Indicator not selectable

Thank you. But I'm working with master pages. A few hours ago it was functioning; now the numbers of pages disappear and I cannot insert them anymore. I thought it was the new version, but nothing changed when I get back to the previous one. So, my problem still. I cannot select the indicator even if I follow the given suggestion

Page numbers are almost always created on a master page. Open up your Pages panel and observe what page you're on. Then look at the letter at the corner of your current page. In my example page 2 which has the A master page applied  because it shows an "A".

At the top of the Pages panel (above the line separating the master pages and the document pages), double-click on the A master page to view it. Here you can set the page number (it uses a "marker" to represent the page number):

It sounds like you're a beginner, and you should take advantage of some more information about how Master Pages work.
