Which InDesign CS6 Extensions must I have loaded, as a minimum ...

Hi, I'm trying to speed up my ever slowing Mac and InDesign, I have removed all instances of fonts that I no longer need and now would like to turn off all the unnecessary ID CS6 extensions, so that I can run it at a bare minimum ... which extensions do I need to keep loaded to do this? Obviously I need to be able to Open, Save, Export initially, but then I can turn them on one by one to see which ones slow it down the most.
Cheers.

Go to Help > Manage Extension.
Every Extension without a lock you can turn off.

InDesign CS6 Extension and JSON

Hi everybody
I'm just building up an InDesign CS6 Extension and would like to use JSON. JSON should be native with Flash-Players > version 11 but if I set the Flex Compiler -> Flash Player Options to version 11.0.0 the JSON-commands still won't be recognized (I get an error while using JSON.stringify() ). I'm using the Extension Builder 4.5 SDK. Are there any options I din't set yet or is it not possible to connect to JSON natively with Extension Builder 4.5 SDK?
Thanks for any information
best Richard

I would suggest to use the JSON library which is part of as3corelib:

How can I deploy a standardized set of CS6 extensions to all users?

Is there a single file or set of files I can distribute to all users which will give them a standardized set of CS6 extensions? I have over 100 users using InCopy CS6 and InDesign CS6 and want to make sure they all have the same extension configuration.

Perhaps I should have explained myself more clearly. I want to be able to define an extension set (with a mix of Adobe and 3rd party extensions) and distribute that set to all of my users - without them having to take any steps to import the set, make it active, etc. I'd like to be able to just have them log in and have the extension set I have distributed to them. I've tried exporting a set, distributing it to a test workstation, then importing it via a script (as defined in "Adobe Extension Manager help and tutorials") but the import step doesn't seem to work. No error, it just doesn't import the set.
So I was wondering - can I package up my extension manager files ("/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6" and "/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe.ExMan") and deploy those to users?
I am looking for a solution that will allow me to deliver the extension set I define to over 100 users without user interaction. Is there a way?

Hebrew Fonts Mac Indesign CS6

Hey there!
I'm having problems with my Hebrew fonts and need help. I have Indesign CS6 for Mac and have downloaded the Hebrew Supported version. I have set up my document so that paragraph and character reflect the need for Hebrew. I can use the standard Hebrew system fonts, however I have loads of great Hebrew fonts which are recognised by Font Book but not in Indesign. The weird thing is that on CS4 these fonts were recognised (however at that time I didn't have Hebrew support so ended up typing, letter for letter, backwards to get the text I needed.
Can you give me some indication as to why I am unable to use these fonts? When I try to use them I get this warning:

The warning sounds like it indicates that the font you want to use might not be suitable for Unicode Hebrew. Are they perhaps in some legacy encoding?
In any case, you should also search/ask in the forums devoted entirely to the problems of Adobe products, if you have not done so already:

InDesign CS6 from CS3 plug-in issue?

Our InDesign CS3 files have the SBIndexPro plug-in that was required to generate an accurate index in InDesign CS3, which InDesign CS6 doesn't recognize because it's a third-party plug-in (and CS6 doesn't have it or require it). So if we open CS3 files in CS6, we get an error message that the SBIndexPro plugin is missing and book functions (exporting book to PDF, packaging the book, updating page numbering, generating TOC, generating an index) are all disabled because of it.
The work-around we've found from forums online is to open the files in InDesign CS3, export each file to an INX (InDesign Interchange) file, open the files in CS6 and fix elements in the master pages (running headers shifted and have to be moved back into place), relink any missing images, save as a CS6 InDesign file.
Is there any simpler way we can get our files updated from InDesign CS3 to CS6 without this plug-in tripping us up? We can see how to disable the plug-in in InDesign CS3 but the files still say they're missing the plug-in when opened in InDesign CS6.
A prompt response and any help is appreciated!

You could open it in CS6 and export it to IDML but besides that, you've
covered the only two ways I know.

Cannot handle the request because a modal dialog or alert is active in indesign CS6, C#

Hello,
I'm having bunch of indesign CS6 files. I have written piece of code in C# which opens indesign files & exports those files to xml & pdf. If I run the exe, it works properly. But when I schedule it via task scheduler (runs at point of time without
human intervention), it throws an error "Cannot handle the request because a modal dialog or alert is active" which results in failure of my process. This error keeps me annoying. So how to over come this error?
Any help would be grateful. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
But your issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses the usage issue of Visual Studio IDE such as
WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
Because your issue is involved to InDesign CS6 which is third-party, we don’t support it, so I will move it to Off-topic forum.

Photoshop images with spot channels in Indesign CS6 (layout question)

I've got an Indesign CS6 layout that will have a spot varnish when it goes to press. Right now I've got a layout with psd files that have spot channels in them that will be used for the spot varnish.
My question is, in Indesign when I'm laying this out should I have one layer with all the psd artwork (with no spot channels) and then a layer on top of that with the psd files with the psd layers turned off with the spot channel showing? I want to make this easy to print in the office so by doing it this way I could just turn the spot layer off and print.
Will this work for the printer?
layer 1 psd files with no spot channels
layer 2 psd files with photoshop layers turned off with the spot channel showing

