Mac InDesign CS5: Application Frame Does Not Save

I have a new MacBook Pro with CS5. Since I am previously a PC user, I prefer to have the application frame open all the time. In Photoshop and Illustrator I was able to turn it on, size it, and the settings saved. With InDesign, however, I was able to turn it on but the size never saves--this is driving me crazy!! Any help anyone can give is very much appreciated.

It's supposed to save. Try trashing you preferences first.
Please confirm that you open CS5, set the App Frame on, Quit InDesign, re-open InDesign, and the App Frame is not on?

InDesign CS5 - Print Dialog does not load (windows).

I just installed InDesign CS5 and when I go to print a document, the print dialog does not come up. I only get an hourglass cursor. When I try to export to a PDF the resulting PDF is 0kb and obviously corrupt.
What do I do to fix this?

Don't have a clue about the print dialog, but you may be unaware that PDF export is now a background task and you may be trying to open the PDF before it's finished. To check the progress go to Window > Utilities > Background Tasks.
There are some reports of the background task stalling in certain cases. This is a bug, Adobe is aware of it, and a solution is in the works, but no definite inopfrmation on a release date for the fix is available. If you search the forum you'll find a couple of threads discussing it, including a link to a script to do the export inthe foreground if necessary.
For the print problem, you can try Replace Your Preferences, but I'm not hightly optimisitic that this is a prefs issue. It would help if you told us about the OS and your printer, and what language you installed. Have you updated to 7.0.2?

Citrix access gateway website -- the application frame does not load properly

Goal - use remote desktop via citrix website; Did work in FF in July; now (Aug) it doesn't
Problem: Application frame with link to RDP is blank
I log into website OK - three frames should be present: 1) fileshare - I don't use this & it appears to load OK; 2) websites - I don't use this & it appears to load OK ; and 3) Applications - This frame is blank but it should load a collection of links including a link to remote desktop
Behavior: If I have just cleared the history then the application frame will "clock" (this is normal) but instead of showing the links a blank frame appears; If I have NOT just cleared the history, the application frame shows the "clock" but it is frozen; slightly different but still results in blank application frame.
I have tried:
1. clear history before logging in (change in "clocking" but still results in blank application frame
2. IPV6- disable by set to true; No impact on problem; toggle back to false
3. network DNS disable prefetch; disable by set to true ; no impact on problem; toggle back to false
4. preference named plugins.load_appdir_plugins; change its value to true; no impact - set back to false
One significant change I have made "around" the time of the problem is I uninstalled norton that came preinstalled, installed adaware, and removed/ disabled the adaware browser toobar ;
I will appreciate any suggestions from the community.

FYI: The problem persists as of 9/20 with version 24.0

Mac does not save settings.

Hi, I'm new here (I haven't got my mac for a long time either), so please bear with me!
I have a problem with many programs, namely my mac does not save the settings.
Word: The change of default Czech language into Polish is not permanent. Czech comes back after the restart.
Ableton: The authorisation of the program is withdrawn when I switch the laptop. I have to authorise it again after every restart.
Cubase: It changes audio input and audio output back to internal speakers and microphone after the restart.
Additionally, for example, I have changed the preferences of video files. I have changed the default player from QuickTime to VLC. Restart undoes the changes.
Has anyone have a similar problem?
Thank you in advance for your reply.

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line on this page to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Hi ...
Checked to see how much free space there is on the startup disk lately?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If disk space is not the issue, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches that may help.
A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left corner of the screen.
From the drop down menu click Restart.
See if that makes a difference ...

Just completed a clean install of CS6 Photoshop on my Yosemite Mac Book Pro and the Adobe Application Manager does not work and cannot install a fresh copy from Adobe

Just re-installed a fresh copy of CS6 Photoshop on my Yosemite Mac Book Pro and somehow the Adobe Application Manager does not work and therefore cannot verify my copy. What should I do?
I get a message saying that Adobe Application Manager may be damaged and that I should install a new version of AAM. But after downloading a fresh copy of AAM and doing the install, the program (AAM) still will not install. It is like an infinite loop!
Please, someone help!
Thanks!

HI gener7!
I'm sorry but I am not on Creative Cloud. I'm still on CS6 and it was the Adobe Application Manager that wasn't working and I could not install the update to this application. My AAM version is: 8.0.0160
The link you provided was the update that I wanted to install but it does not work. A window shows up during that install that says:
We've encountered the following issues.
Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.
and then the link to the Adobe Support Advisor which leads to a "Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued" page.
Thanks!

