Will CS6 be able to open CC files?

I currently use CS6 and don't want to be forced into the subscription based CC but some customers have already moved to CC. Will there come a time when CS6 will not be able to open CC files? I have gotten a couple of Illustrator .ai files telling me they have been created with a newer version but they still opened although there was an eps that wouldn't.

You can open files in CC from CS6 and earlier.
Due to updates to the text engines you might notice a text reflow - note that text won't reflow until it's interacted with.

Will I be able to open the DNG files in LR with the edits preserved? Will I be able to open the PSD files in LR with the edits preserved? Any import/catalog etc issues between PSE10 and LR?

Lightroom has no problem reading DNG files. Whether the edits you have done to the DNGs you have originally edited in Photoshop Elements 10 I'm not sure. ACR edits made to DNGs are saved in the DNG file itself, as apposed to a XMP sidecar file, so LR should see those edits. At the worst you will get an exclamation mark in the upper right hand corner of the imported DNGs and clicking on that exclamation mark you will get a dialog box asking you to either import settings from disk or overwrite settings. you would select import settings from disk.

AFAIK, this is beyond the capabilities of FCPX/Compressor. This company makes a plug-in, which I have to say I have no experience with. Here is a thread that may give you some other ideas. Good luck.

When I upgrade to iWork '09 will I be able to open my previous .pages files

YsDa have book manuscripts that I want to be able to work on using my iPad which required iWork '09 since none of my exports from version 1.0.2 was not good enough. So I sort of went into panic mode because the DVD drive in my old PowerBook is sort of wonky and I can't upgrade my so beyond 10.4.11 and now what? But as luck would have it I found a new iWork '09 on eBay (the slightest scratch would not allow an install on my persnickety computer) and it was cheap too! It should be here in a couple of days. So now I worry..
Will I be able to open my old pages files up with the new version??? I have several completed books now up on amazon that I would love in the iBooks store, so I need to be able to open those files. And I have two unpublished manuscripts that I would die a thousand deaths over if I cannot open them ever again.
Has anyone ever run into an opening crisis following an upgrade???

I currently disagree with your suggestion not to write a large document in Pages. At least, so far, with my version 1.0.2! My first book was 8x10 and 440 pages long with 27 full page images. No problems there. The trilogy books are each 6x9 and the shortest is 432 with the largest 500 pages. Again, no problems. Not even with exporting to a pdf file for CreateSpace. And with the one book that was 440 pages long, there were over 100 pages of index. Then when I wanted to create a Kindle book with that index cross-referenced AND entirely clickable, there were thousandSSSSSS of links that I created in Pages. Pages being the ONLY app that could handle the sheer volume of that task. I was impressed. I'm still impressed.
My problem is that my computer...a PowerBook 13" that is was only able to have a grand total of 768 MB of RAM (I know...it's laughable...but that is the way it rolls at top speed). I tried to install more but it wouldn't accept it, being that 1000MB of RAM was it's max and the one chip was soldiered in and I couldn't get it above 768MB. So that's my world. It's limited. And yet, my old Pages and this old computer has done AMAZING things. Actually, amazing,is an understatement.
When I do write, I put placeholders when an image might need to go. The trilogy has an image as a decoration at each chapter. So there are 22 of those in each book too. I originally used low res images to hold that place, but I have one all ready to publish and it has everything in it that it needs and it opens fine.
What I would NOT do is create a gigantic color picture book. I would definitely limit my images. Not only for the sake of being able to open the file, but because it would be too expensive to publish something via CreateSpace in color.
I have tried Libre Office. I was not impressed. Same with Scrivener. Pages has been outperforming them both on all counts. So far. After I try the '09 version, I'll make another assessment of my needs vs software. And I will continue to pray that my little PowerBook will keep running (so far, so good). Even if it's only to use Pages that hasn't been dumbed down and my Photoshop, because it will be a blizzard in you-know-where before I pay Adobe for Photoshop by the month. That just will not happen.
When push does finally come to shove, I will figure out what I'll do then. I'm not even sure I would buy another Mac. There have been too many changes that I don't particularly like enough to pay so much for only to despise. I have always loved Macs because they were Artist friendly. There was so much that could be accomplished using one. They have been worth the expense just to be able to make dreams visible. But now, it seems that the power of the computer is being reduced to that of a cell phone and a tablet and that is just not going in the right direction at all. I am hoping that all changes. Soon.
I've been setting money aside for a new Mac. As the money has accumulated, the Mac's have changed. Not to be what I had wanted though. I am hoping by the time I drop the last dime in the pink piggy there will be a machine that is right for my eclectic purposes. If not, I'll spend a small portion of it on a big PC and spend the rest of it on a cruise.
Thank you all for answering my questions.
Peace.
And say a little prayer that Mac doesn't obliterate the specific needs of artists/musicians/movie makers/writers/animators/and all the others who need more than the bare bones basics to keep us happy.

