InDesign keeps crashing and corrupting my files

InDesign crashes on a regular basis, whenever it crashes I lose the last file that was open when the accident occurred. I can not re - open this file, if I try to open it, indesign crashes again and again. What happened 7 times in the last two months. I'm getting really sick of having to re - build complicated art files.

It doesn't seem to be any consistency to when it crashes. Most of the time however, ID crashes right after (or as) the file that I worked on is closed.

I'm on CC 2015 the latest version and I'm running OS X 10.9.5. (don't have not updated to Yosemite yet)

I just tried to re - open file corrupted todays again once and it came with the following info on "an invalid image. If I press Yes or no, it won't let me open & ID crashes again.

Please help urgently!  Is there any way I can recover my file corrupted from today?

Thanks Peter, I was able to get a working version of the file.

Oh also I spoke with tech support and they said that this is the fix for the current version of indesign.

If all goes well, that stops all the other files are corrupt.

  • iPad Air keeps crashing and restarting

    Why my iPad Air keep crashing and restarting in Safari? I also think other applications. iOS 9.3.2 must be the culprit because it never happened so often. Any solution?

    Go to settings - Safari - clear the history and data from the Web site.

    If that doesn't work, reset your device. This will not erase your data stored on the phone.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

  • Why my PC keep crashing and giving me a BSOD?

    I had this problem for months. the last error code read (System Service Exception... STOP: 0X0000003B). Please let me know if you need the dump files or any other information. Unfortunately none of the diagnoses that I run can identify the problem, I updated the drivers and updates of Windows and electronic or Fry or Geek Squad staff can find the problem.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards
    Mr. Olivo
    These accidents were caused by the corruption of memory (probably a driver).  Run these two tests to check your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.

    Don't forget to download any other DMP files (especially those running auditor)

    If you are overclocking reset all default before running these tests.
    In other words STOP!   If you don't know what it means that you're probably not

    1 - Memtest.
    Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program. http://www.memtest.org
    Boot from the CD and let it run at least 5 or 6 passes.
    Remember, anytime Memtest reports errors, it can be bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot.
    Test the sticks individually and if you find a good, test it in all slots.

    Any error is indicative of a memory problem.
    If a well-known stick fails in a slot of motherboard, it's probably the slot.


    2. Driver Verifier

    Using Driver Verifier is a dubious proposition. Most of the time it will crash and it will tell you what is the driver.

    But sometimes it will crash and will not tell you the driver.
    Sometimes it will crash until you can connect to Windows. If you can't mode without failure, then you will have to resort to editing the registry offline to disable driver verifier.
    I suggest that you first back up your data and make sure you have access to another computer so you can contact us in case of problems.
    Then do a system restore point (so you can restore the system using the functionality of Vista/Win7 Startup Repair).

    Here is the procedure:

    Click Start and type "auditor" (without the quotes) and press enter
    Select 'Create a custom settings (for code developers)' and click 'Next' (or Type "check/standard/all" (without the quotes) If you want to check each of them (this will slow down your computer))

    Choose "Select custom settings from a full list" and click "Next".
    Select the entire document except for "Low resource Simulation" to win 8 do not check concurrency stress test and the verification of the conformity of DDI, click "next".
    Select "Select driver names from a list", then click "next".
    Select all drivers that are NOT provided by Microsoft, and then click "Next".
    On the next page, select "Finish".
    Restart the system and wait as he crashed to blue screen.
    Continue to use your system normally and if you know what are the causes of the crash, do it several times. The objective here is to get the system crash because Driver Verifier is stressing out the drivers. If it is not planted for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation.
    If you are unable to Windows because it crashes too early, try safe mode.
    If you can't mode without fail, try to use the system from the installation DVD restore to bring the system back to the previous point of restoration that you created.

    Note: when you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 7, mentioned in the article talking about clean boot to start your computer to normal startup.

    Note: there is a risk of data loss if all the files are infected and which can be removed in the cleaning process.

    If you perform an in place upgrade, also known as a repair installation remember to back up all important data.

    Note: After the upgrade on site, your personal data and installed programs will not be deleted, but you may need to run Windows Update to install all the updates that are available for your system to update these files system to the current version.

    If your installation DVD disc is prior to Sp1, and you have the SP1 is installed on your computer, you will need to uninstall SP1 to finish the upgrade on the spot and then reinstall the necessary windows updates. This applies if you have SP2 also.

