Indesign CS6 Missing Plug-ins

When I launch Indesign it states
"Cannot load JPEG Export UI.IndesignPlugin because it requires JPEG Export Filter. Please install the JPEG Exporter Filter plug-in and restart Indesign."
I click "ok", then another pop-up states
"Cannot load Layout Adjustment Panel.IndesignPlugin because it requires Layout Adjustment. Please install the Layout Adjustment plug-in and restart Indesign."
I've had Indesign installed on my iMac for a couple of years; haven't used it much, but I don't recall it ever doing this before. Any ideas on how to correct this issue?
Thank you

That means that something in the user account is screwed up.
Go back to the first account and start by trashing the prefs. See Replace Your Preferences . You're also going to need to see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later to find the two folders that hold the prefs files.
If just trashing the prefs doesn't clear it up, that means that more than just the two files are messed up. The good news is you can replace the entire two folders and it should work. Go back to the original account and rename the two folders (do this first so the entire folders will be replaced, not just the files inside them), then copy the folders from the new user.

Why would Extension Manager CS6 report dependency issues for 29 InDesign CS6 factory plug-ins?

Suddenly Extension Manager CS6 is reporting dependency issues for 29 InDesign CS6 factory plug-ins. I made no changes to those plugins that might have precipitated this. Anyone have any ideas about what might have happened? (This is happening with Extension Manager 6.0.8.28 and InDesign 8.0.2.) Some examples of the plugins reported as not meeting dependency condition are the following:
   Book Panel (8.0.0.370)
   PDF (8.0.2.413)
   Snippet (8.0.0.370)
   XML (8.0.2.413)
   XMLParser (8.0.0.370)
Hayden

1. You only pasted one log file (log0.log?), there is another more important log file: ExtensionManager.log you dind't paste.
2. Have you removed ALL mxi files from ALL subfolders of BOTH "C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store" AND "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store" to separate folder? If yes, Extension Manager shouldn't hang.
3. Please make sure you have "Full control" permission to ""C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\Configuration\DB\ExMan.db" and "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\Configuration\DB\ExManUser.db". You can check it in "Security" tab page of "Properties" dialog box.

InDesign Reinstallation Missing Plug-ins

Hi, all,
Apple recently replaced the hard drive in my MacBook Pro.
I reinstalled all my Adobe CS2 Creative Suite Software
(from disks) and now can open none of the CS2 InDesign files
I created prior to the hard drive replacement because of various
missing plug-ins. The InDesign error message lists missing
LILO.InDesignplugin and CellStyles.rpin.InDesignplugin
as the culprits.
Adobe told me this is due to a faulty reinstallation. So I de-installed
and then reinstalled the whole creative suite. The problem persists.
Apple says it's Adobe's fault, not theirs. Adobe now says they can't
support me because they only offer support for CS3 and CS4.
They've referred me to the collective wisdom of the forum.
Can anyone help? Do I need to configure some plug-ins? Import
some plug-ins? Where do they come from?
Thanks.

Hmm. I created all the files using my own software on my own laptop. If they were created in an updated version of CS2 would this error occur? I tried updating CS2 but that hasn't helped either, problem remains. I did install a trial copy of CS4 I downloaded and can open the files there...but I'll have to buy it.

Adobe Installers didn't uninstall InDesign CS6's Plug-Ins and Utilities

After running "Uninstall Adobe InDesign CS6" in Adobe Installers folder, I noticed that "Adobe InDesign CS6" folder still remains (there are 2 folders inside: Plug-Ins and Utilites) in Application folder. Is it okay to move the remaining folders to trash? What would be the best practice for clean removal?

After Uninstalling the Adobe Indesign from Adobe Indesign uninstaller if some of the files and folders are there in your computer then yes you can move them in trash.

Newly created InDesign 5.5 file missing plug-ins, can't open now

How can I open an InDesign 5.5 file that says it's missing plug ins and won't open, when I just opened and created the file last week?

