InDesign CS5 Mac and the ubiquitous Beachball

Hi all.

I upgraded to ID CS5 about 4 months ago. Since then, ID hang up with the formidable beachball. Apparently at random. The only thing that I think may be the common denominator is that he usually hangs when coming back to a different application id.

I tried to run id without 3rd third-party plug-ins, trashed prefs, hiding, etc.

Any ideas?

Worm, 7.03.

Thanx.

Oh, ho, it's easy! Experienced a bug in the plugin Quark2ID from Markzware. Disable the plugin, Markzware email and they will provide you with a new version. Easy as pie!

  • CC of InDesign for Mac and PC are not the same?

    I have creative cloud on a Mac and a PC. I can't open Indesign Mac on PC files and it's frustrating. The whole point of getting Adobe CC should be able to work on both platforms. The Mac of Indesign version is showing that 9.2.1 and the PC version is showing that the version 8.0.2. If you're never going to get the PC version, the same, how can I return the Mac down to version 8.0.2 so files will be interchangeable?

    Sounds like you have CC Mac, but only a CS6 version (that you could get subscription) on the PC. Make sure that you install CC on both machines.

  • InDesign, export XML and the Task FORCE

    As a producer of a weekly, I need advice as to generate xml from Indesign CC (Mac) data standards NITF, at the choice of my digital Distributor. This includes dividing an article - that can be formatted in single text - in two equal elements: one for the title, signature, etc. and one for the body of the text. Is it possible to do without altering the original route, intended for printing? I would rather not have to break an image into two just for this purpose - for each article in the newspaper. In short: an image, an ACE, maybe two items, the head and the body? There is no shortage of advice around xml, nor on the NITF standard for dress news, but I have yet to find the one dealing with both. Thanks in advance.

    If I understand correctly, you just need to label the elements properly. To use a simple example, if I have a single image of text that contains a header and body text, I would create two tags, one for the title and one for the body. Then, I select the heading and apply the tag title and made similarly to the body. When you export to xml format, you will have two items with the title tag and the other with the body tag.

    I am ignorant as to the requirements of the Task FORCE, and so you need anew XSLT to perform on the exported XML file that would comply with the standard. I do not know because I am not aware of it. This part, if necessary I would do in an xml editor or a good text editor who may be able to it's needs.

  • InDesign CS5 hangs with the warning dialog box

    Hello

    Facts:

    InDesign CS5, v7.0.4

    OS X 10.7.4

    Without execution of application-font-management of third parties.

    MacBook Pro (June 2012)

    InDesign crashes in these two cases:

    1 try to remove a page whose content is. Just as the warning box appears, it is without content (just the title of 'Warning') and accidents.

    2. what package a file, as it is to warn you about the dangers of archiving policies, it does the same thing as above and crashes.

    Tried alt-opt-cmd-shift thing to restart preferences and nothing.

    I tried deleting the files of two preference directly so that they would rebuild and nothing.

    Interestingly, I have another computer running OS 10.7. 3 (as opposed to 10.7.4 the crashy) and the same InDesign CS5 7.0.4 and it works perfectly.

    Ideas? Conduit?

    Thank you

    Armin

    Our engineers have provided a workaround solution which, although potentially complex for some, should allow the full functionality.

    Essentially, we ask the people affected by this problem to put three icon files in the InDesign application file itself to skip the check for the missing API.

    Please take a look at the article just to look and see if the steps and files to work for you.

  • How to speed up my Mac and the free space on the disk?

    MY Mac book is 6 years old and I need more space. Can I "Redo" the hard drive so to start again?

    Please after the release of EtreCheck

    <https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6174> or <http://etrecheck.com>

    This will show the configuration of your system, as well as all the 3rd party additions that you added, some of which may be responsible for your performance problems.

    Regarding the research of storage for free, try OmniDiskSweeper (free download)

    <http://www.omnigroup.com/more>

    When you use OmniDiskSweeper, or any utility that displays all the files...  See the article after if you want to run it as root

    <http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/how_to_recover_missing_hard_drive_space>

    Warnings of boiler plate:

    If you have a subscription, to run out of disk space, problem, then OmniDiskSweeper can help identify the space where goes.  View files and suspected places will help the forum help you to understand.  Don't forget, we can not see in your drive, you must give us information to work with.

