Shortcuts missing InDesign CS5.5 W7

My shortcuts desappeared from InDesign...I was working with the program just peachy and now I can't even type because 'ENTER' won't work! Checked my menus and all the shortcuts have dissapeared!!! 0.0. Not even when I open old files were everything worked fine....Any fix for this? OS W7 Ultimate. Thanx.

Hello again. Yeap, tried that too. But, don't worry I have good news, I found a solution and it worked for me EDIT>KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS and reset the DEFAULT. It worked and my shortcuts are back in place . Here is the post where I found it, it has additional help for missing shortcuts. Hope it helps....http://indesignsecrets.com/the-case-of-the-missing-keyboard-shortcut.php
Thanx Peter for all the helpful advice

That sounds like a conflict of some sort with a plugin or other software running on all the computers. Mac or PC? Any non-Adobe plugins, including a font auto-activation plugin from a font manager?

Missing Indesign CS5 plugin

I just experience failure on opeing indd file in indesign 5.5. As I have bought a new mac and restore the Adobe design preiume CS5. But I can't open indesign file even I have update it to the version 5.7. A pop up window said there are missing plugin, sharedcontent.indesignplugin. And few more plugins missing reported afterwards. I have been using koaren version before because I need the Chinese typography grid system. Is it related to the problem recently I have and else where can download the koearn version back. I found that there are poor support from Adobe while people need to restore old product on new imac with no CD rom....

ExtendScript Toolkit CS5: Can't see Indesign CS5 in the application list?

Windows 7
Hi
I start Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit CS5. There is a list with the installed and supported Adobe applications, but I miss Indesign CS5 in this list. E.g. I can see Indesign CS5.5, Indesign Server CS5 and a few other applications, but not Indesign CS5. On another PC I can see all applications.
What is wrong?
Why is this application missing?
What can I do?
I have installed a few Adobe applications, e.g. Indesign, Indesign Server and InCopy (CS3, CS4, CS5, CS5.5 of all applications (debug and release)).
Thanks for the help.

Hello, Hans!
Sorry, that might not be helpful at all, but:
be sure that your version of ESTK is 3.5.1
or try ESTK for CS5.5. There you could have access to InDesign CS5 as well.
It's a bit strange…
In my case right now I have access to InDesign CS5 AND InDesign CS5.5 in ESTK 3.5.1.
I have installed CS Design Premium for CS3, CS4, CS5 and CS5.5 on Mac OSX 10.6.8.

Indesign CS5 shortcuts won't work

i have just installed creative suite 5 and when i came to open indesign none of the keyboard shortcuts or toolbars were there. i previously used a free trial of indesign cs4 before uninstalling it to install cs5. i have been to edit> keyboard shortcuts> set, but there is nothing there (nothing in the drop down box) and when i have tried to manually assign shortcuts it won't let me save them. i have also been to c:> program files> adobe> Adobe InDesign CS5> presets, and there are no keyboard presets saved here unlike illustrator were there is a folder called keyboard presets. if anyone can help i would be very grateful

There is an Adobe Technote available that covers missing keyboard shortcuts etc in InDesign CS4. http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408055.html am wondering if you are encountering a similar issue in CS5. Might be worth having a look at this.

My InDesign CS5 has recently been acting up, its missing the toolbar along with other problems.

My InDesign CS5 has recently been acting up, its missing the toolbar (and yes it checked all the tabs and so on). My question is with uninstalling the program and then re-installing it solve my problems? Its been acting up in other ways as well such as I can"t use shortcuts anymore and the tabs on the top seem to be missing some normally present features. What should I do as a senior in college with a design show coming up I really need my InDesign CS5. Thanks in advance

I am running InDesign CS5.5 and trying to open an In Design File but getting an error message. " Cannot open the file "PDavidLCover.indd". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file me be open in another application."Please help I really need to get this file open.

