Unable to launch InDesign

I am unable to launch InDesign on my Macbook M1 pro 2021. I got all the latest updates and tried to restart and reinstall the app as well, but nothing seems to work. It only works once, right after reinstalling the app. What can I do? I attached a video with a screenrecording on what is happening when I try to launch.

Latest updates to what? Give us the specific version and builds for each. In the meantime, this was a known issue with Ventura versions and was fixed with the 13.5 update.

Sorry, Bob. Your fix-it-all does not work for everyone, including me. I am running the Ventura 13.1 version, which is not letting me do anything besides go to Sonoma. So, between Adobe and Apple, I'm not sure who is becoming the worst.

Did you even read my response above? If you're having issues updating Ventura you have a system issue that has nothing to do with InDesign and everything to do with Apple. Try one of their support forums for help on this.

InDesign version 19.0

Macbook is still running Ventura 13.1, so that might be the problem! I never got a notification of the new software update fot my mac so that's weird. But thanks! I'll go look for the mac update.
