I am trying to open a document...

I originally created in CS6 version of InDesign in the CS5.5 version. It is giving me a plug-in error. I tried searching for updates using the HELP feature, but it stated my connection was not working and to try later. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks in advance!

InDesign files (Filename.indd) created in any version of InDesign cannot be opened in an earlier version. What you can do is to export to a different format, which an earlier version can open, but with some caveats. If you still have the newer version, open the file and go to File>Export and choose IDML. 5.5 should be able to open an IDML from 6. The caveat is that if there is a feature in the new version that isn't present in the old, the file will be different to a degree. The example I used to use years ago with Quark was when they added the type-on-a-path feature, and if you backsaved, any type on a path would still be in the file, but in a rectangular text box because the older version has no idea what type-on-a-path is.

    I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

    I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

  • "An error occurred sending the command to the application" When trying to open excel document from outlook 2007

    Error message "An error occurred sending the command to the application" When trying to open excel document from outlook 2007.
    OS: Windows Server 2008 R2
    If I save the document then it opens fine, messing with default file associations does not resolve this problem, I've googled for ir it and some suggest unticking compatibility mode or "run as admin" for excel application, neither is selected in my case.
    Outlook is configured to run as remote application from remoteApp server, this error is only occurring for one user, for others excel documents open just fine.

    Hi
    Thank you for using
    Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
    From your description, we can Create a trusted location follow these steps
    Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Excel Options.
    Click Trust Center, click Trust Center Settings, and then click
    Trusted Locations.
    If you want to create a trusted location that is not local to your computer, select the Allow trusted locations on my network (not recommended) check
    box.
    Click Add new location.
     IMPORTANT   We recommended that you don't make your entire
    Documents or My Documents folder a trusted location. Doing so creates a larger target for a hacker to potentially exploit and increases your security risk. Create a subfolder within Documents or My Documents, and make only that folder a trusted location.
    In the Path box, type the name of the folder that you want to use as a trusted location, or click Browse to
    locate the folder.
    If you want to include subfolders as trusted locations, select the
    Subfolders of this location are also trusted check box.

    Hi noswam123,
    If a PDF file is password protected, the only way to open that document is with the password. You will have to get that password from the person who created the PDF.

    The error was coming fro OAM which is the authentication system for BeehiveOnline. I suspect but cannot confirm that you have a cookie in the browser that has a different identity from the one you need - maybe you have logged into another OAM OIDin another system.
    If you clear cache in your browser or use a different one I think the problem will go away. If you are unsure how to clear cookies you could go to one of the websites like otn.oracle.com and log out of your account - that will flush out the authentication cookies.

  • I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!

    I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

    Try this. It worked for me.
    I discovered the same problem.  I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format.  Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story.  Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
    These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
    FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
    SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop.  Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
    THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work.  iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app.  Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
    FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP."  ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
    FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself).  Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT:  iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
    Hope this helps. Good luck.

  • I have iWork's 9 that inludes pages 4.3.  I created a document that I saved.  When I tried to open the document today, I was advised I needed a newer version of pages to open the document.  Why can't I open an existing pages document?

    I have iWorks 9 that includes Pages 4.3.  I created a document and saved it as a "pages" file.  When I tried to open the document the next day, a dialogue box told me I needed a newer version to open the file.  The information provided stated the new app would cost $19.99 and the customer ratings are quite low.  Why can't I open a previously created document in iWorks, regardless of the version.  This is the first time Apple has demanded that I pay for a new version to open existing documents.

    I am with Peter on this issue. Additionally, if you installed the latest IOS Pages (v2.01) on an iPhone or iPad and opened a .pages file on iCloud that was created by Pages ’09 v4.n, or IOS Pages v1.7.n — that document is now in the new .pages file format and only Pages v5 on OS X can open it.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • I am trying to open a document and it keeps telling me that I need a later version to view; however I have 11.0.10 and that is suppose to be the newest version.  Any suggestions?

    Hello,

    Hi Jennifer,
    Certain PDF files (dynamic XFA forms) created in Adobe LiveCycle can only be opened in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat. When you try to open these files in an alternative PDF viewer, then you will see this error message.
    Unfortunately, it's not easy remove this message and modify the PDF so that it can be opened in alternative PDF viewers. The person who created the original form must re-create the form using options that do not restrict which PDF viewers can open and display the file. If you save the pdf with Reader extended rights then you should be able to view the pdf.
    Else you can share the pdf with us as Anubha suggested above and we will check at our end.
    Regards,
    Rave

  • STSNavigate() still prompting for credentials when trying to open a document

    Here is my scenario. We have setup a public facing site the utilizes a Web Application that searches a internal SharePoint 2010 site. The web app utilizes the SharePoint QueryService to search the site. We provide credentials to the service as the SharePoint
    site is not an anonymous site (although if the QueryService worked with the site being anonymous that would satisfy our requirements). The Web server allows anonymous access to the web app through IIS. I have found that utilizing the STSNavigate() function
    SUPPOSED to allow the document to be downloaded or opened without prompting for credentials. I modified my search results link to include the function on click and low and behold it still prompts for credentials the same way it would if the url just had the
    link to the file. I am on a time clock here and I am running to the end of my rope. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that STSNavigate() still prompt for credentials when trying to open a document.
    Per my knowledge, if you try to open an Office file directly from a remote place, Office wants to know who the hell you are. If the server responses with the
    Microsoft Office Protocol Discovery or a
    FrontPage Protocol or a
    WebDav Protocol
    Then  it ask you for  credentials.
    As a workaround, I recommend to  “init.js” located in \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033 folder.
    You need to add this it:
    STSNavigate(ctx.HttpRoot + "/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl=" + o);return false;
    For more information, you can refer to:
