InDesign CS4 freezed up and closes when editing existing files

I worked all day yesterday on a new file, layout etc.  I went into the file last night to edit it and every time I would try to edit, either copy, move , fitting, it frose and closed.
I have noticed that when I right click my mouse to get the drop down menu to make an edit this is when it freezes.
Please help.. have several projects with deadlines
1

I experienced the similar problem this morning. Only, my InDesign CS4 closes.
I can start InDesign OK, but after I select a file to open it closes after just about two seconds. The same situation is with older files.
There is just one small file that loads fine. (My problem file is 185Mb)
After a few hours of playing with InDesign I moved away from it and removed the updated fonts I installed yesterday evening and everything works fine! It must be something to do with Windows 7 on this machine, because my laptop which runs Vista and CS2 had no problems with updated font.
Now I have to find out what is wrong with my font...

  • Indesign CS4 freezes when I export to InCopy CS4 or when I update an InCopy File

    Indesign CS4 freezes when I export to InCopy or when I update an InCopy CS4 File. I have done some of the troubleshooting steps already and have already re-installed and re-updated through Adobe Updater. But the problem still exists. Anyone have any patches or fixes? Or have had the same issue and fixed it?

    Bought InDesign CS4 for Mac and now need to move it to a PC. Help!

    Most Adobe software is written for one of two platforms, Mac or PC.  In order to switch platforms you need to be using the most current version, so CS4 would not be supported for making this switch.  Here is a link to a page that explains the requirements for switching platforms....

    I updated Firefox and now, when I select File, Send Link, a dialog box pops up asking me to establish a new account before I can send the link via email. I use Outlook, so how do I avoid setting up some new account and yet am able to send the link via Outlook?
    I have a feeling it may have something to do with HotMail.com.

    It should be much easier to re-link in the Pagemaker file, as, with any luck, you can get the filenames from the Graphics Manager.  After conversion to InDesign, any out-of-date linked images get their names converted to something like "image 123.jpg", and are themselves converted to an embedded low res representation of the image.  Even vectored art.  Pretty hard to figure them out, unless you are VERY familiar with the file, which you may be.
    It may be that any cropping gets lost, too?  I do prepress work, we do some set up for our customers, but most comes in pretty much ready to go, so I don't often have to did too deep into fixing such issues. On the other hand, any problem that can happen has probably crossed my desk, or it seems that way some days!

    I have Windows 7.Home Premium, Service Pack 1.  This problem began about a month or so ago. I have tried the trouble shooter and it says I have a compatibility problem but does not offer a fix.  AARRGH!  I saw a thread about this but now I can't find it again.  It said to change a preference setting but Reader freezes and closes before I can change any settings.  There was mention of a registry key but that is over my head.  =(

    What is your Reader version?
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

  • Indesign CS4 freezes when copying text to Word 2007

    I have a user that copies text from Indesign CS4 to Word 2007 documents.  She has Word 2007 open, then opens an InDesign file and copies the text.  She then clicks on the Word document and pastes the copied text.
    She is unable to go back to the Indesign file.  Clicking on InDesign on the toolbar does not activate the InDesign window.  The only open she has is to right-click and close InDesign.
    She has been doing this without any problems until approximately three weeks ago.
    Is this a known problem?  What is causing the conflict?

    The OS is XP SP3.  We are using Adobe Type Manager with Adobe fonts.  The only other application running was Outlook 2007.
    The user is out today but I will check if Alt Tab will cycle back.

  • InDesign CS4 freezes when minimized

    As soon as I minimize InDesign CS4 I cannot restore it. If I try to restore it the only thing that happens is I can see a palette (eg charactor formatting) or sometimes a control panel. I then can only shut InDesign down using Windows task manager.
    I have no issues with Illustrator or Photopshop CS4 and the problem occurs even if I have no document open in InDesign. I also tried with no applications running and it still happens. I have reinstalled InDesign but that has not helped either. I am not using the Windows "Aero" apprearence (which sometimes causes strange problems). Any suggestions?
    I am running Indesign 6.03 on a Dell Inspiron 9400 with Intel Core Duo 2GB of RAM @2GHZ Vista Ultimate

    Seeing the same here with version 6.0.4 on Windows 7 Professional 64bt, running NVidia GT8600 graphics card(latest drivers).
    Same fix above cures it, but still annoying that it happens at all.

  • Both elements 12 and premiere elements 12 crash and close when I click on edit - preferences - general

    Elements 12 organizer crashes and say it has to close when I click on edit, preferences, general.  Also, the text displayed on the organizer screen (such as the menu bar and the folder list in the sidebar) are so tiny I almost need a magnifying glass to read the words.  How can I enlarge the font of the text?  What do I need to do to resolve the oraganizer crashing and closing problem?

    The Premiere Elements 12 Help PDF
    http://help.adobe.com/archive/en/premiere-elements/12/premiere-elements_reference.pdf
    You cannot import Premiere Elements Windows project files (prel) into a Mac version and vice versa. That I am sure on.
    Files with the Mac preferred .mov and .mp4 should be expected to import.
    The rest that you mention are probably under the should import but may need conversion, like mpg to mov.
    But you need to make the distinction between files that will not import because of file properties versus how you
    are importing the files into the project. What happens if you transfer some copies of your media stored to the external drive
    to wherever one saves video to in Mac and then try to import the media into the project from there.
    More later.

  • InDesign CS4: Missing Toolbars and Missing Plug-In

    Currently running InDesign CS4, version 6.0 on a Macbook Pro.
    I was just using the program last night with no issues. Upon opening InDesign today, Adobe Updater popped up at launch; I installed updates. Now when I open a new document in InDesign, there are no toolbars on the side of my screen. (I've tried using the tab key shortcut, but nothing happens.)
    Also, when I try to open previously saved InDesign files from my computer, I get the following pop-up:
    Missing Plug-ins
    LILO.APLN
    The document "filename" uses one or more plug-ins which are not currently available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?
    And then this pop-up:
    Hyphenation breaks may change if you edit the text in this document.
    The following hyphenation services are not installed on this system - Proximity (English: USA)
    I don't know what either of these messages mean. I'm not incredibly tech-saavy, so any advice would be EXTREMELY appreciated.

    Uninstalled the Creative Suite. Ran the cleanup tool. Reinstalled the suite from the installation discs.
    Upon opening InDesign, I got these two messages:
    LILO.APLN
    The document "filename" uses one or more plug-ins which are not currently available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?
    And then:
    Hyphenation breaks may change if you edit the text in this document.
    The following hyphenation services are not installed on this system - Proximity (English: USA)
    Also, toolbars are gone again.
