Opening two sessions of Indesign

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to open two sessions of InDesign CS at the same time. Working with dual monitors. Thanks.

I know that is possible and am using that as an alternative at the moment, but in some cases would be easier to just open two sessions the way you can with Excel. Thanks for your assistance.

I have 2 copies of Firefox open (two different windows with lots of tabs), if I reboot can I restore both sessions?

I have 2 copies of Firefox open (two different windows with lots of tabs), if I reboot can I restore both sessions? I am familiar with clicking history/ restore previous session, but don't want to reboot to let windows update to do it's thing unless I can restore both sessions.

If they are running different profiles, then yes.

Firefox just updated to 5.0.1 when it opens it opens two tabs, one a restore session tab and the other Firefox home tab. Nothing appears in the restore tab and everything freezes. Only way to get out is to ctrl, alt, del.

After updating to Firefox 5.0.1 and trying to open Firefox, it opens two tabs. One is the restore session tab and the other is the Firefox home tab. Nothing opens in the session restore tab and once the Firefox home tab loads the browser screen freezes with no crash ID's listed. The only way to get out is thru the task manager and ending the process. Firefox worked fine before updating.

Hi glivezey,
Try typing ''about:home'' into the address bar. Is that the page you are looking for? If so, go to ''Tools > Options > General'' and save it as your homepage. If that home page doesn't show up the next time you start Firefox, you should look at [[Preferences are not saved]].
Hopefully this helps!

You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CS4" because it is not supported on this architecture"

A day or two ago I went through installing Adobe InDesign CS4 on Leopard OS X.5.8. After what appears to be a successful installati
on, in launching InDesign CS4 the message " You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CS4" because it is not supported on this
architecture" comes up". Calling in to support and speaking with the agent who read through previous posts, suggested to me that I
should try the same fix that has been suggested when I ran across an error when installing Adobe InDesign CS4 on another separate ha
rd drive externally connected to this computer running Snow Leopard OS X.6.1 for the error reading: "Damaged &/or incomplete install
ation" when launching afterwards. The support technician told me to first delete with the uninstall Adobe InDesign CS4, InDesign.
Following this I am told to run the CS4 Cleanup Utility. I restart the computer each and every time after running each of the utili
ties. Now I am told to install InDesign as a trial version from the DVD and after installation to go ahead & enter the serial numbe
r. When launching InDesign CS4 after installation got back the same error as before: "You can't open the application "Adobe InDesig
n CS4" because it is not supported on this architecture" comes up". Followed KB404711 article and no success. What else can be don
e to fix this issue?
This morning contacted Adobe Support regarding this response:
After having a detailed reserach on your issue i acme to the conclusion
that the problem you are having is not related to Adobe software but its
in fact related to your MAC version ( OSX-5.8). While reseraching your
issue i came across
to many forums where a lot of postings were about the similar error but
with different products the only comon thing was all the Errors were
with Mac machine , also when you check the system requirements for
Adobe Indesign Cs4
by going to the following link
http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/systemreqs/?promoid=DRHXE you
will find the Mac OS version supported are from Mac OS X
v10.4.11–10.5.4. but we do support Snow Leoprad , so i would like
to advise to you to either contact your system manufacturer or upgrade
to Snow Leopard ( mac os x 10.6)
I have been told that my case is being sent to Level 2 agents and that it can take 24-48 hours for a response. In the meantime I decided to see what the Support Forums can do for me. Until then I am down. Thanks for the help.

In the application folder there is a folder 'Adobe InDesign CS4' within which there is just the application file. I would expect there should be more file there??
I've un-installed and installed again - still the same.
Even downloaded the dmg again and done thwe whole thing over again.

Iget this when I try to open a session....Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.task mngr shows no open firefox processes.

I then downloaded the newest version, installed it and I still get the error message as before. HELP!!!! I loved the browser program when it was working before and would rather use it than other browsers.

How to open multiple sessions for one user?

