Well, here, at least is a bit of good news: Turns out I did have a good backup...just hiding in a confusing place. So once I can get ID cleaned up and reinstalled, at least I won't have to redo my book from scratch! :^D

Ah...here's what confuses me -- you can't select individual apps in the cleaner itself. Is it OK to clean all when not all are uninstalled?

OK, thanks! I can't remember now what I saw that made me think I had to ditch all of it. ;^)

Thanks, Barb. I've tried everything on that troubleshooting list that I can do without opening the document, and it's a no-go. Here's what's still a problem, though: sometimes ID still won't open at all. Would I be better off reinstalling?

Barb, Again, thanks so much for your help. I did the upgrade, and it appears that the file itself is the problem (sent it to someone in the office, and it crashed his ID, too). Is there any hope for healing a corrupt file? CrashPlan, unbeknownst to me, had decided at some point to stop backing up, so I have no other version of the file, and I confess my lower lip trembles a bit at the thought of having to restart a whole book from scratch. ~V

1. 2017.0 Release, 12.0.0.81 x64 Build. 2. ... 3. Deleted (Attempt to open file. Crash. Restart. Crash before ID opens. Restart.) 4. I don't have the GPU Performance menu option. Thanks! ~V

1. Ummm...I dunno. From what I can see before it crashes, it just says 2017 version. 2. Sometimes it'll let me open ID and get as far as trying to open a file, sometimes it just crashes before it's open. Hmmm...just tried again. It opened, so I tried opening an old file, which opened, and then I tried the file I need to be working on, and it crashed. Corrupt file, do you think? Corrupt file that I juuuuust completed today and only needed to export to PDF? 3. Just the keyboard shortcut. 4. That's a new one to me. How? Thanks, Barb! ~Valerie

I've rebooted. I've shut all the way down, waited a bit, and restarted. Trashed preferences. And still the ever-so-helpful "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly." Any ideas? I'm running CC on Windows 10. Thanks! ~Valerie

Thanks, Pariah. I think if I need a longer-term solution, I'll pursue those. In the meantime, the client said a spreadsheet would be fine, so I just copied and pasted the data for their half-dozen or so books. ~Valerie

I don't think so. This happens when I'm typing directly in InDesign. Well, I'll have typographer's quotes on, and then some random amount of time later, in some random document, they'll suddenly be turned off. Not very helpful data, I know! ;^)

I have a client who wants separate files with just the metadata from several projects. Is there a way to export that directly? Thanks. ~Valerie

Turns out all I needed to do was actually run spell check. The red squiggles just stay there after the language is changed, otherwise.

Thanks, Willi. That was the problem -- it was set to Arabic. So I switched it back to English, but, hmmmm, it's still red-squigglifying everything. No character styles applied.

I'm working in a document that someone else started, and for some reason it's switched the user dictionary to Arabic and doesn't want to let me switch it back. Any solution I haven't thought of yet? ~Valerie

It is a constant struggle for me to select anchors and handles. Maybe my eye-hand coordination is just impossibly bad, but it seems to me that they're just too stinkin' tiny. I've got the largest size selected in my preferences, but honestly, I can't tell the difference. Is there anything else I can do to improve the situation, or am I just going to have to improve my attitude about it? Thanks! ~Valerie

That's helpful to know. Especially since it will allow me to feel less guilty about being unable to wield those features! I am definitely flying by the seat of my pants on this stuff, having gleaned from YouTube just enough to squeak by. If you've got any recommendations for learning it better, I'd sure love to hear 'em! ~Valerie

What I do is create a character style for the Greek. If I'm using a serif font that doesn't have Greek characters, I go with Times New Roman (not my favorite, but in small doses, it's not too objectionable). Here's a screen shot of a book I'm working on now: And here's a list of fonts that do the Greek thing: Type Greek.com » Greek Fonts
