InDesign CC 2014 won't open.

Just installed Adobe InDesign 2014 CC yesterday on a brand new MacBook Pro. Today it won't open "because it is not responding." I tried uninstalling and reinstalling...no go. It is also preventing my computer from being able to shut down. I had just been transferring some CS 5.5 files from my old computer and converting them. I suspect it is a font issue, but not really sure. Totally at a loss as to what to do now. When I Force Quit, nothing happens.

Hi jesslucia2,
Are you facing issue opening files created on CC2014 on CC version, If yes then you can follow the following article. You have to save the files in IDML format in order to open them in older versions.

If you have CC version installed , you can also try to upgrade to CC2014 version from Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App and open the files without any problem.
Thanks,
Nikhil Gupta

New Camera RAW in Photoshop CC 2014 won't open multiple Panasonic RAW (.rw2) at the same time from Windows Explorer.

New Camera RAW in Photoshop CC 2014 won't open multiple Panasonic RAW (.rw2) at the same time from Windows Explorer. If I select 2 raw files and click "Open" Camera RAW will only open 1 raw, then when I click "Done" it will close and open the second, sequentially. Previous Photoshop CC and RAW worked fine, it would open mulitple RAW at the same time. How do I fix this?

If it worked for you that way previously there isn't much to comment about. I just tried opening multiple images from Windows Explorer with Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw 8.6, and the first image would open and when I clicked cancel then the second image would open. But if I wanted multiple images opened in Camera Raw to work on them simultaneously it was necessary for me to open them from Bridge. I just did it as an experiment because I normally use Lightroom. Anyway, IF it was a feature at one time to work as you described, it doesn't seem to be that way now.

Indesign CS5.5 won't open/start after a recent windows 8 update -- how to fix?

I just had a Windows 8 auto update happen and then my Indesign CS5.5 won't open/start. When I go to open it, it gets to the usual screen but then an error message shows up saying that Windows has encountered a problem and needs to shut the program down, and will notify me if a solution exists. What to do?

Do you see anything useful in the Event Viewer logs? Have you tired rebooting? Does it start if you log in with a different username?

InDesign Mac Trial Won't Open

Hi, I was attempting a Mac trial of InDesign, but it won't open without crashing. I deleted and re-downloaded and installed, but it still won't open. Just crashes after attempting to open. Can you help me?

We're seeing quite a few reports that the installer is failing to set the permissions correctly on the preference folders. Log in with a new user on the Mac and see if ID will launch.

How do I enable plug-ins for InDesign CS2 - files won't open

How do I enable plug-ins for InDesign CS2 - files won't open.
I own CS2.
I shouldn't have to buy CS6 InDesign.
How do I open CS 2 files and get the plug ins again.

Asking the same question over and over will not change the answer.

InDesign CC 2014 won't download or install

I'm running OS X 10.6.8 (Mountain Lion?) on a 2011 17" MacBook Pro. I have the Design Standard CC subscription.
I'm getting InDesign CC 2014 Mac files from customers, and they won't open in InDesign CC.
I would install InDesign CC 2014, but don't see a Mac installer in the Adobe Application Manager. (It was automatically pushed and installed to my PC a couple of months ago.)
I suspect I need to upgrade my OS, but I've read that Yosemite is an Adobe-killer, so I'm not doing that!
Mavericks is supposed to be good for Adobe products, but I can't find an installer. Apparently it's no longer available in the Mac App store.
I have a work-around for now, but I can't be the only one with this problem!
We have only two Macs here in my office, both still running Mountain Lion.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Thanks, but I guess I was unclear.
I do have permission to install Apps. I have CC for Teams, I am the administrator.
My issue is that Indesign CC 2014 does not show up on my list of applications in the Application Manager on my Mac.
I also have CC on my PC. InDesign CC 2014 was automatically pushed to the App Manager, I installed it awhile back on my PC. But on my Mac, it's not even available to me.
I've researched it some, and it looks like InDD CC 2014 won't run in Mountain Lion (10.6.8) which would explain why it doesn't show up. Minimum specs = Mac OS X v10.7, v10.8, v10.9, or v10.10, according to Adobe. And I can't find a Mavericks (10.9) installer anywhere. And Yosemite is too new, I'm not going to beta test that.

Photoshop CC 2014 won't open any files, not even create new ones

I have a freshly installed version of Photoshop CC 2014 and it just won't open any single file no matter what I do. I also have Illustrator CC 2014 installed for the past week, and it is behaving fine, and even opening up the files that Photoshop won't open (jpg, psd, png, etc.).
I've tried uninstalling completely, and reinstalling it, and it still won't open any files. Basically, nothing happens after I click the "Open" button from the Open File dialog window.
I've also try resetting my user preferences using this video tutorial, and it also didn't resolve the problem: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/preference-file-names-locations-photoshop.html
Has anyone else experienced this or can give information on how to resolve it?
Thanks!

Well, I finally got it to work through trial and error. Here were the steps that I used to get it to work:
1) Make sure that you are not behind any firewall/VPN/etc, just a direct connection to the internet (if possible). I use Adobe for my work laptop, and I was informed that this could potentially be an issue during installation processes.
2) Uninstall Photoshop via the Creative Cloud application interface.
3) Right-click on the Creative Cloud icon from the system tray and "Quit" (it was automatically started for me from a previous bootup)
4) Right-click on the Creative Cloud desktop icon and choose "Run As Administrator"
5) Re-install Photoshop
After performing the above steps, I can now open any png/jpg/gif/etc file, as well as start a new file. I have no clue why it works or if my steps played any role in fixing it, but I thought it was worth sharing for others to try if they encounter a similar issue. It could be either the firewall I was behind, or the permissions (I don't think Creative Cloud boots up running as administrator). But I am in no position to say I know the exact resolution. Hope this helps!

