Problem loading styles from CS2 to CS4

I just upgraded to InDesign CS4. When I open a file I created in CS2, none of the object styles I defined in that document are available. I tried to load the object styles from CS4 (pointing to the CS2 file that contains the styles), but it brings only 1 of about 15 styles across. In addition, the only style that comes across is now grayed out, so I can't apply it anyway. Has anyone else had this happen?
Thanks.
Brian

Personally,I don't think is a strange question, mainly because I will be in the same position soon. If I understand correctly, you are concerned that you wont be able to install CS4 64bit if you have to install CS2 first. Is that correct?
If so, I'm in the same boat. I assume that it will be possible as it is possible to run CS2 in 64bit mode.

  • Problem loading data from the PSA to the InfoCube

    Hello experts.
    I'm having a problem loading data from the PSA to the InfoCube.
    I'm using a DTP for this process but is happening the following error:
    "Diagnosis

    Does anyone have any idea what to do?
    Thank you.

    HI,
    Is it a flat file load or loading frm any data source?
    try to execute the program GP4KMDU7EAUOSBIZVE233WNLPIG 718 in Se38 and check if its active and no syntax errors are there.
    Check the mapping of the fileds in transformations weather
    some data fileds are mapped to decimal or char 32 filed is mapped to Raw 16
    or calweek, calmonth mapped to calday etc.
    Check in St22 if there any short dumps ..

  • Upgrading from CS2 to CS4

    I've upgraded from CS2 to CS4 on my WindowsXP, and my question is, can i now safely remove CS2 from my program roster without impacting any of my CS4 applications?

    If you're low on disk space, uninstalling CS2 will accomplish NOTHING. If you've reached this point, you need a new harrdrive.
    Working with a system drive with under 20% free space is a disaster waiting to happen.

  • Problem – loading HTMLtext from a text file

    Problem – loading HTMLtext from a text file
    Hi, I have a dynamic text set up to render text as HTML and I
    am loading the text into the text object by using the code below.
    var loadText:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
    loadText.load("Nyheter.txt");
    loadText.onLoad = function(success){
    if(success){
    Nyheter_txt.htmlText = this.VariabelTekst;
    The textfile looks like:
    VariabelTekst=<p align
    ="Right">(13.11.2006)</p><p><b><font
    size="12">This is the tittle</b></p><p>Here
    comes the text</p>
    It works almost fine but the first problem is that the
    paragraph text in the textfile should be written in Norwegian. This
    involves some Nordic characters. By default these characters are
    just shown as small square in the text control when running the
    flash file. If I try to enter these characters in the textbox
    “Include these characters” within the dialog for
    embedding, the text within the bold tag of the text file is not
    shown when the text is rendered. It looks as if it effect the HTML
    rendering of the text. The Nordic characters are still not showing
    but instead the small square placeholders for the characters are
    gone.
    Am I doing it wrong, or is there a work around for solving
    this problem?
    Any ideas?

  • Dictionary transfer from CS2 to CS4

    Hi, all.
    I've built up quite a specialized dictionary in CS2. Now, our company is going to CS4. Will my CS2 dictionary transfer over, and if so, how?
    I appreciate any help.
    Best wishes,

    Hi Michael,
    Honestly I don't know if the custom dictionary files changed format or anything from CS2 to CS4.  When you get CS4, try linking to it from Preferences > Dictionary.
    If you're saying though that you're not working with an auxiliary custom dictionary, and instead have added/removed words from your User Dictionary (the default one), then my best guess is you're going to lose those. So, don't uninstall CS2 yet ... boot the program, go to Edit > Spelling > Dictionary, and export the words you see in Added Words. (Maybe also in Removed and Ignored Words). There's an Export button there.
    Then when you install CS4, if the dictionary was overwritten, you could always go back to that Dictionary dialog box and click the Import button to bring the added words back in.

  • Can I upgrade from CS2 to CS4 and skip CS3?

    Can I upgrade from CS2 to CS4 and skip CS3? It would save me time.

