Shared Content feature for InDesign ?

So, I noticed that another application, that I won't mention the name of, has this cool feature called "Shared Content"
http://www.quark.com/products/xpress/features_shared.html
Does anyone know if there are any extensions, plugins, etc that might achieve this same result? Basically, I have multiple layouts for different markets that have much, but not all, of the same merchandise. These layouts reside on separate InDesign files, different sizes, etc.
I'd like to be able to make copy changes ONCE and have them flow through to all copy blocks I have associated with the "master" copy block.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have!

                   To see Other previous Features please go to my profile & click on My Stuff.

    Dear Peter I did it but its not working, as you said, & also when selection Tool is selected we must be able to select direct selection tool by pressing Ctrl key to get it temporarly & if direct selection tool is slected we would press Ctrl key to get selection tool temporarly. like Illustrator. bytheway I am using Middle Eastern, maybe That problem is in M.E.
    But thats OK!!! Pressing Ctrl key to get these tools temporarly is better idea than pressing their own shortcuts.
    & Adobe should remove Frame Tools from InDesign b/c everyone knows these days, in InDesign basic shape tools can be changed into Frames & text frames, & text Frames also. Why rough/extra icons are needed?? in beautiful interface of lovely InDesign, few people say this is just for Quark Express user or another page layout program users, but in my idea every one know, now InDesign is the worlds no: 1 application for pagelayout & every one can see the free tutorials on TV.Adobe.com & if any person who is new user of InDesign, when that person start InDesign, that person will be welcomed by InDesign's Beautiful welcome screen, & in welcome screen there is written "Learn more about Adobe© Indesign© CS5 on Adobe TV", now no body should say ooooh with internet connected we are able to see these text!!!!! I know, but in these days computer users always use net, or I should say internet is the part of modern life, its enough to understand.
    20th. feature
    Script in InDesign ???? why ?
    in future there must be Actions in InDesign, just like Illustrator & Photoshop so that every user of indesign can understand actions in Ai & Ps, Ps & Ai users can understand in ID easily, it will be the best for new & old users. I know actions are also script, but action are easy to understand & easily can be created by anyone, & history panel is also necessary for InDesign, I know thirdparty plugins are available, but Adobe should release their applications flexible for Adobe users.

  • No InBooklet SE features for InDesign CS3, is there a 3rd party plug-in ???

    I am searching for a plug-in for Mac that will supply all/most of the capabilities of InDesign's CS2 InBooklet SE for InDesign CS3. Realizing that Print Booklet was not designed to offer the same services as it's CS2 predecessor, I am hoping that a 3rd party will step up to the plate to fill the gap.
    Features such as manually altering the pagination by deleting or inserting blank pages and generating a new InDesign document in printer spreads (rather than just a PDF, as in CS3) are vital to my Design department.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks all!

    InBooklet was VERY limited in it's ability to PROPERLY create new files.
    That ability would have gotten even worse had those limitations
    continued into CS3.
    Imposition is the job of the printer, not the designer. And if you are
    the printer there's really no need to be imposing InDesign files.
    Follow Richard's advice and impose PDFs...it's far safer since you don't
    have to worry about shadows moving or number lists getting totally mangled.
    You might want to have a look at Quite Imposing since I wouldn't really
    want to depend on anything owned by Quark.

  • Shared Content InDesign Plugin for InDesign CS4 won't open file

    Yesterday I discontinued using Adobe CC and went back to using my Adobe InDesign CS4.  CS4 is working OK but there is ONE file that won't open.  I get the message "Shared Content InDesign Plugin is currently not available on your system".  The file will not open. Is there a workaround or how do I get the required plugin?

    You get that error when the file was saved in CS5 or later. You can find out the version using the script at Adobe Forums: [Ann] Identify Your InDesign File.
    You'll need to export the file to .idml from the newer version to be able to open it in CS4. This is something I normally offer to do, but I'm not available for at least a week, so perhaps one of our other regulars can step up and volunteer.

  • Shared content Indesign plug-in?

