How to find InDesign CS5 application folder

Hello, I am trying to install our plug-in to InDesign CS5 plug-ins folder. Does anyone know how to find where InDesign CS5 is installed on Windows platform? I am looking for the App Paths registry entry which has worked for previous versions of InDesign, but it seems to me that CS5 does not update/add this App Paths entry. I tested on Windows XP and Windows 7, none has the entry.
Appreciate suggestions.
Thanks.

We are not using those classid keys. After some investigation, we figured out that the App Paths was removed by the removal of InDesign. What we did was to install CS5, then uninstalled CS4 in the lab. My guess is that since App Paths was first added by CS4, the removal of CS4 took the app path entry out even though CS5 installer did modify it to point to the new CS5 app location, which is what we wanted.
So for now, we left the installer the way it is, looking for App Path. If it turns out that people uninstall older versions quite often after installing the new version, we may have to revisit the subject.
Thanks for your help.

How do I add my Applications fold back onto the dock? People say I must drag it near the trash can, but that just puts it past that barrier. I am trying to get it back to where it disappeared from, on the left hand side near the finder icon.

With respect, you actually cannot store folders on the left side of the Dock - only on the right side. I wonder if you're talking about Launchpad, which looks like a silver rocket and shows you your installed applications? It's not actually a shortcut to the Applications folder, though. You can certainly drag Launchpad into the left side of the Dock from the Applications folder.

How to set InDesign CS5 as the default in the system having InDesign CS4 has the default ?

How to set InDesign CS5 as the default .indd application when you have InDesign CS4 and CS5 installed and InDesign CS4 is the current default (InDesign CS4 was installed after CS5 installation)

Thanks, but I already tried it at first but it is not the effective method.
I think its because of the this reason :
Both - InDesign CS4 and InDesign CS5 have their application/program/exe named as "indesign.exe".
Installation of either InDesign CS4 or InDesign CS5, sets a Windows default path for the "indesign.exe". In this case, since InDesign CS4 was installed later (after InDesign CS5 was already installed), the "indesign.exe" which was directing InDesign CS5's "indesign.exe" was replaced by InDesign CS4's "indesign.exe".
But after long google and search through regedit, I've got the solution :
Locate HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InDesign.Document\Shell\Open\Command in regedit
Change the value of (Default) attribute to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS5.5\InDesign.exe" "%1" // Include the quotes

How to find out the application server info

Hi, I am wondering how to find out the application server info in Java code, just like how to find out the db platform being used. Thanks

Hi,
I am not aware of any spec defined way of finding out such info. There may be vendor specific APIs or mechanisms.
But you can use environment entries in your deployment descriptors to specify the information and make use of the entries inside your j2ee component. That will make your code platform neutral.

How do i get my application folder out of the trash

I was deleting some files from my computer and accidentally put my applications folder in the trash. Now I can't get it out. I still have my application folder visible in my finder but it doesn't have the Application Folder icon. It has a normal folder icon. All my apps are visible in both the trashed folder and the application folder in my finder, however, when I do a Spotlight search for a specific application, it says it's only location is in the trash.
How do I get my applications back?

Click on the Trash icon which swill open the Trash window. Select the Applications folder and drag it to its original location which is the root directory of your hard drive. You may be asked to authenticate by entering your admin password.

How to get InDesign CS5 on computer after Aldus Pagemaker and Adobe Pagemaker disks destroyed byfire

More than 2 hours with "help" jackasses who can't speak English - and hang up or cut you off.
Have InDesign CS5. Had Aldus Pagemaker and then Adobe Pagemaker 5 and then 6. They were destroyed in a fire. Can't register the CS5 without the numbers. One of the Adobe "Help" types said they would email it to me - and that has NOT happened. Anothr told me I can't use it and have to get CS6.
Another told me it was easy - and then cut off the phone.
The three others I have talked with have been worse.
How do I put this damn program on the computer???

If your copy of Pagemaker is registered you can look up the serial number yourself on Adobe.com. You can find directions on how to do this at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3987968#3987968.

Any other suggestions on how to stop Indesign CS5 from crashing?

Indesign CS5 was running fine on computer (mac 10.6.8) for a couple of years until a few months ago when it started crashing randomly, this has become progressively more frequent until it would crash at launch. So far I've:
Resolved font conflicts through Font Book.
Ran Disk Utility to repair permissions.
Deleted Indesign cache.
Uninstalled Creative Suite.
Deleted all Adobe preference files and cache on the HD and user profile.
Did a system search for anything Adobe and deleted this as well.
Reset the computers PRAM.
Reinstalled Creative Suite.
Installed all updates.
Opened Indesign and was working fine for a few minutes until I selected preferences from pull down menu and then it hung, crashed and is following the pattern as before...
I'm outta ideas on what to do, any suggestions?

Help>Extensions (or something along those lines)
Check to ensure you have no 3rd party plugins installed.
There's also the Clean Script for uninstalling Adobe applications
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
Surely something has changed on your system in the last few months, did you get any new peripherals or other things? Did you install any updates or have any other issues with other software/hardware?

How to find out when a folder or a file has been renamed?

I need to find out when a folder and some files have been renamed.
This happened when Mac OS X was 10.6 (Leopard Snow), now the Max OS X is Lion.
I use standard HFS+ filesystem format.
In Lion apparently there is a file property "Date Added" that change if a file is renamed, but the same property seems to be unused (e.g. -/-) before Lion.
I have Time Machine backups that help me to know that rename happened within a certain week, but I was looking for something more accurate (at least day accuracy).
If file system metadata can't help, I'm wondering if there is some log that track the first time spotlight indexed a specific file.
Thank you
/Andrea

Maybe you could keep tabs of the file size. If the file size grows (which it will do each time the writing process flushes that files output buffer), then the file was written to.
What I'd like to know is if there is some way to monitor the entire drive for changes and respond to stuff like that. I know that the Win32 API provides services that monitor the file system for changes, but I don't know if other OS's do... or if Java provides an interface to those features.

How to make InDesign CS5 documents lock to other users on network when open

We have multiple users using InDesign CS5 across our network. In InDesign CS4 when one person had a page open, it was locked to any other users, but in CS5 the pages are not locked, and this causes changes not to be saved. We want them to lock, any suggestions?

We have a mac environment, with a mac server. Editorial dept. opens the pages to put stories on, and at different times another dept. needs the pages to put ads on the page. We all use InDesign CS5. When any dept has a page open, it does show the .idlk file, but still allows another user to open the document. However, once in a while, it locks it and doesn't let anyone else open it, which is what we want. This all worked in InDesign 4, it started when we upgraded to CS5. We aren't doing anything out of the ordinary.
