Network Connection Was Lost/InDesign Shutting Down

Having searched the good old internet for over a week to find a solution, I have failed miserably. Any other users of Creative Cloud 10.2.0.69 found a solution to the network disconnection and subsequent shut down of the software?
For Info:
This is happening on 2 separate Mac OS Mavericks 10.9.5
The files are stored on a Windows 2008 R2 server
Network speed is 1Gbps
Surely someone has solved this by now?

Hi John,
When network connectivity issues prevent any version of InDesign or InCopy from reading from or writing to open files, it performs a protective shutdown.
The shutdown can appear to be an application crash or unexpected quit. However, it is intentional behavior to protect from data loss.

InDesign - The network connection was lost

I see a few threads in regards to this problem but I don't either understand or see a credible fix for it. I work for a company that has a creative services department. In total there are about 20 employees, all with the same image on their Mac. The Mac models themselves can vary but I have one user who has had two different Macs now and she continues to be the only one in the department who has this problem. Randomly she will get the following errors from InDesign CS6 vr. 8.0.1 on OS X 10.9. She works on files from a server. Illustrator doesn't have this issue working from the same sever but InDesign does. This can happen while she is actively using the Mac so there isn't anything turning off or going to hibernate mode.
The network connection was lost for the file XXXXXXX.indd, or the file was modified by another process.
Followed by
Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart InDesign to recover work in any unsaved InDesign documents.
To troubleshoot I have done the following:
1) Deleted the InDesign prefs.
2) Updated the CS 6 suite
3) Changed out network cable
4) With new cable, swapped her network port with another users network port. Problem still stayed with the user.
5) Had the network team monitor her port with a sniffer. They found nothing wrong with it.
6) Updated OS X 10.9
7) Removed CS 6 and re-installed.
Not sure what else to do.

Mac server or Windows server? Have you checked her permissions/access vs another user not having the issue?

Indesign CS3 error: "Network connection was lost..."

Hi
Anybody out there experiencing this error message when working in Indesign on Snow leopard? "Network connection was lost..."
Funny thing is the machine is not connected to a server or internet.
The indesign doc had been fine, saved it, closed it, reopened it and exported a pdf. When I went to re-open it, the error came.
Now, I read online that there have been issues with renaming docs, or folders, possibly with relocating them. Someone else suggested it may be a registry problem.
This problem is NOT fixed by trashing preferences or by repairing permissions or disk.
Thanks!

Hello Studio Guy,
I was just searching the forums to see if anyone else was experiencing the 'network connection was lost' issue from InDesign CS3 and came across your note.
Did you manage to find a solution for this?
We work on a network on PCs using Vista and we are getting this error message regularly and have no idea why.
Like you say this problem is NOT fixed by trashing preferences or by repairing permissions or disk.
Did you find a solution?
cheers,

Network connection was lost for the file

Indesign CS4 6.0.6
2012 27" iMac
OSX 10.8
My InDesign has been crashing and I get the following two error messages.
"The network connection was lost for the file...
"Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart InDesign to recover work in any unsaved InDesign documents."
As a result of the crash my Indesign file get deleted as well as the parent folder and all of its content including various file types. This has happened twice to me now, luckily I am running hourly backups but it is still extremely frustrating. I am not sure if this is a problem with the Adobe software or my mac server, but I thought I would start here first.
Thanks for any help that you can offer
- Katie

"Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected."
Normal, but arguably unacceptable behavior with InDesign if the network hiccups or stops while working accross a network. Adobe/InDesign does not formally support network work, which is insane in the typical environment.
The loss of a file or folder is not typical.

Java scripts "network connection was lost" error ???

Hello... I think I have a problem with Java.... I can't click certain links on pages, or watch vids on Hulu (the vid doesn't even load & no play button). At the bottom of Safari there is a message "# errors occurred in opening this page..." so I follow the directions and go to Window->Activity, and all of the error messages say "The network connection was lost" next to all of the addresses ending in .js (which I think is java script, lol I don't even know) I've been to a site to check to see if Java is working, and it says it's working, and its enabled in my preferences. I've also tried Firefox, Camino, & Flock and still have the same problems. Anyone know how to fix this???

