PDF in indesign background how to do

I have just installed a new Indesign version, but I can no longer make PDFs in the background. I can't work at the same time as a PDF is being made.

Thank you for your help

Check for “DisableAsyncExports.txt” file in the same directory as the Adobe InDesign executable file:

PC/Win: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign **

Mac: /Applications/Adobe InDesign CS5.5/Adobe InDesign CS5.5.app/Contents/MacOS/

If the file exists - delete it and you'll get back background tasks.

Which version of InDesign and OS?

How much RAM and spare hard disk capacity do you have?

Exporting a PDF from InDesign shouldn't normally take very long – how long does it take you?
