How do I update my InDesign plug-ins?

How do I update my plug-ins or my current version of InDesign CS4? I need to do this to open a document for my school newspaper. My computer won't open the document until I update the plug-ins or my version of InDesign. Will this cost money?

That document was likely created by a version of InDesign later than yours. CS4 is now 5 versions out of date.
Ask whoever sent it to you save it via IDML. Don’t count on a perfect conversion. Get a PDF as well.

How do I update my Nik Plug Ins for LR 5 to the latest release?

Nik has a new release (1.1.1.1) and the Plug In version I have in LR 5 is 1.1.1.0. How do I update the Nik Plug In's? I have Lightroom through the Creative Cloud and usually get my updates there.

Yep, I just checked my version of the plugins and they have all been updated in the background. I wasn't even aware there was a new version until this thread.

I'll assume you mean Flash. If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 5.
1. If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, sign in to your YouTube account and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
2. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
3. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
4. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
5. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
6. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
7. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

FireFox 3.6.8 & ThunderBird 3.1.2 check for updates never connects, nor does plug-in update or get plug-ins

FireFox 3.6.8 & ThunderBird 3.1.2 check for updates never connects, nor does plug-in update or get plug-ins
I am doing several re-installs.
I installed FireFox 3.6.8 and ThunderBird 3.1.2 on a fresh install of Windows XP Home SP3 x32.
All Windows updates and IE8, etc were done first after the WinXP install.
IE8 works fine.
Firefox can connect to the internet to view webpages, but NOT do a check for a newer version.
(by going, on the main menu at the top, to Help --> Check for updates...)
Neither can Tbird.
See screenshots below.
Neither Tbird nor Firefox will complete the add-ons check nor updates nor 'Browse All Add-ons' feature.
(by going, on the main menu at the top, to Tools --> Add-ons --> Get Add-ons {upper left} or Find Updates {lower right for any of the selections})
Another computer, same 'build' (different hardware, but WinXP SP3, etc) using a connection from the same router going out to the internet works fine, so it is not an overall connection problem outside of the individually affected computer.
There is not yet any anti-virus nor firewall, etc installed that could be blocking things, except for Windows built in firewall, and there is no blocking action showing. Disabling it did not solve the issue.
6 hours of searching has not found an answer. Trying some of the search results just to see has not proven to be successful.
Thanks.

dianej,
Try this, go to tools, add-ons, extensions. if you have more than one (the latest) Java consoles, uninstall them. You only need the latest console and it should match the Java Platform in Plugins.
I had a VERY similar problem displaying weatherunderground. It would not display the pages correctly and I would get pages of errors that stated
"window.addEvent is not a function" I spent the last two hours fixing this problem. All I did was remove the 6.0.18, 6.0.19, 6.0.20 Java consoles from my 3.6.8 Firefox. After a FF restart, no more errors.
There should be more information in FF when you update Java. No one tells you that you should go in and delete the older consoles.
Good luck
Mick

How do I turn off 'additional plug-ins' pop-up reminder? When I'm surfing websites or Facebook, for example, I keep getting the little pop-up, that reduces my screen size, saying additional plug-ins are available to play all content. I don't want them installed! Audio and video ads are annoying. If I want it I'll click it.

Where do I find inDesign plug-ins?

Thanks, Jack

Hello jack,
best you will ask this "someone" about the missing plug-in. What concerns to get one or two, you could have a look at "Third-party plug-ins for InDesign" >>>

Debugging InDesign Plug-ins

Dear all,
When I attempt to debug my InDesign plug-ins in VStudio 2005, I get the following message:
"'Debugging information for 'InDesign.exe' cannot be found or does not match. No symbols loaded. Do you want to continue debugging?"
Is there any reason for this message to appear? Will it limit the debugging capabilities of VStudio?
Please advise.
Thanks,
m.

