Indesign CS5 keeps crashing when deleting pages

Hi folks,
I'm working in CS5 Indesign on a long document (on a deadline) and trying to delete pages from the pages panel when it just crashes.
I am working on an Apple Macbook with OS 10.74 and my Indesign is updated to 7.0.4.
I have been using Indesign all week with no problems and then just an hour ago it starts to crash?
I don't get any blank warning boxes it just shuts down.
Any ideas would greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

I had this problem occur also in CS5. I could only insert one page at a time, if I tried to insert any more than that Indesign crashed.
The document I was working on had two separate Master Pages, Master-A (a 2 page spread) and Master-B (Single page). I found that by deleting the Master-B the problem was solved, I could insert as many pages as needed.
Hope this helps.

InDesign CS5.5 crashes when deleting empty pages. Help!

Hello all,
I'm having an issue with InDesign CS5.5 running on 10.7.5. I have two empty spreads that I need to delete but everytime I try to, it prompts:
"The affected pages contain objects. Delete the pages anyway?"
I click Okay and InDesign crashes all the time. There are no objects on the page, I've applied no master, unhid and unlocked everything and can't figure it out! Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Peter!
Thanks for the speedy reply! I exported my "corrupt" InDesign file to .IDML and re-openned it. I was able to delete the extra pages which had some .psd files on it that I couldn't see earlier.
My question is can I just re-save this .IDML file back as a .indd file? What changes happen in between .IDML and .INDD if any? Everything looks the same to me but I was wondering if anything changed. Thanks!

InDesign Cs5 keep crashing when open this file

Hi guys,
I am back for another problem with my InDesign. It's been a while since my last problem...
Right now I'm facing a new problem and I hope you guys can fix this with me..
So the problem is that just on this file.. Everytime I try to open it, it just crash. But it is fine when I open other files. Yesterday it was fine when I export as PDF, and even package the file. This morning when I tried to open it, it just crash...
The solutions I tried :
Troubleshooting 101: Export to .idml or .inx to clear file corruption
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/526991
(I cannot open the file because it says that the file is missing or in any other place..)

and none of that works.
I even tried save As. Still not working..

I forgot to do back ups yesterday because I don't bring my external HD. And now I regret it
Please help?
Thank you!
Have a nice day!

Hi Peter,
I was trying to export it as .idml and the program crash, so maybe it says file cannot be open because missing maybe because it wasn't finish to export and got crash. Maybe that is why I can't open it.
well the thing is that my work InDesign Cs5 is bootleg (boo! i know )
and i was once told not to update them. so i never update until now..
unless you have a thread where i can read the manual how to update bootleg?
Thanks Peter!

InDesign CS5 keeps crashing when I try deleting master pages.

I am working on a CS4 template (converted to CS5) and each time I try deleting a master page, InDesign crashes. I have also tried the Adobe InDesign 7_0_3 Patch All update but it has not helped. Any tips?

That worked! Thanks for the tip

InDesign CS5 keeps crashing when trying to open (windows 7)

I have the master suite collection and have no issues with the other programs. I don't use InDesign as much as some of the other programs, but now I am trying to use it, and it will not open. The purple box comes up saying that it is initializing, then I get RunTime Error! Program: C... This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. After reading a few posts on the forums I tried to update with the 7.0.4 patch, however, this has done nothing for me. I would reinstall but my Adobe account is no longer showing my download info for my purchase.

Are you sure you've logged in with the same ID? YOu might call customer service and see if they can find the order, too.
As far as fixing what's wrong, it does sound like a bad install. You could try running the installer again without uninstalling first, and it might recognize the existing serial number (select repair in the installer), but the odss of it actually working are about 50/50 at best, I think.

