New reports from users are suggesting a problem with Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 and Adobe InDesign CS3. By opening an InDesign file from the File… Open menu, the application will crash. On affected systems, this crash is reproducible. Simply double-clicking a file in the Finder to open it allows the file to open normally.
Adobe has a tech note on this subject with some suggested workarounds. Adobe claims “After you install the Adobe Version Cue CS3 3.1.0 update, the following Creative Suite 3 products may crash when you attempt to save, open, or place a file on Mac OS X:
- Adobe InDesign CS3
- Adobe InCopy CS3
- Adobe Illustrator CS3
- Adobe Photoshop CS3
- Adobe Flash CS3 Professional
- Adobe Bridge CS3″
They have a file update available which solves the problem for some, but not all, users. People have tried using Disk Utility, repairing permissions, and deleting the Adob prefs. Some have also reinstalled 10.5.1 using the combo updater without improvement. One trick to try may be to delete the InDesign folder in home/Library/Cache/Adobe.