Hi m,
Your plugin is a DLL loaded by InDesign. Visual Studio will be able to identify your plugin, its variables, etc. but not so for InDesign itself, as it does not have a file that tells it about it.
So you will be able to see the source code, variables, etc. when your own code is running, but you will only see disassembled code and memory dumps when it jumps into InDesign itself.
This is natural. You would only have the symbols for InDesign if you worked at Adobe (or if Adobe kindly made them available to us - which it does not, according to my knowledge).

How do I update InDesign plug-ins?

Hello,
I'm fairly new to InDesign and a complete novice regarding plug-ins. I'm trying to open someone else's InDesign file I was given, in InDesign CS4. I believe the file was also created in InDesign CS4, however it won't open. The message says:
Cannot Open File..... .indd. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign.
And lists about 20 or more plug-ins.
Can anyone please guide me on how to resolve this? Simple, clear steps would be greatly appreciated as I'm not very techy.
Muchos gracias!

Thanks heaps for your reply. You may be right that it's a CS5/5/5 file, which is what I'd guessed, but I'm a little curious because when I look at the file in column view on my Mac, in the little Preview window it says: Kind: InDesignCS4 Document. Is this possibly incorrect? Perhaps because my computer won't recognize anything beyond CS4 being that's what it has installed?

Indesign Plug-ins How to upgrade and install?

I have CS 5.5 Master Collection for a year now, and now that I am ready to use InDesign for the first time I can't open my files. I get a message that tells me to "upgrade your plug-ins, or get the latest InDesign version".
I'm not ready to shell out more money. Does anyone know where to find the said updates, and how to install them?
thanks!
[email address deleted by host]

@SilverCarMan – it's very unlikely that the supposed CS4 file is really a CS4 file.
You could check which version the file is you are trying to open.

How do I find third party plug-ins? (illustrator CS6)

I have trouble opening Illustrator.
I tried to update my computer (to OS X Mavericks 10.9.5) but i didn't help and i couldn't update Illustrator because of an error.
I saw on this side, that removing third party plug-ins, could work... The only problem is, i don't know which ones are third party and which are not.
I found a list of third party plug-ins, on this side as well, but none of them was in any of the folders with Illustrator plug-in on my computer.
Does anybody know how theese third party plug-ins, or another way to solve my problem?

Okay thank you, I was just trying to avoid to reinstall. I bought my computer through my school and all the adobe programs was already installed, so and can find the "install-file" on my computer.
But thank you, I think I will contact my school then

Missing InDesign plug-ins after installing on new machine running WIN 7

After installing Adobe InDesign CS3 (version 5.0) on a new computer running Windows 7 Professional, InDesign cannot open a file I created 30 days ago on a machine running the same version of InDesign and Windows XP Professional. I repeat, there have been no changes in InDesign versions !!
The error message indicates a boat load of plug-ins are missing. The first error message indicates WORLDREADY.RPLN and CONDITIONALTEXT.RPLN were missing. After clicking OK, the second error message indicates these plug-ins are missing: ASSIGNMENTS.RPLN, TEXT.RPLN, SPREAD.RPLN, MASTERPAGE.RPLN, IMAGE.RPLN, TEXTATTRIBUTES.RPLN, GENERICPAGEITEM.RPLN, TEXTWRAP.RPLN, CJKTEXTATTRIBUTES.RPLN, SCRIPTING.RPLN, LINKS.RPLN, INCOPYSHARED.RPLN, XLM.RPLN, CJKGRID.RPLN, TOC.RPLN, INDEXING.RPLN, HPERLINKS.RPLN, PACKAGEANDPREFLIGHT.RPLN, WORKGROUP.RPLN, APPFRAMEWORK.RPLN, and DOCUMENTFRAMEWORK.RPLN.
From the Help menu within InDesign, I click Updates. A series of updates for all my Adobe software were installed, bringing inDesign CS3 to version 5.0.4 yet
InDesign still refuses to open my previously created file.
The only other suggestion your help files suggest is upgrading my inDesign software to CS5 to which my company will not agree.
HELP !!!!

The file properties are shown in the attached screen shot indicating InDesign CS3 was used not CS4 or CS5. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