I got the same problem. I tried to import into Flash cs3, cs4, cs5 - constant error in each application.
But seems I've found the reason why this happened in my case.
I just deleted the installed system video codecs (divx, xvid, third-party codecs).
I do not see a direct connection with the import objects into flash. But fact, immediately after the removal of codecs it has to work.
I suspect that the reason could be a third-party codec that is associated with playing QuickTime. Maybe.
Also if it does not help you this way, I used a temporary solution.
Open the psd in Adobe Ilustrator, copy images to clipboard, paste it into flash.
In my case the images are not displayed on the screen after insert, but put into the library.
Don't touch objects, just save the file, close the Flash.
Launch Flash and open saved file. In my case in the first run was an error.
Close the application and open it with file again.
The second time the error was not followed, the images were within the document 8-)
This option made it possible to work until the issue is not solved completely (adobe, wake up!).
win7 64, cs5 (cs3, cs4 had the same issue)
Perhaps it can be useful for someone.
thx
Sorry for my English.

InDesign CC keeps crashing when I try to place any PDF's

InDesign CC keeps crashing when I try to place any PDF's - I'm running it on windows 7.0
I've tried several different PDFs all with the same result
Any ideas?

This sounds like it might have been a problem with the selected import options (for example, setting a crop option for a crop box that isn't actually defined in the PDF). These options are "sticky" until changed, so when you have a problem like this it's a good idea to try again and show the import options.

HI Ohhh Kaye,
This may not help you since I'm not using a macOS. I'm running windows 7 with PS 2014.2.2. However the problem seems similar. I found this workaround on photoshop.com where people using windows and OSx versions were reporting the issue for well over a year.
It appears one trigger for this problem is when reusing older photoshop files. These older Photoshop files have older print settings saved within them. If your printer driver is newer/changed since the file was made and/or your Photoshop version is newer than when it was created it appears to cause a crash when trying to enter printer driver settings to change them.
The workaround that worked for me: Open the old photoshop file. Jot down the dimensions. Create a new file w/same dimensions. Arrange your workspace to "2-up vertical" or something that allows you to see both files at once. Select all layers on the old file and drag to the new file. Close the old file. Align all your layers and content to the new file (keep all layers selected). Then save the new file. Now choose print, and then choose print settings.   It should not crash this time. And it will be fine the next time you open it. That is if this workaround will work for both operating systems and errors anyway. (might not)   Worth a try if you are really trying to print something directly from photoshop. Otherwise export a pdf and print that.
Hope it works for you OSX people too.

Indesign CS5.5 Crashes when exporting an Interactive PDF

My InDesign CS5.5 continues to crash when trying to export an Interactive PDF.
It begins to come up with a box titled WARNING but it all closes and i don't even see the error message.
Will it work if I deactivate and reactive? will that work by any chance?
Its really frustrating.
Yasmine.

Please upload the crash report to http://pastebin.com and post a link here.
I saw the "Replace, or "trash" your InDesign preferences" thread but am confused as to what I need to delete vs. rename or move.
It's teh same as the vulcan nerve pinch you tried -- I assume InDesign prompted you to delete preferences and you said OK.
What happens if you create a new document and Pages (panel) > Move Pages pages 1-83 to the new document, and then recreate 84 and 85 by hand? Does it work? Presumably this is document corruption of some sort.

InDesign CS5.5 - Crashes When Packaging

Using: InDesign CS5.5, 7.5.2
On: Mac OSX 10.6.8
When trying to package certain of our jobs, InDesign will momentarily hangup during font or link collection before crashing completely. Initially, this was only happening on large multiple-page, image-heavy files, but now even small files, with only one or two pages and a handful of images are failing. I have read through other discussions on similar issues and have tried their fixes (i.e. turning off live preflight, disabling non-system fonts), but the results are still the same. Packaging has become a necessary portion of our workflow if only for image-gathering prior to archiving and this issue is really becoming a problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have the Adobe Crash Data here if it helps in diagnoising the root cause: http://pastebin.com/dJuV53Ja
Thanks!

I have to say, it's so awesome that so many people are posting their crash reports in 2012, without having to be asked for them! It sure makes it easier to help, at least theoretically.
I have read through other discussions on similar issues and have tried their fixes (i.e. turning off live preflight, disabling non-system fonts), but the results are still the same.
Have you tried exporting to IDML? Do you have any third-party extensions?

