My Illustrator and Indesign crash constantly. Who is able to help ?

gha,
Raghuveer is asking you to send him a message (see post #4) to arrange a session where he can help you.
Basically, this is a User to User forum, but with Adobe staff participation.

CS6 Photopshop, Illustrator and Indesign crash upon opening Window 8 64-bit.

Runnning Genuine CS6 Photopshop, Illustrator and Indesign crash upon opening without any error message... worked fine then stopped working. Running it on Window 8 64-bit. Have tried opening without 3d party plugins, resetting preferences, and uninstalling and reinstalling.

did you clear the caches?
and onthe off-chance that ID got far enough to leave something behind, find the InDesign Recovery folder (a hidden folder, I think, since Snow Leopard or Lion) and empty it if there's anything there.

CC Illustrator and InDesign crashing when moving objects

This problem began a week ago out of nowhere. I didn't install anything new or update anything that would cause any sort of conflict (as far as I know). I've tried suggestions in other posts such as trashing prefs, reinstalling, signing out of CC, moving folder, unplugging mouse, etc. I previously had CS6 installed and it was happening in those versions too.
I reformatted my entire computer to see if that fixed the issue, and the first thing I reinstalled was CC to ensure there wasn't anything else causing a conflict, but it is still crashing.

Hi bodeintern,
You can try these steps:
1     Try disabling the printers (If connected Wired or wireless)
2     Try making the Plugins folder as Plugins old in Application folder and then try to launch. If it works try to isolate the issue by moving a few plugins and then reload.
3     Try enabling the root user account and then try.
Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
4     Make sure Verdana and Tahoma fonts should be enabled.

Why do my CS4 Illustrator and InDesign crash occasionally with Mavericks?

I can not print a "booklet" in InDesign any more. Trying will crash the program. I've had crashes with Illustrator while moving imported images. This only began after upgrading from 10.6.8 to Mavericks.

Just found your question as I was looking for the same. Might be a bit late but this worked for me.

Adobe Illustrator and InDesign CS5 crash when trying to place images. Happens around 5+ times a day.

Hi there
This Mac is quite new and was originally a migration (using Migration Assistant) from an older Mac.
Illustrator and InDesign in CS5 were both crashing often and most of the time it's when placing an image (in either application) – it doesn't crash each time I try to place an image, but 90% of the crashes are when placing an image.
We tried lots of things, like cleaning out the fonts, clearing font caches etc. After several months of that, we decided to wipe the Mac clean and start from scratch. It has been reformatted with a clean install of the OS and only minimal additional software added. Although quite a few fonts have been reinstalled, they all validate in Font Book.
One other thing of note is that the Adobe Updater fails to complete an update and so we have had to update each application manually from the Adobe website.
I would be so grateful someone could help shed some light on what is going on. Here's an EtreCheck report. Can also provide crash reports from the Console if useful.
Thanks!

Here's an EtreCheck report – couldn't post it on here for some reason, but I have it on a post in Apple Community Forums, here... https://discussions.apple.com/message/26970885?ac_cid=op123456. Can also provide crash reports from the Console if useful.
Thanks in advance. Any ideas gratefully received – I've run out!
ps. I have 10 colleagues with same OS version and CS5 (some even have the exact same model of Mac). They don't have this issue.

Thanks, I will do.

Capacity of the computer to handle all programmes from Adobe - and at least: photoshop, illustrator and Indesign and a website.

Can you tell me what kind of capacity the computer needs in order to handle all programmes from Adobe - and at least: Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign and a Website (Adobe or Wordpress)?
My computer an Acer from 2005 with a 32 bit Ram and Window Vista - could not even download Photoshop - and I need to buy a new one - as I have to build my own Website - a newssite.
What technical data should I look after in a new computer to fulfill my needs?
Is Windows 7 the best to use for handling Adobe?
Greetings Yuola

The important things are DISKS 2x 1To ,32 RAM okay ,very important the choice of processor and video cart that up to people who know your needs on your PC, harlan heuker

Illustrator and InDesign not responding

Illustrator and InDesign keep shutting down or not responding. I am using large files(Im designing wallpaper for my final piece, i do it on Photoshop, then try and transfer parts to Illustartor to put it together and get it to line up at the edges etc) so i dont know whether thats the problem, Ive tried shrinking them down but i dont want to shink them too much incase they are all pixelated when i print them out

Nobody can tell anything without some system info and exact details about your documents. most such crashes have nothing to do with teh programs themselves, but rather specific things being used in the files like certain fonts, color profiles and so on...

CS3 Illustrator and Indesign problems

I am still using CS3 and have recently reinstalled (uninstalled from old comp) onto a new computer with double the capacity - now 8GB 64 bit OS Wind 7 Prof. Since it has been on the new computer both Illustrator and Indesign close down on opening. Indesign I haven't been able to use successfully, but I am using Illustrator, slowly and patiently. The message on Indesign is basically the same each time, 'No virtual memory, free up memory' or similar. Illustrator opens asking to relink/replace all images & graphic, but closes down each time I try to relink through this prompt. What I do is 'ignore' and then manually relink. This seems to work for awhile, then goes into 'Illustrator Not Responding' will either freeze or close down, either way I loose what I have just done.
What can the problem be, apart from it being CS3, no use saying I need to upgrade, because the company will not do that. Do I need to download a patch or update etc. Help, getting a little impatient with it all.
Cheers
Donna

Short answer: CS3 is not tested and not certified to run on Win 7. Therefore, at the riosk of sounding rude, as far as Adobe is concerned, your problems are your own. There are no patches or magic buttons to push. All you can hope is to maximize compatibility by turning off UAC, using compatibility mode for Win XP, running with admin privileges and so on. Talk to your IT department/ person. If you can provide exact system info and the crash details, we may be able to advise further.

Printing problem with Epson R290 Illustrator and inDesign

I am running CS2 on Leopard and have recently purchased an Epson R290. The first time I used it with Illustrator and InDesign it worked fine but now whenever I print anything it prints a tiny version (about a sixth of the real size) of the design in the top left corner of the page. It does this both with new documents and old ones that used to print ok.

Since I posted the message about this problem I have discovered that it can be worked around by choosing a higher quality print. ie if you choose plain paper when printing from Illustrator or InDesign the printer prints a reduced size image but if you choose Ink jet mat or glossy the print comes out fine. I don't have this problem with Photoshop but that may be that I always print high quality from that application. I don't use Appleworks Draw so don't know whether this solves the problem for that application but iWork documents print ok.

My CC, Illustrator and InDesign don't open

My CC app, Illustrator and Indesign don't open.
They just don't respond to anything. And the CC app doesn't appear on my dock. Adobe Manager doesn't work either. the only program that works is premiere.
NO problem appers on screen, they just don't respond.
What should I do?What can I do?Please help.

Hi C_maf,
As a testing purpose could you please try opening the applications in root account: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528 and let us know if still the same issue.

Adobe Illustrator and InDesign Error code 16 - Help!!!!

I installed Adobe Illustrator and InDesign on Windows 8.1. They worked great until I closed the programs and tried to open them up again. I now get the error code 16. I re-installed several times now and each time I close either one of the programs and reopen, I get the same error code 16. I've done a clean uninstall and re-install and I've followed the procedures about ensuring that file permissions were correct. No luck.
