Indesign CS6 and Windows 8

Indesign CS6 is extreamly slow in Windows 8 espeially in editing Text.

And what do you expect us to tell you? If you have problems, you need to explain them properly and provide the necessary info - in the ID forum.

  • InDesign CS6 for Windows: Type tool crashes program and am getting missing plug-in msgs.

    Just installed InDesign CS6 for Windows. When I open the program, I receive three messages:
    (1) Paragraph Panel.APLN needs Justification Panel plugin;
    (2) Runin Styles Panell.APLN needs Find and Change Panel plug-in;
    (3) Objectstylesui.APLN needs Graphics Panel plug-in.
    To top it off, the type tool crashes the program.
    I couldn't locate any current forum postings that appeared to help. I have uninstalled and re-installed the software. I have done an update from Adobe.
    Advice? This is an educator's addition if that matters.
    Thanks,
    Julie

    Thank for your help Peter. My software is working just fine now.
    For others who might encounter these issues, here is how - with Peter Spier's help - I solved my problems. I uninstalled the previous CS6 version and re-booted. I disconnected from the Internet and then disabled my antivirus protection, antispyware and firewall. I had to do this in Norton as well as Windows (Windows Defender and Windows Firewall). Then I re-loaded the entire CS6 and re-booted. I opened InDesign. I no longer got the msgs about plug-ins missing. I then opened a new file and checked the Type tool. It worked fine. I opened an InDesign CS3 file, saved it as a new file in ID CS6. I was able to successfully edit text using the Type Tool.
    Thank you to Peter for your help!

    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...

  • Cannot access Adobe Folio Builder using Indesign (CS6) on Windows 7, error message is 'An error has occured while trying to sign in to the Folio Builder Panel' [IMS_ERROR_FAILURE]

    Cannot access Adobe Folio Builder using Indesign (CS6) on Windows 7, error message is 'An error has occured while trying to sign in to the Folio Builder Panel' [IMS_ERROR_FAILURE]

    Yes, I can open the DPS portal via the Folio Builder panel within InDesign. Although I have created Folios locally within InDesign CS6, the DPS portal is empty and everthing greyed out with just the text "There are no folios to display. Create folios with the folio builder in InDesign".
    If I try to sign in within the Folio Builder panel in InDesign, I get the error message [IMS_ERROR_FAILURE] . In addition I am also not able to access the "Help" menu from within InDesign although I am connected to the internet.
    To complicate it even further, I am working in the UK whereas all internet control (firewall) and licences are handeled by head office in Germany. I am not sure if this is a firwewall issue or not but if the IT department in Germany could get support from Adobe to understand the access requirements, this may help.
    Hopefully using the forum someone out there will know the answer.

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

  • 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.

  • 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 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

  • 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.

  • 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:

  • InDesign CS6 and CC hang constantly in Windows 8 x64

    Id anyone else experiencing a similar problem? If I do anything at all in InDesign, the application will "hang". I can still move my cursor, it does not crash, I can still see what text block or other item I have selected, but I can't do anything at all with it. Oddly enough, if I press "esc" one time, I will get the frame handles, and I am then able to do whatever I wanted to do with it. If I deselect it, the select something else (or the same item again) it does the same
    thing. I get a box around the item, but can't do anything with it. I can't move it, I can't select the text, I can't select anything else. BUT ... if I hit "esc" I get the handles, and can then do what I want. This is extremely annoying. I have both CS6 and CC installed on my desktop here at home, using Creative Cloud. Both versions exhibit the same issue, regardless of file (they all do it, even a brand new document with only one word placed). At work, I have a desktop that is running Windows 7 x64, and they both work fine. The issue seems to only be happening on my desktop here at home, running Windows 8 x64.
    Any thoughts would be extremely grateful. Thanks!

    Thanks. I periodically check for new drivers and have indeed installed the latest drivers. Last night, just as a check to see if it was a problem with new drivers, I installed an older version of the driver and it still behaved the same, so I reinstalled the newest drivers. I'm going to get with Wacom's support team and see if there is any known issues from their end. Thanks for your response. Double-checked this morning, and the problem does not exist here at my office where I have the nearly identical set up, with the exception of running Win 7 x64 instead of Win 8 x64. Same model tablet, same drivers from June of this year, same file. It seems to be an issue with Wacom, Win 8 and InDesign. I don't have any issues with Illustrator CC, PS CC or LR 5.

  • InDesign CS6 with Window 8 Won't Launch

    Had been working fine, last launch was 3 days ago.  Today tried to open InDesign CS6 (Windows 8.1) and get the following InDesign.exe error box: "CAnot load InDesign.exe because it requires Paragraph Composer. Please install the Paragraph Composer plug-in and restart InDesign."  How do you do this, where do you get?

    Peter thanks for your help.
    I set up a new user account and tried, but that didn't work either.
    Do I need to :
    1. uninstall InDesign only with Windows Unintsaller (not the entire suite?)
    2. download InDesign from Adobe's website
    3. put in our serial # and I should be good to go?
    Or will I still need to reinstall my plugins through the Adobe manager?
    Thanks
    I would certainly try just doing ID first. If that's not successful you can remove the whole suite, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) then reinstall.
