Anyone?

When updating an index of an manual I made the following failure pops up:

 

"You have chosen a hidden destination which is already being used by a different hyperlink. A hidden destination cannot be shared by multiple hyperlinks."

 

In Dutch:

 

Really don's have a clue how to fix this....I already deleted unused hyperlinks, no result.

 

Help!

 

Thx, William

At the tenth version an ID file did not update the TOC: and the message appeared when updating or creating TOCs

Hyperlinks suddenly appear in red. And they lead just to captions, which are independent text frames.

I closed ID. I deleted cache folder. I made IDML versions, etc. I deleted the hyperlinks but unlinked them first. Everything was sudden and the list of figures and tables is about 300 pieces. A big calamity.

Mac / Ventura / 13.6 / IS 19.01

There was no radical change between a good and a bad version. Only minor adjustments.

Thanks
