InDesign CS3 Unexpectedly quits
Installed InDesign CS3 (actually all of Creative Suite 3 Standard) on a brand new MacPro Intel G5 running Leopard about 5 weeks ago (2 GB ram). (Ran all updates that were available at the time.) All CS3 products were working fine until InDesign started crashing when starting up with the "unexpectedly quit" message. (Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat portions still fine.) In Design had only been started 5-6 times since the initial install was completed.
Have since run OS 10.5.4 update and InDesign 5.0.3 update (and permissions repair, of course). Still will not start. Have dumped InDesign preferences and all Adobefnt.lst files. Have tried starting in safe mode and root user. Still crashes. (Three other older computers with same software - 2 Intel G5s and 1 G4 - are all fine, so it's not like I don't know what I'm doing at all!)
I'm thinking I may have to dump InDesign and reinstall it with all of its updates. I'd really rather figure out what caused the problem and fix that, so I don't have to deal with this yet again.
Upon InDesign startup, it seems to get past the "startup services" portion and crashes on something that has "..SING.." in it. This goes so fast, though (on every computer), that I cannot pick up on the complete phrase.
Anyone know what this "SING" thing is, and what could make it corrupt?
Thanks.

Re: InDesign CS3 Unexpectedly quits
Addendum to my original post . . . I found something about "SING" in the knowledgebase where it indicated permissions might need to be expanded on that file to include the user being able to read and right. I've done this but to no avail.
What loads immediately after this "SING" thing? I've tried to read this on other computers, but it's just too fast. That could be where InDesign on this computer is crashing, but I don't know what to look for, since I cannot read it at all.
Thanks again.

Re: InDesign CS3 Unexpectedly quits
Hi Ginny,
I have the exact same problem.
I thought it might have been a font issue but I've closed suitecase etc, dont really want to uninstall IND every time this happens as I have many plug ins and settings which i hate having to reload.
Running ox 10.5.8 and Indesign 5.0.4
Have you had any luck with this issue at all?
thanks
Tom
