No control palette? CS2 InDesign Windows

I've installed CS2 upgrade (on Pagemaker) on home computer (Windows XP). I use a newer version at work, but I got this program free. There is no control palette. I uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. Does anyone have a suggestion of how to get it in view?

Peter: There is no "control" under window drop down menu.

  • InDesign CS4 Horizontal scale in control palette

    Hi all,
    Today is my first day in the CS4 version of InDesign! Enjoying it a LOT so far! I just cannot seem to find the usual text horizontal scale in the control palette...as it was per default in earlier ID versions. How do I get it back there? I can always make a trip to the character palette but that takes a bit longer. It is really handy always having it there at the top.
    Thanks a lot for your assistance in advance!
    Best regards,
    Christine

    There are a couple possibilities. Which controls appear depend on your monitor resolution. Some drop off if there isn't space. Also, go to choose Customize from the Control panel flyout menu and make sure those options are checked.
    Finally, you could have to restore preferences for InDesign if those don't fix it.

  • InDesign CS2 on Windows 7 issues

    I am trying to export to a pdf file and it is giving me an error message saying it has failed to export.  I have been using CS2 on Windows 7 for over a year and this is the first time it has not allowed me to export.  Any suggestions? 

    Before you give up, though, it might be the document, not CS2. See Adobe Community: File Crashing on Output - printing/PDF/other for some tips on how to troubleshoot.

  • Where is the Floating Align Palette in InDesign CC?

  • Nepali characters in CS2 InDesign

    I have to copy Nepali characters (Mangal font) from a Word document to CS2 InDesign. My problem is that when I past them in InDesign, some characters change. Where could this change come from? (The autocorrect is not enabled)

    My problem is that when I past them in InDesign, some characters change. Where could this change come from? (The autocorrect is not enabled)
    If you are interested (beyond simply "I need it to work") - complex scripts like this one require a lot of conditional glyph changes. So a vowel that prints by itself will leap up above a particular consonant when it appears next to it, for example. Much like cursive in English, but far more complicated. This is true of a wide variety of languages - many scripts from southeast and central Asia, all Arabic-related scripts, Tibetan, and so on.
    MS Word uses Windows native Unicode rendering to display such complex-script characters. Adobe using a completely separate type-rendering engine, no matter the language. It's one of the reasons to pick InDesign in the first place, actually. But the normal paragraph composer doesn't render complex scripts accurately.
    If you are stuck on CS2, then you could just export PDF from Word and place those PDFs in InDesign. It's not pretty, and it's not easy to use, but it works. I used to have a nasty kludge-y workaround when I had to avoid placed files that relied on saving EPS out of Acrobat in a very particular way that resulted in outlined fonts in Illustrator, that I could then copy and paste into InDesign. But really, if you need to handle Nepali more than once, then any upgrade to a contemporary version of ID that has the World-Ready Composer is completely worth it.

  • Is it possible to open, move and hide the Controls Palette programati​caly?

    I'm currently creating a tools to create and edit VI. And I would like to bring the tool palette programaticaly.
    regards,
    Nitrof

    Nitrof,
    The attached example program uses ActiveX to access the menus in LabVIEW and execute the menu selection based on keys sent to the program. Because this example program uses ActiveX it is only applicable on Windows Operating Systems. To access a menu in LabVIEW this program uses the SendKeys function and an ActiveX container with property nodes to execute the shortcut commands for menus programmatically.
    The Show Tools Palette menu item has "P" key associated with it ("P" is the underlined letter in the name). So, to open the tools palette programmatically, you would specify "SendKeys %wp" in the keys string in the attached VI.
    The Show Controls Palette item has no keys associated by default, so you would have to edit the run-time menu to assign
    this item a key. Use the Set Menu Item Info function (under Application Control>>Menu palette) to set the shortcut key for the Show Controls Palette item. Refer to the LabVIEW Help for more info on this function.

  • Effect Controls Palette - Docking

    Is there any way to open an existing project and have the exact window layout be the same as when you quit the project? IE, if I have multiple Effect Controls windows open when I quit a project, how do I have those same windows open when I open the project again?  Toolbars and UI panels keep their place, but not Effect Controls.
    I have a Null object that contains a handful of Expression Controls (sliders, checkbox controls).  I adjust these controls by using the Effect Controls palette when I have the Null object selected.  I know how to open multiple Effect Controls windows and even lock my Null object Effect Control window so that it is always open and I can adjust my controls without specifically selected my Null object layer.  The problem I run into is when I restart After Effects and open up my project, my Effects Control palette always resets to a single unlocked palette and I have to manually reset up my Effect Control windows (open multiple instances of Effect Control windows, lock my Null object Effect Controls window, etc).  If I save my workspace exactly how I want it, when I restart After Effects, the Effects Controls palette setup does not stick like it was before quitting/restarting.  For this specific project, I always want my Null object Effect Controls window/palette to be open and locked, but every time I restart, I lose my setup.  Any suggestions?

