Missing plugin in CS4 InDesign

Hello,
I have the CS4 Standard Suite for my MacBook Pro and when I open InDesign, it says that I am missing the LILO plugin (the toolbar is missing!) Can I reinstall it somehow. Thank you!

I got it here Download CS4 products.
Can you please at least TRY to help me set ip up?
Best we can do for you is to suggest uninstalling, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 ) and then run the installer again. It would probably be a good idea to restart your Mac holding down the Shift key before you do the reinstall to disable unnecessary extensions.

Missing plugin from CS4

InDesign CC2014 will not package file due to missing plugin from CS4. Help, please.

@VS_Color – what plugin is missing?
Try export or save the indd file to IDML, open the IDML, save it under a new name and then do the packaging.

Missing Plugins prevent CS4 Program opening?

Hi,
I have InDesign CS4 (Vista) and have not opened it in a while (purchased Jan 2009 via download).
Yesterday the program refused to open - can't get past the splash screen.
The program is looking for these two items:
("failed to open...")
WORLDREADY.RPLN
SCRIPTS PANEL.APLN
When it cannot find them, I get this message:
Cannot load InDesign.exe because it requires WorldReady. Please install the WorldReady plug-in and restart InDesign.
I've searched the forums and download/update pages, and am not finding anything that seems to help. Should I re-download and re-install the product?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Missing plugin in ID CS4

Hi,
When I opened the Indesign CS4 document, it shows the message
mm.ms.im.Kernel.IndesignPlugin
"The document 'sample.indd' used one or more plugin-ins ..."
Question 1: Is there any way that, if there is any missing plugin shows, then the file should not opened by indesign. Is there any way to do this within Indesign application.
Question 2: If that plugin is realy not used in the Indesign document, Is there is any way to remove the missing plugin information's from the Indesign document without saving as .inx .
Please suggest me on this two questions.
Thanks for the help.

No, It is not a CS5 file.
This file is created in ID CS4. When we open the same file in another mac machine which have ID CS4, it shows the missing plugin information.
Actually, this plugin is not used in the document.
My question here is, since the plugin is not actually used in the document, why the ID CS4 shows the missing plugin dialog when we open the file.
Is there any way to avoid this dialog while opening the file.
Thanks,
Gopal

How to Open an Indesign file with a missing plugin

Is there a way to open a file that has a missing plugin?
This is the case:
We used an outside designer who is on CS5 indesign and teacup barcode software plugin cs5
We received his files saved back to CS4, but it is still telling us there is a missing plugin.
I'm assuming it is Teacup software. Is there a way around this??

You should try to be as accurate as possible when describing your situation. For example, you say the file was “saved back to CS4”. That is impossible. There is no way to save an InDesign CS4 file from any program except InDesign CS4. Do you mean that the designer exported an .idml file from InDesign CS5? If so, then say so. If you have been given an InDesign .indd file saved from InDesign CS5, then you have an InDesign CS5 file, not an InDesign CS4 file.

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).

How to avoid Indesign missing plugin information

Hi,
We are facing one problem in our ID document.
In one of our Indesign CS4 machine (MAC), we have Powermath plugin installed.
And we have created a new Indesign document in that machine. Here the powermath is not used in the document.
When we opened this document in another Indesign CS4 machine, we are asked the missing plugin information even though that plugin is not used in that document?
Can anyone tell me how to avoid missing plugin information while opening the document.
Thanks,
Gopal

Export the document to IDML and open that. That should strip out the plug in info.

Trying to package InDesign file, gets missing plugin error

I've been trying to package this magazine and it keeps telling me i'm missing this external plugging called 'asset management.InDesignPlugin'. when i try googling it i can't find anything.

If Peter's solution does not help, here's another way, because the missing plugin might just be incorrectly registered or not at all:
1. Find the location of your Indesign preferences file, copy it to a safe place, delete the original.
2. Start Indesign - it will re-register all plugins. Close Indesign again.
3. Write back the saved prefs file to the original location.

Trying to open a saved down idml file in CS4. Updated CS4 but still missing plugins?

I'm trying to open both an inx file as well as an idml file exported from CS5. I have CS4 and it is updated as far as it will go, but it still says I'm missing plugins. And a lot too... 19 of them! Does anyone know how I can get these plugins? It's requesting them for both the inx file and the idml file.

That is indicative of someone simply renaming an INDD file to IDML. In other words, that file wasn’t EXPORTED from anything. It was saved with a different extension or renamed after saving.

CS3/CS4 - Persistent data results in missing plugin warning

Hi,
In my plugin I add persistent data to kDocBoss and kSplineItemBoss.
If the users of my plugin sends a document to one that do not have the plugin, a missing plugin dialog is shown. This is not a big problem, however, users without the plugin are unable to package the document due to the missing plugin!
Is it possible to make InDesign discard persistent data if the plugin is not available, so that the document no more depends on the plugin?
I will be thankful if somebody can give me a hint on this problem.
Kind regards Toke

Hi again,
IgnoreTags solved my problem

CS4 InDesign issues.... LILOplugin

Hi,
I'm pretty stumped with this issue. I am receiving a LILO.indesign plugin missing message when opening a file. It opens fine on another machine using CS4 indesign so should work. Have tried re-installing the suite.
Version: CS4 indesign 6.06
OS: Lion
Please help!

Saving as .IDML does not fix missing plugins error message

Hello,
I am having trouble rectifying a "Missing Plugins" error message.
I create an InDesign file using CS5 and am providing the file for a client of mine who is using CS3. I have saved the file as an .IDML to ensure it is reverse compatible.
When attempting to open the file, my client receives the following Missing Plugins error.
Missing Plugins:
WorldReady.InDesignPlugin
Dynamic Documents.InDesignPlugin
Conditional Text.InDesignPlugin
My client's version of CS3 and my version of CS5 are both "up to date."
Any additional suggestions to fix this issue so that I can provide a file my client can open?
Many thanks in advance.

If you have CS4 you can open the IDML there and export it to INX but to
expect a perfect translation would be a stretch.

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

Illustrator missing plugins PDF Format.aip Were is it?

Any one!
When I try to launch illustrator I get an error saying it is missing plugins PDF Format.aip.
I am unable to get the program loaded it stops loading altogether. I have tried reinstalling the program as well no luck.
I am on a PC with Windows XP needed to replace hard drive and do a new reinstall of Adobe CS4.
Everything is updated and installed fine. Photoshop and others work fine Just Illustrator.
Did search on the net not much help there can any help here!
I can not even find a plug in called PDFFormat.aip!!
Why would Illustrator need a PDF plugin?
Any suggestions!

It might just be a permissions problem you have to manually fix it on the windows platform but it should read on all the directories dow to the file itself
like such
that is where it says Sharing and Permissions you can on the PC find it in the properties panel I believe. On the mac control or right click on the applications icon, folder and file to get info.
