• InDesign CS4 Installer cannot validate my serial number upgrade CS design premium

  Hello, I need to use an older version of InDesign to work with one of my clients. I have the physical box of CS4, but I can't use this installer because it is on DVD and I just got a new iMac without a hard drive. So I downloaded of Abobe, InDesign CS4 Setup, but when I try to validate my code it does not work. My physical box of CS4 is a Design Premium UPGRADE version, but the InDesign Installer is not validate my old number CS3 either. I tried phone support, no use: no support for these former products supplied (shame). Since I regularly bought all my CS versions from a dealer here in Italy it's extremely embarrassing, and I lose a precious time for this instead of working on a project. Can anyone here help with this please? Thank you.

  The product you are trying to install/activate must be the same product for which the serial number has been assigned originally.  If the serial number is a suite then you must install using the suite.  Each product can be installed outside the suite.

• Upgrade memory PC 2 GB to 4 GB - problem with Indesign CS4

  I use Indesign CS4 on a PC (XP Professional SP3) that has 2 GB of memory. InDesign would go, but it has been slow, so upgraded to 4 GB. InDesign is running, but when we try to cut the text on one application and paste it into the document Indsign, he hesitates for a second or two before finishing the task.

  Is there some settings in Indesign to be considered in the upgrade memory? Any help or thoughts on this would be appreciated.

  I don't think that the problem is caused by InDesign.

• InDesign CS4 purchase option - no. CLOUD!

  I would like to know why Adobe decided that the cloud is the way forward?

  I have CS4 Web Premium. It works very well for me and I need to upgrade. However, I want to buy InDesign CS4 to go with my now, BUT that is not feasible. Now, they want you to pay a monthly fee... which I have NO confidence Cloud products. I want tangible objects in my hand and not have to pay monthly service fees. What a bunch of crap!

  If anyone knows where I can buy a new InDesign CS4 with SN program, let me know. Or, if there is an alternative program that won't lock you in monthly subscription fees, let me know.

  Thank you!

  CS4 is no longer sold, you can buy CS6

  Link to buy the CS6 via phone http://www.adobe.com/products/cs6.html read all the way down

  From what I read in a forum message, newer than 10.7 Mac must subscribe in the cloud instead of buy CS6... and someone with Win10 must also subscribe to the cloud for CS6 is not compatible (meaning that the seller will ask you your operating system and not sell you CS6 if she does not work on your computer... I don't know if this means that Win7 and you can't buy if you have Win8)

  Please report back with your operating system if you are able to buy CS6

• 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.

  I'll sign off the coast for today.

• Download and install a copy of InDesign CS4 replacement?

  After replacing hard drive using my laptop and the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I reinstall a number of programs and utilities such as InDesign CS4. My original program disc refuses to load, however, and my attempts to download a replacement copy of the ID CS4 on Adobe website have been desperately vain all evening.  I have connected to my Adobe account repeatedly, as long as the serial number of my original disk copy of ID CS4 repeatedly and repeated other steps several times as well, but have never been able to reach a point where I can actually download and install a new copy of the program. This should be a simple task, but it is almost impossible.  How can I accomplish this?  I need ID CS4 to produce several organizational newsletters quarterly and monthly I write, edit, illustrate, and publish.

  Please visit products CS4 download

  Hope this will help you.

  Kind regards

• To a new machine for inDesign CS4

  I'm trying to move a copy saved InDesign CS4 to a new computer.  When I enter the serial number, the Setup program checks for a qualifying upgrade product, and of course, there is nothing there.  What should I do now?

  I'm not clear on your workflow to date.

  You purchased InDesign CS4 and have a valid serial number for CS4?

  Terminal 2, to "download of trial version. What trial? From where? Adobe Web site? Adobe offers only tests for the current version (CS6).

• New impression of problem based on InDesign CS4 from Lion

  After having great success with Aisolve earlier trouble on printing from InDesign CS4, after updated to Lion, I have a new problem after installation of OS X 10.7.2 update last week. When I try to print from InDesign CS4 and Illustrator CS4 on my Lanier 445c/Ricoh C4500 at my workplace, I get the following error message:

  "Printing error: Adobe Print Engine failed at the end of your data due to an unknown problem."

  This seems to be a different problem this time, as I am able to print on my house, a LasertJet HP 2600n printer and an HP Photosmart C4270. I thought it might be a printer driver issues, but I went to the site of Lanier and they did not all new printer drivers for Mac OS X 10.7.

  I also have some of the research on the Adobe site and found this message in CS1, 2 & 3. I tried the solution that seems to apply to me, which has been re-naming/remove Deafults InDesign and InDesign SavedData files. (I have this same problem when I print a text without any graphics file). This fix did not work.

