InDesign 2.0.2 will not load after years of working just fine

We are publishing a book (200 pages with a number of color pictures etc) and near completion.  We have been using InDesign 2.0 for a long time without any problems.
Last night, all of a sudden, InDesign 2.0.2 would not load at all.  It "quit unexpectedly" and a report was issued.  We are using Mac OS X 10.4.11.  All other applications and Mac OS X are working just fine.
As a point of reference, my husband logged on to my computer separately and was able to open InDesign 2.0.2 and the file we backed up the night before.  However, we need to complete the book under my user id as all of the work has been done there.
Could someone please assist.  We are under the gun to meet a publisher's deadline.
Many Thanks in advance.

Yes, Many, Many Thanks!
It worked.  Apparently the "Saved Data" file in the userid 
preferences was corrupted.
You are our hero.

    Hello KCC4ME,
    You may try booting your Mac in Safe Boot, as it can resolve many issues that may prevent a successful login.

    If a Safe Boot allows you to successfully log in, you may have issues with one or more login itmes (while the following article is labelled as a Mavericks article, it is viable for earlier versions of the Mac OS, as well).

  • PE 9 will not load after installing Elements 10

    Installed Elements 10 on Vista 64-bit.  Did not uninstall Elements 9.  Now PE 9 will not load; get window Adobe Premiere Elements.exe - No Disk.  There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive\Harddisk2\DR2.  Tried disk 2 of 3 from package, nothing happens.

    Tried twice, PE9 still locked up both times - I think the intent is to have me try PE10, because that did work!!!

  • Tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance

    I tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I eventually tried again and was able to contact via "chat" to someone qualified to help. The problem was that in my existing "bridge" - preference was (I think by default) - checked to startup in background on Login. I did not realize this - because I don't think I set it that way in the first place (maybe I did a few years ago) - and I could not see anything in task manager to suggest that bridge was running an application or any process - but when I learned this - I was successful in installing PS CS6.
    Yes, I'm still not on solid ground re: whether or not I want to change from "owning" the tool or renting it -- what concerns me is that is sounds like regardless of users wishes, Adobe is headed in this direction and will eventually make it financially more feasible to go that route. At the moment I think they are "asking" for everyone to get on their bandwagon, but who knows. They have a powerful set of tools, that they continue to support and advance - and along with those development and support costs, they also would like to make a profit - so I understand if their past marketing model is no longer sufficient.
    Thanks again.

  • ITunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install.  Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2.  Any Thoughts?

    iTunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install.  Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2.  Any Thoughts?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component won't install normally.
    If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.

  • Firefox will not load after a update, even in safe mode

    I click on the firefox icon
    It starts to load with the hourglass on the mouse thig going, then it does not start. I tried in the safe mode,
    It will not load
    My Computer said it was updating fire fox just before that.
    I have removed all the cookies everywhere using that CC Cleaner
    I have restarted the computer

    Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).
    See also:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Software Update not working properly)
    * [[Software Update Failed]]
    If that doesn't help then do a clean reinstall.
    Clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • After I connect an ipod thro a usb cable, firefox will not load, but other browsers work fine.?

    Firefox works fine and is my preferred browser, but after I connect an ipod to my computer it will not load. Even after the ipod has been removed firefox will still not load until the pc is restarted.

    Open the Windows Task Manager > Processes Tab and see if there is a '''firefox.exe''' process running, when you can't open Firefox and you find it necessary ti restart your PC. When you try to open Firefox and a firefox.exe process is "hung", you should get a warning message that ''' "Firefox is already running" '''.

  • Mac Mini will not load after recent update.

    My late 2012 model Mac Mini just had a software update and upon rebooting, my login name did not populate.  I rebooted again and now I get the gray screen with spinner and progress bar.  Once the progress bar loads I have just the spinner for a minute or so before it cuts off completely.  I use a wireless MAC keyboard and it will not load into safe mode when I try holding down SHIFT upon reboot.  Any suggestions?

  • Aperture 2.1.4 update will not load after Snow Leopard update

    Has any one found the fix for aperture 2.1.4 update not loading after the installation of Snow Leopard. I to am also getting the alert "aperture 2.0 or later is required to install the update". I installed my copy of aperture 2.1 using the installer with no problems so the program is in the correct location. I've seen the posts related to this problem and it does not seem a fix has been found.