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to seek your assistance. We're using and Adobe InDesign CS6. The XMedia UI Plugin for it, will it allow you to open .xml files in InDesign or that plugin is just used for Importing XML? Thanks in advance.

Last time I updated pages I lost features I liked and was unable to open some pages files. Now I see the features I liked are back but I have a lot more files to worry about. Will I be able to open files created in 5.2 if I upgrade to 5.5.3?

Within reason, Pages v5.2 documents are forwards compatible with Pages v5.5.3. Apple introduced the single file format document as a default with Pages v5.5.3 which is not backwards compatible with Pages v5 on Mavericks.
However, they also provided a File > Advanced > Change File Type > {Single File, Package} menu that allows you to change the current Pages v5.5.3 document into the backwards compatible Package type document. You would follow this transformation with a File > Save operation to complete it.

When will we be able to read NEF files from a NIKON 5200?

Just got a Nikon D5200. Photoshop and Bridge cannot read NEF files from this camera. It worked fine with my D3100 camera. When will we be able to read NEF files from a NIKON 5200?

Welcome to the forum!
As often, we cannot give a simple answer without more informations: what version of Photoshop and Bridge are you talking about?
The rule of thumb is to update Camera Raw to the latests version compatible with Photoshop, and if it does not work, to download the last version of the DNG converter and use it on the files to convert them to DNG that can be opened in the older versions of Camera Raw and other raw converters.
Normally, to update go to Help>Updates...
According to http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.htmlhe first version of Camera Raw that can open the NEF from the 5200 is Camera Raw 7.3, that works with Photoshop CS6. If you version of Photoshop is older, you'll need to use the DNG converter 7.4:
(but, since you don't state what operating system you are using, here are the links for both versions:

Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac) won't open .arw files from my Sony RX100. How do I get and install the right version of Camera Raw?

Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac) won't open .arw files from my Sony RX100. I was told to update Camera Raw to at least 7.2. I tried to download this but got a DNG Converter instead. Where is Camera Raw? (it does not show up in a search of my hard drive. There is a folder of camera profiles but no extension or plug-in with this name). How do I find out what version I have already? How do I get the correct version? . . . OR . . . is it the case that Bridge will never open Sony raw files directly and I will have to do a separate conversion process every time I want to use a raw file??. Can someone explain this?
Thanks.

How to update Camera Raw

I'm not able to open PDF files in Adobe Reader XI.

I recently updated to Adobe Reader XI and now I can't open any of my PDF documents or PDF e-mail attachments. When I click on a document I now get a window that asks if I want to allow this file to open. I click yes and get a monstrousity the likes I've never seen. It blacks out my screen for a couple seconds and then I get a mixture of my desktop, task bar, and a window wanting to know if I want to open this with Protected Mode disabled. It only fills 3/4 of the screen, the items all all blown-up in size, and are distorted. In playing with this I have gotten notes that I have an "Incompatable Application" and "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDS Server". On occasion I will get an Adobe Reader screen that is completely greyed out with no content in it and after a couple of seconds it goes off. Other times I got the window about Protected Mode and I've clicked on to disable it but that doesn't work either. I removed Adobe Reader XI and re-installed Adobe Reader X and I still have the same problem which I did not have before. I 'm running Windows 7 Professional and have McAfee anti-virus, which I have disbled on one occasion during download and that I still had the same problem. I went to program files to find the End User License Agreement and try to see if I needed to click on 'Accept" but it tells me the file does not exist. I even tried using System Restore to take me back to before I did the upgrade to Adobe Reader XI and I still have this problem. I'm at the end of my knowledge level and because these files are needed in my business I'm only able to operate at about 50%.

