IDD CS6 not compatible with IDD CS8

I have a CS6 file (created and last saved by IDD CS6), but my InDesign has been updated to CS8, and when I try to open the CS6 file, I'm told it was last saved as CS9--which I don't have yet--and it can't be opened. How could the file have converted to a version of ID that I do not have? The properties information for the file specifies that it is CS6.

That's highly unlikely since no one but me uses this computer and uses InDesign so it is a mystery. When I go to Adobe Update (cloud) it tells me my ID is up-to-date, but it remains CC(version 8). What do I need to do to update it to version 9?
One more time.. CC is version 9. If you see a CC icon it's version 9. CS6 is version 8. You can have both installed, and both will show up in the Creative Cloud Desktop Application (and may show as up to date, if they are). If you have both, then CC would be the default application version that would open files you double-click, so it's entirely possible you converted a file unintentionally.

  • CS6 not compatible with mac retina display

    I recently purchased the Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium at school. (It's not the creative cloud)
    Upon installing, I noticed that all of the programs are blurry. After a quick google search, it says that when a program is blurry it's not compatible with retina display.
    I did an update on all the programs, and it seems like only photoshop and illustrator were updated to have retina display. The only other program I really need to be retina compatible is InDesign. I don't care about dreamweaver and such.
    Anyone knows if there is an update for coming for that? Any work arounds, or who I need to contact to see what they can do? I spent a ton of money on this, and was not aware that there was a retina display issue, and my software is obviously now non-returnable.

    There is nothing more to do. CS6 is now 3 years old and there simply won't be any further updates, be it just for simple technical reasons.

  • InDesign CS6 not compatible with InCopy CS5?

    Hi,
    We've recently upgraded our designer to have the latest edition of the creative suite (CS6), but we've left our editors with their versions of InCopy CS5.... and we've run into a problem.
    We get an error message when the editor is trying to open an InDesign layout file in InCopy so they can edit the assignments. DOes anyone know if there is a way to fix the issue without upgrading all of our InCOpy licences to CS6?
    ANy help would be fantastic.
    Thanks.

    Upgrade.

    I downloaded CS6 and am having issues with my print driver. It is not compatible with the HP 2600n and have tried to download drivers given to me by adobe ( (Jupiter 3) but it is not working. after a few days. Its a temporary fix and is still looking for the HP driver when i boot up. It also will not save in any print or postscript format. Does anyone know how to fix?
    Currently use a Mac with the latest Mavericks 10.9.4

        Oh boy! Acting kind of weird seems to be an understatement, aquaequus!
    What type of troubleshooting were we able to do with you? I want to make sure that we can get some sort of resolution for this problem.
    It is quite possible the battery door may get your phone in working order again. I'm not sure if the store has it in stock, but it is available in our warehouse for $14.99 which can be ordered via customer service.

  • CS6 file "not compatible with this version of Photoshop"

    We are using Adobe Creative Suit 6. Yesterday i've created a file, and today i cannot open it with any software. (Bridge shows the thumbnail but the file is corrupted.) I get the "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error. The file contains multiple layers, without any masks. Originally it was a NEF file (Nikon raw). I used vanishing point, because its an interior photo. (it doesnt relevant for the problem) I have an earlier version, where the vanishing points are defined, but the textures are missing. Main question is, how this can be??? I worked on that version for more than 2 hours. The file size is small, it's only 133.579.959 bytes (133 Mb). The image is 4288 x 2848 px, 240 DPI, RGB 8-Bit, Fogra39 ICC profile. The computer is up to date, nor the hw or the softwares are corrupted. The file saved locally, so it's not a network problem. I saved the document, and left the machine for about 15 minutes, then i went back, so the save had to be complete. (on SSD it took about a couple of secs) The biggest problem is, i have to work with a large amount of photos in Photoshop. But after this i have some bad feelings about this job. We have to create these PSD files both for ourselves and for our client for further use. (It's a huge furniture factory) The hardware has 16 gigs of RAM with an Intel i5 operating system Windows 8.1. Any ideas? (ps.: i didnt' find PSErrorlog.txt file) Oh i almost forgot. After installing CS6 my Adobe Acrobat Pro stopped working in about 2 weeks... So. The job is waiting, but we cannot wait for a long time, we gonna loose our biggest client because of a sw error?

    You write this is not compatible with this version. Did you install all updates and did you update the camera raw too?

