Help all indesign documents locked!

Hi, somehow all my CS3 documments are locked, i can open them and resize objects but can't move anything and nothing seems to be selected as locked. It is probably something really simple, but i;m very pushed for time at the momement, need to know quickly. Cheers

If the objects were on the master page or a locked layer, you would not be able to select them, and if they were locked using Object > Lock position you could select them, but not resize them, so my guess is they probably are not locked at all.
Further, you are saying this happens in all documents, so my first suggestion would be to replace your preferences:

  • Would like to create a script for list all elements and structure of an indesign document

    Hello everybody,
    I'm a very beginner in indesign scripting.
    I would like to create a script in order to list all elements and the inner structure of a n indesign document.
    The aim for me is to understand how elements are sorted and arranged into indesign, and be able to find an specific element by its item name.
    The output document could be an xml or txt document with a treeview structure.
    I would like have a rough idea of which kind of javascript code I should use for that.
    Thanks for answers.

    Hi Ossydoc,
    You can use Muse to create such a website. All you need to do is, create links in Muse for the sermons and select  " link to File " in the hyperlink option and link to those Mp3 files.
    Please refer to this screenshot :- http://prntscr.com/4xvdup
    Now, when you publish your site,  Muse would automatically upload those files onto the server and the users would then be able to listen as well as download those sermons using the links on your site.
    Hope this helps
    Regards,

  • My InDesign document has two page 1s and I can't get the page numbers to work.  Help!

    My InDesign document has two page 1s and I can't get the page numbers to work.  Help!  How do I fix this?

    Do you mean the first section is starting at page one?
    And the second one now is starting at page two?
    So I would ask why you would need sections at all?
    Did you set the controls for Automatic Page Numbering?
    If you select the particular page where section two is starting in the Pages Panel, you could untick the Start Section option in the numbering and section dialog. That would remove the section. You cannot do that with the very first section, but you should set the first section to Automatic Page Numbering if you ever want to use your document with an inDesign book file.

  • I need help. When I open my "page" all my documents were gone. I need those things.

    I need help. When I open my "page" all my documents were gone. I need those things.

    I meant flickering means...when i open combobox and click focus is going out of air window as though combobox is in some another window. once click press mouse down...focus is in combo box but window loses focus and once releases mouse ..window back to focus.  Kinda annoying effect when u try to click on combo box and select.
    Tested with html scout sample app and load any webpage with combobox , window loses focus.
    But any combobox made using EXT it do not flicker because ext handles focus event correctly.
    My windows has set of combo box and user always select different value from combo box if keep losing focus and coming back its annoying as hell.

  • Looking for Software that will preview thumbnails of all pages Indesign documents (like Bridge)

    Hello,
    I am trying to build a library of documents. But the problem is, I have to open each document in Indesign to see what's in it. Does anyone know of a preview type of software that will work with indesign documents, and PowerPoint Documents. Kinda like bridge, but will let me preview all of the pages in each document?
    My thanks in advance.
    Jackie

    If you want it for archive disks that are offline CD Finder / Winder does InDesign previews too. Avoid having to load DVD/Tapes/whatever archival media of choice.

  • Packaging large InDesign document - won't copy all links

    I'm trying to Package a 1,000-page InDesign document that has about 375 links for our archive. When I go through the packaging process, however, it only saves about a dozen images or so in the designated folder. Any ideas why it's not taking the time to resave and compile all of the images?

    What operating system specs; OS, RAM, available HDD, network or local?
    Which version of InDesign, are you fuuly patched?

    My new Mavericks has locked all my documents. How can I unlock them?

    Open a Finder window then control click Documents in the Sidebar on the left then click Get Info.
    In the Get Info panel click the lock icon bottom right corner.
    You will be prompted for your admin password to proceed.
    That should unlock your Documents folder.

    My magazine last month is still working ok - but this month's version has just started crashing for some reason.

    We can't know. You have not provided any system info, not told us what version of ID you use nor provided any specifics about the document like images, color profiles, fonts, paragraph styles and what have you...

    when i use the apple tv it puts my computer to sleep.  the last time this happened i lost microsoft word with all the documents.  i'm asked to relaunch, but that step fails.  i'm frantic!  can anyone help me see my documents again? this also prevents me from reading attachments in my mail, since they are frequently launched in word.

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • All indesign images/ texts are locked and will only let me move with arrow keys

    Hi,
         I've run into bit of a snag recently. I'm new to indesign but have alot of experience with other aodbe products.
    I recently attempted to megre several documents together. After viewing the book I deleted it and went to edit the individual documents but I cannot move any files with my mouse. ????
    Also, all my documents still have page numbers relating to the book that i deleted....
    If any one has any suggestions please let me know
    Thanks
    James 

    For prefs, see Replace Your Preferences
    If this is Windows 7 or Vista, see InDesign tools and panels don't respond to mouse clicks (Windows 7/Vista)
    As far as numbering, if the files were in a book, removing them isn't going to change the numbering as it was updated by the book. You must reset that for each file manually uing the Section and Numbering Options in the Pages panel.

    You will need the original owner of the iPhone to unlock it for you, or the iPhone will remain useless.  It has been Activation Locked, which is described here:
