosting the files (HELIOS software on RedHat Linux VM). This happens with newly created Indesign files and with old ones. E.g. we create a file on Tuesday, save it and open it again on the exact same MAC on Wednesday and all links to other fiels (.indd, .png, .bmp, etc. nothing uncommon) have to be updated as they all show the yellow triangle + black exclamation mark symbol next to them. Has anybody else experienced this, What can we do? We have tried absolutley everything and updated all software from MAC OS to CS6 itself but nothing seems to help on the long run.
Any further information required?
M. Miller

Thanks for your quick reply.
We actually noticed that there also seems to be something wrong with the timestamps:
If we open the infos via the MAC finder to a file (.psd e.g.) which is linked in one of our indesign files, it states a certain date of creation.
If we then switch to the Indesign file we just opened in which we had to update all links and open the infos to exactly the same file we looked at in the finder, a different date of creation is stated. So there also seems to be a mistake here (hope it's clear what I mean).
We are ruling out our network as the error cannot be "re-enacted". We have created numerous test files in Indesign (simple white page containing one link to a .psd file which is also used in one of the supposedly defective files) and have opened them on various MACs with various OS versions over the past days/weeks but unfortunately the files open without any notifications or errors.
Just as a background: a few months ago, the problem seemed to occur between MACs with differing OS, 10.6 - 10.8 at first. A file which was created on a 10.6 MAC could not be opened without updating all links on a 10.8 MAC. That is why we updated everything to 10.8. The error did not occur for about 2-3 weeks but then reoccured again.?
Have you heard anything similar?

Will Adobe indesign cs6 books work with the adobe indesign creative cloud version?

Will Adobe indesign cs6 books work with the adobe indesign creative cloud version? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think, this question is a very good one.
If I have a *.indb document created in CS6, populated with InDesign documents from CS6, what to do, if I want to migrate my workflow to the latest version of InDesign CC-2014?
Short answer (avoiding trouble and headaches):
1. Convert all your InDesign documents from CS6 to CC-2014 (*)
2. Use NEW document file names for all your CC-2014 InDesign file types: *indd, *indt, *indl
3. Build your *indb documents for CC-2014 anew.
4. Use NEW document file names for CC-2014 InDesign file type: *indb
But isn't that a tedious task to do?
Yes. But fortunately there are some scripts around helping you with the conversion process.
See Peter Kahrel's website. Especially:
Free script Batch convert/export InDesign documents | Peter Kahrel
There are others as well…
Uwe
*Before migration of the workflow batch export all InDesign CS6 documents to IDML and PDF.

You can certainly place any images you work on with it. What else did you
have in mind?

[Mac][JS] Where does InDesign store last "Save As" folder path?

Is this location accessible to scripting? I've looked around the preferences objects as well as the "Class" properties of the File and Folder objects without finding anything.
Coming up empty-handed there, I looked through the filesystem for .plist files it might be using. It must be stored in some such place, because the location persists across sessions and survives a trashing of the InDesign Defaults file at ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version 7.0/en_US/InDesign Defaults. It also seems to write the location to wherever it lives immediately upon a Save As rather than at application close. I've tried discovering the location with lsof but either can't catch it in the act or am missing which of the hundreds of files InDesign has open is the culprit.
It does not appear to be in com.adobe.InDesign.plist or com.adobe.mediabrowser.plist. There is a path property (NSNavLastRootDirectory) stored in the former file but it's not the one.
I hope I'm making this more complicated than it is and that it can be accessed in a DOM property somewhere. Does anyone know?
Jeff

So you're asking the wrong question. You dont' care "where does InDesign store it," you care "where can I get it?"
Actually I'd like to set it as well as get it. I would like to integrate with InDesign's expected behavior as much as possible; it would be ideal if, the next time a user did a Save As, it defaulted to the location they had chosen when they ran my script. Little inconsistencies like that drive me batty. It's a small issue and quite likely not worth the time I'm spending on it, but at this point I'm so confused by how InDesign is maintaining these paths that I would like to understand for understanding's sake.
The InDesign Saved Data cache file you pointed out does indeed contain a lot of paths, and these kinds of save, import and export locations appear to be among them. They jump around in the file a lot, though. If you have any experience parsing this file and can help me look for whatever markers it uses I would be grateful.
While in my earlier tests I never saw any path property in com.adobe.InDesign.plist but NSNavLastRootDirectory, I have since sometimes seen NSNavLastCurrentDirectory:GetFile:0 and NSNavLastCurrentDirectory:PutFile:0, and these do hold what you would expect. However, all installed versions of InDesign read and write to this file without affecting each other's behavior in this regard. And I haven't been able to figure out yet when InDesign writes or reads the path to its cache file and when it uses the .plist file.
Complicating things further, it looks to me like calling File.saveDialog() in CS5 brings up the folder in NSNavLastRootDirectory, regardless of what was last chosen during a Save As in the UI, while CS4 respected the last Save As. Using the value in NSNavLastRootDirectory via
var startFolder = Folder(app.doScript("return (do shell script \"defaults read \" & \"com.adobe.InDesign\" & \" NSNavLastRootDirectory\")",ScriptLanguage.APPLESCRIPT_LANGUAGE))
will at least allow me to prevent the user from landing in a restricted folder in CS5.