  • Nikon D7100 Not Compatible with Adobe CS6

    I recently purchased a new Nikon D7100 DSLR camera and was quite surprised to find out that it is not compatible with my Adobe CS5 Standard Edition Suite software.
    From the little bit of info I found online, it appears that non-upgradable changes to the Camera Raw component between versions CS5 and CS6 have made my software incompatible with my new camera.  This means that with my CS5 Standard Suite I cannot open RAW image files in Bridge or Photoshop.
    The only two options I have found so far are:
    [1]  Upgrade my software to CS6 or CC:  For me this is cost prohibitive.
    [2] Use Adobe's  RAW to DNG converter and then open the image files as DNGs in Bridge and Photoshop:  It appears that the DBG converter is reducing the file size and this I assume (rightly to wrongly) that it might also be reducing the image quality.  To facilitate maximum options in image post production, I want to maintain the extreme detail that RAW provides.  I am not sure if DNG will retail the exact same level of detail and quality.  Can anyone shed additional light on this?
    [3]  Are there any other option that I have missed that would allow me to upgrade the Camera Raw component of CS5 so that it is compatible with newer DSLRs like the Nikon D7100?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    You have not missed any options for CS5 opening the raw data, directly.  The D7100 requires at least CS6/ACR 7.4 or DNGC 7.4 that will make DNGs that will open in older ACR versions. 
    DNGs may different in size from the NEFs due to differences in lossless compression or a different-sized embedded preview image or even missing Nikon-only metadata in the DNG.   In other words, the photosite values for the sensor data should be preserved but the packaging of, or the other data around, the sensor data may be different.
    The cheapest option to make PS work with the native raw files is likely PS-CC for $10/month as part of the Photography Plan. 
    Another option is to purchase (serial number version) or rent (CC Photography Plan version) Lightroom and use it to do what you’d normally do in Bridge and ACR, and then use Edit In Photoshop w/in LR to do finishing touches in your older PS.  This option renders a TIF or PSD to disk with all your raw-file adjustments and then passes this file to PS for further editing.  The one caveat with buying the serial-number LR is that a new version of LR is probably about ready to come out and waiting until that new version is available would save money. 
    One thing to consider is that the PS-CS6/ACR 7.x has a new toning model which is an improvement for most images and you don’t have access to that if you’re not using at least CS6.
    The reason Adobe doesn’t add new camera support to CS5 (and CS4 and CS3 and CS2 and CS and 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) forever is because they want to be paid for their work, and if every camera update was free forever people would only buy PS, once, and would keep using that without paying anything more until maybe the OS on their computer wasn’t compatible, anymore.  This is one reason Adobe went with CC, so people would pay a little continuously and this constant cashflow would better match Adobe paying their employees continuously, instead of having to budget for the future based on how many new customers might buy an upgrade every 1.5 years or so.

  • " This version of CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator not compatible with my computer"

    CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator are not compatible with my computer. Is there a downloadable version of CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator that is? I downloaded in both the CS6  Design and Web Premium and individually, neither worked. I have a Mac OS X Version 10.6.8

    No. if that message comes up, you are running on an old first generation Core Duo processor on an iMac/MacBook/ Mac mini and it simply is not compatible, no matter what version of OSX. It lacks specific chip components required for the code.

  • Lightroom 4 will not intall on windows XP!!!    What is going on?  CS6 is compatible with XP!!!

    Lightroom 4 will not intall on windows XP!!!
    What is going on?  CS6 is compatible with XP!!!

    Tom Hogarty seems to think it might be somewhat code-related, John.
    Developing and testing across Operating System versions and platforms to ensure that we’re achieving this goal is a significant effort that takes time and resources.  XP is substantially different from Windows Vista and Windows 7, and requires a independent testing matrix, which increases the complexity of our development efforts.
    Adobe's Brett N had this to say on the same subject (with my emphasis):
    Vista made many very drastic changes away from Windows XP (although Windows Vista and Windows 7 are very similar).
    So, your computer (the physical hardware) being able to run Windows Vista is not the same thing as your OS (Windows XP) being able to run Lightroom 4.  It is simply too old and lacks much of the programming to run LR4.

  • The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop

    Hello,
    I hope somebody can help us. I am a IT Technician in a school, we have approx 500 Windows 7 64bit machines with about 600/700 users - 200 machines have the CS5.5 Master Collection installed on them. We have an intermittent issue with printing from Photoshop (both the 32bit and 64bit versions). Our printers are mostly HP LaserJet printers (all modern), but we have an Epson B-510DN Inkjet and some Xerox copiers too. The drivers are all installed on a central print server running Server 2008 R2 and shared via Group Policy to client machines.
    In rooms where Photoshop is installed, intermittently when a student goes to print we will recieve the following error:
    The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop, or the saved printer is no longer available. You will need to check your printer settings before printing.
    Photoshop will then grey out the 'Print' button and won't let the user print again. The odd thing is that we can still print from other software such as Microsoft Word or even non Microsoft software - even Illustrator will print. It just seems to be Photoshop thats has any issues.
    This happens when printing to any printer on site, 90% of which are HP's. As a general rule we configure all of our HP printers with HP's PCL6 Universal Print Driver as it makes management of various printer models easy, and we haven't found it to limit us atall yet. We are aware the Adobe software is 'preferential' to Postscript drivers but our printers arn't, being HP's PCL is their native language. We have tried changing a printer to the Postscript UPD driver to test it but it made no improvement. We have also seen the issue quite indepth with our Epson B-510DN which is configured with Epson's latest model specific driver as our photography department use it. Since we are seeing it with different printers I don't believe the printer drivers are to blame - unless somebody want's to prove me wrong.
    Like I say the problem is intermittent, and we are having trouble tracing it down to a user, computer or a software problem as it is so intermittent. Has anybody else seen this and managed to overcome it? Since it's only happening in Photoshop is it a bug that Adobe have recognosed and fixed in CS6? The only workaround we have found for it is to go into printers, chnage the defualt printer from one to another and back again - this seems to shut Photoshop up.
    Thanks, Dave.

