Problems opening my indd files

I have been working with Indesing in several days and now suddently I can't open the file I have used? A message says tht I shal
controle the fileallianses. But what is that?

Yes, I'm using Windows. I just tried opening the file in Bridge and I got the same lack of options as without it.
However I did find a work around thanks you your comment about opening the program first. While Indesign CC 2014 seems to replace Indesign CC I can install both the 32 bit version of Indesign and the 64 bit version, this way I can have the 64 bit version as rev 10.2 and the 32 bit version as rev. 9.2. I can now open the 9.2 version and open the file from it without uninstalling the CC 2014 version.
Thanks everybody.

Failed to open a .indd file

Hi, everyone
I have a problem with some .indd files, these files are on a NAS server. My problem that i can't some files with Indesign CS6. I have an error message that the file is used by another user, but there is no one except me using this file.
Those file was created with indesign CS3. The weird thing, there is file that work and other doesn't work.
SO if anyone can help to resolve this problem, it very urgent and important ?
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Je réponds en français, car j'imagine que ce sera plus simple…
J'ai téléchargé les 2 fichiers, et comme tout le monde, j'ai essayé de les ouvrir. Impossible, que ce soit avec CS4, CS5.5, CS6 et CC. Toujours le même message.
J'ai essayé de l'exporter en idml avant de l'ouvrir avec le script // blindOpen_and_IDML-Export, sans succès. En dernier recours, j'ai essayé d'importer ce fichier dans un autre doc InDesign. Ça n'a pas fonctionné, mais j'ai noté une chose étrange : en affichant les options d'importation en l'important, la boîte de dialogue qui est apparue est celle que l'on obtient habituellement en important un fichier .txt
Je suis bien incapable d'expliquer pourquoi ce fichier est considéré comme étant un fichier texte, mais c'est pourtant ce qui se passe.

Hi George ,
Is it happening with all the PDF' or any specific one?
Could you please share the error message so that we can replicate at our end ?
Try repairing reader once and see if that fixes the issue.

Lightroom 1.4 - problem opening up NEF files

Hi there,
I've been having problems opening up NEF files in Lightroom 1.4, a message keeps coming up saying that the file is not recognised. I'm using a MacBook Pro and can't get a solution - can someone please advise on the best course of action?
Thanks!

>a Nikon D3
I don't think that one is supported in LR 1.4. The camera was released after LR 1.4 was released. To get support for that camera, either upgrade to LR 2 or convert the NEF files to dng using the free DNG converter that you can download from http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/

How to open an .indd file in commands

does any one know how to open an .indd file in commands from a plugin(without opening from the normal procedure..File -> Open ...)
in my plugin I tried,
SDKFileOpenChooser fileChooser;
fileChooser.AddAllFiles();
fileChooser.ShowDialog();
     It shows the dialog window to choose a file. but i don't know what to use that file to be apperead in Indesign application.
If you have any idea please let me know..

Here's a sample function I use:
// Create an OpenDocCmd:
        InterfacePtr<ICommand> openDocCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(/*kOpenDocCmdBoss*/ kOpenFileCmdBoss));
        if (openDocCmd == nil)
            break;
        // Get an IOpenFileCmdData Interface for the OpenDocCmd:
        InterfacePtr<IOpenFileCmdData> openFileData(openDocCmd, IID_IOPENFILECMDDATA);
        if (openFileData == nil)
            break;
        // Set the IOpenFileCmdData Interface’s data:
        openFileData->Set(docSpec, uiFlags, openFlags ,IOpenFileCmdData::kNotUseLockFile);
        // Process the OpenDocCmd:
        error = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(openDocCmd);
        if (error)
            break;
// Create a layout window for the new doc:
        InterfacePtr<ICommand> newWinCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kOpenLayoutCmdBoss));
        newWinCmd->SetItemList(UIDList(*openDocCmd->GetItemList()));
        error = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(newWinCmd);
Make sure of error checks!

How do I open an .indd file on a windows 8 OS?

how do I open an .indd file on a windows 8 OS?

You would need to purchase and install Adobe InDesign.

I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT Now I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT Now I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

See this faq:
FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
That will explain why each new camera model uses its own raw format. (.CR2 does not indicate a format, only a Canon family of formats).
The first link tells you what version of camera raw is needed for your camera : https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
You need ACR 7.4
The second link tells you which ACR versions are supported by Elements versions Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
PSE9 supports version 6.5
Further down on that paper, you get links to download the free Adobe DNGconverter for Mac or Win.
This standalone software can batch convert a whole folder of raw files to the DNG raw file format that your present PSE9 can read.
Otherwise, you would have to upgrade to version 10 or later.

Problem with opening a indd file in CC 2014.

When I'm trying to open a 5.5 .indd-file in CC 2014 on my Windows computer, I get this error message: 'Either the file does not exist or you do not have permission to open it or the file is used by another program'. However my collague has no problem with opening the document on his Mac computer. I guess it has something to do with a kind of setting in my CC 2014. Can anyone help me?

Nothing to do with ID. It really means what it says - your file permissions are hosed and it being an ID file this could include things like fonts or placed images referenced within it.

Incopy crashes when opening large Indd-files

We are publishers of a magazine. One layouter on Indesign, and two writers on Incopy. What happens frequently is, that after a while, when the Indd-file becomes fairly big, Incopy stalls on opening the file. Sometimes it opens it in text-mode, but we can't switch to layout-mode. But mostly we don't even come that far. Right now, we are unable to open the file at all under Incopy. We have NO idea how to troubleshoot this, and it's seems independent of size, because we can open other large files. But it regularly happens with our magazine, once the file gets filled with graphics. Is there a log-file that would give us a clue what is happening?

