Freezing while opening Indesign CS5.5 files

I'm having difficulty opening CS5.5 files. I designed them in CS3. Then I got CS5.5 and opened them in that and saved them.
Every time I try to reopen them they freeze up. More specifically, if I double click a CS5.5 Indesign file, it freezes up EVERY time.
If a drag it to the Indesign CS5.5 icon in my dock, it freezes up consistently every other time--asking me if I want to postpone the recovery.
My fonts libraries and caches are clean. I've run font nuke. I've installed Suitease Fusion 3.
I was thinking that this might have to do with Helvetica Neue conflicts. My document utilizes this font.
I've tured off open fonts automatically in fontbook and Suitcase Fusion 3.
Any ideas?

As long as there's a problem in the recovery folder you will continue to have a problem on startup. Move the contents of the Recovery folder to a new location, like the desktop, and launch ID, then try to open the files using File > Open...
Other users report problems from time to time with CS3 and CS4 files opened in CS5 (and presumably 5.5), some of which do not show up until major editing has been completed. I recommend exporting the documents from CS3 to .inx and open the .inx in CS5.5.

Why does reader freeze while opening some pdf files and others open instantaneously?

I use pdf files created from CamScanner and shared from DropBox. In DropBox, many times (over 50%) while opening the PDF the process freezes and the error message is Adobe Reader is not responding. If you close the program, and re-open the file, it opens fine. I have saved these files to my computer and the same issue occurs. The files are 100-500kb, so I do not think size is the issue. I have reinstalled Reader (11.1.10) and there is no improvement.

This appears to have reduced the time to load a document. Thanks Jimb From: Anubha Goel <[email protected]>

Restoring a "mini save" to OPEN InDesign cs5 file through InDesign Recivery

using time machine, can I go back to a previously OPEN (not saved) indesign cs5 file to get to the "mini save" of the file? the file was open as time machine was running (overnight)
A tech person didn't save the changes I made to the indesignfile before restarting my computer, so right now on the hard drive there is no recovery data I can use.
Looking in the time machine back-ups, It looks like there is no "cache" in the "library" in any of the time machine saves. (so there is no "InDesign Recovery" file, right?) why not? isn't time machine making an exact copy of my hard drive?

Hi hasvi,
Need Template(.indt), textframes etc for the following script:
var myFolderInd = Folder.selectDialog();
var myFile = myFolderInd.getFiles("*indt");
app.open(myFile)
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myDocName = myDoc.name;
var mySaveFile = app.activeDocument.save(myFolderInd.fsName + "/" + myDocName.split(".indt").join(".indd"));
var myFolderDoc = Folder.selectDialog();
var myFile1 = myFolderDoc.getFiles("*doc");
mySaveFile.pages[0].textFrames[0].place(File(myFile1))
//~ mySaveFile.place(File(myFile1))
app.activeDocument.textPreferences.smartTextReflow = true;
var myPDFFile = new File(mySaveFile.filePath + "/" + mySaveFile.name.split(".indd").join(".pdf"))
myDoc.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File("~/Desktop/abc.pdf"));
alert("Process Completed")

I can't open InDesign CS5 file in CS6

I created a document at work in CS5. I saved it as an INDD file and transferred it so I could work on it at home. However I have CS6 and whenever I try to open this file, my InDesign loads to about 80% and then just freezes. I can't do or click anything. It never crashes, just gets to the point where I have to ctrl+alt+dlt each time.
I am using a Windows 7 computer.
I need to finish this for tomorrow and I don't have access to InDesign CS5 at all to make it an IDML file or fix any fonts.
What do I do?

Try open as a copy, and/or the script at Adobe Community: InDesign 6 is crashing when attempting to open a particular document. All others are opening OK.

AE CS6 freezes while opening a project file

Hi, I have been working on a project for past three days and this morning when I try to open the project, AE CS6 freezes at 66percent. And my MAC stops responding too. I need to force shut AE to get back in order.
This is what I have already tried:
- Renaming the project file. No go
- Opening the project in another installation of AE. No go
- Importing the file in another new project. No go
Note that the last work I did in that project was using the dynamic link between AE and premier pro. I imported a premier pro sequence into AE, put it onto an AE composition and color corrected some footage. Then I imported the AE composition into PP and exported the final movie. This morning when I try to open the AE project where I imported the PP sequence, I am unable to do so.
Could this be that the dynamic link has a bug that caused a memory issues?
Please help me troubleshoot !!!
Thanks

Flush the caches from the prefs. And by all means learn how to use versioning, incremental saving and backups...

Corrupted InDesign CS5 files

Hi, I have a few corrupted indesign CS5 files - had to recover them from my laptop. However, now when I try to open them I get "corrupted file" "error 5". Does anyone know how I can open these.
I have tried opening as a copy etc, but to no avail. Thanks in advance.

Error Code 5 is basically a flatline.
You could try a service like Markzware, see if they recover your file by converting it to quark and back again (I know seems like a very wrong work flow).
But I've heard of this working in the past. I think they'll do the conversion for you and if it works you will need to pay the going rate for the files back (not 100% sure on how they work but that's my understanding)

InDesign CS5 files openen in CC?

