InDesign Mac Trial?

Alright, so I downloaded the InDesign Mac Trial with Creative Cloud on my MacBook Air. I'm using it to make a magazine for my designing class in College. I'm trying to move the simple things such as pictures and text, but my track pad won't allow me to. Is there something that I am doing wrong or something that I need to change in order to get these to work? I'm fairly knowledgeable since I use them quite often since I'm in online journalism, but trying to use it on my personal computer instead of a actual Mac computer isn't working out so well.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, guys!

We're seeing quite a few reports that the installer is failing to set the permissions correctly on the preference folders. Log in with a new user on the Mac and see if ID will launch.

  • InDesign Mac Trial Won't Open

    Hi, I was attempting a Mac trial of InDesign, but it won't open without crashing. I deleted and re-downloaded and installed, but it still won't open. Just crashes after attempting to open. Can you help me?

  • Cannot run InDesign CS5 trial

    I downloaded the InDesign CS5 trial.  It downloaded fien in Mozilla Firefox and when it begins to go through the installation process, it tells me I do not meet the standard requirements. I downloaded InDesign to run the program anyways and upon opening the program, it immediately errors and quits.
    I am running Mac OS 10.6.7.  I would like to use the trial until CS 5.5 is available for upgrade, but I cannot figure out what I am missing to get the trial to run.  Specs for my computer are below:
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name: MacBook  Pro
      Model Identifier: MacBookPro1,1
      Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
      Processor Speed: 2 GHz
      Number Of Processors: 1
       Total Number Of Cores: 2
      L2 Cache: 2 MB
      Memory: 1.5  GB
      Bus Speed: 667 MHz
      Boot ROM Version: MBP11.0055.B08

    Can you connect it with a cable, at least temporarily until ID starts the first time? Wireless is really a network printer, and ID can be temperamental about network printers as the default.

  • Problem with German InDesign CS4 Trial

    Since the last week im trying to use the Adobe InDesign CS4 Trial Version on my Computer but i does not work really. I have downloadet the German Version but after the installation it runs in Englisch and the Toolbars on the left and the right side are missing. Before i'm using the CS3 Version at the same Computer and it works perfekt. I tried the CS4 Trial on an different Computer in our office and it works perfekt but this Computer have Microsoft Windows XP Professional.
    I read in the System requirements that Vista 64bit is not zertified but why does the CS3 work perfekt and the CS4 make those Problems?
    I hope anybody can held me......
    My Computer:
    Windows Vista business 64bit
    PHENOM Quad Core 2,4Ghz Prozessor
    8 GB RAM
    ATI Fire GL Grafic Card

    Thank you for suggesting workaround #1!
    I have been struggling with bookmarking issues for years here on CS4.  I am not bookmarking text frames, simply bookmarking pages, but I have been having problems as described.  I thought I researched it thoroughly online, but I was so relieved to find and try this option today.
    I have a 50 page InDesign price book.  Every page is bookmarked.  After exporting as a PDF some of the bookmarks work fine and some take me to the wrong page.  In InDesign CS4, I can click through the bookmarks and everything works as expected.  Every bookmark takes me to the page I assigned it to...perfect! However, once exported as a PDF I have issues.  In Preview (Mac OS 10.8) or Adobe Reader, some bookmarks are fine and some direct me to the incorrect page.  I tried Adobe Reader thinking maybe the issue was with Preview, but not only is the problem with both programs--they error consistently.  The bookmarks take me to the same incorrect page in both Preview and Reader.
    Exporting as a INX file and reimporting into InDesign CS4 is the only way I have been able to get this to work.  I originally switched to InDesign for two reasons:  1.  I was experiencing the same problem in Adobe Acrobat when assigning bookmarks so I hoped using another program would help.  2.  I am rebuilding the price book page by page in InDesign.  (Some pages just pull from a PDF document and some are original--created in InDesign CS4.  Eventually all pages will be InDesign original files.  I'm not sure those details matter, but that is what I have for content in my document.)
    Thank you!  Thank you!  I really appreciate that you took the time to suggest this for the rest of us!  I can finally distribute a correctly bookmarked price book to our reps.

  • Error message when installing Indesign CS3 trial. I need help ASAP

    I have searched the forums and adobe.com and have tried everything that I saw. None of it worked for me. I have tried and tried to install Indesign CS3 trial. I keep getting the error message: Indesign has encountered a problem and must close.
    I have windows XP and plenty of RAM. What can the problem be? I have done everything I can think of to do. I added more memory and did everything the forums said to try. I really need this for my class. I am getting behind. I cannot afford to buy the program. Please help!!!!!
    Thank you,
    Teddy

    If you scroll down you'll see there's Windows info there, too. Aside from being sure the fonts are activated, you might try renaming the Sing folder, which should be in Program Files\Common\Adobe.
    You could also try Help > Configure Plugins and disable the Sing.apln, but I don't know how you can get there if the program won't start. Maybe going to the Adobe InDesign CS3\Plug-Ins\Text folder and changing the name from SING.apln to SING.bak would do the trick.
    If it's really the SING problem, that ought to fix it, but you won't be able to work with Oriental languages.

  • InDesign CC Trial won't open files

    I have been using the trial for about 2 weeks. We work on files off a server at work, and our server went down today. This caused InDesign to crash and when I reopened it, it would no longer open any files. These are files I created using the trial and was just working on earlier today, and now I get the message "Cannot open the file xxxxx. Adobe Indesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application."
    I have already tried the following:
    Restarted my computer
    Restarted InDesign
    Ran Creative Cloud updates
    Uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign CC trial
    Had a coworker open the files on his CC trial (worked fine)
    Can anyone help?

  • InDesign CC trial disables Ai CS5 functionality?

    I currently have Illustrator CS5 on my PC, Windows 8. I don't have InDesign, but would like it soon. I downloaded the InDesign Trial version. I go to do some work in Illustrator, and my type tool will not work at all. I tried resetting preferences. I ended up Uninstalling InDesign (Which it turns out I had InDesign CS6 trial as well as CC version, not sure if that makes a difference). Once uninstalled, Illustrator works.
    Is there a compatibility issue here? I'd like to know if I need to upgrade my Illustrator in order to have InDesign.

    It shouldn't affect it - however they might have shared resources.
    Would be best to see if reinstalling your Illustrator works for you?

  • Link to InDesign CS3 Trial?

    Hi, I am trying to locate the InDesign CS3 trial download. Does anyone know where to find it? All the CS3 links I've found take me to the CS4 page where there does not seem to be a trial available yet.
    Thanks.

    I looked the other day myself, and it appears that the CS3 trials have been removed from the website. You used to be able to find them on the updates pages, but no more.

  • Photoshop Elements 6 Mac Trial - License stopped working

    Can you share the exact error message which you are getting on launch?
    I believe the last step where you are is getting this error on launch.
    Try following the steps as mentioned below from this step:
    1. Uninstall PSE 6 Mac from the \Applications\utilities\Adobe Installer\%PSE 6 installer%
    2. Run the CS3 clean up script as suggested by Barbara in the link above.
    3. Create a new Admin user and login in the machine using that user.
    4. Install PSE 6 Mac again.
    5. Launch the application.
    If it launches fine, we are good. If it gives the "Licensing has Stopped working" error then try this:
