Cannot open 'filename.indd' in CS5.5

Hey useful people.

I have a project of great 90pg in indesign that was forwarded to me by a previous to be completed and modified Designer. The file was last opened this summer in CS5. I have since upgraded to CS5.5 and am now need to complete this project. I tried to open it for the first time the other day and InDesign says 'cannot open 'filename.indd'. Until I downloaded the latest update to InDesign, I tried to open the file as a copy and InDesign said: he cannot open 'filename.indd '. The "filename.indd" file is damaged (error code: 4). I downloaded from the update but I still get the same results. The file size is 5.9 MB and in my opinion, there is some place inside PDF files. Please tell me there is something I can do to fix this file!

Thank you

Joey

Share the file online somewhere and ask politely if anyone can take a look.

Include a link.

5.9 mb sounds a bit small for a document with image preview 90pp, unless the last action was a save as.

  • Cannot open the .indd files in InDesign CS6

    I use InDesign CS6 (cloud version) on Windows XP. I can only open the .indd files by opening InDesign CS6, do file > open, and then browse to the file.

    If I try to go to the folder where the .indd file is located (without opening InDesign CS6) and double-click it, he acts like he doesn't know what kinf of the file it is.

    A co-worker of mine knows the same thing on Windows 7.

    Does anyone have suggestions on what to try to fix this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    Uninstall, run the cleanup tool (CS for installation problems cleaning tool |) CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall. The symptoms you describe are typical if the icon Manager .dll file is damaged.

  • Cannot open file .indd suddenly!

    I have a large file that has been opened very well for weeks. It's 300 pages and an .indd file. I tried to open this file backup copies and zero with the same file name opens. I tried to open the file on another computer, and it still not open.

    I opened the other versions of the file (different file name) and other independent files without problem. I opened the largest files without problem. I think some how this file is corrupted.  I get a message when I try to open it says that: indesign can't open * .indd. "I just made a few changes that will have a huge amount of time to do it again so I would get this file open somehow. I have a recent .pdf file, maybe I could import that?  If it is anyway to at least print a copy without actually opening it.

    All this happened when I decided to create a book file where I put this file and then add a table of contents, another front pages glossary and index. I've been avoiding this step, but thought this would facilitate bringing in everything together without creating a huge file.

    Before moving on to the next step, I've saved a copy of the original file on another hard drive.  Then I put the book and when I tried to put my original file in the book that he had failed. After that I couldn't open one of my recent backups saved with the same name on other hard drives. I have three.

    What happens if I try to change the name of the file before opening it, because I think it has something to do with trying to get into the book file? Possibly trying to change the designation to .indb .indd file?

    A strange thing, when I look at the file does not open on the hard drive, it seems to have recorded the last time I tried to open the file as if I had actually opened even if indesign gave me the message "cannot open".

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Basically, you got lucky.

    The lock file is automatically generated by InDesign and cannot be bypassed or removed while the file is open. It's there to prevent two users to have the same file open at the same time. Under the normal circumsstances, it is automatically deleted when the associated file is closed.

    Once, I saw this same error with a file stored on a network of desertrosa and was able to retrieve the same way. Basically, your original is probably somehow corrupted and now useless. It is possible, even likely, since you do not have a lock file, it is not a problem of lock file at all. Once you save the copy and no connection between different document files lock files, there is no relationship between the original and the copy. You should be able to work safely with the copy, but I highly recommend that you keep local while working and only switch to a network after you save, if you want to network storage.

  • all greyed out, .indd files cannot open starting in Indesign CS5

    Hi all

    On an iMac g5 with Indesign CS5 (7.0.4) i7.

    Since yesterday, all the .indd files are grayed out when you try to open them in Indesign (command-o).

    From the Finder they open fine still...

    Cannot find anything on the web.

    Clues?

    Thank you

    I've seen it.

    InDesign depends on the operating system to maintain this file association, and sometimes it can get bollixed.

    You must rebuild the launch Services database.

    Devices supported by Adobe Camera Raw

    The DSC-RX100 was first supported in camera Raw 7.2 which is only compatible with CS6 and Cloud versions.

    You will never be able to open the RX100 in CS5 Raw files, even when you install Camera Raw 6.7 update successfully.

    You have two options:

    1. Join the cloud, or
    2. Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert batch all RX100 Raw files to DNG format, and then change the DNG files in CS5. An extra step for you, but no extra costs.

  • Cannot open the Canon 6 d Raw files in CS5. [was: Camera Raw / Photoshop is not compatible]

    Hello

    I just upgraded from a Canon 1000 d with a Canon 6 d, during shooting in raw and try to open it with photoshop, it says the camera raw is not compatible and it uses a different format, even if both devices have the CR2 file, I never had problems with my 1000 d. I have photoshop CS5 and have tried to update, but it still does not work. Someone knows how to fix this? I'm a photography student and my deadline is in 2 weeks, so I really need to get to this sorting asap! Advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    It uses a different format, even if both devices have the CR2 file

    CR2 is not a fixed file format. It varies with each camera model that make cannon. It is the same for all the camera manufacturers.

    New camera, new file Raw, same Raw file extension format model (CR2 = Canon, NAVE = Nikon, etc.).

    Devices supported by Adobe Camera Raw

    Camera Raw plugin and Adobe application compatibility

    The 1000 d is supported in Camera Raw 5.1 and later - compatible with CS4 and later. CS5 can open these Raw files.

    The 6 d is supported in Camera Raw 7.3 and later - compatible with CS6 and later. CS5 cannot open these Raw files.

    RAW support is never added retroactively to older versions of the Adobe software you will never be able to open files 6 d Raw in CS5.

    Options:

    1. Join the Cloud (Plan of photography) and get Photoshop CC 2015 + Lightroom CC 2015 for $10 / month (as long as your computer can run)
    2. Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all the 6 d to DNG Raw files, then change the DNG files in CS5. An extra step for you, but no extra costs.

  • Cannot open the raw files of Nikon d800 in PS CS5 and can not be updated Camera Raw plug-in

    Cannot open the raw files of Nikon d800 in PS CS5 (Win7 64 bit). It is said, the model not supported by Camera Raw. Tried to update Camera Raw plug-in for d800 but keep error message: failed to update, Adobe Application Manager may be damaged. Re-install the latest application manager, but still the same error message. How to fix?

    Thanks to them both.

    Nothing worked until I managed to speak directly to Adobe support. They recommended to install the latest version of Camera Raw Installer 8.6. It has not helped to open NEF files immediately but he fixed an error of 6.7 'update failed' updated Camera Raw! After updating to 6.7 all goes well, see my d800 naves. Cheers, Sergey