When I try to open a CS6 file in CS5.5, I get the error message:
The way to generate this other message:
is to try to open something that InDesign can't open. This is sometimes an InDesign file that is corrupt. Once I found poorly configured backup software keeping files open. In other cases I've had clients hand off files that were supposed to be InDesign files but turned out to be renamed zipfiles or PDF files or Word files (all of which fall under the "may not support the file format" statement above). You've already ruled out it being open elsewhere by searching for .idlk files, and you've ruled out plugin issues already (by not having a CS6 file generate the new "because it was saved with a newer version" message, and chances that you've installed some kind of plugin that ), so it almost has to be a file that is broken or misnamed in some way.

InDesign file won't open, missing plug-ins

Anyone ever seen this error message when trying to open an Adobe InDesign file?
Missing plug-ins:
worldready.rpln
dynamicdocuments.rpln
conditionaltext.rpln
sharedcontent.rpln
I am using a PC with CS6, but also tried another PC with CS3. Same issue with various backups of the files.
The files seem to all be older than 2012, and appear to not have a program associated with them (appear as white icons, not typical color) even though they say InDesign, INDD file when you mouse over them.
Thanks in advance.

Missing Plug-ins - Package And Preflight.APLN from InDesign Document

If a user creates a file in InDesign CC and then tries to open it in InCopy CS6 they get the following error.
Missing Plug-ins, Cannot Open File
PACKAGE AND PREFLIGHT.APLN
The Doument "filename.indd" uses one or more plug-ins which are not currently available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?
This happens whether the copy of InCopy is on the same PC as InDesign or a seperate PC without InDesign. InCopy is installed seperately from the CC.
Clicking OK opens the file normally.
We have checked that both versions of the software match at v8.0.2.
I've heard it might be due to embedding of this file but the designers say they are not yet at the stage of packaging this file when they get this error so nothing should be embedded.
Can anyone help?
Simon

Hi, Thanks for pointing out the error.
I have checked back with our designer and found out that they are using InDesign CS6 and not CC. (I was confused as they used CC to install it rather than our seperate deployment tool).
The problem however remains the same.

Suddenly getting "Missing Plug-Ins" errors when opening .indd files in InDesign CS2

I have a PC running Windows 7 and InDesign CS2. The laptop's installation of Windows was corrupted and I had to re-install the OS. I backed up all files, reinstalled the OS, and then reinstalled applications. One of those applications was InDesign CS2. However, after the installation of CS2 on the fresh copy of Windows, I noticed that I have trouble opening most, but not all, of the InDesign files on my hard drive.
When I try to open a .indd file I see an error message pop up that says "Missing Plug-ins. LILO.APLN, DYNAMICDOCUMENTS.RPLN, CONDITIONALTEXT.RPLN" and three more. Under that list of missing plugins is the warning "This document uses one or more plug-ins which are not currently available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?" If I click "okay" I then am met with another dialog box that says "Cannot open file. TEXT.RPLN, LAYER.RPLN" and on and on for about 60 more items.
I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING! I've searched around concerning this issue and it appears the consensus is that the file was opened by a newer version of InDesign. That possibility is, in fact, an impossibility. Never have I used a newer version of InDesign. The files that I am working on were backed up, stored on local storage and not touched once before reinstalling the OS and reinstalling InDesign CS2.
I also noticed that not all InDesign file formats were associated with InDesign in "Windows Programs and Defaults." I changed those to look to InDesign. I've also uninstalled InDesign CS2 and re-installed.
Not all InDesign CS2 files are exhibiting this behavior. So far, it appears more than half are, but some can be opened with no problems. There seems to be no correlation between which ones are able to be opened and which ones can't be opened.
What could have happened to these files and is there any possibility of opened them again? Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Conditional Text was a new feature in CS4. I'm thinking, can you explain how your old CS2 documents became aware of it?
Not exactly sure myself. Abiogenesis?
[Edit]
Almost forgot. I wrote a script to unequivocally determine the InDesign version a document was last saved as:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4071273
I'll give that a try today. Even an affirmative judgement that the files are newer than CS2 would not impress me however. The fact remains, the files were copied off one hard drive over to another, the plug was pulled on the hard drive, the PC was re-imaged, CS2 was reinstalled, the files were copied back over... and whammo.

