This is really annoying but the small bar at the bottom of my swatch palette with the trash can has gone and I can't find it! Any ideas?

That's unusual behavior.

 

Resetting your application preferences to defaults shouls sort this out

 

Here's how you do it:

 

(Windows) Start InDesign, and then press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.

 

(Mac OS) While pressing Shift+Option+Command+Control, start InDesign. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.

Ususally it’s the caches that cause interface problems, so try deleting your caches folder before deleting the preferences. On OSX it's /Users/username/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign/Version X.0
