InDesign CS6 and PDF Opening

When I try to open a PDF in InDesign CS6, I get a warning that the PDF can't be opened because a) a necessary plug-in may be missing, or b) the document is already open. The document isn't open, so what's happening?

There is Recosoft and Markzware who have professional PDF to InDesign conversion tools. Markzware, whom I represent, offer PDF2DTP, which has the years of desktop publishing conversion, preflight and packaging technolgy behind it and will even also import native .AI files, in addition to PDF to InDesign CS6 or soon also InDesign CC.
Here is a video demonstration of PDF2DTP PDF to InDeisgn

Ok i have indesign CS6 and all files are stored on a 10.7.5 MAC server. This just started happening. When I open a file indesigns is creating a textfile in the same folder? I need some help on this.

Ask in the ID forum and be much more specific about your configuration. there could be any number of reasons why manifests, temp files or restore files are created.

I used a Photoshop file as my background for a brochure in InDesign CS6 and when I print it thru eit

I used a Photoshop file as my background for a brochure in InDesign CS6 and when I print it thru either InDesign or via exporting it as a pdf it always has a white border. How can I eliminate this? I was on the phone with a tech for an hour and fifteen minutes. The answer I was given is that InDesign places white borders automatically. Need help, the white borders do not coincide with a mostly black background.

I am not certain you understood the technical support person from wherever you shought help.
ID will simply output what you tell it to. If you have designed a brochure that has a bleed and your PS file extends into the bleed, and you output a PDF with the correct settings, and send it to a service bureau (not certain about instyprint) that can print that size with bleeds, then trim it to size...phew. Seems like a run-on sentance there.
As for printing to the edge of a piece of paper on a local printer that supports it, you need to set up the printer to do so. At least that's how it has worked with the borderless printers I have used.
If you need an inexpensive brochure printed, try Quantum Digital. As long as you design it to their specs, it is a quick turn, the printing is fine for most inexpensive jobs, and they are pretty inexpensive. Offset quality they are not.
But your file better be constructed properly.
Take care, Mike

Adobe InDesign CS5 needs plugs ins, but how? Adobe InDesign CS6 won't open says OS problem. Adobe upgrade site crashes on me. ?

Adobe InDesign CS5 needs plugs ins, but how? Adobe InDesign CS6 won't open says OS problem. Adobe upgrade site crashes on me.

You might ask in InDesign to learn how to install plugins
>says OS problem
What IS your operating system, and which exact version?
Is the link below where you are starting for upgrades?
All Adobe updates start here and select product, read to see if you need to install updates in number order, or if the updates are cumulative for the individual product http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

InDesign CS6 won't open files

InDesign CS6 won't open some files. No error message, simply returns to previous 'Open...' view. I've tried restarting, rebooting, resetting my InDesign preferences and re-unzipping the original zip file. I can still open previously worked on files, though. (Even in the second folder of unzipped files, it's the same files that I can and cannot open.) Any ideas? InDesign

Ooh – I just had another look to check that they are CS6 files. The are, but each file size is 0 bytes – think that may be the problem! Thanks again both for responding so quickly. :-)
That sounds like you have the resource fork for a Mac-generated .indd file. Check to see if there is another file with the same name but a real file size in the zip archive. I suspect the "real" file (the data fork) is being unzipped first, then the resource fork is overwriting without warning and you could solve it by extract9ng the files manually.

How can i download InDesign CS6 and not CC from your website?

Are you a cloud subscriber, or are you looking for a perpetual license or trial version?

Can we get Adobe InDesign CS6 and use CS5?

Hi There,
We currently have 4 license of InDesign CS5 that comes with Adobe Creative Suite CS5.
Also an Adobe Product Premium CS5.5. We now need to get an extra license for InDesign CS5 for the Adobe Product Premium CS5.5 machine.
I noticed Adobe now sells CS6 versions only. Can we get Adobe InDesign Cs6 and have down grade right to use InDesign CS5?
Best Regards/Allen Chen

Alternatively move to Creative Cloud.
But that means buying cloud subscriptions for all seats so everyone is on the same version rather than buying one seat to downgrade. I agree that inthe long run this is probably a better solution, but it may cost more up front.

Updating an index in InDesign CS6 and retaining commas

I have an index in a book document I am creating in InDesign CS6 and as I add imagery to the text the page numbers change so I go to the index panel and generate index which overrides the previous version. This has been working perfectly but my last attempt caused the commas between the page numbers to turn into dots above the base line. I wonder if anyone knows how I can solve this problem and turn them back into commas. In the 'more options' section of teh index panel I have specified commas as the page separators but this isn't changing them back to commas in the index,
I would be very grateful if anyone can help me with this.

Thank you - I can't see where this has happened as it seems to be applying the footnote superscript style to the index. I can restyle the index after each time I regenerate it as a work around. Thank you for your help.

I have a problem with indesign cs6 and my epson 3880 on mac

I have a problem with indesign cs6 and my epson 3880 on mac. I need an older version of indesign but do not have a serial number....any suggestions?

I see then I believe Kglad's advice is on track with starting with updating your printer drivers. I have also moved this discussion over to the InDesign forum as the Users in this forum likely have additional suggestions.
Also if you can please turn off your e-mail signature if you want to respond via e-mail. Your responses are going to a public forum where the information is accessible by anyone. I have edited your previous response to remove the signature.

I just got InDesign CS6 and am running it on an iMac and I know the license is good for two computers which will come in very handy for me. How do I set it up to access it from my second iMac?

I just got InDesign CS6 and am running it on an iMac and I know the license is good for two computers which will come in very handy for me. How do I set it up to access it from my second iMac?

I just had an afterthought, Peter, if I could bother you further; if the downstairs iMac that I want to access it from is in my wife's name and not mine (even though I'll be the one using it on her computer) does that affect anything or can I simply load the software straight into her computer without any complications?

Sharing files between InDesign CS6 and InDesign CC

Can a user of InDesign CS6 and a user of InDesign CC share files without having to save as idml?

Whoop. Hit send too soon.
The CC user has access to CS6 as part of the subscription and should be using that to share files with someone who only has CS6.

I am looking for the exact same information! Someone, help? I didn't realize when I gave them so much money that Adobe has the customer support of a snake with its tail in its mouth...

Indesign CS6 and CC

I'm building an app for a client. I'm working on InDesign CS6, and my coworker will be working on InDesign CC. Will this be compatiable, or will both computers have to be on InDesign CC?

or you may use that CC on your computer as well:

Updated InDesign CS6 and not unexpectedly quits and won't open

Hi, I just updated indesign cs6 (for mac) this morning and now it won't open and just crashes with the "InDesign has unexpectedly quit" window. PhotoShop, Ilustrator and Dreamweaver all seem to be opening and working fine but it's InDesign I need! Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Dara

Sorry I haven't replied earlier. I re-downloaded the original version InDesign from the my adobe user site and installed it again, I also used Onyx to clear all permission, preferences etc and restarted which got it working again. I'm in the middle of doing a massive project that has very tight deadlines so I don't think I'll try updating again until it's finished. Adobe CS6 in general doesn't seem to be updating properly at all, either through the app store on mountain lion or through the adobe updater system. Is this a common problem do you know? Again, apologies for the lateness of my reply and thank you, Dara
