Trouble with opening large files over 4 g

I have indesign cc and today i added some pictures and my file size went from 3.9 g to 4.7 and now i cant open the file

3.9 gb usually indicates a problem withthe file, let alone 4.7.
Do you have a lot of embedded or pasted images or vector art?
Do you get an error message when you try to open the file? If not, keep waiting. I've seen files take up to 2 hours to open when they are that large (due to huge amounts of pasted vector art).
Do you have any backup you can open to fix?

  • I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made & opening as read only for the 2nd person - but allowing them to save the file.

    1) I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made.  As soon as you open the file and exit.  It prompts for a save.
    All excel versions are 15.0.4701.1002.
    Using a table.
    the functions CELL, OFFSET, TODAY, INDIRECT, NOW, INFO and RAND are not being used.
    2) Same file.   2nd person is being told they are opening the file as read only - but when they are quitting excel prompts them to save the file. 
    Everything was working fine.  I started having problems with Excel, IT wiped my version out and re-installed office. 
    File is on networked server HP - Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  
    We are all on Windows 8.1 Pro.
    I really hope someone can help - the excel expert had no answer - and passed me along to here.

    I copied the whole file and started deleting worksheets one at a time and testing it by closing it and re-opening it then closing it again – to see if it wanted to save. 
    Once all the pivot tables were deleted – the problem went away. 
    I found that some of the pivot tables had automatic refresh upon open, so this caused the excel to think data had changed. 
    It is fixed now.  By clicking on one cell of the pivot table, analyze, options, data and uncheck the 3<sup>rd</sup> square down to not automatically refresh.  NOT A NETWORK ISSUE.

  • Using Windows 8.2 and copying large files over USB 3.0 to Segate Backup Plus USB hard drive - I get the following error:-

    Hi Joe,
    Was the error gone when you turned off the Bitlocker from this drive?

  • Issue with opening .PDF files after recalling from Symantec Enterprise Vault

    Good Morning,
    I am having issues with opening PDF files that have been recalled from Symantec Enterprise Vault and some of the files are anywhere from 3-4 years old.  Some files open, while others return the error: Adobe Reader could not open filename.pdf because it is not a supported file type or might have been damaged.  It is inconsistent as to which files it occurs with.  I am not ready to believe that I have that many corrupt files out there.  I am opening them on a Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x64 desktop. Adobe 10.1.7. I have already configured the registry setting for bValidateBytesBeforeHeader that I found in another article to no avail.
    The files are on a network share, but I also tried copying them to my local desktop and still received the error.
    I have seen other posts regarding this error, but do not see a definitive solution and am hoping that in recent days someone has come up with a solution.
    Thank You
    Brian Dougherty

    Not supported file type can (but not always) mean the PDF was created with an old enough version of Acrobat, that it isn't comaptible with reader X or XI.
    Might have been damaged is pretty cut and dried in its meaning and interpretation.
    There's a known issue with Mac OS and Safari Browser "breaking" PDFs as they download, but it's not so common for Windows. Since these are files you already had, it would be even less applicable.
    You can try downloading an older version of Reader to check if it's a compatibility issue, but you'd have to uninstall the latest to do it and it'd be a lot of bother if they still don't open. It would also mean they are "broken" and cannot be repaired, that I know of.

  • Issue with opening PDF file link from Safari

    Hi Everyone,
    I got a problem with opening PDF file link from Safari 4.04. Instead of getting a normal pdf content, it shows some weird characters. Not sure it is something wrong with Adobe Reader Plugin or Safari?
    I have uploaded a screenshot of the issue in the adobe forum (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/531870). Please help!
    Many Thanks,
    John

    There's nothing wrong, except the fact that you have Adobe Reader installed. You don't need it, so get rid of it; it will only cause problems with Safari. What you're seeing is the contents of the PDF file, rather than having it displayed.
    If you want to download a PDF file, you can either Control-click on the link and choose "Download Linked File As…", or you can Option-click on the link for the file and it will be downloaded to your Download folder (usually your Desktop).
    If you want to view a PDF file in Safari, you don't need Adobe Reader; Safari is perfectly capable of doing this by itself and has been for years. Adobe Reader will only get in the way and slow everything down.