Premiere Pro CC 2014 won't open "because it is not responding".

When trying to open Premiere Pro CC 2014 it won't open and I get the message "You can't open the application "Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014" because it is not responding.
I've done my updates, uninstalled it, reinstalled it. Even did a clean re-install of the Yosemite OS but nothing. It opens up fine on my laptop.
I'm on an iMac 27, late 2009.
2.66 GHz Intel Core i5
16GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
Really need this to work asap.
Thanks.

A variety of issues can cause PPRO to crash on launch. Here are some of them:
a problem with the Preferences, or some other pref-related file in the Profile-<USERNAME> bin.
the graphics driver
having an integrated graphics chip as well as a graphics card. Disabling the integrated chip often fixes this.
having Nvidia CUDA drivers installed on a system with an AMD card
third-party plug-ins
a problem with the cache files.
a problem with the project file (if you're loading a project...)
folders that Premiere writes to being set to read-only
the user not having administrator rights
a conflict/incompatibility with some OS setting
a problem on the licensing/authentication side.
The fact that you've done a fresh installation of 10.10 eliminates some of those possibilities.
After a crash on launch, does a dialog box eventually come up prompting you to submit a crash report to either Adobe or Apple? If so, please click "information" or the like to access the crash log and copy/paste the report here.

Indesign CS4 files won't open in CS6

Installed CS6 on new MBP. Moved CS4 design files over to new computer.
Files won't open in CS6. Get the following message:
Cannot open "filename.indd". The file "filename.indd" is damaged (Error code: 4).
This happens with ALL of my CS4 Indesign files. (*Note: they DO open on old MBP)
I tried exporting one as IDML on old machine - same thing.
Any suggestions? I was told all older version files will open in NEW CS versions. True?

The Voodoo is in the basics. - turn it off...turn it on?
I just quit InDesign CS6 and reopened...now all of my files are opening fine in CS6!
@Bob - just to double check - moved files from old mbp - onto external hd - then brought them over to new mbp...is there a better way?

Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 won't open under my current admin profile.

I recently installed Adobe CC 2014 suite on my Windows 7 OS. All the programs open properly with the exception of Illustrator CC. The error message I get is:
Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Since receiving this message I have gone through other forum posts and have tried all (below) with no remedy.
Uninstalled using Windows Uninstall Program followed by Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and reinstalled. (I’ve done this numerous times. I also removed any prior software versions (CS5) along with preceding software preferences.)
All of my OS drivers have been updated.
Monitor, Processor and GPU Drivers are updated. NOTE: I’m running an Intel Core i7 960 3.2GHz processor and an AMD Radeon HD 6700 Series GPU.
I’m running my workstation as an admin user, however created a shared user group so InDesign would open properly. (This was my other problem I was having up until a few hours ago.)
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Verdana and Tahoma TTF fonts.
I am not running or have installed any 3rd party plug-ins.
I read a forum post that said you can get around this problem by creating a new admin account. I did and was able to open Illustrator under that profile; however I’m still unable to open it under my existing admin account. How can I get around this? There must be a way to get Illustrator to open in my current account.
Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated. I’m now on day No. 2 trying to get this solved.

Hello Mylenium,
Is this what you need to determine what is causing Illustrator CC to crash upon opening the program?

Illustrator CC 2014 won't open "could not complete requested operation"

I can not get my Illustrator CC 2014 to open any longer. Lately when I try to open the program I get the following error; "Could not complete requested operation". My other Creative Cloud applications, Photoshop, InDesign, and Acrobat are all working. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have jobs starting to pile up.

accupub,
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Are you using the Suitcase Fusion 5 software ? If yes than please update the plug-in from the Extensis web-site. There was a known issue with AI CC 2014 latest update & Suitcase Fusion 5. The latest update of the Suitcase Fusion fixes this issue.

InDesign CC 2014 won´t package my files

When I try to package my files with CC 2014 version, the procedure freezes after I click on "continue" at the Print Instructions. Then nothing appears but my file. Then I try to close the file and an error window appears showing a message that InDesign has to be launch again. It only happens with the 2014 version. I converted my files to "idml" to open and package them on the CC version. That's the only way I can package them. Thanks

Thanks for responding, much appreciated.
The fonts themselves are definitely ok. I have tested them without the '/' in the title and they package fine.
Example font is "SymbolITC Bk/Bd BT"
To test the font, I removed the "/" form the name, uploaded it as a new font, changed the font in the document and packaged it fine, so it has to be the name that is a problem - although it has never been an issue before.
We usually supply full packaged artwork with a high resolution pdf as standard. Printers can then adjust the artwork at production stage if they need to (colours etc) to get the best result. Also, I need to share files with other designers within our agency.
Ican work around this by removing the "/" but it would be very time consuming, and older jobs we may need to access and update in the future which use the "/" named fonts would not work and would have to be changed every time which is not ideal

InDesign CC 2014 won't start - World record and a bug

Seems to be a common issue where InDesign won't start. All sorts of advice all over the Internet, much of it useless.
Spent a couple of hours trying various thing and finally found and deleted the PC preferences files.
Set a new world record: 126 copies of InDesign running at once.
One would think Adobe would write the program to let you know another instance is already running before launching it yet again.

OS?
Which CC 2014.?