Sorry for the silly question but I couldn't find it googling or searching through this forum, so I started wondering whether it's possible in SQL Developer to open multiple sessions for one user. I'm fairly new to SQL Developer and databases in general.
When I open SQL Developer and connect to a schema, a worksheet opens named MYSCHEMA. If I disconnect then connect, another worksheet opens, named MYSCHEMA~1. I assumed these were different sessions, but if I enter into one worksheet:
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1
-- shows result is 1
update my_table set col1 = 0 where row_id = 1
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1
-- shows result is 0and then enter into the second worksheet:
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1
-- shows result is 0I would have expected the second worksheet to report 1 because the first worksheet did not issue a COMMIT. Thus, I'd guess both worksheets are the same session? Is that right? If so, how do I have two sessions open simultaneously (opened by same user)?
I'm trying to implement the code at the bottom of this post, for which testing requires at least two sessions:

Thanks Jim,
Ctrl-Shift-N doesn't do anything for me. I'm on a mac -- by experimenting it looks like command-N does what you're looking for. This appears to be the same as left-clicking on the "New" icon in the top left corner of SQL Developer, or selecting from the pull-down menu, File > New.
This opens "Create a New" window that appears to be a wizard. What would I select at this point? Options are: Database Connection, Table, View, Package, ...
I don't see an option for "Worksheet".
UPDATE:
OK, I found that if I select "SQL File", a worksheet becomes available. Perhaps this is what you intended. However, when I issue the command
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1;it still returns 0 instead of 1. Hmm, maybe my initial assumption was wrong -- if this is a second (e.g. different) session, should I expect the changes made in the first session in SQL Developer (the UPDATE command) WITHOUT a commit, to be observed in this second session? I thought that changes made in one session were not viewable in a different session until these changes are committed in the first session? If so, how to show this in SQL Developer? I must be missing something basic here.
Or, is SQL Developer issuing some sort of "auto-commit" without my knowledge?

We all can learn from this. Whenever you get stuck in a customer-service situation that goes nowhere, as soon as you become aware of the futility, get the name and employee ID of the person, then say, "I don't mean to be rude, I think we're both wasting our time. Perhaps you weren't trained for this issue, or perhaps your system isn't displaying the correct information. It doesn't matter, because I'm not getting proper customer support this way. Please ESCALATE this to your highest-level manager IMMEDIATELY. If that person isn't availabe, ESCALATE me to that person's highest-level manager. If you haven't been given the proper training, you can use this to inform your manager that you need the training. Thanks for trying to help. I appreciate it. I have copied and saved this chat session. NOW PLEASE ESCALATE THIS CASE AS I HAVE REQUESTED ABOVE. I'm waiting now... "
The point is that you're a customer, and the company needs customers, so the individual who's failing to deliver good service needs to be identified so they can be properly trained, and so that problems in the system can also be identified, but more important is that you get the service you're entitled to.
If you search the forum for similar questions, you'll see the kind of information that the volunteer users like yourself on the forum need to know about your system and files involved, so they can help you better.
Good luck.

Cannot open .p65 files in InDesign

When I try to open .p65 files I ge the error "Cannot open file "...". Adobe Indesign may not support the fle format, a plugun that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application." I had no problem opening .p65 files on my other desktop. It simply opened, and converted them automatically. Please help. Thanks.

I tested two p.65 files (one created on a Mac, another on a Windows machine) and one .pmd file (created on Windows PageMaker 7):
all three opened without problems in InDesign CS3
none opened in InDesign CC (same error message you mentioned)
Unfortunately, I had recently uninstalled the ID CS6 version from my system; otherwise, I could've tested which behavior occurred in the previous version.

Only in a admin session works InDesign and Illustrator!

When I open some products (Indesgin for example) in a session without admin permission, it doesn't work. All is well y I open the software in a admin session but I don't like to use admin session normally, only for instalations.
It's not so safe to work continously in an admin session, and I don't want to do it.
Could you help me?

Adobe InDesign downloaded from Adobe Creative Cloud, It´s supposed last

Whether two session with for update at the same time will wait for another?

Will this scenario happen?
One session executes: select ... for update/select ... for update nowait
The other session also executes: select ... for update/select ... for update nowait
Two sessions happens at the same time unluckily. Whether they will all stand by because of "for update" or quit immediately because of "nowait"?
Thx a lot.

