How to open a idml file created by CS6 in CS5?

I created a file in InDesign CS6 and saved as idml file yesterday.
But today I can not open either in CS6 or CS5 version.
It says
"Cannot open the file "Project #3.idml". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application."
Is there anyother way could open this file?

I chose from the drop-down list.
Maybe not.
Anyway, thank you very much!

Cannot open an idml file created in CS5.5 in either CS5 or CS5.5

I have exported a CS5.5 file to idml but I cannot get it to open in either CS5 or CS5.5. Below is a screenshot of the error I get in both versions.
I have tried getting rid of all 3rd party plugins and resetting preferences to ID defaults in both CS versions but I always get this error. This testtest doc is a new file opened in CS5.5 with a text frame and a few words in 'Basic Paragraph' style and that is it. I checked for updates for both versions and there were none.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Janine
IDCS5 v7.04.553
IDCS5.5 v7.5.2.318
OSX 10.6.8

Could you please email the file to me?
Received.
I have seen this problem before. I do not know what causes it (I suspect a corrupt InDesign installation), but I do know how to fix it.
IDML files are .ZIP files containing XML.
Inside the IDML file there is a file called "designmap.xml". In your case, it starts (ok, line 2) like this:
<?aid style="50" type="pi_for_SaveBackINX" readerVersion="6.0" featureSet="257" product="7.5(142)" ?>
But typically it would look like this:
<?aid style="50" type="document" readerVersion="6.0" featureSet="257" product="7.5(142)" ?>
The difference is sufficient to cause it to not be properly parsed.
So, to fix this problem, you can rename the .IDML file to .ZIP, unzip it, edit the designmap.xml changing pi_for_SaveBackINX to document, re-zip it, and rename it back to IDML. (Make sure not to change the directory structure when you do this.)
Edit: Oops, forgot to include the evidentiary screenshot:

How to open Freehand 8 files in Illustrator CS6

You used to be able to open Freehand 8 files in Illustrator CS4 by changing their extension to .eps, but that trick appears to no longer work with CS6. Has anyone figured out a trick with CS6 to get them to open?

What a weird thing to do. It wasn't a "trick" or something at all.

How to open an ID file created with Adobe Cloud using CS5

I have created files using InDesign using the trial version of Creative Cloud. My trial period has ended - I do not need all the programmes that are part of CC. How can I open my files using my original CS5?

May I say that if one is using a trial version, before the trial ends, export to IDML any important documents...
If you upload it to dropbox.com or another document sharing service and provide a link to it, someone can open and export for you. If I'm around when I see the link, I'll do it but I don't plan on staying up late.

How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?

How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?
I have several files that has been saved in a cc2014 version and I can't open them in my CS6 version of Indesign.
I don t have access to anyone who have the cc 2014 version to convert the file.
How can I do it from my cs6 version?
THANKS!

You can't do it from CS6.
You have to export to IDML from InDesign CC2014 (or whatever the version it was created in) and then open the IDML in the earlier versoin of InDesign.
All explained in the FAQ on the main forum page.

CS5 cannot open .idml file exported from CS6

I've seen this question before from people having problems with other versions of InDesign. I, too, am having an issue with plug-ins that do not allow me to open an idml file. I downloaded the script that verifies the version used to create the idml to be sure it really was made from CS6, not CS5.5. It's not an empty file as it is 3.3mb Interestingly, when the customer packaged the file it came up with no links. It's a 32-page document with lots of photos, graphics, etc. How it is possible that it would not have any links? Any suggestions short of having to upgrade to CS6 would be helpful. Thank you.

Hi Peter,
I'm guessing it might have been a network corruption problem. She brought in her laptop, we made another .idml file and loaded it to a USB stick, then transferred it to my computer. The file opened just fine. And yes, she had pasted all her images, so we have her collecting the bits and pieces for me to review and relink everything. I believe I have the patch, but will double-check. Thanks!

I received a psd file created in CS6 for MAC, I am unable to find the layers when I open it in photoshop in Windows. What can i do to edit the files?

I received a psd file created in CS6 for MAC, I am unable to find the layers when I open it in photoshop in Windows. What can i do to edit the files? What can be done so that I can either open and see the layers or how can the sender save it in a way that it doesn't "merge" the layers in some way to just one?

Could try saving as tiff provided layers and transparency are chosen at the time of saving. But it's hard to give a definitive answer as it depends on the final usage. For example PSD's tend to work better in applications like In Design in comparison with tiff.

How to open a .MAT file in LABVIEW

Hey everyone,
I currently have a .MAT image file which I would like to open in LABVIEW to apply some image filters. However, I am unsure as to how to open the .MAT file in LABVIEW. Ideally I would like to be able to open the .MAT file without using matlab, and it seems the only way to accomplish this task is through the mathscript node. I have attached an example of the image im trying to open, as well as the LABVIEW program which I would like to use on the image. Thanks for the feedback! =]

Hi Boiler,
1) Do you have a choice in the format you export your data from MATLAB?
"ASCII Format
Complete the following steps if you want to import or export data between LabVIEW and the MATLAB® environment, the process is straightforward as long as you are using ASCII format.
From the MATLAB® environment to LabVIEW
To save a vector or a matrix Xin ASCII format with tab delimiter, enter the following in the command window or m-script file in the MATLAB® environment:
>>SAVE filename X -ascii -double -tabs
This creates a file whose name is filename, and it contains the data X in ASCII format with a tab delimiter.
Import the file into LabVIEW using the Read From Spreadsheet File VI located on the Programming»File I/O palette.
2) Have you tried using the mathscript node? Did you get any errors?
"Binary Format
Complete the following steps if you want to import or export data between LabVIEW and MATLAB®.
From the MATLAB® environment to LabVIEW
To read a .mat file in LabVIEW would require a VI to parse the file. This may be easier if each variable is saved to a separate file.
" -- this was done here, no ideas if it still works,
I want to read a Matlab MAT file into labview
Hope this helps, James

How to open a local file from javascript in a jsp-page

Hi
I have created an iview from a PAR file. In the par file I have a jsp-page with some javascript code. From the javascript coe I want to open a new window with an Excel file.
I have tried window.open("c:
test.xls", "test_window"), but it doesn't seem to work. I have created a small HTML page locally with the same command and there a new window opens with the Excel file.
If I change the local file path with an URL it also works.
Any idea how to open a local file ?
Thanks
/Jakob

Jacob,
I'm not 100% (but 99,9%) and it has to do with security ristrictions of the browser not allowing to have local workstation interation from the web. This is ofcourse very dangerous if the browser would allow it... So therfore it is blocked. What if somone would point to a file/executable that formats your drive so for that reason it is not allowed to have web interaction with a local file. Only with Java Applets this is possible but still with many limitations, and what I remember Google Gears and Adobe Air do have some limited web 2 local file interaction... So best and most simple solution you are left with is pointing to a url instead of a file on a c:\ drive.
PS The reason why it works when you start the html from your local PC has todo with the fact that the browser detects that the html is not running in the web at that moment therefor allowing the access.
Cheers,
Benjamin Houttuin

A .exe file is a Windows executable. OS X does not run Windows programs. If you need to use .exe files then you will need to install Windows on your Mac:
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.