    I am trying to use template for Chinese text from http://www.techart.com/downloads/ . I am getting a shared content plug-in required warning. I am on CS4 and the template is also CS4.
    please help

    The INDT file(s) are CS6. Are you trying to open the INDT or the IDML file(s)?
    Edit to clarify. The INDT files, the template files, are CS6.
    The IDML files are what you are going to need to open.

  • Unchecking "Shared Hyperlink Destination" causes InDesign CS5.5 to crash

    This occurs on multiple Macs (running either Leopard or Snow Leopard) in our office. The links are connected to conditional text in InCopy. Here's the scenario:
    1) Open the InDesign document and select the linked text.
    2) Get a dialog box: "You must check out the contents of this frame in order to make changes. Check out now?" Click "Yes."
    3) Copy the text of the link, right-click and select "New Hyperlink."
    4) In the "New Hyperlink" window, paste in the text of the URL (leaving in the http://).
    5) Uncheck "Shared Hyperlink Destination." InDesign immediately crashes.
    I've been told by our designers that you have to uncheck "Shared Hyperlink Destination" to prevent changes to all of the other related links in the document. I don't work with InDesign on a regular basis and have very limited knowledge of InCopy. I tested the current version of InDesign (7.5.3) on my Mac and the same crash occurred.
    Here is the first part of the crash report:

    Thanks to you both. Excuse my ignorance - I presumed that 7.5.3 was a paid-for-upgrade to Creative Suite 6 (or higher?!)... I thought I had the Updater set to prompt me for updates, but I obviously didn't.
    Anyhow - I've since run the updater, but the crash happens the same way. Here's the new crash report.
    http://pastebin.com/JNvtTRbn
    Hopefully there's something of use in this - I really don't want to have to manually do this: I have nearly 200 film titles that need to be listed in alphabetical order with their respective page number, and the TOC feature would be the perfect solution if it actually worked...
    As a matter of interest, how stable is Creative Suite 6 / Creative Cloud? Worth the leap?

  • Can you now have multiple Itunes accounts sharing content on one computer?

    Hi - I was trying to find this information on line but cannot.
    The last "big" Itunes update (11.2?) prevented multiple Itunes accounts from sharing content on one computer.  Well, you can, but with consequences. For example, my husband purchased a movie rental with his Itunes account on our computer when he logged on to Itunes, but then I could not download any Itunes content for 30 days when I logged on to my account. I no longer purchase any content from Apple because of this. I was hoping this feature has been discontinued – it prevents households from purchasing Itunes.  We never pirate or steal any content at all. In fact, this feature forces us out of the Itunes universe to purchase movie rentals and music elsewhere.
    Not just trying to complain, really. Legitimately want to find out if this rights policy still exists before we both try to rent or purchase anything from Itunes.
    Thanks.

        "Won't it present problems if the daughter needs to reauthorize the computer for her own use before 90 days,"
    No. The 90 day limit ONLY applies to redownloading purchases from iTunes..
    So if she were to redownload purchases from the father's account then she'd have to wait 90 days to redownload form her own account. and the computer can be authorized for multiple iTunes account (pretty sure it's 5) . You don't need to later reauthorize for first account if you authorize for a different account.
    More discussion on 90 day wait period - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6094005 - disable automatic downloads so message doesn't appear when using multiple accounts.
    Most people don't see the "re"

  • Page tool prevents use of Print Booklet feature in InDesign CC2014

    Having used the page tool at one time, but with all pages set to the correct size, the print booklet error message is that the booklet doesn't fit the current paper size.
    There have been previous discussions, but I can't find one active. The discussion shows as answered, but not resolved. early 2012 this issue was reported as a bug and it is InDesign CC2014, 10.1.0.71 Build. This is the Cloud and this issue has not been resolved.
    I went so far as to create a new document and take all the objects from one document and copy to the new document and the issue still exists. I created the document originally in InDesign CS6.I copy pasted contents into a clean document in CC2014. This is a valuable document that needs to be edited and used in the future.
    Can someone please respond as to: if this bug that has been reported numerous times in the past, will it ever be fixed? Are we eliminating print booklet at some point so it isn't worth the investment? I don't get it. If there is another discussion open for this, I can't find it. Thanks.

