InDesign unable to launch

Hi,
i'm using CS5 design standard under volume license.
The OS is windows 7 x64.
I'd successfully installed the suite.
However, InDesign is unable to launch despite photoshop,illustrator etc working perfectly fine.
I tried reinstalling the whole suite,reinstalling just the InDesign, disabling all startup programs and restarting but none of these solutions worked...
I also called the hotline,but was asked to pay US$39 before they can help me.
Looking for any advice available.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read.

Sorry about the lack of information.
Product:
Adobe CS5 Design Standard
under volume license.
System specs:
Hp Z400 workstation
Intel Xeron(R) W3505 2.53GHz
3GB RAM
Windows 7 Professional x64
Problem:
After successful installation, InDesign's icon(both the icon in the start menu and the .exe found in program files\adobe) failed to appear.
Upon double-clicking(both original .exe or the shortcut), nothing happens or appears.
No splash screen or error messages etc.
However, using task manager, an InDesign.exe can be seen using 50% CPU in the Processes tab,yet nothing appears in the Applications tab.
All other programs such as photoshop, photoshop x64, illustrator etc worked perfectly fine(no problem with their icons too).
Attempted solutions(didnt work):
-uninstalling the whole existing CS5 and reinstalling again.
-uninstalling just the InDesign portion and reinstalling again.

Unable to launch InDesign CC

I have just installed Creative Cloud on my MacBook Pro laptop, which is running Mavericks Version 10.9.2. When I try to launch ID, I get "Error: Unable to launch Adobe InDesign as you do not have sufficient permissions to access the preferences folders. Ensure that you have appropriate permissions and then restart Adobe InDesign."
I have tried repairing my permissions and resetting the ID preferences so far. Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!

Same problem here (Mac OS 10.9.3; InD CC 2014 install) - this is the 3rd CC install (2014 this time) of InDesign I've done and had this issue. It's absolutely ridiculous for a software install to screw up the permissions - if the permissions are right enough to permit the installation, how can they be bad when it comes to running the application?
Plus, this time I've been unable to fix the problem (prior fix was to methodically compare the permissions from a previous, successful version of InDesign, and change the current install to match).
I can't believe I'm paying Adobe a monthly fee for this kind of aggravation.
UPDATE
OK, for the sake of future victims (on a Mac), here's the fix that worked for me:
Navigate to each of the following folders, change the name of the "Version X.X" folder to "oldVersion X.X" (where X.X is the current version number), then start InDesign. That should force creation of replacement folders with corrected permissions. You can then trash the "oldVersion" folders (you'll need administrator privileges to do all this)
/Users/(your user name)/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign
/Users/(your user name)/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign
Good luck.

Unable to launch File sync and to update Adobe Exchange panel in Illustrator CC 2014

I suppose that these two problems might be related, as I need the file sync to sync the extensions?
Anyway, I’m unable to launch a file sync, and when I update the Adobe Exchange panel in Illustrator, it asks for a reboot, and after the reboot, it asks again for an update…
Thanks for the help!

I've since received information of a workaround - listed in a different thread: Unable to install non-standard updates - Cannot launch/update Adobe Digital Publishing for InDesign CC 2014
Try the following to enable updates:
1) Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AAMUpdaterInventory\1.0 and you will find a .dat file ( AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat).
2) Please open the file in question and you will find a line item : <Suppressed>1</Suppressed> .
3) Please change the Value from 1 to 0 and save the file back in the same location.
On a Mac, essentially the same, however location: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0/AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat
I was given further advice that DPS toolkit updates are not available when you create the deployment package from Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Edition on Mac OS. (I believe this may be the same using Creative Cloud Packager as you've found)
Deployment DPS Toolkit Update| AAMEE |Mac OS
The above article suggests that you can download and install the DPS update silently, however, an end user must be logged into computer - not really feasible for enterprise environments.
So I guess the process for this would be:
1)Copy the contents of the DPS update package to remote machine
2)Enable updates by modifying the AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat file
3)Remotely launch the DPS update silently (when someone is logged onto machine)
4)Disable updates again when complete...

Unable to launch firefox above 3.0 after upgrade attempt

I had firefox 3.0. I tried upgrading when 3.2 came out and was unable to launch firefox after that. For each subsequent revision, I tried to upgrade but always had same problem. It does not give any error message. It just refuses to launch.So I just stopped trying to upgrade and kept using the 3.0. I use an EeePC mini notebook with XP home edition. It functions well with the other browser which I don't like to use. Any suggestion?

