Plug-ins not loaded?

Hi,
I'm a CC 2014 user on my Mac. But, we have a PC here in our department that has an old copy of CS4 InDesign on it. It doesn't really need anything newer than that, for the work that's done with it.
This PC just got a new hard drive. The old one crashed. So, actually, this new one is a solid state drive. So, it's nice and fast.
I've installed InDesign CS4 now twice. Whenever we open an ID document or template, we get a message saying that it can't open the file because plug-ins are missing. What can I do here?
Thanks.

You’re trying to open files created in a later version of InDesgin.

Adobe Acrobat Pro X - plug-ins not loaded

I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro for our company with multiple user licences. Once installed I noticed a lot of features which were in previous versions are not available. When I select the “Help” “About Adobe Plug-ins...” tab, almost all of the plug-ins are not loaded. Is this right and if not, how do I fix it. After reading numerous blogs I still do not have an answer – most refer to 3rd party plug-ins but not to this problem. NB: I am not an IT expert, but can help myself fairly well on software. Using Windows 7. Uninstalled Google Chrome as someone suggested it affects the plug-ins (which also did not solve the problem!)

It's working correctly.
The Help > About Adobe Plug-ins dialog shows the status of dynamic extensions which ship with Acrobat - not third-party plugins you may have installed yourself. These core extensions are loaded on demand, so if you don't have a document open, very few of them will be loaded. It's why the dialog bothers to tell you their status in the first place.
Third-party plugins need to be reinstalled if you upgrade to Acrobat X, as the installation folder is different. Some that were written for previous versions won't work with Acrobat X, especially if they're not designed to cope with the Tools Pane or Protected View in 10.1, but they will not appear on that dialog - they appear on the next menu item down, "About Third-Party Plug-ins".
The UI in Acrobat X is radically different from previous versions, but very few features are actually missing - what are you looking for that you can't find?

CS6 InDesign plug-ins not loading when launching

I just purchased CS6 Standard. when launching InDesign, the adobe plug-ins are not loading causing error messages. I have re-installed twice, but get the same error messages. At the end of several error messages, I get
'Cannot open resourse file." Can anyone help me?

I'm a little confused with what you write. There is a difference between extensions and Plug-ins. Plug-ins are installed using the plug-ins installer and extensions are installed by "Adobe Extension Manager (version)" where version is the Photoshop version and the extension package must be created for that particular Photoshop version. A CS5 package will not work in CS6 etc. Installed extensions will be listed in Photoshop under menu Windows>Extensions>List of them. Plug-in may install in the Filters menu or a place like menu File>Automate>Names. Installed Extensions that you installed should also show in the "Adobe Extension Manager (version)" window. Adobe installed extensions like Kuler and Mini Bridge do not show in the "Adobe Extension Manager (version)" window.

VST plug-ins not loaded at all Snow Leopard 10.6

Hi
I am using abelton live, and install waves 7 (does support snow leopard 10.6), and I don't see any recognition whatsoever for VST in premiere cs5
if I go inside the package of the application , i can see the plug-ins folder, but where is the "user" plug-ins folder.
on a Mac the folder is in /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST
this is not the location where premiere is looking to load the VST, in the splash screen you don't see it loading Waves plug-ins for example.
does anyone know why / how to truely enable VST on CS5 Mac?
thanks
Ami

Arri,
Usually, PrPro will survey most of the system, and load all VST's found. However, three things can happen:
1.) the VST is loaded and can be used by PrPro (not sure if this is the case with your particular VST)
2.) the VST is loaded, but PrPro cannot use it. There is most often a one-time message to this effect. The VST will NOT appear anywhere in PrPro.
3.) PrPro attempts to load the VST, but cannot. At this point, in later versions, a blacklist file is written, and each such VST will be added, when one launches. The launch will fail, until all such VST's are "blacklisted." When that blacklist has been completed, PrPro will launch fine, ignoring each of those problem VST's.
Just not sure about your particular VST. Does it say that it will work in PrPro? Not all will.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - seems that there are a couple of threads on Wave7.dll, but do not recall the specifics. I'd suggest a Search of this, and maybe the CS4 and Earlier fora, and some reading.

