Errors converting indesign pdf to pdf/A-1a - any ideas what they mean?

Acrobat has to convert a tagged PDF 1.5 document generated by indesign to PDF/A1a but does not seem able to do this.
If anyone could explain these errors to me:
- Structured PDF : Type entry in a structure element not "StructElem"
- Structured PDF : Type entry missing
...this would be greatly appreciated so i can narrow my search.
A step by step explanation on how this conversion can be done would even be better (but any help will do)

Pdf/A-1a files appear to be tricky - and almost impossible to find  information about (no-one seems to know how to make a pdf/A-1a file starting  from Indesign (CS5, or 4, or 3 or any other version...)
I posted this question first on the adobe indesign-forum and got the advise  to post it on the adobe acrobat forum. (http://forums.adobe.com/message/1962560#1962560)
So I did that and got the advise to post it here...
I'm beginning to get a bit confused now...
(Oh, and I'm using acrobat 9 pro)

    Connect the HDD to your MBP.  Open Disk Utility>Erase and drag the HDD icon inrt the Name field.  The format should be Mac OS Extended (Journaled).  Click on the Erase button.
    Then try the clone process again.  You may use Disk Utility>Restore or a third party cloning application such as Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper.

    ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?
    This one project I want to copy to DVD keeps saying this when I go to burn (that is after nearly 2 hrs of processing). There is nothing wrong with the movie so i don't know why i'm having such a problem burning it. i guess to start i'd need to know what this code means (I couldn't find it in iDVD help).
    thanks in advance

    First I'd be certain that I had changed the preferences from best quality to best performance.
    Did you follow the chapter rules?
    *Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the start or end of the timeline.
    *Make sure no chapter markers are within a transition.
    *Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the end of a transition.
    You may have already done this, but
    Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.

  • HT201272 I purchased an album and parts of some songs are not there. Tried redownloading and get error -1202. Any idea what this means and how to fix it?

    I purchased an album and am missing parts of songs. Tried to re-download, but itune store is giving me error -1202. I also tried to transfer from iphone, but nothing changed. Any ideas on what else I can try?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    Restart. If an application won't quit and prevents restarting, select
     ▹ Force Quit...
    from the menu bar, then select the frozen application from the list and press return. As a last resort, force a shutdown by holding down the power button for a few seconds. Then press it again briefly to start up. Test.

  • Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hey ilyaz20360341,
    Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
    You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
    If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
    Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
    Hope to get your response.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, aren't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen.  Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document.  Any ideas?

    Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, isn't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen.  Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document.  Any ideas?

    Figured it out.  It had nothing to do with the software levels of Safari or Adobe Acrobat.  Here's the fix:
    Open Finder/Applications
    Search "Internet Plug-Ins"
    Move any Adobe plug-ins to the trash
    Quit Safari
    Launch Safari
    Your pdf document should now render in Print Preview and print properly.

  • Reader XI has suddenly stopped loading any images in pdf's.  Any idea why?

    Reader XI has suddenly stopped loading any images in pdf's.  Any idea why?

    I tried to got to edit to follow the suggestion of ~graffiti I found that the "Show Large Images" was already checked.  I since have found that if I download the .pdf file and then open the download everything appears as it should.  Previously, when I clicked on the emailed .pdf file it would automatically open without having to download the file.  I'm not sure why it is requiring the extra steps of downloading the and then opening the downloaded file before the images with appear.  Any ideas why the extra steps are now required?

    I get a conversion failure every time I upload a pdf to combine - any ideas?

    Hi sharon,
    Have you tried combining any other PDFs apart from ones which fail to combine?
    Are the PDF files complex or simple?
    You might try using a different browser.

  • Time capsule won't back up - Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder. Any ideas?

    I have tried all the resets, the firmware is the latest version, the green light is on.
    But I get this message "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder."
    Any ideas?

    Do setup again.. but make sure both your wireless and your ethernet have ipv6 turned on to local link.
    Done this OK, but no idea about IPv6 - something new to me and rather Appley I think?
    Unplug the WAN for the moment.. Just LAN port TC to the MBPr ethernet via thunderbolt.. (thunderbird was the kids puppet series.. Thunderbirds are go!!). Done - New real people Thunderbirds movie coming out soon I believe!!!
    Reset the TC again.. sorry.. !! You're welcome ... done.
    Make sure the ethernet now has an IP address.. 10.0.1.2 - Yep - done that - on ethernet anyway ...
    You need to open the network preferences to find out. Yep - that's good ...
    ****** I then reconnect the TC WAN to the router - is this right?
    And then I think I start going round in circles ... boot, reboot, restart, reboot again ...
    The final result is green light on TC, but error message when trying TM is "Backup disk is not available".
    Then open the airport utility and you should be able to setup the TC.
    Do as little setup as possible and then run the TM backup and see how it goes.
    I have managed to get Thunderbird to LAN on TC to create a folder on TC and copy a file onto it.
    So I guess the drive is working - it must be the software, settings or perhaps even the operator that isn't quite so clever ...
    I named network RFG, named device RFGTC.  RFG network shown as IP 192.168.0.72
    Wireless router is BT Homehub 3 with IP of 192.168.0.254 - is this issuing new IP addresses when rebooting TC?
    I have three wireless networks here - the BT Homehub3 wireless, the TC wireless, and also a D-link power socket ethernet thingy for an ethernet connection to the telly - DHP-W310AV which is also wireless link.  All are effectively connected to the BT Homehub - is there a conflict there?
    Have several times achieved in Airport Utility schematic with internet shown as green, RFGTC shown as green, light on TC green, but no TM backup run ... "backup disc not available."
    And there are no tall building around here to hurl myself off ... at least you can go to Sydney Harbour bridge - not too far away ... it was my son in Sydney that persuaded me to scrap Windows and go Apple ... it's all his fault ...