    Chris,
    Apologies for my slow reply - we have been busy here the past few weeks.
    We are using a standard Microsoft provided JPG image (Tulips.jpg) so we have ruled out it being an issue with the image; perhaps if we were using a PSD, maybe so.
    We have now found out what the issue is, and what the workaround for this bug is. All of our printers across our site are named in a specific format, usually [Location name] [Room number] [Mono or Colour] resulting in printer names such as Photography A11 Colour, Art A2B Colour and Design Technology A14 Colour. All of these names contain numbers. We have tried reimaging machines, reinstalling Photoshop, upgrading to CS6, deleting and reconfiguring printers with the same name. Finally the only solution that worked was to take the numbers out of the name, either by renaming or deleting and reconfiguring the printers. The Photography printer is an Epson B-510DN using a model specific driver and the other two use the HP PCL6 UPD driver, so I don't believe the drivers are to blame and since renaming the printers work I don't believe it's a configuration issue either. Remember that these printers are shared from a print server and deployed via Group Policy (using the Print Management method).
    I hope this provides you Chris, and others searching Google, a useful explanation of the problem and what the fix is. As much as Adobe won't admit it's a problem/bug, I and many others across the internet believe that it is and that it should be fixed in future versions of Photoshop.
    Thanks, Dave.

  • Print Studio Pro plugin is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 Editor for Mac

    It appears that the latest version of Print Studio Pro PlugIn is not compatible with the Editor version of Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac as available on the App store.  The install gives an error saying that it did not find a supported version of Photoshop Elements. This error has been reported before for Elements version 12 but was reportedly fixed in the latest version of Print Studio Pro. Now it appears that this version may support Elements 12 for Mac but not the Editor only version from the app store. Any suggestions for work-around on this?

    "Any suggestions for work-around on this?"
    No! 
    Not untill Mac and Adobe and Canon get their collective acts together.  Mac (Apple) has the bad habit of upgrading their stuff and not being forthcoming with the particulars given to 3rd party companies like Canon and Adobe.
    Besides the cost difference of Mac's the compatibility issues are it's worst features.

  • Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photosho

    I just tried to open a file that I had saved last night and I got the message:
    "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
    Normally I would just chalk it up to a corrupt file and redo the project but I've had this happen to me 5 or 6 times in the past two weeks. I dont know what to do!
    Things I've tried that haven't work:
    Opening in ImageReady and Gimp, changing file extention to .tiff, dropping into photoshop as smart object, opening in Illustrator, re-installing photoshop, deleting old actions/plug-ins that might glitch up the system.
    I just started a new job and I'm working on a 2.5GHz Mac Mini (OSX ver. 10.7.4) with Photoshop CS6 (16-bit).
    I am NOT saving over a server or anything like that.
    I did NOT close photoshop too quickly last night.
    I do NOT have any Nortan Anti-virus anything.
    I've spend hours reading up on this and every fix that I've found doesn't work.
    I've been using photoshop for YEARS and I've NEVER had this problem before.
    Please HELP!

    There is a problem with the latest update, Mac, and saving a PSD file.  Apparently it may not open in CS6, but will open in other versions.  They are working on patch.

    I can't open the psd file I did yesterday! It says that the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop. I worked in a CS6 version but also tried opening in a CC but nothing happens. Help
    more info:
    Photoshop never crashed or anything.
    I was working in my school's mac but running windows, and the file was being saved in the school's network not on the computer. I thought it had been saved and I also copy and pasted the file in my hard drive to guarantee a copy but none of the are opening.
    The file size was appox. 1giga
    Thanks a lot

    The problem was saving over the network. Working across a network is not supported.
    This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
        Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.  It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • Is there a creative suite CS6 version compatible with a Mac OS X 10.5.8?

    I downlaoded CS6 on my computer only to find out CS6 is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.5.8, it says it must be 10.6.0, but I don't want to get a whole new computer, is there a CS6 version compatible with a Mac OS X 10.5.8?

    It really will depend on which Adobe product or suite you are trying to install.  In general though most of our Creative Suite 6 products require 10.6.8.  Which Adobe product did you purchase?  Besides your operating system is there other system requirements which you also are not currently able to fulfill?