    Just ran into this myself. I did check to see if there was a preference to delete under ~/Library/Preferences and one is not created since 2.1 is never actually launched. 2.1 is sitting in the root of Applications and hasn't been renamed, but the 2.1.4 update just doesn't detect that it is there and just gives the alert "Aperture 2.0 or later is required to install this update."

  • Content of old emails will not load after Yosemite upgrade

    I recently installed Yosemite. All my old emails are still there, listed under the 'Sort by date' column, with sender, subject and the first few words showing.  but the content will not load. New emails are downloading and content showing fine. I have played around with all the settings in Mail Preferences Viewing  — download remote content etc — but nothing seems to work. I have also run "Verify Permissions", with no luck.  If I search for something through the Finder, and what I am searching for appears in an email, I can pull up the email that way and all the content loads fine. So the content is all there. It is just not showing up through Apple Mail. Any ideas?

    Check the Ask before closing setting in the Terminal preferences dialog.

  • Earlier messages will not load after 8.3 ios update

    The earlier messages will not load for imessage.  The clock turns as if it is going to load but it does not load and then the cursor drops to the bottom of the imessage...

    Not unless you've reported it directly to them (posting it here does not accomplish this as we are just users like you). I don't believe this is a problem with the update or a widespread problem; it seems to be a problem with individual devices. I'm not experiencing it on my 5S. The next step in user troubleshooting would be to back up and restore your software to see if this resolves it.

  • MacBook Core Duo will not load pages on known working router

    I've got the original Core Duo black MacBook running OS 10.6.5 that's having problems with Wi-Fi. It will connect to networks at my school, but at home, it will connect (very slowly) to my Linksys G Router that works with my phone, my iPod touch, and my Early 2008 Aluminum iMac (OS 10.5.8), but it refuses to load web pages in Safari or Firefox, as well as it will not load the iTunes Store. If I turn on Internet Sharing at the iMac, I can use that signal to access the internet. This is not a distance issue as it has worked well in the past and the router is right next to the iMac I am using for Wi-Fi right now. I have had the issue before, but it wouldn't load pages from any Wi-Fi source, so I replaced the AirPort card with a genuine Apple 802.11N card, thus resolving that issue. I have tried resetting the router and the modem, but this has not helped.
    Thanks in advance.

    Have you checked for firmware updates for the router?
    If you connect to the router via Ethernet, can you get to the Internet without issue?

  • Safari will not load after installing OSX 10.7.5

    I recently replaced the hard drive and reinstall MAC OSX 10.7.5 and migrated the the data successfully. Did all the software updates. All software and apps work except Safari. Safari will not open. I did a few of the recommended tips on the discussion boards on here but none of them has worked. I went to ~/library/Preferences and put the com.apple.safai.plist on my desktop and tried relaunching safari. Same issue. I unistalled Safari from my applications folder using appzaper and then reinstalled it. Still same issue. One tip was to restore the system. Unfortunetly this system does not have a time machine backup so that will not work. What other tips do you all suggest i try? I'm currently running Safari version 6.0.2

    First, delete the Safari application.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Win 8.1 will not load after update from 8.0

    I have a M6-K010dx with win 8. Was fine for 2 years untill updated win 8.1. Now can not access nor recover or re-install win 8. Was purchased at Best Buy but was not given any software or keys. No keys on bottom. When trying to re-install system it says partistion is not there for use. I have tried to call Best Buy and they say I must buy new software and recovery disks. I have tried to boot from USB but will not do it. Have changed in bios for boot order. I do not have a USB DVD but cnan probably get one. If I DL ISO I will not have key to use.
    It would appear that as the screen flashes on and off that it may be a video driver problem but have no way of fixing if it is. Do not think I should have to buy new software as I paid for it at purchase and not sure if I did I could install from USB. Because of the lack of rercover partition not there I would think I was sold a defective system.
    Any help appreciated.

    Hi @guaranteed , 
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your Windows 8.1 not loading correctly after an update. Windows 8.1 is just an update and would not remove your partition.
    You can reinstall Windows 8 with any Windows 8 disk as long as it is the same version as yours. Windows 8 Home or Windows 8 Professional. It will install and update with no issues.
    You might want to look at this document on some different options.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
