Indesign cs 5.5 won't start on mavericks after migration

hi folks,
this problem leaves me puzzled.
i migrated user data from an 2013 imac with mavericks 9.1 (working cs 5.5) to a 2013 macbook with mavericks 9.1. the necessary java-update 2013-005 has been performed.
photoshop, bridge and illustrator are fine, but indesign won't start. it always quits at plugin initialisation.
everything works on the imac i migrated from.
as the new macbook has no dvd drive and indesign 5.5 is not available for download any more, i can't reinstall. does anyone know a solution to this?
thanks in advance, ruedi

Adobe applications need to be installed.  You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

  • Illustrator CC 17.1.0 won't start on Mavericks 10.9.1

    No plugin installed.

    Installed latest wacom driver.
    Reinstalled two times Illustrator.
    Signed in and out of Creative Cloud.
    Verdana and Tahoma are installed.
    Tried this solution without sucess.
    Here is the log I have when I try launching Illustrator.
    Thanks.

    FontExplorer is on the system, but not on the plugins folder.
    I desactivate all fonts to check.
    No other plugins, and nothing in Extension Manager as well…

    Well it's great news that it works in a test user account. Do you use a font manager such as Suitcase or Font Explorer? If so, try turning that off, and see if it works, or at least removing the plugin from the Illustrator plugins. It might be trying to open/activate a font that was added from an external volume. If that's the case, you'll need to identify and remove those items from the library. If you aren't using a font manager, look for some other reason that Illustrator might be trying to open a file from somewhere it can't. Other plugins, or other corrupt preference files.

  • My Sony Xperia Z won't start /turn on after failed update attempt

    Try this  connect your phone to the wall charger > press andhold power & volume up > let it charge for 1 or 2 hours > after 2 hours > repair your phone with SUS Update Service (SUS) http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/ http://www-support-downloads.sonymobile.com/Software%20Downloads/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.12.5.exe PC Companion (PCC)  Bridge (for Mac)   Alternatives on How to backup Xperias http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/36355

    A similar problem to the other posters, my Sony Xperia Z won't start after a failed update attempt. Following the support suggestions on the Sony website (http://www.sonymobile.com/sg/support/faq/w8-walkman-phone/update-software/software-update-failed-ps101/) failed. Solutions posted on this forum thread (http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z-ZL-ZR/My-Sony-Xperia-Z-won-t-start-turn-on-after-failed-update-attempt/m-p/401787#M20133) have also failed. When I plug the phone into the wall charger, the LED comes on red, the SONY logo appears on my screen, followed by a message indicating that "The Software update failed. Make sure that your phone is connected to the computer and try again.", and then the phone turns itself off. The cycle repeats itself with no indication that my phone's actually being charged. Since it is unable to charge, plugging the phone into my computer does not trigger the update process to start, so I can't "try again", as the message so helpfully suggests. The computer also does not recognise my phone as being connected despite following the PC Companion's instructions to 1) unplug the device, 2) remove and replace the battery (which I can't do, because the battery is built in), and 3) turn it back on (which, again, I can't do, because the phone won't charge in the first place), before 4) plugging it back into the computer. Please help... Thank you.

  • My MacBook won't start up.  After turn it on I get a grey screen with an apple in center and a circle below with lines around it and a blank bar below that.   How can I get it to get beyond this screen?

    MacBook won't start. After I power up, I get a light grey screen with an apple in the middle, a circle with lines moving around it and a blank grey bar below that.  It won,t get beyond this.  Please offer suggestions.

    I have the exact same problem and waited it out and got to my homescreen.  Whateve the problem is fried my bluetooth and my trackpad.  I tried starting it again and couldn't even get to homescreen, it stayed on the bluescreen with the wheel of death.  So, I took it to genius bar today. I was informed that my logic board is fried and it needs to be replaced.   $300 repair that I'm looking at...

  • I phone crashed and won't start up, even after connecting it to my mac, and tried the 10 sec. holding the power and home button

    my iPhone 4 crashed and the screen froze, so i pushed the power key to turn it off. But it won't start up again. I tried the 10 sec. holding with the power and home button, and connected it to my laptop, but it still won't start up. what should i do?

    Is there anything at all on the screen? Try this procedure:
    Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • PSE12 won't start on WinXP after entering Adobe ID

    I can't get PSE12 started on my WinXP SP3 pc (2GB RAM, enough HD, etc).
    I've installed PSE from my purchased DVD, with win-firewall and Avira AntiVirus scanner inactivated.
    Once installed, the Organizor starts without problems. But the editor won't start.
    I've been asked for my Adobe ID, which was successfully accepted. The window closes and leaves me again with the start screen. No visible error messages, nothing.
    I also tried to start PSE directly with a shurtcut to the .exe in the Program Files folder. No difference.
    I've reinstalled it twice. No difference.
    I also downloaded PSE12 and installed from there, hoping that this is 12.1 which might have a fix. No difference.
    I am an IT guy, so I am not afraid of technical answers.
    Thx in advance

