Is InDesign CC 2014 fairly compatible with CS 5.5?

Will I be able to edit items created in CC 2014 with my CS 5.5 software (and vice-versa)? Thanks, in advance, for your help!

CC 2014 can open the CS 5.5 files, but not the other way around. You can save as IDML, and 5.5 can open that, but it a far from flawless conversion, and any features new to CC2014 will be flattened or lost in the conversion.

Rotated transparent images Muse CC 2014 not compatible with IE8.... they all appear with a black box behind them.

IE 8 is supposed to be supported by muse CC 2014 but its not in the case of rotated transparent images.. Did not have this problem in the previous version of Muse. The code did not have progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix... now it does...
Had to add ie8 specific css and code to the page and use a composite image instead of the individual images to get a page with no black boxes...

I see this is still an issue even after the latest update.... Will this problem be addressed? Right now I have to manually update the html code for each page after export. This is a site that I update regularly so every time a change is made I have to fix each page so it can be viewed without the black boxes in ie8.

Is indesign 3.0.1 compatible with Windows 7

I presently have InDesign 3.0.1 on my XP computer.
I'm switching over to a Windows 7 computer, can I install My current version of InDesign (3.0.1) on my Windows 7 computer
Thank you,

Most likely not, but there is a good chance that it will run under Windows XP Compatibility Mode.

Is InDesign 2.0 compatible with all versions of Adobe Pro?

Is InDesign 2.0.2 compatible with all versions of Adobe Professional?
For years, I created InDesign documents using 2.0.2, placing PDF documents created using Acrobat Distiller 6.0.1 (Windows) with no issue. At the beginning of 2010, my software was updated from Adobe Pro 6 to Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with no change to InDesign.
When I place PDF documents created using the newer 9 version, I receive an error, "This PDF document was saved with security settings which prevent its pages from being placed." I am unable to decipher what needs to be changed. Under the security properties of the PDF documents created using version 6 and 9, there are NO security settings.
Is there an action step I can take when placing the PDF documents (version 9) into InDesign 2.0?

In Acrobat 9, open the PDF.
Go to the Document Menu
Select Reduct File Size
Set the compatability level
Alternately, Export the PDF to PDF/X, and select the 1a option. This should 'dumb down' the PDF enough for ID 2 to accept it.

Failure to update and now launch InDesign CC 2014

Yesterday I updated all Adobe CC applications on all iMacs in my institution's labs. On each iMac, the InDesign update was the only one to fail. The error code gives no technical reason and the only solution is to reinstall the program. This is not a viable option for a enterprise user. Now, whenever a user tries to launch InDesign CC 2014, it fails with a message saying it needs a newer version of the Dynamic Documents plug in (1.0 or newer). Is think linked to the update fail? It must be because before InDesign was working fine.

Indesign CC 2014 config error 5

Hi there, need help fixing an issue i'm having with indesign CC 2014 coming up with config error 5 when i try to open up the program (not a file). I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, deleting preferences and even reverting back to Indesign CC. Same thing happens everytime. Any ideas?

Nevermind. I just saw the screenshot.
I don’t have my Mac open right now but on Windows here’s the folder you need to look at: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC 2014\Scripts
Make sure that none of the CC extension scripts got moved there. If they did, move them back to the CC folder.

Adobe InDesign CC 2014 compatible with CS6

I have Adobe InDesign CC 2014 version. Can an older version ex. CS6 read files from Adobe InDesign CC 2014 version?

You need to Save As > InDesign CS4 or later (IDML), and send that to a user who has a license (not subscription) to InDesign CS6.
However, if the user has a Creative Cloud subscription and is using CS6, the will have access to both versions of the application.

Porting an InDesign Plugin from InDesign CC to InDesign CC 2014 the plugin complies successfully with the InDesign CC 2014 SDK but at run time presents this error and is disabled. Does anyone know what might be the issue?

Porting an InDesign Plugin from InDesign CC to InDesign CC 2014 the plugin complies successfully with the InDesign CC 2014 SDK but at run time presents this error and is disabled. Does anyone know what might be the issue?
Run TimeError Message Presented when InDesign CC 2014 runs:
Adobe InDesign cannot load the FastFractions.InDesignPlugin plug-in. The FastFractions.InDesignPlugin plug-in requires the 9.0 version of InDesign. Please contact the vendor to get a compatible version of FastFractions.InDesignPlugin.
Show this alert again?

As already told this means that the plugin has not been ported correctly. Some part of it for ex InDesign libraries or frameworks are being referenced from the CC sdk instead of the CC2014 sdk. To troubleshoot it i would advise you to rename the folder containing the CC sdk on your machine and then compile the project, it will fail to compile and you will get to know straightaway what aspects of the ported project are still accessing the old sdk. Fix the errors and your plugin will load fine.
Thanks,
Manan

Bridge CC no compatible with the new After Effects CC 2014 ?