    Colin,
    >But I did exactly what everyone on here said they did, went onto adobe.com to do our research, saw that the upgrade works from CS2-CS4
    Adobe shows there are multiple versions of the suites on their site and clearly points the way for purchasing at the Adobe Store. Just for the heck of it, I also went to MacMall.com and MacConnection.com, two well-known online resellers. I checked their Adobe CS4 upgrades, and they clearly indicate which older versions they are meant to go with. Not quite so clear from MacZone.com and a few other reseller sites I visited.
    >I am an IT person for a printing company, and as such I spent hours upon hours preparing for this transition.
    It took me just a few minutes to find the correct version I needed.
    >no one can tell the difference, and most vendors don't know it exists. We could help you, but you didn't buy it from us."
    Maybe the reseller you bought from is just sloppy and didn't mark the SKUs properly. But how is this Adobe's fault -- particularly when other vendors can and DO get it right?
    Also as both Mac and Win upgrades are pretty much determined and marketed the same way, what does this sloppiness have to do with Mac market share?
    But that said, there is enough good information on the Adobe site that should trigger some questions if you as the IT guy have any doubts and are responsible for buying for your company. At the least, doesn't it make sense to call Adobe and ask which SKUs you should buy? It could've saved hours of research time.
    If you truly did your research and purchasing carefully and were still fooled, I suggest you start with a complaint to the reseller who sold you the goods.

  • Use Preferences from CS2 in CS4?

    I have deleted CS2 and installed CS4.
    How can I use my preferences from CS2?  I hate the thought of trying to reconstruct my actions, function keys, menu colors, etc.

    First of all, regrettably there is no adobe warning other than here and in various obscure Tech notes about the advisability of saving the panoply of brushes, actions, plug-ins and preferences that many users accumulate during their use of Photoshop. It seems you have to learn by bitter experience.
    Third party plug-ins should always be kept in a separate folder, identified in preferences. Actions and brushes should be saved in sets and backed up along with any styles, presets, and such like.
    The whole folder containing a "good"set of preferences should also be backed up.
    All this makes life easier if you have to re-install or, as in your case, upgrade.  The only help adobe gives is a warning during the uninstall process about shared files.
    Regarding your questions, if you saved any of the above, they may be still on disk or on your image backup, and can be loaded into the new version. However I am pretty sure most of the preferences (psp files) will not be applicable to CS4 anyway.
    Re-installing CS2 will obviously not bring back your personal items (although you will need the disk for the upgrade).
    Rebuilding preferences from the edit menu in a new version only takes a few minutes and is essential in CS4 owing to the many changes. Also, even if you manage to locate and reload the other things mentioned, be prepared to find a lot won't work.
    Sorry for the long answer – I hope some of it helps!

  • New hard drive, reinstall upgrade from CS2 to CS4 Question

    Hi,
    I upgraded my CS2 to CS4 Extended early this year, my hard drive just bit the dust and I have to re-install the CS4, will I have to call customer service again to get my copy of CS4 Extended activated, again?
    Thanks, Charles Grubbs / futurexboy

    Like you, I've completely recovered from a hard drive failure - one of two in a RAID 0 arrangement in my case.  Windows Backup restored it completely, likewise without re-registration, etc.  A key difference is Windows Backup runs for me late at night, in a set-it-and-forget-it fashion (my computers stay on 24/7).  I don't have to boot up a separate system to run it.
    But I don't doubt Image is a good product.
    It's good to have good alternatives to choose from.

