InDesign won't save or undo - resetting preferences doesn't help (prob reoccurs shortly af

OK if this happens to you, click on your creative cloud icon at the top of your screen-it looks like a twisted pretzel. Then download the Indesign Update. I just did this and now I can save and undo-PRAISE THE LORD! I have a major project I am working on!

I hope this works for you too!!!

Yeah, same thing here

At seemingly random intervals InDesign loses the ability to UNDO. You also cannot UNDO after a save. Maybe every time InDesign does an autosave it is acting like it hard saved it, thus removing the ability to UNDO. So really they need to solve the UNDO after a save problem, then i think that will solve the new problem. Maybe.

Oh ya, sometimes text just disappears for no reason. All you have to do is zoom out and back in for it to reappear. Really though, how annoying is that?

This is all on top the fact that we are now paying a monthly tax to use the busted software. Not Cool.

It is a problem with a corrupted font. After nearly an entire day working remotely with my company's IT professional as well as doing my own research and trouble shooting, I realized that what was causing my file to go from a normal, saveable document was a shift to a certain font weight that did not actually exist anywhere on my computer. I suggest temporarily switching all of the text on your document to a standard font like Helvetica or Times and saving (it should work!), then changing back to the font(s) you were originally using section-by-section, saving with each change, and then when it freezes you will know which font caused the trouble. Then delete that sucker from your document and move on in peace!

Hope this helps.

I have been dealing with this issue for months! It happens more often each day. Today my ID goes into this mode after I move a single object on the page. I can't take this anymore. I worked on CS5.5, and installed the new CC, but it's happening in the new program as well. I've reset my preferences, I've restarted my comp. I've started fresh new documents.

And... it happened on my work computer CS5. (I used to think the deal was in my home computer) Now I think it's the InDesign. Maybe it's me, who's doing something wrong.

I've never felt so helpless with Adobe Program, this is the first time I can't find a solution.

Please help!

I have the same problem and the only way seems to manualy quit ID with system tools (cmd+alt+esc) After relaunching, the last docs are recoverd and for the most of the time only a few things are missing.

It is annoying and frustrating and I hope Adobe fix this problem soon...

Is it only with the keyboard shortcuts, have you tried using the Menu Items, I know it sounds simple and apologies if it's too simple, but are they grayed out in the Menus?

I only ask because it happens me periodically - I have to go to File>Save and then everything works as normal.

First is InDesign patched to 7.0.4?

Do you have any third party plugins? A font manager?

Does the problem persist if you create and use a new user account?
