  • Indesign CS5 crash during startup - problem with Graphics.rpln

    I work in an architectural company and already several of our computers have experienced this very rare and unusual behaviour. During start up of Indesign (not clicking on any file but just launching Indesign) it crashes with the following error:
    "Adobe Indesign CS5 has stopped working"
    We use Windows 7 64bit, so the first step I did - I went into Application Log which says, so appears to be a problem with Graphics.rpln.

    I have tried everything I could think of - removed and reinstalled Adobe CS5, manually removed Adobe folders under %Appdata%\Local and %Appdata%\Remote folders (why can't Adobe delete those things during uninstallation is always a total mystery), changed video adapter drivers, cleaned Temp folders, everything I knew...
    None of the other apps like Photoshop or Illustrator CS5 malfunction - only Indesign. What is going on?
    Can it conflict with other software we use? We have Bentley Microstation, 3D Max, Office 2010, Kaspersky Antivirus and LOGMEIN installed on this computer...Any clues, guys?

    Looks to me like you've never installed any of the patches. Last patch for CS5 was 7.0.4, so I'd start with that and see if ti helps.

    Hello Antonio;
    After many, many test I discovered that the problem, at least in my case it is caused by the new ACR 4.5. Please read the Thread that I post under Camera Raw. I include the link below.
    I also open two Bug Reports about this, but as usual Adobe (and other Software Companies) will never take responsability for this, until one day they release a new version with "enhancements".

    After updating to 10.7.3 are having problems with graphics (screenshot attached).

    What should be done that would solve the problem?

    Обновление до 10.7.4 проблему не решило.

    Overheating happens when I use heavy graphics applications. At the moment, MBP cold, but the problem occurred. But if the application is rolled up and open again, the artifacts disappear. The problem occurs 3 ... 5 times a day, which is very annoying. In 10.7.2 before updating to 10.7.3 had no problems.

  • Safari tab opening is very slow with graphic distortion

    When i open a new tab in safari, it takes quite sometime to open up, and when it does there is graphic distortion while showing the top sites. Sometimes safari hangs during the tab opening and might also crash. i recently brought the macbook, its been less than a month and this problem has been there since the beginning.
    when i checked out the bugs fixed in 10.6.2 this bug for graphic distortion was supposed to have been fix, looks like this that hasn't happened for me. my mac is up to date.

    Ok... try maintenance.
    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.
    Relalunch Safari. If the distortion is still visible, go to ~/Library/Safari and move the TopSites.plist file to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari. If the distortion remains, 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.

  • Problems with graphics card (GPU)

    I'm having problems with the graphics card (GPU) in my 2010 MB Pro leading to screen distortions.  It seems similar to the problems described here:   http://9to5mac.com/2014/10/28/apple-class-action-lawsuit-2011-macbook-pro-gpu-gr aphics-issues
    Unfortunately, my machine is not eligible under the class-action suit (and well out of warranty).   Is anyone else dealing with this and how did you fix it? 
    Thanks!
    - marc

    What was updated? Care to pastebin your pacman.log so we might actually know what went wrong? Also, in the future, naming a thread "update broke <package>" is not very helpful. Something like "OpenGL-dependant programs fail to run after updating <the package you think to be most relevant>" would be much more helpful and likely garner you many more people willing and able to help.
    All the best,

  • How can i downgrade to bootcamp 3.1? many problems with graphic driver of bootcamp 3.2

    How can i downgrade to bootcamp 3.1? I have many graghic problems with bootcamp 3.2. such as black screen and kernel resetting also fan almost permanent working and high temperature. all of them after installing bootcamp 3.2 on  my windows 7(64).

    I updated my graphic driver and the kernel resetting seems to be solved. but fan working is still unsolved.
    after installing bootcamp 3.2, whenever I open an Internet page with flash clips in there or watch even a low quality movie, fan start working hard. I updated flash player and other plugins but nothing happens.

  • Lenovo S205 & Windows 7 64bit. Problems with graphics, please help

    Hi, 
    I recently bought a Lenovo s205:
    AMD E-350
    It came with 1GB but I upgraded it to 4Gb RAM (1333 running at 1066)
    Windows 7 64 Ultimate.
    I have tried also Windows 7 32 (Professional, ultimate) and all versions give me the same problem, I will explain here:
    I have tried in AHCI mode and IDE mode from the bios and done fresh installs of Windows. Still the same.
    After installing all the drivers, I get randomly in different programs "black" or sometimes "white" menus. Whenever I set the cursor on the menu (White or black part), the letters start showing up.
    On Firefox for example, it happened where you write the address (Ex: www..) And when searching images too.
    I have tried the original drivers that the Lenovo's website has for the S205 and the latest from Ati/AMD and nothing solves the problem.
    What can this be? Faulty ram? Faulty OS? Problem with the graphic card drivers?
    Please help, it is so frustrating. 
    Thank you so much. 

    Thank you very much for your help. 
    I will try capturing some screenshots if that helps.
    I can discard the problem with the ram at the moment. I have tried a new set of ram (two 2gb modules = 4gb in total). The problem persists, even when they are tried individually. I also tried the original ram module the Lenovo came with (1module of 1gb), alone. Problem persists too.
    However, I do not have a problem trying the VGA output. Will this help too? As I do not have any screen with HDMI at the moment. 
    What I will do too, is to try a Windows 7 from another disc, a Home version 32 bit. I hope this can get the problem fixed.
    The main issue is that I bought this computer from Germany (From a store on eBay) and came with DOS. I will have to return it to the seller, I assume, if the rest fails to show any improvements.
    Thank you for your reply and any more suggestions are welcome.