Besides the obvious extra work of tracking 2 images, there would be potential problems if the images needs to be scaled and moved, and you would have to assume people downstream would know what's going on—should the layer be on or off?
I would double check with the current printer—they should know the only way to view a spot is via Sep or Output preview by turning CMYK off—magenta could just as easily be process as spot.
Take a closer look at the Alias method. Here it is with your magenta defined SPOT VARNISH.
With SPOT VARNISH set as No Alias in Ink Manager and with Overprint turned on:
And with an additional spot color defined as white named CLEAR VARNISH. When you need to print in house alias SPOT VARNISH to CLEAR VARNISH and check Simulate Overprint in the Print dialog. You can get to Ink Manger via the Print>Output dialog or Swatches panel:
All you have to do is delete the CLEAR VARNISH before sending the job to the printer or exporting

Update of links in Indesign CS6 when changing asset via drive

Hi,
i am having an issue regarding the integration of Adobe AEM with InDesign CS6 via Drive:
I have a indd document that has a link to an image, both are stored on a Adobe AEM 5.6.1 server and accessed via Adobe Drive 5.0.2.
Now i tested the use case that the asset is changed and replaced on the AEM instance. I expect that InDesign tells me that the link has updated when I am opening the file the next time and the new asset is shown.
Unfortunatly this expectation occurs very unreliably and I managed to update the image only a few times.
However, if i link to an image on my local hard drive and i change it, InDesign reacts immediatly. So i think that Adobe Drive is the responsible part.
So my question is: does anyone have the same experience when integrating InDesign with AEM via Drive and does anyone know a best practise to reliably update images when the target of a link has changed?
Best regards,
Holger

While writing I made a mistake... It is true I could become aware of the Scorpio incompatibility.
I also tried the same identical procedure with a Seagate one. This disk and the same procedure was performed by some people I know on many MacBookPro Mid-2010 and everything was OK.
We do not understand why this problenm occurs.
Furthermore, If I installed the system on the broken HDD (that works, but sometimes it fails so badly and makes the system experience kernel panic) I could boot from it.
I guess it is because of the **** Apple FIrmware written on the label.
Is it possible that I cannot manage to boot from my new HDD because it has not a "special" feature on it that makes it compatible with apple??? Why making things so **** difficult my god a closer world like Apple one is impossible to imagine.
However Shootist007 thanks for your message, but given what I said I do not think is a cable problem.

InDesign CS6 crashing constantly - why?

Since updating to Mavericks, my daily crashes whilst using InDesign CS6 (on an iMac) have escalated to a ridiculous degree and it doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing at the time. Have Googled this issue again and again, tried a plethora of suggested fixes from a variety of official / unofficial sites, trashed any suspect fonts, trashed ID prefs repeatedly, run diagnostics, and, after using this program since InDesign CS1, I'm over it!
Every time ID crashes, I need to reset all preferences (that aren't included in the saved presets and workspaces) and this equates to about 5+ times a work-day – I'm sure others are having a similar or worse time with it – but it's a huge waste of productive time and difficult to explain (when you don't know why it's happening) to (non-creative) supervisors.
I do not understand why Adobe is so reluctant to release any suggested fixes (that don't require a PHD in IT just to comprehend) and dragging its butt on addressing this MAJOR PROBLEM. Please don't give me a page of tech-speak – I'm a designer, not a scientist – but all suggested fixes will be considered!

The first thing I would do is remove all non-adobe plugins (do you use a font manager auto-activation plugin?) and turn off your browser.

Adobe CS6 extension Manager update

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) installed Yosemite 10.10 getting message to update Adobe CS6 Extension Manager (now have 6.0.0.412) but am unable to find upgrade that works. Keep getting Error code U44M1P7. Need to find update that is compatible with my set-up.
infinite too

1. Please download the EM 6.0.2 patch installer from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and run it manually to update EM.
2. If it doesn't work, please follow the instructions at http://forums.adobe.com/message/4431136#4431136 to generate log file. The log file name will not be the same as that in the instructions. It would be "Adobe Extension Manager CS6 6.0.2 08-14-2012.log.gz" or similar.

PC crash... getinng back an InDesign CS6 version, which was an upgrade from a CS3 product... looks like the serial number I have is for the initial CS3

I had InDesign CS3... which I upgraded in 2012 to CS6... two days ago my PC crashed... and I need to reload InDesign... I downloaded from Adobe.com InDesign CS6... but when entering my serial number, I got a message saying that my serial n° is valid but that there is no eligible product on my PC... I suspect that my serial n° is related to the initial C3 version I had bought... I guess that I could download CS3 from Adobe.com... and use my serial number... but how I do get back my CS6 upgrade? Thanks a million for any hlep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, here is the situation:
* I am an Adobe customer
* I bought in 2008 CSInDesign CS3 and I have the serial n° [removed by moderator] in my Adobe account (shows as Adobe InDesign, version = CS3, platform = Win)
* In 2012, I upgraded my CS3 to CS6 and I have a serial n° [removed by moderator] for that in my Adobe account (shows as Adobe InDesign, version = 8.0, platform = Win)
After my PC crash, I downloaded InDesign CS6 and use my serial n° of 2012. It doesn't work, as it says my product is not eligible.
So, here is where I stand now...
* I downloaded CS3 and used my serial n° for InDesign CS3. It works. I now have CS3 on my PC
* How do I get back my 'upgrade from CS3 to CS6?
* I have the serial number for that upgrage and I guess I need to download an "upgrade" file somewhere from Adobe. But I cannot find it, I found pages with upgrades, but there are so many different files, I do not have a clue which one to use;
This is now my key question... can someone give me the link to access the file(s) I have to download to upgrade my InDesign CS3 version to InDesign CS6
