2020 moving pages
If I move pages that have hyperlinks from a 2019 ID version (converted), the move crashes ID 2020. The only way to get the move to stop crashing ID 2020 is to delete all the hyperlinks in the source ID doc that was converted from ID 2019.
Version is ID 15.0.1 ... and doing a reboot didn't fix it. I also saved the converted file as IDML to try and remove the "corruption" (that has worked in the past) and the re-constituted INDD file still crashes ID 2020.
If I try to copy and paste a text block with links…

Copying anchored object from one ID doc to another crashes ID 15.0 on WIN 10
An anchored object text frame, with content and formatting copied from one ID Doc to another, will crash ID (15.0 x64 WIN 10). Same action in ID (14.03) works perfectly.

Indesign 2020 Crashing when deleting color swatches
Indesign 2020 has been repeatedly crashing when a color swatch (or multiple swatches) in a document are deleted and replaced with an existing swatch. Indesign crashes the moment "ok" is pressed on the "Delete Swatches" popup.
This has been happening since I updated to InDesign 2020, approximately 10 times in the past week, most, but not every, time that I delete swatches. This has happened in multiple documents, regardless of whether it is a single swatch or group of swatches being deleted.

InDesign 2020 freezes when placing articles with endnotes (big file)
Working with a approximately 500 paged book, 30 articles with endnotes.
Now with 20 articles / 300 pages done, InDesign 2020 freezes when placing new articles.
Please, please, please: fix the issue with a possibility to keep all endnotes in a separate ID-file (linking endnotes to other ID-files)! Because of this, now forced to have the whole, massive book in one ID-file.

Indesign freezes when loading .indd files from server
Every time I try to open a file with .indd extension from our server the program crashes-stops working, therefore I "force quit".
It starts loading up to the point of the "missing links" notification message (if there are any) and it stops responding-freezes.Tho when this same file is copied to the desktop it opens just fine.
Why and what is the reason and most importantly what is the solution for this problem?

12/05/19 Updates in Indesign
Update on 12/05/19 caused stability issues in Indesign. Since this update, my indesign has been crashing, unresponsive, and about as bad as AI. This program is my workhorse and I need it to function. Documents take about 5-10 minutes to open, even longer to save, and scrolling in multi-page documents is tough because it lags so hard.

Adobe InDesign CC2017 not working on MacOS Catalina
Adobe indesign CC 2017 ne fonstionne pas du tout sur mon Mac depuis que la mise à jour MacOS CAtalina a été installé.
3 votesMacOS 10.15(Catalina) is not supported platform for Adobe InDesign CC2017.
In macOS10.15 Apple enforced strict 64bit rules . Older apps having 32bit components won’t be able to run on Catalina.
InDesign CC 2017 also has few 32bit components hence, it will not run properly on macOS10.15.Recommendation:
Either move back to macOS10.14 OR update Adobe InDesign to latest version that is complete 64bit. -
Applescript Droplet: InDesign 2020 issue
A much used droplet to export one or more InDesign documents to PDF (with dialog and settings) will not work with InDesign 2020 (v15.0.0.155) anymore (fine with InDesign CC 2019). InDesign 2020 opens the first (or the only) document. I can select options in the upcoming dialogue box, but then crashes immediately by clicking OK with an error message (see screenshot).
However, the same base code of the script works directly from InDesign to export the active document to PDF without any problems.
InDesign 2020 may not handle "on open ..." and / or "repeat with ..." in the droplet…

Stroke edit crash
I create a line with either the pen tool or the line tool. I select the line and open the properties palette. I select the 'stroke' button and open the stroke palette. I click the 'line end' or 'line beginning' to change the end to an arrow, bullet end, etc. InDesign hangs for a moment and then crashes.
I have submitted multiple crash reports from the crash window that pops up and have received no response from Adobe. It has been going on for months.4 votesTo identify the cause of this issue, we had started our investigation with the aim to resolve it.
