  1. InDesign 2017 Froze and Will Not Shutdown or Quit

    I am using InDesign 2017 on a Dell Windows computer. I was synching/saving a document and it froze. I shut down the computer but when I reopened the computer the document was still there but I could not do anything with it. I cannot quit. I cannot use my mouse with it. It is frozen as if permanently in a state of incomplete saving at 75%. What can I do to rectify this?

  3. Your decision to demand reactivation of a working program AND THEN NOT ALLOW THE REACTIVATION TO TAKE PLACE is reprehensible.

    Your technical rep called the CS3 suite an "end of life" product but it wasn't; it was enjoying a productive middle age until you put a bullet through its head. "End of life" should mean when new operating systems won't support it, not when you arbitrarily decide to kill it. I purchased that program outright and at significant cost, and you just stole it from me. I've always admired Adobe products but everyone involved with your business models should be ashamed of themselves. I plan to make my case against you LOUDLY on social media and in any other way…

  5. Ctrl + Alt + X

    To use the shortcut "Ctrl + Alt + X" to do a hard space in the text is impossible - it doesn't work at all. When I press "Ctrl + Alt + X" I start some sort of screenshot function. When I chose "Hard space" from the menu it works as it should do.
    So please help, I miss my "Ctrl + Alt + X" -function.

    1. InDesign 2017.1
    2. See above
    3. I expect to get a hard space in the text.

  8. Windows 10 PC. VBA for Excel and the InDesign CC2017 library are not functioning.

    I have a serious problem. I have a new Acer PC Windows 10. I am using Office 365 Excel VBA to control InDesign CC2017. The InDesign CC2107 Type Library is not functioning with the VBA. I have been using this setup since CS3 to automate InDesign actions and provide solutions for automating print production.

    I am trying to start a $4000 project using these same InDesign capabilities but am unable to get anywhere. I am most disappointed and upset at this occurrance and am seeking some assistance from Adobe. Attached is the software code that I am trying to implement.…

  9. Skewed Images when opening saved file

    After I make an InDesign document, if I don't make a PDF copy before quitting out of InDesign, the entire document containing placed images and text is lost when I quit out of it. Having the PDF allows me to see what I had done in InDesign, but I can't of course update or alter the PDF.

    I tried tossing out the preferences (shift+control+opt+command (mac) while launching InDesign) and it didn't change anything, it's still giving me skewed images.

    Any idea why this is happening, and how to fix it? I don't even know what to call it. It's a…

  10. Mozilla firefox not Working

    Several users have reported problems with Mozilla Firefox in Windows 10. Firefox's unanswered error is one of the most common errors associated with this browser. Users report that this is the first time this has happened since Windows Update.
    When Mozilla Firefox stops working, it stops responding to your clicks, keyboard clicks, as if it's doing nothing. Also, the Firefox title bar does not respond, the mouse cursor becomes a spinning wheel on the Firefox window.
    While there are many reasons for this, some common culprits seem to be responsible for the web browser problem.
