Seeing a Pagemaker 6.5 file in 6.0

Please help - I need to open a file, created by a frind in pagemaker 6.5, in my pagemaker 6.0.  My pagemaker doesn't recognise his file, and he doesn't know a way of writing a 6.0-compatible file.  By whatever means, please advise how we can make this work, so by any means I can open and use the file he has sent me.
Thanks

All I remember is I took my PM 6.5 files to Kinkos and all they had was PM 6 I opened the files and low and behold what a mess. I had to go back and redo everything so I could out put the files. It had something to do with image frames and PM 6 did not recognize them.

  • InDesign CS4 fails to open PageMaker 6.5 files correctly

    After upgrading to InDesign CS4 this week, I attempted to open a PageMaker 6.5 file. It opened, but the pages were out of sequence. PageMaker 6.5 pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc., opened in InDesign CS4 as pages 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, etc.
    I purchased InDesign CS4 last week for the sole purpose of working on two books I created in PageMaker 6.5. For me, at present InDesign CS4 is useless. I hope Adobe provides a fix soon.
    Also the upgrade rejected my PageMaker 6.5 serial number, I tried all the fixes at the Adobe website, finally after half an hour on the phone I was given a challenge/response code which then launched InDesign. If I need to reinstall InDesign, I'll have to go through the challenge response process again, i.e. another long wait on the support line.
    I'm using OS 10.5.5 on the newest, unibody PowerBook Pro.

    From the help files:
    Flow text semi-automatically
    With a loaded text icon, Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) a page or frame.
    The text flows one column at a time, as in manual flow, but the loaded text icon automatically reloads after each column is placed.
    Flow text automatically
    With the loaded text icon displayed, hold down Shift as you do one of the following:
    Click the loaded text icon in a column to create a frame the width of that column. InDesign creates new text frames and new document pages until all text is added to the document.
    Click inside a text frame that is based on a master text frame. The text autoflows into the document page frame and generates new pages as needed, using the master frames attributes. (See About masters, stacking order, and layers.)
    Flow text automatically without adding pages
    With a loaded text icon, hold down Shift+Alt (Windows) or Shift+Option (Mac OS).

  • When downloading is complete, I can not see, run, nor access the file; it only appears in the "Downloads" window (and not the specified folder) and the only options permitted are to delete it, or to go to the download web site; what's blocking it?

    My PC's OS is 'MS Windows Vista Home Premium'. As my initil question states: When downloading, after the download completes, I can not see, run, nor access the file in it's designated folder. The download only appears in the "Downloads" window and the only "Right Click" options permitted are to "Remove From List", "Select All", & "Copy Download Link" I also can not double click to run it. What's blocking it?
    I have a similar problem when accessing .zip files that are attachments to my emails. Here, however, I can place the file in a designated folder, however, the .zip file and it's compressed content files are file-typed as "FireFox Document" and I get permissions errors when running an unzip tool.
    Why are my download files being quarantined ??? Is there a security setting option I need to change???
    To get around this, I'm using IE to download and install these files, but switching back & forth between FireFox & IE is a real pain.

    It's your anti-virus not working correctly while scanning. You can turn off the option to scan in Firefox's '''about:config''' by filtering for '''browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone''' and double-clicking that line to change the value to '''false'''

  • How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

    I don't think Finder does this (I've tried).
    iTunes does though. Where you can set artwork or the "poster frame"...
    This may not be what you want but if it helps, I know 2 ways  do this is
    Open the video in QuicktimePlayer7 | View | Set Poster Frame (even then, you might need to save it as .mov (ie in a 'mov container').
    Drag the file into iTunes and set the artwork (as in http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/adding-album-cover-art-or-images-in-itunes .html)
    From there, iTunes will use that frame as the "poster frame" ie the photo/frame that shows when you browse your videos. Which is what you want, but limited to iTunes.
    When I do either of these above, the frame I set does not show when exploring files in "Finder" (or in the other Explorer tool I use called "Pathfinder").
    So it maybe, that exactly what you want, is not possible.

  • Not able to see the content of opened files (.jpg or .psd) in Photoshop CS6

    I recently downloaded Adobe Design and Web Premium CS6.  I am not able to see the content of any of the file I open (.psd or .jpg).  I do see the file has been opened as the file name appears on the open file tabs, I also see the preview of the file in the Navigator Window and list of layers in the layers window.  I am relatively new to this so might be missing on some option that needs to be turned on or something. 
    I am using Window 7 Professional, Service Pack 1, with 8GB RAM.
    Any suggesstion/help is greatly appreciated.

    This is going to be the weak point:
    Intel(R) HD Graphics card
    While the Intel HD chip is fine for general computer work, it is weak for programs, like Photoshop and Adobe Premiere. The driver support is usually very bad, as well. If Lenovo does not have updated drivers, that work better, about the only choice that one has with a laptop is to turn OFF graphics accleration, and wait for a new driver. That will probably be very slow in coming.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - Noel's link will list what you are missing.