No, it's not.
A deadlock is when sesson-A has a lock on something that session-B needs in order to continue, and at the same time, session-B has a lock on something that Session-A needs in order to continue. They BOTH have something the other needs.
In the OP's case, at least as he described it, it is simple serialization. The one with the lower scn will go, then the next.
PS.
Why don't you try? You can setup a small table with some records, open 2 sessions to the same database and for example issue UPDATE statements:
session 1: update where id=1
session 2: update where id=2
session 1: update where id=2 - this will hang waiting for session 2 to commit and free lock
session 2: update where id=1 - ORA-00060
You may also read about deadlocks in chapter on "Data Concurency and Consistency" of "Oracle Concepts'.

Why does FF open two windows when I open it? Why can't I close the second window without closing FF altogether?

After FF automatically updated it started opening two windows whenever I start FF. One window has the open tabs from my previous session and the other window has only the FF home page open in one tab, nothing else. I can't close either window without shutting FF down altogether. I have limited RAM (3GB), running Mac Lion, which eats up a lot of resources and now FF eats up the rest. It's a real pain in the ass.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Open VISA sessions (including duplicates)

I would like to obtain a list of open visa sessions. I found this knowledge base article which should work, however when opening duplicate sessions (e.g. "COM6 (1)") the list contains empty entries or multiple COM1 references.
Please try the attached vi to see the effect; on my system the visa resource name control shows COM1 & COM2 (default system ports), COM6 & COM12 (2 USB-serial converters) and LPT1 (system parallel port) at start up.
This is shown after opening "COM6" (3x) > opening "COM12" (4x) > opening "COM1" (1x) > closing "COM12" and "COM12 (1)"
Maybe there is a way to read the contents of the drop down menu of the VISA resource control which contains all the information and is also updated automatically.
Any help is greatly appreciated, regards W@Work
Note: I'm using LabVIEW 2009 (32-bit) on Windows XP

open visa sessions.vi ‏28 KB

Thank you very much for your response,
First I'll explain the duplication: the "VISA open" VI allows for opening a duplicate session (which refers to the same port). I want to use this so I can have a separate session for writing and reading which can be locked and unlocked separately. The example I attached to my original post opens duplicate sessions when you (try to) open the same port ("COM1" for example) multiple times.
Could you please try the example again selecting "COM1" as "VISA resource name", then click "Open" two times. Now you should see "COM1" and "COM1 (1)" in both lists. On my system clicking "Close" (while "COM1" is still selected) removes "COM1 (1)" from the "open sessions found" list while it should remove "COM1".
MAX lists ports 1, 2, 6 & 12 that I mentioned in my original post. When running the example this list does not change (no "COM1 (1)" for example) so I think this is just a list of physical ports, not the open VISA sessions.
I think you forgot to attach the image but I guess this is the printscreen you're asking for:

Can you ping the SERVERNAME from the machine you are trying to add the RemoteApp host from? You may have to enable the rule "File and Print Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)" on the inbound firewall on the server you are pinging. Does the name

I received that error when I had an issue with the network.

Mail opens two Safari windows when I click on a link in email

When I click on a link in Mail, it opens in Safari -- that's the way I have it setup. Yet, the problem is that it opens two windows in Safari, one empty and one with the content of the link.
This is the second problem I have with Mail. The second one was posted to this discussion but it was not resolved. I repeat here the text of the problem:
I've been having a problem with mail for a while, when sending attached JPEGs from my Mac using Mail or Entourage. The photos are split -- say a 140 kb file will show up in my two other computers (both Windows PCs) as two files, one 65 kb and the other 75 kb, for example.
Yet, when I click on Mail's (in my Mac) sent folder and click on the particular sent email, it shows a full blown 140 kb attachment, not split.
Several weeks ago, my Mac Address book got cranky and for some reason it would repeat the name of an addressee. I finally deleted the name of that addressee and created a new entry and it seemed to work, so it did not split JPEGs -- or at least I thought that was the case.
Now it is back splitting the JPEGs but this time, the addressee's name is well formatted -- no repeats within the entries in the card in Address Book.
When I mail something from my Windows PCs and open it in my Mac, the file is complete.
What could be causing this split?
