Adobe InDesign

There is no InDesign 16.4 - 8 days after MacUpdate reported it. Maybe you guys jumped the gun?

Today is June 23rd, the newest version of InDesign still is 16.2.1 So what are you shownig here, macupdate? Updates which do not exist? Bad impression of this site, really.

3 stars on Big Sur... crash still on exit... am i losing my work? no, maybe...

Adobe InDesign is a clean page layout program. You can combine all your graphics from Illustrator and Photoshop to create multiple page breaks and layouts. Newer versions of Adobe InDesign at crackplease have more interactive output options. You can create e-books for devices like a Kindle. You can also create schemas for viewing on tablets such as the iPad.

I won't need to upgrade from InDesign CS6 until I need a 64bit app, after macOS 10.15 comes out next year. By then Affinity Publisher will be out of beta. If it can handle my InDesign files, I will be switching. Assuming Serif follows the pricing policy they use with Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer, it will cost $50 for a single standalone license—no subscription necessary. I've used InDesign for years but cannot afford the Adobe tax. Though the blurb above says you can get InDesign for $9.99 a month if you're a previous InDesign customer, there is no way on their purchase page to get that discount. Maybe they'll lower the price once Publisher has stolen some of their customers, but I'm not holding my breath.

2 many f. beachballs! Jesus Adobe!!!!

Meh.

The new Quark $400 competitive update looks like a pretty good deal to me. It is certainly better then sticking with an old copy of InDesign CS6 I think.

I can't find it here at MU (which is weird), but feel I should post a link to VivaDesigner for all those who are getting fed up with the Adobe subscription model that simply isn't delivering its money worth of updates and improvements. At this stage I have no experience with VivaDesigner, but the info on their website sounds promising. http://www.viva.us/en/products/desktop-publishing/vivadesigner-desktop-version

One star for one bug fix out of dozens! From CS6 Adobe introduced a range of bugs to torment book designers! The bug that is fixed at flaming last is the fatal error InDesign Must shut down if you dare to change the page size with anything locked on the page, but they have introduced an extra level to the main bug, as a book designer a mechanical is made by making the document the page width + page width + spine! the height is the height, to change the spine you add or take away from the default spine width, but whereas anything in the slug used to move randomly, the get around was to group the items, not bless their cotton socks they have made the App randomly move thing regardless of if they are grouped or not! This is a major BUG as far as book cover designers are concerned we have to change spines all the time, so this breaks every workflow out there, to have these bugs present for so long is a disgrace! But at least we do not have the fatal error now, instead if the folds are locked InDesign just moves them anyway - IDIOTS!

I despise Adobe on many levels. Their shitty application frame implementation and subsequent Houdini interface disappearing act is so aggravating over time. Will those corporate monopolistic thieves ever get in line with Apple's windowing system? I've wasted so much time fixing this issue over and over, year after year. I really hope Serif's desktop publishing offering (makers of Affinity Photo and Designer) will allow me to FINALLY FORGET ABOUT ADOBE ALTOGETHER. InDesign is really the only app left I cannot yet replace.

Thank you for sharing Information. https://www.cracksoftpc.com/2016/08/adobe-universal-patcher-adobe-cc-2015-free.html

So CC 2017. A few miserable tweaks and this is a 'new and improved' version for all us suckers who are paying $100s a year for the pleasure. For now I'm stuck with it due to workflow and industry expectations, but I can't wait for Affinity Publisher to give Adobe a run for their (our!) money next year.

Crashing on launch for me on new 5K iMac running Sierra. I would recommended not upgrading to Sierra if InDesign is part of your workflow. I've submitted bug reports to Adobe but no fixes yet, which is unacceptable considering they had access to the new macOS beta for months, just like every other developer.

Thanks Fro information. It is best software from adobe. And thanks for sharing https://www.cracksoftpc.com/2016/08/adobe-indesign-cc-2015.html

I would give it 10 stars if I could... if for no other reason than to offset all the wining babies in here who probably don't even own a legal copy to begin with.

Software has lots of features, if only they would behave the way they should. The bugs that were in CS6 are still present and introduced a whole slew of new ones. This program crashes constantly, to the point were I'm considering going back to Quark. Even when the program is working it feels like it's not. Indesign doesn't seem to like large documents which is ironic since thats what it's for. Redraw is slow, changes are slow, everything about this program is slow. Did anybody at Adobe even test this program before they released it? I'm trying to do a document that's 100 pages but can't because of a span bug. Come on Adobe, if you want my money build something I can use.

Our PlugIn-Developer: Unfortunately, we have run some tests, and our latest version of the inDesign Plugin is not compatible with ADOBE InDesign CC 2015. The reason for this incompatibility is that ADOBE has not released yet the SDKs corresponding to this CC 2015 version, and we need these SDKs to build our inDesign plugin. As of now, no schedule has been provided by ADOBE. In the past, it took several weeks for ADOBE to release these SDKs after the release of a new version of ADOBE inDesign. Once we have these SDKs, we will upgrade our inDesign plugin. Until then, the only thing you can do is to revert to the former version of ADOBE inDesign (if possible), or to use another computer where the ADOBE inDesign version has not been upgraded to CC 2015. Thank you ADOBE that we can always have a new version...that can't be used for weeks in the beginning.

A serious crashing bug exists with this version (and perhaps others) that has been widely reported in the Adobe Forums and elsewhere, where InDesign reports that "the connection to the server has been lost" and then shuts down completely, generating a crash report. It will happen even if you are working locally and not using a remote server. It can happen at any time and happens fairly frequently for many people. In an 8 hour day it could easily crash a dozen times. Nobody seems to know the cause and least of all Adobe, which can't seem to fix the issue if it's even trying. I personally suspect that the server it is trying to connect to is Adobe's own validation server, which would explain why it happens even when not opening a document locally. This is VERY shoddy for high-end software, but I guess this is what we can expect from an arrogant manufacturer that enjoys a dominant position in the market. Shameful effort, Adobe. Just shameful. If ever there was a application what was ripe for serious competition (Quark dropped that ball long ago) it's InDesign.

I'm pretty sure v10.0.0.70 {really, Adobe?) has been around since July. So what's new that it's posted here on August 25?
