MacOS Big Sur Creative Cloud Download Manager iCon not clearly visible in Apple Menu
MacOS Big Sur Creative Cloud Download Manager iCon is barely showing up at the top of my screen. Since the top control bar in Big Sur is now transparent, I am using a black background so its quite faint. Attaching screen shot. This wasn't an issue with previous OS and had the same black background.

qr
Hi,
We created a business card for our employee, that includes QR code generated within InDesign. When we tested it with Android it reads everything correctly, but when reading QR code with iPhone, it only reads first and last name and job title. We tested with several different Iphones and everywhere the same result. But when we've tested a similar business card from a colleague, it worked ok. Sending both business cards in the attachment. Daniel Fischer's business card is not working correctly on the iPhone.
We are using InDesign 15.1.1 x64

Update to the latest version not possible
After reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe InDesign CC 2018 (version 13.1) on a new Windows computer, it is not possible to update to the latest version 13.1.1.
Even with a new installation of Adobe InDesign, version 13.0, no update is offered.
All update installers should be available for all authorized versions * of the Creative Cloud.5 votes -
installed 2020 and uninstalled 2019, no files not associating with the app
After installing 2020 to edit files created in the latest version, all .indd files are not associated with Indesign at all. When I try to update default settings to associate .indd files with InDesign, the file type .indd is not listed.

Index sorting does not care about language setting
- InDesign 14.0.1 x64
- Create a document.
Add an index reference for the word "Skrå".
Add an index reference for the word "Skrivare".
Add an index reference for the word "Överleva".
Add an index reference for the word "Ondska".Go to index Sort Settings. Select Header Type Finnish/Swedish for the Roman script.
Generate an index.
Observe:
Ondska is placed under O.
Överleva is placed under Ö. Which is at the end of the alphabet. This is as it should be, here in Sweden-land.However:
Skrivare is placed below Skrå. Despite å being placed last in the swedish alphabet. We have "å,…5 votes -

Critical : can't sync fonts from Adobe :
Hello, just like this guy below :
Help! Unable to activate fonts InDesign 2019
I can't sync fonts on indesign from Adobe Fonts. Nothing works. Tried everything.
Tried syncing them from the Adobe Font website, tried in Indesign, uninstalled all indesign versions, restarted preferences, uninstalled adobe cloud.
tried everything,
Deactivating fonts on adobe font website, reactivating them. Doing the same in the cloud app. No fix.
FONTS HAVING ISSUES : Source Sans pro, Open Sans, League Gothic, Fire Sans , Fire Sans 2.
The error message is : "unable to sync one…
5 votesWe’ve seen this issue happen when you have the same Font already installed on your machine.
So you may try going to where your Fonts are installed on Windows machine – (Control panel > Fonts) and uninstall/remove the Fonts that you are unable to Sync from Adobe Fonts.
Hopefully, the problem should get resolved.

Basic Shortcuts Gone
InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator all lost shortcuts such as spacebar hand, zoom, unable to scale boxes in InDesign or constrain placed images, Photoshop you can't constrain a scale with shift. All same in Illustrator. Just noticed these yesterday and assumed it was Mojave, which I installed Saturday. I updated Adobe upgrades but that didn't help.

If Paragraph Format uses Shade, only the first line is underlined (instead of all) (Layer Problem!)
Its not a suggestion, its a bug.
Under Indesign 13.1, when e.g. a whole page is styled to have a gray shade behind it, and some paragraphs have to be undelined, then ALWAYS the Line before a hard return does not show the underline, because I suppose a layer problem occurs. Indesign seems to see the text on top, then applies the shade and under that the underlining for the text, which won't be shown then. The descenders are shown normally, since they are on top in the text layer. I have not found a way to tell the underline…5 votesHi,

Windows recents files (at opening)
Sometimes the files are two times on the panel (same file) and sometimes is a wrong link (opening an other file the icon seems to be).
Quit, refresh, open an other file : nothing to get the right link.
Since the late update march 2018 ; I am on 13.1.
Thank you for resolving idea,
Pierre5 votesWe have recently released InDesign CC 2019 and we believe that this issue should no longer occur.

Error Message "you cannot reverse this change with the edit > undo command".
This comes up continuously. The only way you can dispose of it is by shutting the program down. Apparently I am not the only person, as it been reported before. See the Adobe forum the same problem - forums.adobe.com/thread/2292990
This makes it an official problem not exclusive to my experience.
Do we have fix???

QR code clickable
Hello. I have an idea regarding the InDesign program. It would be great if the generated QR codes in the interactive PDF were clickable. Is it possible to implement this? Currently, I manually assign hyperlinks to each QR code.