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/

Missing plug-ins help? CS5 Adobe InDesign

I'm trying to open an .indd file on an InDesign training cd and it says missing plug-ins conditional text.rpln, worldready.rpln, and dynamicdocument.rpln. (I think the version of InDesign I have may be a trial version). Where can I get these or what can I do???? I'm running Mac 10.6.7. Thanks

What you have is a version mismatch. ThAT's the kind of message you receive when trying to open a file saved in a newer version than the one you are using.
On window, go the help menu and press the Ctrl key while selecting About InDesign. On Mac it's under the InDesign menu, and you need to hold the Cmd key. This will open a detailed "about" dialog with the full version and build inthe upper left corner. What is it? What version is th training disk labeled for?

Missing Plug-ins issue (CS6)

Hi all, I have upgraded from CS5 to CS6 and ever since then, I have had issues with missing plug-ins. Every file I open pops up with a message that it has missing plug-ins and when I want to package the file, it say's that "the document cannot be packaged due to missing plug-ins. Please install or activate these plug-ins: XMPBackEnd7.InDesignPlugin."
I am unsure what to do with this and how to go about activating/installing the correct plug-in for CS6
If anyone coul help me that would be great!

It sounds like you probably had a plugin from XMPie installed in CS5. If you need that functionality you'll need to install in CS6 as well.

Missing plug-ins for InDesign CS4? Fehlende Zusatzmodule für InDesign CS4?

Missing plug-ins for InDesign CS4? Fehlende Zusatzmodule für InDesign CS4?
Hello! Hallo!
I am working with CS4 on the Mac OS X, version 10.6.8. I created some InDesign files with it a couple of weeks ago. When I want to open them now again, it shows me a long list of plug-ins that I supposedly have to activate first or I need to buy the newest CS as an alternative.1. How did this problem come off? 2. How can I activate the missing plug-ins?
Ich arbeite mit CS4 auf einem Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. Habe damit vor einigen Wochen mehrere InDesign Dateien erstellt. Wenn ich sie jetzt wieder öffnen möchte, zeigt er mir eine lange Liste von Zusatzmodulen an, die ich angeblich aktivieren muss bzw als Alternative das aktuellste CS kaufen soll.
1. Wie ist das Problem zustande gekommen? 2. Wie kann ich die benötigten Zusatzmodule aktivieren?
Thank you all! Danke schön!

Actually, Indesign only says like "I can't open, because it was saved from a newer version" and does not list any extensions/plugins.
If you now make a new document, save it and open again - will it work?
Those plug-ins are usually enabled/disabled via the Adobe Extension Manager (Menü "Hilfe"->Erweiterungen verwalten).

Unable to open documents because of missing plug ins

I am unable to open documents in CS3 (version 5.04)
I am getting a message:"Missing Plug Ins: Conditional Text.InDesignPlugIn, WorldReady.InDesignPlugin.
The document "xxxxx.indd" uses one or more plug-ins which are not currently available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?"
If I click on OK I get another window, stating "Cannot Open File", a list of all kind of missing Plugins and the message "Cannot open "xxxxx.indd". Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign.
I don't want to switch to CS4 and as far as I know version 5.04 of CS3 is the latest.
Any ideas of what I could do to get the latest PlugINs or anything else that would help?
Thank you!
Anne

Probably, but it's 100% not necessary when going from CS4 to CS3. It might be a case of 'half read, then half-understood'.
As this is a really frequent question and there are still no sticky posts: anyone up for a "feature request" that makes InDesign check the version number before opening? (Of course that wouldn't work backwards to CS3. Still, it'd avoid these kind of posts when CS6 comes out. Note: not CS5, because that would have no problems opening CS4, but CS4 would have problems with Cs5! Oh, for planning ahead ... )

Missing plug-ins error

Hello everyone,
I am attempting to open an InDesign document that a client sent me and I keep getting missing plug in errors. I am using Indesign Cs5 on a Mac with Os 10.6. I have run into this issue before when trying to open files made on older versions of InDesign so I attempted to open the file with both Cs3 and Cs4 without any luck. Is there some where I can down load the missing plugins so I can view this file? If it helps at all the error I recieve is "Missing Plug-ins Shared Content.InDesign plugin", I scenerly hope I dont have to update to cs5.5 after only having cs5 for a year.

It’s a CS5.5 file.
If you upgrade to CS5.5 now you’ll get CS6 for free.
Bob
