I take it that it means that the problem started after upgrading to Sequoia.

Then that's probably the reason for the issue. Sequoia is too new. It's still too risky to upgrade to Sequoia on a working machine (plus, with all fairness, there isn't a single reason to do so anyway).

Try to revert to Sonoma one way or another. If you can create a separate partition on your drive, install Sonoma there and work from there. You can switch back to Sequoia when the problem is addressed.

You don't SAVE PDF files to InDesign. It sounds like you want to do File > Place to place it in an open InDesign file.