  • Problem loading Applets from Jar files on 64 bit machine

    I am developing an applet (extends Applet but uses swing components) using JDK 1.6 (Though these problems still happen in JDK 1.7) and I am unable to get the applet to load on a 64 bit machine in most cases. The web server(s) are running on localhost and I am connecting on the same machine using a local network ip address (such as 192.168.*.*)
    Below are all of my test results. Can someone provide a suggestion for repairing this? The Windows Server machine is a clients computer I access to it via remote desktop but I can't do much with it though I do have administrator rights. The Windows 7 machine is my development platform so I have been able to do extensive testing on it.
    This problem is presenting in the following environments when trying to load an applet from JAR files in a HTML document using the Applet or Object tag.
    Windows Server 2008 (Intel Chipset)
    Tested Browsers:
    Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) - Shows it is blocked by default then simply shows an x when loaded from a web page, same result when loading from local drive.
    Windows 7 Home Premium (AMD Chipset)
    Tested Browsers:
    Firefox 6.0.1 (32 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner, after a few minutes there is finally an error that a class in the jar was not found
    Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner, after a few minutes there is finally an error that a class in the jar was not found
    Internet Explorer 9 (64 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner and most of the windows desktop manager freezes, keyboard is the only thing that responds so you can alt-tab to another app to regain control of the desktop.
    Chrome (32 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner, after a few minutes there is finally an error that a class in the jar was not found
    The only way I have been able to get a Java applet to run on a 64 bit machine are the following ways.
    Firefox 9 nightly (64 bit) works perfectly! Go Firefox!
    Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) loading directly from drive (c:\...)
    Chrome (32 bit) loading directly from drive (c:\...)
    Firefox 6.0.1 (32 bit) loading directly from drive (c:\....)
    Can someone please help! I've been fighting with this bug for over a week and I can't find anything that will solve it, I have noticed that in some cases if my jar has very little code in it than it will run on the server, but the minute I start adding things to it the jar won't load anymore.

    To clarify...
    1. You have tried it on 32 bit machine? Exactly which OS?I tested this on Windows Vista Business which is in 32 bit mode and the applets run without any problems
    >
    2. Your only 64 bit tests have involved 2008/Win7?
    If so then I would suspect something with windows not java. Probably permissions.
    The web server(s) are running on localhost and I am connecting on the same machine using a local network ip address (such as 192.168.*.*)
    Yes, I haven't tried running the jars on other operating systems.
    >
    I don't understand that. If you are running on localhost then you should connect to localhost. If running on an IP then you should connect to that. Perhaps you meant that you have tested using both of those?I'm testing using the lan ip address but I'm connecting from the same machine. I've tried localhost and that didn't work so I tried lan ip since that will likely have a different java security context than localhost. At first I was blaming the IIS server but I downloaded the jar directly and using HTTP fox was able to verify that the jar is being sent with the correct mime-type and that the server can upload the jar file without a problem. This leaves me to believe the problem is with Java.

  • Upgrade install problem Photoshop CS5 from CS2, MacOS 10.6.8

    Hello,
    My wife was using Adobe Photoshop CS2 for a long time.  We purchased a Photoshop CS5 upgrade in 2010 through Amazon, but she never installed it after reading about problems other people had with the upgrade.  It was still in its shrink wrap seal until last night.
    Then she recently went to upgrade her Mac laptop to 10.9 Mavericks from 10.6 Snow Leopard, and discovered that Photoshop CS2 will no longer work since CS2 was a PowerPC application.  No problem - we thought we'd just finally install that CS5 upgrade first.  The Amazon web page where we bought the product stated that this was a valid upgrade path, so we thought we would not have a problem.  However, when we went to do the install, we received an "Inconsistency in the installer database" error.
    Going to the support live chat, we were told by Yaseer that we could no longer upgrade from CS2 to CS5 because the CS2 "server" was shut down, and we should go to the forums for help with this instead.
    Now what?  We own a legal copy of PS CS2, and bought a legal upgrade copy of PS CS5 with the understanding that this was a legal upgrade path, purchased from a reputable dealer (Amazon), but now it doesn't work.  There must be something that can be done here.
    I'm not using my wife's Adobe id which she used to register her product, but I can provide that id as well as the serial numbers for CS2 and the CS5 upgrade.

    run the cleaner, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    restart your computer
    then try to install cs5.
    if you're prompted for a cs2 serial number and your cs2 number fails, use the one linked from this page:  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l

  • Problem loading images from a return value of a function

    hello, I write because I uin problem in loading images from a return value of a function.
    I created a database with a field "image" of type string, where I put the physical address of the image. I have written like this: {__DIR__ }foto.jpg
    Place the code, so you understand better
    function imageViewImage(): javafx.scene.image.Image {
    connetti();
    lass.forName(driverName);
    con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,"");
    stmt = con.createStatement();
    var richiesta:String = "SELECT image from viaggio WHERE id_viaggio=7";
    rs1 = stmt.executeQuery(richiesta);
    var result :String;
    rs1.next();
    risultato = rs1.getString("image");
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, result);
    var imagez = Image{
    url:"{result}";
    return imagez;
    The image is in the source code package
    First I connect to the database, run the query and I take the contents of the image.
    Can anyone help me?
    Is right to put in the database {__DIR__} foto.jpg or do I put only foto.jpg?