    I have a problem with opening downloaded files from the internet; zip types. Can you tell me an app to open these types of formats of files?

    It should unzip if you double-cick.
    What are you seeing happen when you do that?
    Select a .zip file in the Finder and Get Info (cmd-i). What is set for it to Open With. It should be Archive Utility.

  • Transferring large file over internet

    Hi,
    I am attempting to transfer a large file over the internet (around 8GB), and I'm not sure what the best way of doing it is.
    This file is currently located on my desktop at home, and want to get it onto my laptop here (not going to be home for another month or so, so going home to get it isn't really an option!)
    I'm suscribed to MobileMe, but the maximum upload file size for iDisk was 1GB. If there is a way around this, let me know! Another option I had was using back to my back and just copying the file over, but this will take quite a while (not a problem, as I'm expecting it to take a while however I do it!)
    Any other suggestions? So far, the best option I have is just simply copying it using Back to my Mac, but please chime in if anyone as any better ideas!
    Thanks!

  • Trouble with format of files exported from pages as .doc - when opened on a pc they have extra spaces and pages breaks inserted after each line?  Can be manually deleted, but defeats sharing purpose. advice?

    Hi all, I have trouble with the format of files exported by email as .doc from pages - when opened in MS word on a PC or other device, they have extra spaces and pages inserted after each line - can be deleted manually, but defeats sharing purpose.  Any advice?  Not the most sophisticated user.

  • Illustrator CC crashes when opening large files

    Illustrator CC crashes everytime a try to a open a file larger than 100MB, I have restarted my Mac, reinstalled Illustrator, it solves the problem for a day, but the next day is the same problem all over again. It doesn't show any message,  it only displays the pizza rainbow and won't let me perform any action.

    Turns out this only worked until I quit Illustrator and restarted it. I looked at the thread posted above about finding a crash report for the incident. However, Illustrator never actually crashes it freezes when I open this small handful of files and then I have to force quit the program. It clearly has something to do with the plugins because I have deleted the Plugin Cache file and it resolves the problem only temporarily. Is there a way to remove all of the plugins from Illustrator or find out which plugins have been installed that are compatible with the program?

  • WiFi breaks when transferring large file over LAN

    Hi guys,My WiFi mostly behaves itself, however if I try to transfer a large file (The last one was ~1GB) over the LAN (standard SMB file copy), WiFi drops out. It gets roughly 30MB through before connectivity is lost.The WiFi continues to show as connected, but I cannot even ping my router.Only disconecting and reconnecting WiFi re-establishes the connection.Any idea what's up? (My router is the black 'home hub' style. I can't find any version information in it's admin panel.) (And before someone asks, no I'm not telling you the contents of the file as it isn't relevant. With the greatest of respect, if you just ask unrelated questions to pry, please don't waste everyones time.)

    Didn't think of that, thanks. Great workaround.I'm going to call Sky, see if they have any firmware updates or other solution. Surely they wouldn't leave such a big knows issue unfixed. I'll report back with what they say. Edit:Just got off the phone from Sky technical support.This issue was first reported Nov/Dec 2014.The chap I spoke to does not know of a fix, or whether a fix is being worked on, or if a fix will ever be worked on.He has not way of contacting the development team to find out any of this information.He said firmware updates are pushed out to routers every now and again. He does not know when this is going to happen and does not have a way to notify about firmware updates installed on my router. (This terrifies me. Sky have a backdoor into my router and can install any code they wish, without even telling me what they changed/installed). There is no way to turn these auto-updates off either. Here's a key thing he did say though:He said he was not at liberty to provide my ADSL credentials, but if I chose to extract them from the router and install my own router instead, they would not have any problem with that.When I told him that this was against their TOS and they could terminate my contract for doing this, he went silent and just said "errr..." Allowing Sky, their subcontractors and anyone else they choose to install any code they wish to my router whenever they please and have free open access to my entire LAN is a total deal breaker for me. That router is getting unplugged today and I'm putting a new router on the credit card. I told tech support this. I said if they have a problem with that, let's go the legal route. I literally have a recorded call where they give me permission to install my own router.