  • Problem with playback distortion. Possible latency buffer issue?

    I have noticed a few other posts in the same vain as this but with no clear answers so here is my take on the problem:
    I am experiencing a distorted slowed down playback through logic pro 8 only occasionally which can only be fixed wit a full system restart. It sounds very much like a latency/buffer issue but to be honest I am not too great at fixing this myself. I have tried to change the buffer size to no avail. Recording seems to be fine mostly but it is just on playback. Although today i did experience the same sound issues when recording.
    I am using a brand new macbook 2.4 ghz with a behringer xenix 1622 mixing desk and a usb audio device. I have only just switched to a mac and have recorded before on my pc with the same desk and interface for over 2 years without a problem, so I am positive it is not the external hardware that is at fault.
    I am getting exactly the same problem when I use Garageband.
    Is it just the apple products which do this?
    Is this a common problem with an easy fix?
    I just dont know to be honest with you, i dont pretend to be an expert in the field, it is infuriating.
    Is there a problem with my machine? If so I can change it no problem.
    Please if anyone knows how I can sort this please let me know.
    I am gutted because I bought a mac thinking they were designed for music production, i dont want a pc again!
    Thanks.

    Can you be more specific on your usb device; Make & model... USB2? Visit the manufacturer's website, check compatibility & make sure you've got the latest driver. If you haven't already, run "Software Update" (under the Apple logo in the top left of your screen) & download the updates... this will take a while, so go & get yourself a coffee! Make sure you turn Airport off when you want to use Logic.
    If you're still having prob's check out this link;
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304970
    It's written for Logic 7, but most of it's in the same place.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers...

  • Satellite P100-387: Problems with graphics mode swithing on new nVidia

    *Looking for help!*
    _I have recently installed nVidia drivers from toshiba site (84.00) and since than my system has severe problems with changing graphical modes when starting applications in pre-determined mode (such as 800x600)._
    This problem affects my son mostly, as all older games are trying to run in 'Full screen mode' that fails to initialise properly.
    Also I have noticed that in dxdiag the option about DirecrDraw settings shows that it is completely not supported by my graphic card acceleration.
    Any ideas on how to resolve the problem desperately needed.
    Relevant nformation:
    Graphic card - nVidia GeForce GO 7600 driver: 6.14.0010.8400
    System Memory - 3MB
    O/S - Win XP Professional 5.1 build 2600
    ?:|

    Have you installed the latest BIOS?
    You could try reverting back to the original driver, it should be in C:\TOSAPINS. Or just Rollback the driver in Device Manager. Or revert back to a previous System Restore Point.

    I am working a freelace gig using a G5 computer with Lion.
    When using CS5 photoshop there seems to be a problem using

    I use the work around "key command" which is totally anoying.
    There is also a bug with the color picker/eydropper within the documents.
    I read that this has to do with the graphics card.
    Which graphics card do I need to resolve this issue?

    There are known issues/limitations with graphics cards in earlier machines.

  • Problem with graphic card

    Hello @CrazyWolf ,
    To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
    Even though this is a Commercial product, the Switchable Graphics feature allows you to switch between using the Intel graphics and a discrete graphics controller like AMD in a computer. For example, you can switch between the enhanced battery life of the Intel graphics while running on laptop battery power and the performance capabilities of the discrete graphics controller while the laptop is plugged into AC power. Your Notebook will automatically switch to the Intel graphics if the computer changes to battery power, or it can switch to the discrete graphics if the computer is plugged into AC power. Some computers use third party software to do the switch.
    I hope this help explain this.
    Thanks.

  • G62-b45em problem with graphic card

    First of all, my english is not so good, sorry about that.
    I'm using Windows 8.
    I have a problem with my graphic card, it just wont start. I mean the ATI Radeon, you can see here witch exactly.
    I downloaded the driver from this page, but I think it wont match. 
    Here is also a screenshot with the error that i found in Device Manager. If you need more information that i can provide to you just tell me.

    Hello Nocar.  I understand you're having some trouble getting your video driver to work properly in Windows 8.
    This error means that the device cannot start due to not having the proper driver.  I searched and there does not seem to be an official driver for this hardware.  However, a lot of users have reported success with installing the Windows 7 drivers in compatibility mode.  You should take a look at this thread which a colleague of mine posted.  It covers a possible fix for getting switchable graphics to work in Windows 8. 
    I hope the thread is helpful.  Let me know the result.  
    Have a great afternoon!

  • Problems with graphics after Boot Camp upgrade (from 3.1 to 3.2)

    Right, today I upgraded Boot Camp (the first time I used iTunes on Windows so thats way I never did the upgrade before) from 3.1 to 3.2 and after the installation my screen went blank/black. After restarting iMac it the screen appeared but in 1024x768 resolution and without working graphic drivers.
    I tried many different options to update the ATI HD 4850 driver, but none of them worked. It always says that there is some problem with it, but it also is up to date every time I try to update it manually for the drivers which comes with 10.12 Catalyst.
    I spend several hours trying to solve it, but I just can't and I really don't know what to do next.

    Right, I managed to fix it by updating the software manually, but selecting to choose from the list and I had to install the mobility drivers.
