„Unable to convert .indd file”

Hi

I'm working on 10.9.5 OSX, InDesign version 2014.

Until today, I had no problem with converting .indd files saved in newer versions. But today I have a problem with it. I get a message that I need to log in to Creative Cloud (although I'm logged in all the time).

I tried to restart, log out, log in again.

Nothing works.

Any help?

Thanks.

This discussion is five years old. Please start a new one with full details including version of InDesign, operating system, RAM and processor along with exact error messages if any.

 

I'm locking this to avoid any confusion.

It looks like you are need to open the ticket in support if that link - Adobe ID account sign-in troubleshooting  won't help.

Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner

What? You had forward compatibility? Are you sure you phrased that correctly?

Have you reset preferences?

Nothing works.

Updating would.

CC2014 is not even an authorized version anymore and I suppose it's possible that Adobe has turned off the service for this version.

Hi Bob,

at least InDesign CC 2014 is an authorized version.

See "List of authorized and unauthorized versions" here:

Remove unauthorized versions

Uwe


This is strange because a few days ago I had a conversation with an Adobe consultant and said that CC2014 is no longer authorized and suggested an update.

So if CC2014 is still authorized, why is the conversion option not available?
