[ID-4273763] Indesign 21.0.2 packaging not compatible on macOS 26 Tahoe
Indesign 21.0.2 packaging fails on machines updated to macOS 26 Tahoe.
When a file is packaged an error message is returned, indicating an error when copying links.
This error does not appear when the same file is packaged on a system using an older mac OS. (Sonoma 14.6.1)Our team has checked all linked files for corrupt files, errors in naming, missing links - there are none of these errors across our files.
This is a recurring error for any Indesign version 21.02.2 and older on machines updated to macOS 26 Tahoe. We have tried various files on various computers, recieving the same error each time.

Same here with macOS 26.2 and InDesign 21.1 – worked with macOS 15.7.2. No Links missing.
Permissions have ben checked (they were okay), but also deleted and reset again.
I can open, place and use everything from the NAS, just as packaging starts, Indesign does not want to. -

Yep, I had the same error when trying to create the package.
NOTE: no missing links from my side.

I've seen this and it could be a permissions issue, which happens with each OS upgrade. Where are the links located and did you give permission for InDesign to access those folders? Check System Settings > Privacy & Security > Files & Folders. Or grant InDesign full disk access.
