InDesign 2021 does not open new or existing file when starting software program on a iMacPro 2012 laptop.
I have been trying to open a 2020 doc file in the 2021 version of InDesign. I am able to select the file and once I select it, nothing happens afterwards. Same thing occurs after I create a totally new document.

Tell (X,Y) values of specific table cells
When I have tables in a document, I often have to lay text boxes over specific cells to achieve my desired result and it would be helpful to have a way to know the specific (X,Y) values of each cell so that I can line the relevant text box up appropriately.

copy and paste. Text disappears from google docs to InDesign
Hello,
When I copy and paste from google docs to Adobe InDesign the text pastes in but then the page goes white and all the text disappears. If I click the text frame the words reappear and the text frame re-sizes and snaps down.I am currently on the latest version of Mac Big Sur and have updated to the latest version of Adobe InDesign of 16.3.2. Here are screenshots of the issue.

bug: start/end line not clickable in Indesign
Indesign 16.3.2, Apple Silicon M1 chip, MacBook Pro macOS Big Sur 11.5
I've discovered a bug. When I try to click on the option to add a start or end to a line, the option disappears directly. So it's not possible to click on one of the options. Right now I can't add a arrow to the end of my line. I hope it will be fixed really soon!

Spacebar/shiftkey issue after some time of using InDesign
If I want to use the spacebar to navigate through my documents, or if I want to zoom in/out with cmd+spacebar, I'm unable to use that function. Also the shiftkey doesn't work, after some time of using InDesign.
This problem is solved when I restart my Mac.
Is there any solution for this? I think this problem exists since the update to the silicon version of InDesign. I'm using a Mac mini with M1-chip.
Thanks for you help, Bastian

Indesign 16.3 cannot make package
we are having a problem using INDD ( 16.3.2 ) with ours Mac Pro late 2013 ( Bigsur 11.4 ) while we are creating the package.
So the process is going to infinite time and even we are force down the app we must pushing the power button of the Mac to switch off and after switch on.
On the Windos 10 the package is created without any problem.Update on 29/07/2021
I did the same test on a Mac Pro Book mid 2014 ( Catalina 10.15.3 ) : in this way I can make the package without any problem. …1 vote -

Indesign 16.3.2, Keyboard shortcut for preview (W) changes text appearance (from left justified to right justified) — but prints accurately.
Recent update to 16.3.2 — am working on an InDesign document that has a line of left-justified text.
1. When I use the keyboard shortcut "W" to view the document in Preview Mode (without boxes/positioning lines) the text jumps to the right hand side of the page.
2. When I click out of Preview mode (W again) it shows me the text where I placed it — left justified. I saved the document and reopened it and the bug is still there. When I make a pdf from it, or print the page, the line is correctly on the left.…1 vote -
export review comments
I previously used Adobe DC to send design proofs for review. I LOVE THE NEW InDesign option. Of course, it has a few bugs, but overall I love the UI right in Indesign.
However, I would like to export comments for my records and documentation. In case there is a discrepancy in a final product, I prefer to keep an archive of comments related to a project. I do not see a simple way to do this.

crash
InDesign version info attached (Mac OS 10.15.7).
I've been dealing with persistent crashing while trying to open ID files. For certain files, the beach ball of death appears for an extended (and sometimes endless) period, at which point I force-quit and open the file again. On the second attempt, the file always opens properly. This happens with most, not all, ID files — so I literally have to restart ID 30+ times a day. No fun.
I've reset preferences and even reinstalled ID from scratch, but no luck. One thing I noticed is that if I move the ID file…

Edge smoothing in Indesign 16.3.2 creates lines where there should be none!
Something that is extremely annoying and obstructive when designing. This was once different and better!
No matter if e.g. black or dark frames with white "narrow - narrow" outline or areas that cover others, hairlines appear everywhere where there shouldn't be any.
I don't know with which update this has crept in. But it nevt infinitely and it was no improvement.
The only way to get rid of these lines is to disable edge smoothing completely. But then you have a pixelated view with the charm of the 80s. So this is not an alternative either!

New Document UI Bug - Spec Tabbing
When creating a New Document...
After you type your Width and hit the tab button it should always toggle next to Height, NOT toggle to Units. This is a UI bug that has come and gone numerous times over the years. I can not conceive of any situation a designer who is working quickly would ever decide to adjust their Units after they have put in their Width specs.Please correct this.... again

CC2021: Alternate text for hyperlinks
I am reposting this from https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/38972206-cc2020-alternate-text-for-hyperlinks
Because despite Adobe's claim it is STILL NOT FIXED IN 2021 16.2.1
"In CC2020 a new function for writing alternate text for links was introduced.
Using this function and generating a PDF Leeds to wrong PDF notation. The alt text in PDF is presented by alt text, which is forbidden in the PDF world, where alt text only should be used for non text elements, e.g. pictures. By presenting only the alt text the accessibility is lost – this is against the goal to hav a better output!A correct output would lead to…