Hello Dieter,
We have used fully qualified domain name as the server name and all the services have been activated using SIAC_PUBLISH_ALL_INT.
The notes 808347 and 816973 have already been checked through.The browser prob i have implemented but to no help. Is there any parameter to be set in the profile parameter maintenance for SNC, I am not sure; its just a wild guess..we are not using portal as of now.
Thanks For Your Help,
Karthik

The application runs fine if I uninstall version 5.0 and revert to 1.4.2_06
but I would like it to be compatible with newer versions of java.
P.S. Im not a programer so if you could explain to me in simple terms what Im doing wrong it would be great.
Thanks in advance

I'm a programming illiterate having the same problem with the latest java.

Unable to launch application

I am just starting off with Java Web Start and trying some simple tests. Let me preface the problem statement by saying that everything is on the same machine (my Win XP Pro desktop). Also, I have confirmed that the environment is set up correctly by running the demo apps at http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/demos.html; these work flawlessly.
However, when I try to invoke my application it fails with a dialog that reads

So I did that; but then I get a failure with the General tab reading
Unsigned application requesting unrestricted access to systemCan you help?

Unsigned application requesting unrestricted access to systemWell It means your application was downloaded, but if the jnlp file indicates an unrestricted access to the client, you need to sign your application.
Search for self-signed certificates in the forums to know how to generate a cert yourself and sign the jar file(s).

actually there are 2 problems here:
file:///Documents and Settings/... will work, but this means the path:
/Documents and Settings/... on the current path.
if you have to include the "c:" part first, then there needs to be only 2 leading slashes, because "/C:/Documents and Settings/..." is not a leagle pathname (even after replacing the file separators).
However the colon (":") char is not legal in a URL, so has to be escaped.
Best to just use: "file:///Documents and Settings/..."

Java - Unable to launch application

The problem: When I try to run ASDM on my Cisco 5550, I'm getting the dialog box "Unable to launch application". When I click on "Details", I see the error: "The application has requested a version of the JRE (1.5+) that is not installed".
The system I'm running this on is a Mac Pro with OS X Lion 10.7.5, and the latest Java version 7u13.
The initial lines of "show ver" on the firewall are:
# show ver
Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 8.2(2)
Device Manager Version 6.3(3)
This is a relatively new problem; as recently as two weeks ago I was able to run ASDM with no problem. I suspect that the latest security-related Java updates have caused something to break.
Any ideas?

Solved this one on my own: The solution was to install the latest ASDM, 7.1.1_52. (This had occurred to me, but I didn't know if was compatible with the older ASA 8.2(2). It looks like it is!)

Unable to Launch Application error while starting IR

Dear friends
I am not a BASIS trained person, but wearing different caps because I am the only SAP engineer in our company and so learning on the job.
I have installed a new server that has (SAP ECC 6.0, EP and PI). This is an IDES version. The operating system is Windows Server 2003 R2 (64 Bit).
The menu System -> Status says that Software Component SAP_BASIS is Release 700.
The ECC part is working ok, since I have been using many custom and standard tables, Bapis etc.,
However, when I give transaction code "SXMB_IFR" to start PI, it opens the browser with a message at the top saying "You need to install Javau2122 WebStart 1.4.2. "
However, I have installed j2sdk1.4.2_17-x64 and entered the environment variable path "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_17-x64".
When I try to click on 'Integration Repository', it tries to start 'Java Web Start window and after a while fails with a message 'Unable to launch the application'.
I searched SDN and other blogs and tried suggestions like,
selecting Control Panel -> Java and removing temporary internet files. But this didn't help.
I have installed another server on a 32 bit system and that one doesn't have any issues. The main difference with this one is that it is a 64 bit server and has (ECC, EP and PI) installed on the same server.
I would appreciate any feedback or suggestions.
Thanks
Ram

Dear Ram
install JDK then
first set your environment variable like this... upto ur java bin folder.
JAVE_HOME C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin
then run your java webstart . goto preferences and there make proxy as none
now start IR again.. it will start.. if it fails again then take 1-2 more trial to start . It will open.
IN SAP XI/PI, java webstart is used to cache fat clients like IR and ID on local machines. So you need to make JWS proxy as NONE and then run IR or ID. with in 1-2 attemt it will cache all the required files.
then after wards it will run smoothly.
good luck
