Why does spellcheck suddenly freeze the program in INDD-CS6? Only happens on some characters/words.

I use CS6-INDD for Mac.  Sometimes during spellcheck everything freezes.  If I go to Force Quit I see that INDD "is not responding."  The type appears to have no odd characteristics.  Only happens sometimes.  How to stop it????

Ask in the ID forum and be more specific. We know nothing about your language settings, fonts used, paragraph styles and whatnot. It is imaginable that you are using a specific font with glyph substitution like ligatures and the spell checking can't deal with it or something like that...

  • Why does my iPhoto freeze the whole computer when editing?

    Every time I edit in iPhoto, the whole computer freezes after about a dozen adjustments of any kind. I have to manually shut down and restart as no key commands allow access to any other app or the Finder.

    Hi, Terence ~
    I'm using iPhoto '11, v. 9.1.5
    with ± 5,000 photos in current iPhoto Library
    running SnowLeopard, 10.6.8 --
    capacity: 750 GB; available 695 GB
    on my Mac mini >>>
      Model Identifier:          Macmini1,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
      Processor Speed:          1.66 GHz
      Number Of Processors:          1
      Total Number Of Cores:          2
      L2 Cache:          2 MB
      Memory:          2 GB
      Bus Speed:          667 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:          MM11.0055.B08
      SMC Version (system):          1.3f4
    The freezing has been happening for quite some time, since before I upgraded to Snow Leopard, before I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '09, before I upgraded my mac mini from a solo ore machine to a duo core with much more HD space, etc. I think it started when I first installed iPhoto '09 , but my memory fails me. I have had other events interspersed with this recurring annoyance, hoping that it would go away during one of the upgrades I mentioned. However, it persists. I have wondered about reinstalling iPhoto, but do not know if that means I will lose all my editing changes.
    I do not know about any Console messages you refer to, but perhaps I am missing something. How would I find out? I do know that I am exhausted and frustrated by this. When the editing process causes the freezing, I cannot use any of the key escapes, cannot even shut down other than manually. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for taking an interest in my dilemma.

  • Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    When you open Firefox in Safe Mode, it automatically disables your custom settings, themes, and add-ons. THOSE changes are temporary.
    However, if you click any of the boxes underneath the line, "You can make some or all of these changes permanent", and then choose "Make Changes and Restart", everything you checked will be forever changed, even when you start Firefox again in 'normal' mode. [See attached image for a preview of the Safe Mode options].
    To be clear:
    1. If you check any of the boxes but do NOT select "Make changes and restart", those things will not be changed at all in safe mode.
    2. If you select any of the boxes and you DO select "Make changes and restart", you will permanently lose any of the items you checked (bookmarks (except for backups), user preferences, etc.).
    If you performed the action in step 2 above, you will only be able to restore those things if you have a previously created back-up of your Mozilla Profiles folder (not the same as the Firefox program folder).
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does my computer freeze and curser dissapears?

    Why does my computer freeze and curser dissapears?

    I had a similar problem after upgrading to Windows 7. The problem seemed to be that there was a dialog box that opened
    that was not visible on the screen and it was blocking the print completion. Try this. Open the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences and clear the field "Rely on system fonts only, do not use document fonts." When I did that it solved my problem.
    The unseen dialog box seems to be the fault of Windows 7, in my opinion.

  • Why does pages suddenly refuse to save a document back to our server after editing?

    why does pages suddenly refuse to save a document back to our server after editing?
    and can i specify a default save-as location?

    The default save location is the one used to open the document.
    The default save_to location is the last used one.
    Both are stored in memory and written in the application's preferences file when we close it.
    It's quite easy to change the defaults in the preferences file but we must do that before opening the app and if we use an other location once the app is open, we will lost the defined default location.
    From my point of view, the best scheme is to use an Applescript to save.

  • Why does mavericks mail freeze mac while downloading new mail

    why does my mac freeze up while new emails are being downloaded ?

    Same problems here, too. It started a few days ago. A lot of users seem to have this/these problem(s). Is there still no solution to this from Apple, apart from a complete reset of the iPad? Quite embarrassing issue for Apple - the "settings" are a quite important part of a computer, and one  that shouldn't freeze....
    Other forums suggest it is an iCloud problem (which might explain that contacts does not work - and the calendar without sync is meaningless anyway). After MobileMe, with which many users had similar problems, had to be replaced by iCloud, maybe iCloud  has to be replaced, too. MobileMe, iCloud, next is YouLoose, maybe. Hopefully Apple looks at its own wbsite and works on solutions.

  • Why does my iTunes freeze up?

    Why does my iTunes freeze up every time it is opened.  It only operates for about 10 -15 seconds and then freezes.  I've tried installing it again several times, but with no different results.  Can anyone give me something to try?  Have I downloaded some program that I shouldn't have?  Thank you for any suggestions that you can give me.

  • TS3367 why does my screen freeze while using face time?

    Why does my screen freeze on my iphone 4 while using face time? I am connected to wi-fi and internet is working fine.

    Is your iPhone storage capacity full or close to it?
    Try a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release. A reset is similar to computer restart.

  • Why have I suddenly lost the ability to listen to I-tunes radio?

    Why Have I suddenly lost the ability to use tunes Radio?  If I click on Music now   It does not give me teh option for radio any more.

    itune radio can play only in selected region ( Like USA) so make sure that your itune account is set to USA. If you change store to some place else that are not in the list, you are lost the ability to access to itune radio.

  • WHY DOES MY NETFLIX  FREEZE ON MY APPLETV??

    WHY DOES MY NETFLIX FREEZE ON MY APPLE TV?

    Tested my appleTV2 on Comcast 26mbps down = no hiccups or freezes
    Tested on Time Warner NYC 10Mbps down  = pauses, hiccups, freezes (on Netflix and iTunes rentals)
    Therefore I assume it is the service provider, not Netflix
    One other problem: it takes a very long time to connect to iTunes for Podcasts (spinning wheel) on both Comcast and Time Warner - Therefore I believe that is Apple Server delay.

  • Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out now, rather than actually scroll?

    Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out rather than actually, um, scroll? I can't find anywhere to change this function in Preferences, either.

    I had the same problem on my Windows 8 touch screen laptop.  It was driving me crazy! Every time I tried to scroll a page down, the program would zoom the page!  Made reading an ebook difficult.
    I finally found the solution:
    Under Edit select Preferences - General
    Uncheck "Make Hand Tool Use mouse-wheel zooming". 

  • Why does firefox 7 crashes the system if Quadro NVS 135M graphics driver is installed?

    Why does firefox 7 crashes the system with a Quadro NVS 135M graphics cards installed?
    It happens immediately after opening Firefox on a two screen system. You get a message saying the Graphics Driver stopped responding, but that it managed to recover, but after a while the system freezes completely. You can't even CTRL+ALT+DEL.

    I get this too on with my nVidia GTX460 card. In my case the screen goes black. It happens once every few days, and for a while I could not figure out why. I was forcing a shutdown to get the screen back.
    But I put the computer to sleep and woke it up, since that restarts the video, and this let me see what was wrong. The only error message is it reports that Firefox hung. There is nothing else in the Event logs.
    I'm running Windows 7 with all the updates from Windows Update, and my video driver is 285.62, but his also happened with the 260.26 driver.
    I imagine this is happening a lot, but people aren't able to isolate the cause.
    I'm looking for a fix, not a bypass.
