urgent!!! indesign Beta

New Here ,
Jan 10, 2024 Jan 10, 2024

Hi,

Unfortunately, the InDesign beta version has expired, and we can no longer access our files from the Creative Cloud. We recognize that relying on a beta version was risky, but we didn't anticipate this issue. We're under a tight deadline to complete the project by tomorrow. Could you advise whether we should wait for a new beta release or if we need to redo the entire project overnight?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards, 

MK

If I were you, I'd get to work and chalk this up to a very painful lesson learned. There are plenty of disclaimers about using a beta for production work. There is no telling when the next beta release will happen.

You're learning the very heard way that beta versions are not intended to use for production work. If your files ONLY exist in the cloud, you'll have to wait until the next Beta is released. There is no other way of retrieving them,

"We have highlighted this with our Engineering team that InDesign Beta has expired, and the team is working on releasing the new version soon. I'll update this discussion as soon as the new version is available.

This morning, Adobe has an update for the InDesign 2024 Beta v. 19.0.1, available from the Creative Cloud application. Look for the update there.

What is happening with InDesign for ARM based PCs? You have canceled my beta version, and I can no longer work? Will I be getting a prorated refund for no longer having full access to Adobe apps? VERY FRUSTRATED WITH ADOBE!

No news on a solution to this problem after 24 hours? InDesign is a productivity tool, and the beta version is the only one that works on an ARM PC? Are there now thousands of us in this situation? Such negligence is unacceptable. No communication whatsoever; users are left in the dark.

Bonjour,

Avez-vous des nouvelles concernant ce problème ?

De notre côté, la situation est toujours inchangée : nous sommes bloqués, InDesign ne fonctionne plus du jour au lendemain.

Pour nous, InDesign est un outil de travail professionnel, que nous utilisons au quotidien et pour lequel nous payons un abonnement. Il n’est pas normal de ne plus pouvoir l’utiliser sans solution de contournement, ni communication claire sur la résolution du bug.

Pouvez-vous nous indiquer :

  • si le problème est bien identifié par vos équipes,
  • s’il existe une solution temporaire ou un contournement,
  • et dans quels délais une correction est envisagée ?

Merci d’avance pour votre retour, car la situation a un impact direct sur notre activité.

I was unaware until after I bought my Snapdragon laptop that I would have to use beta versions. The deal thatt came with itspurchase was one months subscription to Creative Cloud, so its a bit unfair to tell people they were taking a risk when this information was not disclosed in the marketing material for their devices!