Adobe Plug-Ins not loading

Hello,
I'm having a problem with my computers loading all of the default Adobe Plug-Ins such as "Comments". I've used Adobe customization wizard 8.0 to package Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.1.2 and deploy it through Windows 2003 Group Policy. All of the computers have a previous version of Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.0 loaded on them. I've ran "Repair Acrobat Installation" and validated that the api files are in the plugin directory. The only domain change made was a group policy adm template file was created to disable "Java Script" in the Acrobat program because of malware. This applies to the users when they login and is located at "HKEY_Current_USER Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\8.0\JSPrefs". The weird thing is I've been able to deploy this package to some of my test machines and virtual machines and everything installs fine. The test machines are located in the same containers has my production machines. Any idea what could be causing this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry, I reported this wrong. I updated the package from 8.2 to 8.2.1 and then redeployed it. Do you think I should try rebuilding the packages starting from the first update to the last?

Plug ins not loading

I reinstalled elements 11 to a new drive and dragged the entire old plug ins folder to the new drive plugins folder, but no plugins are showing up in the editor.

Well, you probably made a mess. Many third-party plug-ins use external libraries and need to be installed properly just like the main program. In any case, we cannot know. You are not providing enough information.

Space Designer Plug-ins Not Loading

Hi, whenever I try to select a Space Designer plug-in with Logic Pro 8, I get a pop up which says 'no audio file selected' and asks me to 'please locate the file'. I've checked the Logic folder within the Application Support folder of the Library, and all the .pst files are there in the Plug-In Settings folder, but when I navigate to them from the pop up they are greyed out, making it impossible to select them manually anyway. All the other Plug-Ins (Compressor, Reverb, etc) seem to work fine. The problem only appears to exist with Space Designer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Phil

Hi, and thanks for the reply. I couldn't find the Impulse Response folder you mentioned, but just for information, the pop up prompts me to locate the file (for example) '01.4s Jazz Vocal Room.SDIR', and in the bottom pane of the pop up it says 'No Audio FIle Selected', probably because I haven't located and selected the file it's looking for.
Thanks again
Phil

Certain add ons/plug ins not loading. For example, in eBay, mouse over certain items and only blank dialog box pops up, no text within box. What could be causing this?

Appears to be flash or Acrobat issue???

Probably caused by the Google Toolbar extension. Disable it to verify it as the cause.

3rd Party Plug-ins not Found by Logic 9.1.7

I recently purchased two high quality plug-ins that are designed for Logic... they are both AU; one is the Eventide Blackhole reverb and the other Antares Mutator. I have a ton of other plug-ins that loaded perfectly in the past and are still present. BUT, for some reason, both of these installed successfully but Logic (running in 64-bit mode) skips right past the fact that they are in the Library/Audio/Plug-ins directory.
I am in the middle of doing remixes for a large band and really want to use these. Can anyone help???
Thanks,
Raven Lynch

Set Logic to open in 32-bit mode, then open a default empty project (not one you're working on) Logic should validate the plugins... after it's finished, close Logic, re-set to 64-bit mode and you should be ok.

Migrating PS CS3 to Intel with OS 10.5.6 Plug-ins Not Available

After migrating CS3 to MacBook Pro, 10.5.6, a list of unavailable plug-ins comes up. All except two were PS plug-ins, NOT aftermarket. Sure enough, they don't show up in the filters menu. I don't know where else they are missing. (migrated from Powerbook 10.4.11)
What is to be done?
CS3, OS 10.5.6/ MB Pro 2GB ram, 2.4 Ghz

Migrating is never a great idea, but migrating an application originally installed under Tiger on a PowerPC machine to a Mac-Intel box running Leopard goes beyond being a monumentally bad, horrendous idea. It's sheer lunacy!
You need to wipe out that drive, or at least use the Adobe Uninstaller (installed by CS3 in Applications/Utilities/Adobe/ on your old machine), look for, download and run the CS3Clean script, and then install the application from the original media.
Also, realize that any plug-ins that were not written in Universal Binary will NOT run under CS3 on the Mac-Intel machine,
unless you run CS3 under Rosetta software emulation with a corresponding
massive performance hit.
Never, ever try
"migrating" again. :(

PasswordServer Plug-in not loading

I've got an issue with a few machines and Open Directory. When the machines start up, they will not automatically show the OD Users list. They just show local accounts. We end having to put the machine to sleep and awaking it (sometimes several times) for the list to show up. I have logged into a local account to see what the problem is and it appears to be the PasswordServer Plug-in not loading. The console log below shows what happened when I did this. After I logged out of the local account, the list immediately showed up. The log shows that the PasswordServer Plug-in loaded at that point.
Is there any way of forcing the plug-in to load instead of it loading lazily? Or am I missing the real problem here?
Thanks for any assistance,
Cameron

I have resolved the issue by entering the LDAP Server directly instead of using LDAP from DHCP.
Guess I need to check the DHCP Server Settings... although I'm not sure then why most machines are working fine. The ones that weren't working are older G4 Powermacs (the oldest machines we have on the network)... if that has any bearing.
Just glad it's working.

