Indesign Crashing

Anyone have G5 intel machine that Indesign is constantly crashing? Any idea why?

Program is an image from older G5 sytem if that helps?. Maybe fresh install?

thanks

I think some people had this with ID CS2 on Intel based Macs. Don't know if they ever got it resolved or not.

Have you tried tossing the plist?

"Program is an image from older G5 sytem if that helps?. " I would think you need to install it on the new Mac not do a copy from the old. PPC and Intels are way different.

Man, I made that mistake at first too Logan. It still looks like a damn G5 box but now it's an ICBM. They've made a distinctive change to every other box along with the chip, I know a lot of people who call the ICBM a G5. I know, it's not but... I'm just sayin' is all.

LoganBlade · November 07, 2007, 11:27:43 AM

from today forward I will call it the id10t box

thnks for the correction all.

shoot, i was hoping to find some answers here..

Im running (or try to) Indy CS2 on WinXP/IntelP4 3.4/2GB ram.

ive had this problem since day 1:

launch Indy from a clean boot, it gets past the splash screen then gives me a fatal exception error. (about 8/10 times)

double click an indy file, it launches indy, indy loads, loads the file, then gets a fatal exception error. (every time)

When it does actually load, if i try to open a file, it will crash, but, if i create a new document, save it, then i can open any indy file all day long without error (only if i create a blank document and save) - not sure what this has to do with anything, but i was told to try it.

we've tried adobe tech support, reinstall of CS2, Reinstall of WinXP. no change. Im getting a new PC soon, so hopefully whatever is causing this goes away.

delooch,

when you re-installed the OS (or for that matter, the CS2 app), did every thing go alright?
no hick-ups or stalls, or did it take what seemed to be a longer time than you would normally expect to install?

just wondering if you maybe have a bad install CD.
or maybe a bad spot on the hard drive.

dunno, just thinkin out loud...

good luck,
David
