1. Unable to launch Adobe InDesign as you do not have sufficient permissions to access the preferences folders.

   I can't even open InDesign anymore, I keep getting an error message that says "Unable to launch Adobe InDesign as you do not have sufficient permissions to access the preferences folders. Ensure that you have appropriate permissions and then restart Adobe InDesign." I've changed permissions on every folder and file to "Read & Write" that I thought would help make it work but nothing is working. I was trying to open the latest version of ID, even undownloaded and tried using CC 2017 to no avail. I need this fixed ASAP.

   MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017)
   MacOS High Sierra Version 10.13.3

   Please let me know what other information you need.

6. InCopy Assignments Updates Crash InDesign

   I have an InDesign book file housing several InDesign files that are news page documents with InCopy assignments. When I open the .indd files from the .indb file and a story has been updated (update links dialogue) when I click on "update links" InDesign crashes. I've clicked "don't update links" and it doesn't crash. However, when I go to the page that needs updating and I click update in the assignments panel, InDesign crashes.
   This all happened before and after I reset my InDesign preferences.

8. InDesign crashes when mounting/updating another InDesign document with overset text

   InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.0.1
   Operating System: macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
   Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

   Steps to reproduce the issue:
   1. Create a new document in InDesign with at least 3 pages.
   2. Make a textbox on one of the pages (e.g. page 1) and fill it with some text.
   3. Resize the textbox so that some text overset and preflight shows 1 error - overflowing text.
   4. Save and close the document
   5. Create a new InDesign document
   6. Place the InDesign file with the overflowing textbox in the new InDesign document (NOTE: You need to place the page which actually has the overflowing text). You should get an error message that the document you want to place is containing overflowing text. Click OK.
   7. Alt+Double Click / Opt+Double Click on the placed document in order to edit it.
   8. Do some edits in the document, e.g. duplicate the textbox with the overflowing text by holding ALT while moving it. Make sure that you still have overset text in the document.
   9. Save the document, and close it by clicking CMD+W or File->Close. This should automatically lead you back to the document where you placed the document, and InDesign should try to automatically update the placed document with the new content.

   Expected result:
   InDesign should update the contents of the placed InDesign document, and not crash, regardless of whether the placed InDesign document contains overset text or not.

   Actual result:
   In my case, InDesign crashes at the end of step 9 when trying to update the placed document containing overset text. I have attached a screenshot, in addition to the crash reports generated by Apple/Adobe at this time. InDesign shows the following error message (translated from Norwegian to English): "Error: Adobe InDesign is exiting. A serious error occured. Restart InDesign to restore work in any InDesign-documents that isn't archived." It also shows a dialog box which warns you about overset text on pages in the placed document.

   Extra notes and comments:
   If InDesign didn't crash in step 9, you can try to go to the "Links" panel and update the link to the placed document, if it didn't update automatically. In general you should also try placing and updating InDesign documents containing overset text into another InDesign document, and this error should occur eventually.

   In my experience InDesign crashes very often due to this error when using a workflow which requires mounting other InDesign documents, which might contain overset text accidentally. In the workflow that we use, this error is very devastating leading to InDesign crashing up to several times per day (or per hour) in certain periods.

   The error most consistently occurs when doing some changes in a document containing overset text, and then updating it in InDesign, as described in the steps to reproduce the error. However, the error has also occured when placing the document, not just while updating it.

   I have also experienced that this error occurs even when there just are some extra lines at the end of the textbox, so that text technically overflows, but no preflight error appears because the overflowing text is just empty lines/paragraphs. This makes the bug extra difficult to avoid, because the overflowing text could be in any textbox in the document, even though no error is showed.

   This error has occured consistently over several InDesign and OS versions, at least for several years, probably since the feature to place another InDesign document was introduced.

   InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.0.1
   Operating System: macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
   Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

   Steps to reproduce the issue:
   1. Create a new document in InDesign with at least 3 pages.
   2. Make a textbox on one of the pages (e.g. page 1) and fill it with some text.
   3. Resize the textbox so that some text overset and preflight shows 1 error - overflowing text.
   4. Save and close the document
   5. Create a new InDesign document
   6. Place the InDesign file with the overflowing textbox in the new InDesign document (NOTE: You… more

11. Index Panel's Update Preview Button Causes Hard Crash

    The Index panel will cause InDesign to crash if you click the update preview button when a three-layer index entry has no text in the second layer.

    I figured out what causes the crash with 100% reproducable results. Here's how you do it.

    1) Create a multi-document book.
    2) Open one document in the book.
    3) Create an index entry with three layers. For example, 'dogs > breed > beagle'.
    4) Open a different document in the book.
    5) Repeat step 3 in this different document, with the same entry data.
    6) In the Index panel you will see two entries that are both three layers deep. Toggle the layer arrows and then double click the second layer heading of 'breed'. Delete the text in the box and hit enter.
    7) You will notice in the Index panel that there is a blank space beneath 'dog' and above 'beagle.'
    8) Now click the 'cycle' refresh button at the bottom of the Index panel.
    9) InDesign will crash.

    From a programming perspective I suspect this has something to do with no data being in the entry's second layer. It's finding 'null' and crashing.

    Indesign 2018 is a disaster, full of bugs and crashes at any time.
    This was a good program, but now it's just a misery. Costs both time and money.
    I will work with older versions in the future and hope that any new player will find a better software.

    It would not be wrong with a phone number on the website, but you're probably ashamed.

16. InDesign Corrupt files

    InDesign users all have to deal with corrupt files sometime during their career using this program. Usually meaning lost time and, more importantly, money. It would be nice if there was a way to have InDesign or another program scan and fix corrupt files (Adobe FirstAid). Dumping this corrupt file into this program would scan the file, find the cause of the error, and isolate it--almost like a virus scanner. Even if this means a page is lost or margins are messed up. It would be nice to at least get some work saved. For example, I throw in a file that keeps causing InDesign to crash. It scans the file. It finds that their is some markup code in a text box on page 23 out of 122 that is throwing an error. This text box is removed, maybe even a red box is put in its place so I know what has been taken out.

    With the release of InDesign 2020(15.0.1), we have enhanced our recovery workflow which fixes multiple scenarios of document corruption.

    If your file is still not getting repaired in InDesign CC2020, can you please share the document with Grp-idfile@adobe.com.

    To identify the cause of this issue, we had started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.

    We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the finding : Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent in nature at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.

    We recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2020 (if you’re not already on it). It contains a lot of stability fixes.

    If you still face this issue even after updating to the latest version of InDesign, please submit the crash report to us. (The guidelines to submit crash are available at (https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/submit-crash-reports.html)
    We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.

18. Cannot open file due to deleting hyperlinks in Indesign CC 2018

    I was deleting the list of hyperlinks in my file and it crashed. So I kept saving the file after every hyperlink I had deleted so that I can find out which one was the root problem, but now I cannot even open the file as it just crashes immediately it opens. At this moment in time I have to do the whole job again.
