Which version of CS6/8.x is required to open files created by CC users?

I purchased and installed a "standalone" license of InDesign CS6 8.0 (the version installed is 8.0.2) but I can't open files created by our CC users. (version 9.1).We get a popup that the file was created in a newer version... blah blah blah. Is there a newer version of "Adobe InDesign 8.x" that will open CC/9.x files?
thanks

Well that's disappointing... Back in September, before moving a dozen of our power users to CC accounts - I was told by either reseller or Adobe that I could get individual licenses of InDesign (CS6 version) for those users that only needed that single app (InDesign) in order to collaborate with everyone else. (I don't consider saving as idml as collaborating.) I'm pretty sure I was told that CC files could be opened by CS6.

    After Effects CS6 connot open files created with CC 12.1 Mac version. Is there an update?
    I am running Windows 7 Pro and Adobe CS6 Suite with all updates

    You are never able to open projects from one version of After Effects in an earlier version. This has always been the case.
    You can use the command File > Save As > Save A Copy As CS6 to save a version of the project from After Effects CC (12) that can be opened in After Effects CS6 (11).

    Logic Pro 9 will not open willnot open files created in earlier versions advising that attempts should be mad using Logic pro 7.  My Mac Pro wil not open this version of Logic "because PowerPC applkcations are no longer supported."  Any help would be very much appreciated since I need to have books reprinted.

    Hi
    I think that the PPC installer can be worked around (?):
    Make disk images of the Install Disks, mount them all, then use Pacifist to run the Install process
    Looks like it should work here..

  • Illustrator CS6 does not store the last opened files

    I need Help,
    Illustrator CS6 does not store the last opened files.

    THat indicates a permissions issue on your preferences file and/ or your files are stored on some external or network device that doesn't use persistent file paths. Look into that.

  • Can Photoshop CS5.1 open files created/saved in CS6?

    I work in a collaborative environment. I've upgraded to CS6, but those i work with are working in photoshop cs5.1. Will they have problems opening files i create or save in CS6?

    I don't know that I can offer a better long answer, nor do I know of any published list of things you can save in a Photoshop CS6 document that won't open properly in an earlier version.  I have tried a few things myself, like creating shapes, text, etc. and found that Photoshop CS5 sees them all just fine.  But it's not hard to think of things that wouldn't work, such as putting a brand new filter as a smart filter in a document.
    Just using the cool new features would not necessarily net you incompatibility.  For example, doing a Content Aware Move or one of the new blurs just manipulate pixels, and at the end of the day the layer will just have pixels on it, which every version of Photoshop has known about all along. 
    Things like recording brush strokes in an action and trying to run the action on an earlier Photoshop would yield incompatibility, because older versions wouldn't know how to play such brush strokes back.
    There is a "Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility" setting in the File Handling preferences, and the implication is that others will always be at the very least able to open a flattened version of the document, but I'm not sure that covers every case of individual incompatibility between recent versions of Photoshop.  I've never had occasion to test it out thoroughly. 
    Maybe one of the Adobe people can speak to this in more detail.
    Do you still have a copy of Photoshop CS5 installed?  If so, and you're not sure about whether your PSD file is going to be compatible, you could of course try it yourself to be sure.

  • How to change to PS CS6 is not default program to open files.

    I have PSCS4 and trial PSCS6. All my RAW and PSD files open by CS6 by default now. I want PS CS4 open PSD and RAW by default, as it used to, since CS6 is only trial.
    I have Mac Pro, OS X 10.7.4. (Lion)
    I tried to change it this way:
    File - Get info- Open with- change to CS4 - change all (use this application to open all documents like this one). It won't allow me, falls back to PS CS6.
    I can open files by right clicking and chose PSCS4, (indicated as Adobe Photoshop CS4.app (11.0.2(11.0.2x20100519 [20100519.r.592 2010/05/19:02:00:00:00 cutoff; r branch]))
    That arm long name for CS4 appeared after I installed CS6.
    Is there any way to do this on Mac? I cannot find anyplace file and program associations.
    Thanks for help,
    Rose

    Thank you, Dean,
    I tried the RCDefaultApp. It looks great and there is so much what can be changed, from the file extentions ends, program defaults and file types. I guess it works great. ... for other apps.
    But:
    Adobe PS CS6 keeps all files and extentions assigned and grayed out, unaccessible to change or uncheck.
    Therefore when extentions are assigned as default to anoter program or app, nothing happens. It won't allow to chose another program to open it under files tab too.
    It all falls back where it was before, same like with get info panel.
    PS CS6 is grabby program. PS CS4 Bridge now opens CS6 Photoshop, automatically, unless you tell it not to, chose right click CS4, which is pain in the neck, and will be even bigger after the trial expires. I may buy CS6, but not within a month. The period between is going to be troublesome, and making me not want to see CS6 at all, ever. I just hope after I uninstall it it will all fall back to CS4 defaults.
    Thabnks again for your reply.

  • Indesing updated to latest version (10.0) but can't open file created yesterday.

    Created a file yesterday with Indesign. Wanted to continue work today but Indesign requests to update to 10.0. I updated allready I even created this file with this version with this edition of Indesign but can't open it anyway.
    - Alert shown is: Cannot open "[documentname]" because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0). You must use that version or later to open the file. To then enable it to be opened in this version, choose Save As InDesign CS4 or later, or export to IDML. -
    So to be clear; I created this document in this version of Indesign and it just doesn't open anymore although all possible updates are performed.
    Am really in need of some help since it is about two documents and I just lost work like this...
    Kind regards,
    Linda

    Aaaaaaahhhhh....FOUND IT!! The trick is to NOT use the alias-thumb in the dock, but to actually start up in the apps-folder where the Adobe Indesign 2014 edition is installed next to the 'old' edition.
    Wow. Not sure to feel stupid or to be angry... pffff...
    Back to work I say! (The best remedy...)

