Indesign CS 4 will not launch

I had to buy a new computer as my mac book pro expired. After uploading all files i tried to launch Indesign CS4 and it would not launch but gave me an error code 150:30. can anyone help me out here?

Sometimes migrating an InDesign installation to OSX 10.9 will work. I have a customer who lately did that with InDesign CS5 and astonishingly it worked for him (OSX 10.6.8 => OSX 10.9.?). I would have never adviced him to do so. Also all other apps in his CS5 Design Suite did work. Was it by chance? Fingers crossed, that he could work on flawlessly…

  • InDesign CS5.5 will not launch on new MacBook Pro

    I have a new MacBook Pro and a new install of CS 5.5. All apps launch and run with the exception of InDesign. Trying to open a new or existing InDesign filr results in the spinning beach ball of death that can only be exited by a force quit; InDesign not responding. Anyone else experience similar? Any suggestions?

  • InDesign CC 2014 Will Not Launch

    I am running Windows 8.1, and I have been trying to get InDesign CC 2014 to work all night. I looked up on these forums possible solutions, but they either do not work, or do not apply. When I attempt to delete preferences to make it work, the folder is empty and has nothing to delete. I also ran the Cleaner tool, but when I check the report, it says it failed. I am at a loss. Does anyone have other solutions?

    The problem here is the installer failed to set the permissions on the preference folders, so ID cannot write them (which is why they aren't there). Find the two Adobe folders under Appdata/local and appdata/roaming and set both System and your user to full control for the folder and subfolders.

  • Indesign CS4 will not launch in Windows Vista

    Indesign CS4 will not launch but all other CS4 programs will in Windows Vista, has been worked perfectly up until mid february, I have spent two weeks dealing with Adobe support, and finally I ran “Windows Installer Clean Up” and restarted as requested on phone call to adobe today, then ran “WinCS4Cleanupscript” which inform me that it was clean (or words to that effect) and restarted. Did new install of CS4, at registration I noticed that the Reg Form was pre filled and with my preferences which was a bit strange. After all that Indesign still does not launch but is running. Please can anyone help.

    This is the earlier thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/2621367#2621367
    I think the onus is on Rapport to sort its software to prevent it interfering with other applications, and there is a post in that thread that indicates that Rapport is both aware of the problem and is working to overcome it.
    I would hope that Adobe itself would have picked up this problem by at least monitoring this forum, but other than adding it to the knowledgebase for its technical support, which I don't expect is an overnight thing to do, I can't see what else it would be expected to do.
    Perhaps if anyone from Adobe is monitoring this problem they could chime in here and let us know what the position is. I strongly suspect that Trusteer may have been the reason I couldn't get InDesign to run under Windows 7, and so I rolled the whole shooting match back to XP. I am planning to reinstall W7 with the knowledge that I may have to toggle Trusteer on and off to run InDesign, but it would be helpful to have some assurance from either party that a fix is on its way.
    In the previous thread the Rapport response implied there was reference to the problem on its FAQ page. If there is I can't find it.

  • Photoshop will not launch

    I recently purchased a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard.  I installed Creative Suite 4 Design Standard.  Ilustrator and InDesign run well, but Photoshop will not launch.  Do I need to uninstall the entire suite and reinstall it again, or can I just reinstall Photoshop?

    I downloaded updates from your website and Photoshop is now running.

    CS4 works just fine on Snow Leopard (even CS3).  Lion has some bugs that
    cause problems with older versions. And we need to know more about why you
    can't launch Photoshop. What error message do you get?

  • Bouncing logo icon in dock, but will not launch

    For some unknown reason, both my Photoshop and Indesign CS3 programs (running on my PowerBook Titanium) will not launch. Both logo icons bounce in the dock for a few seconds, then stop without any windows diplaying...
    Anone here experience the same issue?... or is this just a clever way of Adobe pushing you toward yet another upgrade?
    Thanks!

    Have you tried resetting the program preferences? Hold down Ctrl+Option+Shift+Command as you launch InDesign. It's a long shot, I guess.

  • BB Desktop Software will not launch

    PC, running Windows XP  - Upgraded to new BB Desktop Software.  Was working for about a month.  Now, Will NOT launch - getting Windows Error
    Error Signature:
    EventType : clr20r3     P1 : rim.desktop.exe     P2 : 6.0.1.18     P3 : 4cfdab9c
    P4 : microsoft.practices.composite     P5 : 2.0.1.0     P6 : 4cfdaa3a     
    P7 : 12b     P8 : 50     P9 : sclhiaanmqhkf4zdfpvvwejkphnm1zuj 
    I re-connected to BB and loaded the "fix" versus the fuill version and still cannot load.
    From the Windows Control Panel - Removed the BB Desktop Software and re-booted the PC.  Re-Loaded the full Desktop Software from the BB website.  Still NOTHING - except for the Windows errror.
    Dead in the water.  Cannot launch the BB Software to connect and synch BB Storm!  iPhone on Verizon is looking better and better.  Mid-February is NOT coming soon enough. 
    Help!

