Help cs4 indesign

hi i have cs 4 installed and wanted to try indesign so i put the discs in to load it on my computer but i cannot locate it on the disc although it is shown on the label of disc 2.
Thanks

It seems you use a suite and in that case you need to run the suite installer starting with disc 1. There is no separate installers for the individual apps.

CS4 InDesign not printing correctly on HP1320 LaserJet for 2-sided booklets

I'm trying to print chapters in a book, using 2-sided printing from CS4 InDesign (V 6.0.4) to an HP1320 LaserJet printer using an iMac computer. This used to work with CS InDesign (V 3.0.1) using a Dell PC and the same printer. The page prints on both sides, but is limited to 8.5 inches of the 11 in side. [My pages are 5 1/2 by 8 1/2 with two pages on one side of the page; when finished, the book is 5 1/2" by 8.5".] I've tried lots of combinations of page orientation in both the InDesign File/Print Booklet/Print Settings.../Setup and in the File/Print Booklet/Print Settings.../Printer... but nothing seems to solve this. Any suggestions? Thanks.

You need to be sure the print dialog is set up to print the pages in landscape orientation.

I'd be happy to try. Here are the steps I take, but you should realize that I've done this so many times over the past several days (up to a couple of weeks) that I try different things each time.
I've got a couple of book projects that use similar formats. One is a textbook and the second is a daily log I keep (not always "daily"). Both are printed and bound to become books that are on the order of 400 to 500 pages and are 8.5" by 5.5" in size. So, I have a file I want to print and I want it to come out with side-by-side 5.5 x 8.5" pages (two on each side of an 8 1/2 by 11 inch sheet of paper (i.e., two sided printing).
In InDesign, I click on File, Print Booklet..., and here is what the window looks like: [see attached file "Screen shot 2009-12-02 at 5.51.44 PM.pgn.]
To get it to show "Booklet Type: 2-up Saddle Stitch," I had to click on "Print Settings" at the bottom and select "Setup" and then "Orientation: landscape (2nd from the left on the choice of four orientations)." I also usually go to "Page Setup..." and make sure I chose "Orientation: landscape."
Then I go to the "Printer..." button at the bottom of the "Print" window and select things so it looks like this: [see attached file "Screen shot 2009-12-02 at 5.57.44 PM.pgn.]
To get this, I had to click on the "Layout" option and then "Booklet Printing." That automatically selected "Two-Sided" printing.
As far as choices go, I think that is it.
The page that printed most recently with those settings came out with four (not two) pages on each side of the page. Further, the four pages that printed on the back side of the sheet of paper were upside down relative to those on the front side. This may be the result of using "2-up Saddle Stitch" but I'm not sure of that.
But here is the problem that has really been bugging me: the pages on one side of the paper don't go as far toward the margin as they should. Here is one example of low-res pictures of the front of the page that printed.
The page shows two full "pages" along the left top and right top, but along the left and right bottom pages, only about half of the pages printed. The back side of the sheet of paper was similar, with only half of the "pages" showing for two of the four pages on this side.
So, I hope this is enough information for you. I'd be happy to provide more if needed. And thank you for even attempting to help. I've been struggling with this issue for a couple of weeks (I'm retired, so I sure don't spend full time on it, but I sure have spent hours at it, all to no avail).

CS4 Indesign Printing issues

Hi, We have a new Mac Pro Tower we just purchased with Snow Leopard 10.6.7. We are using Adobe Indesign CS4 Version 6.0.6. I have an Indesign project that I need to print to our Canon ImagePress C1 with a fiery. I go to File>Print, then it shows it's kind of preparing it to be sent to our printer. After about 30 seconds the printer window pops up and it says: spooling for about another 30 seconds and then the printer puts this job on pause. Below is the console logs from this users machine: Where you see "username" I removed the person's name for security.