    Hello unkus_nob,
    I would rather suggest you to save only filename of that image like "foto.jpg" in database. And just concat it with the String variable containing "{__DIR__}".
    Actually the javafx compiler converts the {__DIR__} to the existing class directory path something like : "jar:file:/..../".
    var currentDir ="{__DIR__}";
    risultato = "{currentDir}{rs1.getString("immagine"})"; 
    var image = Image{
        url:risultato
    return image;--NARAYAN G.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

  • Problem loading image from jar file referenced by jar file

    First, I searched this one and no, I didn't find an answer. Loading images from jar files has been pretty much done to death but my problem is different. Please read on.
    I have my application, a straight up executable running from Eclipse. It uses a jar file, call it JarA. JarA launches a GUI that is located in another jar file. Call it JarB. To recap:
    My application calls JarA -> JarA loads classes from JarB -> JarB looks for images to place in a GUI it wants to show on the screen
    When JarB goes to load an image the following happens:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
         at sun.misc.URLClassPath$3.run(URLClassPath.java:316)
         at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
         at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:313)
         at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:290)
         at sun.misc.URLClassPath.findResource(URLClassPath.java:141)
         at java.net.URLClassLoader$2.run(URLClassLoader.java:362)

         at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.<init>(MainWin.java:135)
    The code from JarB that loads the image looks like this:
              URL[] oSearch = {Main.class.getResource("images/")};
              URLClassLoader oLoader = new URLClassLoader(oSearch);
              imgIcon = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("icon.gif"));
              imgMatchRunning = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears.gif"));
              imgMatchStill = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears-still.gif"));
              imgMagnify = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("magnify.gif"));This looks right to me and JarB certainly has an images directory with those files. But I'm in hell right now because I don't know where to place the images to make this work or if you can even attempt to load images with a dependency chain like this.
    Any help very appreciated!

    Have you tried to move your image-files out of the jar file and place them in the sam folder as the jar-file? I think that would help.
    When you try to load the image-file you get the NullPointerException because the program tries to read a file it can't find. Remember that a jar file IS a file and not a directory.
    If you want to read somthing inside the jar-file you need to encode it first.
    Have you tried to read the jar-file with winRar. It makes it easy to add and remove files in your jar-file.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Assuming that your applet is not in a jar file (don't see a value for archive)
    you have a file callsed ProcessStatus.class in a folder WEB-INF\classes relative to
    the location of the jsp file.
    So if the jsp file is in
    myJSPFileFolder
    the class should be in:
    myJSPFileFolder\WEB-INF\classes
    If you want to see when the jre is trying to load and where it it trying to load it from you
    can inspect a full trace, to turn the full trace on (windows) you can start the java console, to be found here:
    C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4...\bin\jpicpl32.exe
    In the advanced tab you can fill in something for runtime parameters fill in this:
    -Djavaplugin.trace=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option=basic|net|security|ext|liveconnect
    if you cannot start the java console check here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\userName\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties
    I think for linux this is somewhere in youruserdir/java (hidden directory)
    add or change the following line:
    javaplugin.jre.params=-Djavaplugin.trace\=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option\=basic|net|security|ext|liveconnect
    for 1.5:
    deployment.javapi.jre.1.5.0.args=-Djavaplugin.trace\=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option\=basic|net|security|ext|liveconnect
    The trace is here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\your user\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\log\plugin...log
    I think for linux this is somewhere in youruserdir/java (hidden directory)
    The trace should show something like :
