    Hello everyone,
    I build a 24-page community newspaper using CS2 on a Mac G4. I was making a series of changes from my editor when I realized I should be doing this to a copy of the original file.

    I used the Undo command repeatedly to back out to where I was when I started making the changes, when InDesign quit on me. After restarting InDesign, I found that I’m not able to open the file.

    I can open other InDesign files but not this one.

    I’ve tried trashing the prefs file, the RecoveryData file, and the InDesign SaveData file, all to no avail.

    Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

    Thanks,
    Bill

    G’day

    Did you also trash the .idlk file that would have been generated in the same folder as the .indd file?