    That is not a correct answer. My question was not addressed, however, I very much appreciate the workaround. Go figure…. I think there is a feature in InDesign that if not working, should be removed by the software developers. [back to my question.]
    I need to print proofs for a variety of people where I work. I don't want to explain my software is broken and they will need to proof single pages.
    I did not know about the print booklet feature in Acrobat. That should suffice nicely.
    I still didn't get my question answered, however, so please don't close this discussion.

  • Best security features for iPad mini at high risk for theft?

    I'm giving my disabled sister (mental disability) a new iPad mini for Christmas.  I bought her the $300 WiFi-only model.  She lives in a group home 800 miles away.  She doesn't own a computer or have easy access to a computer (she uses the computer at her local public library).  She usually goes to restaurants and malls to get a free WiFi signal.  She's also an easy target for thieves because her disability is clearly visible.  Regardless, I want to giver her this device.  She's fairly responsible - she never lost the iPod Touch I gave her years ago. 
    How should I set up her new iPad mini, before mailing it to her, to give her the best possible protection against loss/theft?  I am aware of iCloud and FindMyiPhone, which I use often.  Should I add my sister's new iPad mini to my existing iCloud account, even though we live far apart?  She could then call me whenever she loses it, and I can find it for her by using the FindMyiPhone app.  However, I'm worried about sharing an iCloud account with her -- that she may possibly download music/purchases to her iPad mini by accident, that will be charged to my iTunes account. 
    Are there other apps that I can install on her iPad mini, or unknown features that I can turn on, that will help me or her find her lost/stolen device?  Remember, she will most likely need my assistance, from 800 miles away, to recover it.  
    I will also consider buying insurance for her if prices are reasonable and coverage includes loss/theft. 
    Thanks for any help! 

    If you use your iCloud account, then she will also share your email, contacts and so forth.  So that both of you can have privacy, why not make her a new AppleID, create a new iCloud account for her, but you keep the password so you can login to her iCloud to track her device or remote wipe it and so forth, if ever needed.
    She could then use that same AppleID for her own iTunes or App store purchases, and you could even use the allowance feature to control the spending on it, so she cannot get into trouble by mistakingly over-spending (of course she will need the password for that, but she is not likely to change it I imagine, so you would still be able to use it as well).  If you feel it necessary, you can also enable restrictions with a passcode only you know, and disable in-app purchases or set up other restrictions like that if you worry she may unknowingly work up a tab in purchases without realizing they were for fee items.
    Another thing you may want to set up is two-step verification of her AppleID, with your own iPhone or iPad as (at least one of) the trusted devices.  The advantage is two-step removes the security question feature for an AppleID, and gives you a verification code that will ensure you can always recover her AppleID no matter what.
    You should also put a passcode on it, and set the passcode lock to come on immediately (that is, it becomes effective the moment the screen sleeps or is put to sleep manually with no time out or delay).  Your choice whether to also set the device to auto-wipe content after several failed passcode attempts.
    Other than that, I think that is about as secure as can be for any iOS device.  If she does not mind, she could even use a complex passcode instead of the simple 4-digit one - maybe something derived from a phrase she can easily remember ("Thanks for the iPad!" = T4tiP! or something like that).
    Just a P.S. while Apple's own AppleCare+ does cover accidental damage, beware that it does not cover loss or theft.  So if you do want insurance, you will need to buy it from a 3rd party vendor.

  • CS4 shared content plugin

    I am trying to open a document made with cs6 indesign on my cs4 indesign and it gives me a message about shared content plugin. Where can I find this or is there one? is it possible to open a cs6 document in cs4?

    It's a confusing "error" message. InDesign loads the document, inspects the list of 'required' plugins in the file, and compares that against its known list of plugins. Since the "shared content plugin" is either not loaded, or has a lower version number than in the file, ID issues the error. Adobe never thought of simply inspecting the InDesign Version Number in the saved file (at least, not until version 9.0!).
    Of course I could send you the plugin. But what good would it do for you? You don't have the rest of IDCS6 that it requires to run ...

Maybe you are looking for