  • Help: flash CS5 to crash and corrupt .fla

    I'm having a hell of a problem and could use really help someone who has a good idea.

    I work in flash CS5 on windows 7 64.

    Also, I am currently running on the crash to save the trouble.  The latest version of my .fla damaged about four days, which is something that I got into the habit of (had the wonderful error "unexpected file format").  So I went to my backup file - same question.  I had to go back 12 backup versions to find one that would work (even my backups on external when drives copied the disk local or open from the outside would give this error.  They did NOT give this error a week ago).  But this version of the backup hangs now on save, save money, or if I try to create a new .fla, while safeguarding .fla is open, it crashes.  If I try to open any other .fla, while the .fla of backup is open, flash crashes.  Sometimes is is inadmissible and must be closed. Sometimes it of simply there, does nothing, SAID he will run, but will not respond to clicks, minimizing the window, or nothing at all and I have to force quit.  Sometimes, it will break just by clicking on a library item.

    I tried the following recommended hotfixes:

    Save the file in a new directory - on the rare chance that flash don't crash on save (about 1 to 10) and is not corrupt and do a new .fla which is 2 k in size (about 1 to 4), the new .fla has all the same problems of the original.

    change using variable - no JAVA environment

    Increase the value for xmx jvm.ini - 124 tried. 256, 512, no help

    Open the zip and xml active library directly, removing them until you find a file corrupted access.  three times.  to three different versions of the FLA in the backup files.  Flash still crashes.

    Save the money. XFL in - on the rare chance that flash crashes on save, the. XFL to is corrupted (2 k file size, no library and for some reason, a black square for an icon) about 3 to 4 times.  The 4th time, the file does not work better than any other .fla

    to update flash player - no help.

    update of plugins for all browsers and versions - no help debug

    flash CS5 upgrade to the latest version - no help

    Download and install all the updates of windows - no help

    Remove preferences and config files - no help

    The ONLY way I can avoid Flash crashing is to return to a backup version of more than two months ago.  This version will open, save correctly and debug correctly without error.

    I tried and failed at every suggested difficulty, I found online or on these forums for this set of problems that I currently have.  I have three weeks of the end of the project, and there is no way I can go back two months into the production schedule.

    of course, I can't afford to lose two months of work.  If someone has an idea of what might be the case, I'd be exstatic - I'm really at the end of my rope here.  After four days of searching for help and corrections online and on these forums and talk with adobe to support on the phone ("we do not manage the coding issues" is the only answer I get.  Gee, thanks for the help), none of the fixes which have been recommended to have worked me.

    I think that the amount of time you have already invested in this subscription a reinstall full of the flash itself. If no other application (say, photoshop, etc.) only has problems with the opening of the files (if you don't have one, make one), then something has been corrupted Flash.

    You are working on a Creative Suite or you just Flash as a separate product? Anyway I honestly get rid of this copy of Flash (uninstall) and reinstall. Clearly, something is very corrupt in it. Flash CS5 would never behave like that and you have a LOT of enough RAM. You don't need to adjust all the variables in java or all all ini files.

    Consider reinstalling Flash and see if the problems just go away. I can tell you that rare are the people in your boat.

  • Plugin Adobe Flash keeps crashing, and or refreshing it or Firefox solves the problem.

    I tried to update Adobe Flash and reload also Firefox but nothing has solved the problem.

    You have already disabled the functionality of the protected mode? This feature has the security benefits, but it seems to have serious compatibility problems on some systems. There is a hidden parameter to disable; I suggest to try it for a day to see if that helps you:

    (A) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (B) in the search above the list box, type or paste the flash and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (C) double-click the preference dom.ipc.plugins.flash.disable - protected mode to change its value from false to true.

    It cannot take effect until all the Flash was discharged for a few minutes, or you close Firefox.

    One of your crash signatures (_SEH_prolog4) reminded me of a thread where a user was very persistent problems with Flash on YouTube if Webroot and LastPass were both installed. It seems that you run Norton, so that the thread is probably not directly relevant.

    Would you consider trying the "Extended Support Release" of Flash version instead of the version 18? Adobe is now updated with security patches, but some recently added features Flash would be absent.

    If you want to try this, you will need to use Adobe uninstaller to remove the current version (link in: Flash Plugin - keep up-to-date and solve problems) and then get version 13.0.0.309 from this page (scroll down about 2/3 of the way):