Since you've shown us the folder contents it's a good bet it isn't in use (no lock file). And it doesn't look like the file is mis-named as there doesn't seem to be anything else there that would be the .indd file (but just in case, open it in TextEdit and paste the first few lines here so we can see what the file header says), so the most likely case is the file is damaged. Is that on a removable device of some sort?
You can try the tool at Repair corrupt InDesign Adobe files on Mac OS X or send me a link to the file by private message and I'll try the recovery tool I have for Windows.

Mac upgrade to Yosemite, Adobe Indesign CS5 keyboard shortcuts not working - t for text - z for zoom - v for pointer etc

So I upgraded my MACBOOK PRO (Retina, Mid 2012) 2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7
to MAC OS X YOSEMITE
Adobe Indesign CS5 generally works with some very annoying bugs.
All major keyboard shortcuts that use a single key command have stopped working. and these happen to be the main ones I use all the time for editing...
t for text
z for zoom
v for pointer
It's annoying because now I have to keep going back to the tool bar to change my cursor selection. It's just slowing me down.
Annoying but workable.
Has anyone else go this issue?
An update or fix would be greatly appreciated.

WARNING!!!
I was contacted by apparently a third party supplier called Adobe Systems via this forum
They logged in to my computer via team viewer
installed utorrent
and proceed to download a cracked version of adobe cs6
in the mean time saying on skype that Adobe no longer has Adobe CS6 on their server.
This seemed very OFF to me and I disconnected the skype (and blocked Adobe Systems) and disconnected TeamViewer
If I wanted a cracked version of Adobe CS6 I'm very capable of doing this kind of thing my self
However I run a business I want to have a legitimate licensed copy of the software running for my staff.
They were offering a fully licensed version of a Adobe Master Suite CS6 with my own unique ID for USD$400
Again very OFF considering the upgrade from Adobe from Indesign CS5 to CS6 is almost AUD$1600
I don't know how they got my email address from this forum but it seems that the adobe forum has been hacked!
you have been warned!

InDesign CS5.5 Won't Place Word 2011 Files (Mac); Missing Filter?

I'm confused. I opened approximately 15 Word files, cut all the photos, then saved them as Word 97-2004 files. Then I opened an InDesign CS5.5 file and tried to place each Word file but I keep getting a "No filter found for requested operation" error message. I was able to place a couple of the files but I got the error message for all the rest.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Lloyd

Hi Robert, we haven't seen you here for a while. Welcome back.

I know Jongware complains bitterly that Word import can be really flakey. Did you try daving as plain .doc, too? Seems like MathType equations are also the subject of a fair number of posts, too, but I'm not sure they are really a similar problem. I don't suppose there's any way for you to convert the eqations to .ai or PDF and still use them as links in Word, or to embed rather than link?
I'm working on big tool to automatic mass processing big number of Word files. One of the steps is to prepare Word files with MathType equations for further manual processing. I have a macro (for Word2010) to automatically export all equations to EPS files. The next step is to reImport EPS files back to Word - so they will be imported into InDesign as linked files and then they could be automatically correctly positioned withing the text.
The problem is - I've done reImport step in Word2000 - as 2nd macro - and it works perfectly fine for DOC files saved from Word2000.
Of course I can do this in InDesign - but I think it would be faster in Word.
I think missing import of the linked files for DOCX files is a BIG bug ...

How to save down from InDesign Creative Cloud version to CS5? Have exported as .idml file but still get messages that plug-ins are missing although CS5 confirms it is fully updated.

How to save down from InDesign Creative Cloud version to CS5? Have exported as .idml file but still get messages that plug-ins are missing although CS5 confirms it is fully updated.

Yes. Thanks. I misled myself based on another post. Successfully did this by selecting "File," "Save a copy ..." then choosing "for CS4 or later (IDML)"
It required some patience and several tries, but I think that was due to hardware (memory) being overloaded by CC Cloud version or something. It was a 50 MB, 500-page file and took 17 minutes to convert/save,
Re-capping: from CCloud to CS5, don't use "Export" (to IDML); use "Save as" or "Save a copy" and select "for CS4 or later (IDML)".
Advice much appreciated.