This canon printer has worked seamlessly when we had Leopard 10.5 using CS4. It's only been since we received the new Mac Pro Tower. The Canon printer has a Fiery attached and we use the latest driver for that Fiery. All the images in this file are .tiff's. The user does have Pre-Flight on and the Print Preset: Custom, Printer: Canon Color Printer, PPD: Canon iPR Server T1 Ver.1.0. I set up the printer in the Print & Fax Dialog using the IP address, with LPD Protocol, Queue name blank (as we never had to really use one in the past). and Print Using the iPR Server T1 driver. Rebooted the Mac, ran disk utility from the CD. I have been working on this issue for a couple of days now and found many troubleshooting tips on the internet but none have worked. Is there something in the new OS X Snow Leopard that is not working with CS4 Indesign now? Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thank you!

What fonts are you using? Are they PS Type1 by any chance? The update to 10.6.7 has introduced some problems with the older Type 1 fonts. Do a Google search for Mac 10.6.7, Type 1 font problem to see some discussions.

CS4 InDesign Server hangs

I've ran into a problem where the my CS4 InDesign Server hangs.
I'm adding pages dynamically using the JAVA API. Basically I go through all the content, check to see if I've reached the ParagraphStyle that indicates the "end" of the document. If not, I add a page, flow the content into a text frame on that page & check if I've reached the end. If not I add another page. And so on until I finally reach the end. But it ends up hanging while attempting to do this. What's odd, it works the first 5-10 times, but it takes longer and longer each time it adds a page until around the 10th page or so, it completely stops. I'm using the "duplicate(OptLocationOptionsEnum arg0, OptVariableType arg1)" method on the com.adobe.ids.layout.Page object.
Any ideas? I can provide sample code if it would help.

Hi Chandi,
      If Microsoft fix is not working or it is too old to apply then go for manual process i.e.;
      In the Microsoft KB article follow this :-
     Services that use the local system account to log on to a Windows Server 2003-based computer start if the Allow service to interact with desktop
     option is turned on. To turn this option on, follow these steps:
In the Services tool, click the service that you want to start, and then click Properties.
Right-click the Log On tab, and then click to select the Allow service to interact with desktop check box.
Click OK to exit the Properties dialog box.
   This will solve your problem.

CS4 InDesign fails to install

Last night I downloaded the file ADBESTDSCS4_LS1.dmg and used Easy Install; however CS4 InDesign failed to install. I've called tech support, but the person I spoke with told me to read several articles about troubleshooting an installation using disks. She was absolutely no help. Would someone tell me how to install InDesign CS4?
My operating system is Mac OSX 10.5.8. I received no error messages. I was upgrading from CS2 InDesign. The Easy Install just didn't install InDesign.

You can try to use the CS4 Cleanscript to see if that helps. You can also fix permissions and make sure you are installing as an administrator.

CS4 InDesign persistent data changes getting lost

Hi, We have some CS4 InDesign documents that lose the latest changes to persistent data once the odcument is closed. It appears as though the write to persistent data is reverted to previoue version once the file is opened again.......... appreciate any thought on why this is happening!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Mahe,
1. You maxl does the following things
exports data
clears data
updates the outline
reimports the data
2. After you reimport,Are you trying to retrive to confirm the data ?
3. After you reimport the data, check the properties of database ( check whether the new blocks have been loaded , and increased the count ).
4. Are you exporting all data , or only level 0 ?
5. If its only level 0, You need to aggregate or consolidate ( by running calculation script).
Hope this helps

CS4 InDesign issues.... LILOplugin

Hi,
I'm pretty stumped with this issue. I am receiving a LILO.indesign plugin missing message when opening a file. It opens fine on another machine using CS4 indesign so should work. Have tried re-installing the suite.
Version: CS4 indesign 6.06
OS: Lion
Please help!