I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

InDesign CS4 can open .indd, .indt and .inx files from earlier versions, but not from later. It should, however, be able to open .idml files saved or exported from newer versions, with the understanding that unsupported features will be lost, text will probably reflow due to differences in texts engines between versions, and that the greater the gap between versions the more likely there are to be noticeable differences from the original. You will need to be sure CS4 is at version 7.0.6 to read the .idml.

Plug ins not indicating presets/number

Wondering if anyone may know what may be causing the preset selection on plug-ins not to show anymore. I'm getting this (_ _ _), instead of what used to be preset 01, 02, or 03 etc..... .I'm thinking maybe I need more ram, or the battery on my mac is running low, but I'm not sure.

In response to your questions
1. I did not install them. They were installed by CS4. (I have the CS4 premium production suite for Mac)
2. Correct.-- the project that I opened shows the plugin. And the plug-in is fully operational. All the parameters work.
3. Correct--. the plug-ins are not found in the Effect menu, nor the Effects and Presets panel but they are in the Plug-un Folder (see below). This makes me wonder how many more plugins I have that I cannot get access to. I realize that all of the features in the PSClassic and PS LE Classic are probably in the Particle System II, but using the PS Classic was easy and straight forward compared to figuring out all of the parameters in Particle system to get similar results.
Notice the date on the plug-in in the attached picture (Created 6/22/09)
If you have CS3 or CS4 you probably have these plugins in your folder also. The last copyright on the book is 2004.

AU Manager insists on verifying all my plug-ins before loading every time, not just first load.

Why does the AU manager insist on verifying all my plug-ins each time it loads in Pro X ?
Really annoying and time consuming.

Quit Logic Pro X
Delete the Audio Unit cache
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
Type ~/Library/Caches in the "Go to the folder" field.
Press the Go button
Remove the "com.apple.audiounits.cache" file.
Restart your Mac
Launch LPX
It should do one more full rescan and then that should fix the issue...
If not then let us know please...

PLUG-INS not always loading - - Coupon Printer Manager plugin has crashed

''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/914197''
I am running Windows XP SP3 and all updates are current.
For weeks, running 7.0.1, 8.0.1 or 9.0.1, whenever I try to print coupons at the www.coupons.com website, I have difficulty and consistently I receive the following Firefox ERROR message...
"The Coupons Inc. Coupon Printer Manager plugin has crashed"
...and I always SUBMIT a REPORT to Mozilla.
This website is suppose to invoke the following plug-ins...
Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.1.3
Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.0.7
...and using Task Manager I watch to see if the Image column shows one or two plug-ins appear - of course, I don't know which ones - see below for additional info. Most of the time only one plug-in appears and then the website asks me to INSTALL the software (again). When two plug-ins appear (again, I do not know which), things run okay for the first coupon - however around 50% of the time I am unable to print a second, third, etc, coupon.
Regarding add-ons, I have the following:
PLUG-INS
Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.1.3
Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.0.7
Java Deployment Toolkit 6.0.300.12 6.0.300.12
Java Platform SE 6 U30 6.0.300.12
QuickTime Plug-in 7.7 7.7.0.0
Shockwave Flash 11.1.102.55
EXTENSIONS
Adblock Plus 2.0.3
Free Download Manager plugin 1.5.5
APPEARANCE
FOXSCAPE 4.01
Default 9.0.1 (disabled)
I have disabled each of these add-ons to see if anything improves, but nothing does. This does not surprise me since I have been running the same ADD-ONS for months and this problem has only started happening over the past few weeks.
I have uninstalled the Coupon Printer plug-ins, scrubbed my Registry, and then reinstalled them (with FF closed, as well as opened, of course), and that does not help either.
Sure would like to RESOLVE this FF problem.
I am wondering if there's a PLUGINS setting that needs tweaking, and on that note, I have tried setting...
dom.ipc.plugins.java.enabled
...to TRUE (where default is false) and that does not help either.
The following screen shot shows my about:config / plugin details > http://tinypic.com/r/10dv3v7/5
Hopefully, others have experienced the same problem and found a workaround or fix.
Thanks,
CurlySue :o)

Sorry, a resolution isn't going to easily or come from Mozilla.
4 out of 5 of those crashes were directly caused by the Coupons, Inc. Coupon Printer DLL = npMozCouponPrinter.dll
The developer of that plugin is going to have to fix it. Contact the Coupon website to find out how to report a bug with that plugin.
