My ID files will no longer open?: I need to update our catalog. Please help

My archived ID Files will no longer open in ID 2014. Please help, I need to update our catalog.

If the files come from very old versions, like pre-CS (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) you have to open them in older versions of InDesign first. Try to open them in CS6 (this is the oldest version which comes with the CC subscription), otherwise go back to CS4 which could open every previous version and save it with the version you use.

  • My 5.85 Gig psb file will no longer open.

    I've been working on a psb file for a couple of days in CS6 and this morning the file would no longer open. I get a dialogue box that says "the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop". I've been using the same version all along so I know this is not a version problem. My backup file has the same problem. I need help or I've lost a couple of days of work.
    I can open a flatened version of the file in Illustrator CS6 but can't open a layered version. It would apear that the file has become corrupted in the layers somehow. Any thoughts on how I might be able to fix the original psb file and reserect the layers?

    Hi Robert
    I have no idea if it is relevant to your issue, but have run into trouble with background saving after it was introduced with CS6, and a 6Gb file is going to take a while to save on the best of systems.
    Can you tell us about the backup file?  Did you save an earlier version with a different name, for instance?  What are their file sizes?
    Out of interest, I just knocked up a 6Gb file, saved as a PSB, and turned off the warning dialogue.  (It was taking 12 seconds to load and save to a raid0 with two 2nd gen v'raptors)   I then tried to force an error while saving, and the only way to make that happen would have been to shut Windows 7, and tell it I didn't care about lost data.  I'm sure you wouldn't have done that!
    So I guess your next step is to Google PSD file recovery options. A recent poster had success with one of them, and you might find the thread if you search.

  • Why will adobe file will no longer open from a website?

    On a Macbook using 10.6.8 adobe file used to open from websites and has suddenly stopped opening.

    Just to add I had a prolonged discussion with the person on AdobeCare twitter, and they sent me to this page: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
    Which didn't help as those are solutions up to Os x.7
    And the little license repair software that they advise you to download doesn't work on my system.

  • Safari will no longer open.  I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari.  I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files.

    Safari will no longer open. It just goes back to my desktop.  When I right click on the safari icon in my dashboard it says it is open.  I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari.  I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files. Some of my emails from trusted sites won't open and does the same thing. 
    I upgraded my original system from 10.4.11 to I believe 10.6. something about a year or so ago.  I thought about re installing my safari app but when I go to open anything connected to safari my screen goes back to the desktop.  I cant open any files that I have on my desktop that I set up through safari, like my banking program. Prior to changing system preference to safari default I was able to open those files and now I can't get into change it back.  Can you guide me through this?
    Thanks,
    Betty

    Try running the 10.6.8 combo update.
    10.6.8 Combo Updater
    System Preferences or Safari Preferences?
    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

  • Pages 5 document will no longer open in pages 5

    I upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago and afterwards, I had both Pages '09 and Pages 5 in my dock, instead of one of them being in the applications folder. They are both still in my dock. I have looked briefly at Pages 5 and determined that, at this time, I prefer Pages '09. All of my documents were created in Pages '09 and now they will no longer open in Pages '09. (Some will, and I don't know what the difference is between the ones that will and the ones that won't) When I try to open one, it either opens, no problem, or I get the message "The required index.xml file is missing." This message is in a rectangle with an icon representative of Pages '09 (the inkwell). Since it has this icon, I'm assuming that I was trying to open it in the Pages '09 version, which is what I intended o do. Since this didn't work, I tried to right click and "Open with Pages.app (4.0.5)" and got the same message. I was a little afraid to try to open it in Pages 5, since I've heard rumors that this could ruin the document. I would like to be able to use either of the apps but, since I apparently can't do that, I gathered my courage and opened a document in Pages 5. Everything seemed to be okay, so I opened a couple more. One of them, I even was able to edit with no problem. But when I tried to open it again hours later, I got an error message saying ". . . can't be opened because it is from an "unidentified developer". What's going on here? The only people involved in this document are Apple and me. What "unidentified developer" are they talking about? And why was it fine, then a few hours later it was not accessible? If I'm forced to use only Pages 5, I guess I can live with that, but it seems as though I will have to live in constant fear that, at any time, my document will not open. I've read about a lot of other people who are having problems, too, but not this particular one. I'm at a loss and, like everybody else, I have important documents that I need access to. I'm using an iMac and 10.9.4. What to do?? I need my stuff!

    1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
    Turn off auto-update here:
    Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
    2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
    They point to where the apps really are which is:
    For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
    For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
    3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
    Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
    right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
    4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
    It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
    You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
    Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
    5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
    Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
    Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

  • I recently upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2 and Aperture 2.1.4 will no longer open.  I cannot access my photos and I don't want to pay for latest version of Aperture since this application is no longer going to be supported.  How can I get my pictures?