C4700 scan does not save on mac 10.9.4

When I scan something from my macBook Pro (OS 10.9.4) it does the overview and says it scanned the sheet, but it does not save. It's set to go to my desktop, but is no where to be found on the mac.
Is there a download I need to load for 10.9.4? Anyone have the link? Or is another issue, and how can I correct it? (I seem to remember this happening before and it needed an update from HP.)

Welcome to the HP Forums AnnieRie,
I read your post, which indicates that the scans don't save on the Mac 10.9.4.
I can help you with this.
The drivers for Maverick are installed by the Apple Updates. The HP Scan software isn't available for Maverick.
If you have a older version, this will cause the issue you are experiencing.
I have provided a document on How to Scan: OS X v10.9. Use the Apple software for scanning.
If the issue persists then check the driver name that is installed for the printer. The Airprint driver might be installed instead of the Printer's driver. (usually defaults to Airprint)
Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen should show the name.
If the printer name shows Airprint then that is the Apple drivers, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
Here is a alternate driver provided by Apple, if you are still having issues scanning. HP Printer Drivers v.2.16.1 for OS X.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

InDesign auto-size frame feature not working in real time in InCopy why?

We have just recently migrated from InCopy CS4 to CS6 to take advantage of the new features like the auto resize frame option, however it now seems that this feature is not working in real-time.
Basically the steps are needed to be complete before it auto-resizes the frame in InCopy, we use both layout and assignment based workflows:
1. From an ID document ('doc1'), exported a 'layer' to IC, certain frames are set to auto-size in height using the text frame options. So that editorial can review and make changes to text and the frame should resize according to the specifications set. IC stories are saved to a folder located in a content folder inside the top issue working folder.
2. Editorial opens the IC software, then opens the ID 'doc1'. Check’s out correct .icml file and makes edits to frame with auto resize.
3. Frame does not resize according to text frame set options and InCopy file does not respond in same fashion as InDesign.
4. Change only occurs when InCopy file is closed and updated in InDesign, which is frustrating as this feature would save huge amounts of time serving editorial requests.
Has anybody experienced this type of workflow problem? If anyone can provide mw with some pointers as to what can I do to get this to update in real time perhaps run a script? Update file in InCopy and refresh I will very much appreciate their assistance. I have run out of ideas.
Thanks!

We've had all sorts of problems with this feature as it should've worked straight out of the box but after some testing we have found that its something to do with the way you open the actual file in InCopy. Which is far from ideal and should have been UAT by Adobe before release.
This will not work consistently work if you open the designed .indd or .icma file in InCopy using the file open command within the application.
If you need this to work, the InCopy user has to open the .indd or .icma file by dragging and droping from OS windows explorer into InCopy, we use Windows 7 acrros all the teams. Check out .icml files add text changes to the set auto resized frames, this process will expand/collapse the frames to fit the content but as you have to use the drag and drop method to open the .indd and .icma file, 2 users cannot access the same time doc at the same time (a serious flaw in the programming architecture!) which stops people working in parallel. Save changes, check in .icml content and close .indd or .icma.
However the flaw comes in if you then open the .indd and .icma file in InCopy using the file open command within the application, before an InDesign user opens and saves the file (updates the design). The corrections added in the previous stage above, will not show the frames expanded/collapsed to take in the added text and instead show over matter???? The only way around this is to ask an InDesign user to open, update and save the design that way the InCopy user will see the same result no matter what file open method they use.
Another suggestion is to design the page to have some of the auto resize frames anchored within main body of text and that way the frames will expland/collapse when checking out and editing the content. However, this does cause issues with InDesign crashing etc. so we have tried to stop this method within the working group.
Have you experienced other more serious issues with InDesign crashing consistently when re-importing .icml files? See other forums here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/671820?start=80&tstart=0
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5045608#5045608
As far as we can see this is a major flaw in how the application(s) work, we have an enterprise agreement with Adobe and purchase a large volume of Adobe products globally but so far the technical support team are unable to find a solution to this and I'm not hopeful of any resolution soon even with the new release of Adobe CC.

