Latest update this morning didn't solve this headache of an issue, I've reset preffernces tried just about everything, including new doc, restart, ect does anyone have any ideas? All files types effected, when placing or relinking indesign just says no, spins wheel and then quits...

Correct answer Eugene Tyson

Is it just one file - or is it all files?

You said a new file - so I guess it is.

 

Besides resetting preferences, which you've already tried you can try

 

If a document is not behaving well then try 

File>Export 

Choose IDML

Open the IDML in InDesign
Save the file as a new InDesign file with a new name
See if the issue persists.

If it's still not working

Reinstalling rarely fixes everything - you can do a complete reinstall using the
