InDesign CS4 freezes when minimize

• InDesign CC2014 Freeze when opening documents

  This question is makes us crazy :-(    For the last month, CC InDesign keeps freezing and/or crashing when you try to open documents .indd.  We have written Adobe on the issue, but receive no response.

  The problem is intermittent - sometimes it opens just fine, other times it is hesitant / slow down,- but half of the time the application freeze just up and we need to force quit.

  When restart us InDesign after forcing the application to quit, the app opens all documents, including those causing the freezing.

  We´re Yosemite 10.10.3 on retina 5 K iMac with 32 GB of RAM running.

  Greetings,

  Thanks for the reply!

  Hmmmm... Well, the path does not lead to the Holly Grail as it appears here. I'm looking in the folder hidden in the library, in preferences, but I don't know which file to delete... have now removed a file of preferences for v10.

  I´ll report back, as soon as I don't know if the problem is resolved. Fingers crossed!

• InDesign CS4 crash when printing... "' Macromedia ' apparent culprit...

  (Sorry if this has found its way to the bad advice Forum: I can't seem to find a way to the appropriate InDesign CS4 'Community' to publish it in!)

  My Mac of InDesign CS4 version 6.0.6 version started crashing when you try to print.

  The Crash log shows that the individual has crashed the thread in order to always include the line:

  com.macromedia.Flash Player.authplaylib 0x1c5ac2dd ExternalPlayer_Initialize + 1864739

  .. which is repeated twice, with different similar numbers just before and after "ExternalPlayer_Initialize".

  I guess that there is a problem with InDesign calling "macromedia. '" Flash Player"instead of Adobe Flash Player, but I don't know where or how to change the words 'macromedia '. Flash Player"to encourage the program runs correctly.

  Note: The program has been installed on a Mac that had disappeared and was found and returned, but in the meantime we would have bought a Mac replacement. InDesign has been uninstalled and then some Mac initially lost, and a previous full backup of this Mac was then restored on the new Mac, so that was a complete copy of the original (.. so respect for restrictions on use..)

  After that the program was restored on the new Mac, it prints more.

  Any help or suggestions, please?

• InDesign CS4 crashes when converting 1-column text box with a drop shadow to the col-2 (or more)

  I use InDesign CS4 in Windows XP Pro 64-bit, 6 GB of RAM. If I create a column 1 text box, fill it with a color, add a drop shadow, and then add text, everything is fine. If I try to change it to 2-columns (or), InDesign freezes/crashes. I thought at first that it is perhaps because the case was shot, but it happens even if the case is not turned. If I remove the shadow and try to change it, it works.

  Anyone know why this is happening or if there is a known bug or fix?

  Thank you

  XP 64 is totally supported. No troubleshooting should begin there.

• InDesign CS4 closes when I try to print

  Whenever I try to print a document, Indesign CS4, the application closes unexpectedly. I press apple-P and it closes unexpectedly. I can turn Indesign documents into a PDF file that is correct and I can print the correct PDF files (and other applications). I can't just simply print Indesign documents. There are no other problems with Indesign - or all the other apps.

  I'm under Indesign 6.0.6 on an iMac with OS 10.7.1 2011. The printer is a HP Laserjet 1320, connected via a USB port. All software, including printer drivers, are the most recent available.

  Any ideas how to stop Indesign smoking when I try to print? Any suggestions gratefully received.

  Thank you.

• InDesign CS4 crashes when exporting to PDF

  Try to export a file from InDesign CS4 to PDF. That's always worked before but one file won't work. Program seems to stall or take so long, I think that it is broken down.

  There is a progress bar that tells you what the program actually does? I remember seeing it in earlier versions, and it helped identify problems.

  If not, is there a troubleshooting procedure I can work through?

  Thanks for any help

  Well, dkd. alkje; olhp [oihjl, there isn't really a set-loans troublesome documents troubleshooting procedure. If you are not yet see the dialog ongoing export with the bar of progression, there is something seriously wrong with your file or your InDesign.

  Yet, no need (yet) to resort to drastic measures. Try this: the first half of your export document. If it works, export the second half of your document. If this also works, you have a problem and the two halves. The two halves can be supported by Acrobat, just stick to the other and you have a single complete PDF, but the problem still persists.

  If one half of your document exports well and the other half does not, the part without work again in two halves to export. Repeat this until you have that one page left who does not - export and it's caused trouble. It could be a picture, an image, one placed (PDF or EPS<- hint:="" trouble!),="" or="" even="" something="" like="" a="" single="" space="" in="" a="" font="" that="" indesign="" does="" not="" particularly="" like="" --="" at="" least="" you'll="" have="" a="" clue="" to="" where="" to="" scan="" for="" troublesome="">

  If this results in nothing, he can point to a messy file. Sometimes crass and undesirable add up in the corners of the ID files, and save under could clean it up for you. If this is not the case, go to more drastic step described in the present:

• InDesign CS4 crashes when you place the Word document

  Hello

  I'm having a real problem by placing a Word document in InDesign CS4. It crashes everytime! I found that if I turn off the 'import inline graphics' it correctly places the document. but enabling this option blocks InDesign.

  I tried to save in rich TEXT format and even do a simple copy - paste, but the result is the same: InDesign crashes.

  If you have an idea please let me know!

  Thank you

• InDesign CS6 freezes when recording then crashes to reopen

  Hey guys and girls,

  Small problem, I was trying to trouble shoot this for a few days now. But, alas, no idea. Sometimes after a few hours of operation in Indesign and after several successful stops. I'll save a file and get the pinwheel (mac OSX 10.7.5) and subsequently force quit indesign. From reopening I've spent during initialization and get a crash here's the report:

  http://pastebin.com/Sdm0tK3y

  I would like to know if anyone has an idea, thanks in advance!

• InDesign CS4 works every time when you export to PDF

  I have CS4 for several years with absolutely no problem. I create the occasional newsletter - lengths ranging from 3 to 12 pages. I created one in September without problem. Last month, when exporting to PDF, I kept getting a message "Adobe InDesign CS4 has stopped working." and something about Windows 7 looking for a solution (which of course didn't). My only modification in Adobe between when it worked and where he didn't was 1) I upgraded to Adobe PS and LR CC.  (2) I also did an upgrade to Adobe Acrobat (I think she was using now... sort of a core component to acrobat.com saw a message indicating an update was available and did not know he would start using some cloud services).

  -temporarily work around the problem of the last month, I sent my InDesign document (small - page 3) and images to a friend who created the PDF file for me with no problems.

  Now, I'm working on another ballot (which does exactly the same way) so seriously try to correct the problem. I took my search suggestions and forum-based measures:

  -J' uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign

  -I got rid of the implementation level Acrobat and uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat 9 of my suite CS4

  -J' deleted my preferences files so that they would be replaced by the default system (by a suggestion of the forum)

  -J' tried to export a page at a time to see if there is a problem with a specific element on a page - nothing exported successfully, not one page in my 12 page document

  -To meet my deadline of my last newsletter (12 page), I decided to package it for someone else to export to PDF. The package failed with the error message

  -J' read that there are sometimes mistakes with lack of enough temporary storage to create PDF files. The AdobeTemp file is located on a drive with several GB of free space. However, since the package have also failed, I wonder if the problem is in this area.

  Would appreciate any assistance to resolve it. I just don't know what else to try. Thank you

  It isn't a certainty with Windows error reports, but it seems to be of type text/partner, and a secondary-pair or damaged police could be the problem. Fonts free fonts sites are often below standards.