  • Can't open Pagemaker 6.5 files in ID CS2 - Vista

    I was running ID CS2 on a Windows XP Pro system and had no problems opening Pagemaker 6.5 files. That system recently suffered a processor demise that affected the motherboard and forced me to start over with a new system that's now running Vista Home Premium. All of the programs I use loaded fine on Vista except Pagemaker 6.5. When I try to load it, I get a message saying it's not compatible. So I thought, OK, I'll simply open the Pagemaker files in In Design as I've done in the past and resave them. However, every file I've attempted to open gives me an error message saying the files are damaged and can't be opened. I know none of the files are damaged because I'd recently opened many of the same files in Pagemaker before the other system crashed. BTW, all of the Pagemaker files are on external drives so couldn't have been affected by the crash.
    Any ideas how I can get around this?

    Thanks, Bob. I have another issue that I can't find any specifics on in the forum.
    Do you know why Arial Narrow fonts aren't available in the InDesign or Photoshop font list? I've always used these fonts with no problems in XP Pro, but since going to Vista, they don't show up. They're listed in the Windows font folder. The only one that shows up in InDesign and Photoshop is Arial regular. Arial Narrow shows up and is available in Word and other programs but not Adobe.

    I had the same problem after I gave my old iPad to my parents and tried to install Netflix. This is what you have to do:  Open iTunes on your computer, the one you sync your iPad to. Then go to iTunes Store and search for and download Netflix app. After you download it, if your iPad is set to download new purchases it may start downloading on your iPad. If so, tap and hold to delete the app (because it is trying to install the new version on the iPad) Next step, go to the App Store on your iPad and find Netflix and it should say install since you already purchased it on the computer. Tap to install, and it will say the version is not compatible, tap to download a previous version. Click that and it will install the older version!    One more thing, if and when you sync to your computer again it will say something like " Unable to install Netflix on your iPad" Just click the box to never remind you again, because it's trying to sync the newer Netflix app to your iPad, but it doesn't work so it displays the message. The old app will remain on the ipad. Hope this helps, good luck

  • Where to see the size of the file in XI system

    where to see the size of the file in XI system..i mean after sending it into XI....
    Edited by: Harsha reddy on Jun 25, 2008 5:51 PM

    Hi,
    You can UDF like in Message Mapping to get the file size.
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","SourceFileSize");
    fileSize = conf.get(key);
    You have to mention adapter specific attribute for file size in file adapter.
    How to retrieve file size and XI message ID?

  • In snow leopard, you could see the size of each file. Is this the case for os lion?each file

    In Snow Leopard, you could see the size of the file which was shown at the bottom of the file. This does not appear to be the case with OS Lion. Am I wrong? Thank you for your help.

  • Can't see images under Photoshop CS6 file icons.

    I have installed PS CS6 and updated it to 7.2.  I can see my images under Bridge file icons, but under PS file icons, the images are generic.  What do I need to do in Photoshop?  What does Bridge have that PS does not?

    Bill Hunt wrote:

    Can you elaborate on this statement a bit, please?...
    He means he installed Photoshop and updated the ACR plug-in to version 7.2.
    What he neglects to say is whether he updated Photoshop itself to version 13.0.1. 

  • Can't read PageMaker 6.5 files with InDesign CS3

    I have a lot of old PageMaker 6.5 files that need to be upgraded to InDesign.
    When I try to open them in InDesign CS3, I get an error that says:
    Cannot open the file "XYZ". 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.
    I get this error on a Mac Pro G5 (PowerPC), running OS X 10.5.8.
    What's interesting is that when I try to open the same files on other computers on the network, it works just fine.  The other machines are all Intel Macs, running OS X 10.6.8 or greater.  The files are on a Mac Server.
    Can this problem be fixed on the Mac G5, maybe by installing a plugin, or is there no hope?
    Thanks!

    Interesting thought, but I suspect the file is actually a training manual and that's the real name of the file, with no extension at all. Pagemaker 6.5 files would have had a .p65 extension, I believe.

  • I see message "Cannot open the file. Not enough memory to open the file"

    When I'm trying to open file from adobe.com on my tablet, I see massage " Cannot open the file. Not enough memory to open the file" . I've got 10 gb free memory , so I dont know, why...

    Which system are you running (is this information correct in your profile)?
    Are there complicating issues to this question such as you transferring libraries between computers?

    The acsm file is not the book, it is a ticket to get the book.  I sometimes get library books online, here is what I do.
    1. Start ADE on the computer
    2. Go to library website and find the book I want to download.
    3. Click on the download link
    4. In windows 7 a box opens asking whether I want to open( or run) or save the acsm file
    5. Click open/run and ADE downloads the book into the "Library"
    6. Transfer the book (epub file) to the reader.
