Wacom tablet settings nonfunctional
Wacom tablet setting for InDesign CC 2019 won't show or function in the active application. The touch ring and radial menu setting do not show up. The default settings appear instead. The screen grabs demonstrate how the touch ring behaves with the four default functions; autoscroll/Zoom, Cycle Layers, Brush Size and Canvas Rotation.

Read only randomly occurs when saving
InDesign CC randomly goes into read only mode when we go to File>Save. Our only option at that point is to go to Save As and rename the file. This is clunky, scary, and should not be happening. We have new iMacs with Mojave OS.

Arabic
Using Adobe Arabic font, and paragraph set to Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer, when I copy in Arabic with a period at the end of the sentence, InDesign is interpreting the period as Roman/English text and placing it to the far right of the sentence, instead of at the end of the sentence (far left).
This is new since I last worked in these files in March of this year.

[ID-4228495]Export Tagging: ‘i’ character in class name exports as blank space
I just did the 2018 update, so I think it's the most recent version: 13.0 x64
I have a document template that contains many character and paragraph styles with export CSS tags that contain the lowercase ‘i’ in them. This character is being exported as a blank space, which completely breaks the CSS, like this:
should be: <p class="bright"></p>
getting: <p class="br ght"></p>This problem was easily replicated in a fresh new document, so it’s something with InDesign, rather than my template file.
This workflow involves complex style mapping through to CSS classes. Because so many of the classes contain…

typekit fonts missing but return when InDesign is restarted twice
InDesign CC 13.1 x64
This bug happens every time I open an InDesign file that has a typekit font (any typekit font)
The typekit font will show as active in my Creative Cloud assets panel. The expected result would be for the file to open with the fonts synced.
Actual result: InDesign tells me that the fonts are not synced. The only way to fix it is to close and open the entire program twice.
The third time the file is opened in the program, InDesign will show that the fonts are synced.

Page Margins Bug
I am having a bug/issue with margins. In the page setup and the properties dialogues the measurements are showing as the defaults, but clearly they have been changed as noted in the attached file. This file was created in an earlier version of INDD.
3 votesThe Document Setup shows the Margins of the document when it was created or margins that will be assigned to any new pages you add to the document. However, you can override margins of individual pages by using the Margins and Columns dialog. And this is what has been done for the Page – the Top and Outside margins have been set to 25mm and 45mm respectively (changed from their default setting of 12.7mm).
Hope this helps.Adobe InDesign team

Keyboard shortcuts don't work if only one file is open.
When I have just one file open in Indesign, the keyboard shortcuts don't work. Open another file, they start working again. Or, wait long enough, then they start working with just one file open. All keyboard shortcuts, not just some.

Clicking on image doesn't show it in the Links panel
Clicking on an image within a frame doesn't show it in the Links panel, so I have to scroll through the list of links to find the image - This sometimes works, sometimes does not.

No Hyphenation in CC 2019 (ver. 14)
Hi there – it seems that the CC 2019 (v. 14) can't Hyphenate. I use – without luck – the checkbox in the Control Panel. Have I missed a secret Button?

Background Tasks Palette too wide
The Background Tasks Palette is too wide compared to other palettes in the UI (MacOS).
I dock several palettes together to save real estate on my monitor. When I focus on most palettes, the width is 240 pixels, but the Background Tasks palette can't be made narrower than 400 pixels – a 66% increase! If there was a reason to have this palette be so wide I'd understand the limitation, but most of the relevant information in that palette would easily fit within the 240 width.7 votes -
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.

Anchored Textframes with Auto adjusting height within a Textfreame
- CC 2018 – 13.1 (Can't update to CC 2019 right now because of Plugins)
- Create a big "master" Text frame
- Create 2 more text frames that auto adjust in height and fill them with lorem ipsum or any text.
- Paste those two text frames into the first created "master" Text frame
- Change the Text in the first Text frame (Add some empty lines or remove text) and see InDesign fail to update.
- Expected result: Should be pretty obvious... InDesign should not fail to update the current view.
- Actual Result: All Textframes are misaligned because InDesign does not update correctly – If…

Importing Microsoft Word files doc. and .docx
Creative Cloud and Office 364 is up-to-date (although this issue happened before the upgrade so it has something to do with the import filter for .docx files into InDesign [this is the first occasion]).
While importing a .docx file, revisions from the word file appeared in the layout text. I noticed as I started to typeset. Scary.
Checked the Word file, upon Select All, references in the text were highlighted in a darker gray. There was no extra text appearing and revisions were all approved and accepted.
Word file was saved as a .dotx file and imported, the mysteriously embedded…

Mp4 not work at "Place from URL" Option
I have place mp4 files from "Place from URL" option in the document and its place nicely when I have prepared epub and publish online then doc display empty page after discussion with adobe they told me that mp4 not compatible, so i have to convert video in FLV extension then it will work, which is impossible for me. MP4 is most useful extension and Adobe need to solve this and make mp4 compatible for it.
Keep in Mind when we place from "Place from URL" Not direct placing of MP4 file, "Place form URL" Option.
Thanks!