    If you want just the originals, then you can go into the Aperture library (right click on it and do "show package contents"). Inside is a directory called "Masters" and you can find the original files in a bunch of subfolders.
    But... you'll lose all adjustments, keywords, and other information, and just have the files as they were imported originally from the cameras.
    Easiest is probably to buy Aperture and update everything, and then migrate to the Photos application down the road if that's what you want. Aperture 3.0 came out in 2010 (five years ago!) so it's not like you've upgraded in a while

  • ITunes will no longer open

    Hi there,
    I have installed the newer version of iTunes, and it will no longer open when I click on the desktop icon, or use the Start/Programs/iTunes/iTunes. All I see is the hourglass for about 2 seconds, and then nothing. I have uninstalled and re-installed many times.
    I have also read thru some articles here and have tried:
    Go to My Computer\Tools\Folder Options\View and then choose "View All Hidden Files". Click OK. In My Computer, go to these files- local disk C:\documents and settings\all users\application data\apple computer\itunes\sc info and inside that is a file called SC Info.sidb and delete that. Check back to see if it opens after you complete that.
    Still nothing works
    I have disabled both Spyware and Sygate Firewalls ~ still nothing. I am unable download any music to my iPod at this time.
    If you could offer some other suggestions, I would really appreciate it ~ or even if I could re-install the original version of iTunes, but don't know where this could be found.
    Thanks

    Hi, I've just managed to solve the same problem on my PC running WindowXP. As a clarification: I do NOT have Norton Security etc. or Norton Anti-Virus etc. installed; my search on these forums have revealed that there are problems associated with the above progs. In any case, a summary of the problem:
    *Installed the iTunes package which came on disc for my iPod nano. Upgraded/Downloaded etc, etc, per instructions.
    *Upgraded to iTunes 6.0.4.
    * Launched upgraded iTunes. It worked. I was happy. I fiddle around with my new, fancy gadget.
    * I go to work and then return. Attempted to launch iTunes. It didn't work. Fiddled around with running programs. iTunes suddenly came to life. I was happy.
    * I shutdown iTunes.
    *Attempted to launch iTunes again, didn't work - mouse shows 'busy' animation with hourglass then resumes; iTunes doesn't start-up. I was unhappy.
    *Attempted to launch quicktime, same result - doesn't start-up. I was puzzled.
    *deleted the SC info.sidb file as you have done, attempted to launch iTunes and quicktime, unsuccessful. I was unhappy.
    Solution (at least, for me)
    * I decided to risk utterly destroying my computer.
    * Uninstalled quicktime.
    * Downloaded and installed quicktime standalone.
    * Rebooted.
    * Tested quicktime - launched, and was working.
    * Attempted to launch iTunes - no-go.
    * I scream "you shall not defeat me!"
    * Via control panel->Add/Remove Programs, I uninstalled iTunes.
    * Rebooted per on-screen instructions.
    * Reinstalled iTunes 6.0.4.
    * Attempted to launch iTunes - launched successfully. I sighed in utter, complete relief.
    Some oddities with my install: I didn't select iTunes as the default player for my music files, I don't quite know how this changes things; I suspect it doesn't.
    Anyway, I rebooted about 3-4 times to test if iTunes would continue launching. It seems to be working fine. Knowing how fragile software is, however, it's bound to fall apart again. Or maybe I'm being pessimistic.

  • Firefox will no longer open completely. My home page appears, but I can't do anything with it. See "details" box for full description.

    Firefox will no longer open completely. My home page appears, but I can't do anything with it--can't use "Help," can't search the Web, can't even use "Sign Out." I have to close it entirely to get out of it. A box comes up and says "Yahoo Mail is loading especially slowly" and tells me my computer speed is slow. But this is the same computer I've always used for Firefox, and Yahoo comes up quickly and completey through Internet Explorer (which is how I'm sending this message). Can anyone help me load Firefox so that it works? I even downloaded the latest version of Firefox, but it makes no difference. Thanks.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
    You can also try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that works.

  • Spreadsheet will no longer open in iCloud

    Just yesterday a file I've been working on for months will no longer open in Numbers.  The file is in iCloud and the first error I received was a warning on my Mac that the file could not be Autosaved.  I tried to save it manually (to the cloud) but it wouldn't do that either.  I closed out the application on the Mac and restarted it.  I then tried to open the file and got the "You need a newer version of Numbers..." message.  I'm using Numbers 3.1 and have been for a while.  The file in question was created with Numbers 3.x.  I am NOT using an older version of Numbers - I realize that this is usually the problem when that message occurs but it is not the issue here.  I am using 3.1 and have been editing this file with 3.1 for over a month (or every since the update came out).
    I also access this same file from my iPad Air (using iOS7).  However, it also will not open the file - it gets an equivalent "newer version" message for iOS.  What's also strange is that on iOS it shows the spreadsheets in iCloud with a preview icon.  Since this problem started yesterday, the file in question now has a generic Numbers icon, similar to the Numbers App icon in iOS7.  What's stranger still is that several other spreadsheets have this same icon and cannot be opened.  Some of these are old files.  Other, newer, files are unaffected and can be opened.
    Anybody have any ideas?

    I tried to save it manually (to the cloud) but it wouldn't do that either.
    That may be a clue that you should check to make sure iCloud is still active on your machine. System Preferences > iCloud > Documents & Data > Numbers.app.
    Also see if your latest iCloud synced documents are there: in Finder   Go > Library > Mobile Documents > com~apple~Numbers.

  • Illustrator cs will no longer open.

    I installed cs3 design premium on a MacBook about a month ago. Now Illustrator will no longer open and a pop up appears saying "Unable to set maximum number of files to be opened." However, all the other programs in the design suite are running fine. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the cs3 and I keep getting the same error message. I'm a web designer and I really need this for work.