  • Macbook won't start up immediately after battery dying

    When I plug in my Macbook after its battery died, it won't start up immediately.
    Every single time I have to press power button if I want it to start up. When I do this, it makes a really strange noise. (it's comparable with the sound your Macbook makes when you put in a DVD or something) Afterwards I can see my desktop but the screen is white/transparant and at the same time a progress bar appears. When this bar is full, my Macbook shuts down again and I have to do it all over again. The second time around my Macbook will start working eventually. The white, transparant screen disappears and after a minute or so, I can move my mouse again.
    Is there anything that can be done to resolve this?
    Thank you

    Hi Laura Hallaert,
    I understand that you are seeing a progress bar appear after waking from sleep when your computer has shut itself down from a lack of power. This article will explain to you why you see the progress bar:
    Mac computers: Progress bar appears after waking from sleep - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201635
    This progress bar only appears when your computer’s battery power has been depleted, so if you put your computer to sleep before that happens, you should not see this behavior any longer. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,
    Braden

  • Logic pro 8 won´t accept my serial after migration to macintel

    I bought and installed the update from logic 7 to 8. No problems. But after migration to a mac pro logic asks me for my serial and won´t accept it.
    What can i do - i have proof that i bought the program but can´t use it...someone said its because of the missing xs key - but i thought you don´t need that any more for 8? It does not ask for the old XS key (wich i got rid of after i worked with Logic 8)
    Any suggestions?

    Yes, you need your XS key to install because it qualifies your upgrade version.
    Once you've installed, you don't need the dongle to run Logic. This is quite clear in the install docs.

  • After effects CC won't start in Mavericks 10.9.3

    I just reinstalled OS X and updated it. I didn't realize that the 10.9.3 update was out until I found this problem. Anyway after al the OS stuff I installed the CC programs I use but after effects doesn't start. I know that there are compatibility issues between mavericks and after effects so I downloaded the last update from the site (12.2.1). The problem is that it won't install the update either, it says that it's not compatible.. What can I do? I'm stuck with no AE at the moment..
    Thanks

    The file name of the update I downloaded from adobe.com is "AfterEffects_CC_12_2_1_ftr.dmg", maybe there's a multiple version or some localized version to use since I use italian version of CC. For reference the 12.0.1 update file that I still have it's called "AfterEffectsTrial-12.0.1-mul-AdobeUpdate" (opening that ends with the same result now, with OS X 10.9 was working all right).

  • MacMini won't start-up properly after trying to update to OS10.5.7

    I am unable to hear the nice ping when I start my MacMini. I went to update from 10.5.6, and when the administrator box appeared, my administrator name was missing and my password didn't work ( but I did get the correct hint).
    I have tried starting in the safe mode to change the password, but this didn't do anything. I tried starting from the start-up disk, ran utilities(can't run utilities with normal start-up due to needing password), found numerous errors and had them repaired. Ran a second time, and no errors were found.
    At this point, I change my password back to the original password; and when I went to restart my computer, the nice ping was gone at start-up. I still had the same issue with my administrator name and password. Now though, even when trying to start with the "c" key pressed, I can't start-up using the disc.
    I have tried loading onto an external hard drive and starting that way, with no luck as well. ALL important documents and files have been saved and removed, but I can't reload the operating system.
    Who has the magic answer?

    Hello
    Usually this happens because of operating system file corruption from an improper shutdown. Your Macbook probably didn't enter safe-sleep when it ran out of battery.
    You can probably fix your corrupt files by loading your OSX installation disk, and running disk utility.
    Put your OSX disc into your macbook. If it doesn't boot into the disc, press down "Option" as you boot up.
    Once the OSX installation process starts, keep clicking next/ok until you can see a menu bar on the top of the screen. Once you see the menu bar, click on it and select Disk Utility.
    From there, you can check for errors and repair them.
    When you're done, just select "shutdown" or "restart" from the menu. Don't proceed to re-install the OS!!
    Good luck!

    Anyone know how to fix it ? i dont want to reinstall my os, but if i have to do so how can i recover some of my files from it ? Thanks~~~~~~~

    You might try a PRAM reset followed by a Safe Boot:

  • Mac Mini won't start with scheduler after power loss

    Hello,
    I have a Mac Mini here. It is configured to start at a certain time (say 1:00 AM). In the evening I shut down the Mac Mini and power off the socket where it is connected. In the morning I switch on the power socket and the Mac Mini is not starting.
    When I do the same thing with an iMac everything works. The iMac will start because he missed the 1:00 AM.
    I checked this with the current Mac Mini MC815D/A: here it works again!
    So, what is wrong with my Mac Mini? I have this model:
    APPLE #MAC MINI 2.4GHz (MC270LL/A)
    Model No: A1347 (EMC 2364)
    Model ID: Macmini 4,1
    Can this be verified my some other user?
    I use the latest firmware, and this behaviour shows up on several OSes (Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion)
    Best regards
    Matthias

    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions,  then move these files to the Desktop.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