  • CS2 InDesign crash when exporting

    Hi,
    I've got a copy of CS2 InDesign at work that crashes when exporting a certain file to PDF.
    The files have limited information on each page except for placed PDF & JPG images. The images themselves seldom get above 300kb each, but there are lots - some times 5 per page in an 80 page document. It's a document to be printed so the images are as small as they can be.
    When exporting the document, ID crashes without warning - it just vanishes, no dialog box saying 'This application unexpectedly quit' or anything.
    Is this common? I have plenty of memory on the Mac, and no other applications or windows are open at the same time.
    Any suggestions as to why this happens?
    All text in the PDF images are outlined in Illustrator so presumably it's not a type recognition issue.
    Any suggestions welcome.
    cheers
    G

    Hi Bob,
    System spec is PowerPC G5, version 10.4.11. I'll have to ask our Mac expert
    if CS2 is fully patched.
    Cheers for your response.

  • Pasting CS2 photoshop images into CS2 Indesign

    On windows XP platform----How do I paste CS2 Photoshop images without pixels around image into CS2 InDesign? Thanks.

    First question:
    >How do I paste CS2 Photoshop images... into CS2 InDesign?
    Later:
    >How do I paste images from Photoshop CS2 into Illustrator CS2...?
    Later still:
    >How do I paste an image from Illustrtor CS2 to InDesign CS2...?
    So what's going on here?
    Start again. What programs are you using? Generally, you use File > Place to import files into InDesign or Illustrator. Copy/Paste are usually a recipe for bed news.

  • Remotely control the ITunes on Windows 7 64 bit PC with the new IPad

    With the latest version of ITunes for both Win7 and the new IPad, I'm only able to use the new IPad to remotely control the ITunes on Windows 7 64 bit PC through wired connection  ( ethernet cable ) to the wireless router. As soon as I connect my PC through wireless connection, the new IPad can not find my libraries.
    Is this a known issue or am I missing some settings?
    Thanks,

    Are you using the 64 bit installer?

  • Photoshop CS2 on Windows 7 - unable to boot up after installing

    Hi everyone, I really hope anyone can help me with this!!
    Ok, I've always used Imageready CS2 to open avi files to edit then save as animation GIF without affecting quality (which part of PS CS2 that I did pay for) on my old laptop with Windows XP in the past.
    Since then I've got a upgrade to PS CS5 (paid for) which I've installed successfully onto my new laptop with Windows 7 but till now, I'm dismayed to find that I'm unable to open avi files in PS CS5 just because I have 64 bit, not 32 bit even though I couldn't find the 32 bit program anywhere (apparently I found the 32 bit by searching in start up button but it still opens as 64 bit?).
    So I thought I'd try installing PS CS2 into Windows 7 using my CD and found that the activation part doesn't work anymore which leads me to finding that I could download a copy of PS CS2 without the activation bit (yes I did the uninstall before installing PS CS2 without activation) everything was great BUT...untill I tried booting up my laptop next time, it wouldn't start up properly at all, it would only manage it to that Boot Screen Animation then blackness with the cursor in the middle or rarely to the log on screen that doesn't work but thats it so I had to do a system restore to get it back in working order minus the PS CS2
    I thought it was the fault of other things I've downloaded at around same time like xvid decompressor codecs (so I could use VeeDub64) so I downloaded the codeces from different source and restarted to see if it boots up ok (it did) so I tried installing PS CS2 again but same thing happened on restart - failure to boot up and I had to do a few system restores (as some of the points didn't work ) before I barely got it back in working order yet again....
    I see that some people have PS CS2 that works perfectly on Windows 7 with 64 bit because they changed the file path when installing the program? Or was I supposed to have the 32 bit program somewhere although maybe I don't have it since my PS CS5 is not extended? Would either of those work? To be honest, I'm quite reluctant to try as I may end up killing my laptop this time around and it's only around 2 years old!!
    Any help would be MUCH appreciated!

    I'm happy to report that I've managed the resolve this issue of mine
    After a little discussion with customer support through online chat today, I was still advised to try the uninstall and install to see what happens.
    So I used the CC cleaner tool first, restarted then started by installing CS2 then CS5 using my serial numbers and made sure that I selected 32 and 64 bit programs to be installed
    Anxiously, I restarted my laptop to see if it would reboot okay and thankfully it did *relief!*
    Now I can open avi files using 32 bit of Photoshop CS5 without any problems (thank goodness!!)
    I think I probably didn't install the 32 bit program when I first bought the installation CD, since I thought I didn't need it but never knew it was still required for editing avi files!!
    Surprisingly, I still got to keep both versions of CS2 and CS5 this time around, as CS2 was simply replaced by CS5 when I first installed it two years ago....hmm.
    So thank you again gener7!

  • Install CS2 on Windows 7 32bit and 64bit, please help!

    I own a legitmate CS2 Creative Suite and my old Windows XP computer must be retired. Is there any way for a non-technical person like me to install CS2 on Windows 7 64bit? I saw some instructions but they seem geared to very computer knowledgable people and I got lost just reading them. Also, I saw new that CS2 was or is being offered fro FREE from Adobe? Is that true?
    OR, will CS2 as a 32bit application be more easily installed on Windows 7 32bit without any special install instructions?
    Thank to alll who can help this pathetically technically challenged person! I can NOT afford to upgrade CS2.

    Option 2 here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4715553 seems to work:
    Copy the installer to your local drive. Right click Setup.exe, Properties > Compatibility tab > Run this in compatibility mode. Choose XP SP2. Click OK. Run Setup.exe
    And yes, you can download and install them, see:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4976177
    There is still ongoing discussion whether anyone is entitled to install it, or only users with a valid license, but it seems Adobe does not care.