Hi,
*"I've also tried Firefox, Camino, & Flock and still have the same problems."*
Since the issue effects all the browsers....
Hulu requires the Flash Player plugin. You might benefit from uninstalling your current version then reinstall a new copy.
Uninstall Flash
Install Flash
Then From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1594
Make sure Safari is running in 32-bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. *Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
If you still have problems with Safari, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

HT4550 I get a "network connection was lost" at the end of a download. filesize seems to be complete.

Trying to download a couple of documents from an iTunesU course. The file seems to download properly, then at the very end says that the "network connection was lost" and the file in finder has a .download filename suffix, e.g. Lecture 1_1.pdf.download. There are 2 files in the list that are doing this. The rest came down properly.
Is this a problem with safari or the download page I am using?
Any ideas about what to do next?

David...
Try posting in the iTunes U community as well > https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes_u
Also, with iTunes open, click Help from the iTunes menu bar top of your screne.
Type iTunes U in the search field top right corner of that window.
Try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy (or just Security > Firewall

"Hotspot login could not open the page because the network connection was lost"

So, I've been trying to connect to the login for our school's wifi for a while now, but instead of like going into the sign in spot where you accept the terms of use agreement for our wifi, the pop up screen says "Hotspot loging could not open the page because the network connection was lost". This is on my iPod touch 2nd Generation, and I've never had this problem before, but it popped up like 4-5 weeks ago, and I haven't been able to log in since. Anybody else solve this problem/ have it and could give me advice on how to solve it? That would be great, thanks and see you fellow Applers later!!

1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar at bottom
2. Hold the Safari app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close app
4. Re-launch the app and test
Note: If necessary close all apps in the Task Bar

You profile indicates you are running v10.6.7
If that is the case, updating your system software may help. Click your Apple menu icon top left corner of your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update...

"We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was lost." ***???

Thanks for such a great update!!!

I used to have activation problems. now I am getting same error
"We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was lost." "

Unable to check available dowloads. The network connection was lost.

I get this all the time in iTunes 12.1: "unable to check available dowloads. The network connection was lost."
Sometimes it does what it's supposed to do anyway, sometimes it doesn't. I also get the: "We could nor complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was lost". If I sign out and back in that goes way, but item #1 is still showing up all the time. Even when nothing is apparently happening?

I am uploading a 2 gb file into my application using chrome in my MacBook Pro, i keep getting an error (FAILED to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET) when the file is 100% uploaded and the file starts uploading from the beginning (1%... and so on). This issue is not happening when i am doing the file upload using chrome in my windows 7 machine. I Also noticed in the same MacBook if i upload through Safari i get the same error (failed to load resource the network connection was lost). Please let me know what additional information i can provide technically.

common guys..nobody have any solution for this...i have seen many people complaining about large file upload issues in MacBooks which wont happen in windows.

Unable to check for available downloads. the network connection was lost

in my downloads window in iTunes it shows i have "28 iTunes downloads available". when i try to download them, i get the error "Unable to check for available downloads. the network connection was lost."
my connection is fine though, as i can individually download purchases by clicking on the cloud icon.

I followed the advice on Holgr's link, i used screen flow to capture the error message, and then made the video available to apple support. My issue was immediately escalated, and my account started working again shortly after.
I received no additional messages from tech support, i had no idea the problem was resolved until i tried it again.

I have the ipad2 with the latest Os upgrade. On certain websites, I get the following error message: cannot open page. Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost. I have rebooted, turned off wifi and reset the password.

This is happening to only certain websites. Unfortunately, the work ones that I need to access. I appreciate any help.
Error message:
Cannot open page
Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost
I reset the wifi and the password, I also rebooted several times.

Do you have any other browsers on your iPad? If you don't have one, why don't you try downloading one of these free browsers - they will all be "lite" versions (not full featured) - but if you can access these websites with one of those - then I assume that we can point to Safari as being the culprit. That will not solve the Safari problem, but it will give us another point from which to work.

I have Mercury, iCab Mobile, Opera, Dolphin and Atomic. iCab Mobile - the paid version is great.
BTW ... have you tried to access these sites from another WiFi connection - like a library, a friend's house - any other WiFi network?
