Unable to place text in frame over an existing text frame
When making a new frame on top of an existing text frame. It is not possible to make the new frame a text frame. It clicks right through it.

pinwheel
InDesign versions 15.1.4, 16.4, and 17.0
Mac, system Big Sur 11.6.1There are no steps or expected results other than stability and quick performance.
No matter what I am doing—working with text or images, scrolling, working in menus, etc.—I am experiencing the rainbow pinwheel and delays of 30 seconds to a few minutes while the application is hung up. This is happening every couple minutes. Work that should take 15 minutes is taking 30 or more.
I've tried disabling the preflight, changed the display performance to typical, allowed greeking, etc., but nothing has helped. I first experienced this in version…

Large Black Cursor only while working in inDesign?
The cursor is still not my default cursor, it is large and black and very annoying. I was wondering if anyone from Adobe has addressed this issue. I have looked at previous post and have not noticed anything that would change the cursor but only change the scaling of the entire program.

Find/change 15.1.3, Windows 10
Find/change does not work when a character style (e.g. italic) is selected.
Have closed program and started it again, and it works for words selected, but could not get it to find this question mark character ?, nor would it change format of a word to italics when this was selected under the Find Format and/or Change Format boxes. Following this I also found it would not find a selected word with no formatting changes requested.1 vote -

CC dropping non-adobe fonts overnight and having to un-install and re-install everyday
Since the last update (3/9/21) CC drops non-adobe (Avenir) fonts from Indesign overnight. Every morning I'm having to un-install and re-install the fonts as even though they are installed Indesign can't see them. Why is this? It's most annoying as it's our corporate font and having to do this every day wastes time.

corner options
InDesign 16.3 CC download, Win64: In previous versions of InDesign I could select a text or image box, open the 'corner options' drop-down list, and arrow/scroll through the options to see the effect of each on the selected box. In InDesign CC, I can arrow through the list but no effects are shown on the selected box. Instead, it takes 12 clicks to re-open and then select the next of the six options. I have posted this problem in the community, with responses from Bill Silbert and Steve Werner. They have concurred that it's a Bug.

Cannot see open file windows (v 16.3.2)
I upgraded to InDesign v 16.3.2 this morning and now I am not able to use it, as file windows are not visible. The Windows menu lists the files that are open, but they cannot be seen.
Update: discovered that files can be seen if Application Frame is switched off under the Windows menu, but nothing can be seen if it's switched on again.

CC Library panel freezes and is unusable until InDesign is re-launched
In the last update or perhaps the one prior, the CC Library panel freezes and is unusable. You can't select anything, search for anything, or change libraries.
Closing the panel and opening it again has no affect.
The only workaround is to quit and re-launch InDesign. The panel will then work for a time but will freeze again at some point.
This horrendous bug is in addition to a new annoying one where you can't drag and drop a graphic from the document INTO the CC Library panel to add it. You have to select the graphic, then click the…

Files are not opening
None of my InDesign files are opening. I have fully updated the software and all files have been edited on the most recent version. I have tried to also reset InDesign preferences, however this does not work either. Please advise!

Guides Not Working
Guides simply do not work. I've used InDesign since it was created and no matter what I do sometimes guides work in this latest version sometimes they don't even within the same document on different pages. No solution to date. I'm running iMac 4k Catalina version. 10.15.7
3.5 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5.16.3.2

InDesign 2021 does not open new or existing file when starting software program on a iMacPro 2012 laptop.
I have been trying to open a 2020 doc file in the 2021 version of InDesign. I am able to select the file and once I select it, nothing happens afterwards. Same thing occurs after I create a totally new document.