I am not able to open my file! Captivate 5

I don’t know who else to send this to right now, but I have been working on a project that is DUE. I am not sure why, but I am not able to open the file. Please help me are direct me to someone that can.
Here's the error message received:
Adobe Captivate could not open, "file name" Ensure that:
File is not open already
File is not damaged
The hard disk has enough space
Close all windows
I need this file open asap.
And yes...I cleared the Cache

Hello,
This is by design: I failed to explain well. The file exists as long as the file is open, sort of protection that it is not changed by someone else. It will disappear when you close the file. But the first error message at your originial question pointed perhaps to the fact that the file was not closed in a normal way, hence the lock file was perhaps still there. If you deleted the lock file you could have opened the file again, it was no longer protected. Hope my explanation is now a bit clear?

Not able to open data file in a rule file

Hi,
We have a rule file which has 140 columns. We are trying to add two new columns at the end (i.e. 141 & 142). We have added those columns in input text file and opened that text file in rule file. So automatically two columns are added at the end of rule file. Mapping is done properly. After that we saved that rule file.
But next time when we opened that rule file and clicked "Open data file" option nothing is happening. We are not able to open data file in that rule file. But that rule file is working fine when we are running it.
Can you please give any hint why it is not working?
Thanks.

Just a thought about your data file -- maybe 142 columns is too much? Yes, I know, if this is loading to a BSO database, and the columns represent a dense dimension, you are super duper efficient, but is the game worth the candle?
What happens if you drop one of the members? Mark the column as Ignore During Data Load? Several columns? And then you need to add in new ones? KABOOM!
FWIW, to keep the process as flexible and maintenance free as possible, I make every record one data value if I have any say in the matter. Yes, it is not efficient. But at least I don't get calls at o-dark-thirty telling me my process blew up and I need to fix it right away.
NB -- I suppose these are two extremes and the right answer is somewhere in middle, but I will note that you likely won't have issues with reading and writing a data load rule with my approach.

When will we be able to open and edit PDF documents in Indesign?

Hi
It would be nice if Indesign could open PDF files.
When will this happen (without a plugin)?
Today I need to open the files in Illustrator. The customer prefers to use Indesign, so even though Indesign can export pdf documents I will have to tell the customer and the program can not open pdf files. This I find really weird.
Hopefully opening and editing pdf files in Indesign will happen real soon.
Have a great day!

Paal, I'm sorry for that little out-lash. There is nothing wrong with inquiring the feasability of a new feature. The problem is that PDF has been an "output intended format" from the very beginning.
An Illustrator file (from a fairly modern version) also is a PDF file, for all intents and purposes. You can rename an .AI file to .PDF and use it anywhere, with any software that supports PDF (so that's excepting Apple's Preview, probably ;-) ). Moreover, you can still open and edit this PDF with Illustrator and get all of your objects, symbols, layers, paragraph styles, and guides back!
That's because in fact this file *contains* all this extra information in a data block marked "For Private Use Only". Other software, if adhering to Adobe's PDF specs, will simply ignore this (and thus my little jab at Apple's Preview). Does that mean you can edit such a PDF with *any* software? No -- the Illustrator data is "proprietary", and the details are not published to use by other software developers. Similarly, one could envisage InDesign to do the same. Yes, it would lead to *huge* files -- but hey, you would be able to open THAT file into InDesign and edit it. But not with any other software!
The meta-problem is that an extremely large amount of this private data would be *extremely* dependant on the software that was used to create it with. What would an Illustrator file do with InDesign's GREP styles? What would InDesign do with Illlustrator's brush styles, or symbols? Illustrator allows slanted guides, InDesign does not.
And let's not focus purely on a combo of ID and Illy; Photoshop *also* outputs PDFs, and its graphic data has yet another set of requirements.
So all of Adobe's software would need to be able to parse *every others' data* to some degree. Well, it's still not "unconceivable" as all of this would need to be done in one office (note that in that single office there are still vast differences in something as straightforward as a User Interface across the CS suite). But there are lots of other software developers out there, and they *all* want to write out PDFs, all with their own internal data! (Think of the different requirements between an architectural app and one for graph plotting.)
A *possible* solution would be to add "more" metadata to a PDF without crossing into the realm of "every single bit". Article tagging is an example of this -- it tells software that wants to know in which order *plain text* is to appear, and as such it serves as meta-data for plain text content. But the mind reels thinking of what more to add -- a list of used GREP styles per paragraph would probably be useless to anyone else.
But such an idea will not solve the problem, as 1. this meta-data is optional (lazy programmers would be allowed to say "nothing to see here, move along"), and 2. this data would only get added to *newly created* files, and it would not retroactively make older PDFs editable ...
(Now that's just the *short* version :-) h
