InDesign CS6 file not opening...running OSX Mavericks

Hi there, for some reason I am unable to open InDesign CS6 files. I've restarted Creative Cloud, my computer, nothing. I get a prompt saying that some files need to be relinked, which I've had before but then it opens fine. I can't even open a new document. This is a new issue since OSX Mavericks update....any thoughts?

I'm a Windows user, but I can tell you that there are thousands of Mac users with CS6, and a god number of them use the new Mavericks without a problem, so it's more likely to be something specific to your system.
I can also tell you that upgrading an OS can be a crapshoot and it's usually better to do a clean install, but I can't promise that wiping your system and rebuilding will solve the problem if it's some sort of conflict with third-party software.
Not error messages, crash, spinning pinwheel of death?

IPhoto (9.5.1) will not open in OSX Mavericks

Grateful for some help. A few months back we had to take our Mac into Apple store because TimeMachine wasn't backing up. They ran loads of diagnostics and said problem was a corrupted OS. We backed up everything and they loaded OS X Mavericks on for us. They then re-loaded everything from our back-up. Everything seemed to work ok except Iphoto which would not open. We called the Apple Support people who talked us through some steps. They couldn't identify the problem but said they could solve it by creating a second iphoto library (2). They did this and whilst it opened ok all of our old folders had disappeared.
However now (few weeks later) iphoto will not open at all. I have tried to access it through the desktop, Applications, finder etc but no joy. I've read through various community conversations and see that there has been problems with OSX and iphoto. I've tried downloading Library Manager Upgrade 1.1. but when I try to run it says my version of iphoto doesn't need it.
Details:
iMac 27" Mid 2011, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
OSX Mavericks 10.9.2 (13C64)
IPhoto V9.5.1
Any help please!

Try this:
From Finder, hold down the option key on your keyboard and click on the Go menu at the top of the screen
Select Library from the drop down menu
Then navigate to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement > assets
Right click on the 'sub' folder and choose Compress
Drag the resulting zip file to your Desktop (as a backup)
Go to your System Preferences and choose iCloud
Turn OFF the iCloud Photos option
Go back to Library > Application Support and DELETE the iLifeAssetManagement folder
Now, in System Preferences, turn the iCloud Photos option ON
iPhoto should now be able to launch. Give it enough time to re-download your Photo Stream content. Unzip the sub folder on your desktop and drag that into iPhoto if you are missing any of your My Photo Stream photos (more than 30 days old).
Credit to user photosb189 for that.

InDesign CS6 will not open

It launches for a few seconds then disappears without completing startup. The little launch screen says "calling early initializers" and "starting up service registry" before disappearing. I have tried the suggestions at http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-launch-issues-problems-cs5.html with no luck, including running the Adobe Support Advisor, which did not see any problems.
I have restarted the computer. I have tried opening InDesign directly from the application and also through different files. I have deleted recovery files. Not sure what else to do. And I'm on deadline for many things that require InDesign.

Hang logs don't mean a thing to me, unfortunately. We normally ask users to convert hangs to crashes using activity monitor, then post the crash log (see Adobe Forums: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding), but at this point it's entirely moot since trashing the prefs solved your problem.

PS CS not opening after OSX Mavericks download

Just downloaded OSX Mavericks...now can't open Photoshop CS. Upgraded Java to no avail. Can anyone help?

Then unfortunately it is too old to run in Mavericks. PPC program's we're dropped after 10.5. 10.6 had Rosetta which was introduced to give users ample time to update their programs. CS3 and upwards are supported. You can always make another partition and install SL on that and run both OSXs

Indesign CC Files Not Opening

Running windows 7. Just installed Indesign CC and deleted CS6. Now Indesign files won't display as Indesign files in Explorer and won't open from Explorer or Bridge.
How can I resolve this issue.

Reinstall InDesign CC.

PS CS6 files not opening and text acting funny

In the last day my copy of PS CS6 has been acting up.
Firstly, when I started going to modify text that was already there by clicking on it with the text tool, the text would change to the text from another layer. For example, if I went to modify the text on layer 3, it would be replaced by the text on another layer such as layer 1. And this kept happening with every text layer.
Secondly, now PS doesn't open any files for me. When I go to open an image or PSD file, I get a big white screen where the document should be. I can see the layers in the layer panel and PS doesn't crash but I can't see my files now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

InDesign CS6 will not open application

I updated InDesign using patch 8.0.1, on reflection InDesign possibly was already 8.1. The application then failed to open. i tried downloading patch 8.2, but it won't work with the programme. I can't open InDesign at all, please help. Do I need to re-install the software? If so, how do I do this?

Okay I will give it a go. I am at work now, so I will do it tonight once I am home. I will get back to you tomorrow if I am still having issues.