CS4 InDesign Pages taking off to R or upper R suddenly

CS4 InDesign 6.0.4, OS 10.6.2, Mighty Mouse (the new flat one with no buttons on top), Mac Pro Computer with Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Hello and Thanks again for Help. We are trying to figure out if this is coming from the newly installed CS4 on Monday or if it is because of the computer getting a new logic board plus the new 3rd party RAM (which was replaced by the co. 3 times) installed and checked at Apple.
Now, since Monday, when I am working in InDesign on my multipage documents, all of a sudden the page takes off to the right or upper right. Or all of a sudden the document takes off and goes to the lst page or the last page. This mouse has no scroll bar on top to accidently hit any more. This is making it very hard to work when the page disappears on you.
The pasteboard stays in location as far as I can tell.
Is anyone else having any problems with CS4 pages taking off on them while they are trying to work.

I think you mean the Magic Mouse (the touch sensitive one), the Mighty Mouse is the one that has a scroll ball on the top(?)
If it is the Magic Mouse then you need to turn the scrolling speed down in your preferences. I just switched to the Magic Mouse a few weeks ago it does take some 'learning' to get the movement right as there is no adjustment for the sensitivity of the touch.

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

Jpeg Help on Indesign 2.0 (yes, 2.0)

Hi,
looking for help on Indesign 2.0. They haven't updated in a while at work (or ever updated really), but I am trying to see if there is a way to save an indesign document as a JPEG file. I know it is possible with newer versions, but it doesn't seem to be an option available when I go to "Save As" or "Export". Any ideas? Thanks.

Which is why I mentioned the Acrobat export as an alternative... not the only/best way.
For a single page or a few pages worth of conversions, or instances where I want the highest quality, I do use Photoshop.
But, if I am asked for multiple pages and the highest quality is not an issue (conversion to a series of small thumbnails for instance), I prefer to export from Acrobat. Automatically sequential numbering of the files is a good thing, IMO.

How can I copy my CS4 InDesign from my iMac to my Macbook Air

I need to have a copy of CS4 InDesign which is on my iMac, on my new MacBook Air. Is it possible to do this and if so how?

Never try to migrate from one computer to another computer, this will not work.
I doubt that CS4 will run without problems, so you should consider to subscribe to the Creative Cloud.
If you will try to install it, make an image file with the disk utility of all installer CDs, copy it on an USB stick, mount these installers and install it from there. But you are on your own.

I need help with Indesign.

I am working on a book project using Indesign 1.5. I have got a new computer. Installation of the Indesign software was problem free but when i open my book project i have a problem that i can not figure out.
When i put the marker in the middel of a text and pressing the enter tab, to move it down a line, the text after the marker disappear and a red + showing at the bottom of the text box.
I will appresiate it a lot if anyone can give me help with this set up problem!

Try pressing the primary Enter key to the right of the Home Row, not the Enter key in the number pad. If that doesn’t work, look at your paragraph spacing options wherever the paragraph formatting is in that version. Space Above or Space Below might be set too high.
In the future, please both use a more appropriate subject line and provide your platform. This forum is for people needing help with InDesign, so “I need help with Indesign” is just as helpful as leaving the subject line blank. We’re here to help you.

Adobe CS4: InDesign makes server crash.

The situation is like this:
We have a client with some Windows XP and Windows 7 computers. These computers are using Adobe CS4 InDesign.
We are encountering server issues (freezes) due to the use of InDesign.
All clients have InDesign installed locally. The files they use are stored on a server:
Windows Small Bussiness Server 2011 (Windows Server 2008 R2); 16 GB RAM, RAID5 disk setup; Data drive has 60% free space.
All hardware has been replaced recently.
The Network is an 1 Gbps LAN environment.
For now, we know that the server freezes as soon as someone uses InDesign.
We presume this is because off the directory of some files may be changed on the server. Since InDesign works with a database,
it can’t find the required file and freezes.
Is anyone familiar with this problem? Does someone know if there is a hotfix?
If you know more about this or have you had identical problems as well? Please let us know.
We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Are you saying that the server freezes or that InDesign running on the clients freezes?
And what exactly do you mean by freezes? Stops and needs to be rebooted?
The only operations that InDesign running on a client system does associated with a server is to issue file open, read, write, and close operations. It is not running on the server itself and in theory cannot freeze the server.
Provide a bit more information and maybe we can be of further assistance.