  I can print to the Ricoh/Lanier of Acrobat 9 and all my software not very well, so my workaround to this day has been the export in PDF and print from there. My big problem is that I need the "Print booklet" feature in InDesign for a big job, I had to come this week. Can do that since Acrobat. :-(

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  mmsteer,

  I think I'm able to help you with this problem, I had with CS4 when I put first to Lion, and others had some with CS3. This fix is courtesy of Aisolve on these discussion forums:

  Remove the following folders Adobe PDF PPV:

  OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/en.lproj,

  OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_CN.lproj,

  OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Ja.lproj,

  OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/ko.lproj,

  OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_TW.lproj,

  Don't forget to go to your library system, not your user library.

  In addition, on my current problem, I spoke with an Apple tech person and found that the 10.7.2 upgrade apparently is the culprit and is not compatible with printing wirelessly on my Lanier printer. I CAN print connected via USB. This is a workaround for now, but I'm going to need to contact Lanier about upgrading their driver for OS X 10.7.2.

  Aisolve me was helping with this issue too and make sure if I'm able to generate a postscript file (which I was) and capable of generating a PDF through Adobe Distiller distlling (which I am), so I can assume that the problem lies in the material, in this case the printer driver. It lines up with what Apple has told me.

• You have a PDF to hold on the viewer screen automatically when exporting to InDesign CS4?

  You have a PDF to hold on the viewer screen automatically when exporting to InDesign CS4?

  If you were to upgrade to InDesign CS5 or CS5.5 and if you exported as Adobe PDF (interactive), you can set the parameters for the layout display and Zoom.

  So that, as Jongware, its possible for individual users override this option (preferences > Page Display > default layout and Zoom) the number that will actually do that is actually very small.

• InDesign CS4 crashing on Mac OS 10.6.7

  After my G5 has recently decreased, I start using the iMac with Snow Leopard for customer jobs. Today I started working in InDesign CS4, but found that I could not well before it would break. I tried to delete the preferences, then tried to remove the fonts, then tried to restart and permissions running. I've been on the internet trying to find the answer. Checked the Adobe Forums. Even consulted Adobe help Console, but the guy who was told to the forums.

  Does anyone know if there is a solution to this crashing outside of having to upgrade to CS5? I use InDesign as much as I used to since I work primarily on the websites now. I would prefer not to have to be upgraded.

  Oh Hey! This is real progress!

  First of all, having verified Rosetta is certainly a problem. Make sure that it remains disabled.

  The SINGDLL is a known issue. As long as you do not use Asian fonts, you can safely follow the steps in this technote from Adobe to solve.

  Credit to Joel Cherney to remind in a recent thread with a similar deadlock / crash: Re: CS3, CS4, and CS5 Crash when click on.

  You can type "sysctl kern.exec" line in the Terminal. But it is probably useless - who was trying to understand why InDesign was executed in PPC mode, but we know the answer - because the Rosetta checkbox has been checked.

• Downgrade Indesign CS4 CS3?

  How can I downgrade the adobe indesign CS4 CS3?

  I want to use CS3, I buy CS4 but not CS3.

  Yes. Adobe doesn't sell copies for earlier versions. You can find a copy on eBay or Craigslist, but beware. If the seller used this copy as the basis for a CS4 upgrade, you won't be able to use it.

• PageMaker 7 to Indesign CS4

  My employer is looking to upgrade from Pagemaker 7 in Indesign CS4 for our publication needs. I have Indesign CS2 at home, so it certainly seems that Indesign will make things easier. However, the main publication that we will use in Indesign strongly relied on the "Paste special" function in Pagemaker, and I don't know what the equivalent of this function is in Indesign. (There may be this feature in CS4 but I know that's not in CS2) If there is not a similar feature in CS4, what function can I use to paste an Excel file on a page where, edited in Excel, Indesign page would also be updated. Who is?

  In InDesign, you will place the Excel worksheet. If you want to update automatically, you must set your preferences for a link to the documents text and spreadsheet, which unfortuanely is a global setting for the document. Update deletes all local editing you have done in ID (if you can select the ones you don't want to update and to separate them from the links Panel), so it helps if you've done the formatting in Excel and table styles help a little, too.

• Saving InDesign CS4 to InDesign CS2 files

  I'm about to upgrade CS3 to CS4 but do create a customer who needs to open InDesign CS2 documents. I saved files for this customer to the interchange (.inx) of CS3 format, which worked well. But the .inx CS4 files won't open in CS3. A work-around, I found was at TUAW (http://www.tuaw.com/2009/05/08/tuaw-tip-saving-indesign-cs4-files-for-indesign-cs2/), which suggests to open the .inx file in a text editor and change the version number. The resulting file should then open in CS4. I was wondering if anyone has tried this (with or without success) or has advice on saving CS4 docs for CS2? Thank you very much!

  I am just posting on the offhand chance that Peter is not going to be enough hard.

  The best choice: anyone using CS4

  2nd best: everyone using CS2

  3rd best: CS4--> INX-> CS3->-> CS2 INX

  4th best: editing the INX CS4 in a text editor and it opens directly in CS2

  That last work, in general, if you only use tools that are in CS2, but it's a hack of Rouxel-Ribbon for ducts that I wouldn't trust unless I found myself stuck between the proverbial rock and hard place.