We are having a similar issue. We have 230 some links in inDesign. When our editor opens the file in incopy it spins and then crashes if we wait long enough. We did get a crash report.
We checked and recreated all the links however incopy still fails to open. File still works fine in indesign. We to have been unable to isolate the source of the problem.

How to open Indesign indd file?

Hi,
I have a problem with opening .indd file writes me an error:
Cannot open the file book.INDD. Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application.
Can you help?
Yesterday I saved the file, and today when I went to open it so I can not do it.
I have InDesign CS6 / Windows 8.1.
Please help me.

I tried open as a copy (copy = move original file to another folder) but still same error.
Also i tried INDDRecovery but here is error: Bad file signature, file incorrect.
I cant open in the Notepad because when i try notepad error: file is too large for Notepad.

InDesign crashes every time you double click to open an .indd file on Windows system

InDesign crashes every single time you double click to open an InDesign file and has done so since replacement of the original version of InDesign introduced in the Creative Cloud launch. Does anyone else have this problem? I'd say it was unique to my system if I hadn't experienced the issue repeatedly on several different systems now. You have to relaunch InDesign which then opens the file from recovery, so it saw the file you tried to launch in the first place. This leads me to believe the problem lies with the file association registry of InDesign inside Windows systems. I find it unbelievable that this problem still exists and remains unreported and that a solution hasn't been implemented by Adobe to rectify the issue.
The double click is a fundamental tenant of opening files on a Windows system in the same way a single click is on a Mac. Does InDesign crash ever time a Mac user clicks to open their files, I think not.
Anyone got any ideas other than the obvious which is Adobe actually got their figure out and fixed it.
Cheers,
Pat Doyle

Hi Michael,
I'll give it a go. Don't really like messing with the registry on Windows boxes. Yes you can do it, but it can end up being a case of the operation was a success, but the patient died.
Just was rather hoping someone else had already experienced this problem and posted the registry tweak. Didn't want spend hours reinventing the wheel. Not because I'm lazy, but I have so many demands on my time that resolving a minor issue that effects me only seems like it should be pretty low priority.
The system I'm using is brand new, but the problem seems to have followed me regardless which may indicate that it is seated in my synchronization information somehow. Really don't know how that could happen as I'm not an Adobe engineer or have the remotest idea where to even start looking. So I think I'll mark your suggestion as the "Answer" and just learn to live with it.
Windows eh! Can't live with - can't live without it. I'm sure Mac can be just as temperamental. Just have to chalk this one up as being just another ghost in the machine.
Thanks for all the advice you have kindly offered, much appreciated.
Cheers,
Pat Doyle

Problems opening & printing pdf files created on a Mac

I am at my wit's end! I recently upgraded to a new version of Acrobat and suddenly a lot of my clients could no longer open my pdf files. I uninstalled the latest version of Acrobat and reinstalled an older version (Acrobat 8.1.3). Some clients started being able to open my pdf files but others could not. So I started using the Acrobat Share server and sending links. Some of my clients cannot open those either and many cannot print even if they can open the files that way. I personally also cannot print from the Acrobat Share server. The pdf files print out with all the surrounding graphics and application design elements. I also can't open the pdf files that I created on my Mac using my PC laptop running Vista. I have tried opening and printing both pdf files and the Acrobat Share links from my Mac and my PC laptop running Vista, to no avail.
I was under the impression that compatibility problems between Macs and PCs were largely a thing of the past. I was also under the impression that the whole point of exchanging pdf files was that pdf files are cross-platform compatible. Not only am I am losing tons of valuable time, I may be losing credibility with my clients (especially since I have an IT background). I desperately need to know what version of Acrobat I should be running on my Mac so that when I scan documents into my Mac, the pdf files that are created are completely 100% compatible with both Mac and PC operating systems regardless of what operating system and what version of Acrobat my clients are running. I also need to be sure that those same pdf files I create on my Mac can be seemlessly printed out from either a Mac or PC regardless of the operating system or Acrobat Reader version. If anyone can help me get to the bottom of this, I will be eternally grateful. Thanks.

This file downloaded and works fine for me in Preview on both OS X 10.5.7 and 10.4.11 (and opens in Acrobat Pro 9.1.1 and 8.1.5, and the latest version of Reader on both versions of the OS). As expected.
If you're printing from Acrobat.com by right clicking in the image area and selecting Print, don't. This isn't printing the PDF, it's printing the Flash frame that contains, as you've noticed, buttons and other elements. (Adobe's Mac Flash plugin is notoriously buggy.) Direct your clients to download the file by selecting the download button, not by right clicking and printing.
Again, your PDF file is fine.

Problems opening InDesign CS4 files in CS5

We have just upgraded to CS5 to take advantage of the tracked changes facility, and immediately encountered problems:
when opening CS4 files in CS5, we've noticed that formulae, created using charater styles, are not displaying properly. For example x = y / z, which would have the x and = signs dropped, the y underlined and the z on the next line, something like this (although much prettier than I can reproduce here):
x = y
z
in CS5, however, all gyphs in the formula are superimposed upon each other
we tried loading the character styles from our template document. However, that caused most of the content to dissapear!
we tried converting our template to CS5 and then loading the character styles from our template document. However, that also caused most of the content to dissapear!
Anybody got any clues?

If you are opening the CS4 files directly in CS5, try exporting CS4 files to IDML and opening the IDML files in CS5. It's worth a try if you haven't already found it doesn't help.
