Trouble with Opening CS5.5 docs

Hi,
I've been working with ID forever, and for the first time I'm having difficulties opening CS5.5 docs on a brand new iMac runinng OS X 10.8.3.
It seems that when it does it's "checking" (for errors, missing fonts and links etc.) it keeps beachbaling. Then it looks like it OK, then it beachballs again. and again. and again.
Once (after 4-5 minutes [!] per file) the file actually opens, everything is quick and smooth.
Anybody have any ideas? It really bums out our workflow.
Thanks,
Dov

  • Trouble with Bridge CS5.1

    I am running the latest version of the Lion (10.7.2).
    After the upgrade of Camera Raw Bridge become unstable and useless for me.
    As soon as I try to click on the menu bar the Bridge freeze and it is not possible to do other than using the forced termination (opt / cmd / esc).
    I have reset the preferences, purge the entire Thummbnail Cache and reset to Standard Workspaces.
    I have taken the previous version from backup and made a restart. But the problem is still there.
    Is there anyone else who has experienced this?
    Will a reinstallation of Bridge solve the problem?
    Kind regards
    Venche Jensen.

    I will try to remove the ARC, and then try to revert to the previous version of ARC.
    I have tried to open a raw file via Photoshop. It wount work. I will giv you a feedback when done.

    Since the menu bar on top hang too, I think it is a combination of problem the upgrade of Mac OS and Bridge + ACR.
    If you have the option to revert to the previous version of ACR (6.4) and check if this sorted things out it might be helpful for all other users. Personal I have not yet upgraded to Lion (I'm on 10.6.8) and have ACR 6.5 installed. It only gives me the problem that I can't choose an other location for the files in Adobe Photo downloader but that's fine, I always have the same folder i sent them to so that is working for me.
    If you have a back up inTime Machine or other Back Up try to find the 6.4 version. Or check the thread about Photodownloader to see how I retrieved it with re install.

  • Trouble with opening/creating Server Model Diagrams

    I created server model diagrams by drag-and-dropping specific tables from the Server Model Navigator. Is it supposed to take a LONG time
    for this step (e.g., 3 whole minutes for one table) or should it be basically "immediate"? They eventually made it, but seemed unreasonably long!
    I saved the diagrams, quit, and come back to the repository, see the diagram names, click on a diagram, verify the elements inside, everything
    looks good -- until I try to open the diagram, it (Design Editor) locks up every time!!
    Does anybody know why I'm having either one of the above problems? Is there any setting I need to configure?
    (By the way, I'm using Designer 6i with an Oracle 8.1.7 database.)
    Thanks in advance.
    Brenda

    Could be your memory. Designer takes alot to run, as you may know. Minimum should be 256mb. Close all apps and try to open
    the diagram again. I have had lots of trouble with my designer locking up!

  • Trouble With Opening InDesign and now Photoshop and Illustrator

    First off I apologize if this isn't in the correct section. I couldn't find a section specific to my problem since it involves multiple aspects of Adobe products. I was having trouble with InDesign, it kept crashing. So I followed all of the advice I could find on the forums about deleting the preferences and cache information in the Library folder, and that didn't seem to make a difference. So then I thought maybe it needed an update, so I logged into Adobe Application Manager and sure enough, it did. So I clicked on "download" and it stalled there too. Then the manager became unresponsive. I couldn't cancel the update or log out or anything. So then I saw in the forum someone suggested the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool if your manager becomes unresponsive. I ran that and then shut my computer off. When I turned it back on, InDesign started working BUT my Photoshop is completely gone from my system (I never messed with it in the first place since I wasn't having any trouble with it.) And the when I tried to click on Illustrator it said "Do you want to begin your trial?" Huh?
    I have had a subscription since 2012, why on earth would it suddenly think that I no longer should have access to these programs? If I log on to my Adobe account it shows my subscription and that it's up to date (last payment was April 5, 2015). The versions I was using were the CS versions that I had downloaded directly from Adobe and when I used to have any trouble or when I got a different computer I could just log into my account and then redownload them. They are no longer showing under my products, so I can't figure out what on earth is going on. The website has changed since the last time I downloaded them, so that partly could be me, but I thought they would at least be showing up under products. I contacted Adobe support and the first person I talked to on chat said "this is clearly a technical issue I am transferring you to someone better suited for this," but that's all he said. And I haven't heard from anyone since so I thought I'd make a topic and see if anyone else out there has had a similar problem.

    The versions I am using are the CS6 versions.*

  • Problems with opening CS3 doc in CS5 (stroke added, etc.)