  • Which version of Adobe Acrobat is needed to read .pdf files on the iPhone?

    I have Blackbaud's iBBDemo4.exe iPhone simulator for Windows XP. I'm trying to view/read various .pdf files with it. I received an error message that says, "file uses a new format that is not supported by the current version of Acrobat." Does anyone know which Acrobat version is needed for .pdf files on the iPhone and/or iPhone simualtor?

    The iPhone has it's own built in PDF reader, and doesn't need Adobe Reader. So if your simulator software isn't working then I suggest you contact Blackbaud's support. Besides, Adobe doesn't make an iPhone version of Reader.

  • Photoshop CS6 Will not open files\create new\function properly

    Hello,
    I have a licensed Photoshop CS6 installed on Windows 8.1 64bit.
    This morning the software has started to have the following issue:
    Photoshop will not create any new files (With the exclusion of spamming CTRL+N I have managed to open a new project)
    Photoshop will not load an existing file through its panel of any format (double click on file yet nothing happens)
    While trying to use any tool I have noticed that some of the clicks (Mouse or Keyboard) do not go through - some of them are being generated and some are not.
    Sometimes Photoshop will not respond to clicks - if I drag a window other it forcing explorer to refresh the desktop the changes are being shown - otherwise Photoshop will remain stuck
    After browsing the web for hours I have noticed a few people had similar issues as I have yet non of the steps which helped them to solve this issue have done any good to me.
    I have taken the following steps:
    Turned off "Use Graphic Processor"
    Re-booted my computer
    Re-installed Photoshop
    Updated my graphic card's drivers
    I have read another thread talking about some Nvidia cards which encounter issue with drivers yet I'm using an Radeon card - My PC spec:
    Intel i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz
    8GB RAM
    ATI Radeon R7 200
    Windows 8.1
    I have made the following video which describes the issues: (The black screen is me popping ALT+CTRL+DEL)

    Thank you in advance!

    We've heard of a few examples of this - but they always seem to come down to other applications interfering with UI in Photoshop, malware, or needing to reinstall the OS.
    There have only been a handful of reports, and we haven't been able to isolate the cause - but we know that it is something outside of Photoshop.  Sometimes it works shortly after rebooting the system, but then fails until the system is rebooted again (very strong evidence that the cause is outside of Photoshop).  A few people have reported that after reinstalling the OS, the problem went away.

  • How to make a category required for all files created within a folder

    I've defined a category. It has attributes which have been flagged as required.
    When I view the properies of a particular workspace (library), the category is shown as available to the workspace. However, the category is not shown as required. And the "required" checkbox is not clickable.
    So .. how, from the OCS DHTML applet, do I make a particular category a required category for all files in a folder?

    Perhaps the Category Attribute is not marked as "configurable" when it was created. You can check this by "switching into Admin Mode" and drilling down the Categories using "Manage Categories" link. Check if the category attribute is marked as configurable or not.

  • Opening files created in a newer version of Illustrator

    I use illustrator CS version 11, is there a way to open illustrator files saved and created in a newer version of illustrator?

    If you open it with Acrobat Pro, it will open as if it were a PDF. Then just go to File > Export > PostScript > Encapsulated PostScript.  As soon as you choose "Encapsulated PostScript," you will be offered a chance to Save As an .eps file. If you save it in the same file you stored or received it in, it will override the original .eps file as an older version that you can use.  Note that if the original file was an .ai document, it will still save it as an .eps, then you would just use your older Illustrator to save THAT file to override the original .ai document. 
    Some .eps files may not export perfectly, especially if whomever created it used a lot of the most recent tools on it, but most of them will.  Good luck!

  • Permission required to open files

    Having problems opening some JPEG files in iPhoto - message coming up that I need permission to open, but they're all my own files. Not sure if they're the same ones, but have copied a number over from a duplicate user ID, and have now deleted the user ID as I now have everything in the right place to organise...or So I thought. Caption is 'You do not have permission to open the document.....etc' 'Contact the computer or network administrator for assistance'....but I am the adminstrator. Anyone have any ideas how to get round this ? Thanks

    Select the folder containing them in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, open the Sharing & Permissions section, unlock it, give yourself read and write access, click the menu with the gear, and apply the settings to the enclosed items.

  • Image files created by CS6 not viewable in iOS devices

    Hello,
    This is kind of a strange one.
    I'll start off with what I am running:
    My computer - Late 2013 MacBook Pro (Retina) running Yosemite (10.10.1)
    My Photoshop - CS6 (13.0.6 x64)
    And now the issues:
    I am not able to view any emailed image files, on any of my iOS devices (using the default mail app) that were created by CS6 on my laptop.
    As a test, I had someone in my office create a .jpg using their Photoshop, had them email it to me, and I was able to view it on my iPhone using the default mail app.
    So, something in particular with my installed version of CS6 is doing something strange when outputting files that are making them not viewable by the default iOS mail app.
    I work in film, and often have to email images to clients (which many of them are using iPhones), so having the images not viewable is a big issue for me.
    Has anyone experience anything like this, or perhaps know what may be causing this?
    Thanks so much for your input,
    Greg

    This has somewhat been resolved.  This is actually an Outlook issue, Outlook is doing something strange to the image file when emailing that is causing the problem.
    Ugh, sorry for the post.
