    in this case, Close all your open files and other applications.

    - Save file you are working on.

    - Restart your Mac to reset your RAM memory.

    I have followed your directions and I am still unable to open any files. When I try to open any .ia files my system has 5.GB of free memory available.

    Yes.


    Do you have any third party plugins installed?

    Are all your fonts OK?

    Do you have a printer attached, set up and turned on? If not, install one.

    Where is the file located? If not on the harddisk of that computer, copy it there and try again.

    Any images linked in that file? If so, also move them to the harddsik.
