Trigger script on the opening of new InDesign doc CS4 js

Hi,
Is it possible to trigger a java script on the double click of the InDesign doc in finder, so the script runs as soon as doc is open. How it can be done.
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi there,
To me InDesign’s after/beforeOpen events are at the very least useless, since they are triggered before the document’s layout window is opened. This is why you can do nothing useful with the document.
The workaround is to use APID Toolkit’s docLoaded event instead, which works perfectly. If you are interested, here is an example of using it: check out source code for Check profile plug-in.

P.S. This was the case with CS3, may be with CS4 things took a turn for the better — I can't check it right now.

When I click on the "Open a new tab" button, nothing is happening. I've checked my settings but everything is fine, what's wrong?

Just a couple days ago all of a sudden the "Open a new tab" button wasn't working and even going into "file" and then "open new tab" it doesn't open a new tab. I have to go into my bookmarks and right click "open in new tab" for any new tab to open. I've checked my settings and nothing is there about it. Is there anything that I can do to fix it?

You're welcome

I'm using FF 3.5.18 and I do not want newer versions because : using in the Open in New Tab page opens the near tab and not as a FF 3.5.18 or is it possible to do that open in new tabs would be the end. of the new FF version

You can change a preference to make tabs open
# at the end of all open tabs
# immediately after the current tab.
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
*Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
*If you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
*Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
*Look at the "Value" column ('''false'''=open at end, '''true'''=open after current tab); Value = true is the default.
*Double-click that preference to toggle the value from true to false, or false to true
*Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)

How do I get a new tab to open? Clicking on the "Open A New Tab" (+) does nothing.

I use to be able to open multiple tabs on Firefox by clicking the + (Open A New Tab). Now nothing happens when I click this button.

Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar''''' ('''''if you have it installed'''''). It can cause that problem.

The "open a new tab" button does not open a new tab.

The "open a new tab" button does not work. Neither does "file; new tab", or Control T. Can you please tell me how to fix this?
Thank you.

This issue can be caused by the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

How do I get a Vista 64 bit XP machine to show a "+" icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" and the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar?

I have Firefox 4.0.1 installed on two laptops, one with Windows Vista, 64 bit and the other with Windows XP. Both machines have the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar. The XP machine also has a + icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" while the Vista machine does not have that + icon. I like using that; is there any way to get it on the Vista machine?

After weeks of trying, I stumbled on the solution:
# Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip, select Customize... and the Customize Toolbar window will open.
# At the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window, there are additional options for changing the appearance of the icons in your toolbars. From the Show drop-down menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars — Icons, Text, or Icons and Text together. By default, Firefox just shows Icons.
# Select Icons and Text
# When you are finished making changes, click Done to close the Customize Toolbar window.

Opening links in a RSS feed using the Open in New Tab/Window command doesn't work in FF4. It worked perfectly in FF 3.6. What seems to be the problem?

I have set up a number of RSS feeds to open in folders underneath the search/address bar in Firefox. I use them mainly to follow news updates from newspaper websites etc. After installing FF4, the opening of links contained in those folders (lists of links) using right-click and selecting the Open in New Tab command stopped working. There is no response whatsoever - as if I didn't click the command.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History?

Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History? This very annoying.

Seriously - what could they have possibly been thinking? Mozilla, please tell us this was some kind of mistake. Accessing our bookmarks in FF-mobile is just plain bad as a user experience. And now without "Open In New Tab" we are supposed to drill down to our bookmarks for every tab we want to open? FF-mobile is almost useless without "Open In New Tab". Please restore "Open In New Tab" for bookmarks, thanks.

I have tried everything suggested to get rid of the "Open a new tab" search page.

I just bought a new computer with Windows7. I downloaded and installed Firefox 18.0.1 about a week ago.
I am trying to get the history icon page to open when I click the "Open a new tab".
Some of the things I've tried (like resetting Firefox and installing the add-on) worked but only until I shut down.
When I load Firefox again, that pesky search page ("Open a new tab") is back.
How can I get the history icon page to stay permanently from day to day?

No addons, extensions or user.js file.
Problem persists.

I can open my new InDesign files by going up through the menu and opening that way, but when I try to just double click on an InDesign file I get error messages telling me that certain plugins aren't available.