Missing words creating PDF with Acrobat 7 (newly installed InDesign CS5)

Since a few days I have some curiosity creating PDF files!
Randomly the PDF output is missing whole words in the document but having spares in the right tracking for them in the document.
It occurs that the missing words are subject to another font however not all words in this font are missing in the document.
Also my printer tell's me if he's going to print the PDF (in this case a serial letter with pre-stamped addresses) his computer is breaking down completely and also printing hieroglyphs.
This document was printed from MS Word 2003 with "Adobe PDF" as printer.
I also use FreePDFXP, though the same error comes up.
In addition I tried several settings for the PDF with no effect in the outcome.
I am still working with Acrobat 7 (from CS2 suite) under WinXP Professional SP3 and hadn't any problems before installing my InDesign CS5 upgrade a few days ago.
I only can assume that the problem is InDesign CS5 but cannot prove it.
Anyone an idea on how to solve the problem?!
I am really annoyed about this since for the pre-stamped letters I already paid money to the mail service and the need to be in the mail today - otherwise I am loosing several 100 Euros to the paper-bin).

Thanks for your feedback.
However I checked all the settings in the joboptions. All fonts are to be embedded (100%) and I also actively selected the fonts to be transferred.
I am using TheSans from LucasFonts as Open Type.
For my document I have SemiLight as standard style and Bold for accentuation.
While the bold style will be printed in "bold only" lines, it is not printed in lines/paragraphs where also the SemiLight style is used.
When I change color of the words in bold, the effect inverts and only the bold style words are displayed but not the SemiLight text!
I have a second laptop with the same system and software configuration (Win XP Professional SP3; Acrobat 7), where the same document runs smoothly.
That's why I assume, that it must be the Indesign CS5 upgrade causing trouble (it's the only new addition to the first laptop).
Unfortunately Adobe has no answer here also.
The only solution would be to adopt my documents for this effect and follow the logic of the machine instead of my mind...
As we do so often since invention of computers...

InDesign CS5 won't launch - missing plug-ins

InDesign CS5 won’t launch on Windows 7. I get the following error messages:
Cannot load the LINKS.RPLN plug-in
Cannot load the FONT USAGE DIALOG.RPLN plug-in
Cannot load the XMEDIA UI.RPLN plug-in
After these error messages InDesign crashes.
Do I need to reinstall the plug-ins?
If yes, how do I do that?

I couldn't find a repair option so tried to reinstall InDesign as you've suggested. This doesen't seem to work either, as I received the following installation error:

Export for epub missing in my Indesign CS5

I have just installed In Design CS as part of the Adobe design premium suite. My problem is, Export for epub menu option is not visible. Hence I'm unable to export any epub. How can I bring back this option. Please help.
Refer the attached screengrab.

Did you check your "Applications/Adobe InDesign CS5/Scripts" directory for additional directories "XHTML For Digital Editions" and "Export as XHTML"?
Be aware that both subdirectories "Resources" and "startup scripts" should be present with a bunch of additional scripts.

Items missing on PDF when using Indesign CS5.5 doc in Indesign CS6

I have had the problem of picking up a document that had been created in Indesign CS5.5 processing to PDF out of Indesign CS6 and two lines of type and two lines of outlined type had 'disappeared' when run to a PDF.
I spent some time investigating layers etc to no avail. When I eventually processed the document out of CS5.5 to PDF the result was exactly as appearing on screen in Indesign.
Does anyone know of this discrepancy between 5.5 and 6 or am I doing something wrong?

Is it interactive PDF or the Print PDF ?
Are you using the same settings in Cs6 that is in Cs5 ?
also, are these items on the master page ?