If it is only for image-gathering, you can use use Links (panel menu) > Utilities > Copy Links, see http://indesignsecrets.com/copy-all-your-linked-images.php for a discussion. Probably an adequate workaround.

It would appear that the crash is entirely in Apple's code, in a thread Apple created, i.e. very much "not InDesign's fault." But looks can be deceiving.
Anyhow, the implication is that there's something wrong with one of the links in a weird way. Network filesystem?

Fundamentally, we can see from frame #15 that the AdobeAFL library has been invoked to copy a file, and then Apple's file copying code is running along and somehow ultimately crashing.
Still doesn't tell us why. It vaguely reminds me of a crash someone was having a few months ago when they rightclicked on an image object. Turned out that when InDesign was building the "Edit With" menu, to show all applications that could open a particular file, some ancient (Rosetta-enabled PPC app?) program was gumming up the works and making the process of enumerating applications break. Which translated into an inability to rightclick.
While I'm not suggesting you should necessarily go through and trash any ancient applications in your Applications/ folder (just moving them is probably not sufficient either. I guess you could create a DMG and put them on the DMG and unmount it), that might be vaguely related. Hopefully not.
Anyhow, I suspect htis is a problem with a single link. Can you narrow it down to one?

InDesign CS5.5 crashes when generating index

Hello everyone. I have been working on a 232 page catalog and have been indexing as I've went along. The catalog itself (232 pages) is a book file. When I generated the index before it seemed to take a long time, but it always got through it and had no problems. One day, randomly, it decided it wasn't going to work anymore and crashes when I re-generate the index.
I have tried to add documents at sections at a time to see if it might be a particular file, but my tests have all been inconclusive. I have the catalog separated into 8 sections (32 pages each) I added 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 generating the index after each addition. I got to section five and it was still okay. When I added section 6 it crashed. I tried generating section 6 by itself and it was fine. Then I generated sections 1-5, and 7 together and it still crashed! I've done every possible combination of index generating and I'm getting desparate. I really do not want to have all my indexing work on the entire back section of the catalog to be wasted.
Is anyone having a similar problem? If I could get it narrowed down to one section, it would help greatly. I do have x refs in my documents but they are all contained within section 4 (which had no problems generating).
I'm assuming the problem lies within section 6 or 7, but I generated them together by themselves and the index generated without a problem.

My InDesign crashed a couple of months for no apparent reason and, whenever I tried to resume the same activity as I was doing when it crashed, it crashed again! I wasn't creating an index but adding photos. Bascially, what I had to do was copy and paste all of my data into a new document. That worked. It was a pain, because I had to copy the master pages, style sheets, blah, blah but it worked. I think what happens is that files get corrupted if they keep crashing. You're better off just grabbing the data and creating a new doc. A pain, I know but....
Good luck! I am just now getting into Indexes, btw.

InDesign CS5.5 crashes when trying to open ANY CS5.5 document

I am using InDesign CS5.5 and can't open any of my InDesign CS5.5 documents. The message "InDesign has stopped working" appears.
Even when trying to create a new document, again the message "Adobe InDesign CS5.5 has stopped working" - close programme.
InDesign was working perfectly on Friday. Saved and exported a file to pdf, all okay.
Are you able to help.

Hi Peter
I uninstalled the whole CS5.5, downloaded and ran the cleaning thing, reinstalled the whole suite but it came up with the message that the install had errors … every other module worked except Indesign which still did the same thing .. it would open, but not an existing or new doc … below is the error log
Did everything again.. same result
did it again but this time also deleted every folder with reference to 5.5 and cleaned the registry .. same result
finally, I did it all again, but this time did NOT install Fireworks (because of the error log below), 32bit Photoshop, Flash or the Apple support thingy .. and it now works !!
so it seems there is a problem with one or more of the above … was there an update around 24-26 May ??
Interestingly there's no icon against the Indesign program menu listing (but it still works) but the icon is still shown against all the 'indd' files
We rang support about 4 hours ago, they couldn't help but were going to look into it and get back to us 'within the hour' … needless to say they didn’t .. hope this 'work around' goes onto the blog and helps others
regards
Bruce
