Re: Adobe Indesign Cs6 Portable Free Download For Mac
Theodora Glime
I have had trouble with my Indesign not opening when I click on it from my doc on my Mac. I thought it might have been my laptop so I restarted my laptop which didn't solve anything. I then tried to open the file I wanted directly without any luck. So I uninstalled InDesign and reinstalled it last night and it seemed to have fixed the issue (the programme opened and worked fine). However, this morning when I tried to open Indesign, the same thing is happening and it won't open again. I'm not sure where to go from here as uninstalling and reinstalling the program when I need to use it isn't practical.
what is happening: I click on Indesign to open it and the 'loading' screen pops up for about 1-2 seconds and then disappears. The program isn't running in the background either as there is no option to close it or end the task in the task manager.
I had to use a later version of the program and it works now. I have a class mate who was having the same issue last year and she had to go to a later version. I also had a class mate have issues with premiere pro and they had to go to an older version too. Give it a go and see if that helps. You can do this by going into your adobe cloud, sceoll to the program and the 3 dots will open up another menu where it says about later versions - just click on one version before the current one and it will do its thing. Hopefully this works for you!
So I have done all of this and it still doesn't open. I have to uninstall and reinstall everyday to get it to work - and now I don't have any of my preferences.
When I downgrade to an earlier version my files from the newest version won't open.
Has Adobe addressed this? I see InDesign is in beta - is this what's causing problems for the normal one? Their programs always get glitchy before MAX and a new release. It's getting annoying.
SO I clicked the link in the response below: (here. ) This explained it all. Apparently because I didn't have all the auto updates toggled on, my computer wasn't showing an update when "checking for new updates". I toggled them all on, and magically it had an update to 13.5 I was running 13.2. Everyone says that's fixing it. Praying that's so.
Had the same issue where I could only open the app once after installing it. Deleting preferences didn't do anything...
I downgraded from 18.5 > 18.0 and the crashing doesn't seem to happen anymore.
When I try to link (place) an image from OneDrive to Indesign I get the following error message: Adobe indesign is downloading a file from com.microsoft.onedrive. The file wont open until the download completes.
I don't believe OneDrive is a directly accessible file resource. Files have to be downloaded locally (which sometimes is done as a background, temp download, making it seem seamless). I don't think ID can link directly to OneDrive resources.
It works exactly the same as Dropbox. AFAIK, all of the cloud services now have the ability to download on demand. InDesign hates that and will throw the alert (it's not an error) when Cloud-Only is enabled.
So they all simply mirror those folders rather than allowing the files to actually reside on the remote resource. I bet that's giving some users questions about where their local storage space is going.
I just became an adobe member and downloaded and installed InDesign through the creative cloud desktop. When I start the program it opens a dialog screen where he tries to load something in. After 1 to 2 seconds it closes again to then re-open and trying to load again. It keeps doing this in an infinite cycle of opening and closing (see picture).
I've seen such a tedious procedure with some of the installations of Creative Cloud at the university where I do my lecturing. Every time I connect to the server using Remote Desktop and start up whatever installed Adobe app there is, Adobe insists on that double-authentification process and sends me a six-digit number by mail to complete my log-in to e.g. InDesign or PhotoShop.
While the problem was occuring the only way I found make it work at first was to log off from creative cloud, then launch the program where I had to log in and it asked me the full double authentification proces every log in. I used 7 codes just today.
I wouldn't know how it would be with a shared computer situation as you have at your university, but do you first log in to the creative cloud or do you open the programs from the desktop? I think it would make a difference as it seems creative cloud holds everything together.
there is not direct path that will keep everything that was made on the file. As in all of the styles will be lost. it will give things genetic games in the styles panel, but you will have to rename and check.
the .pdf to indesign solution offered will bring on a lot of redo work since a .pdf does not retain any of the styles. so you will find yourself having to name things again, all of the graphics will be embedded and they will be at the resolution selected per the .pdf settings.
i have used the .pdf to indesign converter mentioned above. i myself found it good for a since page thing. if you have a layout with many pages i went with making the layout myself since there will be a lot fo fix and clean and might as well make a good clean file.