    DO NOT delete files in your folder-> Library Home Page tree as there are things like backups of your iPhone, your emails, your application preferences, etc...  If you think that you found something in your file-> Library Homepage which can be removed, you must ask first.

    DO NOT remove the files outside your home folder, you can end up removing something essential to Mac OS X and transform your Mac into a costly "door Stop."

    I want to say that you will find a few very large files in private-> var-> vm (these are Mac OS X virtual memory paging files (swapfiles) and where Mac OS X stores the RAM copy when your Mac is paused).  The swapfile (s) is deleted on reboot, and the sleep image will just be recreated when you put your Mac to sleep.

    If you think that you found something to remove outside your home folder, it would be better to ask first before deleting.  There are many examples of people deleting files outside their home folder, rename files, or change the property or file permissions and then their Mac stops running.  Don't be one of those people.  Ask first.

  • Download new mac and the serial number does not work.

    Is switched from Windows to mac and trying to download previously purchased Lightroom and it won't take serial number.

    If it's 6 of Lightroom, which is very likely.  Older versions of Lightroom came with a license that could be used for different operating systems, but the current version does not work.

    You should still be able to Exchange languages/platforms for a newer version product if you follow the instructions on the following link:

  • Purchased Windows instead of Mac and the wrong amount

    I've been using the trial version of Adobe Premiere Elements on my Mac and decided to buy it yesterday. However, when I clicked on the next button to continue trial ('buy now' I think he said)... He led me to a page and the Windows platform selected automatically with a quantity of 2. Stupidly, I missed it and I just clicked on Yes Yes Yes. Is it possible that I can get that changed in Mac Version and just 1 copy? If so, how?

    (I posted this on the forums of discussion and not had very good luck.) They responded so well after that I had posted and I was no longer at the computer. Then I tried again today and just at the moment where someone finally answered, the frozen whole cat.)

  • Export from InDesign to PDF and the PDF file last updated is greater than one month and not easily print on letter paper is PDF presets?

    Hello

    I export from InDesign to PDF page is larger in the PDF file, and others I exported. This is because of the present PDF? One of the project managers is not able to print on 8.5 "x 11", but the InDesign document presets are the same as before. I wish I could download PDFs to show, but the newly exported PDF is greater than the version I created a month ago. I created a PDF file and the newly updated PDF file is almost un.5 inch wider with the export presets even. Any thoughts?

    I suspect the project manager has his copy of Reader/Acrobat simply set to print full size, rather than "Worthy" (assuming that the size of InDesign pages is truly 8.5 x 11).

    .. the newly updated PDF file is almost un.5 inch wider with the same export presets.

    This has nothing to do with export presets. How did determine you this difference of half inch?

  • InDesign CS5 (Mac) document is on strike (crashes for .idml, creation of table of contents)...

    1. document A: attempted to create a Table of contents to replace the one I already have. INDD beachball.

    2 force quit INDD and restarted. On the re-creation of table of contents with the new model, same result. Force quit again.

    3 restarted Mac

    4. the same result as 1. Set up a new style of table of contents, with or without PDF hyperlinks. Same result.

    5 reset preferences INDD. Document reopened attempted to create the table of contents. Same result.

    6 document B: have tried to create a table of contents in another document. No problem, should be document, rather INDD as a whole.

    7. the document A: Reopened document original buggy, attempted to create IDML, but it froze at 57%. Force quit again...

    What can I do to get a non-buggy working paper, has? It has variables and references, but the fact of B documents.

    Thanks Jongware for your suggestion.

    Open as copy didn't work so I decided to go back to the previous version (I always do a new document when the customer sends the next set of amendments) and re-done about 5 hours of work, but now I have an updated version that does not keep crashing and with cross-reference works really well. Thought it would be better that send on you because I assumed that no one would be able to determine what was causing the document crashing to the point 57 percent of idml creation or when you click the mark button table of contents.

    I guess that the 57% point INDD works on the table of contents, or cross-references or those dratted variables that cause any document down if the text that contains is selected. This is a bug that I wish Adobe would fix pronto. Only occurs on Mac not PC of CS5 version apparently computers.
