Although this sohould be asked and answered in InDesign/CS5 forum. it's not really an issue of InDesign. Its an issue of the Mac operation system
close up and quit everything back to finder.
Next locate a bunch of indd cs4 documents.
highlight them has to be a minium of 5.
now from finder go to file > Get summary Info.
next locate button showing what applications opens the files.
click on button and choose InDesign CS5.
now under tha button click on Change All ... and click Okay.
Now all your indesign files will open with the indd CS5 application.
if you would rather just open an individual file if you have a 2 button mouse
Click the right mouse button on the desired file.
hold until context menu pops up click and hold on open with...
a new menu gets built of desired applications
choose InDesign CS5 and it will open.
This allows a given file to open with desired application but doesn't change file types.

Don't know which email host you are using, but if this is a POP account, you can't do it. If IMAP, then deleting one email should delete it on all other devices.

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

If you need a GUI to change the owner of a file or files, try BatChMod
Download BatChmod 1.51
Works on 10.5 and 10.6
http://www.macchampion.com/arbysoft/BatchMod/Download.html
Here are similar teminal commands:
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
#Your current user is:
echo $USER
#Let's assume myuser
#Or, you can use the id command.
id
#Remember, this will be the correct userid. You need to find the bad userid.
#You need to look on one of your bad files. To find out your UID and GID do:
cd ~
ls -ln
ls -l
ls -ln filename-of-bad-file
Now, compare the output and write down what you find.
You best use the numeric value of the old userid. In this case it is 501. Before you do a command that will change files, you should list all the files to be changed.   From an administrator account, enter the following command:
sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec ls -l {} \;
# the system will ask for your log on password. Type it in. The letters will not appear on the screen. Then, press the enter key.
# adding a -x before the / limits the search to the current file system which will be your startup partition.
# To stop the display press control-c ( hold down the control key then press c )
mac $ sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec ls -l {} \;
-rwxr-xr-x   1 na unknown 0 Oct 23 2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks 6.app/AppleWorks 6
-rwxr-xr-x   1 na unknown 0 Oct 23 2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks 6.app/Contents/MacOS/AppleWorks Essentials
-rwxr-xr-x   1 na unknown 0 Oct 23 2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks 6.app/Contents/MacOS/Clippings
-rwxr-xr-x   1 na unknown 0 Oct 23 2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks
^C
This command will change the ownership of a file.
Any file or folder with a userid of 501 is changed to 1000. Your numbers will differ.
sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 1000 {} \;
#And you need to do this from an administrator id.
More examples:
sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 5464 {} \;
sudo find -x / -group 20 -exec chgrp 211 {} \;
#combined change of uid & gid
sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 5464:211 {} \;
Hope this helps a little.

How can i change the settings to have a prompt massage when I want to download a duplicate file

When I download a file, if a same file name already exists in the same download folder, firefox downloads the file and renames it by adding numeric (1) to the file name. I want the firebox to give me a prompt when same file already exist, rather than automatically renaming it by adding suffix (1)

Hi, I lost some of my keynote documents during manage storage in icloud. How can i recover these documents in icloud so I can back it up to my ios devices? Because they were erased fro icloud itself! Thanks

How can I retrieve the lost data that I erase it accidentally from my icloud during manage storage of icloud?

I'm not sure you can unless you have a Mac with a back up.
Whilst it won't help you recover documents that have already become corrupt, can I suggest you get into the habit of backing up your documents in the cloud regularly.
