Greyed out screen when I open InDesign
Help! I am desperate to figure out why this was happening. I recently cleaned out my computer library/cache to free up storage, then updated to InDesign 2023. For the past couple hours I keep getting this screen. Everything is updated, but I have no idea how to fix this.

Creative cloud libraries tool displaying smaller than frame 2023
The CC libraries tool panel appears at a reduced % of the actual window frame size. Sometimes it's usable (in tiny format) but other times you can't actually click on anything.
Have uninstalled and reinstalled the software and the problem remains.
Also for what it's worth it only started happening when I installed on my new PC laptop (no issue in same software version but on old laptop)

Parent page export differently gradient levels left to right
When exporting facing pages with mirrored background images and gradient settings, all left pages seem to be darker and slightly warmer. The files are placed and linked to the same image from my hard drive and even swapping each image left to right causes the same bug. I even made a new parent page from scratch with the same issue. Pages look exactly the same in Indesign preview. The issue reverses when exporting a JPEG, where the left page is lighter and the right is darker.

Crash on pdf export
We do a lot of sometimes large presentations in Indesign that have other external Indesign documents in them, that pdf fine, yet when I add pages to them it crashes when I export and there's nothing I can do to fix it other than removing the pages I've added.

Object Layer Options is broken in v18.3
When turning off a layer in a placed PSD file with "Object Layer Options", other layers in the PSD are also turned off, even though their respective visibility icons indicate they are showing.
See the attached file. The "Gradient Map 100" layer makes the image purple. However, when hiding the "Generative Layer 1" layer, the effect of the former layer is broken.

Paragraph Keep Options to "Start on next Odd Page" confused by Text Wrap
Noticed a strange behaviour with keep options. If Keep Options says to start on next odd page, and there is Text Wrap that makes the upcoming odd page unavailable the Paragraph may start will start on the next available text frame, even if this is on an even page. I would have assumed that the Paragraph would start on the next available odd page.

Imprimir folleto
Imprimir folleto "cosido" prepara las paginas para la encuadernacion cosida o acaballada, la previsualizacion es correcta. Pero al imprimir, desordena las paginas y el compaginado resultante es erroneo.
Nota: Probé tambien actualizando a la ultima versión de InDesign, pero sigue el mismo problema.1 vote -
Indesign CC 2018 crashes while selecting the type tool or font option from type menu
I am running Adobe InDesign CC 2018 13.0 x64. Whenever I open a new document and select the type tool, InDesign crashes. Same thing happens while clicking font option from type menu. Also, any premade INDD/INDT files aren't opening, it crashes every time. I have reinstalled several times, trashed preferences but of no use. I am running a Windows 10 version 1909 64 bit with OS built 18363.1801.

Bug: file conversion from newer ID version fails when done in a specific way
ID version: 17.1
System: Windows 10
Steps:
1. Double-click an INDD saved by a newer version of ID, perhaps 18, while ID isn't running yet.
2. ID will start, try to open the file and come ip with the conversion dialog. If you then click "Convert", it won't actually convert the file, but do nothing. In this case you would have to close the conversion window and while ID is now running, double-click the INDD again.1 vote -

Adobe Digital Editions opens links in unsupported version of Windows Explorer
InDesign ver. 18.2.1. ADE opens hyperlinks in Windows Explorer, which is retired and out of support. There doesn't seem to be a way to specify a different browser in which to open links. I am using the most recent version of ADE (4.5.11.187303).

Package-PDF and Export-PDF create different results
Mac OS Monterey 12.6 / Adobe InDesign 18.3
Function "Create Package" with a PDF and selected job.options (PDF Presets) creates PDF with wrong downsampling for images.
Function "Export PDF" with same PDF Preset creates PDF with expected quality
Why is there a difference?

INDD 2023 continuous crashes
It's happening very often that, while I'm working on some files (it happened with many different ones, not just the same one), INDD suddenly crashes with no explanation. I'm pretty bored about this thing so I hope you can say me something in order to solve it. I've a very powerful computer so I'm sure it's not something related to "GPU fatigue". Wish you a good day

Table of Contents does not generate correctly when styles are in a table
I ran into an issue with generating a Table of Contents when the Paragraph Styles it's told to look for are in the header rows of tables.
In my stripped down example of this bug, I have a series of Tables with header rows that have the Paragraph Style I set the Table of Contents to look for. It seems depending on if the table overflows and must continue on the next page, it won't always show up in the Table of Contents and it will get skipped over.
So in my example, Table 1 begins on Page 2 and…
