Opening ID files from server: Missing required parameter
I've been using my Apple Time Capsule connected to my WiFi-Router as a wireless HD for a couple of years now. Since I updated to Mac OS 11 (Big Sur) I cannot open InDesign (v 16.0.1) files directly from my Time Capsule. I get an error which should translate to something like "Missing required parameter "form" for method "open" (see attached). When I copy the file on my desktop everything works like a charm.

Find text plays an error sound when I press Return, even though it finds the text
I have been working with indesign for a few months and already sent in about 10 bug reports. I feel like everytime I open the program I find a new issue. My colleagues say I have a knack for crashing programs or finding issues. I have a very similar problem with PS. I'm really frustrated with the UI and I can't imagine I'm the only one. I know this is a long shot, but feel free to contact me if you need a bug-spotter, because it feels like I found a lot already. And I have more issues that probably…

Paragraph style outline cuts through text
After reopening chapters I sometimes find the outline of a paragraph going through the text instead of below it. I can't relyably reproduce it, but it has happened several times.

Cannot delete empty pages
I have empty pages at the end of my chapter. There are text frames on them, because they got created automatically. There is no content in the text frames. If I delete the page, it's gone until I scroll, then it re-appears. If I delete the text frame, the page duplicates itself. I've seen the issue described in the forums, but the solution is such a hack.

Some spreads gone grey and only export as blank pages
I have an account report getting some problems. Some spreads have suddenly gone grey - as you see in screenshot. In the Pages panel they appear blank and when I export them - also blank. When I try to fix the page or add a new one the program unexpectedly quits.
I think this is an error from the file.1 vote -
Shortcuts 'Open' and 'New' not working when ID starts for the first time after quit
Key commands for 'Open' and 'New' are not working when InDesign starts for the first time after quit or restart.
However as a workaround I've discovered I can get things working again if I go to InDesign > Preferences > General and just click OK . For some reason that brings the functionality back.
Please provide a patch soon :)
I'm on ID 2021 version 16.0

Y coordinates incorrect when pasting objects on pages with different heights
I have several pages with different heights. If I paste an object using "paste in place" from page to page, they do not paste in the correct Y location from the original. However, the X location is correct.

Email Hyperlink Breaks
In the Hyperlinks panel, Email hyperlinks that include a subject that includes an ampersand will change from an Email-type to a URL-type when you click OK. Status will then appear as a red dot in the Hyperlinks panel instead of an envelope. Opening it again from the Hyperlinks panel will show the subject gone and in a URL format.
TO TEST - Highlight text in your document. Open the Hyperlinks Panel. Create a new hyperlink with the [+] button at the bottom of the panel, choose email as the type, type a valid email address, then enter a subject line…

Crash: book-panel shows unopened file as opened, when saving Indesign crashes
I noticed an issue with the book panel.
For some reason sometimes it shows the icon for "file is open" on some files even though they're not opened in Indesign.When I open and want to save them, Indesign want me to define a filelocation again. It seems that Indesign lost the connection to the original file then.
When saving the file (I usually overwrite the existing one) Indesign crashes.
See attached screenshot for the "opened file"-icon in the book panel.

stroke size not matching
In the new InDesign (16.0) stroke sizes don't always match. I can put a 3-point stroke on two different objects and one looks as expected and the other is extremely thin.

Indesign Links not Updating after double clicking
Indesign links not updating even after double clicking the link and the image where the link isn't updated. This used to work as usual in the last versions of CC. Currently using Indesign CC v.16. I have to close the program completely to have the link display correctly.
What I did was: I edited an image with the photoshop clicking in the right-click menu inside Indesign. Then when I came back to indesign it doesn't update. This has happened for the last months.

Measurement tool not working on ID 2021
The measurement tool does not work very well in Indesign 2021. Most of the time there is no reaction to mouse clicks and if you eventually managed to create a measurement line, it is very hard to move the endpoints to a new location.

Unable to Save Document
Indesign 15.1
Opened file I have worked on before. Added some text. Went to 'undo' an action and couldn't with key command or 'Edit>Undo'.
Then thought I would try and close out of Indesign and restart to see if that helped. Tried to save file. Could not save file with key command or 'File>Save'.
Options—Save, Save As, CheckIn, Save A Copy, and Revert—are all grayed out and unusable, as well as many options under the Edit menu as well.3 votes -
Reopen last closed/unsaved document(s)
You should be able to reopen the last closed/unsaved document(s) in case you accidentally close a document and click "Don't Save."
The Chrome browser has a similar feature: "reopen closed tabs." And Google Docs allows you to view and restore all previous versions of a document.
With Indesign, if you accidentally click "don't save" the document is gone forever, according to the support person I spoke to. You can't find it in the archive folder and you can't "undo" that either.
I was on deadline and accidentally closed a large car dealer ad with 20 cars in it and in…