Kun je InDesign CS5 files openen in CC?

CS5 files will open in later versions, but I recommend you export the files to IDML in CS5 and convert those to the new version instead.

Acrobat and InDesign CS5 file issue

Hi everyone...
My issue is that Acrobat won't or can't convert InDesign CS5 files. It opens Illustrator and Photoshop and converts them to pdf's but not InDesign.
I've tried everything. I've even tried Adobe tech help. No luck. It was a relatively easy procedure in CS4, not to mention a time saver.
Is there someone that knows how to resolve this? Please help as I'm desperate to avoid having to convert all my InDesign files one at a time.

Hi Matthew-
Our workflow often involves combining multiple IND files into a pdf. With CS4, we merely opened acrobat, clicked "Merge Files into a Single PDF" and dropped in the indesign files we wished to combine. Presto- we had one PDF with all IND files put together without having to go through indesign.
In response to your post, I only have CS5 installed, and it seems as though Acrobat doesn't recognize ID CS5 as a program at all. I believe I am current on all InDesign and Acrobat 9 updates to date - I'm running InDesign7.0.2 and Acrobat 9.3.4.
When trying to open IND files through Acrobat, Acrobat launches and gives an error message that states: "Please select a file created by an application that resides on your computer."
Acrobat can't call InDesign CS5 to open at all. Could this be because Acrobat was not updated along with the CS5 suite and therefore doesn't recognize the new CS5 Indesign files?
I read another blog that mentioned it could be a registry problem- they ran CCleaner and ran the registry fix. Then uninstalled and reinstalled both Acrobat and Indesign. What are your thoughts on this method? It's hard for me to try this on my own, as it requires an administrative login- our IT department has us locked out. I would like another opinion before I ask them to help.
Do you forsee a fix from Adobe in the future?
Thanks for your help!

Problems with opening Indesign CS5 document in CS4

I have the CS4 Design Premium Academic package and am working with another graphic designer who uses CS5 - Indesign. When trying to open her InDesign CS5 file that she exported to the CS4 format I received the following message - " cannot open brochure.indd. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign. I called Adobe and they suggested to export the CS4 file to the idml format. We did that and when I opened the file many formatting features- such as no margins or grids appeared. Any suggestions - I don't want to upgrade to CS5 if I don't need to. Also, any suggestionsthe cheapest place to upgrade if I need to?

She didn't export it for CS4. If she had it wouldn't be an INDD file. She needs to export to IDML and you need to realize that this document may not look like it does in CS5.
You do need to upgrade if you want to work successfully with this other designer. Worth noting, in case you don't, is that you cannot upgrade individual components of the suite. Personally, I recommend Design Premium as the best bang for the buck.
Here's why: http://www.theindesignguy.com/purchase-advice.shtml
You find a link a Amazon on that page, which as far as I can tell is the best place to buy with free shipping and for the most part no sales tax.

InDesign CS5 file is crashing during Package - Carbonite the reason?

I recently downloaded Carbonite to try it. Now I can't seem to package my InDesign CS5 files. I am on a PC. I get the Document Font and Link Files, but my actual .indd file never completes the Package process. I need to use the Windows Task Manager to close InDesign. Then when I re-open it I get the error message that it is trying to recover my file. Then InDesign hoses up again. I turned off Carbonite, but I can't get InDesign to stop looking or trying to recover the file. Any suggestions? I have a customer waiting....... (PS - I am scrubbing Carbonite)

I've been running Carbonite for 6 months with no problems.
I think you need to look elsewhere for the problem.

Acrobat 9 Pro - Batch Create Multiple Files from InDesign CS5 files

When attempting to batch create PDFs from Indesign CS5 files using Acrobat Pro 9's File>Create PDF>Batch Create Multiple Files ... option the operation fails with the error 'Could not find the application that created this file: [path to file] Please select a file created by an application that resides on your computer.' as shown in the screenshot below:
Acrobat 9 Professional was bundled with Creative Suite 5 Design Standard so shouldn't this work? My machine is running OS X 10.6.7, Acrobat Pro 9.44 and InDesign CS5 7.04.
Any help to solve this issue would be most gratefully received - this feature had previously saved me a lot of time on my old machine with 10.5.8, Acrobat Pro 9 and CS4.

I have uploaded the files and shared them. These are the links

The first file is the problem file. If you create this file separately, Acrobat will convert it perfectly. But "Batch create multiple files" and the graphics are deconstructed on page 8

Open InDesign CS4 files in CS4 in Windows 7

Hi!
I want to open InDesign CS4 files in in InDesign CS4 but it opens with InDesign CS3. What can I do?
I also tried 'open with' by right clicking and select a default program but that didn't work for me. I also downloaded registry files from 'Windows 7 forum' to restore registry settings of 'open with', even that didn't work.
How can I manually change registry settings to open ID CS4 files in IDCS4?
Please help me!
I'm weird of manually dragging and droping inDesing files to inDesign program window.
Should I uninstall IDCS3 and reinstall it?
Thanks.

Did you install CS3 after CS4?
In any event, you might want to try this:
