Every time I try to open inDesign in starts to load the start up screen, but then fails and says inDesign has stopped working. What do I do?

When it fails it says " A problem caused the program to stop working correctly."
I tried to update Creative Cloud and update my inDesign to see if they would make it open, but that didn't work.

Some ideas/questions:
Minimum PC specifications met?
If Windows, are there other system problems to be solved? Topic: maintenance center
Installation was successful, without warnings?
Is any anti-virus software installed and probably interfering?
Try to create a new user and try there.
If Windows: switch off any non-Windows background software temporarily and try again. If it works then, enable them again step by step to find the culprit.

  • Every time I try to open a pdf file in firefox, it asks me to activate adobe acrobat. How do I stop this from happening?

    I do activate acrobat, but it still comes up next time I need to open a pdf file. The same problem occurs when I use a quicktime file. I get the drop down to let me me allow every time but again , next time I want to use see or hear a quicktime file I get the same question. This is very annoying. I went into options and chose the file to use to open rather than having it ask me but that didn't solve the issue either.

    You can check for problems with preferences.
    Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

  • Every time I click on a song it pops up and says "itunes has stopped working"

    This issue just started randomly in the past few days, I didn't upload any new music. So it can't be a corrupt file. Itunes launches fine, it's when i click on a song (any song) that it immediately pops up with the error message and promptly shuts down.

    I uninstalled, and re-installed quick time. and it fixed all my problems. (:

  • InDesign CS5 Hangs every time I try to open

    Hi there,
    I have been using InDesing CS5 for about 3 or so years now, for work. Just recently, I have begun having some problems where I try to open the program and it hangs, and I have to force quit. I experienced this about a week ago, and after looking at some other forums I tried resetting the preferences and deleting the SING plug-in, based on suggestions for similar problems. It seemed to be working again, where I could open up files and work on them fine - but now, it is doing the same thing again. Every time I try to open a file, or even just the program, and hangs and I have to force quit.
    Any ideas????

  • Just downloaded itunes. but i cant even open it, it just says,"itunes has stopped working, program will close.."

    This is a brand new laptop that I just bought two days ago. I was hoping to have itunes on my own computer finally, so I could sort out my horrible music situation. The installation went perfect. But when I try to open it, before I even get a chance to do anything, a little screen pops up and says,"itunes has stopped working.." then it will change, and become "a problem has caused the program to stop. program will shut down." so what should I do ? I don't even get the chance to plug in my ipod.

  • IPhone 4 I can't use my Safari app. Every time I try to open it, the LAST app that I had used (and closed out of) opens instead of Safari. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Sorry! I didn't realize that a message window opened up, so am not sure if my entire question showed up. I can't use my Safari app at all. Every time I try to open it, the app I used (and closed) previously opens instead. It doesn't matter what app it is, it is just the previous app used. Settings: 4.2.6 (8E200). Model MC676LL.  Please help...Thanks!

    Dear Linc,
    Thank you for the advice, John Blanchard1  and Linc Davis
    As suggested in your reference thread I removed "/Library/Printers/hp/PDEs/hpPostScriptPDE.plugin" and the problem has been resolved.
    I am guessing the the plug-in for the hp printers got corrupted and effected every thing, or became unsuitable when I installed an Apple update. I would be most grateful if you can confirm how the problem was coursed so I can understand and learn from this experiance.

  • Speed grade CS6 crashes every time I try to open it

    I looked up my Speed Grade CS6 and it stated it worked with OS6.8 and OS7. Well, mine will not open, it crashes every time i try to open it.  I have and older Mac Pro 1.1 and can back door it and different processor but am I wasting my time and money I don't have? Help!

    Not on Mac myself, but I've seen several issues on new installs that can be a pain. First ... there's some permissions on the Mac that can with some of the OS releases get set wrong ... similar to the way on the PC side of things some folks have to set it to "run as Administrator account" or something like that. Sorry but I don't know the precise language or location of that setting.
    Second, on installation some times there can be garbage created in pref settings that can cause this ... trying to remember ... it's I think holding shift-alt- while starting the program that gets it by the prefs & setup files, which sometimes fixes this.
    Third, at times you just need to uninstall/reinstall. Best done using Adobe's CC Cleaner tool, as it deletes all the preference/setup files that typical OS uninstalls don't get. And are realistically the things you most want GONE to fix this.