     No one is "dueling" , we are tying to fix your problem.
    Re-stating my Problem:
    1.  I had loaded BB DM6 on a Windows XP PC about 3 months ago with no problems.  In fact, it linked with all aspects of Outlook that I needed  (Calendar, Task and Contacts).  Yeah!!  This did not happen with the 'original' BB DM that I loaded January 2009 when I bought the BB Storm from Verizon, but I lived with this short coming of BB.  Built my calendar and contacts directly into the BB Storm.
     So the original installation of the desktop manager software loaded in January 2009 did not correctly function with Outlook.
    2.  OK.  So something happened last week and the BB DM6 will not launch without getting the error message that I put in my 1st Posting of this Problem.
    "So something happened". We can only go on your description of the problem. If you have no idea what happened  i couldn't possibly know.  The only "guess" would be an there was an auto update to existing software or you have added software.
    3.  I went to BB and loaded the "Fix" for PC.  Also, this did not Launch BB DM6.
    4.  Unloaded the BB DM6 with the Windows XP Control Panel "Remove Program".  Re-Booted the PC.  Then, went to BB and reloaded the BB DM6.  Same error message and no Launch.
    Try using the repair/modify option in the Remove Program function on the DM installation currently loaded on the PC.
    5.  I am far from the "Techie" that the respondants to this Problem are!!  I am a SIMPLE End User of this BB Storm having mucho problems ... all of a sudden ... last week after using BB DM6 without the problems.
    6.  What can a SIMPLE, non-techie End User do?  From the Respondants Postings .. I am reading about Loading Roxio for BB DM from the Roxio website?  Also, reading about that the Unload from the Windows XP Control Panel, Remove Programs, is incomplete for the removal of the BB DM6.  I am being directed to removing 'hidden' files/keys as directed in a BB Problem Solving Posting for the CLEAN Removal of BB DM6--- which is surely not written for the SIMPLE, non-techie End User!!
    The error indicates a problem with some Roxio software. If you were using DM with Media manager prior Roxio was a part of that software, or you are running Roxio software.The Roxio information I gave you was to remove Roxio drivers not load Roxio software.
    In your description of the January 2009 install  there were problems with the install that were never correctly addressed. What we are suggesting is to remove all traces of the Various installation of desktop manager which includes editing the registry. That is why using Windows remove programs is not sufficient.
    Once complete you will be installing a fresh copy of DM on your system, this will ensure that the DM software can correctly integrate wit both Windows and MS Outlook
    The install procedure is SUGGESTED as the best resolution to your problem. Whether you run it or not is your decision.
    7.  In simple non-Techie language for this SIMPLE, non-techie End User ... what can I do to fix the problem and be able to launch BB DM6 from my Windows XP PC??
     This is as plain "non-techie" as I can write it.

  • Firefox will not launch, but shows in task manager, after updating graphics drivers to AMD's 13.1.

    Hi,
    After updating to the AMD 13.1 drivers, on my 5770, Firefox will not launch; it does, however, show in the task manager. I should note that it will start in Windows safe mode; when I had it open in safe mode, I used that time to disable all plugins, add-ons, extensions, and created a new profile. This did not help. I also tried launching Firefox in to its safe mode, and had no luck with this either.
    I experienced this problem once before, when trying to update to a previous version. I believe I was moving from 12.1 to 12.4, but I'm not 100% sure of that. Ultimately, my solution then was to retrograde back to my previous driver. The steps mentioned in the previous paragraph did not help at that time, not did a complete reinstall.
    15 years of computer repair experience, and this has me baffled.
    Thank you to anyone who might be able to help.
    Possibly relevant specs.
    Windows 7 Ultimate x64
    AMD Phenom II x4
    6BG Ram
    AMD 5770 graphics, running Catalyst 13.1

    By any chance, did you disable Firefox's use of hardware graphics acceleration? To avoid a round-trip through Windows Safe Mode, you could try adding these to your prefs.js file while Firefox is closed.
    To quickly open the folder with the correct prefs.js file, you can use
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Because Firefox may overwrite change to this file at shutdown, you should edit it after closing Firefox and allowing a few moments for Firefox to finish updates to the files.
    These are the preferences I think are most relevant:
    user_pref("gfx.content.azure.enabled", false);
    user_pref("gfx.direct2d.disabled", true);
    Does that make any difference?
