IDML file crashing InDesign...Need help!

Hi Guys,
We are working in a studio full of Macs, some on CS4 and some on CS5.5, we have had a problem occur in the last week.
We are saving IDML files on CS5.5 and trying to open them up on one of our Macs running CS4 and it starts to open, stalls then crashes completely. We have tried opening it on another mac using CS4 and we have no problems at all.
The mac we are having the crashing issues with hasn't had any updates in the last week and we haven't had any other problems.
Any ideas?
Regards

Maybe a bad font. But if you post your crash report on Pastebin.com, NOT HERE, then put a link here, someone may be able to interpret it and see the cause.

  • IDML file crashes InDesign. INDD CC file opens fine

    I created a file in Indesign CC. Saved as .indd and as .idml. The .indd files opens fine, the .idml file causes Indesign to crash. No errors, just a long wait, then a forced quit.
    InDesign is up to date. Created a new document, copied and pasted document contents to new file, same issue. Shrunk one of the larger images in case it was too large to load, error still occurs.
    System: Windows 7
    How can I fix the .idml file?

    Forced Quit is not a crash. You might have a hang, or it might just be taking a long time to process if there are a lot of pasted vectors or missing links.

  • Is there any way to load idml file into InDesign server Programmatically

    Hi,
         I am very new to InDesign Server development. I was able to load tagged text and generate image using InDesingServer Java APIs. Now I have new scenario to generate image. My scenario is to load an idml file into InDesign Server, then I need to generate an Image using this idml file.
         Is there any way to do this using InDesignServer Java APIs.
         Thanks in advance.
    Thanks,

    I am not aware of a direct way of loading data from excel into
    oracle. I usually export the data into Access and then through
    ODBC save the data into a new table in the DB.
    Hope this helps.

  • Currently use acrobat 6.  getting box that states: can't find adobe pdf resource files... need help

    Getting a box that states: can't find
    adobe pdf resource files... need help!!!

    I get a similar error, but only under the following conditions:  I must be printing to the Adobe PDF printer and printing multiple pages, one at a time, and then it only happens on the second and subsequent print attempts.  That is to say, the first page prints just fine and this just started yesterday afternoon. The specific file referenced in the error does not exist, but why would it work the first time and not the second?  Since it only started yesterday, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling this morning, but it made no difference.  I don't see anything under print properties like job-options and it is a single user, unshared printer.  Thoughts?  I understand the same thing is happening in at least one other of our locations, but no one there has looked into it yet.  This is a BIG problem for me, however, and I need to find an answer quickly.

  • Issues opening .idml file in InDesign cs6 originally from CC

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if anyone has had "issues" when opening an .idml file in cs6
    which was saved out of InDesign CC.
    More specifically, the following:
    Some image links acquire an Opacity Effect of 43%.
    And not every image in the file — only a handful (10 out of 50) images.
    The (original) InDesign CC file has their opacity set at 100% (ie - no transparency applied at all)
    Are .idml files typically buggy like this when opening in previous version?
    Is this kind of irratic behavior to be expected?
    Is there a fix?
    Any input would be most appreciated.
    Thanks!

    @Lester – can you check, if the same problem occurs with IDMS files (Snippets) in InDesign CC ?
    Just export a sample image to IDMS, create a new file and place the snippet.
    IDMS is directly related to IDML. It uses the same properties and XML structure.
    Just for testing purposes…
    Hm. Your workaround is really no workaround. It is a dead end…
    Uwe
    @Laubender
    I selected one of the problematic images in cc, exported as idms. Then, created a new page in cs6 and placed that snippet file. It did not acquire the 43% opcaity. I'm not positive I did exactly what you were suggesting...or if this info is helpful.
    thx

  • Opening An InDesign CS 5.5 .idml file in InDesign CS5

    I just received an InDesign CS5.5 file saved as an .idml file.  I cannot open this file in CS5.  I still get the message that I need to upgrade half a version to
    5.5.  I am an instructor teaching InDesign CS5.  The school I work for, purchased a license for CS5 last year, it is obsolete with the half version.

    Thanks! That did the trick. Instead of Exporting, they were Saving As an idml file.

  • IPhoto crashing mac need help!!!

    I recently got a 2010 macbok pro 15" with i7 dual core processor i have been using iphoto since i got it but now iphoto is crashing my computer allowing me to do nothing but restart it with the power button. I need help please i have reinstalled the software nothing works any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and try to create a new, test library. If you can then we know the problem is with your current library.
    If that's the case make a temporary, duplicate copy of your library the apply the three fixes in order as necessary.
    Fix #1
    1 - delete  the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. 
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file,, Cache.dbt, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    If that doesn't help try the following: make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #3
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • MAC keeps crashing?  NEED HELP!! please

    i found a previous forum on here that people were having the same issue, but lets just say i need help for dummies.  Here is the error message i get when safari crashes:
    Exception:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
    Codes:      KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xe8240489
    There is actually a lot more to it but i was just trying to search based on this criteria above.  Anyone help?  im not the most computer literate, but i have tried simple things like clearing the cache, emptying old bookmarks etc that take up room.  any other suggestions? I have safaro version 4.1.3 if that helps

    here is the rest of the crash.  i still didnt trash anything bc i wasnt sure how/why that would be able to fix it? is this bad??  it happened when i was just on a regular internet browser (ESPN, MSNBC, etc)

  • Opening an idml file in indesign cs5

    I'm trying to open an idml file in cs5 on a mac.  I can't upgrade to cs5.5 without upgrading everything else.
    When I open the file, I'm not able to see the "high res display" images or the preview images.  Am I missing plugins? or what?
    Can anyone tell me how to get this to work?
    Thanks.

    Do you have the links? .idml doesn't store previews, so they need to be regenerated, and that can only be done if ID can locate the links.

    a pacnew file is used when an update to a package requires a new configuration file, but there is already a configuration on your system which would be wrong to simply overwrite.
    If there is nothing in the old, corresponding file you want to keep, it is okay for you to move the pacnew file and overwrite the old configuration.  If it is not okay, you need to incorporate your customizations into the pacnew file, and then move the pacnew file and overrwrite the old file.
    The tools you mentioned are just that -- tools to help figure out what changed.  The easiest solution is just to run diff fileName fileName.pacnew to see the lines that changed.
    Thanks for reply...I install vim and run diff:
