The following worked for me: Editting the shortcut pre-settings. I was goint nuts with this, also.

InDesign 2022...

i shut down CHROME and SAFARI, and that didn't work.
but when i closed EXCEL, that did the trick.
InDesign spacebar now works.

Still a bug, indesign 2022... I dont get why this keeps coming back to every singel version of indesign I have ever had.

This is F'ng infuriating... just got a new laptop, and can't figure out what is causing this. Why is this still a problem YEARS later?! No matter what software I quit, the shortcuts don't come back until I restart, so I can't figure out what may be causing the conflict.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr!

same, after quitting etc. This has been a problem for years. Why is it so hard to fix it?

Same issue, so frustrating!!!

FIX THE ISSUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same issue for me

The hand tool shortcut intermittently working has been a problem for several versions now. FIX IT PLEASE!

The same, came from nothing. Version 16.0.2.

This problem is happening for me.. updated to Big Sur and now I cannot move with space and mouse. indesign version 16.0.2

Same here but Adobe InDesign 15.1.2

Quitting the web browser worked but not a good workaround. Please fix.

I have a new macbook pro with new CC softwear and NOT using Chrome, so what is the real issue? Been using this since ID Version 1.o its a GoTO and must have.

Hey Adobe, THIS IS NOT OKAY! Closing your browser is not an efficient nor appropriate solution.

What if all web browsers are closed and the problem persists? The only fix at the moment is a full restart until it inevitably comes back again.

EDIT: I found a fix here that has worked for me

Bug is back and worse than ever in ID 2020. It's because Chrome is open.

I've the same problem on InDesign CS5 (French Version). The shortcut doesn't exist ! :-(

Close all your webbrowsers and try again.
