Frustrated - lagging pointer
In order to get my mouse cursor to a legible size, I need to enlarge the cursor size in system preferences.
But I just determined with a tech support after 1 HOUR AND 20 MINUTES. That enlarging my cursor is causing lag in InDesign.
He said (paraphrasing), "It's your fault for not upgrading to Big Sur."
I said, "Well is OSX Mojave supported in InDesign 2021??"
He said, "Yes."
I said, "I want to report this as a bug."
He said, "Go to this bug support page."
I said, "No one has ever replied to me when I go to indesign.uservoice.com."
He said, "They will reply to you."
So that's why I'm reporting this here.
You give me no good options. Either I have to resize the cursor small in order to move it around in InDesign. Or else, I can see the cursor and it moves slow.
BTW, this bug does NOT happen in Illustrator, Photoshop, (nor in my other design programs) but only in InDesign!
This is below my expectations for this software. Disappointing.
You are the Forbes biggest growing company or whatever. Put some more money into fixing bugs, and your bug extermination squad.

Adobe PDF presets / exports not working in InDesign CC 2021 (v16.0)
This seems to be same or similar problem previously reported for CC2020 (v15.0) but reported as fixed in v15.1.3. -- Related bug report is here: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/39026392-pdf-export-in-indesign-cc-2020-15-0-is-broken#{toggle_previous_statuses}
Adobe PDF Presets initially worked in CC 2021 when first updated. (I don't know what version that was.) And they worked as recently as last week for me. Today however, none of the presets work, whether the original ones or custom presets I created. I went back to v15.1.3 and all the same presets work correctly.
I don't know if InDesign has had an incremental update, but this started happening after the most recent Creative Cloud update. I have experienced two types of errors: (1) Export seems to finish but an alert is given that export failed; (2) Export hangs up in the middle and just stops.
Here is a similar posting from another user:

Some spreads gone grey and only export as blank pages
I have an account report getting some problems. Some spreads have suddenly gone grey - as you see in screenshot. In the Pages panel they appear blank and when I export them - also blank. When I try to fix the page or add a new one the program unexpectedly quits.
I think this is an error from the file.1 vote -
Shortcuts 'Open' and 'New' not working when ID starts for the first time after quit
Key commands for 'Open' and 'New' are not working when InDesign starts for the first time after quit or restart.
However as a workaround I've discovered I can get things working again if I go to InDesign > Preferences > General and just click OK . For some reason that brings the functionality back.
Please provide a patch soon :)
I'm on ID 2021 version 16.0

Adobe indd 2021
The welcome page has a bug. The filenames are double. In addition to that, we do not get a notice anymore if somebody else is trying to open the same document. Really annoying. Hope you´ll be able to fix it.

Saving... way to define
With the version 16.0, InDesign doesn't find the way to the file when I save it. I have to define it every time, it is not very convenient.

Random pdfs displaying weird text placement
Since Adobe updated my InDesign to 2021, I have been having issues with fonts showing correctly in placed pdfs. Sometimes text will be completely removed. Other times text is displayed enlarged, upside down and reversed. It is not all pdfs. Sometimes it is just one page in a pdf that displays badly. Please fix this bug. It is very annoying when I'm trying to paginate and print files for clients.

Coloured background in text when using other language than English
I bought #288977103 and when I try to use any other language than US English, the text box is coloured with bright colour. Why?

Visibility of levels of embedded AI files are not kept
When I use an AI file with multiple layers, InDesign 2020 (v. 15.1.3) doesn't keep the right visibility of layers when I update the AI file. The same is true when I re-open the InDesign file.
Same for InDesign 2021 (v. 16.0)
Not sure if this also happens with multilayered PSD files, I didn't checked yet.
Tried to recreate the file from scratch, no way to solve the issue.The problem never occurred in previous version of InDesign.

But i can't really set the size i am looking for.

Page Size Changes- Sometimes don't work, sometimes bug, InDesign is as confused as I am.
I'm using InDesign 2021. I have been using the option at the bottom the Pages window ("edit page size") to change the size of my document from US Letter to A4 as I offer both sizes of printables in my shop. I noticed tonight that this sizing is being buggy. I went to change my Letter size doc to an A4 size, but A4 was already checked. The rulers confirmed my doc was in Letter. I then tried to change it, but no selections held from that menu. Finally, I just went to the "adjust layout" menu option and changed it that way.
Is this an InDesign bug, or some kind of user error? All my pages are consistent with one single master.

saving
When I create a new document and go to save, I do not get a save window. I have to close out the app and go back in for it to work. Sometimes I have to close out and go back in multiple times.

Quick export as pdf assume the last used options
When I use quick export I end up having all the same questions and options as going to file > Adobe pdf presets. So it is not much quicker.
I feel that the quick export should be a function that uses last setings and export immediatelly without further questions rather than the file location.1 vote
