InDesign CS3 Error

Hey everyone-

I have the Adobe Creative Suite CS3 running on a macOS High Sierra (10.13.2) and I'm having a problem with InDesign. I can get into Photoshop and Illustrator no problem. Also, the adobe updater opens up and immediately crashes so maybe it's not getting the updates it needs? Either way....

When I open up InDesign, the first dialog box where you can open up recent files or create new ones, is completely blank with just a gray screen. Then I tried to open up a document that's on my desktop and when I do, it opens up the same way with the gray screen but it's super tiny and I can't do anything with it.

Should I reinstall CS3 somehow? Has anyone ever heard of this?

Recent versions of Mac or Windows operating systems will not (or may not) support InDesign CS3, which is very old. What operating system are you running?

The OP says High Sierra. Have some more coffee.

The chances for running InDesign CS3 on that O/S are slim and none.

Didn't read carefully enough. Bob is totally right, High Sierra and CS3 are not compatible.