Hi Jonathan, thanks for your feedback. Just to be clear and fair, the PDF2DTP conversion of multi-page PDFs into InDesign can vary from one PDF to another. Meaning, some PDFs, like those professionally created in InDesign or other layout tools, can convert very well. If there are tables with "illegal" or non-standard styling or functions, or custom plugins or the likes, yes, then the conversion can get trickier.
In general though, PDF2DTP has proven to be generally better than starting from scratch. Just check out some of the recent video reviews of PDF2DTP as a starter. And as always, we encourage those who own PDF2DTP to send us in any odd-ball PDFs that they feel should convert better to our Support Line.
Thanks for reaching out. I understand you are trying to open a Publisher file in InDesign. In addition to the suggestions shared above, you can also refer to this similar discussion: Converting Publisher files to InDesign
In short, it can't be done in ID off-the-shelf, but using a plug-in such as Markzware's Affnity to ID converter mentioned by David Dilling in his post. If this is a Microsoft Publisher file, then if you are able to obtain a PDF of the Publisher file, you could then use another of Markzware's plug-ins that is mentioned within this thread, or Recosoft's PDF2ID plug-in.
As mentioned, there is no direct built-in way these days, but there are a few online services that can do that for you. I have used one for a recent file and it was completely effective and cost only $50 for the one conversion. That gave a workable ID file and all the graphics extracted and relinked. If you still need to do what you need to do, shoot me a message and I will let you where i had it done online. (I don't want to seem like I am endorsing any particular company by mentioning them here)
Unless someone pushed MS Publisher to its limits, it's probably faster, and cheaper even in terms of ROI, to just rebuild the document in InDesign. A Word export or the like for any content over a few hundred words as a starting point, and perhaps a day or two's work. It's very unlikely a conversion is going to be press- or release-ready... unless the PUB doc is quite simple, in which case you're back around to it being that much easier to rebuild.
@Joel Cherney : Oooh.. I just tried out the watermarked demo... Not as good as it could be, but I was able to extract some images from an old Pub file, not to mention an old sample PageMaker file with embedded (not linked) images. Some of the images were corrupted, depending on their original format (TIFF seemed particularlly affected) or didn't export at all, but the ones that worked did come through in full resolution, albeit with generic file names. Still, for the price, might be worth looking at if the sole goal is to get the images from these files.
I agree. Although if it comes down to "Time = Money", I was able to save several hours over rebuilding a clients' massive Publisher project by spending $50 to have it converted which got me 75% there.
My InDesign stops loading at the startup panel at the "Executing startup services..." - and then nothing happens. This panel is open till I close the process in the task manager. I haven't opened it in about 2 weeks and back then it worked just fine.
Also you mentioned that it had been a couple of weeks since you opened the program. The most recent update of Windows 10 has caused problems for many people so your problems may be related to the update.
I marked it as resolved because I thought I found the cause of the problem which was to uninstall all Apple programs I installed last week. After I deinstalled iTunes, indesign started but the problem has only shifted. Now indesign starts but only the program window itself and the menu bar is on the screen. Can't click anything, no panels and have also to close the process to exit the program.
I also have deinstalled indesign by itself, indesign and all other adobe programs I had installed, deinstalled the creative cloud, did run the creative cloud cleaner tool. Also did I install an older version. As I said I tried everything I read on the support site from adobe as well as some other stuff users recommended in the forums for similar problems.
First of all the most up to date version of InDesign is 13.1 (your original post said 13.0.1). Make sure that you are updated to that. Also how old is your computer? I am not a Windows user but I do know that Microsoft is constantly updating that OS so what was working before the latest update may not be working correctly now. So if your computer is older it may not be handling the update well. Check with Microsoft as to what the system requirements are for the latest Windows 10.