    After importing documents to CS5 from CS3 I find that I have strokes in the text frames (some of them at least) and the page numbers lack kerning.
    http://tinypic.com/r/2mzfy1c/7
    No stroke exists in the text frames belonging to the master pages, nor did reapplying the master page spread change the stroke to zero.
    Suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Yes, I only opened it in CS5. This problem did not exist in CS3.It is not constant against all files and all pages.
    I have uploaded a bare bones version of the indd file here:

  • Trouble with Illustrator CS5 Trial Installation on Mac

    Hi Everyone,
    I am trying to install the trial version of Illustrator CS5. I am using the Adobe Download Assistant and it has produced an error.
    The error is number 4960 and it says that the disk image for Illustrator could not be opened.
    If anyone could help me with this, that would be great!
    Thanks.

    Nickyonmac111 error 4960 is a Mac OS error indicating your DMG file is corrupted.  I would recommend you remove the Adobe Download Assistant and try the download again.  You might also want to try saving to a different location when prompted.

  • Troubles with opening attachments when user have restristed priviledge to run executable code only from ProgramFiles and Windows folders.

    I try to restrict users from executing any potentialy dangerous files. So according to Windows policies I set. Users can run any application from Program Files, Program Files (x86), Windows and all users' desktop folder. Users have no permission to write anything in this folders. When user duble clicks for example *.doc document on his desktop - document opens with MS Word just fine. But when user try to open this document from e-mail attachment directly (selecting open with MS Word, instead of saving) - he sees an error - "This action is restricted by local policy. Ask your system administrator." (not exact text).
    So I want, users able to open attachments from Thunderbird automatically, but not able to run any application or link, except Program Files, Program Files (x86), Windows and all users' desktop folder. How can I get this result?
    Thanks in advance.
    Serious Diman.
    P.S. Sorry for my bad english. It's not my native language.

    Thanks for answering.
    I found out what was happening.
    This strange "bug" affects several computers with Windows 7 Ultimate in my case.
    When you create SRP (software restriction policies) it creates two default rules for running programs: windows folder and Program Files folder. Manually I add "C:\Program Files (x86)" in unrestricted locations. BUT Windows and Program Files folder linked in default rules not directly, but through registry keys. And this part seems tricky. You CAN run executables from Program Files. You CAN run executables from Program Files (x86). But if Thunderbird or Firefox try to run MSword, or excel or writer for opening *.doc or *.odt or some other downloaded file - running from Program Files blocked by SRP.
    So to resolve this problem you just need to replace rules for undirect paths like %HKLM/software/microsoft/windows ... etc% with direct ones, such as "C:/Windows" and "C:/Program Files/". After this all works fine. Attachments and downloaded files opens automatically without problems.

  • Is anyone having trouble with Dreamweaver CS5?

    I am unable to create a new site or  manage sites. Upon save Dreamweaver tells me "WARNING: The Spry assets  folder is not inside the site. Please select a valid folder in your  local site root."
    I have created a SpryAssets folder, unistalled and reinstalled  Dreamweaver, tried just about everything including calling Adobe tech  support with no resolution (twice). Adobe has "elevated" my case (again), but I think  that means "We don't know, so go away." (Sorry, Adobe, I'm VERY frustrated  here!)
    Anybody got any ideas?

    Thanks for the help, Ben.
    I did clear the cache and the problem still exists. Then I unistalled my Dreamweaver CS5, downloaded a trial version, installed that one, but that didn't work either.
    Here are some screen captures of the dialog boxes that I am experiencing:
    This is the first warning I get when trying to establish a site.
    So then I select the SpryAssets folder in my main folder.
    Again, I get the warning.
    Then the only way out of the dialog box is to hit cancel, without establishing a site.
    I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has seen this problem and been able to solve it. It's driving me crazy.
    By the way, I am running Macintosh OS 10.5.8. Could this be the problem?

  • Troubles with opening Finder, System Preferences, and others from dock

    I am having problems with Finder, System Preferences, applications like Word, Excel, and Firefox. When I click on their icons in the dock, the menu bar appears with the name of the application and file, edit, etc. but the application does not open a window on the screen. I just see my background pic. Some of the items in the menu bar that pop down don't work. However, apps like my mail, Safari, Itunes and others work properly.
    If anyone can help me with some suggestions, that would be great!

    Hello t:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    Do those applications open from the application folder? If they do:
    Try trashing a preference file and restarting (com.apple.dock.plist).
    If that does not help, drag the icons that do not work off the dock (poof sound). Then go to the application folder and drag the appropriate icon to the dock.

  • TROUBLE WITH OPEN CURSOR

    Hi, we have an application running on 8.1.6 with 20 000 open cursors is this a really resources problem for database. Ive tried with this parameter CLOSECACHED_OPEN_CURSORS = TRUE in INIT.ORA but it doesnt work with PLSQL.
    I found problem resolves if we close session 'cause it frees all resources but i'm seeking for another option.
    Does anyone have an advice about it I appreciate it!!

    I think it's a development problem. Nobody, beside the developer knows if they are still need their open cursors.
    It's a bad habit to open cursors and don't close these cursors.
    BTW do you use bind variable in your statement.
    Regards
