Hi!

I just changed my Macbook Pro, and installed inCopy 2020 (15.1.2) which I used in my old Macbook. The problem is that the text cursor disappeared from inCopy. I've tried to erase the incopy preferences, but it didn't work.

I'm using:

MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)

Chip Apple M1

8GB

macOS Big Sur 11.4

    There are all kinds of issues with M1 machines and you will not likely see any fixes in InCopy or InDesign 2020. You can try disabling GPU Performance if it exists in InCopy but beyond that, be aware that 16GB is the recommended minimum for RAM.

    Adobe is working on an M1 version of InDesign and InCopy 2021.

    Hi, I've updated to InCopy 20.0 version and the text cursor disappeared (only from InCopy, not InDesign). I reinstalled InCopy but it doesn't work. Impossible to write... How to fix?