Adobe Premiere CS6 'Create new Trimmed Project' Crash with .MXF files

Yesterday I started to back up all our students work, and found that the "Create New Trimmed Project" no longer works in CS6 with .MFX files.
Adobe Premiere CS6.0.3, crashes when I try to "Create New Trimmed Project" under "Project Manager"
This only happens when there are .MXF files in the Sequence.
As we use Panasonic P2 cameras at this university, this is a problem, as this is the format that they shoot in.
As a test I have made a Project with only one .MXF file placed on the sequence, and it crashes.
This happens on my Macs and Windows machines with Adobe Premiere CS6 .
Adobe Premiere CS5.5 works fine, and does not crash.
Unfortunately I cant save a CS6 project as a CS5.5
If you don't have any .MXF files to test this,
You can make your own .MXF files by exporting any video file as "MXF OP1a" or "P2 Movie" Format, (the Preset setting is irrelevant - any preset will cause it)
P.S.
Using "Collect files and Copy to new Location" under "Project Manager" works fine, but does not reduce project size as much.

I also discovered this behavior last summer. Unfortunately the best (lame) answer I could find was that "Some formats, such as Long GOP based media files, cannot trim media, or add handles." Source: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b1038518aef7-7c72a .html
That's not very specific, but in my case at least (and it sounds like in your case, too) .MXF may be another file type that cannot be trimmed. If I remember correctly, the answers I got from others was that they were able to export fine. My machine (and maybe yours) has an issue that nobody else seems to have encountered. So none of the prescribed remedies allowed me to move forward in this regard.
After much searching, asking and several suggestions from various Premiere communities, I gave up and moved on.
Use Remove Unused and then Collect Files and Copy to New Location. At least that can help you if you have a lot of clips. In my case, it didn't help much, because my very short clips were edited from very long takes, so as Premiere sees it, not much was "unused".
Be aware that "Project Manager does not copy and collect After Effects compositions that are dynamically linked to an Adobe Premiere Pro project. Project Manager does save the Dynamic Link clip in the trimmed project as an offline clip, however."
Wish I could offer you more.

Does InDesign CC XML support Footnotes/Endnotes and Index Markers?

Hi,
Does InDesign CC XML support Footnotes/Endnotes and Index Markers already?
Can anyone give me the list of limitations in XML to InDesign.
Thanks in advance.

Hello MW,
First of all thanks for your reply. Yes I can create an XSLT to change the XML stream ready for import into InDesign template that we have. I have also downloaded the Refoot.js and UnFoot.js. For the footnotes I have already workaround for that, but how about the index-markers and cross-references do you have any idea on how to deal with it?
Actually I have already XSLT script that will convert XML to InDesign Tagged Text. But our client want us to use the XML embedded in InDesign so they can just export the InDesign back to XML easily. I know that there are limitations in XML to InDesign, but we need to proved to them that using XML is not good to use in this workflow because of those limitations. So I'm looking for the list so I can send to them to tell them that what they want is not doable since there are a lot of things that XML in InDesign can't do.
We have existing XML to InDesign round tripping workflow; 1) first we have the XSLT that will convert XML to InDesign Tagged text including footnotes, endnotes cros-refeneces and index-markers; 2) once the layout is final will export the InDesign document to HTML; 3) use XSLT script to convert exported HTML to XML. But it seems this workflow is not efficient to them. Can anyone suggest what other workflow for round tripping XML to InDesign.
Again thank you very much for your quick reply.
Regards,
Elmer

Does Indesign CSS work on VISTA or not?

Does Indesign CSS work on VISTA or not?

By CSS, you mean CC? or CS6? or CS5.5?
The Indesign CC Tech Specs say only Windows 7 and Windows 8.
http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/tech-specs.html
Indesign CS6 was not supported in Vista either (CS5.5 and earlier were OK)
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-indesign.html
It may still be made to work on Vista but it's untested by Adobe and not a supported configuration.

If I back up iMovie projects to an external drive does it take the media with it? I want to free up space and remove pictures that were in iPhoto...that were used as media by iMovie when project was under way. In short I want archive iMovie stuff

If I back up iMovie projects to an external drive does imovie take the media with it? I want to free up space and remove pictures that were in iPhoto...that were used as media by iMovie when project was under way. In short I want archive iMovie stuff. If I pull pics out of iPhoto, and later want to drag an archived projet bac into iMovie and the pics are no longer in iPhoto, will I be able to keep working in the project in iMovie?

Very likely not, as the iPhoto's can be used for something else.
More like it took a copy, or it's referencing that spot on the drive in the editable files and most likely made a copy to create a new permanent export file.
Sample one picture and a iMovie file and see what happens.

Hi - for any photo, info in mountain lion shows a different file size than Photoshop does. I've tested with CS3 and CS6 and get the same problem. Doesn't happen with CS3 and OSX10.4 or any previous versions of Photoshop and OSX. Anyone know why?

Hi - for any photo, info in mountain lion shows a different file size than Photoshop does. I've tested with both CS3 and CS6 on 10.8.2 and get the same problem. This doesn't happen with CS3 and OSX10.4 or any previous versions of Photoshop and OSX. Anyone know why?

this one is actually a really rare symptom of a flaky connection to the ipod on a Windows PC. there's more going on in terms of hardware on nanos and 5th gens than in the earlier models ... so if the connection is flaky to precisely the right/wrong degree, itunes will see the ipod, but misidentify it as an earlier version of ipod.
tracking down the cause of the flakiness can be tricky ... as you already know ...
just checking. have you tried connecting with a different (known-good) USB cable? does that seem to have any impact on the rate of occurence of the problem?

My daughter is doing a video project for her school her computer is all updated with maverick o/s the schools isn't an when she puts in her dasher drive it says i movie needs to be updated

my daughter is doing a school project her mac book pro is up to date with mavrick sofe ware but the schools isnt ther on lion 10 so when she does a video on her mac book an outs on a flash drive an she plugs it into computer at school i movie comes up an says has to be update on the computer at school is there a way around this ?

Have her use the old version of iMovie. It should be in the iMovie folder inside Applications.
Unfortunately, I don't see a way to export a project into the old format.
If she needs to work on it at school as opposed to just exporting a final movie, then I think she would have to redo the project in the old version of iMovie.