Hi, I'm updating the Adobe suite (CC 2014) .but After Effects CC 2014 no longer works with the old Bridge CC (there is no update of Bridge). Since "browse presets" in After Effects when choosing a preset (dissolves etc) there is an error message:
"After Effects error: can not import file" Entries lum.-marq.calque.ffx "unsupportedfiletype or extension (0 :: 1). With all presets.
I tried on other computers with other adobe updated it makes such licenses except with the old version of adobe after effects (after CC effects) I tried too to change language of Bridge and After effects (beharps this is a langage compatibility problem) but the problem is the same.
So I think the new version after effects CC 2014 is not compatible with the presets adobe bridge CC ??
How can I do? I have to go through the old version of after to apply a preset Bridge? I can not even download it in cloud creativ ... there is only the new version of after effects...

A few Problems/Glitches with InDesign CC 2014 on Windows 7 and CC on Mac OS 10.6.8

We're experiencing some quirky glitches with InDesign CC on a Mac running OS 10.6.8, and with CC 2014 on Windows 7. I'll indicate which system on each problem...
Anchored objects disappear when anchored into boxes that are, in turn, anchored into text flow.
We publish catalogs and anchor all our images to the accompanying text so that as we remove/add products, all the text and images flow together. We have several instances in which we use a box to highlight certain products. In that box might be 1, 2, 3, or more products, each with anchored images. When we anchor those boxes within the main text flow, many of the images inside the box disappear. The anchors are still there but we can't see the images. This is happening on both systems.
"Replace" field disappears when selecting anything from the “wildcard/special char.” menu in "find and replace". Windows.
Shift click to unlock master page items bring background item to foreground.
In CS4 and 5.5, if you shift-clicked to release an item from the master page, the top-most item was released. Now it seems as though the item that is farthest behind gets released first, which makes it impossible to select any other items if that one is a full-page background. Both systems.
Double/triple clicking on a word to select it does nothing.
You could literally click for 5 minutes and it wont select anything. You have to click off the box, use selection tool then click back onto the box and then it will work. You can move the cursor a few letters away and it will select the appropriate line or paragraph but it did not work this way in earlier versions. Both systems.
Any suggestions, or is it something we're doing wrong?
Thanks,
Lloyd

The list of obvious errors and glitches and illogical behaviour in all Indesign versions is long. With newer versions, some items disappeared from the list, but new ones were added.
Best is to use the Adobe bug report form to let Adobe know in hope, they really read, care and someday do something about it.

White box behind transparent images with drop shadow in InDesign CC 2014 (v.10) but not in InDesign CC (v.9)

Hi all,
Please can you help? No matter what settings I use in my print options in InDesign CC 2014 (v.10), ALL transparent images with a drop shadow are printing with a white box behind the image. If I remove the drop shadow, all prints fine. I know this is an old issue that happens with ID sometimes but I have been lucky enough to never have had it happen to me before! (All images are regular flattened TIFF images with clipping paths).
Also, feathered edges are not printing correctly and are sharp instead of feathered.
When I export the document to IDML and open it up in InDesign CC (v.9) all prints perfectly with no white boxes and feathered edges prints perfectly as well. I have compared all of the print settings (including color management, transparency flattener, etc.) between both versions and they are exactly the same. I am printing to a Xerox color laser printer. Can anyone offer any advice?
Thank you so much,
Christine

Okay...false alarm! It turns out that the issue was with my PRINTER settings (the settings you customize after hitting the “Printer” button at the bottom of the Print dialogue box in ID CC. I thought I had triple checked this but it seems there was one setting I missed earlier…adjusting the print brightness seemed to cause the issue. SO GLAD to know it was not InDesign…20 or so sheets/prints later….and thankful to know what was causing the issue! Thank you so much Steve for helping at any rate:) Much appreciated:)

Is Indesign CS4 compatible with Illustrator CS2 and Photoshop CS2?

We are a small business and have been working in the CS2 suite forever. We had someone do some work for us in Indesign CS4 and are looking to upgrade to that version so we can work with these files as changes happen. If we upgrade to Indesign CS4 will it still be compatible with the rest of my CS2 programs (Illustrator and Photoshop). Placing files and such. Thanks in advance, I know I am way behind here but it is what is cost effective for now.

Adobe only sells InDesign CC (by subscription) or InDesign CS6. You might find boxed legal copies of CS5 or 5.5 from a vendor like Amazon.
You should be very wary of buying older Adobe software on the Internet or eBay. Many copies don't have a legal license and may cause you problems in the future. Caveat emptor.