I upgraded my Mac a few weeks ago to 10.10.2 Yosemite, and I joined the Adobe cloud so I could get access to all the new apps. I read a blurb somewhere about converting older InDesign files to the new CC version I'd have to open the old files in my old InDesign CS3, export to an ins file, then open that file in the new InDesign CC, then export it again to an idml file, then open that file and you shouldn't have any of the usual conversion problems. For the first few files I had to convert, it worked just fine. Now for some reason, whenever I try to open one of these converted files just by double-clicking on the file itself, I get an error message that says, "The document ____ uses one or more plug-ins which are currently not available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?" When I click OK, then I get another error message that says, "Cannot open ____. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." I thought this CC version of InDesign was the newest. Can somebody please tell me what gives with this? Any help will be very much appreciated.

Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC.

Can't open many new InDesign files in CS6

First, in case this is relevant, my company uses Google Drive as our cloud-based file system. My design team uses creative cloud and we're running into a problem with new InDesign (CS6) files being saved. That is, we can't open them, we get a dialog box saying that the file cannot be opened. At first this was just one or two files but now it is a large number of them. We discovered we CAN open them if we open them through InDesign "as a copy", and it will open without any problem. Obviously this isn't even close to ideal. Is Google Drive to blame? We used to have Dropbox and this never happened then, which is why I think it may have something to do with it.
Note that sometimes a file can be opened while three or four other ones can't be.
Thank you in advance!

Look for and delete .idlk files (for .indd files you know are not open). I know nothing about Google drive or how to tell it to let ID delete them itself when the .indd is closed.

Is there a way to bring back the "Open a New Tab" option via right-clicking on the Tab?

I just upgraded to latest version of Firefox (6.0). Yesterday it informed me that an upgrade to Firefox 5.(something) was available and asked if I wanted to upgrade. I went for it. However, I hadn't used it since then till today. Now when I opened it today it asked me if I wanted to upgrade to version 6.0. Without hesitation, I went for it too.
While this version looks nice, it feels a bit odd to use it. Previously whenever I wanted to open a new Tab, I right-clicked on any of the Tabs (active tab or any other Tab) and after right-clicking, it had the option to '''''Open a New Tab''''' along with few other options. Now there's no such option. There's the + button to open a new tab, but what if I want to open a link in a new tab by right-clicking on it? Similarly the option to Open in New Window is also missing.
Is there a way to bring back those previous Tab options/settings? If yes, how?
P.S. In my bookmark toolbar, when I click on a bookmark icon, it has the same options/settings as it previously had in the last version I used (last version I used was 3.something; while I'd upgraded to version 5.something I hadn't used it except for opening the browser when it asked me to upgrade to version 6.0). Options on right clicking the bookmark icon are:
Open
Open in a New Tab
Open in a New Window
New Bookmark...
New Folder...
New Separator
Cut
Copy
Paste
Delete
Properties
I'd also like to mention here that I know of the shortcut keys; so please don't waste your time by trying to help me that way. Thanks.

No. The Tab bar is a regular toolbar in current Firefox versions, so you get the normal right-click context menu of a toolbar if you right-click the tab bar.
You can double click on empty space on the tab bar to open a new tab if you do not want to use the new tab button. 
You can drag a link on that new tab button to open that link in a new tab. 
You can also drag the new tab button on another toolbar if you would like that better. 
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

Each time I click the "Open a New Tab" button, how do I make FF open to my homepage and why isn't this default behavior?

Firefox does not default to your homepage when you manually open a new tab. It should do so.
Is there a way to make FF do this? Is it an addon? If so, should this not be default behavior and just be incorporated into the browser?

# Type ''about:config'' in Firefox's location bar
# Find ''browser.newtab.url''
# Double click on it
# Paste your homepage link into the text box
# Click ''Ok''

How do I get new pages in new tabs to automatically go the same setting as my home page? Google is my home page, and I want the opening in new tabs to default to Google also.

Whenever I open a new tab, I want the new page to open to the same setting as my Home Page (in my case, Google). Instead it takes me to Bing. Even my Home Page reverts to Bing after I've set it to Google.

The default New Tab in Firefox is a blank page and there is no built-in option to change that.
*CTRL+left-click the Home icon will open a new tab to your set home page.
**See --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page

I'm looking for an add on that opens a new web page. In prior versions it looked similar to a "+" sign. It is not the "Open a new Window Button" Thank you.

The add on opens a blank new web page. For example, when on a web page, you can open a new page, with all bookmarks on the sidebar.