Javascript not working with 'Display as Text (does not saves state)'

Hi,
We have these following items in P3 of our application,
P3_EDIT_ACCOUNT Display as Text (saves state)
P3_USEFUL_LINKS Display as Text (saves state)
P3_LAST_APPROVED Display as Text (saves state)
P3_ARCHIVES Display as Text (saves state)
And we are initializing these items in a pl/sql process under 'Page Rendering'
For example,
:P3_ARCHIVES := '<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Archives</font></a><td> ';
When our environment was upgraded from HTMLDB1.5 to HTMLDB2.0,
instead of displaying the proper value of :P3_ARCHIVES,
it was displaying the tags,
i.e. instead of displaying 'Archives', it was displaying the whole
'<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Archives</font></a><td> '
So, when we changed all items to 'Display as Text (does not saves state)' and it was working.
But then we have another problem,
We render the rest of the same page with another pl/sql block,
Here is a portion from that pl/sql for your reference,
htp.p('
<script>
//Script to check the status change.
//The script source is rendered through PL/SQL.
function checkStatus()
var promptStr = someString;
if(ans.toUpperCase() == "AMBER" || ans.toUpperCase() == "RED")
          var cnfm = confirm(promptStr);
          if(cnfm)
          do something....
</script>
htp.print('
<td width="5%" bgcolor="#ebebc5" height="19" align="middle" >
<input TYPE="radio" name="'||l_g_fnumber||'" value="GREEN"');
IF l_allow_update THEN
     htp.print(' onClick="checkStatus()"');
ELSE
htp.print(' disabled onmousedown="return false;"');
                    do something....
Now the issue is , when we changed all items to 'Display as Text (does not saves state)', the checkStatus() function is not getting called in the onClick
event of the radio button and hence the confirm window for the call to
confirm(promptStr) is not coming up.
But if we revert back the items to 'Display as Text (saves state)',
the checkStatus() javascript function is getting called properly but html tags are displayed against the items instead of the proper value (as mentioned in ********)
Please do let us know a possible solution to this issue.
Thanks & Regards-
Rupak

Thanks Varad for your response.
This is the error i am getting.
1 error has occurred
PLSQL anonymous block source type can be used ONLY with Display Text (based on PLSQL) item type.
yes i am using in the source..
I also tried with the PL/SQL Expression of FUNCTION in this case it is executing the query but once i run the page ora- 06550 error occured.
Thanks

View Object Editor in JHS 10.1.2 does not save any changes....

Hi,
When I did exactly as the JHeadstart Tutorial says, I noticed that
in JHeadstart 10.1.2 with JDeveloper 10.1.2
JHeadstart does not save any changes I make in the View Object Editor
of the Application Structure File Editor !!!
For instance when I change the Width property of an Attribute from 60 to 5
it changes to 5, but when close the View Object Editor
and reopen it again, the Width is back to 60...
Even when I click the button "Validate the Application Structure File" before
closing the VO Editor....
What do I do ??? Is the only solution to edit the XML file
or something like that without using the VO Editor ?
Or is there a better solution ?
Does it maybe work in an older version of JHeadstart ?
If so, where is the older version available for download ?
Thanks,
Eric Joosse

Eric,
How did you leave the JHeadstart VO editor?
The changes should be saved when you click the OK button in the VO editor itself, but they are not saved if you click Cancel, or the little cross in the upper right corner, or leave it open while going back to the Application Structure File editor. That's because it's a standalone editor (you can also find it when right-mouse-clicking the VO in the Model project). The icon in the Application Structure File editor is just a quick way to get to it.
Hope this helps,

Thumbnail Previews in Mac InDesign CS5

In Mac InDesign CS5, the thumbnail previews are no longer saved as a PICT resource. The previews seem to be embedded within the InDesign document.
I have an XCode Cocoa application that can preview CS2 - CS4 documents by importing the PICT resource as an NSPICTImageRep. Is there any way to extract the preview from a CS5 document programatically?
Thank you!

.. no longer saved as a PICT resource ..
Were they ever? InDesign documents are platform-independent, and Windows wouldn't want to use PICT resources. I don't think ID documents have ever had native thumbnails -- perhaps you had a Finder utility that did it for you.
In any case: in CS5, and, to a lesser extent, also in previous versions, JPEG previews are saved at the end of each document in an XML format. If you search the Scripting forum for "XML preview" (or something similar), you might find scripts that can extract them for you.

Why the "Actions" does not save the Overprint Black

Hi!
Ai CC 17.0.0
Why the "Actions" does not save the Overprint Black?
I can not create an action that will automate this time a very common activity?
Why?
Best Regards!

I was just able to. I am in Illustrator 6 on a Mac OS 10.6. I started a new action and went through the menu just like your screen shot, chose my options and clicked ok, then stopped recording the action.
I found to use the action I had to have something selected.
I see that you are in Illustrator CC, perhaps there is a difference there. But for the record, on my system, it worked.

I have PS CS5. It does not recognize .CR2 files from my new Canon PowerShot SX50HS camera. Can I update my CR plugin? To what version? Where can I get it?
